Manila, Nov. 2O.-Only frngmentary
reports reach Manila of the operations
north. which when the story Is known,
VIII prove to have been the most re-
markable campaigning the Philippine
war has known. General I.awton'- di-
vision Is spread thlnly over the terri
tory beyond San Jose. where the tele-
graph ends. General Youngs two
regiments of cavalry are continuing
their rapid sweep into the new towns,
and are being showed forward to hold
the towns the cavalry takes. all In a
country whose natural difficulties are
increased indcscribably by tropical
rains, making rivers OF creeks and
swamps OF fields. Wagon transporta-
tion Is supposed TO have been practi-
cnlly abandoned. the American troops
living on captured supplies. and the
little produce the insurgent leyies have
left.
Major Samuel ". Swlgert's squad
ron of the Third cavalry Is reported TO
be engaging greatly superior force
at Pozorrupe, northeast OF Dngupan.
These troops have fought three en-
gagemcnts and are now holding their
position. waiting for relnforcemcnts
II Is believed at headquarters that this
force is covering the retreat of the
insurgeni leaders 80 the Binguct noun.
tnins: that the Insurgents planned to
retreat northeast, along the Tayug
road. which II stocked with store
houses, three of which the Americans
have hnd 10 draw upon en- route. and
that only the lnsurgcnt force had
passed Tayug before the American oc-
cupatlon. the main body OF Aguinaldo's
army being within our lines.

A rough rropo.l.lon frr thc nrltl.n.

London, Nov. 1S.-T'he latest news
from the seat of war in South Africa
Is, from one point of view, favorable to
the British. showing that Kimberley
is able to hold her own against the
Beers, and that Estcourt is in posi-
tion to beat back an attack of the Boer
forces now facing 1t. On the other
hand, the advices pay testimony to the
ceaseless activity of the burghers on
the Free State frontier and their deter
minatlon to cut off relief for Lady
smtk. and, IL possible. to isolate or
capture Estcourt. which is the nearest
town to Ladysmith still held by the
British.
a number of small Bocr commands
from the east and west are converging
on Estcourt and the railroad just
south of that place. The Beers already
aggregate nj least 1000. with n few
guns. which they evidently. from the
entertainments they are throwing up,
mean TO mount on hills dominating any
advance north from Estcourt, where
General 1lildyard is still commanding
Even with the strong relief column
now hurrying up from Durham. the
British will have n tough job to pierce
the Boer forces thrown across the
roads to Ladysmlth. while crossing the
1ugela river on pontOon bridges In the
face of the Boer artillery and rifles
fired from the northern ridges COM
mandlng the rivers Will probably prove
one of the stiffest enterprises OF the

RAILROAD MAN ON THE STAND.
President stickney, of the Chicago 3
Great Western, Causes n Sensation by
Telling What Railroad Men DO.

Chicago Nov. 20.-The testimony of
President Stickney Of the Chicago
Great Western railroad before the sub
committee of the National Industrial
Commission, investigating rate dis
crimlnation, was given very frankly,
and some of his statements caused
sensations among his hearers. His first
declaration was:
II tell you frankly the published
freight rates are not maintained by
railroads and cannot be maintained.
1t is an impossibility. The interstate
commerce law, rs far as Investigations
and corrections are concerned, Is n
roaring farce"
A sensation was created, os the
statement contradicts the statements
of more than half II dozen railroad
presidents who said published freight
rates were adhered to strictly.
On taking the oath President Stick
ney stipulated that he was giving
opinions merely. The question of is
suing free passes was taken up. The
witness coincided with the view that
this practice should be abolished.
I'VE find 1t TO our interests. how
ever" said he, "tO extend favors to
certain classes of men-referring to
members of the judiciary-who may
ask for them"
rs not 1t an evil to morals that
Judges get passes and private citizens
noneT came the question.
We'll. l don't like to pass on NOR
ais was the answer.
What would you think II Congress
prohibited the pass system and stopped
ticket scalping?"
my attitude on such questions
was the unhesitating response that
Congress was not created to run the
business Of this country. The best
thing Congress can do is to repeal some
OF the laws it has made. The ticket
brokerage problem should be left to
the railroads and the public"
''Is not the bulk of business done by
scalpers given them directly by the
railroads."
Il presume 1t is was the ready re-
ply.
Il don't think pooling would have
any effect on holding rates stable"
said Mr.. Stickney. "In the first place.
do not believe n pool could he formed
and, in the second place. unless 1t en-
braced everything. it would produce
the results which you seek TO prevent"

