The Filipino Leader Talks Of
Fight to the Bitter End"
DENIES oVERTUREs OF PEACE.

The "Tinclads' Laguna de Bay aud
Cavadonga Run Into Nest of Insur-
gents and We're Receivedwith Heavy
volleys at Short Range.
London, May 16.-The Filipino junta
here has received the following mes
sage from Aguinaldo, cabled from
Hong Kong under date of May ~:
1.-THE Filipino government, in ac-
cordance with the general feeling of
the country, has decided to continue
the war, at all costs, until independence
is secured
"The Filipinos theoretically refuse
the American peace overtures. based
on restricted autonomy, coupled with
promises of subsequent self govern
ment.
THE Filipinos demand a strict full
filment Of the articles Of the American
constitution and treaties contracted by
the American representatives when i'm
ploring Filipino alliance in com.
batting the Spaniards.
"All of the Filipino generals support
Aguinaldo. General Luna's reported
overtures for peace are untrue Our
ANY, Is near Manila. simultaneously
attacking the whole American line.
THE heat and rains are causing
many casualties in the American army.
All the hospitals are crowded with sick
and wounded. Four hundred of the
Cincinnati ~ regiment have been i'm
prlsoned by General Otis for insub-
ordination in refusing to fight. The
regular troops quartered in Manila and
other towns are quiet. The volunteers
are abused, and are always at the
front, with scanty rations.
This discomfort between the Amerl-
cans and Europeans is general"
The "tinclads" Laguna de Bay and
Cayadonga and launch under Cap
tain Grant ran into nest of insur-
gents concealed in the brush and on
both sides of the Rio Grande river,
three miles above Calumpit, and were
received with heavy volleys at short
range. A sergeant belonging to the
Utah battery was killed and one pri-
vate wounded.
Opening with their rapid fire guns,
the Americans killed 20 Of the natives
and wounded several others, filling this
jungle with shot after shot for half an
hour until the enemy fled.
1.-THE general accuracy of the in
received in London may be
gagged by the reference to the Gin
cinnati regiment. The state of Ohio
has never had body of soldiers SO ac-
credited in the Philippine islands.l

ALLEGED NEGRO BRUTALITY.
Negress Nearly Lynched For Terribly
Burning Her Children.

Negress Nearly Lynched For Terribly
Burning Her Children.
Atlanta, Ga, May 16.-Winnie Roach,
a mulatto woman, came near being
lynched by mob of negroes last night.
The crime with which she and her
husband were charged was brutally
burning their four children nearly to
death by igniting paper saturated with
kerosene, with which their bodies had
been wrapped. The man, Lawrence
Roach, ran away during the afternoon
when he heard that his treatment Of
the children had been reported to the
police. The woman was in the house
when the mob gathered, and was in
the act of applying more fire to one OF
the children when the crowd broke in.
Telephone messages were sent to the
police station by white people living
in the neighborhood, who said they
believed the woman was about to be
burned by the crowd. A wagonload Of
officers was sent to the place.
One OF the children had all the flesh
burned from her legs in several places,
and will die. The other three are
badly burned.

paILADHLpHlA,s EXPOSITION.
Great Britain Accepts the Invitation
to Send Representatives.

treat Britain Accepts the Invitation
to Send Representatives.
Philadelphia, May 16.-Great Britain
will be officially represented at the
International commercial congress to
be held here In connection with next
falls national export exposition. For
NAL notice of such was received yes
terday by the exposition authorities
In the form of communication from
the foreign Office, London, through As
sistant Secretary of State Hill.
The invitation to the British govern
ment was sent out through the state
department at Washington. With 1t
were sent invitations to every British
colony. The invitations to the colonies
numbered 35, there being that number
of English colonial governments.
The exposition authorities feel con-
fident that the favorable action Of the
mother country will be followed by all
of the So colonies, each of which was
asked to send delegates fitted to dis
cuss some phase of international COM
merce. 1t is believed that 1t will also
have its effect upon the chambers Of
commerce and other commercial Or
CARNATIONS in the United States and
all the English colonies, which have
been invited to send delegates. The
influence will doubtless also be felt
among the 10000 foreign business
firms which have been urged to send
their buyers or representatives to the
exposition.

vivors of the Arikhama. +" She mad read
the account There was Edward Con-
ways name. It was all true-tco true
And up stairs. Ill and PROSTATE, lay the
man who had come to be all the world
to her, the man who had taken her,
poor and alone as she was and made
her the mistress Of his heart and Of his
home. And he was ignorantl She would
have to tell him-to tell him that she
was not his wife, to tell him that she
was the wife and not the widow Of the
man who had bought her with price,
who had outraged her, who had struck
her.
And he had told that story Of how he
had been only few months married to
a young wifel She wondered bitterly
whether he had told them that he had
so far forgotten his marriage vows that
he had struck the young wife in those
early days of their marriageH Three
years three years-three wholly bless
ed years without one sad thought, with
out one harsh word, without one regret;
three years Of pure and unalloyed hap
piness. Well, she would always have
that to look back to. Perhaps she ought
not to grumble or to be surprised that
fate had been minded to bring her hap
piness to an end 1t was like the regis
tration Of sunshine in London. Some
people got little happiness filtered out
in driblets over long life Of great dull
ness. She had had three blessed years
Of glory, and now the time would be all
gray, like London fog. She had regis.
tered three years of sunshine, and, like
poor London, she must put in the aver
age Of mist and fog.
She sat for some little time longer
indeed until John came to clear the ia
bic. Then, from some woman's instinct
Of hiding the tragedy through which
she was passing she rose and carried
the paper to the fire and stood there
reading an account of the fancy dress
ball given by the lady mayoress Of Lon
don-aye, and reading it attentively.
They had been present thereat. Her
dress was described-her dress and
Alan s-almost side by side with the
words which told Of the rescue Of the
survivors of the AFikhama.
Then John betook himself away, and
she was once more left alone She form
ed no plans, her dazed brain refused to
take in anything more than the stern
and bare facts. Edward Conway was
alive-on his way home-eager and
anxious to find her. And she was here,
in the old Fulham house, masquerad-
ing to the world as Alan Stacey's hon
ored wife!
And Alan would have to be told He
would have to see the papers; he would
have to decide where she was to go,
what she was to do, how she could best
hide herself from the monster who had
legal right over her.
She was still sitting there, when II
strokes Of the clock warned her that the
morning was passing - when they
should have warned her, for Mary did
not move from her place beside the fire.
Then smart housemaid came in with
a message.
"Please, ma am, master is much bet
ter, and if you have quite done with
the paper he would be glad If you would
send it up stairs to him."

How the Whisky Trustwas Worked"
Washington, May 16.-General John
McNulta, receiver Of the Distilling and
Cattle Feeding company, was wit
ness before the industrial commission
yesterday. General McNulta gave
some of the details regarding his re-
Ownership. 1t was found, he said,
that one distillery at Nebraska City,
Neb., had been sold for $4,000 at pri-
yate sale, and later was bought by the
Distilling and Cattle Feeding company
for $4,000. There was another case
in which one who was later an officer
of the company had purchased distill
cry and sold it to the company for
$2S0,0O0 more than he gave for it.
These and other things resulted in the
witness filing bill against number
of individuals, including some officers,
to recover $500. 600.

the state. These options have been ex-
tended once Of twice, and the last re-
newal expired yesterday. Charles e.

promoting the deal, is in the city and
has secured an extension of the op-
tions until June /. The purchase price

goods on hand will aggregate from
$75O,000 to $1,000,00O. The Virginia
peanut cleaning establishments are To-
Gated at Norfolk, Smithfield, Suffolk,
