GENERAL MAC ARTHUR.
railroad communication to the advanced
point the difficulty in forwarding COM
missary supplies will be considerably
lessened. Every step forward is regard
ed as so much ground gained and an ap-
proach nearer to the insurgent headquar-
tiers at Malolos. now stated to be but
10 miles from the vanguard from the
American army.
The tenacity of the Filipinos in the
past few days fighting has somewhat
surprised the war officials here, who did
not think them capabl of putting up and
maintaining the contest they have.
A press bulletin dated at 9:15 this
morning was the first news of Mon
days fighting received by the war de-
partment officials. General Otis dis
patches up to that time having been con-
lined to yesterdays operations. The fact
that the insurgents had been forced to
retire from Malabon SO early in the day
was regarded as very encouraging, and
Acting Secretary Meiklejohn remarked:
THAT is good; very favorable indeed"
Word is hourly expected at tho war
department of the arrival of the trans
port Sheridan at Manila, with 1900 re-
Inducements for General Otis. This
will be a formidable addition to his
fighting strength. They include one full .
regiment and the headquarters, and one
battalion Of another, and if the expert
ence Of those taken aboard the Grant
and Sherman is repeated they will be in
fighting trim as soon as they land and
ready to be pushed Immediately to the
front.
Six regiments Of infantry and artil-
lcry comprising approximately 5000 men.
one regiment Of which sailed from San
Francisco Saturday, are under orders
for Manila. Their movement will be
pushed as rapidly q possible, with
view to the reinforcement of General
Otis at the earliest day practicable.

YANKEEIzING MEXICO.
American Ideas and Methods ATai.ins Gre,
strides

American Ideas and Methods AIa,sing Great
Boris f. .Gorow, one of the leading
business men OF the city Of Mexico,
arrived in New York yesterday. lie
Is delighted with the progress Ameri-
can ideas are making in Mexico.
"The growth Of the English lang
uage in Mexico" he said, is some
thing remarkable. am in a good DO.
sition TO tell because of my importa-
tions Of books, newspapers and period
icals. Each year those in the English
language increase in number, while
those OF other nations fall off. Eng
lish is taught now not only in the
families Of the we'll to do, bat among
the middle classes and even among the
artisans.
The American colonies all over
Mexico are growing rapidly. and
American interests throughout the
nation are fast supplanting those Of
other nations French and German
interests are fast being wholly sup
planted
Mr. Gorow found that during the
late war with Spain there was much
sympathy felt for the United States,
though NJ xico is a Spanish spe aking
nation Every victory o! the Americi n
arms was enthusiastically celebrated
in the city OF Mexico.
"The Clerical party was pro Spanish, "
said Mr., Gorow. but the Liberal
party, the one now In power, was de
cidedly 10 favor Of the United States.
The officers OF the Mexican govern
ment saw to it that strict neutrality
was maintained, and in that alone
were favorable TO the United States.
There were no pro-Spanish outbreaks
Us there were in other Spanish speak,
ing countries, and no funds aised for
Spain's benefit as there were in South
American countries that forgot their
obligations TO the United States. For
a time there was a feeling that the
United States would have hard job
in whipping Spain, but after Dewey's
famous victory all Mexico knew it
would be only q question Of few
weeks.
"1hanks to the administration of
President Diaz, we arc enjoying pro-
found peace aud progress along all
hoes Of industry that are remarkable.
Much of this is due to the law which
mhhes compulsory PtihiHiy SuucatIoh'
The smallest town in Mexico now has
it's primary school support d by the
government, and the present genera
tion OF Mexicans Is growing up with
knowledge of reading, W iting and
arithmetic something never known to
previous generations
o There are plenty OF chances for
American capital in Mexico, but none
for American labor, as native labor is
now too cheap. There ls plenty Of
money, however, in coffee, vanilla, TO-
baeco, sugar and hard woods. In the
past year SO ,OOO, 600 more silver a month
was taken from the silver mines than
during 1897 BrigaRdage is suppressed, =,
and Mexico, / feel certain, has q won
derful future with its new American
