sui q. f. Williams, in behalf of Captain
N. Mayo Dyer, u. S. Crusier Baltimore
has returned to General Miranda the
sword which the latter surrendered to
that American officer at the capture OF
Corregidor Island, at the entrance of
the Bay of Manila. The General re-
piled that lie was overwhelmed by the
generosity of Captain Dyer.
THE LABOR STRIKE.
The men who struck on account OF
an attempt to return to the equitable
basis for payment of labor, after the
American authorities in the early ex-
igencies of the situation here had
agreed TO the extravagant demands of
laborers, are disappearing, and it has
become necessary to employ soldiers to
take their places in some cases, while in
others the matter has been compromis
ed. One of these strikes caused the
suspension Of traffic on the horse Car
lines in Manila. but they have resumed
operations today.
INSURGENTS RECRUITING.
Recruiting officers among the Insur-
gents have been impreising the en-
ployes of foreign residents, including
those of the British consul. Several
foreigners have complained that native
grooms are taking their employers
horses and joining the Insurgents.
American Army chaplains have ia
stituted Protestant services la private
buildings. Such services had never
previously been held in the Philippine
Islands.
INSURGENTS MORE HOSTILE.
NEW YoRK, Sept ga dispatch to
the Herald, from Manila. says that the
attitude of the Philippine Insurgent
leaders is daily becoming more dan
gerous. SO open is their opposition to
American authority. that the situation
is strained and reconciliation may be
difficult.
What makes the situation more
troublesome is the undisguised rivalry
between the followers of General Agui-
naldo, sslf-proclaimed dictator, and
General Pillar, who covetes the honor
Aguinaldo has acquired.
General Pillar is in command of the
Insurgent troops stationed south OF
Manila. He uses them in any way that
will be most annoying to Aguinaldo,
ami at the same time makes every
effort to show his utter disregard of the
American officials. His forces con-
tiHue- to patrol the city, encouraging
lawlessness in every direction.
AGUINALDo SHOWS HIS AUTHORITY.
Aguinaldo's course is no less annoy
ing. He no longer attempts to conceal
his hostility to the officials who re-
present the United States, and yester-
day issued an order prohibiting his SOL
diers from entering the American
lines. This was probably deemed neces-
sary in order to prevent them from be-
coming SO we'll disposed toward the
Americans as to destroy hss power
The attitude of rival leaders cannot fail
in the end to injure the cause Of Philip
pine independence.

Landed q Party .

WASHINGTON, May 9.-Major Gen
eral Nunez of the Cuban army arrived
here last night on his return from
landing a party in Cuba. This landing
was made about two weeks ago, after
conferences between General Nunez,
General Miles and Senior Quesada, the
Cuban delegate, and was for the pur-
pose of opening up communication
with Generals Garcia and Gomez. After
a brief conference with Mr.. Quesada,
General Nunez left for New York,
where he will make report to Presi-
dent Palma. The results of his trip are
guarded with much care by the Cuban
officials here, who deem it inexpedient
to discuss what General Nunez did. 1t
is said however, that his party found
no difficulty in establishing communi-
cation with the Cuban commanders in
the island. 1t is understood that Gen
eral Nunez will continue organizing
parties of Cubans to go to the front,
and will have command of the United
States forces otherwise than those in
the field under Garcia and Gomez.

CAPE HAYTIAN, Hayti, May s.
The dispatch boat Dauntless has ar
rived here. According to advices from
Martinique THE Spanish fleet has not
been sighted off the island.
The Governor of San Juan de Porto

Madrid to provide rations for 10000

rival and got the reply.
Movements of the Spanish fleet are
kept strictly secret. Your question can
not be answered. Be prepared"
1t is reported that five Spanish war
ships were seen off St Thomas on
Thursday, but they were probably only
gunboats from San Juan de Porto Rico,

KEY WEST, Fla, May 9.-There was
rejoicing here tonight when the dis
patch boat brought news of an engage
ment that took place off Cardenas Bay
yesterday afternoon between the tor
pedo boat Winslow and three Spanish
gunboats, in which one of the gunboats
was apparently disabled and all were
put to fight.
The Winslow was steaming in with
that in her demeanor that limited that
she had no intention of stopping right
away. There was agitation in the sig
nal station, and in a short time flags
f1uttering Historically spread the mes
sage that the American vessel was
nearly to the range buoy.
Three gunboats slipped their cables
and ran bravely out to their safety
limit. Every Spaniard aboard expected
to see the American blown out of the
water. Three six Founders cracked
and three shells threw waterspouts
about the Winslow but she was not
struck.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, Hay 8.-UpOn
the urgent request of the British Con-
sui in Cienfuegos, Cuba, and acting on
authority from Washington, United
States Consul Dent today chartered the
steamer Adula of the Atlas line to go
to Cienfuegos and take away Ameri-
cans and Cubans whose lives are in
peril at the hands Of an angry pOpu-
lace. An uprising Of the most dan
erous and destructive kind is immi-
nent in Cienfuegos. Passengers on the
Giovanni Bausan say when that vessel
left Havana people were wildly excited.
Prices of food were rising and starva-
ton was imminent. and spectators
weredealing in food and supplies.

REVENUE BILL DELAYED.
Many Amendments Have Been Sug-

Many Amendments Have Been Sug-
gested
WASHINGTON, May 8.-The expec-
tation is that the war revenue bill will
be received in the Senate from the
Committee on Finance about Wednes-
day, but its report may be delayed for
a day or two beyond that date. The
fact is that the committee has found so
many changes considered desirable
from it's standpoint that progress has
necessarily been slow. This has prov
ed to be true without regard to party
lines The Republicans have suggested
many more amendments to the bill
than have the Democratic members,
and many of those suggested by them
have been of such Importance as to re-
quire careful attention and much time.
There are many matters yet requiring
consideration and until these shall
have been voted upon in committee, it
will be impossible to fix a day for re-
porting the bill.

KEY WEST, Fla, May 9.-Three
separate reports of engagements of
United States warships reached here
tonight, but thus far details are want

gomery has captured two prizes off

a New York dispatch from Madrid
says: The Liberal, which seems to

Government, it having been the organ

come Independent, thus describes the
situation: From one end of the PENN
sula TO the other We hear the subter-
raneous rumbling that precedes great
social upheavaIs. which are thousand
times more dangerous than great poll
teal revolutions. Amid our anxieties
we cannot discover a head or hand firm
enough TO confront the tremendous for
eign conflict and check the gradual in
ternal Reorganization that is going
on The men who govern the nation
and those who hope to succeed them
inevitably lack the physical and intel
lectual means to make peace or push
on the war The fate of the country

around which, if God has desired that

French Press ChagrLned

LONDON, May according to a
dispatch from Paris Commodore Dew
ey's dispatches and the completeness
of the American victory have greatly
chagrined the French press, which has
been assuring France that the Ameri-
cans were locked up in Manila Bay.
The Russian papers are full of criti-
cisms of the Spanish fighting. They
accuse the Spaniards of losing the ar
senal at Cavite through cOwardice.
