Aguinaldo Ven to Lelellos FRIDAY
He has announced his intention Of 10y
vening an assembly Of the Filininns
September Is, in order to decide nnon
the policy to be adopted by the insnr'
gents.
The correspondent here of the Asso-
ciated Press has had an interviau,
with Aguinaldo, who said there were
$1,000 insurgents armed with rifas
He added that ne could raise loo, OOo
e
Indeed, the insurgent leader pointed
out, the whole population of the Phil.
ippine islands was willing to fight for
their independence. Continuing, Aguin-
aldo said he had 5000 military prison
ers, including 5000 in the vicinity NJ
Manila, besides civil prisoners.
Later, Aguinaldo said the "provis.
ional government was now operatino
in ~twenty-eight provinces. He asserted
that August 2 they elected delegates in
numbers proportionate to the popula-
ton.
AS to the Americans, Aguinaldo. re-
marked that he considered them az
brothers, and that "the two SOVEREIGN
republics were allied against a com
mon enemy"
When questioned as to whether the
future Filipino policy would be abso-
lutte, Aguinaldo excused himself from
reply and asked what America intends
to do.
The correspondent being unable to
answer, this question. Aguinaldo said
the insurgents are fighting for inde-
pendence, n those who favor annex
alton are insincere. He would not say
if there would be any objection to the
Americans retaining Manila for a coal
ing station. He said there would be
no trouble between insurgents and
Americans. He re%pudiated the action
OF insurgents in refusing to allow
Pennsylvania troops to move their
camp to a new location, which refusal
necessitated the calling out of the en-
tire regiment to drive the insurgents
back. Aguinaldo said he has not re-
ceived orders from General Otis or
General Merritt to remove his troops
further from Manila.

KNOWS NO HING OF 1T.
French Embassy Has Not Heard of
Reply to Madrid Note.

Reply to Madrid Note.
Washington, D. c., Sept 1.-The
Madrid dispatch, in regard to the
Spanish note protesting against hos
tilitles on the part Of the insurgents
of the Philippine islands, was shown
to the first secretary Of the French
embassy.
He said Ambassador Cambon had
been absent from Washington several
weeks and the reply was not sent by
him personally. If such a reply had
been made, it would have gone through
the hands Of the first secretary, but
he declined positively to say whether
or not he had forwarded a message
of such a character.
The officials of the state department
refused to make known the nature of
the communications exchanged be-
tween the two governments regarding
this matter. 1t is KNOWN, however,
that, in response to urgent appeals
from the Spanish government to pro-
tect Spaniards living in the Philippines
from h insurgents during the con-
tinuance of the truce now in force,
General Otis was instructed to use his
influence with the insurgent leaders,
to cause them to stop active hostili-
ties for the time.
Touching the departure from Manila
of insurgent parties on ships to carry
the revolution among the other islands
of the group, it is declared that no
such expeditions lave been sent out
since the signature of the protocol and
the incident which formed the basis
Of the Spanish representations on the
subject happened some time ago, when
it was warranted.

FOR A LONG CRUISE.
Oregon and Iowa Preparing to Stake
urn or the Horn.

oregon ana Iowa Preparing to .Iake
Turn OF the Horn.
Washington, D. c., Sept. 1.-THE navy
department is shifting some Of the Off
GERS on the battleships Oregon and Iowa
preparatory to their departure from New
York on their long cruise to San Fran
cisco by way of the straits of Magel-
ian. The department has just selected
from among the fleet of golfers ac-
CURED during the war four of the best
ana largest to accompany the battleships
on their long run.
These are the Cassius, Scindia, Alexan-
ger and A~berendia, and their coal capac-
ity IS sufficient to insure a full supply for
the battleships as we'll as for themselves,
without subjecting the fleet to the refusal
OF any Of the South American republics
10 take on coal on account of the technical
existence OF a state of war between the
united states and Spain. .
NO attempt is to be made to drive the
pig SHIPS so as to equal the famous run
OF the oregon coming eastward, the need
Tor the ships on the Pacific side not being
so pressing. as to warrant the risk of in
?urlng the boilers or machinery by keep
ing up full speed.
1T is expected that the battleships with
.nelr golfers will be able to start from
new York about the end Of the month.

