Washington, Aug. 16.-The depart

lowing:

at the department of state at 11:15 p.
M, Aug. Is, from Consul Wildman, at
Hong Kong: August says Dewey bonn
barded Manila Saturday; city surren-
dered Internationally. August was
taken by Germans in a launch, Kalserin
Augusta, and brought to Hong Kong
I credit report -
The information contained in Consul
Wildman's brief message aroused in
tense interest, but created no surprise
among the officials. For two or three
days news of the fall of Manila has
been expected. The latest dispatches
received from Admiral Dewey and Gen.
Merritt indicated that it was their pur-
pose to force surrender of the city as
soon as possible.
1t is believed that they joined in a
note to Gen. August demanding the
surrender of Manila, threatening to
make a com bined sea and land attack
upon the city unless the demand was
acceded to. "
While no further information than
that received in consul Wildman's dis
patch has been received, it is mea.
sure confirmed by a brief dispatch
from Madrid.

as upon all officials who have borne
the weight of great responsibilities,

his feeling was one of profound thank
fulness. Work in connection with the
appointment of commissioners to ne
gotiate a treaty of peace, the prepa-
ration of their instructions and other
important matters, he said, probably
would necessitate his remaining in
Washington until some time in Octo-
Der, when he hoped to be able to take
a short rest. The work of the peace
commission might occupy month Or
so, and he hoped that in his next an
nual Thanksgiving proclamation he
would have the very great pleasure of
announcing to the people the fact that
treaty of peace had been signed.

train consists of two or three cars and

there has never been an accident on this
