JOINT REUNION OFF
Army of the Tennessee Declines the
 Proposition

Chicago, October 1.-The proposed joint reunion of the armies of the Tennessee, Cumberland and Potomac at Chattanooga, Tenn, in October, 1900, is off, so far as the Army of the Tennessee is concerned. The committee appointed at the meeting of the society yesterday to select the place for re- union next year decided that it was unad- visable to adopt the idea, and selected De- troit, Mich, as the place of meeting for 1900. The distance to the southern city is so great that it was believed that many of the members would find it impossible to attend the reunion.
 The committee on officers reported the election of the following officers for the ensuing year, and the report was unani- mously adopted:
 President-Gen. Greenville M. Dodge, re- elected.
 vfce-president-Capt s. M. Chamberlain, Detroit
 Corresponding secretary-Gen. A. Hicken- loper, Cincinnati
 Recording secretary-Col. c. Cadel, Cin- cinnat.
 Treasurer-A M. Vandyke, Cincinnati.

San Francisco De Malabon, October H. town, marched through country so muddy that the mules all collapsed. He occupied the town without fighting, the insurgents retreating under cover of the creek beds.
 Later, with reconnoitering forces out ward, General Schwan came upon trenches where hidden insurgents poured several vol ieys upon the general and his staff. The rebels resisted stubbornly.
 The reconnoiterers, consisting of Captain Leary's battalion of the Thirteenth regi- ment and two guns of Riley's battery, drove the insurgentes two miles, fighting all the way. They found a field piece and sev- er;n sick an dwounded Fipinos flying red flags and captured twenty-five insurgents, including three officers Many dead Flip dnos were strewn along the fields. The Americans loss was one officer and seven men wounded
 The Thirteenth infantry lost two officers, Captain Marion B.. Saffold and Captain Woodbridge Leary, both battalion command CTS.
 General Schwan's column started at day. light yesterday along a fearful road on the ieft bank of the river, fankers being thrown far out, and Major Budd's bat tahon on the right flank, rendering the ire rom the insurgent trenches ineffective Major Budd returned to Santa Cruz before dark.
 ]. The natives seem to be generally support CTS of the insurrection, but few have arms. There was much firing at American sol- diers from the native huts. General Schwan spent the night at Malabon.

DAY AN ExPANsIoNIST
Believes the Payment of $2O,OOO, 900
 for Philippines Unsuitable

Columbus, O., October 11.-Judge William R. Day. who was president of the Amerl- can peace commission, today contributed to the republican campaign letter addressed to former Congressman D. K. Watson, concerning the deliberations of the com msisoners at Paris. Judge Day sets forth the reasons which in hls mind justified the payment of $90. 900 900 for the Philippines, declaring that it was never contended by the American commissioners that the United States had a right to the islands as a matter of conquest. The letter concludes as follows:
 '"The advanced poistion which the United States has. always maintained in its inter- nal rela tions, it's opposition to anything like harsh or severe treatment of a fallen foe, as well as other cogent reasons, would seem to justify the payment of the twenty millions as an act dictated from high sense of national honor, as well as sound policy"

LANGFORD ON TRIAL
Charged With Robbery, But Denies His
 Guilt.

Zebulon, Ga., October I.-Tom Langford, who was acquitted one year ago of the murder of Sheriff Gwynn, was placed on trial here today for the robbery of old man Tom Harris in October, 1895, and is being ably represented by Colonel Dominick, who is assisted by Colonel Pope and Colonel Rogers. Solicitor Bloodworth has charge of the prosecution, assisted by Judge Du- pree.
 The morning was spent in examining witnesses, and the afternoon was taken up in speaking.
 Old man Harris and wife both swore poe ftively that they recognized Taylor Delk and Tom Langford. Several witnesses wore put up to impeach their testimony. Mrs. Langford, the mother of Tom, swore that he was at home on the night the robbery was committed, and that he could not have left the house without awakening her, as they both were sleeping in the same room. Tom Langford then made his statement, corroborating his mothers testimony. A verdict is expected some time tonight.

