The President Borne visitors with him and Captain Loeffler said he could not give her admissi.-n. Mrs. Sykes then said that she had a ticket for Europe In her pocket and would not wait another minute. "I want peace," she loudly exclaimed, as she started back down the b. "1 am going tn have it, too, or plunge the whole world in war. what I'm after." All the way to h<r carriage she talked loud ly and incoherently, but was not Interferred with.

In I north Lawton tra\ - ■ as! .: the Rio Grande parallel to it. His march was through a rough and little tra country toward the fool of the moun tain ranges. It was a hard journey and the insurgents slipped away before they could be I . n between Lawton Kobbe and Mac-Arthur's armies. The reported dissoluti< n of the insur forces, which are said to be in bad condition at Tarlae, and the statement in General <vis' dispatch that he had c i--'iU' i st for an armistice, are taken to indicate that there is some likelihood that the com mission's i ffer of a form of govern may be speedily accepted. That is a matter, however, on which there is no official information to speculate. No particular Importance is attached to the statement that the Filipinos are threatening trouble In the s<>uth. The American line in this direction is under rnand of General Ovenshine and stretches across a narrow neck of land ■ ■ I'-A miles south of Manila between the seacoast and Lacuna de Bai. It is a position which the Filipinos could not force under any conceivable* con dition, while the tin clad fleet of the iagoon and the warships off the coast would be able to make the narrow stretch of country between them a very unhealthy resort tor any large i if insurgents. The written proposition submitted to th.-- Filipinos to-day at Manila by the American commission was framed in Washington by Secretary Hay. The only error i.n the printed copy of its tits is th" of the qualifi cation "principle" in the statement of the judges to be appointed by the President. It is the intention to give the Filipinos, just as the President has promised, as large a measure of self government as they seem aM" t" ex se with safety to themselves and due regard to the welfare of other na tions. Therefore, it is proposed to al low them to choose their own inferior judicial officials to begin with and per haps the principle may be extended if it works well in the lower grades. President Schurman did not report to Secretary Hay, hence it is assumed that the conference up to this point has not yet been productive of results as to warrant a statement. -•- DEWEY TO BE DULY HONORED AT HONGKONG NEW YORK.

TROUBLE IN THE SANTA CLARA HIGH SCHOOL SAN* JOSE, May 22.— Trouble is brewing \ In the Santa Clara High School between : the pupils who seceded from the San Jose High School when Professor L. R. Smith j was dismissed and the local pupils. So j wide is the breach that David Henderson, president of the Santa Clara Board of Education, has resigned his office rather! than fill the trying place of arbitrator. The selection ol the place where the; graduating exercises of the High School! societies are to be h«sld has i aroused the ill feeling. The San j Jose pupils outnumber the Santa Clara ites and they boldly decided to have the j exercises held at the Victory Theater In this city. They wanted to bring the I school graduation exercises here, but the I trust-, s stepped in and chose the Uni versity of the Pacific as the place. This i is located halfway between the two towns ' and the Santa Clara pupils think the San ' JOM students want too much. The trou- j ble may be as serious as the strike in the local high school last year. CHARGES ARE BASELESS.

