for that evening and was largely at

known and a call for volunteers
announced, the first to arise in
response was Harry w. Lawton.

companies were organized and sub

Manila, Nov. 15.-Gen. Young is sup
posed to have reached San Nicolas,
about thirty miles east Of Dagupan,
but his wagons are far behind. Col.
Hayes has captured Aguinaldo's secre-
tary and Mai. Coleman is in Carrang-

his family are prisoners. The general

/ The correspondent Of the Associated
Press. with Gen. Young, telegraphs
from San Jose that Aguinaldo did not
escape to the northeast. He n his
army, the correspondent adds, are sur
rounded. His last orders to the Fill
ipino commander at San Jose were to
hold San Jose and Carranglan at all
costs.
The recent encounters are too one.

gents are mortally afraid of the Amerl-
cans, however strong their posltlon.
They make but a brief and feeble re-
sistance and run when the terrible
| American veil reaches thei ears,
whereupon the Americans pursue n
slay many. The moral effect. OF d
news that 10000 troops are on tnelr
way here has been unquestionably
great. The insurgents are suffering
more from disease than the Americans,
owing to poor food, lack of medicines
and filthy hospitals, with the result
that there is great mortality among
then. Gen. Lawton has intercepted a
telegram from an insurgent captain to
a Filipino general, reading:
GLOW can you blame me for retreat
ing when only twelve Of my company
were able to fight"

Made a Stubborn Resistance, but
Was Forced to C~apitulate.

Puerto Cabello, Venez.. Nov. IA. -
Gen. Parades, former commander in
the army Of eX-President Andrade,
who had refused the demand made
upon him by Gen. Castro and the de
facto authorities to surrender the
town, even when this was reinforced
by the request of the British, Ameri-
can, French, German and Dutch CON-
nlapders, surrendered yesterday morn
ing after a terrible battle. The aspect
of the city is one of ruin and devasta-
tion,and it is estimated that upward
of $50 persons were killed or wounded
during the fighting.
DIR. Braisted, Of the United States
cruiser Detroit, and the other surgeons
of the various warships in the harbor,
are ministering' to the wants Of the
wounded. Gen. Ramon Guerrero be-
gan a land attack upon the town and
the position Of Gen. Parades on Fri
day night. Desultory fighting con-
tinued until Saturday morning about
4 o'clock, and then a fierce struggle
ensued. Gen. Parades made n stub
born defense, but Gen. Guerrero forced
an entrance into the town at 5 o'clock
Saturday. AS early as 8 o'clock Sun
day morning the feet arrived and be-
gan a bombardment, but the range was
too great and the firing proved inef-
fective. Gen. Parades held the fort on
the hill and Fort Liberador until yes
terday morning.

One White Man and i've Indians
Killed.
Flagstaff, Ariz., Nov. 14.-One white
and five Navajo Indians killed, two
whites and one Navajo wounded was
the result of an attempt of a deputy
sheriff to arrest a Navajo yesterday
ten miles south of Walnut station,
news Of which has just reached here.
On Nov. 6 a band of six Navajos who
were hunting on Canon Padre, below
Anderson Rim, in this county, held up
William Montgomery, Il cowboy IN
the employ Of William Roden, a cattle
man. They accused him of stealing
horses and threatened to kill him. He
came to Flagstaff and obtained a war
rant for their arrest and, with Deputy
Hogan, left to make the arrests. At
Rodents camp they were joined by
William Roden and Walter Durham.
Arriving at the camp the party dis
mounted. anticipating a fight. Hogan
attempted to execute the warrant n
entered a brush corral where four OF
the Navajos were, when the Indians
made resistance and a shot was hred
at Hogan, striking him in the back, ne
at the same time being in a tussel with
n Navajo who was trying to shoot
him. Hogan drew his pistol and killed
his antagonist. The fight became gen
eral and ended when the ammunition
of the white men was exhausted.

POOR MANAGEMENT.

Shortage of Teachers in Minnehaha
County Attributed to 1t.
Educational circles in Minnehaha
county have been surprised by the an
nouncement that there are in the
county about twenty country schools
which are at present closed because Of
the inability of the boards to secure
teachers. There is not a shortage Of
teachers, as this state of affairs would
indicate, but it appears that some Of
the school authorities believed consid-
cradle money could be saved to the
taxpayers by reducing the salaries Of
teachers, and the result is that prices
have been reduced to such an extent
that competent teachers are unable to
accept the positions. 1t is probable
the school boards will have to raise
the salaries to the former standard be-
fore the schools can again be opened.

Thirty-sixth infantry, Slaven's scouts:
Troop E. Fourth cavalry, a battalion Of
the Twenty-second regiment and Cat
ling guns. The scouts, mounted, pre-
coded the main body up the railroad.
They met 100 rebels at Murcia, but the
insurgents quickly retreated. The
scouts found the depot burning, Dut
extinguished the fire and saved the
building. The main column marched
up the Wagon road. but before reach
ing Tarlac, divided, entering the town
on two sides at 8 o'clock without q
shot being fired. The insurgents a
evacuated the place only a few hours
before, setting fire to the railway sta
ton and the rolling stock. They left
a rear guard Of 100 men, who, howev-
er, failed to make a stand and cover
the retreat of the main force Of the in
surgents, as they had probably been
ordered to do. The rebel ordnance is
reported to have been shipped to the
town of O'Donnell. The Americans
are continuing their advance so rapid
ly that the insurgents have not the
time necessary to destroy the railroad.

Walker used it for a short time.
A member Of Company H states that
the downfall Of James Hamilton, a
nov a member Of the Thirty-sixth U.
S. infantry, from which organization
he recently deserted, was due to gamb-
ling. Hamilton received $4G0 as a
bounty, and lost the money a few days
afterward. The loss of the money
preyed on his mind and is said to have
caused him to rashly desert his com
pany. 1t is predicted that he will get
a light sentence-probably two years
in a military prison.

NEW TRIAL.
The Case of Emerlfng Against the
Bank at Pembina.

Bank at Pembina.
Word has been received at Grand
Forks that the case of Mrs. Amelia
Emerling against the First National
Bank Of Pembina, w. j. Kneeshaw, re-
ceiver, has been remanded to the fed
eral district court Of North Dakota for
a new trial. During the period when
L. f. Booker was president Of the
Pembina bank. Mrs. Emerling. Il wild
ow, resident of Walhalla, deposited
with him for collection, a number Of
notes and other securities, amounting
in value to about $4,000. The bank
subsequently failed, and Mrs. Emer-
ling's money and securities We're not
forthcoming. . She had Mr.. Bo0ker's
receipts for the papers, but the bank
people claimed that these were given
by Mr.. Booker personally. and not as
an officer of the bank, and that they
were, therefore, not responsible. This
view of the case was taken by Judge
Amidon, before whom the case was
tried last spring. The matter was ap-
pealed to the United States circuit
court Of appeals and Judge Amidon
vas reversed.
Word has been received at Grand
Forks that Linus Cults, a man eighty.
three years Of age, had committed sui
eide at the residence Of c. c. Wagner,
six miles south Of Larimore, where he
has made his home for the last year.
Very little appears to be known of the
mans past, but the arrangements
which he made for board, ETC., were
satisfactory, and his affairs were not
inquired into. He had, however, fire.
quently spoken Of an old love affair, in
which he suffered disappointment. At
such times he had been moody and de-
spondent, and he had, on more than
one occasion, threatened suicide.
While seated in the dining he
seized a knife and plunged it into his
right thigh, severing the main artery.
He then Withdrew the knife and sat
there calmly and watched the flow of
blood until he bled to death.
