FILIPINO LOSSES.
Gen Macarthur Sends Statistics Of
the Killed, Wounded and Cap
tured During the War.

Washington. June 5.-Secretary Root
made answer to the senate resolution
inquiring IS to the number of Fill pin os
killed and wounded and the number of
prisoners taken since the insurrection
began. Having no detailed informa-
tion on the subject. the secretary
cabled the inquiry to Gen. Macarthur,
commanding at Manila, and received
the following response. which was SUBJ
mitted to congress:
Manila, June 4, 190O.-Adjutant Gener-
al. WashingtOn: With reference to your
telegram of 22d ultimo. Filipinos, killed,
,7S0; wounded, 2.104: captured and sur
rendered. 1924: number prisoners in our
possession, about 1000. No systematic
record of Filipino casualties at these
headquarters. Foregoing compiled from
large number of reports made immedi-
ately after engagements is as close an
approximation as is now possible owing
to wide distribution of troops. More ac-
curate report would take weeks to pre-
pare. Number reported killed probably In
excess of accurate figures, number re-
ported wounded probably much less. as
Filipinos managed to remove most of their
wounded from field, and comparatively
few fell into our hands. Officers of high
rank and dangerous and suspicious men
have been retained as prisoners. most
other men discharged on field as soon as
disarmed. Purpose to release all but
very few prisoners at early date.

CALLED TO ORDER.
Opening of Convention of Fedora ton
of Women's Clubs at Milwaukee
Mrs. loves Address,

Milwaukee, June 6.-The opening of
the fifth biennial convention of the
General Federation of Women's clubs
Tuesday was most animated.
The chief feature of the opening ses-
sion was Mrs. loves address, which is
declared by everyone to be one of the
finest speeches ever delivered before
the convention. The applause which
greeted and interpolated it and the
prolonged applause that marked it's
close might have been construed as an
evidence of their support for another
term of office. The address was not
only masterful but practical, and she
made splendid impression by her plea
for the working women.
This address was preceded by words
of welcome from David S. Rose, mayor
of Milwaukee; Mrs. James Sidney Peck,
on behalf of the Woman's club, of Mil
waukee, and Mrs. Arthur Neville for
the Wisconsin federation. The re-
sponse was by the vice president, Mrs.
Sarah Platt-Decker, who was given an
ovation and who in turn said some very
clever things.
Succumbing to pressure brought to
bear from delegates all over the coun-
try, Mrs. Lowe announced about mid
night that she had consented, contrary
to her expectation when she came to
the convention. to allow her name to be
used as candidate for the presidency.

Peking, June 1.-THE situation is
growing steadily worse. Events move
with such rapidity, and affairs, owing
to the excitement of the natives, are so
critical that the foreign ministers held
frequent meetings. They feel the need
of a free hand for energetic action,
without a perpetual reference to the
home governments Sir Claude Mac
donald, the British minister, is wiring
for IS more marines. Native employees
who have returned from Feng Tai say
they left the boxers openly drilling in
the adjacent village. A strong impe-
rial edict issued Wednesday evening
censures the ''cowardliness of the i'm
perial troops and orders the viceroy
of Pe-Chi-Li and Gen. Jung Lu immedi-
ately to suppress the boxers.
Shanghai, June 1.-THE soldiers dis
patched to attack the boxers have
fought an engagement quite close to
Peking. Many were killed on both
Sides.
Shanghai, June 6.-The China Ga
zette says it has the highest authority
for stating that the dowager empress
has ordered the tsung-li-yamen to face
all Europe rather than to interfere
with the boxer movement.
Washington, June 6.-At the cabinet
meeting Tuesday Secretary Hay read
a cablegram from Minister Conger at
Peking to the effect that the situation
in China was very Unsatisfactory, and
that even in Peking great alarm was
felt. The minister will be given wide
discretion in dealing with these new
conditions,
