AGUINA[DO DOHHAS77'7 HAS -
 EVIDENTLY LIED
Report Shows That FiIipinoS Did Not Capture Guns Lost
 By Americans.

Washington, June 6.-The president today sent the senate the reply to the statement made by Aguinaldo in his true version of the Philippine revolution that the Span iards had captured six guns from the American soldiers in front of Manila be- fore the surrender of that city, and that they were recaptured by the Filipinos and returned to the Americans.
 General F. V. Greene, who was in charge of the American troops after questioning the battalion and battery commanders who were engaged against the Spaniards at the time, says in his report to Secretary Root: '"The statements made by Aguinaldo are absolutely without foundations; each and every one of them is untrue; the United States did not fall back; did not abandon a single rifle or a single field gun; did not make a precipitate retreat; the Filipinos did not rush to our assistance; did not re- capture the rifles and field guns, and did not return them to the Americans. The Filpinos took no part in the engagements between the Spaniards and American troops. Every single statement in the ex- tract quoted in your letter is false."

GENERAL FUND=fS ALMOST DEPLETED
County Temporarily suspends Payments nue to Peculiar Combination of Circumstances
 Only S5 ,0oo on Hand

Notwithstanding the fact that Jefferson county is one of the richest in the state and pays into the state treasury one-s4Nth of the entire taxation of the common wealth, she finds herself in a strange pre- dicament and has been forced to tenn porarily suspend payments out of the gem eral fund, due to a combination of circum- stances
 As a result of the suspension, county of ficials and all persons holding claims against the county will have to wait until November for their money.
 The depleted fund.- which contains only $7000, is according to a statement given out of the treasury office, the result of the reduction of 10 cents per $100 in taxation made by the board of revenue last fall, the calling in of $250OO worth of county bonds, and the heavy drain for jury expenses.
 According to the treasurers' statement on May 1, 1900, there was on hand $49,227S6 against $l06, ,S2007 on the same date in 1S93
 The present condition will probably result in an increase of cents per S1O0 in the tax rate, although the drain on the treas ury next year will not be so heavy.

Or pain in the loins and small of the back. Is occasioned by congestion of blood in that part caused by exposure to cold or a draft of air, checking the precipitation. The counter irritant and diffusive stimuant properties of Railways Ready Relief ad- mirably adapt it for the cure of this dis ease. The Ready Relief should be applied to a large surface and well rubbed in. It is quite wonderful how readily it relieves the pain of this distressing complaint In some cases the pain is extreme that there Is Hanger of inflammation setting in and eX- Tending to the kidneys. Tn that case take at once dose of the Regulating Pills and at the same time keep up the application of the Ready Relief, and the most obstinate ease will yield to this treatment. Plasters in general do harm in these cases of pain tn the side and back-they gum ua the pores and prevent the proper action oe the perspiratiory glands and stop the natural sXhala lions of the skin.

The StockaGe

The question of building a stockade was taken up at this juncture. Chairman Will Hams of the special committee to which the question had previously been referred, recommended for the committee that the stockade be built on the site of the old crematory, at Avenue and Seventh street. In making the recommendation MT. Williams said the committee had had sev- eral meetings, and that it had given the subject of a stockade careful considera- tion, and that it had had in view several things, but that it had finally decided on building a stocllade on city property for merly used a crematory. The cost of the building, lie said, would be approxi- mately s3.50c.
 He said the situation confronting the city demands immediate action; that the jail is crowded, and that the building of a stock ade afforded the only means of relief to the situation. He said it was his opinion that within two weeks from the time work be- gins on the building. it will be ready to re- ceive convicts; that the committee realized that there would be some fixed charges in maintaining the Stockade, but that the ad- vantages would more than offset these He said that Charles Wheelock, architect, had drawn up plans for the building. which had been accepted by the committee, all agreeing to it except Alderman Camp, who was absent from the meeting.

Alderman Daiy Objected

Alderman Daly of the Ninth ward, in which ward the committee recommended that the stockade be located. said he was in favor of a stockade, but that he did not want it in a district that had no police pro- tecion. He said it would be an injustice to the citizens of that part of the city.
 Alderman Camp said he was satisfied the committee had done what it thought for the best interest, but he did not think 1t advisable to locate the stockade at the place selected. He said if the city intended spending Si,000 for stockade, it might as well put that amount into good jail on the site occupied by the present one, as a new jail would have to be built soon any way. He agreed with Alderman Daly that the 6)ckade should not be located. in portion of the city without police protec- tion.
 Alderman Rainbow endorsed the report of the committee. He said the stockade was the right thing to have. He said that some of the convicts were in for two years and that they should be provided some place in which they could sleep. He approved the committees recommendation as to location and added that if it had recommended site in his ward for the stockade he would not have objected.
 Alderman McAnally stated that he was of the opinion that some sort of relief ought to be given, but he favored hiring out the convictS.
