on Monday both planning mills were
notified that power would be furnished
for running the machinery only during
half day. The electric lights along
the road to the long wharf have burned
only an hour or two each evening, ow-

The dry spell Is having its effect on
the cane and some difficulty Is met
with in auming cane from the upper

Senate Committee Fixes Ship Flag Day
January /.

January l.
WASHI HINGTON-While the Commit
tee on Commerce of the Senate today
refused to add any of the other emer-
genCy legislation which was urged for
Hawaii to the bill extending the navi-
cation laws, 1t did find reason to ex-
tend the time during which vessels
purchased by the citizens of Hawaii
are eligible for American register. In
stead OF making the date at which the
laws OF the United States should apply.
July 1st, as did the House, bill, II was
decided to set the date at January ],
1899, which allows several vessels
bought after the passage of the annex
alton resolution by Congress TO secure
American register In fact, it was
stated in the Hourse during the debate
that Hawaiian register was given 20
several ships as late as December Is,
1898. There Is chance that this ac-
ton will be met by the House with a
firm refusal to reCede from its posi-
tion, and the result may be that the
lobby OF shipowners here may mold
out until the end of the session.

poses. Is really fort Il was strongly
defended. and 1t was thopght that here
the fillpinos might attempt TO make
stand but after the capture Of the
town 1t was found that the war ships
had made the place too hot for the
natives and they had abandoned the
position without a struggle. Barri-
eades had been erected at the place
where the halabon road crosses the
dine OF the Dagupan Railway in tho
center Of tne town. These had bees
torn TO pieces In many places by the
fire from the war ships and land bat
terles
AS the twentieth Kand First Mon
,ana regin ents entereu the town from
the south some Of the fleeing natives
set fire 10 the huts, whose roofs are
made Of nipa, thinking to start con-
fiagration which would destroy the
place. In this they were disappointed,
however. as ,he Americans extinguish-
I'D the nre.
The losses Of the Americans were
slight, but the enemy's were large, both
in klled and wounded Most OF the
casualties to the Filipinos were caused
by shrapnel, the screaming and awful
effect OF which caused terror among
the. natives
Among the American wounded Is
Colonel Bruce Wallace OF the First
Montana Infantry.
After the Americans were IN posses
sion Of the town IL was found there
was only one house IN town that had a
fiag-s,aif This belonged to Mr. Hig-
gins. an Enghshman, who is president
oil the Jagupan Railway. He loaned
the stan to General Otis, and at $3.50
O'Clock the American flag was floating
over the town. Its appearance was
greeted vita enthusiastic cheering by
the troops.
The insurgent troops were massing
TO .he support Of Aguinaldos forces at
Caloocan and halabon when the fight
ing began. 1t was reported this morn
sng that there were 60O0 rebels at these
two places, among them being the IA
nous Seventy-third Filipino Regiment
which In the last rebellion, killed their
Spanis-. officers and then deserted to
AglIinaldo. Aguinaldo himself Is ut
Marilao, where he is making desperate
attempts to reorganize his shattered
and demoralized forces. What his next
move will be Is unknown.
He cannot go to Malabon, as by so
doing % would again expose his army
to attack from the war ships, which
could easily get within range OF that
place. II Is likely that he will move up
the valley in the direction Of Malolos,
which he constituted the capital of the
<,o-called Philippine republic.

MUST SURRENDER.
Mai. Gen. Otis Had No Message for
Aguinaldo.

Maj. Gen. Otis Had No Message Tor
Aguinaldo.
NEW YORK. Feb. "a sun cable
from Manila says: Leaders OF the
F'ilipinos, including Aguinaldo, have
taken well TO heart the lesson taught
Shem during the past four days and are
now trying diplomacy to end hostilitles
which they started. Judging from the
latest developments, they have iailed
as badly as diplomats as they did as
military strategists, and 1t looks as
though their only course Is to make a
complete submission to American au-
thOrity.
A number OF prominent Filipinos
visited Gen. Otis, military commander
here, for the purpose OF making over
tures for a settlement OF the trouble.
They were received by Gen. Otis, but
his manner was chilling. The deputa-
aiOn were talkatiye, and dwelt upon
the situation from Filipino point OF
view, but they had absolutely nothing
to offer as basis for settlement. They
pressed Gen. Otis for declaration OF
some kind as to what the Filipinos
must concede in order to secure peace,
but his answer dashed their hopes OF
obtaining any terms that would prove
beneficial TO the enemy.
Tell Aguinaldo,' Gen. Otis said &c
them, that | have no message fol
him." and this ended the interview
Those who know Gen. Otis constru'
this as meaning that II AguinaldC
wants TO end the trouble, for which h
alone is responsible, he will have t
treat personally with Gen. Otis ant
make complete submission. He viii
never be recognized as the head OF tn
sO-called Philippine republic and mus
submit simply as an armed rebel.
