He found that Fowler's company of the
Thirty-third had occupied the town for two
days.
The insurgents, General Aldrinajo COM

Colonel Bell proposes to follow the Fill
pinos until he can bring about a decisive
fight or they are scattered.
Mangalaren was strongly fortified with
rifle pits comman nding the roads, but the

Manila, November 27.-(5:55 p. m.)-Three
hundred Spanish prisoners who escaped
from their captors before the American ad-
vance, including civil officials of rank who
had been in the hands of the Filipinos for
more than year and many officers, have
arrived at Manila during the past week.
Francisco Reyes brought 100 of them from
General Wheaton. They were motley ap-
PARALLEL and bearded company. Some We're
Ill and had to be carried from Tayug to San
Fabian in army wagons. delegation of
these former prisoners have visited Major
General Otis in order to thank him for his
hospitality, which included the furnishing
of food and clothing. Senor Jamarillo, the
Spanish commissioner, is making arrange
ments to send them to Spain on board of
Spanish transports
Buencamino has been lodged in eomfor-
table quarters at the police station with
his family. Other persons are not allowed
to see him. He is classed as being the
most slippery parsonage connected with
the insurrection. He was a colonel In the
Spanish army and a traitor to SPAIN At
the time of The first insurrection he tried
to sell out to the F1lippnos and his pres
ent Imprisonment exciteS no sympathy
among his own people, while the Spaniards
think it is mistaken leniency for the Amer

Luneta, the fate dealt out to better men
in the anti-Spanish uprising.

Gently christened at Tarlac with great
ceremony, died and was buried at Dayam-
bam in Aguinaldos flight
General Wheaton reports that natives
have threatened violence to Aguinaldo's
mother, who is now sheltered in a con-
vent with a guard. General Otis has or

ter the Contest anG Thinks
the Alabamian Will Win

Washington, November 27.-(Special)-
up in earnest today.
All the avowed candidates are here with
their lieutenants. Mr.. Richardson opened
headquarters at the Metropolitan today,
Mr.. DeArmond at the Varnum, Sulzer at
Chamberlains, and Mr.. Bankhead at the
Riggs.
The situation has further become COM
plicated by the attempt which is going to
be made by the friends of Mr.. Bailey to
bring him into the fight again. Mr.. Swan
son and others of his intimate associates
members and pledging those they could to
vote for Bailey.
Mr.. Swanson said: 81 think the best way
out of the tangle is to elect Mr.. Bailey, and
If we have enough votes to nominate him it
is my opinion that he can be persuaded to
reconsider his decision and become our
floor leader again."
Until the Texan arrives, however, the sit
uation will remain in this uncertain state.
1t is not generally believed that he will re-
consider his determination expressed last
session and reiterated during the summer
that nothing could force him to be can
didate.
Mr.. Underwood does not think Bailey
will enter the race, and this evening ex-
pressed 1t as his firm belief that Mr. Bank
head would fall heir to major portion OF
Bailey's votes and would secure the nomi-
nation. A. W.. B.

A GREAT WORK UNFINISHED
His Wife Was at the Bedside and is
Frustrated With Grief-"Royal
Box" Company Will Probably
CANCEL All Engagements

Galveston, Tex, November 27-Char1es
Coghlan, the distinguished English actor
and author, died here today of gastritis,
aged Sc years. He had been i'll in Galveston

did not appear, owing to Illness. Physi-
clans were summoned, and afterward an
nounced that the actor was suffering with
acute gastritis. His condition remained un-
changed until this morning, when a violent
change for the worse occurred, followed
shortly by DEATH
Charles Coghlan was born in France of
English and Irish parentage ifty-six years
ago., In his early life he manifested a
marked fondness for the stage, and al
though educated for the bar. he never fol-
lowed that profession. He became an actor
when quite a young man, and his rise was
rapid and pronounced both in Europe and
America. He was the author of several
successful plays, among them being "Joce-
lyn." His recent dramatization- of 1.-THE
Royal Box" which he presented with his
own company, was one of his most artistic
and successful ventures.
Mr. Coghan has recently employed
great deal of time upon dramatization of
VANITY Fair, which was to have been
produced by his daughter next season, and
the task was near completion when his
death cut it short. 1t is understood that
THE Royal Box company will cancel all
future engagements.

Havana, November 27-Nothlng Is known
at headquarters In this division nor in Gem
eral Lees to justify the report published in
the United States and cabed back here that
a thousand armed Cuban insurgents have
taken to the woods in the province of Pinar
del Rio and that great uprising against
the Americans has been prepared for
Thanksgiving day Indeed, the story Is a1t-
solutely discredited by the American au-
thorities who say 1t is impossible that any,
thing of the kind should have happened
without knowledge of it coming to some
army post.
Runners of a more or less alarming char
acter have for some time been plentiful
around Havana. 1t Is said, for instance,
that this general or that, is about to take
to the woods, and 1t is apparently true that
certain men are nursing programmes hos
tile to the American administration. Bue
the spread of the campaign of education is
doing good deal to offset the influence of
such people and in any event, no trouble
whatever Is likely to occur until after cons
gress meets. -
Something Must be Done
1t is a fact, however, that many Ameri-
cans here believe that II nothing is done
toward giving the Cubans some definite as.
surances, if not precise date, regarding
the independence of the island, there will
be rising of some sort, although opinions
differ widely with regard to what it will
amount to. Some believe that the malcon-
tents will be practically bandits, easily con-
trolled by a few troops. Others hold that
the rising would be formidable and would
call for a large American force.
This morning there was a gathering of
1900 people at the cemetery to commence
rate the anniversary of the execution of
eight Cuban students by Spanish volunteers
in 1871. Many clubs we're represented.
Father Deval, who celebrated mass, spoke
briefly, declaring that the execution was an
act of murder
In the course of his remarks he said that
he himself was more a Cuban than a
priest, and ever ready to sacrifice life for
the independence of Cuba"
A procession was formed at the School of
Medicine and moved to the Punta where
the memorial stone was unveiled.
Last evening 500 Catalonans ran through
the streets of Vedado with standards, cry
ing: "Vive Cuba Libre," and "Vive Cata-
lonia," and "vive Maxine Gomez"
Many citizens joined in the cheering
evoked by the cry for free Cuba
The flag over the Spanish consulate was
at half mast in honor of the commemora-
tion ceremonies, Senior Sagrario saying
that SpaniaGds, no less than Cubans, de-
plored the awful occurrence.
