WASHINGTON LETTER
From our Regular Correspondent

WASHINGTON, May l5-The re-
turn of the President has brought a
swarm of politicians to Washington
and Speakership talk and arguments
for and against an extra session OF
Congress are again heard in hotel
corridors and other places where
men congregate. There is also much
talk aLolt the unsatisfactory cont l.
ton in Cuba, owing to the delay in
disbanding the Cuban army, and
about Aguinaldo's persisting in send
ing Commissioners to negC tate for a
C .ssation of hostilities, in the face OF
the repeated retusals of Gen. Oti'-
! the last refusal has just occurred.
! There is little that is new in any OF
the talk for the simple reason that the
situation has not changed materially
in either ofthe cases mentioned, dur.
! ing the past week.
Washington is in gala attire, in
honor of the Peace Jubilee, which
opens tomorrow and continues for
three days. While the decorations
are not as numerous as at an In
auguration, some of them are hand
somer than we have had at any in
auguration, and more expensive, and
the attractions offered to visitors are
decidedly better than those at In

AGUINALDO IN STRAITS.

Manila, May 22.-Reports receiv-
G | from persons who have arrived
from the interior show that no Fill
Dino troops are left in the farnorthern
provinces. They were ali drafted
south after the outbreak of war. The
villages on the west coas; are almost
deserted.
The Ilocanos are DESTROYS OF join
ing tho Americans, if only for the
purpose ofcrushing the Tagals. Many
natives of Bcnguot and Ilocos say
that if the Americans had not arrived
civil war would necessarily have en-
sued, owing to the friction between
the Tagalos and the people Of other
provinces.
It is believed that the only Filipino
troops now left north of Manila are
seven thousand men, under General
Luna, at Tarlac and about four thou
>and under General Pic del Pillar.
Even these are short of arms and
supplies. Many of their rifles are dis
ablrd and the Filipinos are unable 10
repair them, owing TO the lack Of
mechanics and materials.
A coas,ing steamer which has ar
rived here, brings word that the
Spanish garrison at Zamboanpa, Is.
land of Mindanao, is held by the ma
t,yes in much the same manner as

serpent story, "and it's a croker"
saws several of the men who came up
TO Bridgetop yesterday. The colony
is in state OF panic, and n"b' dy
knows what will happen next. The
story is told in all seriousness by
three GOd-fearipg, highly respectable,
industrious and unimaglnaliyc fisher
men-Nelson Lilly, Thomas GRAHAM
and William Hewitt. The exciting
narrative is responsible for several
vacant berths in the sturgeon boats

selues the greatest of all attractions
to the average American. From
present indications, the out-of-town
attendance will not he as large as
those who planned the affair had a
right to expect.
The President has, by rather PLAIN
intimation, given Great Britain 10 I'M
derstand that, while supporter OF
the policy ofInternatiOnal arbitration
on general principles, he will not
agree to submit the claims mao ~
Great Britain in connection witG Nc
Alaskan boundary, TO arbitration. III
view of the fact that American and
British delegates are, at this time
attending the Cars Peace Conference
ami jointly advocating the establish
lent of international courts OF arb
tration TO settle all disputes between
nations, it may seem n little queer
that the President should practically
refuse Great Britain's request to sub
init the Alaskan boundary question
which the Joint High Commission
failed to settle, to arbitration, but II
isn't. From the American point o
view, the Presidents altitude is logi
cal. In fact, from the American
point of view, there is little or nothll
10 arbitrate. Great Britain has put
toward lot of claims, not with The
expectation that they would be allow
ed bv arbitration or by any othel
method, but with the hope that !
the matter should he submitted to
arbitration, it might get allowed the
port of Skaguay, which is believed &c
be its real object, in place OF It's othel
claims. Owing to the immense com
mercial interests of the l. 5, in The
Pacific, the President is not inclined
10 take any chances. The protest
filed by the British Government
a gainst the intended sending Of three
companies of L. S. Troops, TO patro
the border for the purpose OF pre-
venting trouble between American
and Canadian miners, was good-na
tured, and the troops will not be ser t,
although they will be KEEP
where they will be available

positiveness, that Great Britain does
Mt wish the boundary question set

tain that no such settlement can b'
reached with the consent of this GOV
