FILlPINOS ROUTED.
Attacked in Their Trenches and Scat
tered Over the Mountains.

Manila, December 27-Colonel Lock-
ett, with a force of $500 men, includ
ing artillery. this morning attached
strong force of insurgents .entrenched
in the mountains near Mentaiban,
about five miles northeast Of San Ma
teo. The enemy was completely rout
ed, the Americans pursuing them
through the hills, amid which they fed
in every direction. Four Americans
were wounded. The Filipino loss was
large, resulting from a heavy infantry
and artillery fire for three hours into
the trenches.
1t is supposed that the insurgents
were those driven out Of San MateO on
the day General LaWton was killed.
They numbered probably 1000. A dozen
lines of insurgent trenches covered the
steep trail through the hills and like
wise the valley below, along which the
Americans passed. The main attacking
party consisted of the Forty-siXth vol
unteer infantry a troop of cavalry and
artillery, Colonel Lockett commanding
in person. The rest of the command
operated from remote points in an en-
deavor ITO carry out Colonel Lockett's
plan of throwing his line around the
enemy and thus cutting off retreat.
The nature of the mountainous couu-
try made it impracticable to execute
this movement successfully.
After the insurgents began to run,
there was a vain attempt to use arlii-
lery.

NO CAUSE FOR ALARM.

Washington, December 27.-The Ger
man warships Nike and Won Moltke.
used as training ships for naval cadets.
have arrived at Havana after a cruise
through West Indian waters. II was,
the arrival of these ships In Haytien
waters about ten days ago that caused
CONSERVATION among the officials and
people there. as IL was feared there
would be repetition OF the Leders in
cident and another demand on Hayts
backed up by German naval guns. II
appears. however. that the cruise OF fhs,
Nike and Won Moltke was arranged q
year ago and the call at Haytien port~
was entirely devoid OF Significance -
the commanders OF the ships have ~.
instructions outside Of those pertain
ing the regular cruise.

CAUSE OF BRITISH REVERSES
Declared by Astrologers to be the Pc
cu1iar Conjunction of Planets.

New York, December 27.-Hindu as
trologers,. according to Bombay papers
which have just been received, are
connecting the famine, plague and
British reverses with the peculiar con-
junction OF the planets, when on the
18th Of November seven planets were
in the sign of Scorpio. The Hindus of
Bombay, therefore, to avert further
calamity and insure success ito the
British arms, arranged for special
prayers and religious ceremonies at
one of their great temples. Seventy
five learned Brahamans officiated. The
first act was presentation of gifts to
these priests Of valuable shawls and
money. The priests then invoked di-
vine blessings on the rulers and ruled,
and the people sang hymns in Marathi
and Gujarati.
At the close Of ,.le service three
cheers were given fc- the long life,
glory and success of her majesty, the
queen empress.

MUST PAY THE TAX.
Decision Regarding Pay Orders by
Mill Operatives.

Charleston, S. c., December 27-Unit-
ed States Circuit Judge Simonton to-
day handed down a decision in the
case of CRANKY Mercantile Company,
of Columbia, against Webster, collec-
tor Of internal revenue, which involves
a very interesting question of law and
will add considerably to the Philip
pine war taxes, if all mills have the
same system of paying hands as some
Of those in this state.
Briefly stated, the Mercantile Com
pany sold goods to CRANKY mill opera
tives and the accounts when present
ed to the treasurer Of the mill were
paid out Of monies due the operatives.
In order to protect itself, the Mercan-
tile Company took vouchers for each
account and under the stamp law Col
lector Webster held that a revenue
stamp had to be attached to each and
every order. The commissioner Of in
ternal revenue sustained the collector
and the Mercantile Company paid 2
cents on 15,S47 orders. Subsequently,
suit was brought for the return of the
amount, but it has been refused by the
court and the complaint was today dis
missed.

ARMY VACANCIES.
Two Brigadfers and One Major General
to be Appointed.

