KOKOMO, Ind., June 25~A Kokomo man claims to have discovered a process for making gold. = The alleged discoverer is Dr. Hercules Ogle, a prac- titioner of fifty years' standing in ‘this community. In the rear of his little of- fice is a dingy shed which the doctor uses for a laboratory. On the shelves there are thousands of pebbles of all varieties, specimens of rocks, parcels of sand—in fact, samples of everything that is to be found in the bowels of the earth. “It is all in knowing how,” said the old doctor to a newspaper man, as he displayed a handful of nuggets. “These are pure gold and they came from a point within five miles of Kokomo. Na~- ture provides the elements for all good things, and man is expected to have in- telligence enough to use them, but does not. I have been prowlng around among the elements that enter into the construction of earth, and while I have learned a few things there are millions of other good things.waiting for the hand of intelligence to , bring them forth.

AMERICAN OFFICERS START A RIOT IN CUBA expenditu Jamieson raid in 1 z to the best two_mounted | numbering Several Persons Injured During the | Melee They Created to Avoid | Arrest. CIENFUEGOS, Cuba, June 25.—Three American officers, who had been creat- Ing a disturbance in a house of ill-re- pute and had resisted arrest, entered a carriage and began firing their revolv- ers, wounding Policeman Ortega. Other policemen returned the fire and joined by a mob pursued the carriage to the railway station, where American pick- ets were guarding wagons and a safe containing money. The troops, mostly recruits, on seeing that the officers were in danger, en- trenched themselves behind the wagons | and began shooting, wounding two po- | licemen and three civilians. A wealthy | planter who was passing in a carriage | with his children was struck by a Krag-Jorgensen ball, receiving serious injury. Senor Frias, the Mayor, the Cuban General Esquerra and Major Bowman, commanding the Americans, rode through the crowd, begging the people | to restrain themselves and ordering the | troops to stop. Their attempts were | finally successful. The corporal in charge of the pickets says he did not glve an order to fire, but people who were near. insist that they heard him give such a command. Indignation runs high, but there is no fear of further trouble. The offending officers have been locked up. NOTHING TO SAY OF SENATORIAL ASPIRATIONS Alger Does Not Think His Former Statements Will Embarrass the Administration. WASHINGTON, June 25.—Secretary Al- ger returned to the capital this evening and said he had nothing to add to what he sald in Chicago regarding his candidacy for the Senate. He did not intend to re- sign from the Cabinet, as the campaign for Senator would not begin until next year. He did not see how it could em- barrass the administration for him to re- main in the Cabinet after he announced his views on trusts, but that was a ques- tion for the President alone to decide. He had always been frank with the Presi- dent and the President had always known he could have his resignation whenever it would relieve the administration of em- barrassment. He did not pretend to speak for the ad- ministration in his view upon trusts, but spoke as-a private citizen concerning what he regarded as one of the dangers of the country. No members of the Cabi. net could commit the administration upon any question, as was shown by Secretary Gage's position regarding currency re- form expressed in his officlal rt, but el efeleefete | road to make researches th | chosen five men who | also of great interest, as the geological | | valleys of the region are the paleon- | scientific institutions.

BERLIN, June 25.—The Neéuste Nach- richten contends that the recognition by the International Commissioners of the decision of Chief Justice Chambers re- gard the kingship of Samoa does not in the least prejudice the claims of Germans to compensation for losses sustained dur- ing the recent disturbances. Most of the papers express vexation and disappointment at the upholding of Chief Justice Chambers’ decision. -~ The Fourth at Soulsbyville.

The occasion was also the fiftieth anniversary of President Dwight's own graduation. Many of his cld classmates were in the chapel. The graduating class occupied the greater part of the body of the Battel Chapel. All of them wore the academic robe, and with them were many visitors from out of town, President Dwight's address was largely of a retrospective and personal nature. At the close of the sermon he addressed a benediction in the most solemn and im- pressive manner. His voice often choked His words were: And now, my fellow students, and may I not almost say my cl ates of the class of 1893, let me ask you rise.

