TROUBLE IN SAMOA PLAQUE SITUATION. German Part of It in an Un. settled State. CAUSED BY MATAAFA FACTION Tutnllav and the Other America Islands tha Katlvaa Ara Peava. bia and Happy. Apia, Samoa, May 18, via San Fran eisco, June 4. Since the German flag was hoisted in Samoa, affairs have been in an unsettled state. The flia- taafa faction until after ' Kastor re mained in or around Apia, claiming that although they had given the king- shin to the commissioner in July last. thev had not by any meana given np their rights to govern the islands under the guarantee given to them oy me Berlin treaty, which assured the an tonomy of the Samoan group and the rhiht of the natives to elect their own kirn. Mataafa claimed that tne treaty powers had no right to nana over tne government of the Islands to any single Kiwtr. and that sucn a course waa not assented to by his people. Dr. Bolf, the newly appointed gov' ernor of German Samoa, had thus at the very outset of hi career a difficult and trviuz position to face. After sev eral interviews, in which the matters were discussed from the different point of view, the natives agreed to return to their homes and there await further newa after the arrival of din patches from the German government. - It ia generally understood the governor con ceded the right of the majority of the native to be the party who should oe consulted later in the formation oi the native administration and be entitled to appointments thereunder. The Mataafa party claim that "the spoil belong to the victor." In Tutuila the American representa tive. in the person of Commander Til ley, of the United State steamer Aber- enda, has had a much more agreeable and pleasant experience than Dr. Sou, There the natives balled witn entnusi- asm the hoUtlntf of "Old Glory" At Manna, the island lying east of Tutuila the chiefa have requested Commander Tilley to visit the islands In person and there hoist the flag.

Referring to quarantining of Chinatown, the attor ney for the Chinese Six Companies have made the following statement: "We shall do nothing preclpituntly In the way of litigation, and therefore we do not contemplate making an ap plication to the courts at this time for any order to modify or hinder the oper ations of the board of health. "A cause of considerable uneasiness among the inhabitant of Chinatown ia the lack of quarantine regulations thus far observed within the quarantined district. The general quarantine order keep 20,000 people within a pre scribed district, and that a compara tively samll district. In thia diHtrict it i not claimed that there are or ever have been more than nine or ten cam. The contention made by the people who are subject to the quarantine is that If it ia necessary to quarantine this num erouslv populated district, it is the duty of the board of health to go furth er and quarantine or isolate the houses and persons who are said to be in focted. "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. J f genuine bubonic plague eX' lets there, the city should stop at noth inmg to stamp it out. A million dol lars would lie a mere trifle to expend in doing this work qnickly and well." Chinese Consul Ho Tow takes the position that the municipal government of San Franeiaeo is bound to furnish necessaries for the support of the quar antined Chinese. The federal authoritiea refused to Issue clean bills of health to the steam ers City of Peking and Aowtralia, which have sailed for the Orient and Honolulu. They will have to undergo quarantine and fumigation on reaching Hawaii, WELL POLITICS IN SENATE. WAS IT AGUINALDO? THE ALUM BAKING POWDERS. The Filipino Leader or Adjutant Shot.

Senator. Banna, Bala and Tillman Led la tha Debate. Washington, June 4. The senatorial debate today waa caustic and aa warm a the weather outdoors. At times the exchanges between senators bordered on personalitiea. Much of the discua Bion was of a political uature, 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 thia as a text, severely arraigned Great Britain for expending hundreds of million of dol lar in crushing liberty and treeoom in South Africa, Instead of caring for the helpless and dying people of bng land'a chief colony. Aldrioh charged Hale with making political speeches on irrelevant matters, ana a mtio later, when Hale reported a further dia- agieement on the naval appropriation bill, an excitiug discussion arose over the armor-plate queation. A sharp political twist waa given to the debate by a apeeoh which ilanua delivered in favor ot leaving the whole matter in the band of the senate conferees, and of conferring discretionary powers upon the secretary of the navy in accordance with the house proposition. He be came involved in a controversy with Tillman and Allen over the govern ment's ability to manufacture armor satisfactorily, which the sparks flew, to the Intense interest ot the auditor. Teller, Allon and Pettlgrew replied to Ilanua. all speaking in a political vein. The bill finally waa returned to confer- euoe. , Seventy-nine private pension billa were passed, and also the military academy bill carried amendments mak ing General Miles and all future com mander of the army lieutenant-gen erals, and General Corbin a major- general. Consideration of the last of the appropriation bill, the general de ficiency bill, was begun, but was not completed. Delia roz Ia Inaane. i New York, June 4.

