Speaking of the present war between
England and the Beers, Mr. Carnegie
said:
The. war against the Beers is most
infamous and unjust and it is brought
about by England's lust for domain
ana is on a par with our attack on the
poor Filipinos. These two attacks are
disgrace to both branches of our
race. ."r ,u..r..
'4The people in the Transvaal and
the Orange Free State have a right
to rule themselves. One war is an at
tack on an existing and the other on
an embryonic republic.
1t is worse for us to attack the Fill
lpinos than for England to attack the
Beers. for we fall from a greater
height. as we believed in government
by consent of the governed.
THE best men in England have
spoken against the war in the Trans

served by 1t. They are small clique

washington, Nov 9.-The war de-
partment located Aguinaldo to-day as
on his way to Boambang, about rs
miles northeast of Tarlac. The recent
calculations have been that the insur-
gent leader was at the town Of Bay
ambang. not far from Tarlac, in which
case the several forces under General
macarthur, Generals Lawton, Young
ana wheaton would have had him
PRACTICALLY surrounded. There lis some
DAY this was cleared up by definite
int0rmation fixing Boambang instead
q Bayambang as the place OF Asuinal-
dos refuge.
A dispatch from General otis men
Toned Boambang and at the, same time
reilaDle information came through 9TH
er channels that Lieutenant Gilmore
and other American prisoners were at
Boambang, in the mountains far to the
northeast of Tarlac.. It is expected the
insurgent capital will be shifted to Bo-
ambang, and the efforts of the Amer
lean military forces win be directed To-
ward that point. A%.3 $3.50
1t is in the mountainous country to
the north and apparently out Of the
fertile and populous regions where
Aguinaldo thus far has conducted his
operations. 1t Is said to be accessible
from the south by way of one route
only, along a river which Is a branch
Of the Rio Grande. This leaves the
rebel leader little or no opportunity Of
communicating with the coast or get

BATH SCHOONER ABANDONED.
Crew of the Aloha Brought Into
Savannah Yesterday.

Savannah, Ga, January 1.-THE
steamship City of Macon, from Boston,
brought into port this evening Capt.
Kennerley and the crew, nine men all
told, of the schooner Aloha, of Bath, Me-.
abandoned Saturday night, 25 miles
southeast of Georgetown light in a sink
ing condition. The Aloha left Fernandina
week ago with a cargo of phosphate
rock bound for New York. She encoun
tered bad weather the first day out AMI
soon sprung aleak. The pumps were
sci to work and as long as there was
fuel for the boiler of the hoisting engine
to drive the pumps the vessel was kept
free OF water. When the fuel was ex.
hausted the deck work was chopped up,
but that was soon gone and the water
gained rapidly. The wind was blowing
a gale from the southeast and 1t was with
difficulty the vessel was Kept afioat.
Friday the wind lulled and the leaks
stoppsd. The vessel was then of Charles
ton. As the weather cleared, the captain
decided he would not put into port
Saturday the wind changed to south
west and ireshened up and the vessel
again began to leak The crew was
pretty nearly exhausted and with no
fuel for the donkey engine, provisions
wet and the water gaining all the time.
the captain decided to abandon the yes
sci. The boats were got ready, the ,anks
were filled with water. provisions were
slowed away and preparations made to
leave the sinking vessel at O'Clock. The
captain hoped to reach Georgetown At
8 O'Clock the City of Macon was sighted
and signalled and bore down on the dis
tressed vessel They went within about
100 yards of her when the captain and
crew put of in boat and were taken
on board the steamer.

Were Lost-The Exact Cause of the
Accident a Matter of Conjecture.
Tacoma, Wash, January i5.-Tho
British ship Andelins, capsised In this
port yesterday and all on board, Is men
and officers were lost.
The ship which was of English build.
and worth probably $3.50, 600. entered this
port several days ago.
She was taken to the Eureka dock and
all ballast removed and the hold cleared
preparatory to receiving cargo. She was
then towed to anchorage
She had out. according to obtainable
Information. the starboard anchor. and
to each side Of the vessel were attached
the ballast logs used to keep 3 ship up.
right during the absence of cargo or
ballast The ship was riding easily when
the shippers of other vessels anchored
close by retired for the night. When day
light dawDed, no signs of tho Andelina
we're visible. Over the spot where the
ship rode at anchor the night before only
q danger signal buoy lamp was visible
When the absence of the ship was disoov-
cred, Capt. Doty and Capt. Burley, took
tho tug Fairfield and made an investi-
cation and 1t was soon determined
beyond possible doubt that the ship had
gone to the bottom. As all on board
perishsd, only surmises as to the cause OF
the disaster were obtainable.
The heavy winds caused the ship TO
strain on the chains, making the log on
the weather side taut and giving ten
dency to lift the log from the water, but
the strain was too great for one of the
chains and 1t snapped. This released the
lowering craft from the restraint on the
weather side and she lifted with the
wind and there being little restraint from
the other end of the log raised it enough
to allow the meoring, chain to slip off.
The ship, freed from ballast and floating
like . chip, caresred under the pressure
of the heavy gale, shipping grest qusnti-
ties Of water, filling completely the hold
and forecas tie, causing her to capsize and
sink.
When the Andelina entered this port.
she was manned by crew of nearly 30
men. Some deserted and Others were
discharged until only IS were left. 1t is
said the ship was insured by an. English
agency for 800. 900.

NOTHING NEW in THE EAGAN
CASE.

Washington, January l5. Apparently
there were no developments today in the
case growing out Of the attack made by
Commissary General Eagan upon Gen.
Miles in the formers appearance before
the war investigation commission. Dur
ing the coming week the probability Is
some word will be received by the war
investigation commission from Gen.
Eagan in answer TO the letter of that
body suggesting the expurgstion of the
Objectionable part of his testimony. Gen.
Eagan declines to make any statement
in the matter for publication at this
time. William A. DeCaindry. the chief
clerk of the commissary generals office,
is out in a card admitting that he mailed
his resignation to the Secretary OF War
through Gen. Eagan on the monring
after the submission Of the latter's paper
to the war Investigation coin mission.
He says the report that the tender Of 1t
was due to tho action of Gen. Eagan In
giving practical supervision and control
of the Office of .hief clerk to his military
assistant can only be surmised. The
card confines:
THE reason for the presence OF every
provision in the contracts made by h4n
(Gen. Eagan). with Swift 81 Co., FOL
'hilied. refrigerated or frozen beef for the
army can be explained by none; and mol
being aware Of any investigation by Gen.
Eagan as to who drew up the contract
there is no dissatisfaction on my part
about the matter.
