SUfps Through the Afternoon and Af>er Dinner
Retires at an Early Hour -Citizens of
Thorrasville Respfd His
Desire for Rest.
* Thomasville, Ga., March I.”*. —Presi-
dent McKinley rested today, lie enjoy
ed the first complete day's relaxation
from the cares of office, or the fatigues
of travel that he has had in many
months. No politieian came to sec him
on matters of executive administration,
party policy or public offices. The resi
dents of Thoniasville respected his wish
that he should he fr<*e from callers or
functions, and the few things of a per
sonal nature which it was necessary
he should attend to wore quickly dis
patched through Assistant Secretary
t’ortelyou, and the present prospect is
tomorrow will be much as today, va
ried only in the little details that make
one days’s life in an agreeable and cul
tured home in a pleasant winter resort
different from the day before. All de
tails of the (lovernnient's business are
being attended to in Washington, and
only urgent matters of policy that pos
sibly may develop will be laid before the
President here. The opinion of the
people of Thoniasville is that .Mr. Mc-
Kinley is in actual need of the rest he
is beginning to take. They remember
him its he was four years ago when in
Thoniasville prior to Itis nomination,
In* and Senator Hanna held important
conferences with their lieutenants in till
sections of the country. They do not
think ho looks sick today, but all of those
who saw much of hint then say that
his appearance does not evidence the
> buoyant, alert, vigorous strength of that
- time. He plainly sHtows. in their opinion,
the strain and fatigue of incessant de
votion to the duties of his position in
the campaign prior to his election and
of his office during the momentous •first
half of his administration. He look*
tired .And fagged. Ilis recuperation,
power, which is prompt and strong,.,As
serted itself, in fact, to some dejtm> af
ter a drive this forenoon and' rest, it
is thought by those intimately associa
ted with him that rest is ".fi he needs.
This morning Senator I,l;mna took his
guest on a carriage dyTve about five
miles front town to the country home
of Mr. Wyman Jkmos. the Senator’s
brother-in-law. .'fhe weather was mild,
a good breeze/ 'was stirring through, the
pines and Lie gathering clouds that in
ihc after#,',on resulted in a shower of
rain. ‘tfiTelded the party from the sun.
The President enjoyed the drive, and his
brightness on his return showed it had
/lone hint good. The party was home
for lunch, and soon afterwards the
President went to bed for tin l afternoon,
While Senator Hanna drove down town
on a little business, and Vice President
Hobart read the newspapers and his
mail. After dinner Senator Hanna and
liis guests chatted a while, and the
President retired early.
It can be stated authoritatively, and
for the purpose of silencing all con
trary reports, that rest for the Presi
dent is the sole object of Ihi< trip. No
jHtlitical conferences have Itecn held or
are in contemplation here. Reports
having been telegraphed from Wash
ington that a conference would be held
here # to decide whether Vice President
Hobart would be again the party’s can
didate for the Vice Presidency, the As
sociated Press correspondent went to
Senator Hanna’s house daring the after
noon to inquire about them. lie passed
Senator Hanna going down town for a
shave, learned that the President was
asleep and met the Vice President in
ihe library. Mr. Hobart said:
"I don’t care to talk aliont the re
port; it’s too ridiculous. I don’t expect
any politician to come here. As to con
ferring with the President and Senator
Hanna. 1 would not come all the Way
to Thoniasville for that. I can sec
them three times a day in Washington.''
MARINES 1 . CAVITE.
Navy Department to Send One Thous
and Men There.
Washington. March 15.—1 iis s-Tul to
he the intention of the Navy Department
to sind l.OtlO marines to Cavite to take
care of the Navy's inter -s*s there. It
is the purpose to send a Colonel in com
mand of these men, although until the
full regiment is on the settle tic marines
will r main under '.he command of
•Major At way C. Berrvnian, the senior
officer of the corps now in the Philip
pines.
This seems to be a very large numbir
of marines to station at or.? nary yard,
but tin* explanation is that the Cavite
station is the largest in the possession
of the United stales, including ala r.t
.seventy square miles of land with thir
teen miles of water fruit. On the
Government lands are many squatter*-
iiiul small towns, and a large number
of men will b required to i iromrhl v
police this territory.
The work of repairing the three Span
ish gunboats in Manila bay is reported
to he progressing rapidly at Hong Kong
under the direction of Constructor Capps
and Assistant Constructor Hobson. The
vessels arc said to he in excdleut condi
tion as to machinery, and even befora
they went into dry dock to he repaired,
the Isla de Luzon and the Isla do Cuba
made twolvn knots undo! their own
steam and tin* Don Juan de Austria wa
i nly about a knot behind.
