The Last DISABILITY.

A bill Introduced by Representative
Gaines, of Tennessee reveals the fact
that there is still upon the statute book
law which stops an ex-confederate
soldier from serving as federal grand
OF petit juror. This disability was once
removed, but crept into the law again
by revision. Now it win be repealed.
With the repeal will pass the last disa-
bility resulting from the war.--Chicago

He Gets a Setback. Our
Our General Refuses to
Recognize Filipino
Government.

Manila, April 28.--The Filipinos are
suing for terms, but their advances for
peace have been fruitless so far.
Col. Manuel Argueleses and Lieut..
Jose Bernal. who came into Gen. Mac
Arthur's lines under flag of truce, told
Gen. Otis that they were representatives
of Gen. Luna, who had been requested
by Aguinaldo to ask Gen. Otis for
cessation of hostilities in order to allow
time for the summoning of the Filipino
congress, which body would decide
whether the people wanted peace.
Gen. Otis replied that he did net rec
oyn,ze the existence of Filipino gov
ernment
There will be another conference.
The Filipino officers walked down the
railroad track to the Kansas regiments
outpost at O'Clock in the morning. The
Kansas captain in command there es-
corted them to Gen. Wheaton's head
quarters, where they were provided
with horses and sent to the headquar-
ters of Gen. Macarthur. The latter IN
vited the Filipinos to sit down and lunch
with him and conversed with them for
some time. He refused. however, to
speak authoritatively on the subject OF
their errand, referring all inquiries to
Gen. Otis.
The Filipinos were then escorted by
Major Mallory Of Gen. MacArthur's
staff TO Manila, reaching this place at 8
o'clock D. m. Gen. Otis aid. Lieut..
Sladen, was awaiting their arrival at
the depot with carriage, in which they
were driven to the palace entrance.
The news of the arrival OF Filipino
officers under flag of truce spread
through the city rapidly, and many oili-
GERS gravitated to the corridors OF the
palace, while crowd of natives gath
cred in the square opposite the palace.
At 5 o'clock the two Filipino officers
escorted by Lieut.. Sladen and Major
Mallory, left the palace. They did not
look at all elated as result of their talk
with Gen. Otis and the members OF the
Philippine commission.

Pauly Jail and Building and Manufac-
turing Company of st. Louis, for new

will be $23, ,00O Toe contracts, speci-

be ready for signature today or tomor-

cit is believed that this Jail, when
completed, in point of safety, conven-
ience. sanitation and classification OF
prisoners, will be equalled by few and
excelled by none in New England. The
prison building is to be OF fire proof
construction-of brick and steel 81 by
Sc feet, with two stories and basement.
Three of the sides of the building and
about two-thirds of the fourth side are
exposed to the weather. affording abun-
dant means of light and ventilation.
Without the steel work inside the build
inc would afford as safe place OF con-
tinenent for prisoners as the ordinary
Jail as formerly constructed, but the
place Of confinement is a steel cage with
in the walls of the building-a Jail with
in a iail-so that if perchance prisoner
ESCAPED from the cage he is still inside
strong prison.
Each of the 81 cells is provided with
two folding steel hunks. so that the
prison can accommodate in case of ne
cessity GA male prisoners, beside the
ample room provided for women.'
