A NAVAL CAMPAIGN.
Every Island in the Philippines Will BE
Visited.

Washington, Feb. 1.-THE admins
tration has determined rapidly to ex-
tend jurisdiction of the United States
over the Philippine group in its en-
tirety, acting on the theory that delay
in this crisis is dangerous and anarchy
and general paralysis of such interests
as the islands support would be brought
about through failure promptly to re-
place Spanish sovereignty over the is
lands by that of the United States.
This decision involves the necessity of
a naval campaign and this will be in
stituted as soon as Dewey receives rein
forcements in the shape of gunboats
now on the way to Manila
1t is not anticipated that there will
be necessity for any formidable de-
monstra tons, but the very fact that
the United States government is able
to exhibit a sufficient force to accom-
plish the purposes of occupation is eX-
pected to deter the natives from profit
less resistance. Owing to the vast num-
Der of the Philippine islands, a large
number of gunboataS would be required
to visit them simultaneously, so the pro-
gramme will be to have the vessels visit
in order the principal towns outside of
Manila, especially those where Spanish
garrisons We're maintained on the is
lands of Cebu and at Zamboango, on
the island of Mindanao, and some of the
cities of Negros. 1t is understood that
there will be no attempt made at this
time to displace any of the existing mu-
nicipal governments except where they
prove refractory and offer resistance.
In fact a policy of Cancellation will be
followed at all points in the treatment
of the natives.

INSURGENTS GATHERING.
Reyes Has American Lieutenants in His
Fight Against ZelaNa.

Fight Against Zelaya.
New Orleans. Feb. 1.-THE steamer
Condor arrived to-day from Bluetields,
Nicaragua. and brought mail advices
from the Reyes revolution In the be-
ginning of the year Reyes sent his les
ignation to Zelaya, accusing the latter
of acknowledgement and dishonesty. On
Jan. &c the authorities commenced gath
ering troops. ostenSibly as protection
against Honduras insurgents, and the
defenses of the city were manned. Reyes
announced that General Aurelio Estrada
had been named as his successor and
would arrive Jan. 81. On Jan. 80 the
people held a mass meeting and pro-
tested against anybody taking the place
Of Reyes. On Feb. General Estrada
arrived with 20 men to fill various gov
eminent positions. After being talked
to by Reyes and citizens, Estrada re-
fused to accept the office of governor,
but said he would go to the interior
and return with troops to settle the
trouble with fire and blood. Reyes in
sisted on turning affairs over, but Es-
trada left leaving the department with
out a governor. Troops and citizens
called on Reyes and insisted on his TAX
ing charge. He consented and issued
a call to arms ito precipitate the imper-
tinent oppressor that has the republic
in horrible agony" and offering to die
at the front in the cause of liberty.
On Saturday, Feb. 4, Reyes appointed
Ignacio Suarez governor and lowered
duties and organized his army. On
Sunday a number of Americans and
others joined him and a company was
organized, commanded by J. c. Ken
nedy of the Louisiana field artillery.

Seeley Rifles of Galveston and Burt

tenants Reyes has 1000 Remington
| rifles and plenty of ammunition. Satur-
day night Reyes and $50 men left for
Greytown, but their boat struck shoals,
so they marched overland to Roma,
which will require three days. The re-
| bells seized the lake steamer and a
Hotchkss gun. News from the interior
says that the insurgent army is growing
steadily. The Marietta had not arrived
up to Feb. 10.

THE CANAL BILL
Will Be Added to the River and Harbor
Bill in the Senate.


