Manila. Nov. 21-6:05 p. m.-The whereabouts
OF Generals Lawton and Young are becoming as
mysterious as Agunaldo's The belief Is be-
ginning to grow at Manila that General Law
ton has struck the trail of the nsurgent gov
ernment" and is pursuing the Ministers into the
Binquet Mountains. 1t has been his ambition to
capture the Filipino leaders and he and Cen
eral Young believe that cavalry brigade, living
on the country. could run them down in any
part OF the island
One vague report brought by Spanish prison
ers Is that Aguinaldo and others were nearly
surrounded by the Americans soon after the
nsurgent chief left Tarlac but that he escaped
through the lines in peasants clothes.
Oficers and soldiers arriving at Cabanatuan
from General Lawton's force describe the
paign as one Of great hardshlps. Many men,
dropping out sick, were left at various towns
without adequate supplies and attendance, some
OF them making their way back across the ter
rbe roads. 1t reported that a number
Of horses were dying and many Of the soldiers
and even some OF the officers. were marching
ahead half naked. their clothes having been torn
to pieces in getting through the jungles. Hun
dreds were barefooted. their shoes being worn
out, and all were living on any sort OF pro-
visions.
General Lawton foresaw that the campaign
would involve such hardships, but he considered
1t the quickest and cheapest way Of ending
the war.
The last number Of THE Independence" pub
lished at Tarlac the day before the Americans
entered the place contains a respondent vale
dictory entitled "Adieu." The tone shows the
writer Considered the game played out. He
said; "Obliged to circumstances. we have
found 1t necessary to interrupt with this num-
ber the Pleasant labor Of defending our ideals
and interests. We take leave Of the public and
our readers with grief most profound and bit
terness most cruel"
The Zambales coast is carefully patrolled by
warships in order to prevent the escape Of
Agunado.
1t is believed that the Baltimore has proceeded
north to receive the American prisoners from the
Fpnos.

THE OCEAN RACE TO MANILA.

DAYS ahead Of the New-Orleans allowing time
for the latter to coal at Alden. The Brooklyn
lost time to the New-Orleans in going through

ARMY AND NAVY COOPERATION
Naval officers are annoyed by criticism of the
Admiralty for arranging sea transport by slow
ships and are retorting that the situation has
been saved by the navy's guns They contend
that the War Office was ignorant Of the artillery
resources Of the Beers, and allowed Ladysmith
TO be selected as camp without providing guns
equal in range to those mounted against II on
the outlying hills, but that the effect or this
blunder counteracted by the naval Il
Founders sent from the ships in the nick OF
time. This cannot be denied, nor can 1t be ques-
toned that the naval guns on improvised car
riages have transformed the situation at Est
court and on the Orange River.
A point which Englishmen not connected with
the rival services perceive is that the resources
Of the British Government for carrying on war
at long distance inland are enormously In
creased by the active cooperation OF the army
and navy in the present campaign. The blue
jackets now on exhibition at Ladysmith Est
court and the Orange River are like the Sepoys
displayed at Malta by Lord Beaconsheld as
practical reminder to Russia that there was

Garret A. Hobart was one OF the most popu-

Jerseymen long before he loomed up on the

sized later during his stay In Washington
He seemed able 10 understand everybodys pc
culiarities and to treat them sympathetically.
AS an administrator he able 10 get through
an amount OF work that would have appalled,
even men with a reputation for untiring IN
dustry and his judgment was rarely at fauit.
one odd thing about him was that. while ne
was always an ardert and uncompromising Re-
,ublican. and was invariably in the front rank
organizing and directing campaigns. yet his
btterest political opponents were among his
warmest personal friends
Mr. Hobart was born I'm Long Branch. on

careful about these introductions and

IMPROVED TOURIST sLEEPERs.
Railroads Are Acceding to Demands Of
Middle Glasses Who Want Better
Sleeping Car Service.

In response to the demands Of the
times the o. r. & N. and It's connea-
tions are placing in operation a much
better grade Of tourist sleepers for Pa
cinc coast service than at any previous
time. The largely increased traffic to
this section OF the country has demand
ed all the Improvements OF latter-day
transportation, and In consideration OF
this the railroads are establishing a
service which is excellent In every par
tlcular. Not only are the wishes Of
hrst-class passengers served. but those
VINO are travelling to and from the East
on second-class tickets are splendidly
cared for There was a time when a
tourist sleeper appealed to a limited
number OF people who were travelling
on the cheap" order, In every meaning
Of the term. Now, however. there has
been a radical change. With the bet
ter tourist sleepers in operation the
class Of passengers has been improved,
and one may now travel upon them
and enjoy all the privileges OF a first
class sleeper at greately reduced rate.
Daily, on the o. r. & n. east-bound
fast mail, is attached one OF these lat
est improved tourist sleepers, a model
OF beauty and handsome appointments.
The new cars are almost an exact
counterpart OF the first-class sleepers.
One noticeable feature Of the new
tourist cars is tn absence OF a smoking
apartment The new cars being buht
by the Pullman Company are not pro-
vlded with smoking apartments. This
new departure has been taken because
OF the fact that m0st through trains
are provided with composite cars, which
provide a smoker for the sleeplng-car
passengers.
