That Como from Source at Eninity
With tho Administration
NEW YORK. Sept. 22.-A special to
the Herald from Washington says:
Word reaches the war department
showing that General otls has sought
to Initiate the policy employed in Cuba
OF buying Filipino arms, and that MS
efforts have been unBuCceBStul.
The natives are given to understand
that upon the surrender OF a gun the
military authorities would pay the per-
son surrendering 1t $40 and guarantee
him immunity from arrest for previous
armed opposition to the United States
and protection for the future. Notwltn-
standing this tempting offer not one
bona fide surrender Of a gun Is reported.
One native, It u said, appeared with
gun In hand, and the military officers
began congratulatlng themselves that
the end was in sight and that when the
rest OF Aguinaldo'B troops learned of
the good treatment given this man they
would follow his example. requlsl-
tion was made on the treasury for $40,
but before the money was received In
VestigntiOn uncovered the fact that the
native was acting as an agent TOT an
American soldier, who had captured the
gun IN action and wanted TO dispose OF

authorities.
IN view OF the dIsinclination Of the
natives to sell their guns It ls evident
that the revolution Is not so much con-
fined to the upper ranks as has been
believed. Were the soldiers not IN
sympathy with their superior othcers lt
IS said by many officers that they would
certainly have surrendered In atlaleRst
small numbers, as they have ample op-
portunIty to reach the American lines
without detection.

When the cabinet went into session
no new developments In the TrnHsvaal
situation had transpired. The dis
patches from the Cape continued Of a
warllke tone and voiced the lndlgna-
tIon Of the British contingent against
the Orange Free State and Afrikander
attitudes.
The impression IS current here,
though not based on anything tangible,
that the cabinet would only take steps
tending to protect negotiations, while
secretly It would prepare the details of

To Chicago-Presldent Mckinley Will
Meet Mexlco's Executive and Invite
Him to Washington.
WASHINGTON, Sept. PIN connec-
tlon with President DIaz's visit to Chi
cago it is expected that President Nc
KInley win meet the Mexican President
at Chicago and invite him to come to
washington as his guest and the guest
OF the nation. Tentative plans along
these lines have been considered, and
more definite arrangements will be
made when the official announcement
is received as to President DIaz's in
tentlons. Up to to-day, the Mexican
ambassador had not received the off,
cial notification of the Presidents plans,
but II Is expected that 1t will be at hand
within the next day or two. The am-
bassador is now on his way here from
Manchester-by-th the-Sen. and on the re-
celpt of the notification he will proceed
in person to Chicago to deliver It to the
proper authorities there.
President Dlaz's route northward Is
expected to go through San Antonio
and st. Louis. AT the latter point he
may make a stop, as the Lattn.Amerl-
can club OF that city have telegraphed
to the Mexican embassy here an urgent
request that the President honor st.
Louis with visit.
In recognition Of the presence OF a
foreign ruler within the country 1t Is
probable that n representative Of Pres
ident Mckinley viii meet the Menican
president ut the United States border
and accompany him throughout his
stay IN this country. An army officer
Of high rank is,likely to be selected for
this service.
No less than fourteen invitations from
that many cities have been extended to
President Dlnz to be their guest during
his stay in the United States. But the
understanding among officials is that
he will not be able to accept many OF
these.
