The three men arrested yesterday

committed in default Of $1,000 bail
each for further hearing tomorrow.
Little was developed at the hearing.
District Attorney Beck said the gov
eminent would contend that the de-
PENDANTS were simply the tools Of
others. The overt act. Mr.. Beck said,
consisted in the fact that on Satur-
day. Oct. IA. two Of the thres defend
ants approached the brother-in- law of
zone of the jurors with the request that
he influence the Juror to vote against
conviction. The juror was to receive
$500 and the brother-in-law $500. The
district attorney asserted that other
attempts were made to bride.
The name of the juryman was not

Families Fleeing For Their Lives
From the Bottom Lands.
Denison, Tex, Nov 23.-This sec
ton is in the early stages of a flood
that threatens to be the most disas-
trous known In many years. Thou
sands of acres of valuable farming
lands are already under water, and
families are fleeing for their lives from
the bottom lands.
The situation is decidedly serious, as
It is thought that many houses will
be swept away. The Washita, the lar
gest river in the Indian Territory, is
at the highest stage ever known.
Great damage has been done by the
high water. The town of Pauls Valley,
on the Santa Fe, in the territory is re-
ported by telephone as under water.
No trains are crossing the Santa Fe
railway bridge near Gainesville.
All the large streams in the south
ern portion of the Indian Territory are
out of their banks. and enormous
damage has been done to farming
lands. There Is no ferry communica-
ton between Texas and the territory.

REBELS NOW BOUND FOB ILooos.

Gen. Lawton. Too, Is Rushing North
ward With . View to Preventing the
Enemy's Escape-Manila Reported
to Be Threatened by Highbinders.
Manila, Nov. 23.-The next move Of
importance in the chase for Aguinaldo
is to be made by General Wheaton,
who will 60 up the coast by transport
to Vigan, at the mouth of the Abea
river. This will land his forces far to
the north Of where Aguinaldo is sup
posed to be, the intention being to cut
off his retreat to the north. East Of
the route Aguinaldo is taking are
mountains, inhabited by tribes which
are not friendly to Aguinaldo. and
would be likely to attack him II he at
tempted to cross their territory. Tho
country along the coast is quite we'll
settled. There are several little rivers,
making harbors from which 1t is fear
ed Aguinaldo may escape by boat.
General Young, It Is believed. is watch
ing these smaller ports with part OF
his force.
It does not appear that the efforts to
capture Aguinaldo and the larger por-
tion of his army will be successful.
The intention of General Young to
prevent Aguinaldo reaching Bayom-
bong seems evident. but this seems
scarcely probable now.
News from the pursuit Of Aguinaldo
is not expected for day or two. Yes

ton by courier from General Young

Aguinaldo's destination Is 1locos.
With General Lawton's troops In
position to move toward Bayombong
by every road from the south and with
impenetrable mountains, peopled by
unfriendly, semi-savage tribes behind
Bayombong would be poor refuge.
It Ia reported that General LAYTON
is moving northward from Tayung
with infantry to head off Aguinaldo.
General Young has only. one troop
of cavalry and the Macabbes, who
originally numbered 300. 'Aguinaldoi
Is supposed to have two days start
from Avahgay.:
General Macarthur, 1t is known
here, is operating not far from Tar
lac. No alarm is felt regarding the
situation of General Wheaton. who
has been for some time beyond tele-
graphic communication.
Manila is threatened by highbinders.
The Chinese imperial consul general
has come into conflict with a China
man in Manila named Palanco, a
mandarin and the uncrowned king OF
all the Chinese in the Philippines. He
is man of great wealth and influence

rather than to the consul general. and
is antagonizing the latter on the ground
that he has no right to exercise any
