San Francisco, Junes.— Referring to
quarantining of Chinatown, the attor­
neys for the Chinese Six Companies
have made the following statement:
" W e shall do nothing precipitautly
in tbe way of litigation, aud therefore
we do not contemplate making an ap­
plication to the courts at this time for
any order to modify or binder the oper­
ations of the board of health.
“ A cause of considerable uneasiness
among the inhabitants of Chinatown is
the lack of quarantine regulations thus
far observed within the quarantined
district. The general quarantine order
keeps 20,000 people within a pre­
scribed district, and that a compara­
tively samll district. Iu this district
it is not claimed that there are or ever
have been more than nine or teu cases.
The contention made by Dispeople who
are subject to tbe quarantine is that if
it is necessary to quarantine this num
eroualy populated district, it is the
duty of the board of health to go furth­
er and quarantine or isolate tbe houses
and persons who are said to be in­
fected.
“ We shall also request the board of
health to proceed vigorously with the
sanitation of the quarantined district.
The question of expense is a secondary
matter. I f genuine bubonic plague ex­
ists there, the city should stop at noth-
iumg to stamp it out. A million dol­
lars would be a mere trifle to expend
in doing this work quickly aud w ell.”
Chinese Consul Ho Yow takes the
position that the municipal government
of San Francisco ia bound to furnish
necessaries for the support of the quar­
antined Chinese.

Apia, Samoa, May 13, via San Fran
elaco, June 4.— Since the German Hag
was hoisted in Samoa, affaira have
been in an unsettled state. The Ma-
taafa faction until after Easter re­
mained in or around Apia, claiming
that although they had given the king-
ship to the commissioners in July last,
they had not by any means given up
their rights to govern the islands under
the guarantee given to them by the
Berlin treaty, which assured the au­
tonomy of the Samoan group and the
right of the natives to elect their own
king. Mataafa claimed that the treaty
powers had no right to hand over the
government of the islands to any single
power, and that such a course was no*
assented to by his people.
Dr. Solf, the newly appointed gov­
ernor of German Samoa, had thus at
the very outset of his career a difficult
and trying position to face. After sev­
eral interviews, iu which the matters
were discussed from the different points
of view, the natives agreed to return
to their homes and there await further
news after tho arrival of dispatobes
from the German government.
It is
generally understood the governor con­
ceded the right of the majority of the
natives to be the party who should be
consulted later in the formation ol the
native administration and be entitled
to appointments thereunder.
The
Mataafa party claims that “ the spoils

In t h e D e b a t e .
Washington, June 4.— The senatorial
debate today was caustic and as warm
as the weather outdoors. A t times the
exchanges between senators bordered
on personalities. Much of the discus­
sion was of a political nature, although
in themselves the questions involved
were not essentially political.
Soon
after the senate convened, a memorial
was presented from the people of Cali­
fornia asking that the government pro­
vide some relief for the starving people
of India. Hale, with this as a text,
severely arraigned Great Britain for
expending hundreds if millions of dol­
lars in crushing liberty and freedom
in South Africa, Instead of caring for
the helpless anil dying people of Eng­
land’s chief colony. Aldrich charged
Hale with making political speeches
on irrelevant matters, and a little
later, w hen Hale reported a further dis-
agieemeiit on the naval appropriation
hill, an exciting discussion arose over
the armor-plate question.
A sharp
political twist was given to the debate
by a speech which Hanna delivered in
favor ot leaving the whole matter in
the hands of the senate conferees, and
of conferring discretionary (lowers upon
the secretary of the navy in accordance
with the house proposition.
He be­
came involved in a controversy with
Tillman and Allen over tbe govern­
ment’s ability to manufacture armor
satisfactorily,in which the sparks flew,
to the intense interest of the auditors.
Teller, Allen and Pettigrew replied to
Hanna, all speaking in a political vein.
The bill finally was returned to confet-
ence.
Beventy-nine private pension
hills were passed, and also the military
academy hill carried amendments mak­
ing General Miles and all future com­
manders of the army lieutenant-gen­
erals, and General Corbin a major-
general. Consideration of the last of
the appropriation hills, the general de­
ficiency bill, was begun, but was not
completed.