CLASS OF '99 BIDS FAREWELL TO ALMA MATER Stanford Men and Women Who Go Forth to Fight Life's Battles. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, May 22.— Senior class day opened with services in the chapel this morning. Ralph Arnold, president of the class, made a short ad dress, after which • he introduced Ralph Filcher, who 1 proceeded to relate the his tory of the class. He said in part:. .V,,' The class upon entering college began to dab ble in athletics and literature. Not content with the ordinary pursuits of editing the dif ferent college- papers, In their junior year they took upon themselves the task of petting cut the best annual ever produced at Stanford. The book, according to the time honored costom, did not go into the hands of a receiver, but we can forgive our manager- for this. The speaker dilated at length upon the intellectual abilities of his class gnd then took up athletics. Five star football players, and worthy repre sentatives "on the diamond and track,- we are proud to claim. In addition to the records of the' individual men, as evidence of the ac tivity which "99 stands for In athletic lines, the work of which has been done toward se curing that much needed institution— a train ing house— stnds boldly in the front. . All have agreed upon th,- desirability of such a house; many have suggested plans to secure it; but it has remained for '99 to act. An for the social side of life, '99 began bril liantly and has consistently upheld the repu tation gained four years ago. Our freshmen glee was the first affair of the kind ever given. Our junior hop was conceded to have been unsurpassed. Mr. Filcher then proceeded to praise certain members of his class. Said he. The most famous men, who/through mistake, did enter college with any other clases, hve since seen the error of their way and allied themselves with '99. For their good taste— that of the faculty— the highest praise is due. With the graduation of '99 there leave col lege the last of those men who have known and appreciated the spirit of the pioneers of '95, whose acquaintance has been intimate with the men who made the present undergraduate life of Stanford what it is; who developed its traditions, its pleasures, and its college spirit. We will be the only class that. has known both the Intimate fellowship of the old university and the larger life of the new. We entered Stanford during her darkest hour. Others who came after us and share in the great tide of prosperity, may know the affec tion that comes from its great bounty, but only those who have felt the hopes and fears through which the founders had to struggle can ever experience such deep personal love for these revered arches as is shared by the members of '99. Mr. Suzzallo delivered the last will and testament of the class. To several society men were bequeathed the benches in the arboretum, provided that the use of the benches shall be strictly limited to the hours between 10 p. m. and 2 a. m. All the remaining Bull Durham and dead soldiers situate, lying and being within any tene ment, structure or edifice on the campus were bequeathed to the Runt Club. To Carl Hayden, rough rider of Tempo. \ Ariz was bequeathed all the hair tonic now in the possession of Judge Ellas. The , young ladies of Roble inherited undying Love and affection, to be enjoyed by them share and share alike. V r v' Professor Murray spoke to the class about the warm relations existing be tween .professors and students, after which the audience adjourned to the quadrangle, where the class plate was in serted in the pavement under the arcades Dr Jordan gave the history of Stanford from the day of its founding, through its darkest hours to the present. Many notable guests were present, among whom were Rev. Burt tstees Howard of Los Angeles. ■ The. members of the graduating class BACHELORS OF ARTS. ■ ' - In Greek-Florence Bertha Whittler; Kiver- M ln Latin— Faith Anderson, Palo Alto; Johann Adolph Bather.