ing that on June 5, the insurgents
forced the passage of the Zapote river
and captured Las Pinos and Parakai,
since which time the fighting between
the insurgents and Spaniards was con.
tinuous, and the latter were being
gradually driven in.
The Liberals dispatch explains that
lin face OF Aguinaldo's superior forces,
the Spaniards were compelled to re.
treat"
The Spanish correspondent also says:
"The fighting continues necessarily.
There are skirmishes at intervals, day
and night, and lack Of provisions has
compelled the Spaniards to yield at
certain points. Both ammunition and
food are scarce. Nevertheless, the
Spaniards are animated BY the best
spirit. and are fighting heroically. The
wounded, who are crowding into the
churches and converts, have been
placed under tie protection Of the Red
Cross.
lit is reported that the archbishop
has gone to the insurgents in the hope
OF moderating their animosity and pre-.
venting acts of violence.

refuge in the province of Batenzas,
and the sisters are fleeing to places Of
safety in the province Of La Guiana.
1t is not expected that Manila Will
capitulate until the American troops

LIKE THE STREETS Of CAIRO
WHERE THE MINERS OUTFIT FOR
KLONDIKE.
Mr.. Myers, Portland Business Man,
has an Interesting Tale to Tell
Two Thousand People Leave.

George T.. Myers, Jr., of Portland,
Ore. VINO arrived on the Gaelic yester-
day tor IA months stay on the Islands,
has some interesting things to say in
regard to the rush Tor the Klondike.
Portland is experiencing goodly
share of the Quitting trade, but Sc
attic is the great center, and real
starting point of all expeditions. Said
Mr.. Myers in an interview:
within the week prior to my de-
parture, over 1000 people set sail for
the land of promise. Judging from the
crowds on the streets, one would not
think that any had gone. Every boat
and train that arrives is crammed to
its utmost capacity with people insane
with excitement and eager to start for
the mines at the earliest possible mo-
ment. The hotels and lodging hous-
es are crowded. There will be fifteen
lines of steamers running out of Seat
tie alone. and every berth has been
engaged up to April LIST. Big premf-
ums are being paid for rooms this
month. One fellow who had paid $40
for his bunk sold it for $40. | know
this to be fact, and no doubt there
are many such transactions. The
grand rush is expected during the lat
ter part of this month. When | left
vacant lots were already being rented
for tents to accommodate the overflow
from the hotels and lodging houses.
"The street scenes remind one of the
Streets of Cairo at the Worlds Fair.
Almost every nationality on earth is
represented. The costumes of the mi
ners are interesting and many of them
most amusing. They are to be worn
in the Klondil<e, and for the most part
are made of all colors of blankets,
with footgear of many kinds. Here
and there one can see dog teams prac-
ticing. Some have elk and even goats
in training. 1t is like great carni
val with the scenes constantly chang.
ing. and new faces and new and gro.
tesque groups ever appearing"

The Receipts and Expenditures of the

As to finances. the president saws:
1t is estimated on the basis of the
present revenue law receipts of the
government for the year ending June
80, '9S. will be $j7S. 600. 600: expendi-
lures $500. .OOO.O 900. The result is de-
ficiency of SIP, 600, OOO.''
The present condition of the treas
ury, he says. amply justifies the inn
mediate enactment of legislation rec
ommended a year ago for the redemP-
tion of greenbacks.
The president favors frequent
steamships in communication under
the American flag with the newly ac-
quired islands.
The Army and Navy.
The recommendation of the secre-
tary of war for an increase in the
military establishment has the presi-
dents unqualified approval. He saws
il is his purpose TO muster out the
entire volunteer army as soon as con-
gress provides for an increase in the
regular army.
He earnestly approves the recon-
mendations of Secretary Long as to
the increase in the navy and recon-
mends that the grades of admiral and
vice admiral be temporarily revived

Annual Message of the Executive Submitted Congress
Washington Today.
HE DWELLs UPON THE WAR WITH SPAIN
Speaks of the Achievements Sea and Land But Limits
Details to Future Policy.

Washington. Dec. 5.-Congress
convened promptly at noon. The gal
leries of both houses were crowded.
and there was a good attendance of
senator's and mem bers. Vice President
Hobart presided in the upper branch
and Speaker Reed in the house The
presidents message was read in both
houses. 1t began as follows:
TO the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives: Notwithstanding added
burdens rendered necessary by war
our people rejoice in the verv satisfac-
tory and steadily increasing degree of
prosperity evidenced bv the largest
volume of business ever recorded.
Manufacturing has been improved,
agricultural pursuits have Welded
abundant returns and labor in the
fields of industry has been better re-
warded- The revenue legislation,
passed by the present congress, has
increased the treasury's receipts to
the amount estimated by its authors.
The finances of the government have
been successfully administered and
its credit advanced to first rank.
while its currency has been main
tanned at the worlds highest stand
ard. Military service under a com
mon flag and for n righteous cause
has strengthened the national spirit
and served TO cement more closely
than ever the fraternal bonds between
every section of the country.
"A review of the relations of the
United States to other powers is al
ways appropriate. This year it is of
primary importance in view of the
ssh hnH ar-fc
demanding in one instance an ulti-
mate determination by arms and in
vOlving far reaching consequences
which will require the earnest atten-
tiOn of congress"
The president then speaks of the
paragraph in his last annual message
with reference to our relations with
Spain and Cuba, the futile Efforts of
Spain to conquer the island the fail
ure of the autonomous government
set up in the island, the suffering of
the reconcentrados and the evident
inability of Spain to end the was sue
cessfully.
The blowing Up of the Maine.
The message next takes up the de-
struction of the Maine, the anger
which il rested in the minds of the
American people. the appointment
and work of the naval board of in
quiry, which established that the ORR
gin of the explosion was external by
a submarine mine, and only halted
through positive testimony to fix the
responsibility.
Events Leading to the War.
Taking up PchronolOgically the events
of the next few months, the president
reviews the prompt action of congress
voting the national defense funds, the
futile efforts to negotiate with the
Madrid government. and the sever
ance of diplomatic relations by Spain
after his message to congress saying:
In the name of humanity. in the
name of civilization, in behalf of the
endangered American interests which
give us the right and duty to speak
and act, the war in Cuba must stop.
The president reviewed at length the
work of preparation for war and the
impartiality displayed by other gov
ernments during the war.

