Streams Are All Swollen.

MANILA, July 10.-It has been raining
and storming almost constantly for two
days, and the country along the Ameri-
can south and bay lines is literally food
ed. The soldiers are suffering great dis
comfort.
The Thirteenth infantry regiment at
Pasay is in the worst position, being prac-
tically surrounded by water. The bridges
that were used for getting supplies have
been washed away, and some of the COM
panies are now separated by streams six
feet deep. In many cases the men are
sleeping with three feet of water beneath
their hunks, which are elevated on crack
er boxes The company cooks when pre-
pairing meals stand knee deep in water
Some Of the roads leading to Pasay are
simply impossible, and the rice fields on
all sides are one great lake. A high wind
blew over several tents of the Second
reserve hospital.
Manila bay Is impossible Of navigation
by either launches or canoes and no yes
sells are leaving the harbor
The United States transport Centennial
is ready to sail for San Francisco with
discharged soldiers, but the latter have to
stand around the water front all day
drenched to the skin, waiting for a launch
to take them to the steamer.
The river Pasig and all other streams
are swollen and the city at low points is
covered with water.
NATIVES SEEK PEACE.
Friendly Filipinos in Manila have been
the medium of communication between
the American authorities and the mill
tary leaders of the Instruction in Cav:te
province, which, for some time, promised
to result in bringing over a prominent
general and several hundred of his fol-
lowers with their arms. If the nego.
tiattons had succeeded the outcome would
have had a great moral effect, for other
Were the generals name given ii might
lead in his case to a fate similar to that
which has befalIen other Filipinos sus-
pected Of friendliness toward the Amer
leans. He had foreseen the failure of
the Instruction and advised Aeuima!do
to make terms, but it IS unlecs-ood that
h. has sent word to the Americans that,
having sworn to support the insurrecJion,
he must remain loyal to the end
Similar negotiations are said, on good
authority, to have been conducted with a
member of the cabinet of the so~called
Filipino government, who, himself, took
the initiative. Some form of money con-
sideration figured in the discussions with
his friends.

CLOSE OF CONVENTION.
EndeavOrers VIII Hold Final Ser
vices ut Detroit Today.

DETROIT, Mich, July 9.-Although a
large majority of the army of Chris
tan EndeavoPers in Detroit utilized the
street cars today, a considerable portion
refrained from reading the Sunday news
papers. Few of the pastors who occupied
the various Protestant pulpits went to
the extreme of mountaineering them
selves by walking long distances, as did
Rev. Charles M. Sheldon, author of I'm
His Step" who walked more than three
miles to preach from the text "One is
Our Master; All We Are Brethren" to a
congregation which entirely exceeded
the capacity of Bethany Presbyterian
church.
Crowded meetings for men and women,
each exclusive, and a Sabbath observ-
ance rally were held this afternoon.
Secretary Bear conducted the rally and
Rev. Dr. ]. r. Wilbur Chapman, of New
York preached. Mrs. F. E. Clarke, wife
of President Clarke, presided over the
womans meeting, which filled the Wood
ward Avenue Baptist church house. Mrs.
Joseph Walker, of Queensland, Australia,
led the devotions.
Tonight an additional touch of solem-
nifty was impaired to the meetings. Even
ing worship in the Protestant churches
of Detroit and Windsor took the form
of "cOnsecration services" President
Francis E. Clarke conducted the conse-
Grafton services in the Woodward Ave
nue. Baptist church.
The big convention will end tomorrow
night. There will be Junior Endeavor
missionary rallies in each of the big
tents, prison work conference and great
farewell gatherings in conclusion.

SULTAN OF SULU FRIENDLY.
Willing to Accept the Sovereignty
of the United States.

