KENTUcKY's VOTE.
The POstpOnement Of the Official Canvass
Until Monday Has for a Time Cooled
the Political Atmosphere.

Frankfort, KY, Dec. 2.--The post
ponement of the official canvass of
kentuckys gubernatorial vote until
Monday has, for the time being at least,
cooled the surcharged political atmos-
phere in a very perceptible manner.
There is deeply settled belief among
both democrats and republicans that
the commissioners will not turn the
matter over to the legislature, but will
surely issue a certificate to either
Goebel or Taylor. If it is given to the
former, it is possible that the matter
may end there, as many of the conser-
vative republicans are of the opinion
that in view Of the strong democratic
majority in the Legislature it will
practically be useless for the republic
ans to look for anything in that quar-
ter. II the certificate goes to Taylor
1t is certainly probable that the matter
will be taken to the Legislature, where
Goebel may finally win out.

REBELS SURRENDER.
Filipino Garrison at Bayombong
Turned Over to Lieut.. Monroe.
OTIS ADVICES TO war DEPARTMENT


Washington, Dec. 9.-Gen. Otis ad.
vices to the war department yesterday
show that the advance into the inte-
rior is being vigorously pushed and the
American troops continue to drive back
and disperse the scattered bands en-
countered. Gen. Hughes reports from
central Panay that Iloilo province, one.
third of the island, is cleared Of in
surgents. BY forced marches with
two battalions from Labuano, by way
of Calinog, he obliged the enemy to
engage at Passi and drove him with
loss to the mountains in detached
bodies, capturing ten field pieces.
Dispatches from Gen. Lawton indi-
cate Bayombong was captured on the
2sth. Gen. MacArthur's troops have
had several minor engagements, cap
turing men and rifles The conditions
at Zamboanga are satisfactory. Ma
tives from adjoining towns are visiting
in the city and native military bands
are serenading troops.
A dispatch was received from Ma
Mia this morning stating that Gen.
Conon surrendered 800 officers ana
men with rifles, several Americans
and 70 Spanish prisoners, and the gar
rison at Bayombong, province of Neuva
Vizcaya, to Lieut.. Monroe, with 80 men
of the Fourth cavalry.
MUCH INTEREST FELT AT WASHINGTON.
Washington, Dec. 2. considerable
interest is felt here in the news that
the insurgents at Bayombong have sur
rendered particularly as the number is
said to exceed that captured by the
United States troops at any one time.
Bayombong is the city to which Agui-
naldo at one time contemplated re-
treating for the purpose of locating
the rebel capital, after he was forced
to flee from Tarlac, but the American
troops pressed him SO hard that he was
unable to carry out his intention.
Gen. Otis dispatch Of yesterday repeat
ing information received from Gen.
Lawton said it indicated that Bayom-
bong had been captured on the 2Sth Of
November, and it is thought this is the
same place referred to in the Manila
dispatch.
