just what Americaus Waat.
Manila, July The news from
Manila indicates the insurgents are
becoming more active, even threat
ening to open an active campaign.
This would suit the Americans, as
in that case the Tagals would come
within striking distance. South OF
Manila the insurgents are beginning
to return to the towns from which
they we're driven q few weeks ago.
1t is also reported that the natives
Of linus have been ordered out of the
town which would indicate purpose
on the part of the insurgents to at
tack the place. American officers are
on the watch for an attempted sur
prise but think it unlikely the insur-
gents would attack the Americans in
a place where they themselves were
SO recently defeated and driven in
confusion from strongholds.
at San Fernando this morning a
detachment of the Eighth Infantry
encountered a party of insurgents
and quickly routed them. There is
no further indications at San Fer
nando. that the insurgents will give
battle.
Paris, July 1.-The Filipino Junta
here claims to have heard of severe
American defeats north and south of
Manila. They claim that at Mala-
bon q detachment of Ill Americans
were ambushcd and in the ensuing
fight Americans had 9s casualties
and 13 taken prisoners and at Caloo-
can an American detachment under
Captain Rockefeller was surrounded
and captured. AS the Filipiuos have
been wrong every time before when
they made statements, this one is
not believed.
Washington, July Those per-
positive key to the intentions of the
administration in regard to the Phil
ippines, point to the fact that the ad-
ministration has appointed number
of bright young men to positions in
the departments with the understand
ing that they will be sent to the Phil
ippines in the fall as evidence that
the intention is to hold the islands.
There is no question but what the
president wishes to hold the islands,
but the final disposition rests with
Congress. President Mckinley stat
ed on several occasions that what
the executive should do would be
temporary, as Congress would de-
eide on the government of the
islands.
Manila, July 1.-The First Nebraska a
and companies A and B, Utah artil-
lery will sail for home today.
Washington, July General Otis
reports from Manila today that the
Morg an City sailed June "a, with "a
sick soldiers.
Washington, July 1.-General Fun
ston, in letter dated May 13, and
written to friend in this city, says:
"On general principles am not an
expansionist, but believe since we
were by an unfortunate train of cir
cumstances thrown into this thing
we should stay with it to the bitter
end, and rawhide these bullet-head-
ed Asiatic ruffians until they yell for
mercy. And after the war / want
the job of professor of American
history in Luzon nnivarsity-when
they build it-and I'll warrant chat
the new generation of Filipinos will
know better than to get in the way
of the band wagon of Anglo-Saxon
progress and decency."

HAY Mist" is the name of the
new concoction that has replaced
malt extract and hop tea in the Ter
ritory joints. AS malt extract is not
beer because the label on the bottles
are different, so differs "Hazy MIST
from both beer and malt extract

Yes. in label only. The same hazy
mist comes over the eyes and brain
of the man who imbibes in any con-
coction which emanates from the
average Territory joint.
