RETURNING TROOPS IO BE WELCOMED HOME BY THE PRESIDENT. McKinley Will Make a Trip to the West to Greet the Volunteers—How Gomez's Refusal to Assist In Distributing Funds to Cubans Is \ iewed. Hot Springs, Va., May 10. —It is the intention of President McKinley to be , in the western states at the time of the [ return of the volunteers who have done l heroic service in the Philippines. It is | expected that the necessity for the retention of volunteers in the island of Luzon will not exist much longer, and when the volunteers reach their native states for muster out Mr. McKinley hopes to be there to greet and honor | them. If the trip to the west already | planned should not occur when the vol- • unteers are returning, another journey j will be made to carry out this purpose. ' The war department yesterday for- ; warded here advices from General Otis | stating that there now remain in the Philippines 2,000 Spanish soldiers who must be returned to their homes by the United States, in accordance with the terms of the treaty of peace. Informa- I tiou also was received of the situation in . Cuba. General Gomez, it is said here, is con- ! sidered insincere in his dealings, and ■ nothing unfavorable or disconcerting! was announced. Yesterday afternoon a number of the colored employes of the hotel entertained Mr. and Mrs. McKinley with an impromptu concert in the president’s apartments. A quartette sang, banjos were played and there was some old Virginia darky dancing. GEN. GOMEZ’S ACTION In Refusing to Aid In Distributing i Funds to Cubans Not Surprising. Washington, May 16.— War officials ' were reluctant to discuss the Cuban situation yesterday afternoon. The dis- : patch announcing that General Gomez had decided to withdraw from participa- I tiou in the distribution of the 13,000,100 ! to Cuban soldiers was read with interest, but did not cause much surprise among army officers who are well in- ( formed about the Cubans, especially [ those who are known as “Soldiers of . fortune," and who have been bitterly | disappointed because the island was not turned over to them immediately after ' the Spanish surrender. There is an impression also that the intention of General Brooke to see that the $3,000,000 are distributed among the troops has caused disappointment among the many generals and other high officers, who | were evidently expecting to secure a large share of the money. The belief was expressed that the situation in Cuba is serious and that care- | ful and diplomatic management will be I needed. It was stated that no orders 1 would be issued to General Brooke, as he had ample authority to deal with any situation which might arise. There | seems to be a belief that General Gomez I has contributed to the delay in thegiay- ! meat of the money. General Brooke Will Proceed on a New Plan to Pay the Cubans. Havana, May 16.—General Maximo ! Gomez yesterday informed Governor' General Brooke that he must withdraw ! from the plan for distributing the $3,000,000 appropriated to the payment of 1 the Cuban troops to the extent that he will not name other commissioners to replace those originally named by him, who have refused to serve. Governor General Brooke is to go , ahead with a new plan, Gomez remain- | ing in an attitude of friendly inactivity, i General Brooke will issue an order for 1 Cuban privates and noncommissioned officers to meet at specified places on specified dates to receive payment They are to be accompanied by their company officers for the purpose of identification. Both General Gomez and the governor general feel that the privates ought not to lose their share in the American gratuity merely because the schemes of certain high officers in the Cuban army have interposed obstacles. ' The belief among the Americans is that the company officers will assist in this way. General Brooke’s order will be disseminated through the newspapers, placarded in the postoffices and given the widest circulation practicable. Otis’ Cablegram. Washington, May 14.—The war department yesterday received the following dispatch from General Otis at Manila: “It is reported that at Zamboanga insurgents attacked Spanish troops on the 11th inst., using quick firing guns and arms captured from Spanish gunboats. Spanish general and two officers wounded. Few casualties among the troops. Spanish garrison now besieged. Water supply cut off and troops calling for relief. ”

