ALLEGED DOWNFALL OF MIR
AGUINALDO.
Said That He Has Been Sup.
planted by Antonio Luna.

Manila, April 5.-There are
persistent rumors today that
Aguinaldo, the insurgent leader,
has been supplanted IN the con-
troll of Filipino affairs by General
Antonio Luna, commander-in-
chief of the Filipino forces. Luna
is described as being a typical
belligerent.
The proclamat ton Of the United
States Philippine commission was
posted in the streets, printed in
English, Spanish and Tagalog, to-
day. 1t was also distri ibuted in
the outside towns as far as Malo.
los, and has beeh received with
marked attention by the natives
generally, and has been approved
by a number of representative
Manilians.
English bankers who have been
interviewed on the subject are
optimistic upon the attitude of
the Americans, assuming that il
indicates that the decisive policy
will undoubtedly be successful.
A Spanish banker who was in
terviewed expressed the fear that
the proclaim ttion will not reach
the masses controlling the rebel
hon, because, he explained, the
Filipinos at Manila are mostly
domestics and clerks, who have
no nefinite opinions, and the wire
pullers outside of the city have
undoubtedly intercepted it.
The editor of Oceanic thinks
the proclamation is the most DO.

An English merchant says the
first clause, with reference to the
establishment and maintenance
of American sovereignty and
warning the rebels, should settle
the question in the mind of every
thinking Filipino.
A Scotch ship owner thinks it
does not leave any further doubt
as to the policy of the United
States, and that, consequently,
Aguinaldo must submit to .fhe
inevitable, as the cOntinuanceof
hostilties is opposed to the best
interests of the Filipinos.

mitted a report, setting forth that 1.-The All

father.
Our sympathy and coincidence is ex
tended to the family of our deceased

may be tempered with the knowledge that
he left no duty unfulflled.

Mus. Protect Their Own Property.

Mr.. II. y. Euscher and number of other
residents Of Good Hope, ID. c., addressed a
petition to the District Commissioners some
time ego calling attention to the insutiici-
ency Of the gutter on the north side of
Good Hope road and asking that a gutter
be constructed on the opposite side OF the
road. The Commissioners have informed
the petitioners that gutter, as requested,
would prove of little or no assistance, as,
in all likelihood, il would become filed and
overflow into the gutter on the north side.
Under the present conditions, the Commits
sioncrs state, the property owners must
themselves take means to protect their
premises from the overflow Of storm water.
Mr. Buscher is informed in regard to his
individual complaint against damage to his
property by the overtiowing of the gutter,
that the Commissioners are without au-
thority of law to take any action in the
matter.
