PARIS, Feb. 18.-M. Felix Faure,
president of the republic OF France, died
at 10 o'clock after an illness Of three
hours It has been known for some
time that his heart was weak, but the
first intima.:on that he was sick was
given at $50 o'clock, when message
was dispatched to the premier, M. Du-
puy, announcing that the president was
ill. M. Dupuy Immediately repaired to
the Elysee. All medical efforts proved
futile and the president died on the
stroke Of 10.
The flag on the Elysee was im1nedi-
ately lowered to half mast and the news
was dispatched to all the officers and
members Of the cabinet. General Eur
linden, military governor of Paris, the
grand chancellor of the Legion of
Honor, the prefect of the Seine, the pre-
feet of the police of Paris and the presi-
dents of the senate and chamber of
deputies, promptly arrived at the Ely
see. The report spread rapidly through
the city and large crowds soon assem-
bled in the vicinity Of the palace.

Attempt Made to Burn the Quarters of
the First Washington.
MANILA, Feb. 22.-The natives of the
village of Paco made bold attempt
during the night to burn the quarters of
the First Washington volunteers by
setting fire to the huts adjoining their
quarters in the rear. Fortunately the
wind changed at the moment the fire
was discovered, and famed by stiff
breeze the flames spread in the opposite
direction, destroying fully 90 shacks
and houses opposite the ruins of the
church. The incendiaries escaped.
Mysterious signals were frequently
made along the enemy's lines during
the night, and this led to the belief that
an attack had been arranged, but moth
ing happened. The rebels are leaving
the vicinity of San Pedro Macati in
small parties and are reported to be
moving toward Singalon.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-The cabinet
at its meeting discussed the message re-
ceived from General Otis at Manila and
reached the conclusion that the situa-
tion generally in the Philippines was
considerably improved. From other
sources it is learned that the insurgent
leaders have admitted that when the
United States forces are reinforced by
the troops now nearing Manila, their
chances of success will be greatly re-
duced. This gives the administration
much encouragement, and it is gener'
ally believed that the complete subju.
cation of the insurgents will be mat.
