The steamer Churuca transferred the Span- ish forces to Mindanao. In accordance with an agreement the rebels entered the city and trenches on Monday at noon. They immediately es- tablished a municipal government. Guards were placed over forelgn proo- erty. Everything is quiet and orderly.

With wider information at his disposal than is in the possession of many of those who are disposed to antagonize the ratification of the treaty or delay it for an indefinte period, he desires to maintain the firm policy which has | tharacterized the administration in dealing with the Spanish problem since the destruction of the Maine rendered war inevitable. |FOUGHT TWENTY FAST ROUNDS TO A DRAW Jimmy Barry and Caspar Leon Di- | vide Honors Before the Tri- City Athletic Club. DAVENPORT, lowa, Dec. 20.—Jimmy Barry, the bantam-weight champion, and his old-time rival, Casper Leon, fought a fast twenty-round fight to a draw to- night before the Tri-City Athletic Club. The smell hall in which the fight was held was filled to overflowing, large delega- | tions from Chicago and adjoining cities being in attendance. The fight was an even one from start to finish. In the opin- ion of many of the spectators Leon out pointed his man, but Barry's apparently superior strength easily evened up mat- ters. There was very little betting on the | event, Leon’s previous defeats making | the sporting element shy of the invest- | ment. Owing to long delays, caused by awaiting the arrival of special trains, the fight was not concluded until aftér 1 o'clock. Though the fighting was very fast in every round, neither contestant scored a knockdown. ' ieon came out of the mill ith a badly damaged eye, Barry inflict- | ing the injury with a hard right smash during the third round. | _The decision of the referee, Malachi Ho- gan, met with the approval of the specta- 2 Barry's seconds were Frank Bart- | ley, Tommy White and Patsy Fitzgerald, | while Leon was backed by Morris Rausch, Kid Manning and Dan Leach. e Racing at New Orleans.

There is some occult influence which frequently causes well-bred and well-in- tentioned people to forget their breeding znd their manners directly they have a gun in hand and find themselves on an- | other person’s land looking for game. Yet | there is surely nothing inherent in a taste for field sports which involves such dis- | regard of others.

THO PETITIONS FOR DISARMAMIENT Presented to President by a Delegation. REPRESENTS MANY CHURCHES MILLIONS OF CERISTIANS WHO FAVOR LASTING PEACE. Not Advocates of Peace at Any Price, but Thoroughly Desirous of Securing International Arbitration. Special Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.—A delega- tlon presented to the President to-day two petitions, one from the great ma- jority of the organized Protestant | Christian churches of the world and the other from the Pan-Presbyterian | Alliance. The first petition was signed | by the representatives of the 145 na- tional and denominational churches, existing on all the six continents, viz: The Church of England, the Church of Scotland, twenty-nine other churches | in Great Britain and Ireland, the gen- eral of the Salvation Army, two churches in Bel-ium, two in Switzer- land, six in Holland, twelve in Aus- tralia, eight in the United States and sixty-four in other parts of the world. All unite in their approval of the pe- tition. It asks for the reduction of the heavy armaments maintained by Chris- tion nations, “ready upon provocation to go to war and settle their disputes by bloodshed,” and also requests the influence of the Government of the United States in favor of international arbitration as a substitute for war. The second petition is from the Pan- Presbyterian Alliance, which also united in the first petition and with it includes eighty national and denomi- national churches throughout the world. This second petition asked for a “permanent and peaceful method for the settlement of all controversies aris- ing between the people of the British empire and the republic of the United States.” The delegation stated that they were not to-be regarded as “the advocates of a policy of peace at any price,” or with maintaining the opinion that all war is sinful. They quoted the West- minster confession to the effect that “Civil magistrates may rightfully now, under the New Testament, wage war upon just and necessary occa- sions.” The signers of these petitions repre- sent more than 80,000,000 of Christians in all parts of the world, 25,000,000 of whom are Presbyterians. The President responded cordially to the delegation, saying that he favored arbitration between Great Britain and America. He also said that he had re- snonded promntly to the Czar’s pro- posal for disarmament, but that under present circumstances the armaments of the United States could not now be lessened, but would in any event be less than would satisfy European na- tions. A Calendar Tea for Charity. A Calendar tea for-the benefit of Fa- biola Hospital will be given to-morrow afternoon between the hours of 2 and 4 o'clock at the residence of Mrs. Willlam R.

MYSTERY STILL ~ SHROUDS THE | - CORNISH CASE Authorities Entirely at | Sea. 'NO TRACE OF THE POISONER MRS. ADAMS' DEATH DUE TO CYANIDE OF POTASSIUM. | Opinion of the Coroner’s Physician | Divorced Wife of the Intended Victim Makes a Statement. NEW YORK, Dec. —The Adams- | Cornish poisoning case remains as great | a mystery as ever. When the detective | bureau, the District Attorney's office, | the Coroner’s office and others seeking | to find a solution of the strange case | ended their labors for the day all said nothing had been learned that might assist in bringing the guilty persons to justice. The police are inclined to-believe that the person who sent the poison to Cor- nish is a woman, although the evidence is of the most flimsy character and is largely based on opinions of more or less responsible parties. | Mr. Cornish, who was also poisoned at | the time of Mrs. Adams’ death, is now | compietely out of danger, though con- fined to his bed at the Knickerbocker Athletic Club. Captain McClusky denied that he had placed or contemplated placing Mr. Cornish under surveillance. He sent word to the Knickerbocker - Athletic Club, however, asking if Cornish was able to come to headquarters.

