RETREAT BY RAIL.
Gsneral MRcArthur Again Routs the
Filipino Army.

Manila, April 29.---General Mac
Arthur's division crossed the Rio
Grande today, and advanced on Apalit,
completely routing the flower Of the
rebel army.
The enemy were very strongly en-
trcnched on the river bank near both
sides OF the railroad bridge. General
Wheaton sent Colonel Funston across
with two companies OF the Twentieth
Kansas regiment, couple OF privates
swimming the swift stream with rope
under CALLING fire for the purpose Of
guiding the raft.
The men crossed in squads OF 20, and
attacked the left flank Of the rebels,
who scuttled like rabbits into covered
ways and trenches. The rest OF the
regiment was compelled TO cross the
bridge In single file along the stringers.
All OF the wood work and much OF the
iron work had been removed. The
First Montana followed the Kansas
across the bridge.
| The First Nebraska regiment, acting
as a reserve, attacked the rebels in
three lines OF trenches, driving them
out, killing 10 and wOunding many.
In the meantime large body of Fill.

black charger, that was evidently
coming TO reinforce the rebels who were
engaged with the Nebraskans, appeared
in the open field about two miles to
the left.
Emerging from the jungle, the en-
emy formed an open skirmish line
nearly two miles in length, with very
thick reserves behind. They advanced
at double-qnick until they were about
1900 yards from the American line,
when General Wheaton ordered his
troops to fire.
The rebels, who were evidently un-
aware that the Americans had crossed
the river. broke and ran in the direc-
tion Of Macabebe. The other Filipinos
fed toward Apalit station.
The heat in the early part OF the ai-
ternoon was terrific. but drenching
thunderstorm, which came later, great.
ly refreshed the Americans.
Most Of the rebels fed TO Apalit
station, where trains were awaiting
them. They left hurriedly, presuma.
bly, for San Fernando.
The towns of San Vincente and
Apalit were simultaneously burned and
evacuated by the natives.
Twenty pi isopers were captured. in.

The American troops also captured
brass cannon and quantity Of arms
and ammunition, and the same evening
they captured Maxim gun on the rail.

The lighting lasted from noon until
o'clock. The American loss is one
man of the Montana regiment killed
and three officers and six mon wounded.

the misery and disease prevalent in
Kazan, says:
"Crime, mortality and the murder of
still-born infants have increased, and
now scurvy and typhus are devouring
the population like a contlagration
famed by the wind; but this is a case
not of houses and barns. but of human

A republican legislature created a
aboard of appeals" and by so doing
increased the expenses of the grain
department about $1,000 This extra
expense forced the railroad and ware
house commission to increase the
rates to the old scale in order to meet
it. But republican papers are boldly
blaming Gov. Lind for this increase
of inspection charges. They claim it
is to pay for more inspectors and
weighers at increased salary. But
there is not one more inspector or
weigher on the force than before and
not single salary has increased a
penny. o, Ananias! Ananiasl How

At this writing the official figures

not attempt to correct the earlier re-
turns given in our news columns.
The greatest interest of the cam
paign conferred in Ohio and Nebraska,
where the campaigns were fought on
national Issues and where the homes
of the leaders of the two great politi-
cal forces of the country reside.
The result in Nebraska shows a
splendid vindication for Bryan. The
majority Of the fusion forces, which
carried the state in 1896 by less than
5000, this year will reach a figure be-
tween eighteen and twenty thousand.
Neville, the populist, is elected to
congress. Bryan bombarded the state
effectually in one of his characteristic
camp aigns, and the increase of the
fusion vote is regarded as an express
sion of the people on the imperialistic
tendencies of the party in power.
In Ohio, Senator Hanna's man
Nash was elected governor by plur-
atty of about $4,000 votes. The re-
suit is being cried out all over the
country as a great victory for imper-
ialism. II it will give the powers be-
hind the throne the assurance to un-
mask themselves aud their purposes,
the result ought to be hailed with sat-
isfaction by every person who wishes
to see the new dangers to the Ameri-
can republic averted. Jones of Tole'
do who was an independent candidate
for governor but who never lost an
opportunity to denounce the Philip
pine war secured 100000 votes. II
this is added to McLean's vote which
was all anti-imperialistic it will be
seen that even in Ohio, where it is said
the republicans spent million of dol
lars and made terrific campaign
the expression of the people upon the
issue of Imperialism was $4,000 votes
in majority against it.
In most of the other state contests
except in states like Iowa anG Missis
sippi, where no change was to be ex
pected, the democratic or republican
gains were largely influenced by loca
conditions or issues.

TO BE EXPLAINED.

One of the most unaccountable
things that have happened on the Pa
cific coast lately has passed without
anything like the notice it deserved.
An officer of the British army was al
lowed to thoroughly inspect the forti-
locations at the mouth Of the Columbia,
He was taken to Fort Stevens on the
government tender, George H. Men,
dali, which came to Astoria to meet
him, on the order of some one high in
authority in the War Department, d.
recting the officers in charge at Fort
Stevens to provide the means for his
conveyance. He was shown through
the Interior of the Notifications. He
took copiOus notes. He was taken
across the Columbia to Forts Colum-
bia and Candy. He spent the day ex-
aiming the Notifications and went
away loaded to the guards with just
the information that would be of in
calculable value to any fo' eign nation
with which we might become involved
in war; with information which no
private citizen of the United States
would be allowed to acquire.
We're these facts not authenticated
beyond all controversy, itwould seem
increditable that this administration
would, under any other circumstances
allow any officer or citizen of any tor
eign government to become acquainted
with the inmOst secrets of our harbOr
defenses.
France is just now making herself
an object of contempt to the world by
furnishing an innocent man for a
crime, which some one committed, OF
selling Information of not half the i'm
portance of this which is freely placed
at the disposal of a foreign military
officer.
The fact that we are now on go0C
terms with Great Britain and thai
there has been nauseating amour
of slop written and spoken on the sub
ject within the last year or so, cuts ne
figure. We are as likely to have ou1
next war with England as with an!
other first-class power. We would b.
more likely to, it it were not for tn
fact that England has little stomach
for fight with any nation Of equa
| resources.
There is no more excuse for shown.

lions than there would be in the cas-
of any other nation.
What is the explanation?-Dail,

President Schurman of the Philip
pine commission made this statement
as an excuse for the treaty by which
we recognize existing conditions in
the sulu Islands, and agree not to
modest them under the American flag:
"Polygamy is part of their religion,
and slavery, about which so much is
being said just now, is mild form of
teudal bondage" Verify, here we
have combination of one of the old
pleaders for mormonism and an apollo
gist for African slavery. Is it not
exactly what they said? What an in
suit to the immortal Lincoln and to
the men in blue, who died that all men
under the starry banner should be
free, is this trucking and bartering
for the privilege ~ of hosting the
stars and stripes over these disreput-
able islands!
