Adjutant General Corbin issued orders
the other day that the 1900 Jewish vol
unteers in the army should receive fur
loughs, 10 enable them this week to par
ticipate in the religious celebrations. If
there are that many Jewish volunteers in
the service, the showing is a splendid one
for the race. Indeed it may be doubted
that any other race or sect sent so large
a percentage of representatives to the
front There are not many, if any, more
than 100000 Jews In the United States.

The regular Democratic machine of
New York finds itself somewhat in the
position of being between the devil and
the deep blue sea. If the regular party
convention indorses the Chicago platform,
the Gold Democrats" will make a fight,
and if it does not indorse the Chicago de-
liverance, the "Silver Democrats" will
make fight and il is minated that if
a middle course should be taken, both the
gold and the silver factions would fight.

MANILA EATING HORSE FLESH,
And Admiral Dewey Captures An
other Spanish Gunboat.

Hongkong, May 15.-(Copyrighted,
1898, by the Associated Press. 1.-The
United States dispatch boat Hugh Nc
Culloch arrived here from Manila for
dispatches from the United States gov
eminent. She reports that the Spanish
gunboat Callao, from the Caroline
Islands, recently entered the port of
Manila, being ignorant of the outbreak
of hostilitieS between Spain and the
United States. An American warship
fired across her bows and signalled her
a demand for her surrender. The de-
mand being disregarded, the American
ship fired direct at the Spanish gun
boat, and the latter surrendered.
The populace of Manila is reduced to
eating horseflesh, and the prospect of
relief seems far distant.
The Hugh McCulloch also reports
that the Philippine insurgents applied
to Rear Admiral Dewey for his ap-
proval of an attack by them upon the
city. The admiral, 1t appears, approved
of the plan, provided no excuses were
committed. The insurgents then pleaded
that they had no arms, with the eX-
ception OF machetes, to which the ad-
miral replied; Help yourselves at the
CaVite arsenal"
The city of Manila, however, has not
yet been attacked. About 5000 Span
ish troops are guarding the road lead
ing from CaVite to Manila.
There is no truth in the reported
massacre of a number of Americans
There has been recently trifiing Incl
dent during police duty, and nobody
was hurt
London, May 1.-THE Hongkong cor
respondent of the Standard says: After
the CaLao's crew landed, they were
released on parole, and the Callao was
paraded in full view of Manila City,
accompanied by the United States
cruiser Concord.
When Mr.. Williams, the American
consul. landed at Cavite last week. he
was received with great enthusiasm.
and followed in the streets by a crowd
Of 1000 people, shouting ''Vive Los
Americanosi" There were no signs that
the Spanish authorities in Manila were
prepared 10 capitulate. All the Spanish
inhabitants, and many British and
German families have sought safety in
the suburbs, taking all their belong
ipgs. In the business quarters the
buildings are covered with foreign
flags, the British Dredominating, with
a view of protection should the insur-
gents capture the city.
There is much feeling against the
British residents; but, fortunately. the

ORIGINAL THEOSOPHISTS.
Harmonious Convention of the Amer

Chicago. May 15.-The twelfth annual
convention of the American section of
the Theosophical society, claimed by it's
members 10 be the Original Theosoph-
ical organization" was held here to-
day. Those in attendance represented
50 branches in this country of that por-
ton of the cult which refuses to rec
ognize Catherine Tingley as supreme
leader. The proceedings today were
harmonious. in comparison with Ting
ley meetings recently held in this city.
General Secretary Alexander Fullerton,
who is nominal head of the cult, was
reelected.
An executive committee was formed,
as follows: George E. Wright of Chi
cago, Mrs. Kate B. Davis of Mime
apolis, F. E. Titus of Toronto, and W.
j. Waller of San Francisco.
The secretary's report showed a good
increase in membership. a plan was
formulated to make Chicago the CEN

The quart ermaSter'S department is
unable to supply the 80 days rations
necessary for the first months service
and these must be secured before any
of the troops can leave.
PEKIN NOT READY.
The City of Pekin doubtless will be
the first vessel ordered to the Philip
pines, and she is not in condition to re-
ceive troops; but a large force of men
is kept at work on her, and she can
be prepared for the reception OF the
men at q hours notice. Orders have
been received to get the First regiment
ready for departure, but this cannot be
done until the necessary supplies have
been received. Several small steamers
and schooners are engaged in trans
porting supplies from Mare Island to
this city for loading on the Pekin. The
steamers Australia, City of Sydney and
Ohio are being gradually prepared for
service as transports, but it will take
at least a week or ten days before they
are ready for sea- 1t was given out
this morning that the steamer Cone

government, as previously stated.
Nearly 5000 troops from Minnesota,

One complete regiment from Colorado,

here Wednesday morning.
The transportation of troops and |

Madrid, May 15.-Spain is not pleased
with the utterances on the subject of
the possibilities of an alliance between
the United States and Great Britain The
Spanish ambassador at London Count

recent speech of Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain.

the transcendency of the Suggested
Anglo-American alliance, with respect to
European interests.
The Spanish newspapers and the mol
iticians here of all classes discuss Mr.
Chamberlain's speech most angrilv. Thev
consider il to be a sequel To the MARQUIS
or Sailsbury's warnings to SPAIN whose
COMMONS, 1t seems, are to be absorbed
By strong enemies.
The Liberal, referring to the suggested
A7nglo-Saxon alliance, says: IF any al

CHAMBERLAIN'S SPEECH.
Storm of Criticism From the European
Capitals.

London, May 15.-The speech of Mr.. Jo-
seph Chamberlain. secretary of state for
the colonies, at Birmingham on Friday
night, mas provoked an unusual amount
OF comment in every European capital
many papers regarding it as an unstates-
.manllke display of the country's weak
ness BIZ the admission that Great Brit
ain IS unable to cope with Russia with
out the assistance of an ally.
Others think it means dissension be-
tween LORD Salisbury and Mr.. Cham
berlain. but the preponderating oninion
Is that Mr.. Chamberlain was used TO
make an announcement which Lord
salisbury, as premier and foreign minis
ter, could not make without imDroprietv.
The Paris correspondent of the Times
reports the substance of an interview
with former French minister whose
name IS not given, in which the French
statesman said it must not be forgotten
that United States Ambassador White

sion among the rebel factions, some of
which are negotiating with Americans
and others with the Spaniards. Whether
Aquinaldo possesses enough Influence
to reconcile these differences and to in
duce the insurgents to pursue a COM
mon policy, is questionable Admiral
Dewey is well advised in waiting for
achievements, since the fall of Manila
would produce anarchy throughout the
islands. The English here advocate a
joint Anglo-American administration.
1t is asserted here that Admiral
Dewey has recoaled three British war
ships.
The Madrid correspondent of the
Standard says the government has
wired Captain General Augusti at Ma
Mia, authorizing him to grant such re-
forms in the Philippines as are COM
patible with the national sovereignty.
