Roosevelt Orders Cruiser Dea Moines
to Cuban Capital.
Washington, Sept. 12. It was offi
cially admitted today that the Ameri
can cruiser Des Moines, which sailed
yesterday hastily from Norfolk, had
gone southward to Key West with the
Itimate Intention of proceeding to Ha
vana if developments within the next
two days seem to warrant such action.
At Key West the Des Moines will be
bout eight hours run from Havana
nd, white waiting, Commander Hal-
sey will be In close communication
with the Navy department, prepared to
carry out immediately any request from
the State department.
There is no Intention in this move
ment ot tne JJes Moines to snow par
tiality toward one aide or tha other in
the piesent conflict in Cuba. The ship
will be at Havana to serve as an asy
lum in case of need, and be at the dis
position of the American charge.
In case the United States govern
ment finds it necessary to intervene in
Cuban affairs under the provisions of
the Piatt amendment, forces which
would have to be used for that purpose
would be found in a much better state
of preparation than when hostilities
began between the United States and
Spain. The long military occupation
of Cuba by the United States troops
afforded an opportunity to army officers
to become familiar with the island,
and probably uo part of the earth is
better known to the military autbori
tiea of the United States than the is
land of Cuba. In addition to the fa
miliarity of the army officeer with the
geography and general conditions of
Cuba, all ot the supply departments
ara better equipped.

another proclamation calling attention
to the distressing state of affaire in
Valparaiso and asking for contribu

bava not been heard from.
Great Reception for Root.

General Reyes, president of Colombia,
baa arrived here to take charge of the
arrangements for the reception of Sec
retary Root. Mr. Root will be pressed
to land and spend several days. John
Barrett, United States minister, is also
nere. The populace is enthusiatsic,
the belief being current that Secretary
Root's visit will presage the coming of
entente cordials between Colombia and
Panama, who bava been estranged
since the revolution of Panama in
1902.
Must Sea Meat la Labeled.
Washington, Sept. 12. A number of
representatives ot railroads met at the
Department of Agriculture today and
conferred with the secretary regarding
the duties Imposed upon them by the
new meat inspection law. They were
shown samples of the labels, which
will be required to be placed on various
meat products, and were given to un
derstand that before they accept con
signments of meat for interstate ship
ment eee thst proper labels are attached.

bystander waa killed and one ot the
robbers, fearing capture, committed
suicide.
Governor of Seidllce, Ruasia, Turna
Cannon on Tarroriatt.
St. Petersburg, Sept. 11. Advices
from Seidlce received during the night
are to the effect that fighting and bom
barding of bouses, which ceased about
midday on Monday, was resumed late
in the afternoon, apparently in conse
quence of Governor Engelke'i demand
that the Jewish and Polish populace
deliver np to him the members of the
Jewish Self Defense association. The
bund refused this, preferring death in
the open to a tame surrender, and re
sumed the battle. Artillery was again
brought into action, but it is not known
if the fighting still continues.
It is impossible to obtain full details
of the events at Seidlce, as the authori
ties absolutely forbid communication
and turn back all correspondents. The
Associated Press correspondent at War
saw, after several times vainlv enHM.

At Rudgusowska, 40 miles east of
Warsaw, which is the aite ot the great
Hyxraaow mills, conditions similar to
those at Seidlce were witnessed. The
soldiers are said to have killed 40 persons.
Fugetives from Seidlce report that
Governor Engelke issued an ultimatum
declaring that he would bombard the
whole town unless the terrorists sur
rendered. In consequence of the pillage
and destruction, the peaiants are suf
fering for food and water.
A telegram received here late last
night from Seidlce, from a resident who
succeeded in smuggling it through the
censorsnip, says ttiat pillaging com
menced Saturday night instead of Sun
day, and after a few minutes filing in
Warsaw street the soldiers broke into
gin shops, became drunk and then en
tered indiscriminately the apartmenti
of houses of all classes, killing, pillag
ing and committing under cover of the
walls tha moat heinous crimes. The
number of victims is unknown, but it
is placed at 100. Most of the to pses

