PHILIPPINE EVENTS.
The Policy of Cancellation with
War Somewhat Discouraging.
MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENTS BETRAYED
The Mayors of san Pedro Macati and Bal
iuag Caught Aiding the Insurgents-Ma-
Mia Authorities Expecting Trouble
Morang Burned by Americans.

Manila Aug. 20, via Hong Hong,
Aug. rs. Recent events have proved
somewhat discouraging to officials
who are trying to accompany war
with policy Of Cancellation. Two
new municipal governments have col
lapsed through the treachery of the
mayors. The mayor of San Pedro Ma
cati, who was elected by the people
under the direction of Prof. Dean
Worcester, of the United States adj
visory commission for the Philippines,
was brought to Manila and lodged in
Jail. The United States officers at San
Pedro Macati found that he was using
his office as a recruiting station for the
Philippine army. Four disguised in
surgent officers were helping him.
The mayor of Baliuag was also ar
rested and confined in the same prison.
The Americans caught him passing be-
tween the line of the two armies with
discriminating documents, which the
authorities secured. Another promi-
nent native mayor is under surveil-
lance. When the result of the election
at linus, which Gen. Lawton and
nounced, the Americans inquired as to
the whereabouts of the peoples choice
and We're informed that he was in
prison at Bilibid, where the authorities
had placed him on suspicion of being a
revolutionist. He was released aud in
stalled as mayor.
Such events and conditions tend to
give color to the assertions of foreign
residents acquainted with the native
character, who insist that a great ma
jority of the natives sympathize with
the insurgents and elect officials whom
they know to be revolutionists.
For two weeks Manila has been po-
Iced at night with unusual vigilance.
Apparently the authorities are expect
ing trouble. The trend of affairs tends
to make the policy of leniency unpop-
ular among the Americans. When
they abandoned Morong they burned
the whole town.
Col. Smith, OF the Twelfth infantry,
who is in command OF Angeles, is sltep-
teal regarding Filipino friendliness.
Instead of allowing the natives to re-
turn to the town as heretofore, he has
ordered his troops to shoot all men try
ing TO pass the lines and to turn back
the women and children. He recently
gave the amigos in the town an oppor-
tunity to prove their professed friend
ship, putting them to work at digging
trenches and cleaning streets, but this
only displeased them. The foremost
citizen of Angeles, a lawyer who had
welcomed the Americans with great
show of cordially, was found com
municating with the insurgents. The
Americans promptly marched him off
20 San Fernando to stand trial.

RESCUE OF GOLD SEEKERS.


Washington, Aug. 25.-Capt. Shoe
maker of the revenue cutter service,
yesterday received report from Lieut..
ID. II. Jarvis, the commander of the
revenue cutter Bear, containing an ac-
count of the rescue of the gold seekers
who rushed TO the Kotzebue gold coun-
try, Alaska, in the summer of 1898.
Lieut.. Jarvis was taking the Bear
north to Cape Barrow ON her regular
trip. At Cape Prince of Wales he
learned of the awful restitution which
had overtaken the gold seekers at
Kotzebue sound. On arrival there he
found a terrible condition of affairs.
Men had died of starvation, scurvy and
by drowning and he obtained a list of
AS deaths, But the list is by no means
complete. Over 1000 of the gold seek
ers had wintered there. The Bear
after relieving as much of the distress
as possible and leaving stores, lime
Juice, etc, for the survivors took SO of
the survivors to st. Michaels, where
they were turned over to the military
authorities.

His hand trembled so that it was with
the utmost difficulty he managed to Sc
cure the three weapons noiselessly. but
fortune favored him. With bated
breath he stole out of the hut with them

edge of the clearing he was met by

a startling interruption.
While he was speaking he had unvit-

II was his last shot for The second
mate, who had stolen behind the hut,
suddenly sprang at him with heavy
club and stretched him senseless on
the ground.
When Turner found himself alone
and looking into the muzzles of so
many weapons, he dropped his own,
held his hands UP above his head and
said quietly:
Don't shoot, pards! gives inl"
"Tie him up" ordered TarboN.
1t was soon done, and while Tom was
assuring his sweetheart that he had
not been injured one Of the other men
started a fire. Obed Rider was evidently
MORALLY wounded. and all that could
he done was 10 make him as comfort
able as possible. He was gently lifted
and carried inside the hut, while Bow
ers was secured as soon as he recov-
cred consciousness.
The mate had been shot through the
lungs. and after examining his wound
Taylor shook his head and said b)untly:
II might as well tell you the truth.
You are a dying man"
Rider did not dispute him. Perhaps
with the approach Of death some warn
ing came to him, for he said in feeble
tones:
"Die! Yes, feel that I've made my
last voyage. Call Scott here"
Tom came at once, aud as he llnelt by
the dying man and gazed into his pale
face, upon which the shadow of death
was already beginning to settle, he for
got his long cherished vengeance and
said softly;

with the stimulant which they had pro-

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, July Especial
Correspondence of The Bee.)-Nine-tenths
Of the people of Porto Rico are mlserably
poor. Their rude huts. scattered over the
country, are meaner than the mud novels Of
Egypt, and the rooms which form their tene-
ments in the towns are more thickly crowded
than the slums of the cities of China. All
the property of this island is owned by a few
families. Out of the 800, 900 of Uncle Sam
new subjects zoo, 900 live from hand to mouth
and / venture that at least 500, 900 during a
part of the year go to bed hungry.
Let us first look at the poor Of the cities.
Wa talk about hard times, but we really do
not know what poverty is. If our fashion
able girls who go about Summing should
take a trip to Porto Rico they could find an
ample field for their sympathy and their
curiosity. Take, for instance, San Juan. We
have here an average population of 400 to
the acre, and l venture there are more than
a Thousand souls sleeping tonight on this
acre where / am writing. San Juan is sur
rounded by walls, and by the count of our
health officers there are more than 10000
people inside the walls. A large part Of the
$4,000 citizens are housed outside. The
spSce inside comprises eighty acres, but con-
siderably more than half of this is taken up
