Preparations for Inauguration of Civil Governor of Tuerto Rleo on a Large Scale. NEW TORK, April 1S.-A special to the Tribune from Washington says: Yesterday's long cabinet meeting was chiefly devoted to considering the In auguration of the civil government In Puerto Rico on May 1. under the new statutes. It has been decided that the people of the Islands with their natural fondness for pomp and display shall be sufficiently Impressed with the Im portance of the new establishment by the visit of the entire North Atlantic squadron. On th- day of the inauguration Gen eral Davis, the retiring military gov ernor, will assemble yearly all the troops of his department at the capital and rarade them In honor of the occa sion. Each of the ships will fire a gov ernor s salute of seventeen guns to be returned In kind by the forts ashore. At nlsht there win be a brilliant il lumination of the ships, with their masts lined with electric lights and an exhibition of searchlights. The naval display wll be made all the more mem orable from the fact that the day will be the anniversary of the battle of Manila bay. Governor Allen will spend a week at least at San Juan before his formal inauguration and in' that time It is expected that he will be able to form a correct estimate of the qualifications of leading natives for places In the executive council, which constitutes the upper house of the legislative as sembly and be in a position to make recommendations to the president re garding appointments. It Is the Impression- among- cabinet officers that most of the men now holding office in General Davis'" military cabinet ex cept the United States army officers will be continued In executive council either In their present places or similar office under different titles. The president and all the members of his cabinet are anxious that the council shall be composed of natives as far as possible and desire to avoid all semblance of fastening any "carpet bag" rule on the island. It will be the effort of the preslJent, largely on Governor Allen's recom mendation, first to complete the exe cutive of the island and to provide for the organization of the Judiciary. The established courts of the island, in cluding the supreme court of Puerto Rico, will continue to sit as now con stituted. Residents of the United States will be selected as Judge, district at torney and marshal of the United States, which will be established In a few weeks at San Juan. It Is also settled that General Davis will remain in Puerto Rica and that Governor Allen will have the advantage of his experience and assistance. The brigade of troops, consisting of cavalry and Infantry regiments of regulars, the Puerto Rican native regiment and two batteries of artillery will continue to constitute General Davis' command which will thus be as important, so far as number of troops is concerned, as ' any of the military departments In the United States. All military authority after May 1, will, however, be subordinated to the civil authorities and the war depart ment will cease to exercise any more control over Puerto Rico than it does now over Arizona. CANAL TO BE PUSHED. Friends of the Hepburn Nlcaraguan Bill Hope to Rush It Through This Session. NEW YORK April 18. A special to the Tribune from Washington says: Chairman Hepburn, of the committee on Interstate commerce, and other rep resentatives who favor immediate leg islation for the immediate construc tion of the Nicaragua canal, have be come impatient on what they regard as unreasonable delay and they are threatening to make the situation in teresting as well jm "Unpleasant for those who they believe are exerting Black Crepons SWELL DRESS MATERIALS New Effects at reduced prices.

The preliminary report of the Walker com mission has not yet been made and submitted to congress, and probably mill notte for some time to come. Vexed by the delay and untoward prospect, the advocates of the Hep burn bill are trying to force Its con sideration and passage by the house at this session. Chairman Hepburn has already obtained an Imposing array of signatures to a paper requesting the committee on rules to bring In a special order providing for the consideration of the bill at an early date 'specified and for a vote on the bill and all amendments thereto on a day and an hour also to be specified. He Is confident that such an order would be adopted by an overwhelming majority and there is every reason to believe that his confidence Is Justified. There is equally good reason to be lieve that the bill would pass the house as reported by the committee by a large majority. RUSSIA NOT FEARED. Unlikely That She Will Make Any Trouble for England at Present. NEW YORK, April IS. A dispatch to the Tribune from London says: The vacuum created by the shrink age of war news Is filled with dis patches far afield and with political rumors and gossip. The Times publishes the text of a letter from the Ameer of Afghanistan commenting upon British Indifference to Russian aggression and conveying the significant hint to the Indian gov ernment that the present is the time for deeds, not for talk. The thoroughly entertained opinion In diplomatic circles is that Russia will not take advantage of the British sit uation In South Africa, but will wait until the end of the war, or until the time comes for the dlvlson of Portu guese territory In South Africa be tween Germany and England. Russia will thf-n offset the British and Ger man galnj in this territory by ordering an advance on Herat and by strength ening h".T grip upon Persia. Berlin dispatches disclose the unwil lingness of the German government to receive the Boer peace delegates. DISTINGUISHED GATHERING.

White CHICAGO, April 13.-Terry McGov- ern, who was unalilc to put out Tom my White In a six-round bout last niRht, said: "I am disappointed In not gettlnor a knockout which to me almost neemed certain before the contest. I give White alp the credit In the world for staying trie limit, as I fully counted on putting him away. I gave away ten pounds to meet htm, and, of course, the weight counted In his favor. I thought I had him going In the first round, but Ms clinching kept me from doing my most effective work. "White wan constantly getting In S hugging and had my neck In many a tight sq'jecie. He persisted In holding on and had he stood up all the time for clean hitting there Is no doubt but that I would have put him away. I am will ing to meet him again, and at any time or place." Tommy White said: "Terry Is an awful hard fighter and never lots up. In the first three rounds I fought purely on the defensive and kept MoGovorn off as much as possible. After a rest I am perfectly willing to meet him again." THE JUDGMENT REVISED. Labor Leader Falls to Make His Libel Stick Against a New York Paper. NEW YORK. April lS.-The Socialis tic co-operative association, publisher of the New York Volks Zettung, has secured from the appellate tribunal of the supreme court a reversal of the Judgment awarded against it to Samuel Prince, a labor leader w ho claimed to be damaged by the publication In the Volks Zettung of an alleged libelous letter, addressed to the member of the clgarmakers International union. In this letter his manner of conducting business was criticized and he was called a "tenement house boss," and a "miserable Bcab." Justice Beekman, of the appellate tribunal, referred to the f.Kt that testi mony was given on the trial as to the significance of the word 'scab" as indi cating a person who was an outcast to be shunned by his fellows. It was unnecessary, he said, to have recourse to evidence of that description. The term was one of ancient origin In Its application to persons of Ill-repute, meaning "paltry or shallow fellow." "It was entirely free from doubt," the court said, "that the publication was libelous per se. The reversal was ordered, mainly be cause of the Improper admission in evi dence on the part of the plaintiff of the report of a committee favorable to him in reference to certain charges. JESSUP EXPEDITION SAILED. Going to Siberia to Investigate the Origin of the North Ameri can Indian. SAN FRANCISCO. April IS. Three scientists, comprising the Jessup expe dition sent cut by the American mu seum of natural history of New York to explore the unknown portions of Northwestern Siberia, have sailed from this city. They are Norman C. Bux ton, an American and two Russians, Waldemar Gogaras and Waldemar Jackelson. One object of their trip will be to determine whether or not the American Indian U descended from Asiatic stock. The Russians will touch mainly upon the ethnological phase, studying the native language and songs, customs and physical characteristics of almost every tribe that Inhabits the north eastern section of Siberia. Buxton will confine his work mainly to the zoological field, toward making a new and rare collection of birds and mammals for the big museum In Cen tral park. They expect 'to be gone for at least two years. STEAMER LAKEME LIBELED. SEATTLE, April 18.
