Pbkin, April 15. War rumors in circulation during the last 10 days have been reduced to a few concrete facts. These facts all go to demonstrate anew what everybody here knows that the Germans are spoiling for a fight. Five hundred German cavalry, with a big supply of ammunition, left for Hankow Pass this morning. There they are to await the much-heralded Mongolian hordes commanded by Prince Tuan and Tung Fu Siang.

A German brigade of 4,000 men at Pao-tlng-Fu will leave that place tomorrow for the West.

Fassig. Section Director, April 15. CUBANS NAME COMMISSION Five Prominent Men To Confer With President In Washington. Copyrighted by New York Herald Company, 190L Special to the Baltimore Sun. Havana, April 15.

The Constitutional Convention today elected the following members to constitute a commission to go to Washington and confer with the authorities there regarding the future political and commercial relations of Cuba and the United States: Mendez Capote, president of the convention; Dr. Berriel. rector of Havana University; Senors Tamayo and Llorente, associate judges of the Supreme Court, and Senor Portuondo, fiscal of Puerto Principe. La Discusion comments on this step in an editorial as follows: "The assembly declines to maintain further political relations with the American Government through a governor who failed, whose failure is now recognized, and who assured the President that the assembly would accept the Piatt amendment. This caused firm opposition by the Cuban people and indignant protest by many elements.

It was acceptable only to some who favored It unwillingly through the recognition of the fatality of superior force. Therefore the convention is determined to treat with the American representative here only on points of routine detail. This is an unfortunate position for the major-general-governor-doctor who aspires to represent American policy in Cuba as a statesman and His position suggests the old adage that It Is only a step from the sublime to the ridiculous." The date of sailing for the commission has not yet been determined. It may be tomorrow. Washington, April 15.

The committee of the Cuban Constitutional Convention appointed to visit Washington for consultation regarding the "Piatt" amendment are assured of an interview with the President if their departure for Washington is hastened so they will arrive before he leaves on his Western trip.

MATCH IS FULLY CONFIRMED Couple Slipped Away To Folkestone, Bespite Many Obstacles, And Were Joined In Truly Romantic Style. Copyrighted by New Tork Herald Company, 1S0L Special to the Baltimore Sun.

LoNrxjN, April 15. Miss Rosie Boote, is now the. Marchioness of Headfort. Her marriage to the it is definitely learned, took place April 11 In the registrar's office at Saltwood, near Folkestone. The couple are now spending their honeymoon at Folkestone.

Last week Miss Boote, accompanied by a lady friend, took rooms at the Hotel Metropole, Folkestone, and the Marquis fixed quarters in the same town. Notice of the marriage was given to John Andrew, the town registrar, and communicated to Saltwood. At Saltwood the superintendent registrar has an office, and it was there that Miss Boote became a marchioness. While most of the visitors at Folkestone were in bed or at breakfast, Miss Boote and Miss Daisy Roche, of Daly's Theatre, escorted by the Marquis, drove In a carriage to Saltwood, and at 8 A. M.

the marriage took place. One of the witnesses was Miss Roche. The other was F. Valder, a Saltwood villager. The bridegroom was described as Thomas.

Taylour. 22 years old, bachelor, fourth Marquis of Headfort, peer of the Realm. Miss Boote was described as the daughter of the late Charles Boote and 23 years old. Having received congratulations from the registrar the Marquis and Marchioness returned to Folkestone. A Society Sensation In England.

It Is some weeks since Miss Rosie Boote was stated to be the object of much curiosity at the Gaiety performances in London of "The Messenger Boy." Her appearances in the part of Maisie, It was said, were In the nature of, taking a farewell of the stage In view of her approaching marriage to Lord Headfort. Since that time it had been announced that Lord Headfort had been detailed for army duty in India so as to get him out of the way of Miss Boote's charms, his resignation of his commission having been previously declined by Lord Roberts, the Commander-in-Chief. Miss Boote being a Catholic, while her lover is a Protestant, it was stated that she had sought a dispensation to marry, and that this had been granted by Cardinal Vaughan, Archbishop of Westminster. London papers say that the Marquis mother became aware of his intentions some time ago through a letter found by his valet in the Marquis' pocket, making arrangements for Miss Boote to meet him at the registry office and get married. The valet took the letter to the Marchioness, who proceeded to try to stop the wedding.

The Marchioness later went to Cairo, leaving her son in the care of his brother officers of the Life Guards. These officers kept close watch on the Marquis. They had him practically confined to barracks, but he managed to slip off several times. Miss Boote has been seen on the stage in this country. She made the trip with a company brought over for the play "In Town" when It was put on at Wallack's, New Tork, about three years ago, and was pronounced one of the prettiest girls In the chorus.

