CASTELAR'S FUNERAL.
Minister StOrer to Represent Presi-
dent McKinIey-A Family Offended.

MADRID. May 27.-President Mckinley
has telegraphed 10 Bellamy Storer, United
States minister at Madrid, to represent him
at the funeral of Senor Castelar,. The body
arrived here at o'clock this morning. There
was great demonstrations at the stations
along the route from Murcia to this city.
Senor Castelar's body is lying in state
in the Chamber of Deputies tonight
When the body arrived at the station a
dispute arose between the family of the
dead statesman and the government repre-
sentatives. the family protesting against the
wording of the decree ordering that the
expenses Of the obsequies be borne by the
public, as the preamble seemed to indicate
that the only merit of the deceased was
that he died poor. They also disputed the
right Of Premier Silvela to act as chief
mourner, and declared that they would not
accept the offer of the government TO de-
fray the funeral expenses. Senior Silvela
replied that the Council of State would con-
slider the matter, but could not alter the
wording of the decree. The body was taken
to the Chamber of Deputies, followed by
Premier Silvela and many generals, includ-
ing General Weyler, all in plain clothes.
The wreaths and other floral offerings filled
three carriages. An enormous crowd fol-
lowed the remains from the station to the
chamber. General Weyler blames the gov
ernment for not paying military honors to
the dead statesman, saying that none had
done more for the army than Senior Cas-
telar.
General Polavieja, minister of war, has
sent circular inviting the generals to at
tend the obsequies attired I'm plain clothes.
To this General Campos has replied that
he will go in uniform, declaring that, as a
Spaniard and general, he regards Senior
CASTELAR, lone of the glories of Spain
ard OF the universe" Many officers of high
rank will follow the example of General
Campos.
AS Senor Castelar's body had begun to
decompose, the coffin was closed, but the
public was admitted TO view the coffin at
this morning. The Republican committee
has decided TO ask all Republicans to as
semble ON the Prado and follow the cortege.

were paid Not one Of them had a re-
ceipt for arms surrendered. but each proved
that he had been connected with the army
in the capacity of a servant. Throughout the
afternoon Colonel Randall and the others
connected with the disbursement of the fund
waited patiently until early in the even
ing the Assembly spies departed out Of pa
tience Colonel Randall believes that when
the paymasters leave the city they will find
that the soldiers in the provinces will re-
ceive the American bounty. which, through
false stories and possibly through the in
timidation of certain Cuban officers, has
been practically refused here.
The English edition of La Lucha pub
fishes an editorial which has caused COM
ment among army officers, melting the men
not TO receive the money; though, strangely,
the Spanish edition of the paper a few
days ago, advised the loyal Cubans to ac-
cept the American terms. The payment will
continue tomorrow and II is considered
likely that more Cubans will accept. The
applicants in most cases so far are little
more than boys and are mainly those whom
the Cubans call "blockaders,"N and who
joined the army after the American block
ade of Havana made food scarce. The
names o; four of these appeared on the list
and each man was sent to bring an officer
to swear TO his identity and to his service.
Where all appeared to be aboveboard the
men were paid on this proof even though
their names do not appear on the lists.

ULTIMATUM FOR FILIPINcs.
Must Surrender Internationally IL
They wish to Return.

They wish to Return.
NEW YORK, May IA special to the
Herald from Washington says: when you
desire to re-enter the American military
lines come prepared for an unconditional
surrender. Otherwise you will not be ad-
mitted.'' This, in substance. it is said at the
War Department, is the parting message
Aguinaldo's so-called peace ENJOYS received
when they left Manila on their way to
Aguinaldo's headquarters. If our commits
sioners have not already received instruc-
tons to adhere to this decision. they will
receive them at once. The foolhardness of
further negotiations with irresponsible lead
ers of defiant rebels Is at last fully appre-
ciated by administration officials. The insur-
gents must be whipped into submission.
THE President, it is said, is now Of this
opinion He regrets that he is unable to
share in the optimistic opinions of Mr.
Schurman, chairman Of the commission,
that the Filipino envoys will speedily come
back to accept in full our own terms. Mr.
Schurman expressed similar views imme-
diately after the first peace conference
more than three weeks ago. and thereby
caused the President to fall into the mis-
take of expecting peace at once. The fact
that the authorities have again taken up
the question of sending additional troops
to the Philippines is good indication that
they consider the recent peace negotiations
failure. The Twenty-fourth Infantry (col-
ored) has been slated for service in the Phil
ippines, in addition to those previously de-
cided upon. Other regiments are also being
talked of"

