Grand American handicap shoot shall be

AWFUL MISTAKE
HAS BEEN MADE

Montreal, April 29.-Seven years ago
Thomas Stewart then 10 years old, lost
the sight of one eye, the blade of a pen
knife having been accidentally run into
it. DR.. Alexander Proudfoot attended
him. Recently Dr. Proudfoot advised
the removal of the useless eye as the
only means of preserving the other optic.
This was agreed to and the delicate task
was intrusted to DR.. ProudfoOt, who is
assistant occulist and aurist to the gem
eral hospital. The operation took place
at the family residence, and at its con-
clusion it was found terrible mistake
had been made-the healthy eye had
been removed. On recovering from the
effects of the anesthetic the patient found
himself blind.

GRATIFIED WITH
OTIS REPLY

Washington, April 29.-The war de-
partment officials are gratfied with the
tone of the reply of Otis to the Filipino
delegation. 1t is considered as comport-
ing with the dignity of the United States.
1t would not be possible for the United
States to recognize the existence of the
Filipino congress or the Filipino govern
ment. 1t is said at the war department
that it is not likely any further conces-
sions than that of general amnesty will
be made. Peace and freedom, it is be-
lieved, will appeal more strongly to the
Filipino army than any argument Aguin-
aldo and his officers may make.
Lawton is expected to continue the
movement toward joining forces with
Macarthur according to the original pro-
gramme, and this juncture will probably
be effected next Tuesday.

GERMANY IS
VERY FRIENDLY
quirementS.

New York, April pa special to the
Herald from Washington says: Emperor
William has given an indication of his
friendship for the United States by send
ing a personal cable dispatch to Presi-
dent Mckinley thanking him for his ac-
ton in authorizing the landing Of a Ger
man cable on American soil. 1mmedi-
ately upon the receipt of the message 1t
was telegraphed from the White house to
the president in Philadelphia. The presi-
dent has replied to the enperor's mes
sage thanking him for the friendly state
ments therein made and reiterating the
friendship of the United States for Ger
many.
It is understood that Emperor Williams
message is a most friendly cOmmunica-
ton. giving every indication of his pur-
pose to promote the friendly relations be-
tween the two governments. Much graft
fication is naturally felt at the action or
the emperor and no doubt is felt in ad-
ministration circles that his action will
aid in promoting the good feeling which
has existed since Germany formally rec
ogniZed our sovereignty over the Philip
pines and placed her subjects under the
protection of this government. With the
Coghlan incident settled, Rear Admiral
Kautz admonished and the three powers
in accord respecting Samoa and with the
negotiations for q reciprocity treaty with
Germany making satisfactory progress,
the authorities are very much pleased
over the conditions of the relations of the
United States and the German empire.

turn With fresh proposals from IeleIdl
Luna.
$40 D. m.-The envoys from General
Luna We're Hospitality treated by General
Otis who provided them with house and
with guard and permitted them 10 WISH
friends here The conference at falace
this morning lasted three hours, MI.
Schurman, United States Philippine COM
missioner, attending, and Admiral Dewey
dropping in for an hour. The discussion
was mostly between Otis and ArgueieZes
who had been selected for the mission by
Luna because he had known General OTIS.
JSchurman emerged from the Palace be-
tween the two stockhaired, half savage
looking emissaries and the three drove
to the office of the United States Philip
pine commission where they talked in
formally for about an hour.
Manila is divided between two opinions,
the majority believing the Filipinos de-
sire peace while others think they are
sparring for time in which to rehabilitate
their demoralized army. The latter opin-
ion gained color from the fact that rein
forcements have been sent to the south
opposite the American lines. Arguelezes,
who is a lawyer, aptly illustrated Malay
sublety, while he declared with apparent
frankness that the Filipinos leaders
want a chance to give up the struggle
gracefully through the congress instead
of surrender ANONYMOUSLY. He asked
fortnight's armistice so the congress
might be summoned May 1. He endeav-
ored to commit the Americans to greater
concessions and wanted terms guaranteed
by the treaty.
He was told that recognition of the Fill
pino government was impossible and
that a written guarantee of amnesty for
all insurgents was the utmost that could
be given. Argueezes argued that Spain
had given similar guarantees and broken
them and he laid much stress on the
Spaniard's honor He persistently de-
clared that the Filipinos must be per-
mitted to retire with honor.
In a conversation with Schurman Col.
Arguelezes revived the question of indie
pendence and was referred to the state
ment in the commissioners proclamation
that the Filipinos would be given an in
creasing measure of government as
soon as they proved themselves worthy
of it.
Mr.. Schurman warned Arguelezes that
the longer war was Wagcd and more Kill
ed the stronger would be the animosltles
hindering an amicable cooperation be-
tween the two peoples for the prosperity
of the islands.
The insurgents have an insurrection
on their own hands. The Maccabees,
traditional foes of the Tagals, are rising
in the north while the burden of thous-
ands of hungry and discontented people
who fled before the American army and
who are camping behind the Flllplnos
lines multiples troubles of the Filipino
government, the headquarters of which
are now at San Isidro, having been re-