The Insular government has, therefore, ordered the assessors to Increase their valuations of real and personal property." Washington, April 15. Santiago Igle-eias, a representative of the Porto Rico Federation of Labor, who came to this country recently with a petition signed by 6,000 Porto RIcans asking relief from the distressing conditions declared to exist on the Island, presented the petition to President McKinley today.

Auxerre, France, April 15. General Gras, inventor of the rifle which bears his name, died here today from apoplexy. His Rifle Once Widely Used. When the reorganization of the French army was undertaken after the war with Germany in 1870 Basile Gras, a young officer whose native town was St. Amans de Rellaga, and who had risen to the rank of captain, devoted his attention to the Improvement of its armament and devised the rifle which bears his name.

This weapon was recognized as superior to the other models In use at the time and when Captain Gras reached the rank of major In April, 1874, and was attached to the Central Armament Depot, he secured the adoption of his rifle by the Government. The Gras rifle was used by the French army In Africa and In Tonquin, where good results were obtained, but It was ultimately replaced by the Lebel rifle. Major Gras became a lieutenant-colonel In 1879, a colonel in 1882 and was promoted to general of brigade in 1888. He was then made Inspector of the manufacture of weapons for the army and subsequently was placed In command of the artillery brigade at Chalons. At the time of his was 65 years old.

Martinelli, Are Created. POPE DEPLORES DIVORCE LAW Also Expresses Sadness At Repressive Measures Attempted In France And Other Enropeaii Countries. Rome, April 15. At a secret consistory held today Pope Leo XIII created 12 new cardinals and delivered an important allocution on recent acts in European states aimed at the church. The new cardinals are: SEBASTIANO MARTINELLI.

Titular Archbishop of Ephesus, Apostolic Delegate in the United States. ALESS.AfNnitO SANMINIATEIXI ZABAREL-LA. Latin Patriarch of Constantinople. Auditor of the ReTerend Apostolic Chamber. CASIMIUO GENNARI, Titular Archbishop of Le-panto, Assessor of the Holy Office.

Bishop of Verona. AGOSTINO RIBOLDI, Bishop of Pavia. GIOVANNI KNIAZ DE KOLZIELSKO PUZYNA. Archbishop of Cracow. LEONE DE SKRBENSK Y.

Archbishop of Prague. Russian bishops of Mohilow and Luzk were also appointed. The Pope, in his allocution, said that sad and dangerous events had come to pass, were becoming more serious and were spreading from one part of Europe to another. Several states, widely separated, but united by an identical desire, had "entered into open war against religion." The campaign was directed against the religious congregations in order to destroy them gradually. Neither common law nor equity nor the deserts of the congregations, the Pope said, had prevailed to prevent their destruction.

The desire was also manifest to prevent the youth from being educated by the congregations, of whom many pupils had become illustrious. Leo XIII then spoke-of the position of the Pope, which, he said, was "most shameful and disagreeable." Alluding to the divorce bill drawn up by a Socialist Deputy of the Italian Chamber, he said: "To the ancient insults leveled at the Church it is desired to add another, profaning the sanctity of Christian marriage and destroying the bases of domestic society." The Tope deplored the seriousness of the present times and foresaw a still graver outlook in the future. He urged society to have recourse to the light of God, and concluded by announcing the appointment of the new cardinals. Paris, April 15. A dispatch received here from Rome says that the Pope at today's consistory spoke of the "sadness of the law against religious associations 'in France," saying that the associations had not deserved such a calamity.

The Pontiff also dwelt on the "inconsistency of a country which proclaims liberty for all, while refusing even the existence of associations whoss members make a profession of practicing the precepts of the Gospel." He spoke of the recent tumultuous demonstrations In Spain and -Portugal, which had aroused apprehension that even worse events were in store for Italy. NO DIVORCE IN ITALY But Bigamy Is Not Punishable If A Man Takes Some Trouble. Italy Is now the only country in'Europe, with the exception of the Spanish Peninsula, where divorce does not exist, and there is no country, it is said, where marriage obligations are so easily evaded. As the mrrringe-laws now stand a man, if so Inclined, can commit blgamv and stUl not be punished. He, for insta'nee, marries at the Malrle, the only legal marriage according to Italian he marries again in the church, the only one recognized by that institution; then he goes to France, becomes a French citizen, obtains a divorce from his legal wife and marries again, for all of which he does not come within the pale of the law.

