KITCHENER'S SUCCESSOR
Sir lan Hamilton To Be Mediter
ranean Inspector General.
1.-.ndnn. June 2<V— General Sir lan
Hamilton. Adjutant to the Forces, has
r*>en appointed to the post of inspector
general of the Mediterranean forces, to
succeed Field Marshal Lord Kitchener,
whose resignation was communicated
officially to the House of Commons by
R. B. Haldane, Secretary for War, on
June 13.
Lord Kitchener was appointed to the
Mediterranean command last August, to
succeed the Puke of Connaught. There
was a strong agitation to have Kitchener
appointed to a more important place, and
many protests were made against sending
the test organizer in the British army to
BBCfl a remote post. Lord Kitchener's res
ignation, therefore, occasioned no surprise.
Genera: Hamilton is second military
member of the Army Council. He was
chief of staff to Lord Kitchener in 1901-'O2
in South Africa, and was one of the de
fenders of Ladysmith in the Boer War.
He served as military representative of
India with the Japanese army in Man
churia in 1904-'OS.

MAN AND AUTO DISAPPEAR
Roosevelt Wedding Guest Proves
Optimist in Statement.
To lose a brand new automobile, chauf
feur and all. and then maintain that its
disappearance is due to the faithfulness
of the chauffeur proves the optimism of
Edward Livingston Smith, of WoodviHe,
Long Island.
Mr Smith, in order to avoid the crush
after the Roosevelt-Alexander wedding,
instructed his chauffeur to wait for him
in front of the Plaza Hotel. After a
three-hour vigil he came to the conclu
sion that something: was wrong, so he
went tr- tbe "Waldorf and inquired for his
machine. It had not been seen.
Then he went to the West 30th street
station and askd Lieutenant Welch if
his chauffeur had been arrested.
"What is his name?" asked the lieu
tenant.
"I give it up," said Smith; "I call him
Sam."
"The Dumber?" next inquired the lieu
tenant.
"That I don't know, either." was the
answer.
"I'r. you think Sam stole the car?"
N Sam is faithful unto death. He
is waiting somewhere for me now, and
wili wait for me until to-morrow morn
ing, if I don't find him."

NO DANCE; NO COLOR LINE
East Orange High School Class
Solves Its Problem.
[By Telegraph to The Tribune. 1
East Orange, X. J., June 20.— The
problem of the color line at a dance of
the seniors of the East Orange High
School was solved to-day by the can
cellation of the dance, which was to
! have been held on Friday night at the
Woman's Club of Orange.
The insistence of several negro girls
! in their right to attend the dance, in
I spite of the unwillingness of the class
{ to let them in. caused a stir in the city
last. week. The tickets were distributed,
but none had been sent to the Misses
Vandervall. negroes, who made a de
mand for them and succeeded two days
later in getting one ticket for Isabella
Vandervall. The second was withheld
on the ground that Irene Vandervali.
though graduating this year, had been
dropped from the 19U0 class on account
or failure in some of her studies. Her
father. Jam*>s N. Vandervall, announced
last week that he was going to get that
second ticket, and the members of the
class stoutly maintained that he was
not. It stood that way to-day when the
unexpected announcement that the
dance was to be cancelled reached the
Woman's Club.
ENGLAND'S ARMY PAGEANT
A Wonderful Show on the Ful
ham Palace Grounds.
;liv Cable to T>i» Tribune.]
London, June 30.— The army pageant,
which opened to-day on the grounds of
Fuiham Palace in the presence of Lord
Roberts and a great assemblage of
wealth and fashion, is a marvel of or
ganization. The evolution of arms, cos
tumesand tactics was shown in the prol
ogue dealing with the Romans and an
cient Britons, in a series of sixteen bat
tles from the times ©f Kings Arthur and
Alfred to Naseby. and in tnx famous en
gagements of the eighteenth and nine
teenth centuries.
It was at once a splendid pageant of
mediaeval armor and a series of dra
matic battle pictures, with exciting cav
alry charges, infantry rushes, hand-to
hand combats and rapid manoeuvres of
soldiers. Not one of recent British
pageants has equalled it in the manage
ment of large masses of men and
horses.
About four thousand supers and regu
lar troops swept across the field of
twenty-live acres, and with realistic falls
of wounded men from the galloping
horses and dashing battle charges there
as action enough to satisfy the theatri
cal master of the pageant. F. R. Benson,
who himself appeared as Henry V.
Hastings. Crecy and Agincourt were
brilliant spectacles, and Naseby was a
fiercely contested fight between the Cav
aliers and Roundheads; but the greatest
enthusiasm was caused by the charge of
Jeanne d'Arc at Patay, the heroine be
ing impersonated by Mrs. Hohler. an ac
complished horsewoman and a daughter
of a veteran of Balaklava. Splendid
also was Marlhoroughs victory at Mal
plaquet. with Handel's -Te Deum"
played by an orchestra of three hundred
musicians, and the most impressive was
the retreat from <"'orunna, with the death
of Sir John Moore.
The resources of modern pageantry
have been carried to the highest point
in this glorious spectacle.

