MANILA, Nov. f.-It 10 now feared that
Aguinaldo has again eluded the vigilance
OF the American forces in pursuit of the
Filipino chief. There is reason to believe
that he Is not inside the trap arranged
for his reception BY the American gener-
ais. His whereabouts is still the aIl-ab-
scrbing question. No one knows whether
he is now in the Dagupan valley or
whether he has escaped northward
through the gap between Gen. Wheaton
and Gen. Young. Two days ago what ap-
peared to be an authentic report reached
the headquarters here that the rebel lead
er was at Crdanta, toward which town
the Americans are now =converging.
Gen. Young has reached Tayug and San
Nicholas, which is some distance north
west of Humingan. The last reports
show that Wheaton has made little or no
advance from San Jacinto, so that there
is wide gap left through which AguinL

the observatory said:
We have made several pictures during
our observation of the meteors, but are
not sure we will be able to photograph
any meteors whatever. We think that tha
shower must be over, and we shall take
no more observations at present. We
have observed large number of sporadic
meteors, but have apparently caught no