It Is said by those favorable to divorces that It will at least ameliorate these evils. Those opposing divorce say statistics prove that it is not needed. In 1900 there were only 1.725 applications for separation befefre the courts. Of these 820 were allowed. Of the reasons for separation the greatest was incompatibility of temper, next infidelity and violence, while the least were for condemnations for long periods of crime.

The Minister of Justice, on promising to present the divorce law to the House, clearly declared that, contrary to the statements frequently made, there had never been opposition In the highest quarters, evidently referring to Queen Margherita, who has always been credited with strong feelings on the subject. CONFERRING THE RED HAT This Insignia Is Oddly Shaped And Is Never Worn Bnt Once. The conferring of the red hat the final insignia of a cardinal's oflice, takes place at a public consistory in the Sala Regia, one of the most magnificent apartments of the Vatican. In the case of Mgr. Martinelli it will follow within a year the ceremony of conferring the beretta, which, as previously stated In The Sun, will take place at the Baltimore Cathedral May 5.

When the consistory is assembled in the Sala Rogla the Pontiff makes hl3 entry seated in the gestatorial chair, borne shoulder high. He wears for the occasion, not the familiar triple crown, but usually a mitre of white satin, richly adorned with gold, the bifurcation of which is lined with crimson damask. The most conspicuous portion of his vestment is a cope a mass of gold embroidery. As he alights and takes his 6eat on the throne the celebrated Sistine Chapel choir bursts forth into a triumphant welcome. Long rows of benches are on each side of Here sit the members of the Sacred College, In their full cardinal robes.

On the steps before their Eminences sit their chaplains, whose duty It Is to hold the scarlet berettas on their knees and to gather up the cardinals' trains. The ceremonies open with the "Obedience." This consists of the cardinals going up one by one to kiss the ring of the Pope. After the professed cardinals come the newly elect, who have first taken, in the Sit tine Chapel, the oath of allegiance prescribed by the apostolic constitution in the presence of the Pope, the cardinals and the superiors of religious orders. They enter the consistorlal hall In procession and kiss the hands and feet of the Pope, after which they exchange the accolade, or ecclesiastical embrace, with their colleagues, beginning with the senior member of the Sacred College and ending with the last promoted. 11 During these proceedings one of the con-sistorial advocates pleads the cause of the beatification or canonization -of some person eminent for sanctity.

The new cardinals then return to the Pontifical throne and the Pope places the red hat on the head of each one, saying as he does so, In Latin: Receive, for the glory of Almighty God and the adornment of the Holy Apostolic See, this red hat, the sign of the unequalcd dignity of the cardinalatei by which it is declared that even to death by the shedding of thy blocd thou shouldst show thyself intrepid for the exaltation of the blessed faith, for the peace and tranquillity of the Christian people, for the Increase, and prosperity of the Holy Roman Church. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen. The same hat serves for the crowning of all the cardinals. The real hat belonging to each is sent subsequently.

The red hat is a peculiar feature of the wardrobe of a cardinal. It is oddly shaped, the brim being six feet across. The material is cardinal beaver. It Is round In shape, and in contrast to the Immense flat brim is a small, conical-shaped crown, too small, apparently, to fit anybody's head. But that is another odd feature of the red hat.

It is not intended to fit anybody's head. The sole use to which it Is put, other than symbolizing the distinction of Its recipient at the time it is bestowed, is to be hung In the cardinal's church after his death. After the Pope has successfully placed the hat for a moment upon the heads of the initiates, all the cardinals, Including the new ones, are embraced one by one by the Pope. The Fapal benediction of the! assembled "multitude follows the Pope PBOF. KOWLAND DEAD.

Famous Physicist and Inventor Expires Suddenly. GREAT LOSS TO THE HOPKINS Had Gained World-Wide Reputation By His Fine Gratings His Work at Niagara And His Tele graph Invention. Prof. Henry A. Rowland, the world-famous professor of physics at the Johns nopkins University, died unexpectedly at 3 o'clock this morning, at his home, 915 Cathedral street.

Dr. Rowland had been In poor health all the winter and within the past few days his symptoms had become somewhat alarming, but this was not publicly known, and his death, unexpected even to his friends, will shock not only this community, but the great world of science everywhere. Professor Rowlandfeft a widow and two children. Henry Augustus Rowland was born in Honesdale, November 27, 1S48, and was the son of Henry A. Rowland, a prominent Presbyterian clergyman.