MEXICO CHECKS REVOLT
Martial Law Proclaimed in the
Border Towns.
ARMS FROM U. S. SEIZED
Ammunition Also Smuggled
Across Border — Hundreds
of Arrests Made.
Cananea, Mexico. June 20. — The pre
mature discovery of smuggled arms and
ammunition, followed by the arrest of
leaders of the discontented faction and
the proclamation of martial law in
Cananea and other border towns, prob
ably has checked and discouraged a
serious outbreak , agajnst the Mexican
government scheduled to • take place on
June 26 /election day)
The revolutionary movement origin
ated among young men of Northern
Mexico, followers, it is said, of General
Bernardo Reyes, now in Europe, and of
Senor Madero, candidate for President,
now under arrest in Monterey on the
charge of causing crowds to form. The
discontented faction demands political
liberty, free speech and the "right to
vote." They announce that th^y will go
to the polls on election day prepared to
fight if their constitutional rights are de
nied.
The discovery that men were smug
gling arms across the border from the
Tnited States was followed by police
raids in many villages of Northern Bo
nora. Four men were arrested yester
day at Villa Verde, and a number of
rifies and revolvers and four thousand
rounds of ammunition were raptured.
At Chivectria, near Cananea, forty
five rifles with ammunition were capt
ured, and at Buena Vista one house
yielded twelve rifles with ammunition.
Dealers at Bisbee, Douglas and Naco,
Ariz., have sold all the rifles and ammu
nition in stock. The police are now con
ducting a house to house search for arms
in all the border towns.
Cananea, the centre of the movement,
is guarded by two companies of the 25th
Infantry and a company of rurales un
der Colonel Emotio Kopterlltzky The
gendarmes are under arms General
Torrez has assured the Cananea author *
ties that he will send four hundred men
by special train, if necessary.
Hundreds of arrests for causing a dis
turbance in public meetings have been
made throughout Sonora and leaders of
the revolutionary movement have been
deported. Twelve leaders at Cananea
have been taken to Hermosilla, where
they will be held until after the elec
tions. The troops have orders to dis
perse any gathering of fifty or more per

magistrate lives, the clerk said that he
had not seen the magistrate for some

Action broadening the resolution un
der which the legislative proposed graft
■ hunt is to be conducted.
Study of the financial problems of t'n9
state, with a view to working cut soma
adequate method of bringing the incoms
up to the demands on it, with the great
annual increase in the demands.
The Governor's recommendation for
direct nominations legislation was a
I foregone conclusion; hia recommenda
tion for study of the state financial
problems. in vie^r of his sweeping re
ductions in appropriations, was not un
expected, but his direction that the
legislators take up again the graft hunt
problem, which precipitated a fight quite
> as bitter as did thj» direct nominations
issue at the reg ~ session, was en
tirely unexpected, .i struck th» anti-
I Hughes men with the *■ rce of almost a
! physical blow. So far as can be deter
mined to-night it has knocked sky high
any tentative plans which the bosses,
I may have been making for the handling
i of the extra session.
Two Issues Reopened.
By this message the Governor has re
opened the two issues on which the
tosses defeated him at the regular ses
sion, reopened them under unusual cir
cumstances such that tl.e maximum of
public Interest and public scrutiny will
attend the Legislature's slightest ac
tion. It is evident from the informal
comment among legislators and poli
ticians to-night that they realize this
keenly. It is quite evident also that
whatever effect it may have eventually
on their action on these matters, the
anti-Hughes Republicans have begun to
perceive that t> a considerable extent
their party's- welfare this fall depends on
what they do now
Apparently there is general knowledge
in political circles 'of the keen interest
President Taft is showing in the solu
tion of the problems of the extra session-
There was much informal discussion to
night by both sides of his recent inter
view with Postmaster Fred Greiner. of
Buffalo, and Naval Officer Kracke. of
Brooklyn. It is understood that he tali
them he believed a direct nominations
bill should be passed and the Republican
party should show itself able to keep
abreast of public sentiment. Only in
this way could it be in proper shape for
the fight this fall.
Despite this and the general evidence
of demand from the voters of the state
for a direct nominations law. it seems
certain that the opposition of the Wads
worth-Barnes-Woodruff group of Re
publicans to that and a real graft in
vestigation will be as bitter as ever.
Nothing has appeared yet to indicate
that they have the slightest intention
not to carry that opposition through to
the end, cost what it may. Just how
they will work at this extra session i 3
not so certain. At present both sides
to the controversy are rather up in th*
air.
Cobb Bill To Be Fut In.
Senator Cobb. the temporary president,
said to-night he had not had an oppor
tunity to talk with his colleagues. He
probably will reintroduce his so-called
compromise direct nominations bill to
morrow. Senator Davis, chairman of the
Judiciary Committee, said that if that
course was taken he would call his com
mittee together immediately and report
the bill out. so that if Senator Cobb
could obtain an emergency message
from the Governor action on the bill
could be taken at once.
"I don't believe there will be another
caucus." said Senator Davis. "I have
heard of none I don't know whether
or not one would be necessary to pass
the bill this time. Of course, the caucus
which bound its members to favorable
action on the Cobb bill at the regular
session has no effect at this extra ses
sion."
In the Assembly the direct nominations
men are making a hasty count of noses
to-night in an effort to round up signers
enough to the petition for a caucus to
make it effective. This requires forty
eight—half the Republican membership.
Assemblyman Jesse Phillips, chairman
of the caucus committee, to-day MM he
would call no caucus unless a regular
petition for one. signed by the full com
plement of names, was presented to him.
The machine men are not overjoyed at
the notion of a caucus. The direct
K machine men are not overjoyed at
rvtion of a caucus. The direct
nominations advocates believe It will re
quire only a few days* work to get the
requisite signatures to compel the call
ing of a caucus. Then they think they
will be able to make the Cobb bill a
caucus mm I
Governor's Message Read.
Official action there was none to-night
aside from the reading of the message,
after the formal organization of the
Legislature. One Incident in that at
tracted notice. Lieutenant Governor
White named Senators Davis and Grady
as the committee to notify the Governor
that the Senate was organized and ready
for business.
"I suggest the Senator from the 15tfc