OF Un1Veu states.
WASHINGTON, July 9-Concerning
dispatches received at the state depart
ment from President Schurman regard
Ing his trip throughout the Philippine
archipelago, Secretary Hay authorizes
this informal statement:
dispatches have been received at the
state department from President Schur-
man, of the Philippine commission Civ
ing an account Of his visit to the islands
of the Philippine archipelago. He finds
the conditions in those islands satisfac-
tory. The people everywhere south of
LuZon are ready to accept American
sovereignty and to take advantage Of the
condition of things which the American
man expects to arrive at San Francisco
about Aug. 49,"
AS the result of a review Of President
Schurman's dispatches Secretary Hay has
authorized Brig. Gen. Bates at
Manila, to go to the Sulu groups to con-
suit with the sultan of Sulu regarding
the future of these islands.
The authorities will not divulge the
nature of the instructions to Gen. Bates,
but 1t is understood there is no disposi-
ton here to infringe upon the suItan's
authority, provided he acknowledges the
sovereignty of the United States. Gen.
Bates will explain the friendly purpose of
this government and If necessary will
agree that this government shall pay him
small annuity, as was done by the
Spanish government.
President Schurman reported that the
sultan was quite willing to transfer his
allegiance on condition that treaties ex-
listing between himself and Spain were
respected by the United States
1t is further stated by an official in a.
position to know that this government
intends to establish home rule at places
where it is considered advisable, including
the island Of Negroes, conditions in which.
according to President Schurnan. are es,
pecially satisfactory.
Immediately upon President Schurn1a q
arrival at San Francisco he will come to
Washington and discuss the Philippine
situation with the president.

CUBANS TAKING CASH.
Their Action in Santiago a Surprise
to American Officials.

to American Officials.
HAVANA, July 9.-American officials
here are surprised at the large number
of Cubans now applying in the province
of Santiago for a share in the American
gratuity. The Cuban officer had as
sured them that there were not a hun
dred men in the province who would ac-
cept money from the United States, las
ing the assurance on kilograms, which
purpOrted to come from Santiago. Even
when 1t became known that these dis
patches were inspired by Cuban malcon-
tents here it was still felt that these
opponents of a solution of the Cuban
army question might be able to prevent
a large number from applying to the
American paymasters. 1t turns out that
the jealousies that existed in war times
between the Eastern and Western troops
still exist and those in Santiago province
are more likely to reject than to accept
advice from Havana.
At Sancti Spiritus out of $50 mustered
out, payment has been made to 175.
Sixty weapons have been delivered to
the mayor Of the city. Two hundred and
eighty-four applications have been re-
fused. The supplementary lists will be
ready in about ten days.

Street Car Strike Results In Riot In
the Canadian City.
LONDON Ont, July 9-The city has
been placed under martial law and ad-
ditionaI militiamen ordered from ad-
jacent towns as a result of yesterdays
street car riots. Late last night the
police became unable to cope with the
rioters and the military was called out
to clear the streets. The trouble COM
menced In the afternoon, when crowds
drove the non-union crews of several
street cars from their posts and stoned
the cars. One car was fired after the
crew had left it, and was almost de-
stroyed.
The police dispersed the afternoon
rioters without aid. The company left
six cars on Dundas street in the after
noon and did not attempt to move them
to the barns until today When the at
tempt was made the rioting began afresh
The cars were stoned and the mob be-
came SO boisterous that the riot act had
to be read. This had not the desired
effect, and Mayor Wilson called out the
military. Several arrests were made. No
one was seriously injured by the stone
throwing. The city is quiet today and no
further trouble is looked for.

Soldiers Letter Throws Light Upon

NASHVILLE, Tenn, July "A letter
received today by Will T. Hale, of this
city, from his son Charles. an officer in
the Fifth United States infantry, now at
Santiago de Cuba, gives some insight
into the yellow fever situation there. The
letter says:
yellow fever has carried off four mem
bers of the regimental band In three days,
and in two weeks we have lost twenty
seven men out of our regiment. One
night at o'clock the physician made us
get outside the barracks, with nothing on
but the Cuban atmosphere, our rifles,
belts and 100 rounds of ammunition. The
next morning our company was divided
up into small squads, each in charge of
a non-commissioned officer, and scat
tered all about the country

MRS. LANES MURDER.
Servant Girl COnfesses That She
Shot Her Mistress.

WINNIPEG, Man, July s-(speciaD.-
The story of the murder Of Mrs. Lane
at Brandon is out. Hilda Clarke, alias
Blake, the servant girl, has confessed
that she shot her mistress. She gave no
reason for committing the deed, excepting
that she was very happy with children,
and some influence impelled her to do the
deed. She said that she bought the re-
volver to shoot herself, and had thought
of suicide for five years. She was raised
in a poor house in England, and brought
out here by a charitable society.
The girl came all the way to Winni-
peg to buy the revolver a few days ago.
A Galcian who was arrested on suspicion
narrowly escaped lynching. He was
roughly used by the crowd and was only
saved by a few cool heads.