But the Southern Pacific Is Also| Watching the Situation and ‘Will Endeavor to Shut Out Competition. Special Dispatch to The Call. REDDING, Dec. 28.—Strong hopes are entertained in extreme Northeast- ern California that rumors of the com- | ing of an Eastern trunk line railroad | are soon to be realized. The rumors are so persistent that people all along the prospective route are becoming in- | fected with the speculative spirit| aroused by the advent of a great over- | land road into new territory, and the price of farm and stock lands has re- celved an upward tilt in consequer Several years ago the Union Pacific surveyed a line from Redding up Pit River, through Modoc County, and on to Boise City, Idaho, where conneczion was made with the Oregon Short Line. The survey was without result to the country traversed, as the Union Pacific never made any attempt at constru tion work, though the engineers made a most favorable report to headquarters in Omaha. It is now reported that sur< veyors were again in the field, working this way from Idaho, and were only withdrawn late in the fall. It is ex- pected that early in the spring they will again take the fleld and push forward to the head of the Sacramento Valley. What road these surveyors represent is not known, but it is the general opin- ion here that the Union Pacific is be- hind®the survey. ‘Were it not for the fact that the “Q” road has considerable realty holdings, besides dock privileges, at Grays Har- bor, Washington, there would be rea- son to believe that the Chicago, Bur- lington and Quincy was headed this way, making for San Francisco by the most feasible pass through the Sierras by following the course of Pit River, passing down the Sacramento Valley and entering Lake County and thence to a junction with the Donohue road at Hopland or thereabout. Billings, Mon- tana, is the western terminus of tre Burlington track. The Unlon Pacific would follow the same route as out- lined for the Burlington. One of the most fertile stock regions on the coast lles directly in the path of the survey. Three spurs from the lines of the Southern Pacific Company, lying in walting for indications of overland competition from northeastward, are gradually being thrown forward in the direction of Idaho, though on the sur- face these branches appear to be noth- ing but feeders to the main line from the Sierra timber belts. One roaa leaves the Shasta route at Anderson, in this county, another at Castle Crag, and the third at Upton, in Siskiyou County. The latter, the McCloud River Railroad, has been built with a solia, substantial roadbed, inspected and ac. cepted by the Southern Pacific engl- neers, and railroad people have inti- mated time and again that that road would be used to head off any Fastern trunk line that might seek to enter the State from the northeast. The Castle Crag line will be pushed forward in the spring to Modoc County, following the timber belt to the Whitehorse forests, where a Michigan svndicate has a bond on 90,000 acres of sugar and yellow pine lands. The people of Modoc believe that it is this road which will event- ually be continued forward to South- eastern Oregon with the idea of shut- ting out the Union Pacific or any other incomingroad. If the development of the Orziental trade, tcoether with the easy matter of financing a road with money so abundant in banking and financial centers of the country, induces any ot the big comnanies in the Northwest to strike toward California it will be over the route along Pit River down to the Sacramento Valley. It is through a rough country for e'-“+v or one hun- dred miles, but cannot be comparea wlfih the Shasta route In expense per mile . I T0 AMEND MALL SUBSIDY ACT Proposed Encourage- ment of Shipping. UNITED SUPPORT EXPECTED | BOUNTY ON TONNAGES AS WELL AS SPEED AND DISTANCE. Legislation in the Past Caused to Be Constructed Vessels That Were of Great Service in the War. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. Call Office, Riggs House, Washington, Dec. 29. There will be a strong effort made to amend the mail subsidy act by provid- | ing for a bounty on mail tonnage as well as for speed and distance. This measure seems likely to enlist the united suport of the Republican party | in Congress, inasmuch as President McKinley, in his last annual message to Congress recommended legislation calculated to assist the American mer- chant marine, especially between the United States and the Hawaiian Isl- ands and the islands acquired from Spain. Senator Hanna’s bill provides that tonnage compensation shall be paid to owners of vessels registered by an American citizen, ' and which at the time of entry are engaged in the for- eign trade of the United States, the Secretary of the Treasury beingauthor- ized to contract for a period of twenty | yvears and pay one and one-half cents per gross ton for each 100 nautical miles | for the first 1600 miles, outward or in- ward, and.one cent for each 100 miles over 1500 miles. Representative Bingham of Pennsyl- vania, who is the author of the law providing for a subsidy to American ships carrying United States mails to foreign ports, is much interested in the subject. “The bill for a subsidy for American mall-carrying ships,” sald Bingham to The Call correspondent to-day, reported from the Committee on Post- offices and Post Roads in the Fifty- first Congres by myself. It was enact- ed into a law in lieu of the Farquhar bounty bill, which Congress regardedas too radical at that time. The law paid a subsidy to United States vessels car- rying mails on a basis of mileage and speed. “The immediate outgrowth of that law was the construction in an Ameri- as | Cornish, replied that his patient would not be able to leave his bed for two A - L | days.