Marriage is solemn undertaking at
any time. though so many enter on 1t
with light heart. but 1t is question
able II any marriage ever gave rise to
more speculation as to Its possible ef-
feet on American politics than the
union of Admiral Dewey and Mrs. Ha-
zen. 1t is astounding how many peo-
pie can be found who can scent i'm
portant political changes as tbs result
of the famous admIral's vtfe natural
desire for congenial PARKER in his

ing the American advance northward: !:
Corona, Nov. 1S.-General MacAr-
thur entered Corona, as already Gu
pied, this afternoon. The insurgents
had fled last Monday after burning the
depot. Nothing else was destroyed by
them. Corona is the first town along
the Manila-Dagupan railway whee
the natives did not run at the ap-
proach of the Americans. The padres
offered quarters in the church and con.
vent. The town had one good house.
Corona is the seat of heavy English
sugar interests.
The trip here was hard one and Oc-
cupled SIX hours in covering seven miles
ana half. Most of the time was
spent In fording quarter of mile

THE NEW MRS. DEWEY
FACTS ABOUT THE ADMiRAL'S
WIFE.
She Is Forty-Two Years Ola, Popular and
Rich-They We're Only Engaged short
Time Before the Wedding.

The sentimental sympathies OF the
people of the United States are doubt
less ut this moment concentrated upon
Admiral Dewey and his bride.
All Americans will be concerned IN
knowing how their great naval hero
made love. There is excellent reason
to believe that 1t was not until Sunday,
October 29th, that Mrs. HaZen finally
consented to become Mrs. Dewey. 1t
is said that the great admiral found the
conquest of the charming widow
more difficult task than the destruction
of the Spanish fleet ut Manila, but he
proceeded with the same courage and
determination In one case as the other.
On the evening of that eventful Sun
day he dined with Mrs. Washington
Mclean and her daughter. Mrs Hnzen.
Only three other guests were present.
After dinner the admiral and Mrs.
Hazen sat In the cozy bay window that
overlooks Farragut Square. 1t was
in this window that Dewey acknowl-
edged the deafening cheers of the peO-
pie who had followed him from the
reviewing stand.
The first person, outside of the Nc
Lean family. TO be Informed of the en-
gagement was ex-Secretary Hilary A.
Herbert.
Mrs. Dewey is n very reserved ma
tron, but is credited with great ambi-
ton. While blessed with goodly
share of this worlds goods through in
herltance from her father, the late
Washington Mclean OF Ohio, she yet
complains she has less money than IL
possessed by other members of the
family. II am poor member of tho
family" she often says.
The bride is one of the most brilliant
women in Washington. She has ample
means, u thorough knowledge Of soci-
ETY. and keen interest in politics and
public questions. Altogether. she is re-
garded ms an ideal wife for the ad-
miral. She is about forty-two years
old but does not look 1t. or medium
height, inclined to stoutness, she pos
sesses marked dignity, vcrging to
hauteur. with little of the democracy of
manner that conduces TO universal pop
ularity. There Is n touch of reserve in
her bearing when among strangers.
Mrs. Dewey has property valued ut
S3JO,O00, from which she derives an
income of $4,000 The admiral has
S11S,OO0, with an income of $4,000.

Piet Joubert, chief OF
the Boer forces. is sixty-cight years
old. and In the Transyaal's history he
has borne part scarcely less eonspie-
uous than that OF President Kruger
himself. He has long been the mill
tary head OF the natlon-its most
noted fighter and taetleIan-and his ca
reer In the field has been distinguished
by many successes. while commander
in-chief, as has been stated. he is still
subordinate to the volksraad and the
president. When the Jameson raiders
were rushing upon Pretoria, Joubert
proposed TO advance against them with
artillery. "oh no. Piet." said Dom
Paul. Don't you think that two hun
dred OF our farmers with their rifles
can stop two thousand ruinoks (red
neeks)7" The outcome justified his
confidence In the 'farmcrS.'
