largest Force Yet Taken.

Washington, Dec. 4.-Considerable
interest Is felt here in the news that
the insurgents at Bayombong have
surrendered, particularly as the num-
Der Is said to exceed that captured by
the United States troops at any one
time. Bayombong is the city to which
Aguinaldo at one time contemplated
retreating for the purpose of locating
the rebel capital after he was forced to
fee from Tarlac, but the American
troops pressed him so hard that he was
unable to carry out his intention. No
information regarding the surrender
has been received at the war depart
ment.
Word comes from the Philippines
that the two companies Of Macabebe
scouts under Capt. Batson are doing
SO well that it has been decided to or
ganize a full battalion of those natives.
The additional two companies will be
very useful in the present campaign In
tracking the fleeing remnants Of Agui-
ualdo's disorganized army.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE.
Significant Decrease in Kumbe,
Of Failures Reported.
COMPARISON IN FIGURES.
business Continues Wonderfully Large
Volume of Trade for the Month 22.5
Per Cent Greater Than Last Year
Grain Statistics.

New York, Dec. Ar. G. Dun G. Co.'S
weekly review of trade says:
Business continues wonderfully
large, prosperous and healthy. AS
the detailed statement of failures by
branches of business cannot be made
until next week 1t seems well to say
that in four weeks failures have been
reported amounting to $6,84S,590, as
against S8,110,475 in the same weeks
OF last year, $11,610,195 in 1897 and
over $l2,O0O,0OO in 1896 and also in
1895. Yet the volume of solvent trade
represented by exchanges at the prin-
cipal clearing houses has been for the
month 22.5 per cent greater Inan last
year and 46 per cent greater than In
1892.
Wheat remains weak, yielding IL
cents, although western receipts were
but barely half last years for the week,
and for four weeks only 21,743, sos
bushels, against 3S,6O2, 739 last year.
The great decrease in Atlantic exports
for the week-only 2,410,554, against
6,123,066 bushels, and for four weeks
10,l73,735 bushels, against 17,3S8,210
last year-eXplains much weakness.
Corn declined l cent, with slightly
smaller exports than last year for the
week, but for four weeks 1926, 745
bushels, against 11,479,09S last year.
Failures for the week have been 144
in the United States, against 2S1 last
year, and Il in Canada, against 10 last
year"

BRAVERY OF LIEUT.. MONROE.
One of the Heaviest Blows Dealt to tho

tinue to Advance.

Manila, Dec. 4.-The surrender of 800
armed insurgents at Bayombong, in
Nueva Viscaya province, to Lieut..
Munroe of the Fourth cavalry was the
result OF one of the most remarkable
feats OF courage and bluff" OF the war.
Lieut.. Munroe had but fifty men and
his re-enforcements were far in the
rear. Notwithstanding this, he COM
municated Geographically with the in
surgent general, Conon, stating that he
was ready to move Immediately with
large force of cavalry against him
unless he should surrender uncondi-
tionally. Lieut.. Munroe next wired
south for re-enforcements. Twenty
four hours before the re-enforcements
arrived he went with his small escort
to Bayombong and accepted the sur
render OF the garrison.

The season approaches when ones
thoughts turn toward place where
the Inconvenience Of Northern win
ter may be escaped. No section of this
country, offers such ideal spots us the
Gulf Coast on the line of the Louisville
X Nashville Railroad between Mobile
and New Orleans. IT possesses mild
climate, pure air, even temperature
and facilities for hunting and fishing
enjoyed by no other section. Accom-
modations for visitors are first-class,
and can be secured at moderate prices.
The l.. & N. r. K. is the only line by
which it can be reached in through

Secretary of the Interior Reviews Ma
tIODal Affairs.

Secretary OF the Interior Reviews Ma
tionai Affairs.
Washington, Dec. 4.-The annual re-
port of Secretary Of the Interior Hitch
cock, while summing up the work in
all the bureaus, is of special interest
by reason OF its statements regarding
pension policies. At the close of the
fiscal year there were 93l, $40 pension
ers, decrease of 2,195 during the year.
The average annual value OF all PEN
sions was Sl3274. The Spanish war
probably will increase the pension roll
during the current fiscal year. The
secretary concurs In the recommended
lions for legislation providing that no
pension be granted to commence prior
early revision and codification of the
pension laws, as the numerous amend
atory laws and decisions have made
the whole system a labyrinth Of laws
and legal opinions. Secretary Hitch
cock urges legislation to definitely con-
strue tho act Of June q. 1890, relating
to widows pensions.
The report estimates the irrigable
area of the arid region of the United
States at 100000 acres, capable OF
comfortably supporting under a prop
er irrigation system 50.000,000 people.
Reasonable expenditures both by the
federal and state government looking
to well-defined irrigation system
are urged. Nearly fifty proposed new
forest reserves or additions to those
already established are under consid-
Grafton. The Dawes commission re-
ports the time has not yet arrived for
the installation Of territorial or state
government in Indian territory, owing
mainly to lack Of uniform land tenure.
Attention Is called to the phenome-
nal increase in railway traffic in the
last two years, amounting approx
mately in increased earnings in 1899
over 1898 to 100000, and the pre-
vious year to S23 100000, the increase
being only limited by the lack Of cars
to carry products.

