LATEST FROM MANILA.
Gen. Lawt0n Has Been Dispatched to Cap
ture MOrOng Sultan Of Sulu Pre-
pairing to Fight Americans.

Washington, June Gin dispatching
Gen. Lawton to capture Morong Maj.
Gen. Otis is understood to have the
purpose to destroy or drive back the
strong force of insurgents which have
been operating from that section
against the Pasig river line. There is
no expectation here that Lawton's col
umn will go far from rivers or lakes
upon which supplies can be carried
to him. The authorities appreci-
ate the extreme difficulty of a cam
paign during the rainy season
and all they expect is that the
American forces will make short
incursions into the enemy's country,
breaking up any large organizations
which may establish themselves in the
vicinity of Manila, especially near
Laguna de Bay. 1t is apparent from
the line which Lawton is following
and the dispatch of the Washington
troops to Morong that it is still hoped
to get the insurgents between that
point, Taytay and Antipolo and the
lake hemmed in SO that they can be
destroyed or captured.

Sngaport by way Of Sandaken, with view Of

he has stored on the island Of Siasi
and he Is raising force Of Sepoys

of the sultan to fight the United States Is the
result of Bray's mission to Singapore In April,

FEDERATION OF LABOR.
Important Report of the Committee c
 Legislation.

Important Report of the Committee or
 Legislation.
 The mast important matter at the session of the Connecticut branch oi the Federation of Labor in Bridgeport Tuesday afternoon was the report of | George A. Parsons of Hartford chair man of the legislative committee. He gave detailed report of the work per formed by the committee during the session of the general assembly which began January 4, 1899. The committee selected twenty-eight bills which it con- sidered to be of dirtct interest to the wage -earners of the state, and advo- cated or opposed each according to its proposed effect.
 The bills which the committee favor ed and which they succeeded in having passed were as follows: Regulating sweat shops; prohibiting coercion of employees; amending the mechanics lien law so that lien may be placed within sixty days after service ends; for | inspection of lighting of factories; reg ulating bake shops; providing for any l legal rate of interest on chattel mort gages; act making more definite the law regulating labor of children.
 Among the measures the committee opposed and aided in defeating were bills to permit the employment of chil- dren over twelve and under fourteen years of age during school vacations; a bill framed with the intent to abolish the labor bureau; three bills on foreign attachment, or factorizing wages, so as to knock out the present exemption and reduce it from $50 to S10; bill entitled Judgment Debtor Act" or "Imprison- ment for Debt"
 Every bill opposed by this committee was defeated, but some good bills which it favored were rejected. Among these were a bill providing for equal representatin according to population; the free text book bill; bill providing for reduced fares on street railways dur ing certain house of the day, from to a. m. and from to z p. m. for labor ing men. Another bill which was strongly advocated was one requiring that all accidents in factories be report ed to the inspector of factories. This bill was strongly opposed by manufact- urers.
 Another bill was one regulating the liabilities of employers in case of acci- dent to employees. At the present time no provision is made in Connecticut while in Massachusetts and New York state the employer is liable to the ex- tent of $5,000.
 A bill for reducing street railway fares one-half for chool children was also defeated

 Yesterday afternoon about 5;30 o'clock one of the Winchester companys heavi- est trucks got wedged in the car tracks opposite the Graduate club, and it was nearly twenty minutes before it was freed. The truck was loaded with over half a hundred large boxes of cartridges and it made a very heavy load. The truck was so fixed that 1t obstructed the tracks of both the Winchester ave nue and the Fair Haven and Westvile roads, and for nearly block cars were stalled
 A very large crowd congregated and it looked as though something besides horse power would be necessary before the truck could be moved.