The son was graduated at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1S70 as a civil engineer and engaged during 1871 In the surveying a railroad In Western New York. He then taught for a time in Wooster University, but 1872 returned to the institute aB Instructor in physics, becoming assistant professor in 187L Professor Rowland' spent a year abroad studying with Ilelmholtz in Berlin and In examining physical laboratories in Kurope. In 1876 he was Invited to accept the chair of physics, with charge of the laboratory. In the newly founded Johns Hopkins University, and he had since held that place. He was a member of 'the Electrical Congress that met in Paris in 18S1, and served Op the jury of the electrical exhibition there in that year, and for his services was made a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor.

His original work was extensive, and Included numerous researches that have been made under his supervision at the Johns Hopkins. While he was In Berlin he showed experimentally that a moving charge of statical electricity has the same magnetic effect as a current. About 15 years ago he gained a worldwide reputation by his large diffraction gratings, which are ruled, by a method ol his own, directly on concave mirrors. An Image of the spectrum is thus produced without the aid of lenses. According to his method as many as 30,000 lines to the Inch can be made.

The photographs of the solar spectrum that he succeeded In making with these gratings surpass anything of the kind that has ever been done. They were exhibited at the National Academy of Sciences In 1883, and at various international expositions since. As an expert In physics and electricity Professor Rowland had within the last eight years gained a high name among technical men. He planned and superintended the harnessing of the water power of Niagara Falls to create electrlcityand' nis most recent notable achievement was a multiplex telegraph invention, which, after several tests over many months, had recently been turned over to a company to exploit. Professor Rowland had conferred upon him many distinguished honors.

He was a foreign member of the Royal Society of London, one of twelve honorary members of the Physical Society of London, one of the ten honorary members of the Physical Society of Paris, a corresponding member of the French. Academy of Science, an honorary member of the Royal Swedish Academy at Stockholm, an honorary member of the Royal Physiographic Society of Lund, Sweden, an honorary member of the Royal Academy of Rome, an officer of the Legion of Honor of France, an honorary member of Groeniaa Academy of Natural Sciences of Catania, Sicily, honorary member of the Literary, and Philosophical Society of Manchester, England, corresponding member of th British Association and of the Royal Society of Gottlngen, member of the Cambridge (England) Philosophical Society, foreign member of the Royal Society of Lom-bardy and of the Italian Society of Spec-troscopists, honorary member of the Royal Society of' Edinburgh, associate of the Royal Astronomical Society of England, and corresponding member of the Prussian Academy of Sciences. In 1S89 he was chosen president of the American Physical Society. Professor Rowland was a member of tho international commission for establishing electrical units, and was an associate of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, from which in 1SS4 he received the Rumford medal for his researches In light and heat, and In 1S81 he was elected to the National Academy of Sciences. In 1883 he presided over the section of physics of the American Association for the Advancement of Science at Minneapolis, and delivered a valuable address entitled "A Plea for Pure Science." Professor Rowland was given the honorary degree of LL.

D. by Yale In 1895 and Princeton in 1896. He was also one of the -only two recipients of honorary degrees from Johns Hopkins, the other being President R. B. Hayes.

He was the author of piany scientlfla monographs published in English and for-, eign languages at home and abroad. One of Prof. Rowland's chief recreations was horseback riding. He took much pride In the fact that be was one of the founders of the Elkrldge Fox-IIunting Club, of which' he was the only remaining original member. He was a member of several local clubs.

A dispatch from German sources in Pekin says: "A young Chinaman named Ho Wan has been arrested for the murder of Captain Bartscli. He boasts that he killed the officer in a moment of auger at the Captain's ill treatment of him. Three other Chinamen have been arrested as accomplices. One of them was with Ho Wan and riding Captain Bartsch's horse." A SLY DIG BY CRAFTY WU He's Heard China Is Slow, But How About The Allies? Washington, April 15. Wu Ting-fang, the Chinese Minister, said today: "We have been accustomed to hear that China was slow.

But in this case many weeks and months are going by without any delay attributable to China so far as I have heard, and yet without definite prospects of bringing the negotiations to a close. This unsettled condition is Injurious to China, but It is also an Injury which affects the whole world. "Take, for Instance, the cotton Industry of the South. The shipments to China are large, but they have been falling off owing to the unsettled condition of affairs, and the trade is seriously menaced. What we need and what the commercial world needs is stability and some definite understanding of what conditions are to be.

