Terribly DURING the Two Days
March From Cervantes to
Bagnen and Return.

Manila, Dec. 1T.-MaJ. PeyJOn ".
March, of the SD infantry, has aban-
doned his pursuit of Aguinaldo and
has reached Begnen in the heart of
the Grand Cordillera, where the range
is 10000 feet high and where food is
scarce and travel almost impossible.
From native couriers and Spanish
prisoners it was learned that Aguin-
aldo left Bontoc. in the province of
the same name, with three women
and two soldiers three days ago, and
headed southwark, evidently for Bay
omburg, in the province of New Viz
caya, where ii is thought he may en-
counter the Americans.
Maj. March's command was depleted
20 per cent by the two days march
from Cervantes to Bagnen, SO he re-
turned to Cervantes December 10.
Scattered bands of Macabebes, which
have been operating in the north, are
being collected with the intention Of
sending them back to Manila, as there
is much sickness among them, and
they are unfit for further mountain
work.
Lieut.. Chadwick and correspond
ent, the latter commanding 30 Maca-
bebes, have visited the mountain town
Of Pamposa and received the surren-
der of company of insurgents, in
. Guiding three officers, with their arms
and ammunition.
Gen. Conception and other Filipino
officers who have surrendered, have
been taken to Vigan. Conception, who
is cheerful, insists that the insurgent
organization will be maintained, even
in the districts where the Americans
are operating, also claiming that the
Filipino leaders can use their troops
when they desire. He suggests that
the only method of terminating the
war is the capture of Aguinaldo and
the obtaining of an order from him
for the troops to surrender their arms.
But Conception believes Aguinaldo
will never be captured.
Washington, Dec. 17.-Gen. Otis ca.
bles as follows:
Manila, Dec. 16.--On the sth inst,
Gen. Smith, at Negros,, reports that
early in December number of the
inhabitants of four coast towns en-
tered the mountains, believing the
statements of Panay and Luzon
agents that the Americans had been
overwhelmingly defeated in those is
lands; that Aguinaldo was about to
dictate terms of peace, and the Amer
lean congress to confer independence
when the established civil government
of the island would be overthrown.
They also were told that all Negros
were about to arise and drive out the
Americans. No depredatons were
committed and no consequences of
Importance apprehended."

THUNDER MOUNTAIN RUSH
Waryens, Florence ard Adjacent Camps
Deserted for the ShiSe.

From now on until thr snow
puts an end to prospecting, a Sc
ries Of wild excitements may lie
anticipated. first in one portion and
then in another of Central Idaho.
The field is vast, rich and practi-
cally unexplored until this year.
Now the treasure hidden in this
wild territory will, in a measure,
be revealed.
For the past week notable
stampede has taken place toward
Thunder mountain. This district
is situated in direct line south
east Of the Hump on the south side
of Salmon river. 1t is confidently
claimed that the big Hump lodges
and the phenomenal finds on 'rhun-
der mountain, are continuation
Of the same formation. Be this as
it may, you can stand on the sum-
NIT Of the Hump and look down
upon the scene of the present rush,
if gifted with powerful magma
tiOn.
1t is not to be supposed that
such men as Captain Wood, of the
lola mine, Jack Rice, of Florence,
and a dozen others of equal promi-
nencc and reliability are all indug-
ing in conversations through their
sombreros concerning this matter.
They are agreed that the strike is
something far out Of the ordinary,
and the rush thither has assumed
wild proportions. Warrens, Flor
ence and other camps are reported
practically empty on this account.
1t appears that prospector
grubstaked by Jake Rice was the
first man to stumble upon the true
value of the enormous lodges that
have long been known to exist on
that mountain. Indeed, it reads
like the story of the discovery OF
the Buffalo Hump mines over
again. We cannot but feel disap-
pointed in not having received
more definite details of the strike
from our Warrens correspondent,
who makes merely passing men,
tion of the matter Doubtless
further information on this head
will be forthcoming later. We are
reliably informed this morning that
over 800 men were already on'tht
scene of this discovery, and hun
dreds on their way as fast as hors,
and mule can carry them.