SECRETARY ROOTS REPORT.
Plan Of Governments for Porto Rico II
Outlined.

& | tiah VI oobeThheut IOE IOTtO RICO ~
Outlined.
Washington, Dec. 4.-The annual
report of Elihu Root, secretary of war.
was made public Friday.
An important feature Of the report
Is comprehensive outline of plan
Of government for Porto Rico. 1t is
understood that President Mckinley is
in entire accord with Secretary Root
on this question, and that the plan out
lined by the secretary will be the iden-
teal plan which the president will
recommend to congress In his annual
message.
Secretary Root says the inhabitants
of the island are Incapable of self-gov-
eminent. His plan Is 70 have a gov
ernor, to be appointed by the presi-
dent, with the consent of the senate,
also minor officials, such as secretary
of state, etc, to be appointed in the
same manner. They will form the adj
ministrative council, which will also
be composed of a minority member
ship, to be appointed by the president
from the residents of the island.
The secretary considers it too early
to establish local legislature, giving
the inhabitants the franchise only in
municipal affairs.
Abolition of the duties between the
United States and Porto Rico is recon-
n ended.
The secretary declares in favor of
cable from the United States to the
Philippines, via Hawaii and Guam.
Among his other recommendation
is one that Gen. Shafter be retired,
with the full rank of major-general.
The appropriations for the year end
ing June 80, 1900, were made on a
basis of a military force which has
been greatly exceeded by the exercise
of the authority conferred under the
act of March 2, 1899, and the raising,
equipping and transporting to the
Philippines of additional troops and
supplies.
1t will, therefore. be necessary to
ask congress for a deficiency appro-
priation for the current year up to
about the amount of the estimates
which have been submitted for the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1901. This
will not be altogether a new appro-
priation in any but a technical sense,
as more than two-thirds of the sum
can be made available by the reappro-
priation of sums which have once
been appropriated for purposes of the
war with Spain, and which the speedy
termination Of that war has enabled
the department to save and report as
rnpledged.

Capital of SGO.OOO,OOO.

Indianapolis, Dec. "A. A. McKain.
president Of the Indiana Manufactur-
ing company. who is managing the
promotion of the combination of all
thrashing machine companies in the
country, has returned from New York.
where he has been arranging for the
transfer of the property Of the various
machine manufactures of the United
States. The formation Of the COM
bination has been slow, he says, be-
cause there has been a careful inspec-
ton of the plants themselves by an
expert inspector. 1t is now thought
that the capitalization Of the combina-
tion will be about $600O0,000. Head
quarters will be either at Indianapolis
or Chicago. Mr.. McKain will be the
president.

GEN. WOOD HAS BEEN CHOSEN.
President Mckinley to Give Him Supreme
Charge of Cuba.

Washington, Dec. 4.-Gen. Leonard
Wood will be the master of all Cuba
under the direction of the president
until the time comes when congress
takes action by providing a new civil
government for the island.
Gen. Wood is not to be called Off
cially civil governor" He will be
military governor, in supreme COM
mand of the island, but in the absence
of any insurrection or trouble-and
none is expected by the administration
his duties will chiefly be civil.
Gen. Wood is to have the rank of
major general of volunteers, which
will enable him to outrank the regu-
lar army officers who remain in Cuba
under his command.
Some Of the generals now there are
to be withdrawn, and those who re-
main will be placed under Gen. Woods
orders.

Milwaukee, Wis, Dec. 4.-Marcus A..
Hanna, chairman of the national re-
publican committee. will not accept an
other term as national chairman, al
though he will serve out his present
term. The statement was made by
Henry c. Payne, national republican
committeeman of Wisconsin, when
asked about the truth of the rumor
that Mr.. Hanna told him that he would
serve out his term but would not ac-
cept another. His term expires after
the next republican national conven-
ton. Mr.. Payne says that Mr. Hanna's
health is such as to forbid his taking
up the active duties of national cam
paign.

ROrden Murders In AraIn.

fall River, Mass, Dec. 4.-There Is
every evidence that the famous Bor-
den murder mystery is entering upon
a new phase. Detectives and lawyers
are at work examining new evidence
pointing to sweetheart OF Bridget
time Of the murder, as the wielder of
the AK with which Andrew J. Borden
and his wife, Lizzie Borden's step
mother. was hacked to pieces. 1t Is
believed that Lizzie Borden, who was
acquitted of the crime in 1893, is de-
voting her means to this work of clear
ing up the mystery.

Chicago, Dec. 4.---Corporations with
an aggregate capital of more than
$500, 100000 are preparing to move out
of the state Of Illinois and establish
their headquarters in the east, mainly
in New York city. This information
Is coupled with the startling statement
that at least some Of the corporations
in question contemplate not only the
removal of their headquarters from
Chicago, but the Withdrawal Of their
entire plants from the state. The chief
reason assigned for the radical change
in base and operations Is that the leg
islature and courts Of Illinois have as
sumed so distinctly an antitrust COM
plexion In legislation and legal deci-
sions that the corporations have de-
cided to retaliate by withdrawing their
interests to other fields.
