The Paris Exposition.

Paris, April 23.-Though work goes on
incessantly night and day, the installation
Of exhibits at Frances colossal exposition
is greatly retarded. The gates are closed
to visitors at o'clock in the evening,
when freight cars and wagons are allowed
to enter the grounds, and from that time
On the exhibition resembles a vast work
shop, with its changing hammers and
swarms of French workmen busily en-
gagged on the completion of the interior
of the buildings and in arranging the ex-
hibits. Even during visiting hours the
work inside the palaces goes steadily for
ward. The immense crowd present on the
opening two days-Easter Sunday and
Monday have now dropped to about half
their number, but the exposition officials
declare themselves thoroughly satisfied, as
the figures still exceed those of the open
ing days of the exposition of 1889. The
attendance now averages about 100000
daily, about one-half of whom pay for ad-
mission. The rolling sidewalk, copied
from the original of the Chicago exposi-
ton, promises to be great feature, taking
the place of the Eiffel tower of 1889. 1t
is crowded all day long by Parisians, who
regard it as much source of amusement.

ON THE ISLAND OF LUZON
General Pho del Pillar Has Reap
peared-Several Skirnishes Take
PIace-Filipinos Try to Wreck a
Train.

Manila, P. l., April 23.-The insur-
gents have been aggressive in almost
every province of Luzon. Gen. Pho del
Pillars band, numbering 800, which was
out of sight for three months, the lead
er being reported killed, has reappear-
ed in its old field about San Miguel.
Pillar is supposed to be again in COM
mand. He gave the American garri-
son at San Miguel, consisting of three
companies of the Thirty-fifth infantry,
with Calling gun, three hours fight
during night attack. The loss Of the
insurgents in this engagement is not
known, as they removed their dead and
wounded. but presumably 1t was con-
siderable.
Twenty-Five Filipinos in the province
OF Batangas attacked Lieut.. Wende,
who, with eight men, was scouting near
San Jose. The lieutenant and FIVE men
were wounded and one private was
killed.
Sergeant Ledonius Of the Thirty-fifth
infantry was badly wounded in an am
buscade near Baliuag.
Col. Smith Of the Seventeenth infan-
try, who captured Gen. Montenegro
and brought him to Manila, is in the
isolation hospital, suffering from small
pox.
Col. Smiths command captured 1870
officers and men with Montenegro, who
was formerly one of the most dapper Of
fcers in the Filipino army. looks worn
and haggard. He says he led terrible
life for months and he has offered to
return to the north with Col. Smith
to endeayor to persuade his former
comrades Of the uselessness of oppos-
ing the Americans.
One hundred escaped Spanish prison
ers from the provinces of South Luzon
have arrived at Manila. The insurgents
have 400 more Spanish prisoners in
that district.
Recently the Filipinos destroyed sew
eral rods of the railroad line near Pan

The Previous Battle.

Pretoria, Dec. 16.-Fifteen officers
and BIG men, Magaliesburg, have been
released. The Beers surrounded and
captured 120 of Brabant's horse in a
defile in the Zastron district Colonel
Bonfield, moving on Vryheid, defeated
the Beers with heavy loss, driving
them from Scheeper's Mex and captur-
ing quantity of arms. The Scheep.
er's Mex movement occurred December
Is.
The Beers were attacked at Vryheid
December 10, and lost 10 killed and
wounded before they retired. The fight
ing lasted all day, the enemy drawing
off at 1880 p. m. British loss was seven
killed and 10 wounded and 80 missing.
Our casualties include two officers, who
died of their wounds.
Writing from Pretoria Sunday, Lord
Kitchener. after announcing that the
released Magaliesburg prisoners had
arrived at Rustenburg, says that the
Boer force divided into two portions,
one moving south and the other west.

A HARD BLOW 70 ENGLAND
REvERsEs OF THE BRITISH
Recent Defeat Mt MaGaliesburg Oc-
CURED One Year After Defeat nj
COlensO-LOndOn Don't Think the
War In Over.

London, Dec l6.-The astounding and
utterly unexpected reverse of the British
at Magaliesburg, the news OF which was
broken to the nation exactly one year
after General Buffers defeat at Colenso
effectually disposes of any hopes that the
war in South Africa is nearly ended and
completely dispels the myth that the OPP
erations there were merely Of guerrilla
nature.
AS Mr.. Loyd-George, liberal, said in the
house of commons: This is one of the
most severe reverses suffered by the Brit
ish, and it is quite evident the war will
drag on many months to come Dewet is
making England the laughing stock OF the
world. We have 100000 men in the field
yet we are unable to protect ourselves
from disaster at the hands of small CON-
mandos drawn from a pastoral people,"
The extent of the defeat has created a
feeling of shame and establishment which
finds free vent. With somewhat cruel CO.
incidence the Northumberland are known
as the Fighting Fifth" The second bat
TALON, te which the captured companies
belong, was one of the heaviest sufferers at
Stormberg year ago. The regiment has
often been pronounced by home and for
eign critics TO be one of the finest in the
British army. All the forebodings and
criticisms which Colenso gave rise to a
year ago have been resurrected by the dis
aster at Maaliesburg. The war office has
nothing to do but to grin and bear it and
trust to the time until General Kitchener's
forces are Transformed into mounted in
fantry and the mounted police gets to
work. Mr.. Broderick has little hope OF
Improvement in the military situation.
But whoever was responsible for the
surrender at Magaliesburg, he is likely to
suffer, for the new war office officials are
determined to make examples of generals
or any other officers guilty Of such gross
mismanagement or worse, which, it
would seem, must have occurred at this
last defeat. This stern attitude on the
part Of the government, however, by no
means decreases the scorn and ignominy
With which certain of the liberal members
of parliament who are avowedly pleased
with the Boer successes are regarded by
the major part of the community. At a
pro Boer meeting Friday, at which Leon.
ard Courtney presided, General Kitchen
er's name was greeted with cries of evil
lain," Butcher" Beast" while mention
of Steyn and Dewet elected loud cheers.
The Pail Mall Gazette today editorially
declares such men as Brien Roberts.
Courtney and Lloyd George ought to be
put in coventry and be not spoken to by
any self respecting Englishman.
The expedient, severe as it is, is likely
to meet with approval in all quarters
not excluding the moderate liberal jour
nails. Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman.
the liberal leader in the house of com
mons, does not escape criticism for tacitly
perpittin ghis alleged followers to take up
such an avowedly anti-British attitude.