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, May 22 --"Atalanta In Stanford," a fantasy in four acts, written by W. H. .Irwin, '99, was presented in Encina gymnasium this afternoon. Many visitors were present and the "gym" could not comfortably seat the crowd. In the play the gpds and goddesses of ancient Greece are transported to the ; campus, and, during Dr. Jordan's ab sence, he having accepted a position on th»- Bering Sea Sea! Commission, the god Jupiter rules the university as president. His family rules him. As the ancient story goes, Atalanta was finally beaten in a foot race and her heart and hand won. after many suitors had failed and been put to death. So At alanta in Stanford was won in the same way by "Jack" Blair, who had the aid of Mercury, bod of his dad, Jupiter. Mer- ■ cury could assume any shape he desired and ran the race all but the last lap, ! when 'Jack" linished it. winning by two lengths. "Dick" Culver as Jupiter and president of the University, was a suc cess and would no doubt have pleased as president in reality those students who j are inclined to roystering, for he was a ' m^rry old soul. He permitted only those liberties which were consistent with good I scholarship, but every' form of gaiety ; seemed consistent. Without any stretch | of the imagination he reminded "his audi- i ence of Edwin Stevens. The football game as it will be played in future years was introduced. It will de- ! llgrht esthetic people, for it is played in dresa suits and a beribboned ball Is gen tly handled from one to another, with many apologies. "The Ravings of Pringle." by Riley, brought down the house. Pringle was supposed to be in an insane asylum from the effects of losing the "C" fence. Another laughable feature was the drill by the "Berkeley Cadets." A sentimental love scene between Apollo, who is blase, and Hattie Blake was cleverly sung and acted. Claire Strohn did some good "stunts" with his feet and the chorus of gods, goddesses, ' Japs, co-eds and quadrangle cavaliers was almost perfect. The show was a success and "Bill" Irwin, the author, was called to the front for a talk. The cast for the farce was as follows: Atalanta, devoted to athletics Miss C. Rose Jar-k Blair, devoted to Atalanta W. M. Erb Hattie Blake, a freshman Miss E. B. Zucker i A Uypsy Miss E. Lewis \ Jupiter, who conducts Olympus R. K. Culver i Juno, who conducts Jupiter Mist H. Holmes Venus, popular in society Miss \V. Morgan Mercury, a freshman but keen —J. S. Brlseoe Apollo, who is blase P. R. Itiley Mar? •. A. J. Van Kaathoven Neptune Claire .Strohn. Adder Claws, who rules Encina J. S. Briscoe Chorus or" koclp, fjoddesses, Japs, co-eda and quadrangle cavaliers. The seniors, freed from all further care ' in the matter of studies and credits, en- , Joyed themselves to-night by tripping the light fantastic to the tunes of Yank's ; orchestra. It was the society event of the year. Flcancially it was a success, as the hall was crowded and each claw-hammer coat that entered had to pungle up $5 for itself and the accompanying lady, besides squandering 50 cents for necessary pro grammes. The hall was beautifully dec orated, the women handsomely gowned in evening costume, and calcium lights added to the brilliant effect. Among the noted guests were ex-Governor Markham, Timothy Hopkins and T,urt Estes Howard. The patronesses were. Mesdames Tim othy Hopkins, David Starr Jordan, J. C. Branner, G. H. Gillman. Braden, Rice, Pierce. Cubberly, J. P. Smith, Pease, Matzke, Griffin, Van Kaathoven. Barnard, Holmes. Murray. Evans'. Sanford, Howard G. Stevenson and Miss Lillian Ray. MORE IMPRESSIVE RITUAL IS WANTED Resolution Arouses a Spirited Debate in the B'nai B'rith Session. LOUISVILLE, May 22.— At the second session of the Independent Order of B'nal B'rith to-day a resolution was offered pe titioning the Grand Lodge, which will meet In San Francisco, to introduce a more impressive ritual. This aroused a spirited debate, and it was at last re ferred to the ritual committee. A memorial service was held in honor of the late Isador Bush, the Jewish phi lanthropist of St. Louis, who died re cently. The project to establish a hospital at Denver, Colo., for Jewish consumptives at an outlay of $15,000 a year was dis cussed at great length in the afternoon session. Final action was delayed until to-morrow. Jacob Furth, the St. Louts £hilanthroplst, and Dr. Alfred Muller of >en«ver led the fight for the hospital. St. Louis was decided upon as the place of meeting in 1900. GRAIN SHOVELERS STRIKE IS SETTLED BUFFALO, May 23, 2:45 a. m.— The grain shovelers' strike has been settled.

