ON AGUINALDO'S TRAIL.
Former Filipino Chief to Start i'm Pur-
suit Of the Chieftain With
100 Natives.

Manila, Nov. 20 General Macabo-
los, the former Filipino chief, is pre-
pared to start in pursuit of Aguinaldo
with 100 picked natives, supported 10y
American troops. Other eN-rebel Fill
ipiuos will be used in campaigning in
the country. Their offers have not
been formally made yet, but they are
ready if the authorities villa accept
their services.
Aguinaldo, it is supposed is IN
Northern Luzon, according to state
ments made 10y eX-rebel leaders now
in Manila confirmed from other
sources.
Aglipay, a renegade native priest
long an insurgent leader in Northern
Luzon, has written to friends in Ma

ISTHMIAN TREATY
To Push Ratification in Senate to Aid
llsthmian Canal.

New York, Nov. l9-Plans are be-
ing made by the administration, ac-
cording to Washington dispatch to
the Herald, to press with vigor forlthe
ratification by the Senate :of the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty'in its original
form as the first step towards con-
structing an isthmian canal.
This action is likely to precipitate
one of the memorable contests of the
coming session of Congress. OPPOSE
ton to the treaty is based lupon the
fact that it provides no Notifications
shall be erected on the canal. The
Hepburn bill, which has passed the
house, provides for the construction
and protection by the secretary of
war of a Nicaraguan canal. In addi-
ton Senator Davis has brought be-
fore the Senate from the committee on
fo"eig IN relations an amendment that
nothing in the treaty shall restrict
measures which the United States may
find necessary for the defense of the
United States.
The Davis amendment was copied
from the tenth clause Of the CONSTANT
nople treaty, securing the neutrality
OF the Suez canal.
John A. Kasson, Of Iowa, special
commissioner and formerly minister
of the United States to Germany and
Austria, supports the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty.
1T is maniiestly absurd TO attempt
to make private national snap OF
the exclusive control and use of a
great interoceanic waterway" he said
in an interview. ITO establish such
conditions 10y law would be II challenge
to all nations to combine against
us and to compel us to dc
what we ought to do in the spirit
of modern civilization, and in recip.
rocity for the privileges we enjoy in
the eastern world"
No predictions can be made as to
the vote on the treaty.

too expensive and do not allow large profits.
Mr.. Major tells us that one Of the elements OF

cases altered slightly in color and odor by the
addition of cheap and useless materials

twenty-five cents a bottle, and when dealer

RAISE MORE HOGS.
Kansas Supply not Great Enough to
Keep Kansas City Packing
Houses Going.

Topeka, Nov. 79.-"Why doesn't
Kansas raise more hogs ?" said a
representative of the Armour Packing
Company here today. "Hogs are val
liable property and money can be made
in large chunks by raising them.
There is a big shortage OF hogs now.
We have to go to Iowa and other
Northern states to get them. There
is no reason why Kansas shouldn't
raise enough to supply the Kansas
City packing houses"
The reports in the Office of the state
board of agriculture show that the
supply of hogs is decreasing in Kan
sas. In 1898 there were 2, 1855, OH hogs
in the state; in 1899 there were p, 340,-
995; in 1900 only 2,2s6, 1874, decrease
of almost 500, 600 in two years.

MIR. ROOT PLEASED
Says he Finds Things in Cuba in a
Very Satisfactory Condition

Santiago De Cuba, Nov. l9.-Scc-
rotary Root and General Wood this
morning inspected the Moro bar
racks and the garrison. Mr.. Root eN
pressed himself as very much pleased
with the condition of the port and the
appearance of the soldiers.
At noon the party visited thee san
Juan battlefield, and this afternoon
they rode over the new government
highway. This thoroughbred which
is work in which General. Wood
takes great pride, is probably one Of
the finest in the world. It was con-
structed at cost OF $40 OOOaper mile
over mountain range, from the sum-
NIT of which there is u superb view of
the valley, city and ocean, Mr.. Root
said he had never seen anything more
impressive than the outlook.
Tomorrow the party will go by
yacht to Daiquiri, where the United
States troops first landed, and will
ride over land to the city, following
the route of the army.
Mr.. Root says he finds the Cubans
more tractable than he had expected
and he thinks they are satisfied with
the American occupation and appre-
ciate the efforts of the Americans to
improve conditions in the island. He
will.return to the United States, full
of enthusiasm for a continuance of
improvements, particularly in educa-
ton and sanitation. Santiago he
considers in a better sanitary condi-
ton than any other Cuban city he has
visited.

and Governor Wood are today in
speeding the Notifications of Santiago.

LETTER FROM GEN BELL
A Soldier on the Harm Done by Anti
Imperialism Agitation.

Kansas City, Mo-, November 20
Brigadier General Frank j. Bell,
now in the Philippines, in letter to
personal friend in Kansas City, en-
tertains the same view of the EN-
barassment caused the government by
continued political discussions of the
Philippine question in the United
States that were expressed in
General Lawton's famous letter. In
the letter General Bell says:
THE Democratic party hasn't the
faintest conception of the injury it is
doing its government by the attitude
it has assumed on the Philippine
question. | cannot fail to recognize
that it is inevitable that the American
government cannot get away from
these islands even if it wished to and
| think man is an ass who acts in
such way as to make the task of his
government harder"

FIELD GUNS IN CHINA
General Chaffee Says Americans
Artillery Was an Unqualified
Supcpgg

