that the larger portion of this was amass-

1890 the progress Of the negro in property

These facts induce Commissioner Glenn

there should be a radical change. Al its

NON-UNlON MEN CLUBBED.

Resumption Of Street Car Tr.mc In
Cleveland Marked by Violence.
CLEVELAND, Ohio. June 26-Only
one outbreak of violence attended the
resumption of traffic on all the lines
of the Big Consolidated street railway
yesterday. There was objection in
some parts OF the city to the retention
of the non-union men who were kept
by the company. A party of twenty
five men assembled near the Brooklyn
bridge. just south of the city, and
whenever a car came along with a
non-union crew the passengers were
asked to discmbark and wait for q car
manned by 4 union crew. In most
cases the passengers did as requested.
Finally a noE-union conductor under
took to argue with the crowd, and he
was promptly struck over the head
with a club, and he and the motorman
driven away. The mob refused to
permit the car to move until q union
crew came along and pushed it to the
barn.

PREPARING FOR AN ATTACK.

Agulnaldo Il Massing Hts Forces In
Front OF San Fernando
MANILA, June 24-Aguinaldo does
not seem to be satisfied with the at
tempt of the insurgents to retake San
Fernando and he has taken command
of General Luna's army himself. He
has massed the largest force yet mo-
bilized, bringing 1000 men from the
Antipolo region. He is exceedingly
troublesome Last nj .sht his men
wounded two members of the Seven
teenth United States infantry. Gen
eral MacArthur's men are constantly
on the alert to repel any attacks by
the rebels. sleeping upon their arms.
The general sincerely hopes that the
Filipinos will give him another chance
for battle, for the soldiers really en-
joy an opportunity to fight them when
they can do SO without wading
through swamps to catch them
Railway trains between Manila and
San Fernando have been stopped for
several days while permanent repairs
were making to the bridges along the
route, but to-day traffic was resumed.
The transport Centennial. which has
arrived here, had an exciting expert
ence while rounding Point Engano on
the northern coast of Luzon, on her
way to this port. She struck rock
Wednesday, and remained fast for
several hours. during which time she
was surrounded by swarms of natives
in canoes. who became mcnacing. Capt.
Eagle, who commanded the transport,
was compelled to throw overheard 100
tons Of supplies in order to tighten
the ship sufficiently to get her afioat.
Before this was effected the Filipinos
had towed the cases ashore and were
fighting over the spoils.
The cruiser Baltimore recently
grounded at the same spot, but the
natives feared to approach her.
Among the troops with Macarthur
is the Twentieth Kansas regiment.
Most Of the others are regulars.
