HAVANA, July 80. In spite of the asser
tlon mads yesterday by Senor Tero, necre
tary of the interior, that the killing ot three
men and the capture of a fourth man, their
leader, who had attempted to cause an up
rising In the vicinity of Bayamo, province
of Santiago, effectually ended the only
semblance of an uprising In Cuba, the ru
mors of uprisings In eastern Cuba were
fully confirmed today in the government re
ports received from the governor and other
officials of Santiago province.
These are to the effect that since the
fight Sunday last sixty armed and mounted
men have appeared outside villages in the
Cauto river district proclaiming a revolu
tion and demanding the payment of the
former members of the revolutionary army,
No acts of violence have been reported, but
the inhabitants of the Cauto region are ex
cited.
The leader of the revolutionary party la
named Pupo. II Is a brother of one of the
bandits killed by tha rural guard on Mon
day.
General Rodiigues, commander-in-chief of
the rural guard, has ordered the moblllsa
tlon of all the rural guards in eastern Cuba
and the governor of Santiago province has
been instructed to enlist as many volun
teers as may be deemed necessary to co
operate with the mounted troops.
Secretary of the Interior Tero says there
Is no doubt that the authorities will be
able to cope successfully with the situation.

General Lora. commanding the Rural
Guard of the eastern district, has tele.
graphed that he proceeded from Bayamo
to Cauto .Del Paso and returned without
seeing or hearing anything of the reported
uprising. Mayor Victoria wired from De
Las Tunas this afternoon that diligent in'
qulrles in the surrounding villages die
closed no sign of revolutionists. The
mayor says the existence of the band
now doubted.
Senor Yero and other government officials
are now inclined to believe the Santiago
authorities were misled by persistent ru
mors. Senor Rodriguez, commander-in-chief
of the Rural Guard, who Is still In Havana,
I says he believes the stories originated
through the confusion ot reports of minor
( peaceful demonstrations with those con
J cernlng the four bandits who were recently
A killed.
' Mounted Rural Guards to the number ot
300 and many volunteers are now searching
for tha reported revolutionists In the prov
inces of Santiago and Puerto Principe.
Late tonight Colonel Reyes, a revolu
tionary veteran, in whom the government
has great confidence, wired from Bantlago
province that the region was completely
tranqullised; that the people were satisfied
and that there was no reason for alarm.
General Lora telegraphed at 10:30 o'clock

originated with the bandits who were shot
on Monday and who had circulated stories
that their band numbered seventy.

GALWAY, July 30. -An extraordinary In
cident happened at Recess today while the
king and queen were at lunch. A poor
old woman approached the queen with ft
petition for the remission of the remainder
of a sentence of six months passed on her
husband. Inquiries proved that the man's
character Justified clemency, and the king,
through. the queen, remitted the sentence
on the spot. The surrounding crowd, learn
ing what had occurred, cheered wildly.
King Edward and Queen Alexandra, con
tinued their inspection 'of some ot the wild
est and most picturesque regional of Ireland
In an automobile 'today.
The start was made at 9 from Leenane,
on the shore of Klllurney bay, where, the
mayor, the local rector, the parish priest
and. a deputation representing 80,000 inhabi
tants of the wild Connemara mountains
presented an address. The king in reply
said he had already Inspected some of the
cottage industries and he wished to assure
the inhabitants that he was equally pleased
with the spirit of Industrial activity and
the warm, hearty welcome of the people,
which he and the queen would both long
remember.
The hearty tone of his majesty's speech
was received with every evidence of appreciation.
The royal party drove off in motors
through the beautiful lake and mountain
scenery, everywhere greeted loyally by the
Inhabitants, many of whom Journeyed
leagues across the mountains to catch a
sight of them.
The motor Journey ended at Recess, where
the party lunched. The town was decorated
and the hotel was surrounded by a guard
of honor of Connemara' cavalry, peasants
from the surrounding country astride sad
dleless mountain .ponies and wearing
"Jerry" hats decorated with tricolor rib
bons and green rosette.
Their majesties took a train for Galway
and arrived late In the afternoon. They
met an enthusiastic reception.
The king was presented with addresses
by the district council and other bodies, to
which he replied briefly. Their majesties
then boarded the royal' yacht, which was
lying in Galway bay.

Peasants Propel Royal Carriage."
For visiting the famous. Connemara
marble quarries near Recess the local au
thorltlcs provided a dilapidated, dirty lan
dau, with two Jaided horses and a "Jarvey"
of the usual class. It was doubted whether
their majesties would enter such an equip
age, but to the delight of the crowd of
peasants and barefooted women with red
petticoats, who lined the eteep, muddy hill,
the king, milling at the singularity of the
vehicle, entered' it without hesitation, the
queen, princess and the earl of, Dudley fol
lowing him.
The "Jarvey" was somewhat nervous, and
the king aeked a member of his suite to
mount, the box beside him. In a similar
vehicle were Lady Dudley and other women
of the queen's suite. An escort of Conne
mara cavalry completed the procession,
Progress was slow on account of mud, but
going up hill there were always a dozen
peasants who sprang to the back of the
landau to help push, the queen smiling en
couragement.
At the quarries mementoes were presented
to their majesties and returning down the
nui xne progress or me equipage was
checked by two ropes attached to the axle
to which a score of men were holding and
acting as a brake.
Throughout the utmost good humor pre

