After juettliiK poseaon of the notes found up joti the body o Doty, I left with James jlitiik for the place where he was found, j which was reached alout S.'M p. tn. Sun. I day. We backtracked 1'oty'a trail three, j quarters of mile and found whi te ho had siriii k the Nchaletii trull and token ItO the wonls. We followed his track un tll nlKhl overtook us, when we vamped until daylight, und testiiiied the trail this morning. At 9:15 we came uikiii the j bodies of llcikmati and Ruder, and saw 'from their tracks where Doty hud I craw led on his hands and feet, presum. 'ably exhausted, while muklnej his way out. "The bodies of Helknvan and Rader lay aide ! side 'In an open place, where they had apparently fallen and died. They were covered with boughs, presum. ably by Doty, and lay on their backs Rnder's head being toward Heikman's feet. Heikman's body was partly un. dressed and his appearance Indicated ithnt he must have died in great agony. Mailer's posture was more composed and his death whs probaibly easy. Nothing was found on either of the bodies no surveyor's Instruments, grub nor any. thing. After discovering the bodies we all left for Seaside, except Mr. Burke, I who remained to continue the search for Clout rle, the guide, whose body I thinlf will be 'found close by. "My opinion Is that Cloutrle got hurt In sonio way and they nil stayed with him until he died, meantime exhausting all their provisions, matches, etc. After Oloutrle's death, they evidently t? lost and wandered about seeking to re cover their bearings. Whether the sup. position that the death of any or all of the party was due to poisoning rrotn canned meats or other edibles or not there was nothing In tlulr surroundings to indicate. Cloutrle was one of the most practical woodsmen in this section of country. According to the notes found on Doty's .ody the party had finished Its work and was on the way way out.

WASJirNVJTON, April .-Tha prU dent haa received a letter from John T.

(hHI.ANS tTTKRANCES CRITICISED IN KNGLAND. Itrltlsh I'reM Regard HU Remarks as Indiscreet and Afprove of the Rebuke Adnfltilstej-ed. LOMmiX, April 34.-The morning pa. pera unanimously denounce the cabled utterances of Captain C'ghlan, of the I nlted States cruiser Rulelga. regard Ing the relations between Admiral Dewey anj the German commander at Manila as 'Indiscretions and violations of good mant.ers." Most of them erpres the Hnln that Germany will treat the in. ildent with dignified alienee. The Standard says: "While Agulnaldo orpes the United States, it la not for an Individual Amert. can to ofTer an Insult to other nation, alltles." The Daily Newa and the Dally Mall nevertheless accept Captain Coghlan's statement as the true version of Ger. many' altitude at that time. The Times says: The promptitude and severity of the reibuke administered to Captain Coh. jlan and the approval It meets from pub. its otanton are remarkable signs of the great change wrought In America by the events of the last year. There have been times, even recently, when It Is more than doubtful If such an offense would have !een thus punished. War and the wide responsibilities It has entailed, seems suddenly to have raised the nation to a truer conception of the dignity of the country. This ex ample of dlgnjlled self respect should, be a lesson to the chauvinist press of continental monarchy, which particularly possesses a stickler for diplomatic e;l queue.

SAN FRANCISCO. April 24.-The Ex aminer Hils morning says that Just as he started for Is Angeles, Governor Gage was asked what he thought of the appolntement of Matthew S. Quay as senator from Pennsylvania ty Governor Stone of that state. "I don t know Quay, and I don't know Stone." he ald, "but if your question hus anything to do with the senatorshlp from California, all I've got to say I- that I've already appointed Dan Burns as United States senator to succeed Ste. phen M. White. His commission has not yet been made out: that is all." The governor would not say when the commission to Colonel Burns would be Issued. He refused to discuss the right Of Governor Stone to appoint Quay senator. He left the Impression, however, that If Quay Is seated by the senate he will at once Issue a commission to D. M. Burns.