WESTMlNSTtR'S AFTERMATH.
Day Succeeding Fire Presents Many
Peculiar Scenes.

Day Succeeding Fire Presents Many
Peculiar Scenes
Vancouver, B. c., Sept. 12.-At New
Westminster today there are many Pc
culiar scenes after the fire.
On a wide. open space just beyond
where the fearful fire stopped a city of
tents has arisen. Here the privincial
government and Vancouver authori-
ties have housed in tents, lent by the
militia department, all homeless suf-
ferers.
Blankets by hundreds formed beds
and burned out families are as COM
Portable as possible under the circum-
stances.
The victims of the flames have borne
ruin stoically. All through the hours
Of the conf1agration they were calm
as death; today they are just the same.
Their losses have made them almost
insensible to thought.
There was nc panic of the crowd Of
burned out and desolate people. They
only appeared intent on saving what
they had been able to secure from
their destroyed homes.
A number of robberies took place
during the fire. Johnson's boot store
was entered while some of the stock
was being taken out and several men
were noticed deliberately helping
themselves to boot which might fit
them. Johnson a that the firms
loss will be about $4,000 or $4,000. The
chief Of police believes hal the fire
was started by a spark from a steamer,
which ignited hay on Brakeman &
Kerr's wharf.
Already active merchants of the
royal city are starting to rebuild
stores and new business.
The Canadian Pacific station M
baggage room burned. but everything
OF value was saved.
One sick mother in New Westmin-
ster, who had to be carried out of a
house in danger, suddenly remembered
that her ~3-year-old child was missing.
h sent her husband back to look for
the child and he found the baby
crouching down behind the stove, fear
stricken. The rescue was made only
just in time.
The insurance companies interested
in the losses are: London Assurance

RAPID CITY, SOUTH DAKOTA

New York, Sept. IA dispatch to
the Press from Camp Wikoff says:
Under peremptory orders from General
Miles preparations are being made to
break up this camp at once by sending
home all the soldiers here. This is en-
tirely contrary to what has been the
understanding of the officers in COM
mand. General Shafter said asst week
that 5000 or 1000 men would be kept
here at least until October n this
was supposed to ave been the order Of
Secretary Alger. An officer said today
that when General Miles order came
a telegram was sent him saying that
his order vas contrary to that Of Sec
rotary Alger, n Miles replied:
Never mind what Alger says, I am
in now"
That Of course settled it so far as the
officers here are concerned and unless
General Miles orders are counter
manded, nex week will see the prac-
teal end Of Camp Wikoff.
General Bates said: "My orders are
to send the troops away as fast as
transportation can be arranged"
When asked if these orders did not

he simply said, "They are new ORDERS"
In pursuance of this plan the deten-
ton hospital is being abandoned. ALI
the men in this hospital fit to travel
are being sent to New York on the
Shinnecock and the others are being
taken to the general hospital, which
is being cleared out as fast as possible,
but there are 200 or 300 cases that can
not be moved without danger.
Strong frame buildings are now be-
ing erected for the use of these pa
tients. These buildings will be fin
ished in two or three days and the
worst cases will be move into them.
Nearly all of these are typhoid fever
cases. to move which would cause a
frightful mortality. Major Brown
said that he thought there would be
about fifty cases which could not be
moved for two or three weeks at least.

It seems that the supreme court of
Rhode Island was entirely unanimous
in it's decision in two cases recently be-
fore 1t which involved the right Of
Christian Scientists as practitioners to
heal diseases without lawful license.
The court ruled that the words "prac-
tice OF medicine" must be construed as
applying to the practice Of medicine as
ordinarily understood and that the acts
of the defendants did not constitute 9
yiolatiors;Df the law. The Christian Sci
entists were accordingly discharged.
