MANILA. May 13.-The curtain will go
down in a few days on the fighting in the
island OF Luzon. Workingmen are prepar-

The policy of humane warfare has its
disadvantage Among the thousands OF
pretended friendly natives who are returning
to their homes behind the American armies
there are some who have taken advantage
OF the generosity OF the conquerors to make
the zone unsafe unless Americans go well
armed and in parties. Soldiers going about
alone are frequently fired from houses
or from behind bushes. During the past
week 1t has been found necessary to send
guards with wagons and ambulances ana
several attempts have been made to wreck
trains by placing distractions upon the rail-
way track.

The securing Of capital was an under
taking OF no little work. as at the time
the boom in trust organizations was ut
a low ebb and money scarce. About
week since the options expired and tos-

BY Foster OF ultimate success the options
were in nearly all cases renewed. and =
