REBELS ADMIT THEIR DEFEAT

Gen. Otis Declined to Entertain Any
Proposition Save Unconditional
SuSrender, Accompanies by
Promise of Amnesty to Rebels
Missing yorktown Men Have Been
Located as Prisoners.
NEW YORK, April 29.-(Special.)--A
special from Manila says:
THE conference between Gen. Otis and
emissaries from the Filipino army was
practically without result Gen. Otis
would consider no proposition save un-
conditional surrender, with proviso that
amnesty was to be granted to the rebels.
The Filipinos sent In under nag of truce
by Gen. Luna asked for an arDistice in
order that the Filipino congress might
pass upon the question of ceasing HOSTILE
ties. This was the point upon which the
negotiations came to an unsatisfactory
close. Gen. Otis fatty refused to recog-
nize the existence OF a Filipino congress,
and the emissaries returned to their lines,
it is believed for fresh instructions. The
rebels admit their defeat It Is said that
they are anxious TO surrender, but want
to shift the responsibility for the dis
aster to their congress-"
YORKTOWN'S MEN PRISONERS.
The same dispatch says that the men
sent from the Yorktown to make sound
ing in the approach upon Baler are said
to be held prisoners by the Filirinos at
Baler This news was conveyed to Ad-
miral Dewey, at Manila, through the
agency OF the repels. who assert that they
do not propose to surrender their pris-
oners.
WASHINGTON, April 29-Assistant
Secretary Allen, who is acting secretary
of the navy, said this afternoon that no
information had been received from Ad-
miral Dewey in confirmation oi the report
that the F'ilipinos at Baler are holding
Lieut. Gilmore and other missing men OF
the cruiser Yorktown as prisoners.

ton the fact that never during his epis-
copate of forty years had he experienced
the disobedience of a clergyman in his
diocese. Bishop Whipple said that he
thought it an absolute impossibility that
England should ever go back to Rome,
and, as far as America is concerned,
there is no such tendency anywhere. Con-
versation with the heads of the church
in England and America, however, con-
vinced him that there is widespread
desire for unity.
Speaking of Americanism in the Roman
Catholic church, Bishop Whipple said he
believed it was a passing phase, without
permanent effect. Bishop Whipple eulo-
gized Archbishop Ireland, whose great eff
forts for good, as a neighbor, he had
watched with great pleasure, and whose
liberal kindness toward churches could
not be doubted.

EMPEROR MAY BE BLAMED
tfons to Admiral Won Diedrichs
without Consulting With the For
eign Office - Emperor William
Reads Capt. Coghlan's Poem with
Evident Amusement.

Copyright by the Associated Press.)
BERLIN, April 29.-The CoghIan Incl
dent at New York has been very general
ly discussed by the German papers this
week, although it is evident that the jour-
nalistic mouthpieces of the government
did not desire to construe the objection
able utterance as anything more than the
remarks of a man who had not been ac-
customed to measuring his words. For a
day or two, however, a number of the
leading newspapers published severe
structures on the case. With q view to
obtaining a declaration from government
al headquarters, the correspondent here
of the Associated Press sought all inter-
view with Privy Councillor Iamman, a
high official of the foreign office. Hav-
ing been instructed by the minister for
foreign affairs, Baron Won Buelow, Coun-
cilior Hamman saiC:
so far as the foreign Office knows there
has never been a serious nliSunde rStand-
ing between Admiral Won Diedrichs and
Admiral Dewey, not even during the ear
ly part of last summer. We will not deny
that there may have been slight bitches
at first, for the situation was a difficult
one for both Germans and Americans.
Admiral Dewey may possibly have sus-
pectcd for time that Admiral Won Died
richs was intriguing with the Spaniards
at Manila, or that Germany may have
meant to take hostile stand This may
have been due to certain evolutions of
our ships which Admiral Dewey miscon-
strued. On the other hand, Admiral Won
Diedrichs probably keenly felt the re-
strictions of stringent blockade which
greatly hampered the movements of his
ships. This irksome position may have
tried the patience OF Admiral Won Died
richs at times. This, we believe, was the
case both at Manila and Iloilo, but what
ever little unpleasantness grew out of
this condition never. If we have been cor
rectly informed, took a serious complex
ion, and it never was so understood by
either party. All of this was over long
ego, and the grass has overgrown it.
Ever since the end of last summer the
relations Of Admirals Won Dfedrichs and
Dewey have been OF the most pleasant
character, and, according to latest ad-
vices, are so now, to the extent of rem
dering mutual services and fraternizing
on more than one occasion.
SAMOAN SITUATION SATISFACTORY

the case especially with the Americans.