CHICAGO. July ). A brand new epi

powerlets to Impede its progress.
The new microbe responsible for the wide

the victims have been many. Including a
number of well known and eligible bachel

Those who so far have escaped Infection

antidote remains yet to Vie discovered, al

Dr. Brown first met the handsome young
widow on the Pacific coast Immediately
after his return from the Philippines, where
he had been an army surgeon. Mrs. Gibson
recently visited this city. Last week she
renewed her acquaintance with Dr. Brown.
Monday afternoon the physician told Mrs.
Gibson that his Chicago- visit being at an
end, he was going to return to his Ne
braska home' the next day and asked her
to become the wife of a country practi

systems of both so Ineradlcally that an en

ensued. The next day a marriage license
was secured. Rev. Dr. Freeman's services
were enlisted and at 6:30 the overland flyer
on the Chicago & Northwestern railroad
sped on its westward way with the happy
young couple billing and cooing In a Pull

Only two of their friends, guests of the
Luzerne, were In the secret of their Illness

ROME. July SO The last tribute was
paid to the late Pope Leo this morning,
with the third great requiem mass Cele
brated In the Slatlne chapel ot the Vatican,
and the function was no less ceremonious
and Imposing than the other two. .
While there was perhaps fewer persons
present, there was a greater display ot
gotgeous unlforma Ot the sixty-two cardi
nals now In Rome all attended the mass
except Cardinal Cretonlo, prefect of the
congregation of sacred relics, who was 111.
The picture presented by the procession
of cardinals. In violet robes and red capes
bordered with ermine, escorted by noble
guards in scarlet unlforma and with drawn
swords, the scene being softened by the
clouds of Incense and the chapel resounding
with the strains of the incomparable Slstlne
choir singing "Libera me Domlne," made
those present feel as though lifted Into an
other world.
Prayers for tho Cnrdlnnln.
In the churches of Rome today began the
offering of prayers to the Holy Ghost to as
sist and enlighten the cardinals to choose
the right man to ait In the chair of St.
Peter. x . '
During the conclave the blessed sacra
ment will be exposed In several churches for
the special prayers of the faithful, with the
same object In view.
The mayor of Carpenito, the birthplace of
Pope Leo, who proposed to erect with local
contributions a monument to Leo XIII on
top of the Leplnl mountains, surrounding
the village of Carpenelo,. finding that his
project waa checked by the large amount of
money required, Intends to make It an In
ternational tribute to the late pontiff and
will ask all countrtea to Join In the move
ment. He says he expects considerable con
tributions, especially from America..
Prophecy la Recalled.
People arc now ' rocalllng a prophecy
which, at the time it was made,. produced
considerable talk among the superstitious
who held It to be an Inkling ot who will ho ,
the next pope, so much so. thaf severs! r
large beta were made In f.ioor Of the eardl-.

Many years ago the late Cardinal Faro-', V '
chl, who was not then even a bishop, ono
day .met an old woman'ln the country. She
was a typical wltoh In appearance and
planted herself before Parocchl, saying:
"The bishop of Santa Rufinl will be tho .
next pope." ,
The woman refused to say anything more.
Parocchl repeated the tale, which gained
added circulation when he was appointed to
that see, and before his death he waa con
sidered to be the most likely successor of
Pope Leo. When Parocchl was dying he re
peated the ' story ot the old woman's
prophecy. The famous blshoprlo of Santa
Rufinl was afterwards given to Cardinal
Serafino Vannutelll, and now people are
asking themselves, Will the prophecy comj -true
after all?

Foreign office most exhaustive assurances
that all the necessary measures have been
taken to Insure material and moral lib

The Italia says the constitution left by
Pope Leo to the oonclave has been distrlb
uted among thfe cardinals.
, According to this authority it was writ
ten in Latin In 18&2, and recalls former
constitutions and conclaves, especially
that of Flux IX, and then complains tit
the condition of tho Holy See "under hoi
tile domination," and recommends the
quick election of a new pope. It advises
that the conclave be held In Rome, unless
the sacred college Is not In the enjoyment
of full liberty, and recommends the main
tenance of the pontiffs rights. It calls for
the election of a new pope, not according
to the personal preferences of tha car
dinals but according to the dictation of
their consciences. Inspired only by the wel
fare of the church.
On the cover of tha pamphlet containing
the "constitution" ia written "to ba kept
with most absolute secrecy and with the
duty of returning It."
The cardinals today visited the cells
they are to occupy during the conclave
and It cannot be said that they returned
enthusiastic over the Idea ot being con
fined, " perhaps tor some time. In rooms
without running water and necessary ven

Perhaps the most dissatisfied waa Car

for his work.