The constructors' reports to the Navy
Department show that the other sunken
Spanish warships have been so badly
damaged as to lie not worth the cost
•of raising and repairing.
The Equipment Bureau of the Navy
[Department is now loading at Newport
News 5.000 toils of coal to be taken to
Manila. This coni will go through th<
Suez Canal, and thence to Admiral
Dewey's fleet. All the coal used by
the navy in the Philippines and all coal
stored at Honolulu is sent from the At
lantic seaboard, mostly from Newport
News or Baltimore. The department
has shipped 40.000 tons to Manila since
the war began. The con! sent by
steamers goes through the Suez Canal,
and that in sailing vessels around the
Cape of Good Hope. The trip through
the canal takes nlimit fifty days, and tin*
sailing vessels make it in five months.
The coal for Honolulu is sent by the
way of Cape Jlorn. Nearly all the
sailing vessels used are American, while
most of the steamers are British. There
are von few large American steam col
liers.
Some suggestion has been mad that
eon! might be taken front the Pacific
Coast, but the tests made of coal mined
there have not been satisfactory to the
Navy Department. Some coal, but not
much, has been purchased in Australia
and sent to the Philippines.
If is expected that Gen. Otis will be
authorized to organize three or four regi
ments of the provisional army out of
the volunteers from the various States
now at Manila when the time comes for
mustering out these volunteers. At
present: the volunteers, it is stated at the
War Department, do not want to come
home, having the American determina
tion not to “re'fr at while under lire."
HELD COURT IN THE BRUSH.
Result of Conflict Between Slate and
Federal Judiciary.
Kansas City. March 15. —The Judges
of St. Clair county, who arc trying to
keep out of the hands of Federal Court
officers, introduced an innovation today
by holding court in the brush, where the
marshals could not find them.
The tangle is becoming decidedly com
plicated. Judges Nevitt. Lyons and
Will, who served until January, and
who spent the time in jail here for re
fusing to obey the Federal Court's or
der to make a tax levy to pay the dis
puted issue of St. Clair county bonds,
were released when their term of office
expired.
ll was held, as the now Judges had
not qualified, the old ones were still in
office, and an order was issued direct
ing them to make the levy today, and
the order was duly served upon them.
Yesterday United States Marshal
Durham learned that the new Judges
intended to qualify, and tints make the
court's order of no avail. He yvnt
down to Osceola in disguise, succeeded
in locating two of the new .l/.'qgcs, and
served the order on them.
They had not yet l M \ n sworn in. but
Durham did not know it. Immediately
afterward they qualified, and then, be
fore Durham could again serve the or
der. they mounted their horses and rode
out of town. Today they sent for the
county clerk and held court in the brush,
wlurth* the marshals were unable to lo

RED CROSS WORK IN CUBA.
A Hospital Will Be Established at Ha
vana for Civilians.
Washington, March 15. 'Pile Govern
ment having requested ihc Red Cross
to take up the hospital work in Cuba,
sheltering the homeless and caring for
the sick, a Red Cross staff will start for
Havana tomorrow to join the lied
Cross agents already there.
One of the first matters that will en
gage their attention will be the estalt
iishmenl of a hospital in Havana for
the use of Americans and other civil
ians where they can receive the same
attention that they would in their own
countries. Hospitals will be opened in
different parts of the island as fast as
the agents can make arrangements for
them, and doctors and trained nurses
will be sent from here as they are
needed. Additional lied Cross repre
sentatives will soon he sent to Manila.

COMPLIMENT ARY WORDS.
MR- CHOATE RECEIVES AN OVATiON
In Response he Said hewasGlad ofOppoilunify
of Expressing Our Appreciation of
the Friendship of Great
Britain.
London, March 15.—Joseph H. Choate,
!h<> United States Ambassador to the
Court of St. James, made his first pub-j
lie appearance in England at the ban
quet <>f the Association of Chamliers of I
Commerce of the United Kingdom, j
which was held at the Metropole Hotel, |
ibis There was a brilliant and
distinguished gathering, about 250 per- j
sons having been invited to meet the
Ambassador, including the Lord Chief
Justice of England, Haron Russell of
Killowen: the Honorable Sir Henry
Stafford Northeole. the President of the
Association; the Prime Minister, the
Marquis of Salisbury; the Earl of Jer
sey. the Earl of Dartmouth, Lord Reay,
Rear Admiral Lord Charles Reresford. 1
the Right Honorable C. T. Ritchie.
President of the Board of Trade; James
It. Carter, second Secretary of the ,
United States Embassy and many mem- .
Iters of Parliament.
Mr. Choate, who. on arriving, was
heartily welcomed by the chairman and
officials of the association, sat in flu*
place of honor, on the right of the
chairman.
