LOCAL ISSUES CONTROLLED.
Result of the Election for Ohio Munic
pal Officers.

Result of the Election for Ohio Munici-
pal Officers.
CINCINNATI, April 5.-Elections were
held in Ohio during the day for mu-
nicipal and township officers. While
local issues usually control these spring
elections, there were other influences in
some places. At Cleveland there was a
decisive Democratic victory on the head
of the ticket only, the result being an
echo of last years senatorial contest
when Mayor McKisson was the candi-
date of the boiling Republicans and the
Democrats in the legislature against
Senator Hanna. At Columbus Repub-
ican mayor was elected for the first
time in 10 years. At Cincinnati the
Republicans have plurality of 1000.
The present Democratic mayor was
elected two years ago by almost as large
plurality. At Toledo an independent
Republican was
Elected on Pingree Issues
assisted by factional complications. At
Dayton the Democrats made municipal
gains, but the Republicans gained in
the township. The Western Reserve
maintains its usual Republican MAORI
ties, with some gains over those of for
mer April elections, notably at Youngs-
town, Warren, Cadiz, Delaware and
other cities in Northeastern Ohio. In
the smaller cities, as well as in the
rural districts, the Republicans claim
gains. At Hamilton. the Democrats
maintained their majorities, also at
Lima, Newark, Circleville, Upper San
dusky, Millersburg and Vanwert. Al
Canton, the home of Mckinley, James
Robertson (Rep.) was elected mayor by
10 plurality, a change from the present
Democratic administration.

Many Rumors Afioat Pointing to an Early
Collapse of the Insurrection.
MANILA, April 4.-The American
troops under General Macarthur are
still resting at Malolos, where every
thing is quiet. Hostilities elsewhere,
so far as officially reported, have been
limited during the last "a hours to an
occasional exchange Of shots between
the insurgents and the troops forming
the lines of General Lawton and Gen
eral Hall, extending from the water
works to La Lonia. But this shooting
had been just active enough to make
the lives of the soldiers a burden and
to compel the officers to sleep in
trenches, clothed and in readiness to
repel possible attacks. Most Americans
are becoming convinced that the
Backbone of Insurgent Opposition
is broken. There are numerous rumors
pointing to an early collapse of the in
surrection. One of these is that Gen
eral Pho del Pillar, the best fighter
among the Filipino officers, will desert
Aguinaldo and give his support to the
Americans. The Spaniards, reasoning
from their experience Of the natives, re-
fuse to believe that the rebellion is any
where near put down. They declare
that the Filipinos will not take their
defeat at Malolos, with the loss of the
city and the removal of their so-called
government, seriously to heart. On the
contrary, the Spaniards predict that the
insurgents will hover near the Amer
lean lines, bothering them as much as
possible, and when attacked in force
dissolve, only to IS
, Reappear at Other Points.
A priest and two members of the 80
called Filipino congress, who hid them
selves in the woods during the fighting
which preceded the capture of Malolos,
have returned there and declared that
1000 of the Filipino soldiers were anx-
ions to give up fighting and would do
SO but for their officers, who kept them
under arms. The whole country be-
tween Malolos and Caloocan is now full
| of friendlies, women, children and old
people, who are returning to their
homes, carrying white flags. The
Americans are trying to gain the conf
denceof the inhabitants by proving to
them that if they will return and at
tend to their ordinary work peacefully
no harm will befall them.

SERVE THROUGH FEAR.

Philippine Commission Makes a Report
to the President.
WASHINGTON, April 5.-The princi-
pal subject under discussion at the cab
met meeting was long cablegram from
Mr.. Schurman, chairman of the Phil
ippine commission, now at Manila,
which was read by Secretary Hay. The
part of the message which attracted
most attention was that which indicated
that Aguinaldo's power over his follow
ers was largely based upon coercion and
fear of violence in case they opposed
him. This message, taken in connec-
ton with recent information received
from General Otis has led to the belief
among members of the cabinetthat the
end of the trouble with the Fihpinos is
near at hand

Nearly Four Feet Thick and Will Proba.
bly, Hold for Month.
DULUTH, April 4.-There are $50 miles
of solid ice stretching down Lake Su-
perior from this end, and the same con-
dition prevails from the eastern end of
the big lake. Men at work putting in
the dock of the Duluth. Missabe &
Northern road in the upper harbor find
they must cut through A inches of clear
blue ice to reach the water underneath.
Vessel men are now saying that if ships
reach here by May Is it will be all any
one can hope for. This is really calam-
itous situation, for this year above all
others there is need of an early opening
of navigation. There will be all the
work for vessels that they can possibly
do, and the season will evidently be a
month shorter than usual.

Does Not Look For Prolonged Fighting

NEW YORK, April 4.-Major General
Merritt, in an interview, said:
The news from Manila is satisfac-
tory. Aguinaldo does not seem to know
when he is whipped. If he should be
captured he would be treated as pris-
oner of war. There will be no cruel
measures"
s.Do you. look for prolonged fightingy
mo, the Filipinos are not prepared
for that sort of thing. We shall not
have repetition of our American In
