Is the only logical leader Of the DEM
ocracy." 1t VIII be remembered that
George Fred Williams Is the same in
dividual who. in the Chicago conven-
ton. pledged himself that the old Bay
State would give It's electoral vote to
Bryan In 1896. George Fred wanted to
be on the ticket for Vice president.
But the point about George Fred
, Williams regarding Bryan as the Ideal
leader Is hardly In harmony with the
Registers exclusive special from New
York on the day previous. announcing
that Andrew Carnegie, Q. H. P. Bel
mont and other gold men and eastern
millionaires." are going to back up
Bryan with their millions OH condition
that he would abandon the paramount
feature of the Chicago platform. George
Fred is a rank free silverite, though,
unlike some of those who are trying
to find an "anti-expansion" candidate
for the presidency, is not inconsistent.
He Is "anti-expanslon" and free silver,

Mr.. Bryan hates. but ''nnti-e8pansion-

TROOPS REST.

After Daya of Hard Fighting They Have
Brief Respite.
MANILA, March ell a. m.-Gen.
eral Macarthur and his army are rest
ing on the plain beyond Marilao, after
three days scrambling in the brush,
fording rivers and charging in the .siaz-
ing sun. The men are tired, but in
splendid spirits.
The heat was intense, being 80 degrees
on the coast and fully 100 degrees in
the interior; it made the Americans suf-
fer a great deal. In spite of the heat,
however, every man was eager to pro-
coed towards the enemy.
A detachment of 96 Filipino prison
eYs was escorted into Manila during the
day: Their appearance caused great in
terest, as they were marched from the
railroad depot to the prison.
The rebels have unloaded about 500
men from train, half mile in front
of General MacArthur's forces, with
the object of reinforcing the Filipino
garrisons at Bulacan, and Guiguinto,
on either side Of the railroad leading to
Malolos.
The fact that the railroad is in opera
ton from here to our front facilitates
the transportation Of supplies to the
troops. Before the break in the road
was repaired the transportation of sup
plies was very uncertain.
All is quiet in front of the lines of
Generals Ovenshine and Hall.
A battalion of the California regi-
ment which has been landed at Enrique,
Island of Negros, has been received
with every manifestation of joy on the
part of the natives.
The command of the Island of Negros
has been formally transferred from Gen
eral Miller to Colonel Won Volzat of the
Eighteenth infantry.

WASHINGTON, March 29.-The follow
ing dispatch has been received from
General Otis by the war department:
"Severe fighting yesterday afternoon
beyond Marilao. Brilliant charge by
South Dakota, led by Frost against
famed troops of Aguinaldo, brought
from Mslalos. Repulsed enemy with
slaughter Adjutant Lien and Lieuten-
ants Adams and Morrison, and four en-
listed men Of the regiment killed.
Lieutenant McClelland and % enlisted
wounded. Losses yesterday mostly con-
fined to this regiment"
Partial destruction of railroads, not re-
paired, impedes MacArthur's progress.
Supply railway trains have now reached
Marilao, and Macarthur is pushing on.
Our small gunboats are in Bulacan
river, where great execution was done
yesterday. They will relieve pressure
on MacArthur's front materially.
Troops in excellent condition and spirits.
Proclamation signed Luna, general-in-
chief insurgent forces, directs that all
towns abandoned be burned. In conse-
quence thereof, much country north in
flames. OTIS"
The above dispatch was received in
Washington at $3.50 a. m. March %. 1t
is observed that it refers only to the
fighting on March q, nothing being
said about the operations of Tuesday.
General Greeley, chief signal officer,
has received dispatch from Manila,
which is confined to routine affairs.
