YANARDS ESCAPING.
From Imprisonment Within the
Filipino Lines.
aysYls ARE SHORT OF RAT1oBs.

United States Prisoners OF War Are
Treated Better by the Rebels Than
Are Spanish Prisoners-The Kansas
Regiment Homeward Bound.
Manila, Sept. MANY Spanish
prisoners are escaping from the Fill
pinos and bringing into the American
lines stories Of hard treatment. They
agree that the Filipinos are short of
rations and that large section Of
their troops is reduced to the use Of
home made black powder.
The natives are trying every scheme
to get food and munitions from Man
lila. Daily arrests are made for at
tempts to smuggle contraband Of war
through the American lines. In one
case casco with a cargo Of bamboo
poles was overhauled and the poles
were found full of race.
The insurgents have wholesome re-
spect for the British on account Of
several threats of British warships to
lombard their towns unless the rights
of British subjects are respected. Two
British vessels. the Lacson and the
Nero, were driven by stress of weather
into the harbor of Dagupan, the north
ern terminus of the Dagupan railway.
The crews were imprisoned, but on
their protesting that they were British
subjects the insurgent authorities per-
mitted one man. Edwards, to come to
Manila, promising to release the crew
of the Lacson If Edwards secured from
the British consul at Manila state
ment establishing the nationality Of
the crew. A similar concession was
made to the crew of the Nero.
Edwards says he saw several Ameri-
can prisoners, who were better fed
than the Spaniards by the Filipino SOL
diers Moreover they were not COM
PEELED to work. as the Spanish pris-
oners are.
A force of native police has begun
to patrol the city Of Manila, cooper
ating with the provost guard, whose
lack of knowledge Of the language and
the resorts of native criminals had
given any opportunities for burglary,
an industry which has been flourish"
ing of late. The new force includes
many members of the old force and
some insurgents who had grown tired
of fighting. 1t has already done good
work in running down native GRIM
inals.
The American secret service recently
found Filipino spy in Calamba. He
is supposed to have been the man who
stole four guns belonging to the Wash
ington regiment. He offered desper-
ate resistance to the soldier who was
sent to capture him and tried to run
away with two revolver shots in his
head. Finally he was brought down
by u rifle bullet in the hip. He died
after jumping from the stretcher and
trying to run.
Late yesterday afternoon the Kan
sas regiment embarked on big barge5
in the river and we're towed to the
United States transport Tartar, the
regimental flag flying and the men

THE number of rogues seems to
6e Increasing. Houses in the coun-
try have been broken into, various
articles purloined. and the depre-
dators have escaped arrest. Even
horses and wagons, in a few in
stances, have disappeared, and not
trace OF them can be found. Some
thing should be done to stimulate
I the detectives to greater vigilance.
There should be a reward OF $500
offered for the arrest and conviction
Of every thief. The sheriff should
apply the lash with greater vigor
and blood should be made to flow.
By this course, the lawmay be made

er ought to be hung. BY such
course she thinks the rascals would
be intimidated, and the people be
able to rest at nights without fear.
The depredatlons are becoming en-
tirely too numerous and stringent
measures should be adopted in every
hundred to lessen the number.
Vigilance committees should be
formed or the members OF organiza-
tons for the recovery of stolen prop
erty resolve to become more active.
So much roguery through the sum
mer, indicates a reign of terror
through the winter. To be fore
warned is to be fore armed.