OTIS CONFIRMATION
Disapproves of Officers Families Com
 ing to Manila

Washington, October 11-A cablegram from General Otis to the war department. received late this afternoon confirms the press dispatches regarding Col Schwan's movements on San Francisco De Malabon. General Otis says: "Schwan succeeded yes terday in driving insurgents south, with slight loss, from San De Malabon. He re- ports their force disintegrating and retir- ing on diverging roads, which are impassa- Die Tor artillery or wagons. No intention Of occupying this country permanently or temporarily; transportation will return by way of Rosario and column will move in di- rection of Das Marinas, probably retiring on Imus Country of no strategic impor- tance."
 General Otis disapproves of officers fam files Joining them at Manila. Regarding this question he today cabled the depart ment as follows: Population at Manila much congested. Provisions for officers families cannot be made. Those already arrived, together with families of enlisted men, have caused much perplexity.~ Would not permit my own family to come under existing circumstances; nearly all of the officers and men are absent from Manila on duty; families should await more peace- full conditions"
 Another message announces the arrival at Manila of the transport Victoria with 403 horses. Ten died en route and several found to be afflicted with glanders were shot. The Garorne sailed for Manila on the Eth instant and the Athenian on the 9th, the transports both going to Seattle.

KRUGER TO THE TRIBUNE.
Boer President Sends Cablegram to
 Chicago Paper.

Chicago, October 1.-The following cable gram was received tonight by the Chicago Tribune from President Kruger, of the Transvaal republic. The cablegram was sent in answer to message from the Tribune requesting statement of the po- sition of the Transvaal crisis:
 Pretoria, October Il, 1S99 "To the Tribune, Chicago, Ill.,:
 We wish to thank our many American friends for sympathy In the present crisis of our republic. Last Monday we gave England forty-eight hours notice within which to give assurance that the dispute will be settled by arbitration or other peaceful means. The notice expires at 5 o'clock today. This is the fitting end of the British policy of force and fraud which has marked all South Africa with the blood of Afrkanders. We must now make South Africa free or the white mans grave. The republics forces include all nationali- ties, among them strong American corps, showing it is not a case of Boer against Uitlander, but all nations against the English. We have full faith in free- dom and republicanism and in the right eousness which guides the destnies of na- tions.

COMMITTED SUICIDE.
Shot His Partner and Then Jumped Into
 Mississippi River.

Hickman, Ky, October 11.-At 9:SO a. m. in a dispute over business affairs Fred Hopen shot and dangerously wounded his partner, T. l.. Eversol, after which he committed suicide by jumping into the Mississippi river. Bad feeling had existed for some time between the men, who were the proprietors of the fiouring mills at this place.
 Yesterday Hopen stepped to Eversofs desk and accused him of failing to ac- count for certain money belonging to the firm. This Eversol denied, when Hopen drew his pistol and shot Eversol in the lower part of the bowels. In the desperate scuffie for the pistol that followed, the desk, chair and sotves were overturned.
 Eversol finally secured the weapon and Hopen ran from the mill toward the river. As he ran Eversol fired one shot at him and then sank exhausted. Hopen was seen to jump in the water and sink before aid could reach him. His body has not yet been recovered. Both parties are promi- nent in business circles, Hopen being a partner in the Hickman Wagon company, and a member of the city council.

TEXAS RANGERS
 PLACED IN CHARGE The State Having Trouble With Labor
 and Capital. lAWLESS ELEMENT RULING
Blew Up NesrO'S House as Result of Race
 Prejudice.
GOVERNOR SAVERS OFFERS REWARD
The Chief Executive Determined to Cap ture the Miscreants- San Antonio Street Car Employees are Out
 On Strike

Austin, October u.-Texas is at present having no little trouble with labor organi- zations and capital. So serious is the situ- ation that state officials had to take cog nizance of the situation and place the Texas Rangers in charge.
 This Is especially the case at Orange, Tex, where the lawless element have for the past ten days burned several large lumber mills and laid waste thousands or dollars worth of property. The Rangers have been sent to that place to do poilce duty, and will be kept there for an 1n- definite period. Governor Savers today offered large reward for the apprehen- sion of a number of dynamiters who recent ly blew up the house of a negro in Chero- kee county as the result of race pre1uolce.
 The San Antonio street car employees have struck for nine hours per day with larger pay, and are backed by the political factions of that city.
 In addition to these troubles the biggest labor upheaval known in Texas is the strike which has been inaugurated against the Cameron flour mill industry in Texas. This corporation operates a number of large mills in the state, and the labor unions have acted with such energy as to force them to close down.
 The corporation has interests in other states, especially in Arkansas, and from present indications the effects of the strike will be felt outside the state, as the labor unions everywhere are demanding boy colt of the mills product. The strike will probably extend to other branches of la- bor organizations of the state.
