opening of the chamber Of deputies
yesterday, General Pelleux, the pre-
mier and minister of the interior, ad
dressed an attentive house. He said
that in consequence of interpretations
touching the Chinese question, the gov
eminent had been forced to consider the
gravity of the situation. The effect of
Tuesdays debate showed large minor
ity in the chamber of deputies against
the action in China, which would be sup
ported only by weak majority. The
Interruptions, however favorable to the
reverse, united in disapproving the
method followed by the government on
this occasion. Therefore, the prime min
lister said. there could be no useful re-
suit from further discussion. General
Pellcux concluded by announcing the
resignation of the cabinet.

Washington, May 3.-The session of
the Association OF American Physicians
at the Arlington yesterday was marked
by an important paper on typhoid in the
volunteer camps by DR.. V. C. Vaughn,
one of the board of surgeons appointed
by Surgeon General Sternberg last sum-
mer to look into this matter when the
epidemic of typhoid was prevalent in
the various army camps.
The board made very thorough study
Of the subject. and it's report has been

work. The report is not yet COM
pleted. but DR.. Vaughn's paper was in
the nature of an advance statement,
with the sanction of General Sternberg,
who was present at the meeting.
Dr. Naughn's paper was n severe ar
raignment of the volunteer surgeons, and
incidentally of the officers who We're re-
sponsibe for the policing of the great
camps at Jacksonville, Chickamauga

important matters which the police will
not disclose.
All the letters were dated New York

police at once had one of the powders
examined, and traces of arsenic We're
found. The powders were then placed in
the hands Of a chemist, who is now care
fully examining them. The police soon
got to work on the case, with the result
that Ranieri was placed under arrest.
Ranieri was once the neighbor of De
Sabato, and it is alleged he induced De
Sabato's wife to leave her husba nd and
live with him, and that her son went to
Pontoosuc and induced his mother to re-
turn home. But little is known of the
parties, who remain silent regarding the
affair, which has created considerable
excitement since the news of the alleged
attempted poisoning became known.

Manila, May 4.-There was a confer
ence lasting two hours Wednesday be-
tween Major General r.. s. otis and the
ENJOYS who came here from native head
quarters bearing proposal for cessa-
tion of hcstilitics. General Otis adhered
to his refusal to recognize the So-called
government of the insurgents.
The natives now ask for a truce of three
months to enable Aguinaldo to summon
the congress and consult with the in
surgent leaders on other islands. The
ENJOYS admitted the contention of Cen
eral Otis that Aguinaido has little &C n
tro! over affairs outside of the island of
Luzon.
The ENJOYS have abandoned the pre-
tense under which they came to General
Otis that they represented General An
tonic Luna. ana they announced that
they came as representatives of Aguin-
aldo himself. The two emissaries used
all their WlleS to secure reply from Cen
eral Otis to the letter from Senior Habini,
Aguinaldo's prime minister and minister
of foreign affairs in the dictator's cab
met, which they presented to General
Otis Tuesday but General Otis refused
to make any reply on the ground that to
do SO would be equivalent to a recog-
milton of the so-called government of the
natives. Major Arguelles said that
Aguinaldo knew he would be overpow
cred in time, but that he would be able
to continue the fight for months, and
that he would do so unless he were given
what Major Arguelles termed peace with
dignity.
After the close of the conference with
General Otis, the insurgent ENJOYS had a
consultation with the United States
Philippine commissioners. Mr.. Schur-
man expresses the opinion that the in
terviews accorded by General Otis to the
native ENJOYS will have a good moral
effect, as tending to convince Aguinaldo's
representatives that the American au-
thorities mean to give the natives Il good
government, and not one of the Spanish
sort.
General Macarthur is now assaulting
the town of San Tomas, about five miles
northwest of Calumpit.
The Americans are fighting for the
