Americans Getting Ready for Decisive
Move.

Move.
MANILA. March 22.-While ap-
parently inactive since Sunday, really
the opposite has been the case with
the American forces. Reorganization
entailing many changes has been in

ment, the Minnesota regiment and the
Twenty-second regiment have been

cite, at the water front, in readiness
or immediate transportation when the
plans of the military leaders have been
formulated Our troops are enTrenched,
and the situation is practically 'un-
changed. =
The insurgents have refrained from
making any attrck recently, and it ap-
pears that the rebels are saving their
ammunition for decisive movement.
According to prisoner captured by
our troops, Aguinaldo has announced
that he will personally mass the re-
serves at Malolos and march on Manila
within 20 days, unless the Americans
withdraw in the meantime. The con-
centration of the rebel forces in the
vicinity of Malabon gives color to the
statement of the prisoner.

ST. LOUIS WORLDS FAIR PROJECT
Taking of subscriptions for Stock to
Begin at Once.

ST. LOUIS, March 23.-Within three
days the actual work of taking Sub
scriptions for stock in the worlds fair
corporation will, in all probability, be
begun. This was decided at a meeting
of the executive committee which held
a two hour session today. A matter
which occasioned considerable contro-
versy was whether or not any call
should be made before the entire S.
100000 was subscribed by the people.
After several members of the COM
mitiee had spoken on this at some
length, 1t was finally decided not to
ask for cent from the people OF St.
Louis until the whole amount had
been subscribed. This decision is
guarantee that not more than two
calls of per cent each will be made
within the first six weeks, and that
not more than 20 per cent can be ask
ed in any six months.

NOW STEP DOWN
AND OUT
This is the Only Course
for the Cuban As
sembly.

L
to the Tribune from Havana says: A
week of reflection seems to haye
brought the Cuban assembly to its
senses, for Tuesdays session witnessed
marked return on that body's part to
reason and moderation. A decided
surprise was sprung. on the radical
element when motion was introduced
by Senor DesDaigne and four others
providing for the disbandment of the
army and the dissolution'of tie assem-
bly, itself, at the same time authorizing
the soldiers to accept any arrearages
of pay offered to them by the United
States. Sanguilly and Gomez, the
radical leaders, pleaded against i'm
mediate action on so unpalatable
proposition, but the only concession
they secured was a postponement Of
the discussion on Senior Despaigne's
motion until Saturday.
A bitter fight will doubtless be pre-.
cipitated over this invitation to the
Cerro gathering to commit political
hari-kari, but 1t is expected now that
majority will sanction the dissolu.
tion project as the best means of
retiring from position which is no
longer tenable.
AS the army wants to accept the
So, ,OO0, 900 now waiting delivery, and is
willing to disbaud thereafter, the only
practical role left to the assembly is to
lend its countenance to the distribu-
tion with the best grace possible

Who would have thought such a

President, with his negro recorder Of
deeds, negro register Of the treasury,

in the various departments OF the
Government in Washington City,
where a negro is supposed to be as

would have been different. But in
the District of Columbia, within the

such an occurrence is absolutely