ANFLOOS KNOWS NO SULTAN.
Barber Chief Gives Short Reply to
British Consul's Protest.
London, Sept. 11. The Times' Tan
gier correspondent isyt there is consid
erable anxiety at ths foreign legations
and in official circles regarding the
events at Mogador, from which there
baa been no newi lince the dispatch of
September 4, atking for assistance,
were received.
The troops wars only persuaded to
embark from hers," the correspondent
declares, "by promises of an opportun
ity for deserting 00 their arrival at Mo
gador.
"A resident of Mogador, who arrived
here by steamer, says that the Berber
Chief Anflooa baa captured the town,
has forced all tbs Jews into the Jewish
quarter and is patting his own people
into the vacant houses. One British
subject protected s Jewish merchant,
who had refused to abandon his house
and had been forcibly evicted. When
the consul protested and asked Anfloos
if he had the aullan'a authority, An
flooa replied tbtl be acknowledged no
sultan. This piawnger reports that
the entire garrison of Mogador went to
Anfloos, but Uiil apparently no lives
uwi Men lost.--) - "
The fact that other leaders of the in
surgent forces are willing to agree to an
armistice can have little effect so long
as Guerrera is determined to prosecute
tba war, and there la slight doubt in
any quarter that Guerrera can control
the situation in his own region. His
force is reported by all. those who have
visited him recently aa ranging from
3,000 to 4,000 men, al) of them well
mounted and some of tbem well and
o'.he-s indifferently armed. The gov
ernment force opposed to him, which is
under command of Colonel Avaloc,
comprises about 1,000 men. It waa re
inforced at 7 o'clock this evening by
Lieutenant Colonel Clews with 1,250
men and three machine guns from Ha
vana. Colonel Avalos' force, with the
exception of small detachments left at
San Juan da Martines and San Luis, is
at Pinar del Rio city, but is without
means of transportation to go to tba re
lief of San Juan de. Martinea. Not
more than 400 of tbem are mounted.
General Menocal said today that
Guerrera evidently had not been in
formed that tba government had actu-
1 1 1 . 1 1 1 . . 1
any, aiioiugn lniormauy, granted an
armistice, adding that a second commit
tee had been sent to him, but could not
reach him before tomorrow. The fact
ia, however, that Guerrera refuses
point blank to accept an armistice ex
cept on condition that the last presl
dential and congressional elections shall
be annulled. That the government
should consent to this is out of the
question, and tonight prospects point
to a continuance 01 tne war.
Orientals Not Anxious to Help Dig
Panama Canal.
New York, Bept. 10. Charles Yip
Tin, the Pierpont Morgan of China, is
in this country investigating the opera
tion of tha American railroad systems
Ha is an Americanised Chinaman, who
ia a financial and political power in
China, having recently been created a
taotai by tha emperor. Speaking of
tha plan to build tha Panama canal
with coolie laboi, ho said today:
"It is eaay for your president to say
tha eolation of tne labor problem on
the Panama canal may b met by the
Importation of Chinese coolies. )t is
quite another matter to get coolies in
any great number to woik on your
great enterprise under tba conditions
named. Neither my government nor
my people are anxious to further this
work. Tba government realises that
tha coolies wou'd not receive tba same
consideration ahown tba laborers of
other nationalitiea and tha common
people themselves have become thor
oughly conversant with all the details
of your exclusion laws, of the climatic
perils of Panama and of the bonding
scheme affecting coolie laborers on the
canal. I think I can sum np their feel
ings best by saving that they will not
belp buy 110,000 worth of American
prosperity at tba expense of $1 worth
ot Chinese labor and suffering.

President and Party Will Go to lath
mua In November,
Washington, Bept. 8. Arrangements
are in progress for the trip of President
Roosevelt to the Isthmus of Panama
this fall. The start will be made early
In November. Three weeks will likely
be consumed. It is, of course, the pres
ident's desire to complete bis inspec
tion of the canal work and reach here
before congress convenes December 3.
That the journey may be made safely
and expeditiously, the Navy depart
ment will provide three warships.
Detailed plans have not been com
pleted, but it is likley thai the presi
dent, Secretary Taft, and other guests
will occupy a first class battleship, the
members ot tne Uanal commission an
other, and newspaper representatives
third, which is to be a cruiser.
This will enable the president and
party to make the trip in comfort, give
mem bealtby accommodations while on
the isthmus and incidentally provide
against the possibility of delay throngb

William K. McAllister, of Denver,
tba first speaker, dealt with the immi
gration question and raised issues thst
involved the congress in mot firscsi
discussion. Tba Coloradoan advocated
foreign immigration, and as a model to
be followed urged the methods of the
Mormon church in settling the valleys
of Utah and adjoining states. Under
the methods of tba Mormon church
these immigrants had been drawn from
the agricultural classes of Northern
Europe, from the best of the bard work
ing peasants.
Hon. John P. Irish, of California,
asked the congress if it would not be
better to close the country's gates' to
the more than 1,000,000 ot foreign im
migranta who were coming annually
and give the youth of our own land a
higher opportunity. The Califernian
declared that the immigration today
was not a patriotic immigration, but a
parasitic immigration
C. W. Mott, of St. Faul, general im
migration agent of the Northern Pacific
railroad, agreed with Colonel Irish. He
said tba Northern Pacific's success in
peopling the territory traversed by
their lines had been in the Eastern
states, not in foreign lands. The kind
of immigration wanted had been found
in the Eastern states, and 7S.000 of
these, nearly all American citizens,
bad been settled in the Northwest dur
ing the past year. The lawless irnmi-
gration from even Europe, be believed,
was not wanted.
W. Reidt, a foreign born delegate
from Oregon, praised the foreign immi
grant, who was needed in the upbuild
ing of the country. The trouble with
Americans, he said, was that they were
all looking for "soft Jobs."
