CHICAGO RALLIES AROUND

2ina Carter, Republican, Second In the
Race and Aitgeid. Independent Demo
crat. n Very Poor Third-Harrison's
Plurality 30,8iO.

CHICAGO, April 5.-Cartcr II. uarri-
son was reelected mayor of Chicago
yesterday by n total vote of i46,oi4
against l07 1904 for Iina Il. Carter, the
republican candidate, and 45.4Oi for
John u, Altgeld, the independent dem
ocratic candidate. Harrison's plural
ity is 3o,6l0. In the last mayoralty
election Harrison was elected by n
vote of $4,000 against 50;3i2 for Zcars,
the republican nominee. and 60,Ga7 for
Harlan, the Independent republican.
The election was entirely upon local
issues, no element of national politics
entering into the campaign. The firm
stand taken by Mayor Harrison. against
the proposed fifty year extension OF
the street ear franchises was u strong
element of his popularity and gained
him many votes from the republican
party, besides holding closely to him
many of the democratic party.
The election was one OF the most
quiet that the city has cvcr expert
cnccd.
The suburb of Austin was annexed
To the city of Chicago ms n result Of
the election. This will add 1880 to
the population OF Chicago.

FIGHTING TO THE SOUTH,
Insurgents Seem to Bs Gathering In Front
Of Lawton's Division.

MANILA, April 3.-The American
forces commanded by General MacAr.
thur are resting at Malolos. The men
are in good condition, considering the
fatigues OF the campaign.
The plans of tho rebels, IL they have
any, are conjectural. Considerable
rebel forces have been collected along
the fronts Of General Lawton and
General Hall, who are holding the
line from the waterworks to La Lonia.
There is shooting nightly along this
line, apparently for the purpose OF
breaking the Americans sleep.
Consequently General Lawton has
detailed five sharpshooters from each
company to attend to the rebels and
the Americans arc picking off mum.

1t is reported that 1000 rebels under

companies OF the North Dalfota regi.
ment and a brisk engagement followed
during which seven Filipinos were
killed. Ga the American side a lieu.

GENERAL OTIS WILL ADVANCE,

WASHINGTON, April a-Thc follow.

o'clock this morning: Manila, April
l-Adjutant General. Washington,
Quiet prevails. Have directed troop,
at Malolos and OF the railroad on rc.
connoitering duty. Find insurgents

country who retire on the approach of

preparing for n continued active
campaign. Army in excellent spirits.
Otis"
In another cablcgram to the wa dc.
partinent General Otis reports that
the American troops rested after their
entrance into Malolos. The dispatch
indicates that the American forces
made no decisive forward movement
either yesterday or to day, excepting
those of occasional skirmishiny par.
ties.
1t is deducted from the dispatches
received from General Otis that there
is little left Of the army Of A~guinaldo,
and that his troops do not want to
face the American soldiers. IL is
supposed that scouting parties OF Cen
cral Otis army have been moving
about from different points upon tho
railroad line, more especially from
Malolos. and have encountered tho
few bands OF natives which Otis saws
retire upon the approach OF the Amer
lean troops.
General Otis has given no details
about the plan of the new campaign.
1t is believed that General Otis de-
sircs to ascertain now just where the
forces OF the insurgents are located
and in what number. IL Is thought
very probable that in the advance
TINT has been made from Manila to
Malolos the insurgents have not all
retreated along the railroad track,
but some have gone of into the rough
country to the right of the railroad
and may o be- lying in wait to set
upon small bodies OF American troops
or perhaps again destroy soma OF the
bridges on the railroad and FOR a time
cut off communication between the

Despite the failure of General Mac

Acting Secretary Meiklejohn said:
undoubtedly the taking OF the in.

The enemy's force has been greatly
weakened by the vigorous work OF the
Americans. and l believe 1t will not
be long before peace is restored to the
island"
Similar views were expressed by
Adjutant General Corbin.
Acting Secretary Meiklejohn says
that authority has been given General

The prince did not stir from his seat,