EUROPE UNITED AGAINST Us.
Steads Story of the Anti-UncIe Sam Plot
and It's Sudden Death.

and It's Sudden Death.
London. Dec. 5.-William T Stead. the
London editor, writing from Rome un-
der date of Nov. p. declares that every
where in Europe there is anger, disgust
and alarm among all those who direct
public opinion at the position OF the
United States during the period from
last spring to the present time with
reference to the Spanish war. The sin
cerity of the United States in its an
nounced motives in going to war is
scoffed at and the sentiment that is al
most universal is that the United States
has been guilty Of bad faith and cupid
ity. or is given over to unholy ambi-
ton. He found proof of the existence
of a disposition in Europe to intervene
in behalf of Spain. he says, which was
checked by the knowledge that Great
Britain would have nothing to do
with il.
He says of this, in part: Immediately
after the war broke out a diplomatic
representative of the powers cOmmuni-
Gated to an American minister at
European court in plain and unmtstak-
able terms the displeasure of the pow
ers and their desire TO express that dis
pleasure publicly and foroibly. These
communications were sufficiently seri-
Gus for the contingency Of the use of
the allied forces of the European ma
tions for the coercion of the United
-ss4atesssa,. bsA-fraEslGlSf. discussed between
the two dipIonatists.
IF you intervene said the Ameri-
can minister. it means war
- Yes rejoined his visitor. and the
forces Of the great European powers
acting in alliance would overwhelm any
opposition which Amreica could offer
"' No doubt said the American, but
you would have to bring your forces
across the Atlantic to the other hem
isph-re and keep them there for the
rest of your natural life. And
remember that when you We're bring
ing your armies and your navies across
5000 miles of sea to fight America you
would have to count with England. who
is certainly not friendly TO your enter
prise
This put an ex:inguisher on the pro-
posal. Nothing more was heard of the
contemplated intervention. 1t never
got so far as to be submitted to Eng
land. I am very glad to be able to set
forth the actual facts as they actually
happened. They were told me at first
hand by the person most Immediately
concerned. and YOU can absolutely rely
upon the accuracy of the above state
rleut'

Doings of the Two Houses.

The call of the senate developed the
presence of 65 members. The usual
resolutions were offered and adopted.
After appointing a committee to call
on the president and administering
the cath of office to Simon, of Oregon,
a recess was taken for half an hour
pending the receipt of the president s
message. In the house 267 members
were present. Mr.. Sulzer, of New
York, democrat, introduced resolu-
ton directing the committee on mill
tary affairs to investigate the war de-
partment and conduct of the Spanish

orable trip of the Oregon from
/ san Francisco, Hobson's exploit
in sinking the Merrimac at the mouth
I of Santiago harbOr, which is referred
to as an act of exceptional heroism.
/ The Santiago campaign is referred to
as a brilliant achievement. A brief
review is then presented of the de-
struction of Ceryera's fleet. Con-
cerning il the president SAYS:
Where all so cOnspicuously distin-
guished themselves from the COM
manders to the gunners and unnamed
heroes in the boiler rooms, for which
neither ancient nor modern history
affords parallel in completeness OF
the event and marvellous dispropor-
tion of casualties, it would be invid-
ious to single out any one for special
honors.
As TO the success gained by the
arms of the United States in Cuba,
the president says the earnest and
lasting gratitude of the nation is un-
sparin@ly due. The total casualties
of the army and navy were l, ,66S
killed and wounded, and in the entire
lose a gun or flag or transport or ship,
and with the exception of the crew of
the Merrimac, not n soldier or sailor
was taken prisoner. The president
then says: I'm tracing these events,
we are constantly reminded of our
obligations to the divine Master for
His watchful care over us and His
safe guidance, for which the nation
makes reverent acknowledgement,
and offers humble prayer for n con-
tinuance of His favor.
The Peace Negotiations.
The preparation and signing of the
protocol is discussed at length. The
president says he hopes to be able to
lay the treaty before the senate. I'm
til the treaty is -Pasified the president
will not discuss the government or
tenure of the new propositions, but
will continue the military govern
ments and give to the people security
in life, property and encouragement
under a Just and beneficient rule.
Says the president:
Government of Cuba.
'.As soon as we are in possession of
Cuba and have Pacified the island, it
will be necessary to give aid and
direction to its people to form a gov
ernment for themselves. Neither re-
venge nor passion should have place
in the new government. Until there
is complete tranquility on the island
and a stable government is inaugur-
ated the military occupation will be
continued
The president anticipates that the
Nicaragua canal commission will
shortly be able to report finally. In
view of our newly acquired interests
in the Pacific, he considers the con-
struction of the canal as more than
ever indispensable.
The president recommends an in
crease in the appropriation to 81
100000 for the United States exhibit
at the Paris exposition.
He reports that the Hawaiian COM
mission fulfilled its mission. and the
report will be laid before congress at
an early date.

Turkey will he instructed TO take |
