AGG|E STILL ON DECK
Natives Report He Was Shot
in the Shoulder.
Marchs Men Nearly Dead From The Long Vain
Chase. D;sloyaIty of Officials Ap-
pointed by Americans.
(By the Associated Press.)

Manila, June Ga dispatch from Can
don, dated June 4th, says Major p. c.
Marchs men, of the Thirty third regi-
ment, returned to Candon that day by
steamer from Aparri. A majority of the
men are ready for the hospital. They are
thin and weak. having trvelled $50 miles
in the mountains, during which they suf-
fered greatly from hunger. OF the fifty
horses which started with the battalion
thirteen survived. The remainder died
on the march or fell into canyons. The
battalion practically collapsed at Plat,
thirty miles from Tuguearao, as the re-
suit of fevers and exhaustion, Eighty
seven of the men were conveyed from
Plat to Muguegarao in bull carts and
those falling on the way were carried in
litters by the Igorottis with the column.
The officers accompanying Major March
were Captains Henry L. Jenkinson and
Edward Davis; Lieutenant Carroll Power
and Frank l.. Case and Wr. John O.
Greenwalt. assistant surgeon. They say
it is all guess work as to whether Agui-
naldO was shot. Before the Ameri-
cans struck Sagat the insurgent com
mander divided his forces into parties of
ten following different trails. The Off
Ger shot was perhaps Aguinaldo's secre-
tary or adjutant. The report among the
natives of the region is that Aguinaldo
was wounded in the shoulder.
The papers secured show that nearly
all the presidents installed by the Amer
leans in General Young's territory are
treacherous and have been making regu-
lar reports to Aguinaldo for the DISPOSE
ton and movements of the American
troops and they have been collecting and
forwarding taxes.
The captured papers also prove the
disloyalty of the native telegraph opera
tors whom the Americans retained on the
Cayagan Valley line. When Tirona sur
rendered the Filipino forces in that sec
ton, these operators professed loyalty
and took the oath of allegiance. But it
is now shown that they had been send
ing Agunaldo copies of important tele-
grams exchanged between the American
officials.
Letters were also found relating to
large contributions forwarded to Aguinal-
DO from Spanish and other foreign busi-
ness men.

PAUSE At PRETORIA
lie British Stop to Breathe.
The Beers Get Safely
Away.
(By the Associated Press.)

London. June 7.-(3::15 a m. Thurs
day)-Military operations in South Africa
are apparently at a standsull For a
day or two the tired troops of Lord Rob-
erts are resting, and he is filling the mag
azines and warehouses; at his new base,
Pretoria, preparatory to long chase af-
ter the retiring Beers in the direction
of Lydenburg His cavalry are probably
seeking TO intercept Commandant Gen
eral Botha.
Lydenburg the district into which the
provisions originally destined for Preto-
ria. have been diverted and where a cart
ridge factory has been erected and reserve
supplies of all sorts are stored is a vol
canic region of fertile valleys, enclosed
by great ramparts of precipitous rocks,
penetrated by narrow, winding passes.
There are herds of cattle in the valleys,
and there is much native labor available
for fortifying.
Probably the most important Boer army
is at Laing's Mex, where both sides are
passive. General Rundle and General
Brabant have withdrawn a little south
ward.
Part of the forces lately at Pretoria
are reported to have gone westward to
meet Baden Powell and to make a show
of holding the country through which he
and General Hunter are moving.
A dispatch to the Daily Telegraph from
Newcastle, dated Tuesday, describes the
Beers there as an unorganiZed rabble.
Nevertheless the correspondent AYERS,
they hold strong positions with the pros
pect of a safe retreat toward Lyden-
burg.
1t is understood at Newcastle that the
British Government has approached the
Natal Government with a proposition that
Natal should voluntarily renounce local
self-government for a time in order that
a general system of crown government
may be instituted for all South Africa,
leading in the course of time to fedora
tion and the subsequent autonomy of the
various States simultaneously.

London, June 6.-It appears evident
that the Boer commander in chief, Cen

from Pretoria in good order, probably

view of joining President Kruger. So

dispatched to attack the boxers have
fought an engagement quite close to
Pellin. Many were killed on both

in consequence of the representa-
