been provided this year. The report
urges course of cooking, nursing and
economic housekeeping for girls, max
ing them homemakers in the highest

AFFAIRS IN LUZON.
A Correspondent Thinks the End Not Near
General Otis Reports.

Washington, Dec. 7.-General Otis has
cabled the war department as follows
respecting the military situation in Lu-
zon: "In central Luzon there is no in
surgent force of Importance except in
Bulacan province, near the mountains,
where General Pillar holds together a
thousand or more men, which will be
attacked soon. General Grant has
moved a small column down the east
coast of Bataan province and encoun-
tered little opposition. A column NOV
ing westward from the mountains is ex-
pected to reach the western coast Of
Luzon on the 10th instant. Many small
insurgent armed bands are in the coun-
try robbing, and in some instances, muir
dering the inhabitants, which are being
pursued by troops quite successfully.
To the south of Manila the insurgents
still maintain their positions. but the
necessary force to scatter them will be
sent there soon.
New York, December IA dispatch
to the Herald from Manila says: The
hope of ending the insurrection and
halting military operations in the Phil
ippines, which seemed bright a few
days ago, has again faded into the un-
certain future. The insurgents have
had a series Of routs and disasters. The
slaughter has been great. They lost a
large quantity of supplies and NUM-
tions of war, and more than 1000 Of
their armed mem have surrendered or
BEEN captured Their government has
been scattered or captured. NotWith-
standing these things, there is no rea-
son for an extreme optimistic view of
the situation. The field commanders
now think the end still afar. 1t is ad-
mitted that little is definitely known of
the present strength or whereabouts of
the insurgents. Aguinaldo entire army
is estimated at 10000 to 10000 armed
men, scattered throughout the islands.
There are $4,000 American soldiers in
the Philippines, $4,000 being in Luzon.
These are greatly scattered.
Manila, December There has been
mutiny of the native police in one of
the towns ON the island of Negros. An
American officer was killed. No partic-
ulars have yet been received.

mission is in session today.

legged to have been pursued by the Re-
publicans of Louisville. He declared

prived of 10000 votes. The judicial acts
Of Judge Toney in issuing orders from
the court directed against Democratic
election officials We're declared to be an
unlawful assumption of authority The
Republican state officials had, Harris
declared, filled the streets Of Frankfort
with drunken, lawless mob" for the
purpose of over-aweing the board in the
discharge of it's sworn duty.
Commissioner Ellis said to-day there
was little probability of decision by
the board being reached before Satur-
day.

Indorsed the Chicago Platform.

The Democrats of Lackawanna county
have the laugh on the Republicans of
the Third Legislative district OF that
county. The latter held their conven-
tion the other day, and Of course had a
committee on resolutions, as such bodies
usually have. That committee, or some
body for them, drew up series OF de-
cIarations, which were duly reported,
read to the convention and adopted with
shout. Among the resolutions was
the following:
"Thc Republican party of tho Third
assembly district of Lackawanna county,
in convention assembled, reaffirm their
allegiance to the fundamental principles
of the Republican party as they were
formulated by its founders and affirmed
by the Chicago platform"

Evans Guilty of Libel.

The libel case in which James Lough-
ran was the plaintiff and William
Evans, a reporter on the Hazleton Sen
ttnel, the defendant, was completed be-
fore Judge Mcclure in court on Friday
and the jury returned a verdict of
guilty. The defense did not offer any
evidence. Judge Mcclure in his charge
to the jury analyzed the law relating to
libel in way that the jurymen could
not help but understand. The main
allegation that cropped out in the eyi-
dence was that the defendant, Evans,
had malice against Loughran and this
had great bearing upon the jury.
The jury reached the verdict on the
first ballot. Evans counsel filed a mo-
tion and reasons for a new trial.
The libel case against c. b. Snyder,
formerly owner and editor OF the Sen
tineI, and that grew out OF the same
article, has been nolle pressed.
The application for new trial was
refused and Mr.. Evans was sentenced
to pay fine OF $25 and the costs OF the
case

Police MuddIe in Court,

The fight between the mayor OF
Wilkesbarre and the police committee
OF council was taken into court on Fri
day when Mayor Nichols petitioned the
court to grant an injunction to prevent
select council from interfering with the
work of the police department. The
trouble arises from the action of the
mayor in making the police do spy work
on saloon keepers who sell on Sunday.
Councils say the police are employed to
preserve the peace, not to break it,
which they do when they enter saloons
and call for beer in order to trap the
saloon men.
The police committee of councils
has served notice on all the policemen
that If they carry out the mayors
orders they will subject themselves to
dismissal for conduct unbecoming to Off
GERS. The court is asked to decide
whether the councils have the power to
discharge policemen while carrying out
the orders Of the mayor.