The Paris World's Fair Commission Probably Will Name Major Ben C. Truman as Its Secretary. Special Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, May 22.— Governor Henry T. Gage arrived on the early train this morning. He left for his ranch near i Downey an hour after his arrival, to avoid the persistent office-seeker, of j whom Gage admits he is tired. The Governor Intends to fill the two va cancies on the Whittier Reform School board before he leaves, if the factions now contesting for control of the school shall agree. Should this be found impos sible, the Governor will, it was intimated to-day, appoint a board which shall se lect as Superintendent Van Alstyne's sue- j cessor neither Dr. Barber nor Sherman I Smith. In that event T. E. Newlin. for- ! merly County Cterk, or Mayor M. T. | Owens will be chosen to preside over the dt'stlnies of the school. "A great many persons are fooling ; themselves Into the belief that I will ! appoint a superintendent of the State School at Whittier," said Mr. Gage. "I ! am getting letters and telegrams by the j cord, asking about Whittier and other j places. I have absolutely nothing to do j with the appointment ot a superintend- j rnt. After I have named the .trustees for the institution I expect them to choose the superintendent. It is so with the ! normal schools and the university. When I name the trustees or the regents it is | all left to them to select a superintendent j or president. I shall appoint no trustees j for Whittier until after I have visited the institution." Mr. Gage's friends to-night insist that he has come south with the intention of ; visiting all the public institutions in | Southern California. In reply to a direct j question the Governor said he had not ap pointed a Labor Commissioner, and was j looking over petitions. Next Monday the Governor, accom- j panied by Mrs. Gage and Mr. and Mrs. George J. Denis, will leave for Yosemite. Dr. E. A. Bryant also- will be in the party and Senator and Mrs. Stephen M. White may take the trip. L. L. Maude of Riverside, who has just been appointed State Highway Commis sioner, will, it is «aid, name Assembly man Miller of Clearw/uer as his secretary. Mr. Miller voted for Colonel D. M. Burns ' for T'nited States Senator on the day the I recent Legislature adjourned. Major Ben C. Truman said to-day the | Paris Commission would meet in San j Francisco for organization in about ten | days. Regarding the appointment of a i secretary Mr. Truman said: "That will not be determined until the Commissioners get together. .1 think the j secretary will be one of the throe Commis- ' sioners. I am averse to appointing an outside secretary, who would have ex- < ecutive power. If my colleagues think as I do the only appointments to be made i will be clerical. I think we should have some good men look after the interests of their respective localities. Most of the ' help we will need we can employ better in Paris." Mr. Truman's friends insist to-night ! that this practically means the appoint- j ment of Truman himself. A now appli- j cant for secretary appeared to-day in Otheman E. Stevens, who, it is said, has ! the ear of Gage and his friends. Martin Aguirre, the new warden of San I Quentin, will consult with Governor Gage ! as to his line of policy before he assumes j office on July 1. There are to be no whole sale discharges of prison guards and other ! employes, as was hoped by the hundreds of persons who have for w r ecks been seek ing positions at the penitentiary, although a weeding out is to be made.

AN INFANT IS STOLEN NOTE WRITTEN TO THE MOTHER, WHO MAY DIE The Abductors Declare That the Lit tle One and Nursegirl Are Safe if No Fuss Is Made. Special Dispatch to The CalV NEW YORK. May 22.— What ap peared to be a bold case of kidnaping a child was reported to the police to day, and a score of detectives were at once sent out In an endeavor to arre^.^^ the offenders. The missing child i.-^ Marion, the eighteen-months-ola daughter of Arthur Clark, an employe of a publishing firm. She was taken, the police say, by a nurse named Carrie Jnnes, who was hired last week by the Clarks through an advertisement. The whole thing seems to have been a cleverly laid plot. The child wa> taker, out yesterday afternoon by the nurse and the empty baby carriage was found by the police in Central Park. Soon afterward Mrs. Clark received this letter: "Mrs. Clark— Do not look for your nurse and baby. They are safe in our possession, where they will remain for the present. If the matter is kept out of the hands of the police and news papers you will get your baby back safe and sound. If, instead, you make a big time about it and publish it all over we will see to it that you never see her alive again. We are driven t>> this by the fact that we cannot get work and one of us has a child dying through want of proper treatment and nourishment. Your baby is safe and in good hands. The nurse girl is still with her. If everything is quiet, you will hear from us Monday or Tuesday." There is evidence to show that the nurse girl wrote the letter. Mrs. Clark is in a serious condition, and the suspense may cause her death. PLANS FOR THE VALLEY ROAD DEPOT AT FRESNO It Is Said the Division Headquarters Will Be Removed From Stockton.
