IN CAvlTE PROVINCE.

Organized Insurgents Hold strong Posi-.
tions There. I
MANILA, Jan. IAN American adj
vance in Cavite province, south Of
Manila, is expected shortly Reliable
reports from native spies show that
there are upward of 1000 organized in
surgents under arms within mile OF
linus. They are strengthening their
entrenchments and possess artillery.
At Novaltie the Filipino entrenchments
have been much strengthened since
General Schwan's advance. A thou
sand of the enemy are in that vicinity
and there are 600 at San Francisco de
Malabon. From IL to 100 garrison all
the towns in the southern part Of Cavite
province and the same may be said Of
the towns in Batangas province.
The provinces of North Camarines
and South Camarines hold quantities Of
hemp which the people cannot market.
As a consequences the population Of that
part Of Luzon is suffering from lack Of
food. Rice now costs four times its
normal price.
It is estimated that 1000 insurgents
are entrenched at Calamba.
Reports have been received that 2, ,OOO
insurgents are massed at Mount Arayat,
having strong positions which COM
mand steep and narrow trails.

THAT OPEN DOOR
4
Secretary Hay Makes an Import
ant Announcement to the
Cabinet.
Favorable Responses Received
From Five Of the Interested
Powers. .5
Inslres the United States a Full
Share in China's Future De-
velopment.

4 WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The session Of
the cabinet was brief, but it was the
occasion Of an important announcement
by Secretary of State Hay, that the ne
gotiations with the great powers Of Eu-
rope and Japan, to secure q common
understanding for continued .topen
door" policy throughout China had
been eminently successful, and that
favorable responses had been received
from Great Britain, Germany, France,
Russia and Japan. The only country
addressed which has not yet responded
is Italy, and q favorable answer is also
expected from her.
Secretary Hays statement to the cab
met fully confirms the information sent
out from this city last Saturday. The
announcement of the success of the ne
gotiations was extremely gratifying to
the president and cabinet, as it insures
to the United States full share in the
future development of commerce with
the great empire Of China. Secretary
Root was not at the cabinet meeting
and therefore none of the matters
which usually occupy such a large
share Of the attention of the cabinet
was considered.

PREPARING TO CONTEST.

Kentucky Democratic Candidates Serve
Notice ON Republicans.
FRANKFORT, KY, Jan. 8. 3.-Attorneys
for Goebel and other contesting Demo.
cratic candidates for state Offices have
served notices upon the Republican
contestees to take dispositions to be used
as evidence in the pending contesting
cases and the naming of their wit
nesses. The list of witnesses includes
a long array Of prominent men in both
the Republican and anti -Goebel Demo
cratic parties, like Governor Bradley,
Senator Deboe, General Basil w. Duke,
John III. Whallen and others.

CAPTURED GUNS in USE.

Beers Mount the Pieces Taken in the
Battle OF Colenso.
LONDON, Jan. 2.-The Standards cor
respondent at Frere camp says:
Sir Charles Warren's. division is now
nearly complete. Its headquarters will
be at Estcourt. s..> ..,s.
It is rumored that the guns that were
captured from General Butler at CO.
lenso have been mounted in the hills
commanding the drift in the Tugela
river at Springfield. The Beers, it ap-
pears, captured 620 rounds of shrapnel
when they took the guns.
u General Buffers difficulties have been
immeasureably increased by the en-
forced delay since the last action. He
has now before him water and hills
running 16 miles along the line of the
Tugela. These are swarining with the
enemy, posted in positions of great
strength, and bristling with guns,
while the river in front is in full food.
The coming battle will certainly be the
stiffest and probably the most mo-
mentous of the entire campaign.

GOEBEL HAS CONTROL.

of the Kentucky Legislature. ~,
FRANKFORT, KY, Jan. 3.-All doubt
as to the ability of the Goebel Demo
Gratis to organize both houses of the
legislature was demonstrated by the at
tendance in the Democratic caucus
during the evening. In the house eau
Gus all of the 58 Democrats answered to
roll call and participated. In the SEN
ate four Democrats remained out. They
were Senators Alexander, Hayes, Gill
lespie and Roberts. Senator Hill was
also sick and absent, but is not classed
with the dissenters.
In the senate caucus Senator Herold
created sensation by making an al
legged expose of the anti-Goebel lobby,
claiming he had been approached by j.
Whallen of Louisville and offered $400
to remain out Of the caucus. The
money, he said, had been placed in a
box at the Louisville Trust company,
the key of which he passed up to Sena-
tor Goebel, who was presiding over the
caucus, ending his speech by declaring
that he had entered the deal for the
pupose of exposing Whallen and fur
ther that there was not money enough
in the world to make him disloyal to
his partv and his state.

Complete Reorganization of thu MILF

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-It is probable
that the present month will be marked
by complete reorganization of the
military commands in Cuba. The inn
preston prevails that there is to be q
heavy reduction in these commands
and it is intimated that the outcome
will be the creation Of two departments
instead Of the six which originally COM
posed Cuba and the four into which
the island is now divided.

eral French in driving the Beers from
Colesburg has shot . welcome ray of
light through the gloom of the cam
paign in South Africa. Everywhere it
is commented upon as an example of
sound tactics and as an illustration of
what may be done when the right
methods are employed with the Beers.
The government is urged to take the
lesson to heart and see that no stone is
left undisturbed in the endeavor to get
the largest possible forces Of cavalry
and mounted infantry to the front.
Now that General French has got the
Beers on the run the hope is expressed
that he will give them no rest but will
harrass them until they have found
their way across the Orange river,
which is IL miles distant. One impor-
tant feature Of the success Of General
French is that it will have a deterrent
effect upon the disaffected Dutch colo
nists.
There is disposition here to overrate
small victories and skirmishes. It
should be borne in mind that French
has only 1000 men and SO far as the
important points Of the campaign is
concerned the situation is virtually un-
changed.
