Denies He Sent In
cendiary Despatch.
WAS A FORGERY.
Thinks It Will Prejudice
Philippine Cause.

Washington, Jan. 2L-Agoncillo, the
the following statement today concern
ing published report that the govern
ment had intercepted q dispatch from
him to Aguinaldo, in which he advised
that the Philippines would have to fight
for their independence and that now
was the time to act:
''The statement is absolutely false
and is calculated to excite feeling and
animosity in this country and to pref
udice the Philippine cause. No such
telegram has ever been sent by me
and for that reason no such telegram
could have been intercepted The falsi-
ty of the statement is shown by the
fact that l have cabled my government
to continue the same friendship which
was born on the battlefield against
Spain. The Philippine people have no
wish and no purpose TO fight against
the Americans unless they are driven
to it. Their only desire is to strengthen
the bonds now existing"
Other members of The Filipino junta
Who were present when Agoncillo made
MS statement, cOHcuffGu IN what ne
said and emphasized the latter's dec
laration that all his advices had been
toward an avoidance of rupture. In
other quarters it was stated that Agon-
clio had sent dispatches from time to
time, three rather long ones going with
in the last few days. According to the
Filipinos, nothing that has been sent
advised fighting, but everything had
counselled continued friendship Under
such circumstances, the members of
the junta assert that any discriminating
dispatch which has come into the
hands of the government is forgery,
if it ascribes to Agoncillo any advice to
Aguinaldo to begin fighting.
Beyond denying this report, Agoncillo
said he had nothing TO make public as
to communi atoms to or from Aguinal-
do. He expressed the positive opinion
however, that the cabled report that
the Filipino congress mad authorized a
declaration of war was not correct, as
he says the Filipino people don't want
a conflict with the Americans, and will
do everything possible to avoid it.

SMALL Pox ON BOARD.
One Death Among Doukhobors During
Their Passage to Halifax.

ineH TaSsage 10 HaIlfdX
Halifax. N. s., Jan. 27.-The steamer
Lake Superior. with the second batch
of Doukhobors, 1000 in number, going
to the Canadian northwest, arrived to-
day from Batoum, % days.
The feature Of the advent of the Sec
ond contingent was the presence of
small pox on board one death from this
disease having occurred four days ago
at sea. The victim was a child of
eight years. The disease was virulent
in type and rapid in its effects. 1t de-
veloped Jan. 49, IA days after leaving
Batoum, and the little victim was bur
lea at sea four days later. The out
break created a mild panic on the
crowded ship but the Doukhobors' ell
der showed no fear, and assisted in ev-
cry way to isolate and control the cpl
demic.
The passengers are accompanied by
Count Serge Tolstoi, son of the elder
nobleman of that name. Altogether,
there were three deaths on the voyage.
The captain of the steamer reports no
new cases of small pox had developed.
The steamer is, however, held in strict
quarantine. The Doukhobors will not
begin to disembark until tomorrow
morning. There is an accommodation
station for 1900 people. Temporary
buildings for the remainder of the i'm
migrants are being run up tonight,
while the Doukhobors lay on board
ship. The Doukhobors and others on
the Lake Superior will be examined on
board and all baggage will be olsen
fected. They will probably be here a
month unless the epidemic spreads, and
will continue their journey by rail di-
rect from Halifax.

CHESTERFIELD ABSENT.

SITUATION is CRITICAL.
Otis Reports That He Can Hold Out Until
Reinforcements Arrive.


Washington, Jan. 27.-The situation
at Manila is regarded as critical, of
course, but the officials see no reason
why they cannot command it, for a
time, at least Gen. Otis reported yes
terday that he could hold out beyond a
doubt, until his reinforcements arrived,
and added that, as the news had
reached Manila, there was every pros
pect that the peace treaty will soon
be ratified by the United States Sen
ate The effect upon the native ele-
ment had been salutary.
Concerning the treatment to be ac-
corded Agoncillo, the state department
officials are mute.
1t is known that he has been under
surveillance ever since his arrival in
this city, and that it was learned that
he was in correspondence over the ca
bles with his chief, generally through
some one of the Philippine juntas in
Hong Kong, London or Paris, but
whether any telegram has been actu-
ally intercepted, cannot be learned.
There was good ground for the belief
that Agoncilla was receiving advice
from certain persons inimical to the
policy the president has adopted for
the treatment of the Philippine ques-
ton at this stage. This has been toll
Grated reluctantly by the administra-
ton rather than to make an open is
sue of what is still a case possible Of
adjustment.
The publication two days ago of what
proved to be very good abstract with
exact quotations of the letter left the
day preceding the publication by Agon-
cillos secretary at the state depart
ment. likewise was resented as a no.
table breach Of official decorum The
first inclination of the officials after
this publication was to get rid of Agon-
clio. but the officials were loathe to
take any action in advance of the Sen
ate passing upon the pending peace
treaty, especially as the action might
involve passing upon certain legal and
diplomatic points involved, as to which
it is desired not to establish precedents
at this time.

TEAMlNG FRAUD CASES.
One Taken From Jury and New Trial
Ordered.

