Nucleus Of an msurgent Fleet in
Manila Bay,
REBELS WONDERFUL SUCCESS.

They Have Now Captured over Three
Thousand spaninrds, Including Nine
Hundred ReguIars-Agu' VI aldo Places
Captured Treasure on Our ships.
London, June 2O-The Hong Kong
correspondent of The Daily Mail. tele-
graphing yesterday, says: A conspicu-
Gus object in Manila bay is the nucleus
Of an insurgent fleet. L consists of a
vessel of a hundred tons burden. pre-
Fanted to General Aruinaldo by a rich
native. The vessel flies the flag of the
Philippine ropublic-three trlanrlce of
red, white and blue on a white ground.
or a ground formed of the old rebel
flag, sun rising above the hills
The native proclamation Of independ-
ence will be signed Monday. Manila is
completely surrounded by the insur-
gents, Of whom there are three forces
deployed about the city, one posted to
the south, between Malate and the
River Pasig, another occupying a po-
sition to the east and cutting off COM
municaton with the lake or Laguna de
Bay, and the third operating on the
north side, stopping all railway com
munication between Manila and the
rich supply towns to which the line
runs.
The success Of the rebel forces is
wonderful General Aguiualdo has
more than surpassed the expectations
of those who favored his return to the
Philippines. He has captured 5000
Spanish troops, including 500. regulars.
Among the latter are II officers of and
above the rank of lieutenant colonel.
including two brigadier generals, and
he has taken 70 officers below the rank
Of lieutenant colonel. In addition his
forces have captured five prominent
priests, heads of important parishes in
provinces recently overrun by the in
surgents. These men the insurgents
hate even more than they hate the
Spaniards and the rebels chucllle with
joy when they point them out in their
prisons.
They have captured, too, Old Cavite
church, taking 27O prisoners, and they
now hold the entire shore of the bay
right around to NIalate. A foreign fire
brigade, composed of British, Swiss and
Germans who intend to remain ashore
are quartered at the premises of Ker
& Co. to guard foreign property against
fire. They applied to the Spaniards
to receive arms, but were refused.
General Aguinaldo has captured a
deal of money, which he has sent
aboard the American warships for
| safety. The much vaunted Philippine
militia, which it was a serious mistake
on the part Of the Spaniards to arm
are now all fighting in the rebel ranks
The province of Batangas. Iaguna
Cavite, Bulacan, Pampangu, Tarlace
and PanEasiman are all in full rebel
lion. 1t is believed that General Pena,
with the whole of his army in the
province of Pampangu, has had to
| capitulate to the victorious rebels.
The Spaniards are astounded to find
that the rebels respect the lives and
| property Of their prisoners Of all ranks.
1t is believed there are dissensions
among the rebel leaders Of so serious a
character that civil war is certain so
! soon as the Spaniards and the Ameri-
! cans have gone.

IMPRESSING STEAMERS.

The Government Must Have Vessels
For the Next Manila Expedition.
San Francisco, June 2O.-The govern
ment has taken a firm stand to secur-
ing transports to carry the troops to
Manila, and from this time forward
impressment will be the rule until
enough vessels have been secured to
carry the army to the Philippines.
The Pacific Mail companys steamer
Newport has been impressed. This
makes the sixth vessel owned by the
Pacific Mail company which is in the
service of the government The steam
er was thoroughly fumigated and has
gone to the mail dock. Her cargo win
be discharged as rapidly as possible,
and then the work of fitting her out
will begin. The Peru is due from the
Orient on June "a and the City of Rio
de Janeiro follows her on July 3. Both
steamers will probably be taken by the
government although their Impress
ment win leave the Pacific Mail COM
pany without a steamer on the route
between here and the Orient.
The company is not selling tickets
for passage on the Peru to the Orient,
a fact which seems TO indicate a belief
by the company's officers that she will
be seized as transport The Alameda
is due from Australia and Honolulu on
June 2S, and the government agents
will swoOp down on her. This viii
leave the Oceanic Steamship company
with only one vessel, the MaTiposa, on
the Australian route, and no steamer
on the Honolulu route.

San Francisco dUne 2O.-The greatest
excitement prevailed in Camp Merritt
over the report that leaked out to the
effect that one Of the most noted and
daring of Spanish spies had been cap
tured in camp. 1t was reported that
the man had enlisted in one Of the reg
ular regiments of infantry. An inves-
tigation of the rumor revealed the fact
that the spy has not as yet been ap-
pretended, but it is known that the
government has recently received re-
liable information that leads it to be-
lieve that Spain has a spy in Camp
Merritt. The government fears a GER
tain well known informer, whose name
for the present is withheld, The man
is said to have been secretly employed
by De LONE when he was in Washing
ton.

TO Repair the French cable.

Mole st. Nicholas, June 20.-For sew
eral days the French Gable company
has been trying tore-establish its broken
cable between here and Guantanamo
and Santiago. Its repair steamer Man
Gel finally sailed on Saturday from here
to make the repairs, so that commercial
business, which has been interrupted
for the past ten days, can again be ac-
cepted by the French cable lines. 1t is
understood that the United States au-
thorities will permit this cable to be
worked commercially under the SUPER
vision of its censor, as is the case with
the cable between Havana and Key

Fort Smith Commercial League Sug
gests Exemption Of Property.

Fort Smith, Feb. 14-The Com
mercial League at its meeting this
afternoon adopted the following res
olution, having tor its object the Sc
curing of factories for the state;
Resolved, That the Commercial
League, of Fort Smith, favor the
exemption of all property FOR facto-
ries coming into the state for a
term of ten years and advocate the
adoption of measure by the legis-
lature by providing for an amend
ment to the constitution carrying
out the intent and purposes of the
resolution"
All commercial clubs of the the
state will be urged to join the move
ment for exemption for new fac-
tories.
Our Commercial clubs should
study this matter we'll before they
make stampede for any such res
outions. We want factories, and
want them bad, but one of these
concerns that are ever looking for
a bonus, or lodging to keep from
beng taxed are hardly worth set
Ting in town or hamlet of our
state. We do not believe it is right
to tax part of the people and let
the others 90 free.

at the throttle, while the train was
nearing Ammonia, couple of chill
dren, one five the other three years
old children of Mr.. John and Mrs.
Laura Raines, were dlscoyered on
the side of the track a few yards
off from the train. Engineer
Wright did not have time to think
or apply his brakes, before the
train was creeping upon them, and
horror of horrors, the smallest one
jumped on the track just as the
locomotive reached them: as a mat
ter of course was killed with all the
attending horrors of being ground
to a pulp under the fast revolving
wheels. The Raines family lived
near the scene and the remains
were turned over to them.