CUBAN CENSUS PROCLAMATION
Only the Cuban Omcsholders Give IL

Only the Cuban Omcsholders Give IL

Havana, Sept. THE concensus Of
opinion In Havana regarding the cen
Bus proclamation can now be ascer-
tanned with q reasonable degree of &C.
curacy. When the proclamation was
first made known all elements were
apparently satisfied. Now the only
ones who appear to give It full ap-
proval are Cuban ofiiceholders. These
say that the proclamation is the work
of master head and ought to satisfy
everybody. Their outspoken approba-
ton, II there were no other reason,
would cause all other elements to sus-
pect the existence Of something wrong
somewhere.
The independents, as the members of
the party advocating Independence are
called, say that President Mckinley
should have made some declaration re-
garding absolute independence for
Cuba. Those who favor an American
protectorate consider that the procla-
nation does not offer adequate guar
antees to property and the investor.
The annexationists assert that the
proclamation tells literally nothing re-
specting President Mckinley's purpose,
and that no one is any wiser regarding
the future of the island than before.
They. however, believe that the admin
istration Is inclined to adopt the
theory that 1t would be impossible i'm
mediately to turn over the reins of
government to the Cubans without
precipltating civil war.
The malcontents-those who abuse
everything, no matter what, that Is
done by the present administration
object to the proclamation on general
principles.
AS to foreign capitalists, their opin-
ion is fairly represented by the presi-
dent Of an important railway, who
said: 1--WE do not care what happens.
The United States has assumed SPANS
responsibility in the island, and even
II a republic Is established It's officials
would Of necessity obey Washington
implicitly"

London, KY, Sept. A report is
current that Deputy Sheriff Lewis, of
Manchester, was killed Saturday in
Clay county. Several weeks ago, in
Manchester, Deputy Stubbletield was
shot by Mart Smith, who, escaping cap
ture, went to his home and sent word
to the county officials that he would
never attend court alive, therefore it
would be fatal for anybody to attempt
to take him. Saturday Lewis went to
serve papers on him and he was shot
dead as he approached Smiths house
If this report is true this makes the
third killing in Clay county last week.

The correspondent of The Times al

of its Johannesburg correspondent, Mr.
Moneypenny, that aggressive action is
imminent.
The Johannesburg correspondent oil
The Daily Mail, who paints gloomy
and pitiable picture Of the condition Of
things there, telegraphs:
1t is almost a case of absolute exodus
and panic. Business is paralyzed, the
prices Of food stuffs are rapidly rising,
half the houses are empty, and the
others are tenanted by people who do
not pay rent, the landlords being glad
enough to have them as occupants in
order to insure some sort of protection
to the property.
The tension has reached the snap
ping point. Bankruptcy and starva-
tion are staring people In the fact.
Another fortnight Of suspense will re-
suit in complete commercial col
lapse. The banks are thronged with
people anxious to withdraw their gold,
and the railways are besieged by those
who wish to got away.
The correspondent of The Daily
Telegraph at Pistermaritzburg, capt.
tai of Natal, says: Things have reach
ed such pass that war is considered
unavoidable, and the impression IL
that the crash will come within few
days. The situation at johannesburg
is most anxious. Thousands will risk
starvation In the event of war, when
the railways will be cut.

ers at the Stevens colliery. at Exeter,
near here. met In battle with coal and
iron policemen Saturday, one man be-
ing killed, two fatally wounded and a
dozen others more or less hurt. The
dead man Is Leopold Wolkoski, a
leader Of the strikers. who was shot
in the head while leading the mob
against gang Of men who were pre-
pairing to 90 to work. 1t is asserted
that the first shots were fired from the
ranks of the strikers. This was re-
turned with volley from the officers.
and the strikers fed, leaving their dead
and wounded behind. A score of ar
rests have been made.
All was quiet at the Stevens mine
yesterday. No strikers were In sight
and one solitary Waterman stood
guard over the company's property.
None of the strikers put in an appear
ance. Yesterday afternoon the strik-
ers held a secret meeting. A COM
munication was received from their
counsel advising the men to be patient
and to trust to the law for the con-
viction Of the men who shot and killed
their leader.
Benjamin James, organizer Of the
United Mine Workers, arrived In town
last night from Schuylkill county. In
an interview he said he deplored the
shedding of blood. Mr.. James said he
had urged the strikers to propose ar
bltration. but they refused. and Mr..
James declined to take any more part
in their deliberations. Some of the
strike leaders then posted forged no.
tees around the mine that the United
Mine Workers had sanctioned the
strike. Mr.. Jones tore the notices
down and offered reward for the ar
rest of the party that put them up.
Mr.. James thinks that had the strikers
been guided by his advice there would
have been no riot or blo0dshed.
