Advices From Steever.
Colonel Stecver's telegram follows:
"'Just returned from Fnbcns, Tex.,
thirty miles southeast of El Paso, and
nearly opposite Guadalupe, Mexico. The
Mexican federals from tho direction of
OJInajra attacked San Ignaclo, which la
east of Guadalupe, Sunday night, and
met llttli) resistance. Tho federals at
tacked Guadalupe about noon Monday
and captured same with llttla difficulty.
The federal advance guard under com
mand of Major Sanchsz. numbers 150
men. followed by tho main body, num
bering: more than 6M.
"The hebels sent Kast from Juarez
today a force of nearly 200 to retake
Guadalupe. Could see their dust as
they moved eastward. Two hours
later this rebel column was rapidly
returning towards Juarez.
"Have nlaced a company of Infantry
and a troop of Cavalry at Fabens' to
vrevent violation of the neutrality
laws. Have been watching this move
ment from OJinaga for several weeks.
Btteever."
Fight With Indians.
At the State Department today It
was reported that In the south of
Mexico a small engagement Is said
to have occurred between the fed
orals and Juchltecos Indians near
Juchttan In which the federals had
the advantage. Conditions In Oaxaca
and Tamaullpas seem to.be bad ac
cording to officials dispatches. The
commander of the federal forces sta
tioned at Nogales has been arrested
nt Hermoslllo charged with com
plicity in a revolutionary plot Insti
gated by political exiles In Nogales.
Arizona. Twenty-three officials and
private citizens were arrested at
Maedalena on a similar charge. In
the State or Ensenada conditions re
main quiet.
Of the 127 refugees who boarded
the Buford at Sallna Cruz, twenty
seven are said to have come from
Chiapas.
New Cabinet for Chile.
The State Department was today in
formed that a new cabinet had been
(strong coalition of the liberal-democratic
and conservative parties. The port
folio of the department of the interior
has been given to Guillermo rtivera,
Eenator from Valparaiso, and that of
foreign affairs to Joaquin Flgueroa,
one of the senators from Santiago.
Sought for more than fifty years by
Southerners who would keep It as one
of the great memorials of the South, the
original seat of the Confederacy haH at
last been found in the possession of
Rear Admiral Thomas O. Selfrldge, U.
S. N retired, at his home In this city.
Rear Admiral Selfrldge has permitted
the seal to be taken to Richmond, Va.,
where It Is nov locked in a vault at the
Jefferson Hotel. During the latter part
of the time that It has been sought by
natives of the Southland the great seal
has been snugly encased In a safe In
tho Selfrldge residence, 1S67 Kalorama
road.
It Is the purpose of the Richmond
residents having at heart the desire to
preserve the relic to have It Identified
by the English firm which manufac
tured it. After this identification the
seal will be placed permanently In some
Richmond Institution, where it can be
viewed by the public.
In turning the seal over to the Vir
ginians, Admiral Selfrldge gave them
a letter attesting to Its authenticity and
the manner in yhlch it came into his
possession.
The possession of the seal was traced
to Admiral Selfrldge through records
found In the Library of Congress.
These records show that the great me
morial of the Confederacy was removed
by a clerk In the Confederate State
Department from Richmond when thu
city was evacuated.
The seal and valuable papers were af
terward sold to the United States Gov
ernment through Col. John T. Pickett
in 1S72 for 175,000. and Selfrldge acted
as agent for the Government in re
ceiving them at Hamilton, Ontario. In
recognition of his services on that oc
casion tho seal was presented to Self
rldge. SAYS 2,000 CHURCHES

Presbyterian Assembly Hears
Startling Assertion' by
Officer.
LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 21.-That
there are 2,000 pastorless churches in
the Presbyterian denomination was the
assertion made by Dr. Joseph Wilson
Cochran, secretary of the board of
education, to the general assembly to
day. Dt. Cochran appealed for better finan
cial support of the ministers, declaring
that young men would not ceiard the
ministry as a man's job until the
church paid a man's wages.
"We are gaining barely enough men
to supply the church," he said. ''In
calling for more men we are calling for
heroes who must face starvation
wages."
One result of merging the ministerial
relief and ministerial sustcnation funds
Is expected to be that annuities as high
as $500 can be paid to ministers out of
service, whereas ' the maximum has
been $300. The project to ralBe a fund
of $10,000,000 to provide adequate pen
sions will be pushed.