WERE LOSS
Caused by the Burning of the Upper
Works of the Mines at Carlinville,
1

Carlinyille, H., January 2.-The shaft
of the Carllnville Coal Company caught
fire to-day by a can OF lubricating oil
being heated by stove in the top of
the tipple. A strong southwest wind
famed the flames to all parts of the
wooden structure, which covers an acre
of ground. The fire company was pow
erless as there was no water in the
mains. The burning timbers and fired
coal tumbled down into the shaft. One
hundred men were penned below. The
airshaft engine being seldom used, re-
fused to work A panic ensued below,
where the air had extinguished the
flames on the lamps, leaving the men in
total darkness. They were scattered
over a radius Of three miles. Suffoca-
ton was narrowly averted. A scene in
describable took place on top among
the women. mothers, daughters and
sweethearts Of the victims. The men
were finally released from the mines
unframed. The loss will aggregate
5000; $1,000 insurance.
Owing 10 recent trouble between en-
ployes and employers the works may
not be rebuilt Only small supply OF
coal is on hand in this city. A suit
will follow between the city and the
water company, as this is the second
large fire caused by the failure of the
company to supply water, the big -four
ing mill being the other. year ago.
The fire blockaded the Chicago G. Alton
and the Ltchfield, Carrolton G. Western
trains. One hundred families are al
most destitute as result of the fire.

The City of Cleveland Seeks to Profit by
the Illinois Decision.

Cleveland, o., January lowing to
the inability of the Pennsylvania COM
pany's legal representatives and the
city officials to reach a satisfactory
agreement in the lake front contro-
versy, it has been decided to fight the
case out in the courts. The case will
come up for hearing before Judge
Hammond in the United States Circuit
Court on Thursday next. The Lake
Shore, Big Four and other roads in
volved the matter reached an agree
ment with the city. On the part of
the city the lawyers will maintain
that the State ownership extends to
the very shore line, as recently held
by the Supreme Court of Illinois in a
similar suit. If the courts decide in
like manner here the city of Cleveland
will appeal to the State to confscate
the property on which the Union depot
and Lake Shore tracks are now locat-
ed. This is all made land and if the
holdings of the Illinois court is good
law it is held, the made land belongs
to the State.

COREAN CRUELTY.
Reports, Coming by Way of Russia, Are of
Scandalous Character.

ScandaiOuS Charactcr.
London, January 1.-THE st. Peters
burg correspondent of the Times says:
THE correspondent of the Novoe
Vremya at Seoul. the Corean capitol,
relates terrible crimes by the anti
Russian party, who since the depart
ure of the Russian financiers and drill
instructors, have wreaked vengeance
by vile deceit and barbarous cruelty
on the Corean dragomen of the Rus
sian embassy, the official who safe
guarded the removal of the Corean
Emperor to the Russian mission house
"The official, his wife and other Co
reans were mercilessly tortured with
view of compelling them to confess
to false charge of poisoning the En-
peror's coffee, in order to shield the
real criminals, who are among the
high government officials. The ex-
dragoman was finally brutally execut-
ed, mutilated publicly and made sport
of in a savage and disgusting manner
All this, the writer says, occurred in a
country blessed with American and
other Christian missionaries and
where American officials occupy in
fiuential posts in the Corean govern
ment service"