AFFAIRS AT MANILA — THE FILIPINOS WANT ANOTHER PEACE CONFERENCE. Suggestion Believed to Be the Result of the Recent Meeting of the Insurgents’ Congress at San Isidor. Farewell to Dewey. Manila. May 15.—The civilian mem- ; bers of the United States Philippine commission are favorable to the meeting with a Filipino commission, which was suggested Saturday on behalf of Again- [ j aldo, by Lieutenant Reijes of the staff j of General Gregorio Del Pilar, who ' came to General Lawton under a flag of truce, bearing the proposal. It is thought by the American commissioners that the idea may have resulted from a recent meeting of the socalled Filipino congress at San Isidor. Definite information on this point, however, cannot yet be obtained, though the local Filipino committee, which is in close communica- | tion with the leaders of the rebellion, is doing its utmost to secure peace. Ten members of Major General Lawton’s band of scouts, under William ! Young, the old Indian fighter, entered j the town of San Miguel, about 15 miles | north of Norseagarav, not aware of . what place it was. They found 200 Fili- | pinos there, but the rebels, taking the scouts for the advance of General Lawton’s army, fled, after firing a few shots. Young and another scout were wounded, and have been brought to Manila. The Ninth infantry and a mountain battery of six guns have been sent to the front. The uniform quiet now prevailing in . ' Manila has led the authorities to relax ! the rule under which the city streets were cleared from 7 to 8:30 p. m., and | last, evening there was the largest and 1 most brilliant assembly of pedestrians I and people in carriages to listen to a ; band concert on the Luneta that has ! been known here since the Spaniards j left. Professor Schurmau, president of the United States’ Philippine commission, gave a farewell luncheor. yesterday to I Admiral Dewey, at which Professor Dean C. Worcester and Colonel Charles Denby of the commission, with General I MacArthur, Mrs. Lawton and others : were present. The health of the adj miral was drunk with the utmost cor- ! dialty. KENTUCKY BANK TAX LAW Decision of United States Supreme Court on Its Effect. Washington, May 16. —In the United | States supreme court yesterday Justices I Peckham and White handed down opinI ions in 36 cases involving the bank tax j law of Kentucky. The cases did not deal with the tax direct, but with a j stipulation made by the city attorney of ' Louisville, which the banks claimed rendered their cases res adjudicata. The court held it was beyond the attorney’s power to make a stipulation that would j be binding, and hence the contention of res adjudicata was not well founded. , ANTITRUST MEETING Governor Sayers of Texas Will Call a ' National Convention. Houston, May 16.—Governor Sayers | has given out the information that as soon as the legislature adjourns he will address a letter to the governors of all the states asking a meeting at some suitable time and place with their attorneys general for the purpose of considering and agreeing upon an effective j anti-trust law to be presented to the : different legislatures. In the meantime I he will insist upon the legislature enactI ing such a law at the present session. Chicago Drainage Canal. Chicago, May 16. —It was announced I here yesterday that St. Louis citizens i will protest to congress against Secretary Alger’s permission to open the I Chicago drainage canal, if an extra session should be called before the time set ! for opening the big ditch. It was also discovered that the channel cannot be 1 sufficiently finished this year to carry , I 300,000 cubic feet of water per minute, required by law. This may delay the I opening for another year, for if Gov- { eruor Tanner wishes he can refuse to ' grant permission to turn the water into the canal. Shot by a Woman. Lostine, Ore., May 16.—Hon. John A. Hunter, one of the most prominent men in Wallowa county, was shot and instantly killed by Mrs. C. R. Elliott, a ! neighbor, who then committed suicide : by taking poison. There has been a ■ I feud of long standing over family affairs between the Hunters and Elliotts, whose ! families are intermarried, a son of the | murdered man having married a daughter of Mrs. Elliott. Cleveland Still Fishing. Toledo, May 16.—Ex-President Cleveland, who is now on a fishing trip to Middle Bass, will be the guest of honor at the formal layihg of the cornerstone of the courthouse at Port Clinton on Thursday. Mr. Cleveland will not speak, but has consented to be present He expects to be on Lake Erie fishing at least two more weeks and will probably remain at Middle Bass during the entire ! time. Killed by Enraged Countrymen. Bridgeport, Conn., May 15.—An Ital- ' ian named O. H. Minotte was killed here last night by some of his enraged countrymen for outraging the 5-year-old daughter of an Italian couple named 1 Fonderelle, residing in the Italian quar--1 I ter of the citv. ■ | Granted a License. > New York, May 16.—The police board yesterday granted a license to the Conev Island Sporting club. The granting of t the license will allow the Jeffreys-Fitz-I simmor.s match to come off there.

The apellate court of Indiana has : rendered an opinion that a man may i give away liquor as an act of hospital ■ ity without violating the law. The | decision was made in the case of William B. Austin, an attorney of Rensselaer, who treated the callers at his office on Yew Year’s day. 1898, to . champagne. He was arrested, charged with giving liquor on a holiday, was j fined and appealed the case. A Narrow Escape. Thankful words written by Mrs. I Ada E. Hart, of Groton. S.
