GOING FORWARD.
Upon Cabanatuan-The Gunboat La
Guna de Bay Disperses Rebels

MANILA, Oct 3O.-Gen. Young with
the infantry is advancing upon Caba-
nathan under difficulties. The county
is furrowed with rivers and deep RAJ
vines, the bridges over which have
been destroyed, the mud is deep, ra-
tions are short and the transportation
of supplies has been delayed by low
water and the poor condition of roads.
There are sufficient stores however to
keep the brigade.
The insurgents for long time have
lived off the country, impoverishing it.
The American horses are not yet ac-
custOmed to the native grass and a
long bullock train has left San Fer
nando, carrying hay for the cavalry.
The Spaniards report that there are
no insurgents at Cabanatuan. The
gunboat La Guna de Bay dispersed
force Of rebels who were engaged in
constructing trenches beyond Santa
Roas. The boat was fired upon by
party of insurgents bearing a white
flag. She is now aground. Numbers
of Chinese are coming to Angeles from
Tarlac, paying the insurgents for the
privilege.
1t is reported that Aguinaldo and
the Filipino congress are still at Tar
lac. There are about 500 insurgents
before Angeles. They have been quiet
for the past week. Two thousand
rebels are at Bamban, five miles to the
north. Gen. Bates has been recalled
from San Fernando and ordered to sail
for the southern islands as soon as pos
Sible.

COTTON INDUSTRY.
The Southern States Have Vital Interests
in the Development and Control of
Asiatic Markets by America.

CHARLOTTE, n. c., Oct. 3O.-In adj
dressing large gathering of southern
co ton manufacturers and planters at
Charlotte under the auspices of the
chamber of commerce, John Barrett,
late United States minister to Siam,
said: THE south has vital interest in
development and control of Asiatic
markets by America. The time will
soon come when the far east will
consume every surplus pound of cotton,
manufactured or raw, that the south
can produce, making her independent
of the ma rkets of England and Eu-
rope.
To accomplish this result four i'm
portant conditions are necessary which
in themselves are inter-dependent-
first, construction of trans Isthmian
canal; second, laying of trans-Pacitic
cable; third, protection of markets in
China according to treaty rights. and
fourth, permanent control of the Phil
ippines."
The sentiments expressed were re-
ceived with warm approval.

People of the Island Slowly But
Surely Rebuilding Their
War-WaSted Homes.
INDUSTRIAL SITUATION IMPROVING.
The General Thinks the Time is Not
Ripe Yet, However, for Purely
Cuban Government.
The Cubans Are TractabIe and Quiet and
the Revolution Has Given Them Self
Respect and Self Reliance-Money
Gradually Going Into Cuba.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 80. Gen. Fitzhugh
Lee, who arrived in Washington Sat
urday night from New York, in an in
terview Sunday, said that the people
of Cuba are steadily improving under
the existing protectorate of the United
States, and are slowly but surely re-
building their war-wasted homes and
repairing their crippled fortunes.
Life and property are secure in Cuba
owing largely, he said, to the salutary
restraint exercised by American mill
tary authority. He thinks the time
not ripe yet however, for purely Gu
ban government. Cuba" said Gen.
Lee, us improving. The Cubans are
tractable and quiet and the revolution
has given them self respect and self
reliance.
Their impulses are generally in the
right direction, but of course, both in
the theory and practice of self-govern-
ment, they are wholly without expert
ence. There is among certain Cubans
a deep seated prejudice against some
men who, the Cubans think, oppressed
Cubans under Spanish rule, and if
given a free rein the Cubans would
make short work of them.
THE United States government is
pledged to grant independence to Cuba
after the island has been pacifed, and
believe that promise should be full
filed just as swiftly as we can in rea-
son and justice. The industrial situa-
ton is improving and money is gradu-
ally going into Cuba, but nothing like
as fast as it would if investors were
sure that property would remain safe

THE SYSTEM TESTED.
Experiments in Telegraphing Between
War Vessels without Wires by
the Navy Department..

New YORK, Oct. 26.-The navy de-
partment continued its tests of the
Marconi system of wireless telegraphy
Friday. The demonstrations are be-
ing made on the flagship New York
and the battle ship Massachusetts in
the North river off the foot of Thirty
fourth street. The ships lay 44S yards
apart and the demonstration was one
of speed and accuracy. Code mes
sages, using both the navy and
the international Morse codes,
were sent, besides numbers and
letters selected at random. The larg-
est continuous message was news
paper article of 200 words. In all,
there were six demonstrations and the
work continued with intervals of pre-
paration for about two hours. Signor
Marconi said he paid no attention to
the speed attained as the navy depart
ment was more particular as to the &C
curacy.
The equipment overhead consisted
only of wires strung from the cross
beams of both vessels. On the New
York the apparatus was in the
after gun room, and here Signor Mar.
conf did his work. On the Massachu-
setts the receiving and sending was
done in the captains Office, where one
of MarcOni's assistants was stationed.
The clicking of the instruments is vi.
brant and could be heard throughout
either ship.
OF the naval board which is super
vising the tests, Lieut.. Commander
Newton and Lieut.. Hill watched the
work on the flagship and Lieut.. Bliss
was on the Massachusetts. When the
tests were concluded they held a con-
ference on the New York and COM
pared notes. They will make final
report to the chief of the bureau
of equipment of the navy de-
partment. Signor Marconi does not
know whether these preliminary
tests will be continued on Saturday
but it is expected that on Monday the
New York and the Massachusetts, will
cruise off Sandy Hook in order to
make long distance test of the sys-
tenn. They may be away from the
anchorage for several days. At times
the vessels will be 40 miles from each
other and this will be the crucial
demonstration. If successful it will
prove how valuable the sys-
tenn would be during a naval
engagement, or while fleet is block
aiding an enemy's coast. During the
long distance test the great guns of
the war ships will be discharged as a
further test.
None of the members Of the naval
board would give an opinion of the
work done by Signor Marconi.
Adm. Farquhar watched the dem
onstrations for a time and seemed
greatly interested.

Coal Famine Threatened.

is threatened in this part of the state.
There is shortage of 200 600 tons, and
wholesale dealers find it almost impos-

reason for the shortageis the fact that
it is nearly impossible to get cars, ow-
ing to the heavy business being trans
acted by the roads.
