AGUINALDo WAS TERRIFIED.
His Efforts to Suppress Mutiny In
His Army.

New York. May "a dispatch to the
Journal and Advertiser from Manila.
says:
only the entreaties of Aguinaldo
averted last Tuesday a civil war be-
tween the forces of his two rival gem
erals, Luna and Mascardo. They were
actually drawn up in battle array.
This and a positive confirmation of
the news that Luna has been danger
ously wounded in the shoulder in the
battle of San Tomas are the most i'm
portant items of intelligence brought
today by the army gunboats Laguna de
Bay and CovadOnga. which returned
from a brisk expedition up the San
Fernando river.
1t was Immediately before the battle
of San Tomas that the insurgents SO
nearly arrived at the point of begin
ming to eXterminate one another. Gen
eral Luna, when he saw that an ems
gagement with the American troops
was inevitable. sent back an aide post

Mascardo was, demanding reinforce
ments. MascardO's reply was that he
would take orders from no one but
Aguinaldo.
This defiance so Infatuated Luna that.
in spite of the impending conflict with
the common enemy. he took loo of mis-
soldiery and made a forced march TO

Mascardo was nothing 10th to fight it
out and ordered his command into line

fiance were heard on both sides. Out

camp was all confused.
Aguinaldo, terrified by the situation,
ordered his chief of staff, Colonel Ar
guelezas, to make peace at all hazards
The soldiers loaded their pieces and
were waiting orders to begin the on
slaught when Arguelezas gallOped be-
tween the lines, frantically waving
flag of truce. There was an angry con-
ference between him and the rival gen.

plunge the Philippine forces into civil
strife at a time when they We're al

His entreaties prevailed for the time
being. Luna soon returned to the front
after the commanding general had
promised him reinfOrcements. and or

GRAIN CROP STATISTICS.
Condition In Europe Shown to Be
Favorable.

Washington, May 9.-The grain crop
statistics which supplement the recent
winter grain report of agriculture show
that the winter grain conditions almost
everywhere in Europe are favorable.
Russian reports complain of deficient
grain, but the general condition is rep
resented as satisfactory.
Little if any harm seems to have been
done by the severe cold weather in
March in the western country and re-
ports of spring cultivation and seeding
are favorable. Considerably less than
a normal crop, approximately three
fourths. is indicated for India as a
whole, Bengal alone reporting uneoui-
vocally good out-turns. Roumania re-
ports 1898 wheat 5S,456 904 bushels; rye,
1858, 6SS: maize. SIS, 900. 900. This is a
large gain over 1897. Austria 1898 wheat
crop is reported at 46. 400. 900 bushels
ItaIy's wheat crop for 1898 is officially
put at 1891, 900 bushels. In Argentina
the area under wheat for 1889 from
which the crop was recently gathered,
has been officially estimated at $780,
319 acres and the aggregate product is
unofficially estimated at 100000 BUSH
els.
The United States minister at
Buenos Ayres reports that the quality
of the wheat crop is fairly good and
the yield extraordinary. The maize
crop now gathering is. like wheat, a
good one. In the United Kingdom, the
increase in the wheat crop over that
for 1897 was 1s.osS,s21 bushels. a per-
centage of increase nearly three times
as great in production as in area

court of Foresters of America met
here today. The morning was occupied
with reports of officers, and the APP

fact that two fodges have surrendered
their charters during the year. The in

has been over 500. The report of the
treasurer shows a total of nearly ST.

ell Will meet as at present, once year.

question in his mind that she foundered
in one of the storms that prevailed in

Those who sailed from here on the

There were four others whose names

is said to have been a Nebraska man.
The exception was named Stevens, and
in connection with him an interesting
story is told. He was a prisoner in the
state penitentiary at Walla Walla,
where Addleman and Butterfield were
turkeys. He claimed to know a spot
in Alaska where gold could be found.
On this representation he succeeded in
getting friends to secure his pardon and
organizing the expedition. 1t developed
from letters received after the expedi-

resented things. Owing to the trouble
he caused he was put ashore on an
island this side of Kotzebue Sound,
with a supply of provisions and his per-
sonal effects.