Rear Admiral Lord Charles Beresford,
who replied io the toast of the navy, de
clined to in* drawn into a discussion of
tin* Chinese situation. He concluded his
speech by saying: i
“The company is waiting to hear a
distinguished guest, the new Ambassa
dor of the United States, whom every
man of the fore and aft in this country
is delighted to see. but 1 cannot be scal
ed without saying that I took every op
portunity to see the fleet of America in
both the Pacific and Atlantic. I saw a
very excellent licet, not only in the way
the ships are built, but in respect of gen
eral organization and preparedness.
"1 need not extol its officers and men. ,
They are of the same blood as ourselves,
and have proved what they could do
when called niton. 1 hope the time will
very shortly conn* when there will be
such an understanding between the two
countries that if anything occurs dis
agreeable to us or affecting our honor
and safety, thi*se two fleets will he to
gether. That will make for peace.’’
Vice President Harper then submitted
the toast of “Our Guests" coupled with
the names of Mr. Choate and Baron Hits- I
sell of Killowen. 1I»* expressed his keen
pleasure at the advent of Mr. Choate aT
a time “when there is every disposition
to tighten the bonds of the Anglo-
Saxon race, whose only objects are peace,
prosperity, freedom of trade and prog
ress.”
The toast was received with loud
cheers, the company standing and shout
ing the name of Mr. Choate, who was
thrice cheered.
Mr. Choate on rising to respond, re
ceived an ovation.
Tin* United States Ambassador began
jokingly, protesting that lie was over
whelmed with embarrassment at being
called upon to respond in priority to the
Ixu'd Chief Justice. He fell: that when
thi* British lion was about to roar even
the American eagle should hold his
peace. He was delighted, he said, to re
ceive and accept the invitation to the
banquet, although he was not at liberty
to discuss British commerce. His gen
eral instructions from liis Government
were not to discuss politics, only at ex
traordinary festal occasions. (Langhjf
ter.)
"T have felt, however. Hint I might
property avail myself of this first pub
lic occasion to express the appreciation
of my countrymen for the forebenranec,
good will and friendship manifested to
them freely by the British people. It is
true, gentlemen, that peace between the
United States and Great Britain is the
first interest, not only of these two
nations, but of the whole world.”
In expressing his gratitude for the
cordial greeting he had received from all
sorts and conditions iff men sinc<> his
arrival in England, Mr. Onoate said:
“Everywhere 1 have been treated as a
friend, and as the representative <d your
friends and brothers. In tact. I have
actually discovered the <>im*ii door, open
to such an extent as would satisfy even
the yearnings of tin* Rear Admiral who
lias made the circle of the globe in search
of it. 1 think 1 may say. as a testimony
to the good feeling sought so be en
couraged on our side of the water that,
the President gave the best illustration
of it. when he said in my letter of cred
ence. that he relied with confidence upon
my winstant endeavor during my stay
in Great Britain to promote the interest
and prosperity . of both . nations.
/Cheers and cries of “Bravo, i
Alluding to the “satisfactory dispelling
of the cloud between Russia and Eng
land over the Xiu Chwivng Railway ex
tension loan by means of peneelul di
plomacy.” Mr. Choate said:
“That is the kind of diplomacy which
I. just entering upon a diplomatic career,
desire very much to understand, lor I
am fresh enough to believe that it those
two countries, laboring together for
peace, unite their voices in demanding it.
it is almost sure in every case. (Cheers.t
I would like to quote my President again:
for the last words I heard hint say were
that, the United States to-day was on
better terms with every nation on the
•face of the earth than it had ever been
before. (Cheers.)”
After paving eloquent tributes to the
late Baron Hors.-hell, and to Rudyard
Kipling. Mr. Choate concluded a- fol
lows:
"Gentlemen, we are almost one people.
j What 1 say is. let our voice always be
I lifted together for toe cause of human
! progress and the advancement of civilizn-
I lion; and my word for it, if that can al-
I jjpi.vs be followed, why then law, order,
peace and freedom, which are the nurses
' of commerce the world over, will prevail
and the cause of humanity will be ad
vanced.” (Cheers.)
Baron Russell of Killowen. the Lord
Chief Justice, who followed Mr. Choate,
complimented him upon his eloquence,
the width and depth of his observations,
and the statesmanlike tone that pervaded
j his speeches.
The other speakers dwelt with matters
of local interest.
Mr. Choate spoke deliberately, and in
rather a low tone. His humorous re
marks met with penis of laughter. He
had it wonderful reception, made quite
the speech of the evening, which was
listened to with the deepest attention .*"id

PEOPLE OF PORTO RICO.
