Sweeney, Hardley, and Streets were ar
rested by Policemen Latchford Herbert,
Clinton, and Lee and locked up at No.
. station. Sweeney was charged with as
sault with intent to kill, and the others
were charged with disorderly conduct.
1t appears that while the four men were
fighting Hardley and Sweeney were getting
the worst of it. They became infurated
and Hardley went off to procure shotgun.
When he returned he gave the weapon to
Sweeney and he fired at Padgett, the
shot taking effect as stated Padgett ap-
peared TO be in a critical condition and
was sent to the hospital in No. patrol
wagon. An examination developed that
while the man was painfully injured his
wounds would not prove fatal.

Quarrel.

An argument over a trivial matter at
an early hour yesterday morning between

shoulders. He was treated at the Wash

sent to his home. AT late hour last night

chased in 1868 by the concern Of Jo-
seph Matheson & Co., but We're sub
sequently included in the new onces
sions to Russia, the owners, under the
advice and protection Of Mr.. Hurst,
the British consul, sent workmen to
fence in the tract. After the work was
begun, a dozen CoSsacks from the
Russian consulate appeared on the
scene and forcibly elected the work,
men. The captain of the British Sec
oEd-class gunboat Woodlark, especial
ly designed for river service, after con-
sulting with Mr.. Hurst, landed a party
of bluejackets and moved the Wood
lark within firing distance of the Rus
sian consulate. For q time q fight
seemed imminent, but nothing further
occurred. The ~bluejackets are now
guarding the property. The British
tEird-class gunboat Esk has been dis
patched TO Hankow from this port.
Great Britain is evidently determined
to uphold British rights. /.

ACTING AS SPIES
TREACHEROUs FILIPINos WHO
FOOL THE AMERICANS.
Entrusted by the Americans
With OmciaI Positions on Account
of Their Supposed Friendship Use
Their Offices to Get Information
for the RebeIs-Great Majority OF
Natives sympathixe With the IN
surgents-Unusual Vigilance at
Manila Indicates Expected Trou-
BILE.

Manila, Aug. %, via Hongkong, Aug
29.--Recent events have proved some
what discouraging TO o Gals VINO are
trying to accompany war with a pollcy
Of Cancellation. Two new municlpai
governments have collapsed through
the treachery of the mayors. To-day
the mayor of San Pedro Macati, who
was elected by the people under the
direction of Prof. Dean Worcester, or
the United States advisory commission
for the Philippines, was brought to
Manila and lodged in Jail. The United
States officers at San Pedro Macati
found that he was using his office in
securing information for the Filipino
army. Disguised insurgents were
helping him.
The mayor of Balinag was also ar
rested and confined in the same prison.
The Americans caught him passing be-
tween the line Of the two armies VITA
an discriminating document, which the
authorities secured. Another promi-
nent native mayor is under suryell-
lance. When the election at linus,
which Gen. Lawton and Prof. Worces-
ter engineered, was announced, the
Americans inquired as to the where
Gbouts of the peoples choice and were
Informed that he was in prison at
Bilibid, where the authorities nad
placed him on suspicion Of being a rev.
olutionist. He was released and In
stalled as mayor.
Such events and conditions tend to
give color to the assertions of foreign
residents acquainted with the native
character, who insist that a great ma
jority Of the natives sympathize with
the insurgents and elect o Gals whom
they know to be revolutionists. For
two meeks Manila has been policed at
night with unusual vigilance. Appar-
emily the authorities are expecting
trouble. The trend of affairs tends to
make the policy Of leniency unpopular
among the Americans. When they
abandoned Morong they burned the
whole town.
Col. Search, of the Twelfth infantry,
who is in command at Angeles, is
cynical regarding Filipino friendliness.
Instead of allowing the natives to re-
turn to the town as heretofore, he has
ordered his men to shoot all men try
ing to pass the lines and TO turn back
all women and children. He recently
gave the amigos in the town an oppor-
tunity to prove their professed friend
ship, putting them to work at digging
trenches and cleaning the streets, but
this only displeased them. The fore
most citizen of Angeles, a lawyer, who
had welcomed the Americans with a
great show of cordiality, was found
communicating with the insurgents.
The Americans promptly marched him
off to San Fernando to be tried by
court martial.