ST. LOUIS, June —The Post-Dis- patch says that Frank Connolly, who was acting as treasurer of the Thomas Keene Dramtic Company in the mysteriously disappeared from McVicker's Theater, in Chicago, has turned up in St. Louis after a varied experience. Tt was be- lieved at the time that Connolly had been foully dealt with, but the police were unable to find the missing man. According to Mr. Connolly’s story, he had supper that night with a woman friend from Pittsburg. After that, un- til two weeks later, when he regained his senses in a freight car near Mat- toon, Ills., everything was a blank to him. He was minus $400 in money and several hundred dollars’ worth of jew- elry. He was taken to a hospital, where he recovered from a severe ill ness, which was the result of his hav- ing been drugged. Thinking himself disgraced and fear- ing to face his friends, Connolly went to Cuba and acted as correspondent for a number of papers during the war. He made no attempt to conceal his identity and apparently nobody knew him. On his coming to St. Louis an old friend of Mr. Connolly met and recognized him. CYCLONE'S HAVOC IN A NEBRASKA VILLAGE OHAMA, June 25.—A special to the Bee from Bradley, Neb., says: Early this morning a “twister” struck this thriving village and partly wrecked it. The storm came from the north with a tremendous roar and aroused every- body from bed. It first struck the two- story brick block owned by Charles Nash of New York and occupied by a drug store and general merchandise store below and the Methodist Society upstairs. The building was totally wrecked, entailing a loss, including merchandise and, furnishings, of $10,000. Floyd A. Watworth was caught in the debris and seriously hurt. Across the street the postoffice was totally wrecked. The buildine was oc- cupied by William Miller and valued at $1000. Corliss’ general store was un- roofed, the residence of David Magnus was badly wrecked, Rev. Dr. Foutch lost a carriage house and barn and John Jones a barn. The ground was plowed up by the wind and some stock killed. SMYRNA FIG WILL BE A SUCCESS HERE ‘WASHINGTON, June 25.—The Agricul- tural Department has issued a bulletin treating of the probable success of the efforts of the department to establish the Smyrna fig industry in California. It ap- pears that the fruiting of the Smyrna fig is dependent upon the introduction from Southern Europe and the establishment in Cahfornhrl, of a little insect which fertil- izes the fig. Experimental introductions of the in- sect were thereupon begun and some of them brought over n 1898 have succeeded in penetrating the closed flowers of the Capri figs growing at Fresno, making the first step of the experimental work a sue- cess. The bulletin adds: “Since the in- sect has maintained itself for an entire year, there is reason to suppose that it will continue to breed and that California in the near future will be able to place a fig upon the market which will possess the same superior flavor as that which has given the imported Smyrna figs their pre-eminent commercial rank.” g Death of “Fatty” Walsh.

PORTLAND, Or., June —The re- mains of Ensign Robert Monaghan of the cruiser Philadelphia, who was killed in the fighting in Samoa, were given every honor while in Portland, where he was well remembered by many old classmates. After lying at thg armory over night, the casket was carriedoutat noon to the waiting hearse and taken to the Cathedral. First came a platoon of police, then the naval and military escort under Captain W. T. Carrol, consisting of the Naval Reserve Battalion, a detach- ment of the Twenty-fourth Infantry from Vancouver Barracks and ' the guard of honor—eleven men from Com- pany C, Second Regiment, of Spokane, under Captain Green, and the Young Men's Institute. The First Regiment Band rendered music and the bells tolled as the pro- cession passed up Washingtn street and approached the Catholic Cathedral, in which edifice 2000 people had assembled. As the casket was borne up the main aisle a dirge came from the organ, and the choir rendered a hymn. The singing of “Nearer, My God, to Thee” was very touchine. The service for the dead was con- ducted by the resident clergy, and Archbishop Alexander Christie deliv- ered an address. The remains were then escorted to the train, which left for Spokane at 2:10 p. m. bt BIG BLAZE IN BOSTON. BOSTON, June 25.—The large six- story building on the corner of Pearl and Purchase streets was swept almost clean by fire to-night, the owners and numerous occupants, mostly small pub- lishing concerns, sustaining a loss of nearly $180,000. The principal loss, other than on the building, falls on the Boston Bookbind- ing Company, which has issued a num- ber of publications, including The Golf- er, the American Wool and Cotton Re- porter and Land and Water. .

