In speaking about the matter today an
official of the government who knows the
Presidents intentions said that the fact
that the islands are under military gov
eminent in no way affected the right Of
the President to establish whatever gov
eminent he may consider best. The Presi-
stands in the position of the COnGueror of
territory As d COnQuerOr he has undis-
puted authority, under international and
all other laws, to prescribe whatever form
of government he decides upon 1t may
be government by the bayOnet and 1t
may be q government without Il bayonct
in the whole territory.
The foundation of the Presidents power
in these islands is the law OF military gov
eminent said the official. but this does
not mean that soldiers are essential to
the government. The President. in his
position of commanderin-chief of the
United States exercises absolute control
over all territory held through military
occupation, and under the. laws of this
country he will continue that control until
Congress, with his consent, presCribes some
other government. Even if there We're no
precedents this would be clear to a legal
mind, but there are precedents. none more
notable than the acquisition of California
by this country. The evOlutiOnS of gov
eminent in California Were precisely the
same as Cuba and Porto Rico are now
going through"

Capture Two Dessrters.

T.. BOisman and q. H. Welcom. two
soldiers in the United States army
were arrested i'll the Jail in this city
last night charged with being deserters
from the service of the United States
On the night of Jan S, the two men
mentioned above left the barracks a
Fort Robinson, and until last nigh,
they were successful IN evading arres,
About a month ago the police
department of this city received
the descriptions of the men and
orders to arrest all persons ans
wering the description. Last
night two men dressed as tramps
applied to Marshal Coleman for a
nights lodging at the city Jail
After the men had entered the
we'll lighted Jail building, Marshal
Coleman noticed that the men in
several respects answered the des
cription of the two men wanted by
the government. This morning
when Day Marshal August Riss
reported at the Jail, Mr.. Coleman
impaired to him his suspicious.
Riss, after looking the two men
over, entertained the same suspi-
cions, and Immediately subjected
the men to rigorous cross ques-
tioning. At first the men told a
very straightforward story, utterly
denying they we're deserters, but
after Mr. Riss had continued his
questions, one after another, for
about ten minutes, the men com
menced to contradict themselves,
and finally acknowledged they
were deserters.
Riss telegraphed the arrest to
Fort Robinson and late this after
noon received an answer that de-
tail of soldiers would arrive'in the
city tomorrow and take the. men
back to Ft. Robinson. ;. ).

In order to cover their movements the
rebels again opefed fire on the Kansas

The firing was continued for twenty

The Fourteenth infantry has un-

which had evidently been stolen from
the Cavite arsenal and cached by the
rebels In the vicinity of Psrsnaque.
Fifteen cart loads of it have been
brought into the city, as has also q
modern naval gun and part of its
mount. There is no doubt that the
gun was stolen by the insurgents or
removed from one of the sunken ships.

THE LINE.
Los ANGELES, CAL, Feb. 1O.-A spe-
cial cablegram to the Times from Ma
Mia says Brigadier General II. q. Otis
holds the extreme left of the American
line from the bsy near Caloocsn. The
regiments on the line in support are:
The Twentieth Kansas, Colonel Fun
ston, eleven companies; First Mon
tana, Colonel Kessler, nine companies;
Third artillery, Major Kobbe, four bat
tsries. aud the Tenth Pennsylvania,
Colonel Hawkins, four companies.
Two companies Of the Tenth Pennsyl-
vania are behind the walls of the De
Iona church yard. Across the ravine
from the Montana regiment is Captain
Jensen's company, holding the stone
fort supporting Grants battery of four
Utah guns, q fifth gun to'the left and
on the railroad supporting the Kansas
troops.
To reach its present position the
brigade has advanced four times since
Saturday in series Of brilliant COM
bats on different parts Of the line of
action, especially so on the 4.h, 5th and
7th. The last advance was the most
sanguinsry, the American loss being
one killed and six wounded, while the
Filipinos suffered loss of forty four
killed and were utterly routed. The
brigade has lost to date six killed and
fifty-fiue wounded. The Filipinos lost
100. All the dead were buried. Sew
eral bayonet charges we're made on the
7th during the advance Of the right
and center. The taking Of the Chinese
cemetery on the 9th by the Montana
and Pennsylvania regiments was q
superb piece Of work. A brilliantly
executed advance up the slope in the
open battle made picture that would
delight any veteran.
