resolution censuring Colonel Stotsen-
berg of the 1st Nebraska infantry. The
first resolution was the result of the
charges that the colonel, regular army
officer, was unnecessarily harsh with his
men. Later reports indicate that the
men are more than satisfied with the
colonel and this, together with the
brilliant work of the regiment under
his leadership, has caused change Of
opinion. Colonel Stotsenberg is 1st

Washington, March 31.-The Nicara-

Secretary Hitchcock made a strong ar

CAPTURE OF AGUINALDO'S CAPI-
TAI,

General Macarthur started for the
rebel capital at o'clock this morning
with two rapid fire guns flanking the
track, two guns of the Utah battery on
the right, and two guns of the 9Th ar
tillery on the right, firing continuously.
The Kansas and Montana regiments
moved upon Malolos. The Nebraska
and Pennsylvania regiments, and the
3rd artillery, kept right along the rail-
road. The only effective stand made by
the rebels was at Bamboo and the earth
works half mile from Malolos, and on
the right, where the Nebraska regiment,
as was the case yesterday, had the
hardest work, suffered the greatest loss.
Colonel Funston was always at the
front, and was the first man to enter
Malolos, followed by group of DASH
ing Kansans. The Filipinos' flag, flying
from the center Of the town, was hauled
down by some men in the Montana regi-
ment, who at once raised their own
above it. From the columns the smoke
was seen rising from the city, and It
seemed as II the whole place was
ablaze. 1t turned out, however, to be
only the presidencia or government
building and few smaller buildings
had been fired by the rebels before they
evacuated. From reports gathered from
prisoners taken, it is believed the rebel
army is constantly losing strength, on
account of desertions, and although the
enemy may make one or two more
stands, the forces Of Aguinaldo will de-
generate in perhaps a month to few
hundred, who may continue waging a
warfare In the mountains.

TAXATION In CUBA.
Railway Managers Say the Present
System Is n Burden.

HAVANA, Sept. u.-Governor General
Brooke, when asked to-day regarding the
matter of railroad taxation in Cuba said
the railway taxes were very high and then
referred the correspondent of the Asso-
ciated Press to Senior Pablo Desvernine,
secretary of finance, and to the railroad
managers. Senior Desvernine, in reply to in
quiry, pointed out that in addition to the
10 per cent. tax laid on passenger tickets,
a per cent. tax is laid on freight and col
lected from the passengers. Besides these
the railroads. he said. must pay a tax of
nearly per cent. on their net profits. This
latter tax Is collected when the companies
pay their dividends. every six months, and
the delay In paying 1t Is due not only TO
the fact that the railroads have not yet
published a dividend, but also to the fact
that the tax was, in he first instance, mu-
nicipal. Not until the end of July was ii
thought advisable TO make il a state tax.
At that time proper steps were taken re-
garding the collection, with view of avoid
ing the difficulty of dividing up the assess
ments among the various municipalities
Senior Desvernine said he regarded the ag-
gregate taxation as very high. remar'xin.,
that many of the lines suffered enormous
losses during the war, one having every
stroyed and others having rails torn up
over long distances. He expressed himself
as favoring a reduction of the burden.
The railroad managers who were inter-
viewed agreed In asserting that the Cuban
lines were more heavily taxed than any
other railroads In the world. The freight
aud passenger tax and the property tax are
local charges, made by every little town
and the additional tax on profits also goes
into the islands funds. The managers are
unanimous in thinking the present system
OF taxation Is a heavier burden than has
ever been borne in Cuba except during war
times.
