after a straggle succeeded in eecar:ng

THE KAISER'S
PILGRIMAGE
Abdul Hamid Prepares for Emperor
William's Visit.
Berlin, Sept. 17. The approaching
visit of Enperor Willam to Tarky is
now arousing considerable interest. The
saltan is making extraordinary efforts to
please the emperor during the latter'a
stay at Constantinople. The palace in
teded for his reception is being fitted np
with laxury. Emperor Willam will stay
about 12 days at Constantinople.
Toe iurkish troops it is asserted, are
somewhat dissati-ficd on the enbject, as
their arrears of pay have been devoted
to the expense of Emperor William's
visit.
The preparations at Jerusalem for the
visit of Emperor William are in full
swing. Streets are being cut through the
city, and the regular mountains of rub
bish in the bazaar qoater have been re
moved. The garrison baa been espeuily
active in drilling, in order to impress
the emperor, though many of the sol
diers are baefooted and wear no uni
forms. .These soldiers, however, are to
receive new uniforms for the festivities
organized in honor of the visit of Em
peror William to the Holy Land.

; New Yobs, Sept. 19. A -dispatch to
the Herald from Santiago de Cnba says:
In regard to the story about the
trouble at Manzanillo, prior to the news
of peace, it is said the Cubans had cap
tared the small steam lannch Fernanda
in the harbor. One Cuban was killed
the next day, when the Spanish attempt
. ed to recapture the launch. The Fer
nando was taken by the Cubans to
uuamo, od mo vaato nver.a town wnicn
they were then occupying.
Salvador Bios, in command of the
Cubans, after the news of peace, hearing
that it was the intention of the Span
iards to march to Guaino for the pur
pose of bringing back the Fernando, in
formed the Spanish colonel in command
at Manzanillo that, notwithstanding the
suspension of hostilities, if any move
wag made an attack would be begun by
the entire force of Cubans. The Cubans
then began making preparations for the
"attack, and mined the entrance to the
Canto river. .
The Spanish commander gave no fur
ther intimation of a desire to disturb the
Cubans, but he refused to allow the
Cabana to come to town to purchase
food. - '
A government steamer went Sunday
night to bring back General Castillo and
hisetaff from Santa Cruz, whither they
had gone to confer with the Cuban pro
visional government. .

New York, Sept. 19. The following
dispatch has been received at the Asso
ciated Presa office :
"Manila, Sept. 19. The Filipino gov
ernment desires to inform the American
government and people that the many
rumors circulated regarding the strained
relations between the Filipinos and
American forces are bai,e, malicious
slanders of an enemy to both parties;
are without truth and are circulated for
the purpose of prejudicing the appeul
of the Filipino9 for release from the
opposition and cruelty of Spain..
"The relations of our people and yours
have been and will continue of the most
friendly nature, and we have withdrawn
our forces from the suburbs of Manila
as additional evidence of our confidence
in the great American republic.
"AGUINALTX)."
Washington, Sept. 19. The Associ
ated Press dispatch conveying Aguidal
do'e message to the American people
waa regarded with much intereet at the
White House. The president read the
statement with evident appreciation of
its importance, but did not volunteer
any information as to the attitude of
this government. , Officials near him
spoke of the message as a "very im
portant" document.

THE BOTKIN
MURDER CASE
Governor Budd Refuses Extradition on
the Charge.
If Troops at the Presidio Are Not
Housed During the Coming Winter,
a Large Increase in the Number of
Hospital Cases is Inevitable.
Sas Francisco, Sept. 10. While Gen
eral Miller, in charge of the Presidio
military post, is strongly in favor of
substituting substantial barracks for the
tents now in nse, he will not act in the
matter until the return of General Mer
men from Honolulu.
Without an express appropriation
from congress, nothing but temporary
structures can be erected for the bar
racks. But even those would be vastly
superior to the scant protection against
the elements which the tents afford. .
The necessity of more careful housing
of the troops during the coming winter
is made apparent by the increase in the
sick liet at Camp Merriam. There have
been nine cases reported at the division
field hospital, making 318 in all, as
againet 300 when the camp waa moved.
Among the new cases are two of measles
and one suspected typhoid fever case.
San Francisco, kept. 17 In sum
marizing the result of the hearing of the
Botkin case beio.e the governor. The
Examiner says:
"Mrs. Cordelia Botkin cannot be tried
for murder. Governor Budd has decided
while granting a two weeks' postpone
ment of formal action in this matter.
that the woman cannot be extradited
Delaware. The prosecution admits that
the murder trial cannot be undertaken
in this etate, as it was iu Delaware that
the murder was actually committed
The only thing can be done
charge Mrs. Botken with preparing
candy package and depositing it in the
mails. This offense is felony, and
punishable by a 10-year term in the state
prison. . "
There is no apparent way of gettingtbe
case before the enpreme ourton the ex
tradition question except by agreement
or unless the governor refuses to act at
all." -

dividual Responsibility. However, is
Not Fixed in the Report, the Board
Having Been Unable to Secure
the Guilty Soldiers.
San Francisco, Sept. 19 The board
of survey appointed to diecover the Ten
nessee volunteers responsible for the out
rage on the Thomas family, has ninde its
report to General Miller,
The board reports that it has bet n un
able to discover the names of any of tne
participants in the riot, except those of
the four Teneeseeans who have been
tried already by court-martial Ander
son, Davis, Clark end Scrnggs.
In the report, the board states its be
lief that members of the Kansas, New
York and Iowa regiments, and the Call-
rfornia heavy artillery were a part of the
mob, but that the greater part of it was
from Tennessee.
There is no evidence to show that in
nry to the property of the Thomases
waa caused by any other than the Ten

that most of the members of the other
commands that Joined themselves to the
