science. About 10 days ago a valuable
pug dog, the property of man resid-

Salaries of Presiden Is.

Very few persons would suspect how
small the salaries of presidents of re-
public are, when the enormous sums
crowned heads receive are taken into
considerat ton. The foreigner often
thinks the $4,000 salary of the president
of the United States is merely a joke
and that he receives ten times as much
in reality, but the same foreigner may not
know that the French president, in d
country where the wealthiest monarchs
once reigned. receives only $l20,OO0 year.
The president of the little Andorra repub-
lie contents himself with a salary of SIS
a year and the president of the Swiss re-
public must be satisfied with $1,000

Detective Krueson of the Pinkerton
agency, it is said, has given up the Piuck-

no effort 10 conceal his identity. In fact,
he asked that his name be made public
shortly after his arrival in the city.

Of the capture Of Iloilo by the American
forces is given in a cablegram from Manila.
The United States forces under Brigader-
General Miller captured Iloilo. capital Of the
Island of PanaY and seat Of the so.called
government Of the Yiscayan Federation, on
Saturday last after heavy bombardmeut
The rebels set the town on FIRE before
evacuating it, but the American troops ex-
tinguished the flames. There were no casu-
alties on the American side.
The United States gunboat Petrol arrived
at Manila late last evening with dispatches
from Brigader. General Marcus p. Miller to
Major-General otis, announcing that lloilo
had been taken by the combined military
and naval forces on Saturday morning.
General Miller, on receipt Of his instruc-
tions from Manila, sent native commissioners
ashore from the United States transport St.
Paul with a communication for the rebel
Governor Of IloilO calling on him to sur
render within a time stated and warning
him not TO make demonstration in the
interval

Maolos is believed to be slated for the next
attack by the United States troops and fleet

The natives have been congregeting at
that point since the Caloocan fight in greater
numbers than anywhere else. General Otis
policy is to keep the rebels from gathering
any large force.
Color is lent to the rumOr by orders re-
ceived by the cruiser Charleston's com
mander to-day. The orders were to move up
the coast and take position directly off
Mslolos, the insurgent capital" At the
hour this dispatch is filed the cruiser has
taken her position and probably awaits a
signal for action. 1t is estimated that she is
eight miles off Malolos, but can get nearer.
General Otis will probably make move

ment will pursue the same tactics employed
in former battles

miles northwest of Caloocan, and addressed
