Burned by Rebels.
MANILA, June IA thousand refu-
gees, who are attempting to- come to
Manila, are being turned back by the
authorities, who are fearful of the city
becoming over populated, causing a
pestilence and famine. Many of the
refugees tell of being forced to give up
their supplies to the insurgents army.
They are afraid to return to the enemy's
ines on account of possible attacks.
The insurgent government is to issue
an order for all the military forces to
discard their uniforms and wear only
white. in order to deceive army.
The rebels made an attack on the
friendly fowl of Macabebe, and after
driving the inhabitants out burned the
town.
Lieutenant Fred w. Pearce of the
Sixth artillery committed suicide here
this morning. His friends say his mind
was affected by a recent sunstroke.

General Halls column is encamped at

across the Binangonan. found it imprac-
ticable to form a Gordon and the insurg-
ents, with the exception of a hundred or
two, escaped through the mountains
after General Pho del Pillar, dragging
their battery by buffaloes at night. A
few, however, may be trapped. The
Washington troops have returned to
Pasig, but the program of the other
troops is uncertain. The present ex-
petition shows the difficulty which is
encountered by an army which must
depend upon wagon trains in catching
b%arefooted bandits in their own noun
tains and also gives proof that the rebels
do no intend to fight battles.

For mrs GRANT.
More Testimony Given in the Long
Drawn Out Divorce Case.
Mrs. Grant Specifically Denies Statements
Of Husbands Witness.


The Grant case was on again today
before Judge Rogers in the appellate di-
vision fthe supreme court. The TAX
ing of testimony i'm chief i'm behalf Of
the doctor closed yesterday afternoon
and this forenoon Mrs. Grant put in her
testimony I'm rebuttal and her attorney.
Franklin Il. owen. called witness
named Barney for cross-eXamination.
Mr.. Barney, Mr. owen thought. cnang-
ed several OF his statements on cross
examination. Judge Rogers put Barney
through a very close exa minatiOn as TO
affairs at the Fenner hotel. where Wit
ness claimed TO have been on the night
o fthe Doctors celebrated visit 10 that
much advertised hOstelry. His honor
asked the witness also about the hour
he was at the hotel, but the latter
seemed 10 have no recollection about
the time at all. Mr.. Owen at once call
ed stable keeper, who fatty contra
dicted Barney on two points Three po-
lice officers OF the Seventh station were
also called as witnesses.
Mrs. Grant was recelcd and denied
; ir taok bundle in.o th~ room the
Ccr.ul and III" bnls wanna we're in.
She denied taking the nightdress and
other articles that had previously been
produced in, court 10 the hotel. Mrs.
Grant further testified that she never
heard until she saw the doctor at Fen
ners the accusation that she had gone
TO the Revere Hotel with a man. She
denied IL. Witness was asked q good
many questions about he conduct at
the Everett wedding and admitted a
man put his arm around her 10 waltz.
but said the man soon took IL away
when he saw how fndigsint she was a
number OF things sworn to by the doc
tor and his witnesses were specifically
denied
Judge Rogers asked Mrs. Grant IL the
doctor had courteds her at her fathers
house, and the reply was Yes, for
seven weeks" The doctor ghe said,
was a most earnest and gallant suitor
and occasionally took dinner and sup
per at her fathers during that time.
Mrs. Grant seemed more anxious TO
give this testimony than any other,
and answered such question with
promptness and most pleasantly. Most
OF the courtship was i'm New York
state, where the doctor then practiced
medicine. Witness said she was mar
red when IL years old, aud the reason
she went 10 Attleboro To get married
was because her parents objected TO
her marriage, as they thought she was
too young.
Mrs. Grant denied that she was a
party to any scheme 10 lead her hus-
band TO commit the crime of adultery
with which she now charges him. She
was first told 10 go TO Fennes's by her
mother.
Mrs. Grant this afternoon said that
some one had put dates To her letters
that were inconsistent with their con-
tents and she denied moving OF any de-
tective or any one else being hired to
shadow the doctor since the Fenner in
cdent.