Interesting Discourse on 1 heir Distin
guishing Characteristics.
The Anthropological Society of Wash
ington met last night in the asenrbl\
hall of the Cosmos Club, and addresses
were delivered by Prof. Robert 1. Hi!:,
the eminent scientist, who has .spent a
number of years m research in the V esi
| Indies, and H. 'l. Wison. of the 1 niled
State's Geological Survey.
I Mr. Hill presentt 1 an int-festing
I course on the people of Porto itieo, dis
cussing them from an ethnological and
I anthropological standpoint, 'i in* Porto
Ricans of the upper das- are of pure
I Spanish blood. To point ol connections
'and respectability they arc tin* descend
ants of military men. who, during the
long period when the island was a mere
garrison, formed alliances and settle-.!
' within it. These people maintain tin*
pride of their descent, with all the state
liness of grandees, and sum? of them arc
opulent. This class of people, with
; white blood and Spanish feelings, opi i
, ions, and prejudices so widely different
I from what is to be found in the British
nr French islands, although numerically
i inferior, forms a distinctive feature o!
| the population. It constitutes the cotn
mercial. professional, and planter classes,
i Beside these there is a )s»euliar peasant
race, locally known as gibnros. eonqiosed
mostly of whites, but also containing
mestizos, colored people and blacks.
I Most of these peasants show clearly
their Andalusian origin, but the Indian
type* is well preserved in some of them.
Although indolent, they are sagacious,
and skillful in conversation, fond of ent
' ing and drinking, and free in their cus
toms, manners, and morals, as judged
by our standard. The poorest gives his
best to the passing stranger. They are
not disposed to continuous labor, nor is
this necessary in so prolific a land. '1 hey
are very fond of amusements, especially
gambling.
l’hysiologically, Mr. Hill thought the
Porto Ricans, both of the higher and
; lower classes, were inferior to the <‘u
i bans.
1 At the conclusion of Mr. Hill’s lalk.
Mr. Wilson showed an interesting series
of lantern views, made by Mr. Hill and
himself while on the island, illustrating
the scenery, inhabitants, and customs.
) A number of antiquities from the isl
and were exhibited by Prof. W. H.
Holmes, and their uses by the aborigines
were discussed by Prof. Eewkes and Dr.
Wilson. Washington Post.
j A DIPLOMATIC TRIUMPH.
. Representatives of European Powers
Impressed by Our Altitude.
Washington. March 15. Ambassadors
and Ministers in Washington represent
ing European powers having large in
terests in China, have communicated to
their foreign offices the substance of the
recent answer of the Lnited States to
: Italy, to the effect that this country
would maintain an attitude of “disin
terested neutrality” in reference to the
Italian designs on San Man bay.
Some of these diplomats have advised
their Governments that they regard tlie
announcements of the attitude of the
United States as of supreme importance
in the Chinese situation. The reasons
for this are summed up by a prominent
* member of the diplomatic corps as fol
lows:
“The answer of the United States to
Italy is a remarkably briliant stroke
of diplomacy. The neutral inclination
of the Lnited States would have been
to favor the move of Italy, for the op
ening of San Mnn bay would give anoth
er port to the growing American trade
in China. But. as this would have ex
cited the animosity of Chinn, your Gov
ernment. decides upon ft course of ‘disin
terested neutrality.’ This gives im of
fense to China, and at the same time
Italy and the world at large take no
tice that tin* United States will inter
pose no obstacle in the acquisition of
j San Mun bay or other Chinese ports.
“It is most important to all the pow
ers to know that the United States has
no purpose to interfere in behalf of
j China, even to the extent of exerting
its moral influence toward continuing
China's integrity. For that reason I
look upon the American answer to Italy
as the most important development in
the Chinese situation flint lias arisen in
recent days, and I think it will be so
accepted in all tin* foreign offices.”
This diplomat further pointed out
that if Italy secured San Man bay from
China it would prove a port of inesti
mable value to American interests in
the Philippines. It is one of the south
erly ports of China and about the clos
est for the big trade to and from Ma
nila.
! HOW THEY’LL SPEND THE CASH.
Santiago de Cuba. March 15. —The
reason why no outbreak occurred after
the recent suspension of public work in
this province, over 2.500 men having been
thrown out of employment, is said to in*
that most of tin* laborers hod served
in ilie ranks of the Cuban insurrection
and are looking forward in the near fu
ture to obtaining tueir share of the
United States fund of 55.000.000.
So far as this $3.(>oo,000 is concerned
in this province, a large part of it will lw>
invested, probably half of what is r<*-
ceived. The other half will undoubtedly
be squandered, and already merchants
here are laying in supplies of silver spurs,
