NEW COMPLICA
TIONS ABE ARISING
The Austrian Minister Is Sus
peeted of Duplicity.
THOUGHT TO BE
' ACTING AS
A SPY
He Will Probably Be Given His Pas
ports Soon.
Washington. May 28. Serious
complications have arisen the past few
days that may yet result in a breech of
relations between this government
and Austria. It is rumored that the
' Austrian minister at Washington is
acting1 as a Spanish spy, and is keep
ins the Spanish government in'ormed
as to the movement of the American
forces to the detriment oi tins coun
try.
It is not improbable that the Aus
trian minister will be given his pa
ports and that the American minister
to Vienna will oe recalled, inis
would result in an open repute be'
tween the governments and. would, no
doubt, provoke war. Wnat the out
come of the complication will be, no
one can at present foretell.
WILD COME
OUT
OP
HIDING.
CerveraWill Appear When the Time
is Ripe.
Madrid, May 28. Private advices
from Consul-General Blauco say 30
vessels were sighted off Cardenas yes
terday, hovering around the coast. It
further says that Ceryera's fleet will
come out of its retreat as soon as the
Cadiz squadron arrives in Cuban
waters. No intimation is given as to
the whereaoouts of Cervera, but the
impression is that he is not at the
mercy of Schley's fleet. It is intimat
ed that he will strike a blow where it
is least expected.
WHERE IS
CEVERA'S FLEET?
Report That He Is Bottled up at San
tiago Is Not Fully Credited.
Washington, May 28. Recent ad
vices from Madrid lead to toe belief
here that Cervera's fleet is not inside
the harbor at Santiago, but that it is
at some other point in hiding, waiting
for reinforcenesi 'i'frOrri '.' Cadiz;
Schley has nBSjtated officially t'hatr
Cervera was Inside - the' harbor, and it
is believed by. many that Commodore
is at a loss to locate the enemy's fleet.
Lack of knowledge of the whereabouts
of the Spanish fleet causes considerable
uneasinees in official circles, that it
will suddenly appear at some unex
pected time and place.
ENTIRELY . TOO ZEALOUS
A Portland Boy Kills His Companion
While Playing Soldier.
Portland, May 28. While a lot of
boys were playing soldier about 5
o'clock yesterday afternoon, a most
lamentable accident occurred, result
ing in the death of Lloyd Vaughn,
aged 11 years. Herbert Ward, aged
14, had a gun, and in the excitement

killing him almost itistantly.
INSURGENTS ARE
READY TO ACT.
They Will Move on Manila When
Dewey is Ready,
Washington. May 28. A special
from Hong Kong states that word has
been received from Dewey that the
Philippine insurgents are anxious to
oioye on Manila. They have offered
to march on the city with a force 40,
000 strong whenever Dewey is ready
to attack the city from the sea. The
insurgents are anxious to wreak ven
geance upon their Spanish oppressors.
The Climate U Telling on Them.
Washington, May 28. ecretary
Long has received word from Dewey
that two naval officers and, a number
of sailors belonging to his command
are seriously ill. The climate of the
Phillippines together with the inactive

the sailor a.