Washington, Nov. 19.-Some d.s-
paraging criticism upon the American
field gun as exhibited in the Chinese
campaign, led Adiutant General Cor
bin to address the following inquiry to
General Chaffee:
"Adjutant Generals Office, Nov. Is,
l900-Chaffee, Pekin: Asserted our
light artillery guns did not meet all
requirements service compared with
other armies. What are the facts?-
Corbin."
The following response has been
received:
"Pekin, Nov. l6.-Adjutant General,
Washington: Replying to yours Nov.
II, Our battery better than battery any
other army in campaign. German
battery just arrived some features
superior to ours. Powder charge in
cases fired with trigger like pistol.
More rapid fire result. Brake ar
rangement also better. Caliber gun
not quite so large. Our battery highly
praised, particularly so by General
Linovitch, who said he felt like taking
of his hat whenever he saw it. No
battery so effective as ours in attacks
on Pekin. Chaifee.h

What Might Have Been.

y man who is well posted in rail-
road matters and who has lived for
thirty years in this part of the coun-
try, tells sad story of "what might
have been" in connection with lola.
Ibid you ever think what town
this would be if lola had the Chanute
railroad division? Think of S42, 900
month railroad money being added to
the $40, 900 a month factory money pe-
ing distributed here. Wouldn't it be
immense! 1t would make this town
the metropolis OF southeastern Kansas
within five years.
"And," he continued, "if you would
realize the whole of what might have
been you should consider what the
present would be had lola received the
division shops az at first planned.
Do you know that the first caboose
hauled out of Chanute for Pittsburg
was labeled Nebraska, Topeka, lola
& Memphis? 1t was. And if youwill
examine the railroad you will find
that the original survey came right
toward Savonburg and lola, but for
some reason switched west and entered
Chanute

NO PUNISHMENT AT ALL.
Penalties Inflicted by Chinese Govern
ment on Boxer Leaders Amount
to Nothing.

London, Nov. 20.-Dr. Morrison,
wiring to the Times from Pekin, Sun
day, says: "In communicating the
punishment edict, dated Sian Flu, Nov
ember 13, to the foreign ENJOYS, Ii
Hung Chang submits it as 1.-THE final
punishment the court is able:to innict,
and repeats the stereotyped:plea of all
Chinese plenipotentaries, namely, that
the emperor threatens himself and
Prince Ching with severe punishment
if they fail to induce the representa-
tives of the powers to accept the com
promise.
"The mildness of the sentences ex-
cites ridicule and strengthens the min
listers in their determination TO demand
the death penalty. The 'punishments
are illusory. Prince Tuan is merely
banished to his own home and others
undergo a merely nominal lowering of
rank. Perpetual Imprisonment means
a life of honored retirement.
Large numbers of, Southern
Chinese, now residing in Picking, fear
ing futher retribution during the
winter, are preparing to leave for the
South"
According to the Shanghai cores
pondent of the times, it is asserted on
good authority in Tien Tsin that there
are still some missionaries surviving
at Pal Yuen Flu under the protection
of the mandarins.

A SCULPTOR'S GIFT.
Bust of Louisa NJ. AlcOtt to Have a
Place at the University.

Lawrence, Kas., Nov. l9.-Frank E.
Elwell, sculptor of. New York,
modelled bust of the author, Louisa
NJ. Alcott, which has been presented
by him to the University of Kansas.
The bust will be unveiled and formally
presented by the sculptor early in
December.
The bust is intended as tribute to

Women, who, it is said, befriended
the sculptor in his youth andl eXerted
upon him an influence to which he at
tributes in a great measure his success

the University of Kansas as recipi-
ent of the gift by his intimate friend,
Franklin b. Sanborn, who visited
Lawrence some time ago, the guest of
Alfred Whitman, the original of the
Laurie" in Miss Alcott's Little
Women.

WAR IN EARNEST.
Administration is Tired of COncilia-
ton Methods in the Philippine
Rebellion.

New York, Nov. 9.-Forbearance
has ceased to be a military virtue in
the Philippines, according to news
that comes from the war department.
So says Washington dispatch to the
Herald. Lord Kitchener's plan of
operations in South Africa, harsh
though it APPEARS to be, appeals to
officials of the war department, and
during the coming campaign in the
Philippines no mercy is to be extended
to those in active rebellion or who
give aid and comfort to the insurgents.
The administration according to a
high official, has become weary of the
long drawn out war. 1t has been
conciliatory in dealing with the in
surgents, and the efforts to accom-
plish peace by this means have met
with contempt. It is now proposed to
give them taste of real war, and,
though the innocent may suffer, it is
only by this lmeans, it is believed,
that the guilty can be reached.
When Secretary Root returns to
Washington final instructions will be
cabled to Major General Macarthur
relative to the operations to be con-
Quoted.
There is no reason to believe that
General Macarthur contemplates de-
voting his principal attention at first
to the northern part of Luzon. Agui-
naldo is believed to be in the noun,
tains of Benguet.

BRITISH BUYING MULES.
Captain Smith of the English Army
Again Making Purchases.

Kansas City, Nov. l9.-The Eng
fish government is buying as
many mules in Kansas City as at
any time since the Boer war began.
Captain S. N. Smith of the British
army was at the stock yards today
and inspected $50 mules for shipment
at once to Cape Town by way of New
Orleans. The buying has been going
on steadily during the past eighteen
months at the average of about 300
ami mails a week. Practically all of
the horse and mule firms at the stock
var DIS are represented in the sales.
Captain Smith said the demand now
was principally for mulesfor garrison
duty in various parts of the Boer
country, and to replace losses sus-
tanned i'm the course of the war.