Washington, Feb. 1.-THE senate
committee on commerce decided to-day
to put the Morgan Nicaragua canal bill
on the river and harbor bill The action
of the committee was preceded by
brief argument by Senator Morgan, in
which he went over the general grounds
favorable to the construction of the
canal. He controverted the opinion that
the addition of the amendment would
be detrimental to the interests of the
river and harbor bill and expressed a
preference for the river and harbor
over the sundry civil appropriation bill
as a vehicle to carry the canal bill.
There was no prolonged discussion
among the members of the committee
and there seemed little division of opin-
ion as to the wisdom of attaching the
amendment to one of the appropriation
measures.
Some of the members expressed the
desire that the amendment should go
on the sundry civil bill, but motion
to recommend that it be incorporated in
that measure was voted down, seven
nays to four yeas.
Senator Morgan then moved the
amendment to the river and harbor bill,
which prevailed, seven TO four, as fol-
lows: Ayes-Neson, Berry, Penrose,
Mcbride, Mcmillan, Elkins, Jones of
Nevada. Senator Frye, chairman of
the committee, did not vote. Nays
Caffery. Mills, Pascoe, Murphy. While
Senator Caffery voted against the
amendment, he did not indicate any
purpose to oppose the passage of the
bill in the senate because of incorpor-
alton of the canal provision. He join
ed with all the other members of the
committee in the vote to report the bill
with the amendment added.

commit the bill with instructions to in
corporate in it the Nicaragua canal
amendment was sustained, 1916 to 96
The naval appropriation bill was taken
up and overhauled. The bill was COM
pleted during the remainder of the day.
There was no general opposition to the
measure, although it carries $44 600 OOO
being $8,O00,000 more than the largest
naval appropriation ever passed by
congress.
A bill was passed authorizing the
| president to appoint five additional ca
diets at large to the naval academy
During the course of the brief debate
| upon the bill, it developed that one of
these cadetships was to go to son
of Captain Gridley who commanded
Admiral Dewey's flagship at the battle
of Manila. and another to brother of
Ensign Worth Bagley of North Caro-
lima, the hero of the torpedo boat Win
slows encounter with the masked bat
teries in Cardenas harbor, Cuba.
The regular order was then demand
ed. This was the vote upon the motion
made just prior to adjournment YES
from the decision of the chair, wherein
the speaker ruled that Mr.. Hepburn's
motion to recommit the sundry civil
bill with instructions to incorporate it
in the Nicaragua canal bill amendment
was not in order. No quorum having
developed upon the motion yesterday,
| the vote was again taken by ayes and
noes. The chair was sustained and the
appeal laid upon the table, 1875 to 96.
The sundry civil bill was then passed
The naval appropriation bill was for
mally reported. Mr.. Boutelle, rep, Me-.
| Immediately moved that the house go
| into the committee of the whole for its
| consideration. Mr.. Hepburn asked
whether he could move to amend the
motion so as to provide that the house
should go into committee of the whole
to consider the Nicaragua canal bill
This is a general appropriate
BILL said the speaker. THE motion
would not be in ORDER
IF the motion of the gentleman
from Maine We're voted down, would it
be in order for me to make the motion
directly?" asked Mr.. Hepburn.
1T would not replied the speaker.
The house then went into committee
and took up the naval appropriation
bill. No general debate was demanded

COMPROMISE PROPOSED.
Republican Senators Anxious to Avoid an
Extra Session.

Washington, Feb. 17.--There was a
pronounced movement in the senate to-
day looking to a compromise on the ar
my reorganization bill. The movement
originated with several republican SEN
ators, who advanced the opinion that
compromise was preferable to an extra
session Of congress. The Cockrell bill
was accepted by them at the first adj
vance on the part of the democrats to-
ward an understanding, and many felt
that they would go farther in that di
rection in case the republicans should
indicate a willingness to meet them
half way. The movement grew wholly
out of the desire to avoid a special ses-
session, and was participated in by
some of the republican leaders. When
the matter was brought to the attention
of Senator Hawley, chairman of the
committee on military affairs, he gave it
no countenanCe whatever, declaring

PASSENGER TRAIN RACE.

Yesterday afternoon two passenger
trains, one on the B. & o. and the
other on the Ohio River left Mounds
vile at the same time. Quite a crowd
Of spectators were on hand and in a
few minutes it was found that there
was to be race. The Ohio River man
started out first but he only maintained
the lead about one half mile. The B.
& o. had an engineer at the throttle
who was not afraid to run, and it
was only a few minutes until he forged
ahead. 1t is often the case that two
trains arrive at the above city on the
same time and race each other as far
as Benwood. The B. & o. so far have
had the best of all arguments, and
will likely continue. They are too
hard to down.