S STOCKTON, June -Captain Geis- | sler, the treasure hunter who has spent seven years on Cocos Island and who s back in Stockton with no gold, has | his faith in the story of buried millions | unaltered. Geissler is the man, who, seven years agc, sailed from here in the rickity little boat known as the Hay- is?é(l, and succeeded with his small band | of ‘adventurous spirits in reaching the |little island off the Costa Rican coast. | The story of the millions buried on the Cocos |island by pirates under Del Pedro Ben- | | ito, in the year of 1821, was founded on |a report generally accepted as being | true, but the value of the interred Span- |ish coin has grown with the passing vears from $10,000,000 to $60,000,000. So generally believed is the story that the | Central American Government has re- | served certain rights in case the treas- ure is discovered, and more than one | passing warship has allowed a crew to land in order to take a look at the is- land. Many stories have been related concerning the island, but Geissler gives | the reasons for the faith within him iupun the following grounds: During the early years of the present century Cocos Island was the home of a piratical band, composed mostly of Portuguese. After their raids upon helpless coast settlements Benito’s band would run for the island, and after car- ing for their booty would again put to sea. Finally on one of the voyages the pirate ship went against a stronger vessel and but two of the -cut-throats | were spared. These two men were al- |lowed to live in order that they might direct their captors to the place where the doubloons were buried. They es- caped, and one of them is believed to have been John Keating, who settled in St. Johns, Newfoundland, a few years later. At any rate Keating seemed to talk a whole lot about the affair and to | know where the treasure was buried on 1‘lhe island. He claimed to have secured this information from one of the two men who escaped. Keating interested some seafaring men in a scheme to recover the gold and a vessel was fitted cut in 1844 to t the island. The captain of the vessel went ashore with Keating and Wwas never seen alive again. Keating | after securing all the treasure they | could carry, concluded to not return to | the waiting vessel, but to make their | way to the Costa Rican coast in the | ¢ance and thus escape the cbligation of ‘dwndlng with the crew, or giving out | information as to what they had seen. }Later they were to return to the island | and bring away the money. The Costa Rican Government, however, suspected him of having murdered the captain. The story he told that their canoe had overv,urlx_]edl and the captain drowned was a little too thin. Keating brou, away $10,000 and with this hrigbed sognk'll; ‘ngils an%hrinanaged to get out of the untry. s occurred, ace the story, in 1846. S Keating returned to Canada and died there, leaving a widow, who is now a vanced age in British Columbia. says that when about to die Keat?r‘:; disclosed to her the markings on the island necessary to a successful hunt for the treasure. She dreaded a sea Voyage and entered into an agreement by which Geissler undertook to search sexen years ago. year ago the old lady, beis is- satisfield with Geissler’'s riporrtsr.lgc}fai— tered a vessel and went to the island. Time has effaced many landmarks and to this is the unsuccessful search attri- buted. A man named Hartford made the acquaintance of Mrs. Brennan dur- ing her voyage and on learning her story he interested British naval men. The Imperieuse, under Commodore Pal- liser, landed a party last year, which made a search against the protests of the first comers. The sailors found nothing. Geissler says that all that remains to be done is to prosecute a systematic search. This may take years. He has a 1arge plantation laid out, with 20,000 coffee and 2000 banana trees already be- ginning to bear. Mrs. Geissler has be- come a resident of the island and the two will spend their remaining years looking after the plantation and search- ing for the buried millions of Del Pedr: Benito. 5 _ Qocos Island les twenty miles off the told a story of how he and the captain, | Mrs. Brennan and resides at an ad- | coast and contains about twenty square miles. Captain Geissler will return to his island home in a few weeks. DANGER OF A CLASH ON ALASKAN BORDER State Department Notified of the Bit- terness Between Americans and Canadians.
