The PHILIPPINEs.-American SOL
diers tried to land at Quamares Island,
near I!oilo, but were driven back by
armed natives. Filipinos st Iloio have
sunk lighters in the channel, so as to
keep out American warships. 1t is re-
ported that the Filipino government at
Malolos is willing to agree to the estab-
ishment Of an American protectorate,
provided independence in stipulated
time is guaranteed.
Snnator Foraker's statement that
the administration does not favor q
permanent occupation of the Philip
pine Islands is said to have been made
without official authority. 1t is be
believed the President desires perna-
nent occupation Of the Philippines and
it is generally recognized that he in.
tends to hold on to the islands if the
treaty is ratified.

No MATTER what reasons the repub-
licans may assign for refusing to help
poor old and disabled ex-Confederales
who fought, as is now corceded by all
unprecedented men, even in the North,
for their constitutional rights, the true
reason, is their abiding hatred for the
South, and for the people Of this section,
as class. They are willing to pay the
insurgents of Cuba and the Philippines,
and to spend hundred Of millions OF
public money in their behalf, that is,
nominally, but the poor old crippled
ez-Confederate, even if he were willing
to accept any thing from them, they
would allow to starve rather than af-
ford him any assistance.

Referring to President McKinley's
recent southern trip, the bishop spoke
of some OF its incidents ss "a trife
gushing" and said that it was rather
late to find out that it was mistake to
give universal suffrage to the negroes.
This had been his opinion all along.
Among other things ne said:
Because commission OF gentlemen
in Paris agree to pay 10000, 900 for the
Philippines it does not mean that We
have possession OF them. 1t was
sharp bargain. There are about l 200
islands and 100000 of inhabitants.
This is cheaper than your fathers

shows the urgent need for several va

affairs at the headquarters Of

state, it is not at all wonderful that the
unfortunate condition should extend
throughout the entire force; and that it

THAT Mr.. Mckinley is not q really
wise man is well known to those famil'

are not, that fact is made plain by his
recent appointment OF Mr.. Choate as
Ambassador to Eogland. As his coun-
try has the real friendship OF no foreign
government, and noteven that which is
professed except OF Great Britain, he
should strive to increase for it the
love and devotion of all OF its own citi-
zsns. But, instead OF that, he has gone
out of his way to afront all his millions
of Irish fellow. citizens, by making the
appointment referred to, as Mr.. Choale,
only short time ago, took occasion to
put himself on record as saying that
they should pack their duds and return
to their homes. He will buy his re-
nomination, but Will receive few Irish
votes, except those Of the professionals.

UNDER FLAG OF TRUCE.
Macarthur Sends ENJOYS to Arrange Ex-
change Of Prisoners.

Manila, May 2, S.25 a. m.-Gen. Mac
Arthur has sent officers to Gen. Antonio
Luna, the Filipino commander, under a
flag of truce, carrying money and pro-
visions for the American prisoners in his
hands, and asking an exchange of pris-
oners and the names Of such as he may
have. 1t is reported that the insurgents
have two officers and 16 others and 1t Is
supposed that among these are Lieut..
j. c. Gilmore and the II men OF the crew
of the gunboat Yorktown who fell into
the hands of the FilipinOs last month,
when the gunboat visited Baler, on the
coast of Luzon.
Maj Bell, with squad of scouts, has
captured the town Of Macabes, about
four miles southwest Of Calumpit, the
people ringing bells and shouting
TWAS"
The American army is now employing
Macabebes instead of Cinnamon, and
they are delighted to get SO cents day,
declaring their loyalty to the Americans.
Maj Cen Lawton Is advancing. He
has organized a band of 40 scouts to go
ahead of the column The band, which
is under W. M. Young, an old Indian
fighter who killed five Filipinos last
week.
Yesterday, the anniversary of the bat
tie of Manila Bay, was observed by the
United States fleet, the usual drills being
omitted. Admiral Dewey had many vis
itors and the American and British mer-
chantmen dressed ship.

GILMORE is SAFE.
Ten Of Yorktown's
Crew Held by the
Enemy.
FIVE ARE IN DOUBT.
Supposed They We're Killed
in Skirmish Before
Capture.

Washington, May 1.-The following
cablegram has been received from Ad-
miral Dewey:
Manila. April 30, 1899.
Secretary Navy, Washington:
Apparently reliable information ten
of the Yorktown boat crew, including
Gilmore are prisoners at insurgent
headquarters Am continuing inyesti-
cation. Dewey.
AS there were Is members of the
Yorktown party captured by the Fill
ippinos at Baler and Admiral Dewey
accounts for only ten of them, 1t is
feared that the other five have been
killed. They probably were killed or ia
tally wounded in the original assault
upon the landing party at Baler. The
identity of the members of the party
still unaccounted for is not known. A
telegram was sent to Admiral Dewey,
asking him to inform the department
if possible of the names of the men
known to be in the hands of the Flip
pinos.
1t is expected at the department that
the reason he has not already fur
nished these names with the exception
of that of Gilmore, in his dispatch of
yesterday, was because he did not have
the information. The insurgent head
quarters, where Admiral Dewey says
the men are held prisoners, is supposed
to be San Tornado, but there is no as
surance on that point.