"As to the question of indemnities, I receive little direct information. But I have regretted to see from some of the published reports that the total of indemnities is reaching an extremely large sum. It should be borne in mind that China herself has suffered great losses through the recent disturbances, losses which will amount to many millions, and for which she cannot hope to receive indemnity. So that If the claims of the powers aggregate 000, as I see stated, it would probably not be an underestimate to say that China's own losses which reach twice that amount, say $600,000,000. In the aggregate, therefore, China will be shouldering a burden of colossal proportions." Berlin, April 15.

It is officially confirmed here that the United States has made a proposition to the powers to fix the total Chinese indemnity at coupled with the condition that the payment be made Immediately. German officials point out that the amount named would require a heavy scaling of the different claims." 1 BULGARIANS NOT QUIETED Bis Mass-Meeting Asks Intervention In Macedonian Question. Sofia, Bulgaria, April 15. At an open-air mass-meeting held here today, at which 10,000 persons were present, resolutions were passed protesting against the arrest of the members of the Macedonian committee and condemning the attitude of Russia on the Macedonian question. The meeting expressed Itself in favor of asking European intervention against the persecution of Bulgarians by Turkey.

The Vienna correspondent of the London Times sends to a recent Issue of that paper an abstract of a document entitled "Regulations of the Bulgarian Committee of Macedonia." It was captured by the Turkish authorities from a Bulgarian prisoner. The correspondent says: "The document begins by stating that ail the armed bands are to consist of native Bulgarians recruited within a certain district.

They are to execute secretly the orders given by the president of the committee; are to be provided with weapons by the Central Council and are to be organized by the revolutionary local committees of each district or village. The so-called committees of revolt are to conspire against the State and to make sure by inspection and investigation that the instructions of the committees of the propaganda are properly understood. In those localities where there are no revolutionists agitation is to be introduced from outside, or a band is to be formed in accordance with the regulations. The committee of each district will spread revolutionary ideas among the natives by means of speeches and Incendiary harangues. "Then follow the regulations to be observed by the armed bands.

They are either by persuasion or terror to place fresh recruits at the disposal of the local committee. They will put to death such persons as the committee may designate. Every band will obey the orders of the insurrectionary committee in its own district. It will raise the standard of revolt when called upon to do so by the committee and take further orders from the president of the Central Council at Sofia. "Acts of personal vengeance, attacks on villages and all other deeds of the kind are strictly prohibited.

Those guilty of such deeds will be condemned to death. No murder must be committed by the bands without a previous decision of the committee. A number of detailed Instructions follow which are of less general Interest, except the injunction that a written order from the president is necessary befre an assassination is perpetrated." "Don't Bend The Bow Too Tightly." Berlin, April 15. Emperor William today visited Count von Buelow, the Imperial Chancellor, and received from him a detailed account of his recent meeting with the Italian Premier, Signor Zanar-delll.

British newspapers and magazines, commenting upon the alternating periods of hope and apprehension which characterize the latter stages of the South African campaign, compare these with the later stages of the American War of Independence, as If to emphasize these fluctuations. While the letters of responsible correspondents in Pretoria generally depict the situati9n in a despairing mood, the Pretoria representative of the Daily Mail sends today a dispatch of a more hopeful character.

Lord Kitchener will renew his sweeping movements. He now has an army of 250,000 efficient troops, including 60,000 mounted men, with a good supply of horses, 40,000 having been secured in Cape' Colony alone. Th.e army Is In good spirits, and Lord Kitchener Is satisfied with the progress of events, slow though It seems." London, was excited today by a report that a private telegram had been received here to the effect that Generai French, with 500 British troops, had been captured by the Boers while his force was enveloped In a mist on the hills. No confirmation of th. report could be obtained up la a lata hour at night and the War Oflice discredits It.

A dispatch from Kitchener, dated at Pretoria today, was made public, but contains no reference to Generil French. dispatch Is as follows: 'Colonel Sir Henry Rawltnson's column rushed the South Laager, northwest of Klerksdorp, at daylight. Six Boers were killed, 10 wounded and 23 taken prisoners. Rawlinson captured al2-pounder, one pompon complete and two ammunition wagons with ammunition. Our casualties were three wounded.

General Plumer captured a field cornet and seven men, with 10 wagons and rifles. During Colonel Pilch-er's operations In the Orange River Colony seven Boers were killed." A dispatch from Barkly West says: "Pony De Wet, a member of the Cape Assembly, has been sentenced by the treason court to Imprisonment for three years, with a fine of 1,000 for seditious speeches." The rumor that an attempt had been made to assassinate Mr. Kruger is untrue. New Orleans, April 15. The steamer Monterey cleared for Cape Town today with 1,100 mules for the British Army.
