probably be known by tomorrow whether
the insurgents intend to make fight at
Tarlac. If the American troops meet with
no resistance at Bambang, few miles
north of Nabalacat. it will be an indica-
tion of a general movement of the IeSels
toward Bayonbong. General Wheaton 5
forces probably landed at some point on the
Gulf Of Lingayen yesterday morning They
should by this time be well south toward
the River Agno.
General Young crossed the river at Tala-
Cvra with his troops this morning. and is
now pushing north as rapidly as possible
in the direction of San Jose. His object
apparently is to obtain a position to the
northeast, where he can connect with
Wheaton, who is supposed to be coming
down from the northwest. If these plans
go through another insurgent capital viii
fall in a short time.
"El Noticiero" announces that Aguinal-
do is organizing force of sharpshooteTs.
II is suggested that the Americans shoull
organize a similar corps at once.
The report that Aguinaldo has gone to
Bayonbong has not been verified.

the Gulf of Lingayen last night The Ma
Mia is one of the naval vessels that acted
as a convoy for Gen. Lloyd Wheatons ex-

expedition Of $500 men started from here
last Saturday on three transports and it was
stated that its object was to get behind
Aguinaldo and prevent him from retreatng
further north. The commander of the Ma

ADVANCE IN CARPETS.
II Has Been Announced by the Manu-
fncturers.

New York. August 1,---Circulars issued
by various carpet manufacturers announce
increase in prices of Brussels, velvets.
tapestries and Administers. These prices
are the direct result Of advances made in
carpet woods and widening in the retail
trade. 1t is thought that other advances
will be made later, as the cost of the raw
material advances and other expenses In
crease. The circulars recently sent out
provide that up TO August Is orders are TO
be flied at present prices.
The present is the second advance made
by manufacturers since the opening of the
season. The sales which have been made
since the first advance was announced
have not diminished in number or in cali
Der because of the increased prices which
jobbers and retailers have been asked to
pay The prosperity in the carpet trade
has to all appearances. been healthy
one, finding It's source in the actual needs
Of consumers. In this fact the more con-
servatiye agents base the assumption that
there viii be no carpet trust at least
for the present.
Following the action of the Brussels and
tapestry manufacturers. the manufacturers
OF ingram carpets, art-squares and rugs
and similar lines OF all or part cotton are
said to be contemplating general adj
vance in prices. \ lobber said that he had
received limitations that this was to be
the case.