Washington, December 27.-General
Gilbert S. Carpenter, who was recent
ly confirmed as brgadier general in
the regular army, has been placed on
the retired list on his own application,
after thirty years active service. His
retirement leaves two vacancies in the
list of brigadier generals, and results
in promotions in every grade of the
brigadier generals will be filled on the
re-assembling of congress by the pro-
motion and retirement Of several Of
ficers who have distinguished them
selves in action in the recent war. 1t
is popularity supposed that Generals
Macarthur, Wilson, Lee, Wheeler,
Bates, Young, Ludlow and Wheaton,
all Of whom hold volunteer commits
sions, are to be made brigadier gen.
erals in the regular army and that all
but two of the number will be immedi-
etely retired. General Macarthur will
undoubtedly be retained in active ser
vice, but there is less certainty as TO
the identity of the other general Off
GERS to be retained.
The death of General Law+ton left a
vacancy in the list Of major generals
Of volunteers, which will be filled by
the promotion Of either Generals Bates,
Young or Wheaton, all of whom are on
duty in the Philippines. The appoint
ment will be made early next week.

WHAT CHAIRMAN DANf0RTH, OF NEW
YORK, FOUND AT THE SOUTH.
TRUSTS AND IMPERIALISM
Conceded to be the Leading Issues for
the Next Campaign, While Free Sill
yer is Not Abandoned-This the Sem
the Head of the Ticket - Opposition
to Chicago for Place for Convention
and National Headquarters.

New York, December 27-Elliott
Danforth, chairman of the democratic
state committee, returned to New York
today after a trip through the south,
during which he talked with Senator
James K. Jones, chairman of the ma
tional committee, and most of the
chairmen of the southern democratic
state committees. This afternoon Mr.
Danforth gave an Evening Post report
some information about next years
national campaign:
Il found" he said, that the sentI-
ment was generally in favor of select
ing some western city other than Chi
cago as the place for holding the na-
tional convention. The members of the
national committee have a strong feel
ing against Chicago on account of
treatment they have received from the
newspapers there since they establish
/ ed headquarters in the city in 1896. It
| looks now as if either Milwaukee or
Kansas City will secure the national
| convention Milwaukee seems to be in
the lead.
II also discovered that there is a
general feeling in favor of establishing
| the headquarters of the national COM
mittee next year in Washington. Sena-
tor Jones favored Washington in 1896,
| but gave way to Mr.. Bryan, who was
| in favor of Chicago. In my trip through
| the south I observed one thing which
| will be considered of particular inter
| est in New York, namely that none Of
| the leaders seemed disposed to insist
| on free silver as the main issue of the
| campaign next year. They did not say
| that they had abandoned the 16 to
| idea, but they acknowledged that the
| situation had changed since 1885, and
| that the dominant issues next year
were trusts and imperialism. That is
| to say, they are unwilling to repudiate
| the Chicago platform, but they see that
| new issues of ia eaching Importance
have come up ely and that their
! choice should be -ccogniZed. Even in
states like North Carolina, found that
J the antitrust and anti-imperialsm
| ideas engaged the attention of the. peo-
pie more than the free silver issue. In
| fact, / might sum up my observations
| by saying that the sentiment of de-
mocracy in the south is such that I
am confident there will be little trou-
| BILE in bringing about a union of the
| democracy of the whole country next
year.
| 1.-THE democratic national conven-
| tion," said Mr.. DanfOrth, will be held
| a short time after the republican con-
| vention, according to custom. No mat
| ter when it is held there is no doubt
about the head of the ticket. Every
where heard only Mr.. Bryan's name
mentioned. They are not talking about
| candidates for vice president yet. An
eastern man will probably be Sc
| lected."

WINSTON CHURCHELL's ESCAPE.
His Account of His Perilous Journey
from Pretoria to Delagoa Bay.