Killed and Sevea Ber- lun.ly Injured. Marietta, O., Junet 2. An explosion of nitro-glycerine on the Kelly farm, a few miles east of tbia city, resulted in fonr deaths, four fatally injured and three seriously "injured. Fifty quarts of nitro-glcyerine had been lowered ia 870-foot well. The "go devil" waa dropped as usual, but failed to set the shot off. A 'squib" was made with glycerine in a tube connected by a fuse. This waa dropped and in striking tne can at the bottom the main shot ex ploded and sent great quantities of water, oil and the unexploded squib into the air. The squib fell on the derrick floor unnoticed. As aoon aa the water cleared away there was great rush to the derrick by the inquis itive countrymen. The Marietta lor pedo Company and contractor could not keep them back, bnt fled to a safe distance themselves. There were about 15 in the derrick when the fuse to the squib ignited the glycerine, and the ten Ible resnlt followed. William M. Watson, II. E. Selton, Frank Sixers and Thomas Daniel were killed. Those fatally wounded are James P. S peers, Herman S peers, Daw son Stellar and William Carpenter. Those seriously injured are John Stal- lar. Walter Daniels aud Henry Stellar All the victims are resident of this county, well-to-do and prominent citi aens. EN ROUTE TO PEKING. Vlagn, Luzon, via Manila, June 5. Major March, with his detachment ol the Thirty-third regiment, overtook what is believed to have been Agui nnldo' party on May 19, at Lagat, about 100 miles northeast of Vigan. The American killed or wounded as flicer, supposed to be Agninaldo, whose body was removed by his fol lowers. Agninaldo bad 100 men, Majot March 125, the American commander reaching La Boagan, where Agninaldo had made bia headquarters since M ireb 6, on May 7. Agninaldo had fled seven hours before leaving all th beaten rrailt and traveling through the forest along the beds of streams. Toward evening. May 19, Major Starch struck Agui naldo's outpost about a mile outtdde of Lagat, killing fonr Filipinos and cap tin ing two. From the latter he learned that Agninaldo bad camped there for the night, exhausted and half itarved. Major March's men entered Lagnt on the run. They saw the insurgents scat tering Into the bushes or over the pi teau. A thousand yards tyond thi town, on the mountain side, the flgtrret of 25 Filipinos dressed in white with their leader on a gray horse were silhouetted azainst the sunset. The Americans Bred a volley and saw. the officer drop from his horse. His fol lowers 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 tier a , including proclamations. One of these was addressed: "To the Civ ilized Nations." It protested against the American occupation of the Philip pines. There waa also fonnd copies of Senator Bevendge's speech, translated into Spanish and entitled: "The Death Knell of tlie Filipino People." Major March, believing that the Filipinos had taken to a river which is a tributaiy of the Chico, followed it for two days, reaching Tlao, where he learned that a iwrty of Filipinos bad descended the river Slay 20 on a raft with the body of a dead or wounded man upon a litter, covered with palm leaves. There Major March reviewed his command, shoeless and exhausted, and picked ont 24 of the freshest men, with whom be beat the sni rounding country for six days longer, but with' out finding any trace ot tbe insurgents The Americans pushed on, and arrived at Aparri, May 29. The officer shot was either Agninaldo or his adjutant, and as the horse was richly caparisoned, it is fair presump tion that it was Agninaldo. Name, of Some of the Principal Brand a Sold In thia Vicinity. The recent discussion In the 'papers of the effect upon the human system of food made with alum baking powders and he opinions that have been pub lished from noted scientists to the effect that such powder render the food unwholesome, have caused numer ous Inquiries for the names of the vari ous alum powders. The following list of baking powders containing alum is made up from the report of state chemists and food com missioners, of Minnesota, or other reli- able authority: Baking Powders Containing Alum; K. O. .Contains Alum Jaqnea M(e. Co., Chicago. Calumet Contains Alum Calumet Bulling Powder Co., Chicago. Home Contains Alum Home Baking Powder Co., San Francisco. Washington....