OTQeTeu.
Boston, Jan. N.-On the assembling
of the court in the city teannng fraud
cases this morning, Judge Bond ordered
the case of J. r. Mulvey and Thomas
j. Scollaps to be taken from the jury
and new trial to be held
This action was taken on account Of
headline placed over q story of the
trial in one of the local evening papers,
yesterday. which contained the words,
Guilt Is evident" Mulvey and Scol-
lanS are charged with defrauding the
city by means OF fraudulent charges for
teaming.
John B, Moran, counsel for the de-
fence, called the attention of the court
to the objectionable words, and claim
ing that they were prejudicial to his
clients, asked that the case be taken
from the jury. Judge Bond asked If any
of the jurors had seen the paper. One OF
them, No. u, said his attention had been
called to dt. Thereupon Judge Bond took
the case. from the jury and ordered a
new trial.
During the afternoon the Boston
Herald corporation apperaed in
court upon petition prepared
by assistant district attorney Nc
Laughlin, at the order of the
Judge. The petition orders the corpor-
alton to appear and show cause why
1t should not be declared in contempt
of court. The point at issue came from
the Herald's use of the words guilt is
evident" in the headlines Of it's report
of the Mulvey case on Thursday.
Melvin o. Adams, counsel for the cor
poration, set forth that nothing was
intended to obstruct the course OF JUS
tice, He showed wherein one of the
defendants at trial had been shown to
be responsible for certain things
which lead up to the trial, and of refer
ence by the court to said instances as
showing that there was presumably
evidence of some ones oriminality and
that the heading only intended to
bring out these points in the testimony.
Judge Bond then decided to hear evil
dence, and the reporter who wrote the
story Of the trial and assistant editor
who built the head geographically
speaking testified. The latter ex-
planned how the head line simply was
intended to emphasize certain things
in the evidence with no object of an
ticipating a verdict Mr.. Adams fur
ther showed wherein the paper had i'm
partially covered the trial, and then
Judge Bond announced that he would
give a decision on next Monday.

Rico, Cuba, the Philippines, the Hawa-
iian Islands and the Ladrones, and
provided further that said increase, both
officers and men, shall be mustered out
OF service within two years, or sooner,
II the exigencies permit" This amend
ment was lost,
Mr.. Hull explained that the reduction
ne would propose to the bill would come
from the enlisted force by reduction
OF the size of the companies. If the
president should deem it proper to
swell the army to the maximum 1OO,-
600. the size of the companies would be
increased. Very few additional officers
would be required.
Mr.. Walker (rep.) of Massachusetts
expressed the opinion that an army of
$4,000 men was necessary. We dare
not decline, he said, to trust the presi-
Gent as to the necessity for the other
$4,000 This bill only provides for 800
additional officers. If we had had this
proposed organization before the recent
war. we would have saved millions of
dollars and hundreds of lives.
Mr.. Johnson (rep) of Indiana, spoke
ana repeated something of the sensa-
ton he created on Wednesday. When
this bill was brought into the House,
said he, the proposition to quadruple
the size of the standing army was so
INDUSTRIOUS that there was general dis
sent on the republican side. The chair
man OF the committee had been as
lacking in frankness as the administra-
tlon had been with reference to it's Phil
lppine policy. Now it was proposed to
take this monstrosity and cut it down
- as to prcide in general for an army
OF $4,000 with sort of sliding scale up
to 100000, upon which the president
could exercise his well-known powers
of elasticity"
Mr.. johnson, replying to Mr.. Can
non, said that the original wrong was
committed when the president sent his
commissioners to Paris to demand the
cession of the Philippines. The only
danger of the bill was that the mis-
guided policy of the president would
provoke these people to a just resent
ment. At o'clock the House recessed
until in the evening, the session to
be devoted to private pension legisla
ton.

DIDN'T TAKE 1T.
Neighbors smsIIed carboIic Aold and
Thought Suicide Had Occurred.

tnougnt SUICIDE Had Occurred.
A man, evidently laboring under CON
siderable excitement, came to the Wal
do street station house about o'clock
last night and told Lieut.. Johnson
that he thought a woman had attempt
ed suicide by drinking carbolic acid at
Orange street.
The ambulance was sent out with Of
ficer Hurley and Driver Wilson, but
on arriving at the house they found
their services were not required. The
woman who, it was thought, might
have taken the fatal draft, was Mrs.
James L. Getchell. There was a strong
odor Of earbolic acid about the room.
and a bottle of the acid diluted to con-
siderable extent was found
The woman denied, however, that she
had drunk any Of the stuff, and subse-
quent events proved the truth of her
statement. DR.. r. w. Swan was called.
but was unable to locate any symptom
of carbolic acid poisoning.
The story cleaned was that the WON
an has been in i'll health and despond-
ent. She and her husband had words
and her nervous system gave way, her
delusion being that he was not coming
home. Some Of the people In the house
thought she might have taken dose
of the mixture, and it was considered
best to notify the police.

RIGHT TO STAY.
Commissioner Rice Decides in Favor of
Jue Fun at Springfield.

Springfield, jan 27.--Jue Fun was
tried before United States Commission
er Rice today. charged with being in
this country contrary to the Chinese
exclusion act. His counsel presented
evidence to show that Fun has a pass
port from Cuba to this country as a
student, and that he had been a stu
dent since his arrival four years ago,
although he has been obliged to work
part of the time Commissioner Rice
decided that Fun is entitled to remain
in this country. In the case Of Ye
Sing Kong, who was tried Thursday.
Commissioner Rice announced that no
papers were put in evidence showing
that Kong had legal right to enter
the country as merchant, and he is
therefore subject to deportation. His
counsel appealed, and District Attorney
Casey objected to the appeal claiming
that the prisoner should be committed
to jail and then habeas corpus proceed
ings begun. This question win be