of friendly sentiments. and Commissioner
Schurman responded in a happy speech.
1.-THE leading Filipinos of Manila are do
ing much toward creating a friendly senti-
ment, and are anxious to have commerce
restored and the ports opened once more.
Great crops of sugar and hemp of the var
ious islands are now being marketed.
Although desultory firing continues along
the skirmish lines, the insurgents are so
broken, discouraged and divided that it is
impossible for them to offer strong resis-
tance to our forces. Aguinaldo's last pro-
clamation shows feeling Of hopelessness,
although he calls upon his countrymen to
fight to death. His cabinet, however, does
not show the same spirit. but is anxious
to secure peace on any terms. Its ennis
series. who returned yesterday. are ex-
pected back next week. General Luna's re-
ported weak defiance of Aguinado is not
considered important here"

NORFOLK, Va. May 27.-Amidst the
booming of cannon and the screaming of
steam whistles from tugs, bay steamers and
ocean liners. the captured Spanish cruiser
Reina Mercedes arrived in port to-day and
accompanying her was flotilla Of thirty
six tugs, all profusely decorated with flags.
Cannon saluted as she was towed through
the harbor and the tugboats kept their
whistles in an almost continuous scream
from the time she rounded Lambert's point
until the navy yard was reached. 1t was
a perfect din, as noisy a welcome as pos
siby could be desired. Thousands of peo-
pie witnessed the procession through the
harbor, they being all along the water front
on both sides of the river and upon house.
tops. She was given tumultuous welcome
as she came up the harbor. A wealth of
flags and bunting was flying from the es-
cort. Every craft tied down the whistle
lever and there was a babel of siren notes.
The Mercedes was saluted by every passing
steamer and acknowledged each greeting
by blast of her whistle. The steamer
carries on her deck small engine used
for pumping out her bilge. and to this has
been attached a whistle made out of six
inch shells. The monitor Amphitrite is ly-
ing off Hospital point and when the trophy
came up the United States ''jackies'
swarmed up on the rigging and let loose
three cheers, which could be plainly heard
on both shores, which were lined with thou
sands of people from surrounding cities and
States. Slowly the procession, amid deaf

she was the only one of the Spanish yes

was grievously mangled by the shots which

effect. One of these shots, said to have
been a twelve-inch from the Texas. struck
the Mercedes on the starboard quarter, just
behind the forward SPONSOR on the main
deck and burst when about three feet in

MANILA, May 27.-General Macarthur is
in favor of the experiment of enlisting the
Macabebes against their old enemies, the
Tagals. A delegation Of the leading Mac
abebes has visited the general, and the
spokesman read address assuring the
American commander of the friendship of
the Macabebes and of their willingness TO
transfer their allegiance from Spain TO the
United States They complained the Tagals
murdered them and burned their villages
and they asked to be protected and given
arms to protect themselves. The Macabebes
have greatly assisted in posting the Amer
leans on the country and the postiones of
the enemy. General Macarthur would arm
a hundred Of these men and use them as
scouts, and if the experiment proved sue
cessful, he would enlist more of them.

ceeded to Zamboanga. The troops there
were put aboard the Leon XII, the Puerto
Rico. the Uranas and the Dos Hermanos,
and the three last named sailed for Spain.
The insurgents agreed not to modest the
Spaniards during the evacuation. The Leon
XIII entered Manila harbor this evening
with her flags flying in honor of Gen. Mon
tero Rios and with the officers of the garri-
son and their families on board. The insur-
gents. 1t is reported. were in possession of
Zamboanga when the Spaniards left, and it
