DEPARTMENT.
Washington June 13-The Government Print
ing Office has added another feat to its wonder
full record OF achievements. II has been known
to print an edition OF the Revised Statutes In
single night; and only few weeks ago the re-
port OF the Court OF Inquiry into the cause OF
the Maine disaster was turned out by this great
establishment In one night. including the Illus
trations which accompanied II. Saturday after
noon at $3.50 o'clock Secretary Gage delivered
into the hands OF Captain Bryan foreman OF
printing the material to be used in the prepara-
ton OF circulars relative to the loan
authorized by the bill approved by the President
to-day. Almost four million OF these circulars.
subscription blanks and pamphlets descriptive
OF the bonds required. Captain Bryan
hesitated as to whether the Government Print
ing Office. with its vast facilities would be
able TO accomplish great an undertaking In
the time required; that is between $3.50 p m. on
Saturday and a. m on Monday, It being the
desire Of Secretary Gage that Atty Of the most
rapid mailing clerks in the Treasury Depart
ment be in possession Of the material at the
latter hour
This morning before the time indicated, the
entire work OF printing had been done. and a
wagon from the Government Printing ONCE ut
thousand OF each of the circulars blanks and
pamphlets required. The Treasury force is busy
to-day preparing for the mails the enormous
number OF papers that will be sent out to all

cooperation OF the postmaster at Washington
and the Superintendent Of the Railway Mall Ser
vice. and by their direction the bundles are
being prepared according 10 States and Terri
tories. and sent TO the postoflce In instalments.
BY Tomorrow noon this work will all have been
accomplished. and these messages from the
Treasury will be on their way to millions OF
American citizens. 1t Is probable that never
before has so systematic and energetic an ef-

DISCREDITS RUMOR OF SURRENDER

London. June 13.-secretary Briggs. Of the
Manila Railway Company, who Is in constant
communication with Manila. discredits the ru-
mors In circulation as to the surrender OF that
place. He received cable message from Ma
Mia yesterday, via Hong Kong. reporting that
the road was working. and no mention was
made Of the city having surrendered.
Mr. Briggs believes the Spaniards would sur
render to Rear-Admiral Dewey In preference TO
being conquered by the insurgents The Sec
rotary is informed that full understanding
exists between Admiral Dewey and the insur-
gents and 1t is generally believed at Hong Konx
and Manila that before Aguinaldo. the insur-
gent leader consented to return to Manila ne
secured pledges that the United States would
not leave him In the lurch by returning the
Philippine Islands to the Spanards.
Referring to the Spanish stories OF alleged in
surgent atrocities. Mr.. Briggs says they are
utter nonsense. He adds that the natives OF the
Philippine Islands are the mildest people in the
world. and asserts that all the Europeans there
were surprised that they mustered up courage
enough to revolt.

WASHINGTON COMMENT on THE FIGHT.

Washington. June 13-The news Of the attack
nv Standards on the United States Marines at
Guantanamo Bay Saturday night was not con-
6rned by onicial advices up to the close OF the
day here However. there Is no disposition TO
question the accuracy Of the press reports ana
the news has had rather SOLDERING effect on the
element that has insisted on rushing troops FOR
ward regardless OF their unpreparedness sat
urday nights action shows that the Spaniards
are not afraid to charge boldly on United states
troops. and the prospects OF bushwhackins
warfare are anything but agreeable to the per-
sons who have been hoping for short cam
paign.
A good deal Of surprise Is expressed AT the
failure Of the reports to mention any substantial
aid received from the insurgents by the United
States Marines canned on Crest Hill. KEN
forcements were sent from the ships. but II does
not appear that the Marines had help from the
men best calculated from their experience IN
Jungle fighting to be of service in an encounter
with Spanish guerillas. Without any disparage-
ment Of the fighting ability Of the Marines, who
appear to have acquitted themselves with the
greatest credit far as their bravery ana
Bteadiness under fire are concerned. the ques
lion has been raised in the minds Of the MILL
tary experts whether falling In any substantial
assistance from the Cubans. who were reported
to have been so numerous in the vicinity. West
ern soldiers trained In Indian fighting, would
not be Of more service in a Cuban jungle cam
paign Nothing so severely tries the courage
and endurance Of troops as TO be shot at from
cover by an unseen foe. and only soldiers
trained In the latest skirmish drill can renoer
effective service In such attacks.

CONTRADICTS AMERICAN REPORTS.

Madrid June Is. p ma semi-ofiicial note
issued to-day emphatcally contradicts all the
American reports of the operations In Cuba. and
even denies that American forces have effected

The note concludes "
The European press will make a mistake In
imagining Spain Is discouraged and at the end
Of her resources On the contrary. Spain Is full
Of hope and determined to continue the war"