Major March, with his detachment ot

March 125, the American commander
reaching I-a Boagan, where Aguinaldu
had made his headquarters since Mirch
6, on May 7. Aguinaldo had fled seveD
hours before leaving all tlu beaten trails
aud traveling through the forest along
the beds of streams. Toward evening,
May 19, Major Mareh struck Agui-
lialdo’s outpost about a mile outside oi
Lagat, killiug four Filipiuos and cap-
tuiiug two. From the latter he learned
that Aguinaldo had camped there fut
the night, exhausted and half starved.
Major March’s men entered Lagat on
the run. They saw the insurgents scat­
tering into the hushes or over the pla­
teau. A thousand yards beyond tht
town, on the mountain side, the figiirot
of 25 Filipiuos dressed in white with
their leader on a gray horse were
silhouetted agaiust the stiusut.
The
Americans tired a volley and saw the
officer drop from his horse.
His fol­
lows! b fled, carrying the body.
The
Americans, on teaching the spot,
caught the horse, which was richly
saddled. Blood from a badly wounded
man was on the animal and on the
ground. The saddle bags contained
Aguinaldo’s diary and some private
pa|iers , including proclamations. Ons
of these was addressed: “ To the Civ­
ilized Nations.” It protested against
the American occupation of the Philip­
pines. Theie was also found copies of
Senator Beveridge’s speech, translated
into Spanish and entitled: “ Tho Death
Knell of the Filipino People.”
Major March, believing that the
Filipiuos had taken to a river which is
a tributaiy of the Chico, followed it for
two days, reaching Tiao, where he
learned that a party of Filipiuos had
descended the river May 2U on a raft
with Uie body of a dead or wounded
man upon a litter, covered with palm
leaves. There Major March reviewed
his command, shoeless aud exhausted,
ami picked out 24 of the freshest men,
with whom he beat the sui rounding
country for six days longer, but with­
out finding any trace of tbe insurgents.
The Americans pushed on, uud arrived
at Aparri, May 29.
Tiie officer shot was either Aguinaldo
or his adjutant, and as the horse was
richly ( apurisoned, it is fair presump­
tion that it was Aguinaldo.

which a boy was fatally shot and a

what would have otherwise been an

At a late honr this afternoon an ex­
plosion of dynamite shattered the cabl*
conduit aud switches of the Olive street
line, at the intersection of Maryland
and Boyle avenues. No one was in­
jured, but traffic on that end of the line
had to lie suspended. There is no clue
to the per|*strators.
More than the nsnal quota of police

of passeugeis and crews, and ns a re­

Strange sud almost weird is the cere­
monial which accompanies the burial
of Spanish kings.
The pantheon, or
royal tomb, is at the palace of Escurial,
situated 3,000 feet above the level of
the sea and some distance from the
capital. Only kings, queens aud moth­
ers of kings are buried there, the coffins
of tlie kings lying on one side, and those
of the queens on the other. After lying
in state for several days in the throne-
room iu Madrid, says the San Francisco
Argonaut, an enormous procession is
formed accompanying tlie body to the
Escurial. A halt is made on the way
and the corpse rests there for one night.
In the morning the Inn I high chamber­
lain stands at the side of the coffin and
says In loud tones: " I s your majesty
pleased to proceed on your journey?’
After a short silence the procossion
moves on and winds up to the grand
portal of the palace. These doors aro
never opened except to admit a royal
personage, dead or alive.
When the
casket containing the romains Is al lust
placed in the vault the chamberlain
unlocks it and, kneeling down, calls
with a loud voice:
“ lienorI Sonorl
Senot I” After a solemn pause he cries
again: " H is majesty does not reply.
Then it is true the king is dead!” He
then locks the coffin, gives the key to
the prior (the palace of the Kacnrial
contains also a large monastry aud the
church) aud, taking his staff of office,
breaks it in pieces and flings them at
the casket. The booming of guns aud
the tolling of hells announce to the
nation that the king hus gone to his
final resting plaec.