INDIAN DIVORCES.
Summary Proceedings of tho Dis
satisfied Married Brave. ,
Mit Ceremony Used In Casting;
OS
th Galling Yoke Which Binds
Bim to HI Objection,
able 8qaaw.
With most of the plains Indians mar
riage consists eimply in picking out the
maiden, leading her to a cabin or wig
wam, and installing her as mistress of
the house and cornfield, sometimes with
the necessary preliminary of paying the
father a pony or two or an installment
of blankets, and occasionally with some
slight ceremony performed by chief or
medicine man. And when the brave
grows tired of his partner he can get
rid of her as easily as he won her.
The people who are now flocking to
the Dakota s or Oklahoma to get di
vorces would be supremely happy if
they could throw off the galling bonds
of wedlock as easily as does the reserva
tion Indian. The fact having been for
mally announced by the head man of
the clan, the divorce takes place when
the tribe is gathered at a dance. When
all are assembled and the circle formed,
the discontented warrior strikes a -Jrum
used by the revellers, (gives away a few
presents (of ttimes making a present to
. the squaw he intends to take next), and
then, in a short, bombastic speech, he
stigmatizes his wife by giving her over
to the tender mercies of other braves,
while they look upon him enviously and
consider that he has performed an act
of bravery in his desertion.
Often as many as half a dozen di
vorces are thus obtained at a single
dance; no tedious waiting, no courts,
no lawyers, and no trouble about ali
mony or the custody of the children.
And the squaws thus cast off as a gener
al thing seem to take it as a matter of
course, and before the close of the -lance
are using the wiles known and used by
the women of the world over in an ef
fort to repair as speedily as possible
the break in their hearts and matrimo
nial experience.
With the taking of land in severalty
and putting on of citizenship, however,
the Indian finds that he has cemented
the ties that were so loose before, for
the counts everywhere are deciding that
the tribal marriages are legal and bind
ing upon the Indian who becomes a cit
izen. And if the weight of one legal
marriage wears somewhat heavily upon
a white man, how must it be with the
red man who has contracted two, three,
four, or even more alliances which the
count now declares legal and at the
same time takes away his former av
enue of relief?
The first court divorces ever given
any member of the southwest reserva
tion tribes was granted in the district
court at El Reno several weeks ago.
The fair plaintiff in the case was a full
blooded Kiowa girl, whose name was
something like Beahl Koo, hut perhaps,
it had never before been so reduced to
writing until it appeared upon the rec
ord 9 of the court, She was totally un
familiar with the English language, and
it was necessary to tell her troubles by
the aid of an interpreter, butithe trouble
was to find some one that could inter
pret the weird dialect of Eiowa. Judge
Jack Stillwell, the ex-scout, was pres
ent, and, although quite familiar with
the Comanche tongue, he was com
pelled to confess that he could not
handle Kiowa. A way was soon found
whereby she could tell her tale of woe
to Judge Burford. Caddie Konkle,
(Black Crane), a leading member of the
Kiowa tribe, and a very intelligent man,
was present, and while he could not
talk English, he could speak Kiowa,
and interpret it into Comanche, and
Judge Stillwell then interpreted it into
English. She stated that she was not
quite 16 years of age, and that she had
beers married to a white man named
King for three years, but that he had
left her over two years ago, and that
she was now living with her parents.
After hearing all the facts the court
granted her privilege to .assume her
maiden, name, or any other name she
saw fit.
At the next term of the district court
at Tologo, D county, however, will be
presented an application for divorce,
the like of which is without a parallel,
and the judge and attorney will look
in vain for precedent decisions in all
the law reports extant
Yellow Bonnet, a Cheyenne Indian of
some note, living on his allotment near
this city, has applied for a blanket di-.
vorce from four wives.. Yellow Bonnet
gives as his reason for such a sweep
ing divorce that he has embraced the
Christian religion, and his wives havs
refused to become Christians, St, Ixul

Tampa, Fla., May 31. Ten thous
and troops went on board transports
last night and disappeared in the dark
ness of the night, and 10,000 more em
barked today.
Officers maintain the strictest
secrecy about their destination and
flatly refuse to give out any informa
tion whatever of the intention of the
department or where the army has
been ordered.
It is generally believed the troops
were sent to Cuba and that a landing
will be effected at some point on the
northern coast of Cuba tonight.
SAGASTA'S
TIME HAS COME.
He Cannot Much Longer Hold Sway
in Spain.
Madrid, May 31. Dissatisfaction
with Sagasta's government is general
throughout the Kingdom. Complaint
against him is heard on every hand,
and it is only a question of time when
he will Deforced to dissolve bis cabi
net or be removed by a revolution.
People are clamoring for bread
throughout the nation, and many of
the ooorer class are already .tarving.
Riot is reported throughout the na
tion, and a general uprising is feared.
It is hardly possible that Sagasta will
be able to maintain .the government
much longer. The masses demand a
putting down of the rebellion in Cuba
and the Philippines, and blame Sa
gasta for not having suppressed the
rebellions sooner.
