CONTINUOUS FIGHTING.
Philippine Insurgents Give the :
Spaniards No Rest.

Spaniards No Rest.
London, June 16-The Shanghai cor
respondent of the Daily Telegraph,
forwarding advices he has received
from Manila up to June 8, says:
On June the insurgents forced the
passage of the Sempole river and cap
tured Las Pinas and Paranaki. Since
then. up to the time my adyices left
Manila, the fighting had been contlnu-
Gus and the Spaniards were being
gradually driven in. The fall OF the
city seems imminent before the arrival
of American forces. Manila is abso-
lutely incapable of resisting lombard
ment. Admiral Dewey is surprised at
the rebel progress, but the SDaniards
suspect that the insurgents are light
ing under American guidance. The
defenders Of the city have suffered
severely from the incessant attacks
and from want of food and rest, and
the hospitals and churches are
crowded with the wounded.

NICE PRIZE FOR SAMPSON.
SPanish Vessel Sails for Cuba with
Supplies

Spanish Vessel Sails for Cuba With
Supplies.
Copyright, 1898. by Associated Press.)
Kingston, JAM, June 1S.-The Span
iSh steamer Purissima Conception,
loaded with food for ManzaniIlo. left
Kingston at o'clock in the morning,
taking a westward course. The col
onial authorities ignored the protest of
the United States consul general as
not based on sufficient evidence, and
gave the ship her clearance. The Con-
cepcion arrived at Kingston in the lat
ter part of May from Manzanillo with
a Spanish officer in disguise seeking
supplies. She has already on board a
large amount which has been obtained
elsewhere, But at Kingston she be-
gan at once to take on -four, corn and
rice, purchasing in all $500 bags of
corn from Jamaican merchants. The
colonial authorities were informed by
her owners that clearance papers
would be asked for non-blockaded
port like Manzanillo, on the south
coast on the bay of Guanayaro. Unit
ed States Consul Dent made repre-
sensations to the government of the
island against the vessel and careful
inquiry was instituted, the officials
promising that if Mr.. Dent could fur
nish specific proof that her captain in
tended to
Run for BIOckaded Port
they would refuse to allow her to load.
An attempt was made by her owners
to change her register. A we'll known
Kingston merchant agreed to take a
bill of sale, registering as a British
owner, but he withdrew when the
government pointed out the liability
he would incur if she violated the neu-
trality laws. Another attempt to OBJ
tain register Of ownership was made,
this time through an irresponsible
clerk, but the government refused per-
mission to the proposal unless he
could fortify it with bond with two
resident sureties for the full value of
the ship. Mr.. Dents protest failing,
the Conception, according to dis
patches from Kingston, has been plan
ming to leave as secretly as possible,
in the hope, under cover of darkness,
of evading capture. There has never
been the least doubt in the mind of
Mr.. Dent that the supplies and pro
visions, though loaded nominally for
an unblockaded port, are destined Ill
timately for Gen. Blanco's troops.
There is little likelihood that she will
reach her destination, as Admiral
Sampson is fully aware of her plans
and has probably detailed q fast aux
1liary cruiser to capture her and the
Spanish officer, Lieutenant Command
er Joaquin Montague who is under
stood to have left Kingston with her.

A FATALITY AVOIDED.
From the Democrat, Goshen. Tnd.l

When neuralgia is accompanied by d
dull, heavy pain near the heart, frequently
becoming intense, it generally terminates
fatally. Mrs. Nancy Flynn, wholives near
Goshen, Indiana, survived such an attack
and her advice is worth needing.
I'm the fall of 3d. she said, 81 began to
to have trouble with my heart. There was
sharp pain in my breast which became
rapidly worse. The doctor was puzzled and
put me under the influence of opiat es.
These sharp attacks followed one another at
intervals, and I became weak and had
haggard look. was constantly in pain,
seldom slept and had no appetite.
AT the end of two years was confined
to my couch most of the time and the
doctors agreed that my death was only
matter of short time.

FEDERAL COURT NOTES
Suit to Have an Insurance Policy Set
Aside

A complaint was filed in the United States
circuit court by the Royal Insurance COM
pany of Liverpool England, and Orient In
surance company of Hartford, Conn, against
H. r. Hildreth of San Diego. Defendant in
sured his two-story frame house and all the
appurtenances thereof for $4,000 in each of
the above companies and his household
goods, including his library, for $500. On
April 18th last the house took fire and
burned down with all its contents. Plain
tiffs now claim that the amount is greatly
in excess of the value of the property, which
has been appraised at $l7s2 on the house
and $500 on the furniture. They ask the
court to set aside the terms of the policy

WRIT OF MANDATE
Palms Petition for More Supplement.
tai Registers Argued


The petition OF Chas. W. Palm, for q
writ of mandate to compel the county clerk
and board of supervisors to order the print
ing OF a greater number of copies of the sup
Elemental register than the 75O contracted
tor, came before Judge Clark for hearing
yesterday. Plaintiff was represented by z.
w. Meserve and defendants by Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Holton and F. p. Flint.
At the time when bids wre asked for the
work Palm made bid for 1880 copies, in
addition to the $50 advertised for, and de-
manded that the contract be awarded to
him on the ground that $50 copies were not
sufficient to meet the requirements of the
law. He pointed out that the statute re-
quired ten copies for each precinct and
fifty copies additional for each thousand
votes cast at the last preceding general
election. This view of the case was ex-
pounded forcibly by Attorney Meserve Mt
yesterdays hearing, which showed the
point of difference between Mr.. Palm and
the honorable board of supervisors to be
merely their respective opinions of the
construction to be placed upon the law.
Messrs. Holton and Flint maintained that
the contract let by the supervisors will more
than meet the requirements of the law.
The great register consists of precinct reg
listers bound together, and assuming that
the statute refers to the precinct register
as tne1 unit OF c0mpuCdtlOn, the great regis
ter would itself amount to 164 registers
Five hundred of these great registers hav-
ing been ordered, with $50 precinct registers
for each precinct in addition, defendants
contended that ample provision had been
made. As matter of economy, 1t was sug-
gested that the enormous number Of regis
ters which would have to be ordered if
Palms petition should be granted would
vastly exceed public requirements. Fur
thermore, objection was made to the petit
ton itself, on the score of technical de-
fects.
The matter was ordered submitted on
briefs. A decision is expected within q
day or two.
