Aguinaldo Has Established
His Headquarters.
HE IS IN FULL RETREAT
And the American Forces Will Not
Allow Him and His Followers Any
Rest-He Has His Prisoners With
Him at BOambang.

Washington, Nov. 9.-The war Depart
ment definitely located Aguinaldo to-day
as on his way to Boambang, about 10
miles northeast of Tarlac. The recent
calculations have been that the insur-
gent leader was at the town of Bayabang
not far from Tarlac, in which case the
several forces under Generals MacAr-
thur, Lawton, Young and Wheaton
would have had him practically sur
rounded. There has been some doubt,
however, as to the name Bayambang
and to-day this was cleared up by def
mite information fixing Boambang in
stead of Bayambang as the place of
Aguinaldo's re-uge. A dispatch from
General Otis mentioned Boambang and
at the same time reliable information
came through other channels that Lieu
tenant Gilmore ana other American pris-
oners were at Boambang, in the mount
aims. far to the northeast of Tarlac. 1t
is expected the insurSent capital will be
shifted to Boambang and the efforts of
the American military forces Will be di-
lected toward that point.
1t is in the mountainous country of the
north and apparently out Of the fertile

Mr.. Carnegie appears in good health.
re said to a eporter that the reports
mat he intended to become a subject of
Great Britain We're without foundation,
for he said, "where a mans treasure is
there his heart is also"
Speaking Of the present war between
England and the Beers Mr.. Carnegie
said: The war against the Beers is
brought about by England's lust for do
main and is on a par with our attack on
the poor FllipinOs. These two attacks
are a disgrace to both branches Of our
race. The people in the Transvaal and
the Orange Free State ave a right to
rule themselves. One war is an attack
on an existing and the other on an en-
fryonic republic.
1T is worse for us to attack the Fill
pinos than for England to attack the
Beers for we fall from a greater height.
Gs we believed in government by con-
sent OF the governed. The best men in
England have spoken against the war
in the Transvaal and everywhere it is
deplored except by those whose inter-
ests are served by it. They are a small
clique Of judges, headed by a states
man, [ am sorry to say, who sees in the
war a nance to fortify his position"
Washington, Nov. 9.-The diplomatic
representative of every nation deeply in
tefested in the Chinese question called at
the state department to-day. 1t was no
tiecable that the calls of the Russian
ambassador, Count Casini, and the
French charge d'afiaires. Nj. Thiebaut,
on Secretary Hay. lasted longer than
usual, and the Chinese minister. Mr.. WI,
extended his call to include Assistant
Secretary Hill, who has been giving
much attention to the subject of the
trade relations of the United States in
the Orient. The interest of the Chinese
government in what is going on between
the United States and the European
powers is intense, but it is believed Sec
rotary Hay has relieved the main an
prehe,sion, which was founded upon
suspicion that our government in the
event that the European powers failed
to give the formal assurance of the
maintenance of the open door that it
seeks, would take possession of a section
of the Chinese coast before it is all taken
up by other powers. SO confident are
the officials. of success that it is init
mated that they have not even gone
"a the lenStn OF framing a policy to meet
the event of defeat. No answer has
been returned by Franc to our retention
of trade privileges. Ii is scarcely ex-
pected that the French stipulation will
apply to Tonquin ana the sections of
China that LAY been under French in
fluence for a long time past, but apply to
any extension of French holdincs.