Ban Francisco. Bon Bon Contains Alum Grant Chemical Co.. Cbicaxo. Defiance .Contains Alum Portland Coffee & Spice Co., Port and. Portland Contains Alum Bcoo A Ballia, Portland. In addition to these, it is learned that many grocers are selling what they call their own private or special brands. These powders are put up for the grocer and his name put upon tbe labels by manufacturers of alum pow ders. Tlie manufacturers, it ia said, find their efforts to market their goods in this way greatly aided by the ambi tion of the grocer, to sell a powder with is own name upon the label, especially when the grocer can make an abnormal profit upon it. Many grocers, doubtless, do not know that the powders they are thus pushing are alum powders which would be act ually contrabrand in many sections If sold without disguise. It is quite impossiblo to give the names of all the alnm baking powders in the market. They are constantly appearing in all sorts of disguises, under all kinds of cognomens, and at all kinds of prices, even as low as five and 10 cents a pound. Tbey can be avoided, however, by the housekeeper who will bear in mind that all .baking powders sold at 25 cents or less per pound are liable to contain alum, as pure cream of tartar baking powders cannot be produced . at anything like this price. 1 BURIAL Small Forces Landed From the Foreign Wanhlpa Paat Tien Tlan.

A free dispensary at 610 West Eighteenth street, said to be conducted by medical stndenta, was attacked today by a crowd of in furiated Bohemians and Lithuanians, and before the police arrived in re' sponge to a riot call, tbe building waa badly damaged. Today a boy disap' pea red, and his boy companion report ed that he had been waylaid and killed bv the doctors. In a few momenta a mob of several hundred people was at work demolishing the building.

STILL FAR FROM QUIET. Several Dlatarbancea by the St. Loala Car-Striker. St. Louis, June 5. A riot of small proportions, during the progress ol which a boy was fatally shot and a dynamite explosion occurred, marred what would have otherwise been an uneventful Sunday. As a car on the Tower line was passing the corner of Twelfth and Calhoun streets, a crowd of strike sympthisers threw rocks at it, An unknown man in the car bred revolver into the crowd. The bullet struck Peter Frank, 16 years old, who who was sitting in the doorway of his father's honse. A detachment of police dispensed the rioters. The boy ill die. At a late hour this at tor noon an ex plosion of dynamite shattered the cable conduit and switches of the Olive street line, at the intersection of Maryland and Boyle avenues. lo one was in jured, but traffic on that end of the liue had to be suspended. There is no clue to the perpetrators. More than tlie usual quota of police was furnished today for the protection ef passengeis and crews, and as a re. suit the number of cars on the various lines ot the Transit Company waa materially increased.

Strange and almost weird is the cere monial which accompanies tbe burial of Spanish kings. The pantheon, or royal tomb, is at the palace of Kscurial, situated 3,000 feet above the level of the sea and some distance from tha capital. Only kings, queens and moth ers of kings are buried there, the coffins af the kings lying on one side, aud those of tbe queens on tbe other. After lying in state for several days in tbe throne room in Madrid, says the San Francisco Argonaut, an enormous procession is formed accompanying the body to the Escurial. A halt is made oa the way and the corpse rests there for one night. In the moruing the lord high chambei- lain stands at the side of the coffin and says in loud tones: "Is your majesty pleased to proceed on your journey' After a short silence tbe procession moves on and winds up to tbe grand portal of the palace. These doors are never opened except to admit a royal personage, dead or alive. When tbe casket containing the remains is at last placed in the vault the chamberlain unlocks it and, kneeling down, calls with a loud voice: "Senor! Souorl Senorl" After a solemn pause be cries again: "His majesty does not reply. Then it is true the king is deadl" He then locks the coffin, gives the key to the prior (the palace of the Escurial contains also a Urge monastry and tha church) and, taking his staff of office, breaks it in pieces and flings them at the casket. The booming of guns aud tbe tolling of bells announce to the nation that the king haa gone to his final resting plaeo. Saving Oneaetr by Cervlce. A man was traveling over an Alpine pass. He went over the glaciers, sink ing in the enow step by step, upward, until he was aweary. High on the summit of the pass a desire to sleep overcame him. He could hardly put one foot before another. Just aa he was almost sinking down into the sleep which would have proved the sleep of death to him, he struck his foot against an obstacle which proved to be the body of a tiaveler who had preceded him. He bent down, found that the heart had not ceased to beat and began at once to rub the frozen limbs aud to do his best to reanimate the body. In his effort he was successful. He saved the man's life; and, in the effort, ho banished his own desire to sleep and so saved his own life in saving another. Herald and Presbyter. Already Tamed. 'I have decided," said the girl In blue, "that when I marry I shall marry a widower." "Coward!" returned the girl in fray, scornfully. Truly, it would seem that a woman ihould be willing to tame her own husband.- Chicago Post. Literary Ornament. "What is a library, pa?"
