zAMBoANGA SURRENDERED.
The Second Largest Island In the Philip
pine Group.

The Second Largest Island In the Philip
pine Group.
Warrington, Nov. 2s.-Admiral Wat
son cables the secretary of the navy
that the entire province of Zamboanga
has surrendered and numerous chiefs
have declared loyalty to the United
States.
TIE information was received by the
president and his advisors with uncon.
cealed satisfaction. The surrender of
the province of Zamboanga is regarded
as the beginning of the end of the rev
olution in the island of Mindanao. and.
it is believed will be hard blow to
those who are still endeavoring to
maintain the insu, lection in the island
of Luzon.
Admiral Watson cabled the navy de-
partment that Commander Very had
captured the city of Zamboanga. He
was aided by friendly natives and Mo-
ros, and was holding the town pending
the arrival of reinforcements from Jolo.
On the same day General Otis informed
the war department that he had or
dered two companies of infantry to be
sent to Zamboanga from Jolo.
Zamboanga is the principal city OF
the island Of Mindanao, which is the
second largest island of the Philippine
group. Advices from Admiral Watson
indicate that the entire southern half
of the island, which comprises the pro-
vince of Zamboanga, has yielded to the
American forces and acceeded to the
authority of the United States.

A Hopeful Outlook.

Washington, Nov. 25.-By today Gen.
Otis will have received reinforcements
to the number of 5000 men. 1t is ex-
pected that the major portion of this
force will be thrown directly into Ca
vite province, south of Manila, and
will clean out the insurgents who have
infested that region. The opinion here
is that Aguinaldo's army will never
again come together with him in COM
mand. Gen. Lawton and Gen. Young
are following him so rapidly into Bay
ambang that no insurgent capital can
be again established.

of the Filipino congress-. presented
himself to Gener al MacArtht and form

clined. He now announces that he de-
sires to accept the position and says

A Mistake Of Date.

New York, Nov. PA Washington
dispatch has been widely published,
stating that the funeral of Vice Presi-
dent Hobart would take place on Sun
day, Nov. 26. This was a mistake as
the funeral will occur at Paterson on
Saturday.
Mr.. Hobart was a member of the Or
der of Free and Accepted Masons, of
high rank, thirty-second degree Scot
fish Rite Mason, and Knight Temp
lar. In reply to inquiries of represen-
tatives of various Masonic bodies it has
been explained to them that the fami-
ly deem it best not to have a Masonic
funeral.

Tho Anti Metcalf and Funston Talk.

Washington, Nov. 2s.-All the anti
Metcalf and Funston talk is not seri-
ously regarded by the war department.,
and by the Kansans and others here.
OF course an affidavit is generally sup
posed to amount to something, the
maker is open to a suit for libel. But
the war department is satisfied with
the course of both the Kansas generals,
so it is not likely it will take serious
eognizance of these charges. Secretary
Root and Adjutant General Corbin are
both quite emphatic in the belief that
there is nothing in the charges.

4 WEALTHY insane MAN..
Now Confined In Insane Asylum
In Kansas.
LAW MAKES A MILLIONAIRE.

Wichita. Nov. o7.-Judge T. B. Wall
of this city, has at last won in his big
lawsuit in behalf of William Wood, the
insane millionaire, who is now confined
ON the charity of the state in an asylum
at Topeka. Mr.. j. N. Haymaker,
Judge of the probate court of this coun-
ty, received information from the au-
thorities at Denver, Colorado, to the
effect that William Wood, an insane
ward in the probate court here, had
won in an important litigation which
had been pending in the Colorado
courts for nearly fifteen years, and
which gives the insane man large in
terests in famous Colorado mining
properties and makes him very
wealthy man.
/ w. r. Throckmorton of this city is
the guardian of the insane man, and
from the fact that the man was Sedg-
wick county citizen at the time he was
adjudged insane, and his guardian
living here, will doubtless bring into
the probate court of this county one OF
the richest estates that has ever been
administered in this court.
1t is understood that in all probable
ity Mr.. Throckmorton will take the
man to Europe and have an operation
performed in the hope of curing him,
SO that in the latter years of his exist
ence, which heretofore have been Sc
dark, may be enjoyed on the immense
wealth that has come to him.

GRAIN TRAFFIC BLOCKED.
Southern Kansas Side Tracks Full
of Loaded Cars.
ADVANCE IN FREIGHT RATES.

Kansas City, Nov. ga man always
posted in the grain market and it's
happenings says that Wichita and
Southern Kansas has seen good many
conditions that blocked grain traffic,
but never until now has the crop of
wheat and corn and its shipment
damned" on the tracks before. The
Missouri Pacific freight offices in Wich-
ita refuse to receive grain billing for
southern points. Not only is this the
case in Wichita, but at many other
places in Southern Kansas.
Such an immense quantity of grain
has gone out in the last two weeks
that the main tracks at stations where
grain is inspected are jammed so that
passenger trains can hardly get by.
The switches are all full and increased
elevators and inspection forces work
ing day and night cannot keep the
stuff moving. Even when shipments
have been caught and held at way sta
tons for ten or twelve hours, it has
failed to relieve the pressure and the
general order has gone out to hold up.
There are miles and miles of cars full
of grain that has to wait for days. The
switches were filed up days ago and
the heavier shipments have not started.
One prime reason for the jam, of
course, is the advance in rates that was
promulgated to 60 into effect in few
days. On this account every grain
man that had stuff for immediate ship
ment has made sudden effort to get
it through and save the additional tar
if that will come with the advanced
rate. Others have tried to rush every
thing through possible before the ad-
vance and the crop being unusually
heavy, which fact in itself has pro-
duced unusually heavy shipments, it
has altogether damned the tracks and
stopped shipments.
