AG UINALDO HAD TO FLEE.


Manila, December 27.-A steamer which
has arrived here from Samar reports that
the Tagalog insurgents have been in
possession of Calbayon since December II.
Business there is said to be entirely sus-
pended and all the Spania rds Of the
vicinity have sought refuge in vae house
of man named Scott, an American.
The insurgents threatened to attack
the refugees, but refrained from doing SO
because it was reported that American
soldiers were on their way there. One
Spaniard. however, was shot and another
was pluckily rescued by Scott.
All the efforts made to induce the
Visayans to join in the revolution have
been fruitless.
line situation, SO far as the insurgents
are concerned, here is serious The selec-
tion of a new cabinet has been entrusted
to Filipino named Madi nj, a rampant
irreconoilable of unknown antecedents an
a bitter opponent of AguinRldo, especially
on ths question of the Spanish prisoners.
1t is reported that Aguinaldo refused to
release the prioners although the cabinet
decided to accede to the request OF General
Otis for their release.
It is rumored that AgUinaldo fed to an
ina, cessible region back of Cavite, with
few followers. fearing assassi nation. This
report Is denied, however, but his sudden
change of base is not explained.

Brooker F. Stands, a colored plumbers
assistant, who lives at No. 466 Kernan's
Alley. Vas taken to the Emergency Hos
pital on Wednesday night in a critical
condition. suffering from what appears
to be a. case of chronic hiccough. The
man has suffered from similar acute at
tacks at intervals covering a period of
over three years. On each of these oc-
casions he has used various remedies
and succeeded in controlling the trouble
after a lapse of one and sometimes two
days.
The cures affected in these instances
have not been permanent, however. and
the attacks have frequently returned.
and each time it seems, with increased
violence.
The attack from which he Is now suf-
fering commenced about a week ago, and
despite his efforts to suppress it, has
continued necessarily since. He tried ev-
cry known remedy, but to no purpose.
Remedies which. on previous occasions,
had proved efflcacious in stopping the
hiccoughing were found to be absolutely
without effect and Stands went to the
Emergency Hospital There he was found
to be in a very weak condition, caused
by his long struggle with the exhausting
malady.
The hospital physicians set to work i'm
mediately to give him relief. They ap-
piled all known remedies, out without
success. The hiccoughing still continued
and showed no signs of abating. Though
they came at less frequent intervals
they did not decrease in violence. The
strain on the system of the man had
been a severe one, and his condition was
considered critical.