London, December 27.-Mr. Winston
Spencer Churchill has cabled and The
Morning Post publishes today an ac-
count OF his escape from captivity with
the Beers after having been made a
prisoner in the reconnaissance of an
armored train at Estcourt- The dis
patch. which is dated Lourenzo
Marques, December 2lst. says:
In the evening I concealed myself
in a railway truck under a great pile
of sacks. l had a small store of good
water. The Beers searched the train
at komatipoort, but did not search
deep enough. After some sixty hours
of misery. / came safely here. am
very weak, but am free. l have lost
many pounds in weight, but am light
in heart. l shall avail myself of ev-
cry opportunity henceforth to urge
earnestly the unflinching and uncom-
promising prosecution of the war.
"On the afternoon OF December 18th
the TransvaaPs secretary of war in
formed me that there was little chance
of my release. /. therefore. resolved to
escape, and the same night / left the
state schools prison in Pretoria by
climbing the wall when the sentries'
backs were turned momentarily.
Il walked through the streets of the
town without disguise, meeting many
burghers, but was not challenged in
the crowd. 1 got through the pickets
of the town guards and struck the Del
agoa bay railroad. l walked along il,
evading the watchers at the bridges
and culverts and waited for a train be-
yond the first station. The 11:10 goods
train from Pretoria had arrived be-
fore / reached the place and was NOV
ing at full speed. I boarded it with
great difficulty and hid under coal
sacks. l jumped from the train before
dawn and was sheltered during the day
in a small wood, in company with a
huge vulture, who displayed lively
interest in me.
Il walked on at dusk. There were no
| more trains that night. The danger of
meeting the guards of the line continu-
ed. but l was obliged to follow 1t, as
| had no compass or map. l had to
make wide detours to avoid bridges,
stations and huts, and so my progress
was very slow. Chocolate is not a
satisfying food. The outlook was
gloomy, but / persevered, with God S
help. For five days my food supply
was very precarious. / was lying up
by daylight and walking by night.
Meanwhile, my escape had been dis
covered and my description telegraph
| ed everywhere. All trains were search
ed and every one was on the watch for
| for me. Four times the wrong people
were arrested.
THE sixth day l managed to board
a train beyond Middleburg, from
whence there was direct service to
Delagoa."

Savannah, Ga, December 27.-The
Trenton, n j., story that there was no
scalp band from Georgia ON the Hilton
trophy when it reached the New Jer-
sey capital, 10 indicate that it was won
last year by the Georgia team, has
caused some comment here There was
no scalp band from Georgia required
by the trophy when it left Savannah.
The only emblem placed ON it by the
Georgians was a copper shield with the
coat of arms Of the state. This was
put in place soon after the trophy was
Won in 1897 and brought to Savannah.
There was none for 1898 because the
trophy was not won that year. There
was no Sea Girt match and the trophy
simpy remained in Savannah because
no other city could ray claim 20 ii.
Captain Posten who packed the
trophy said today: The report that
the scalp band has been removed from
the trophy rs wrong. I am waiting now
TO hear from Adjutant General w. s.
Stryker, of New Jersey. 20 whom the
trophy was sent We could not get a
scalp bank so had copper medallion
made and placed at the base of the
trophy"

Messenger Mureau,

Raleigh, n. g., December "a.
The agricultural department. is ar
ranging to send a notably large and
complete exhibit, made up from the
state museum and from a special col
lection, to Paris. It will embrace for
estry products, including the timbers
of chief Importance. These will be
shown in sections lengthwise Of the
trees, polished and unpublished. Off
cinal plants will be shown; also eco
nomic fishery products; minerals. gold,
copper and iron ores, and also some
notably fine specimens of silver ore
secured this month: hundreds Of cut
and uncut gems and gem stones; cot
ton, tobacco, grain, &C; fruits and ma
tive ornamental shI1 s.
The weather has SO far been SO mild
that there has been but little suffering
among the poor. Added to this is the
fact that the number of unemployed
persons is the smallest ever known
here.
So far only two sheriffs have made
full settlement of this years taxes
with the state treasurer. This is re-
markably slow.
There is every promise of a great in
crease in the number of cotton mills
next year. Small mills continue in ia
vor in North Carolina. There is only
one very large mill: the Henrietta, in
Rutherford county.
The report Of the state auditor was
today given to the printers.
