Two Thousand Americanized.

Manila. Dec. 4.-Sunday in Vigan was
a great day for the American cause.
Twenty two hundred natives of the re-
gion, nearly all fighting rebels, crowded
the church and took the oath of allegiance
to the United States. The oath was adj
ministered by the priest. All but 500 of
these sworn were bolomen. The number
included the 1900 bolomen who had pre-
viously surrendered.
The proceedings in the church occupied
the entire day and included an address by
General Young and an exhortation by the
priest. Scarcely any rebels remain in the
vicinity of Santa Maria.
General Young attributes this fact to
three cause.-the reelection of President
Mckinley, the arrival of a stronger body
of troops and the especially rigid enforce
ment of war measures, and the deporta-
ton of prisoners to Manila. He reports
that it is necessary to occupy all the bar.
racks in order to protect the natives from
the vengeance of the Tagalog raiders.

PRES. KRUGER TURNED DOWN
EMPEROR WILLIAM REGRETS
He Is Unable to Receive Him-kru-
ger Proceeds to HoIIand-EngIish
Are DeIighted-French Nevspa-
pers Roast German Emperor.

Berlin :, Dec. AIR. Kruger has
abandoned his proposed visit to Berlin,
owing to the receipt of an official init
nation that Emperor Willlamh regrets
that, in consequence of previous ar
rangements, he will be unable to re-
ceive HIM. The Boer statesman will
therefore proceed direct from Cologne
for Holland. He telegraphed to this
effect.
The Cologne Gazette, in an inspired
communication, says: Mr.. Kruger's
visit is not agreeable to Germany. his
aim being to obtain Intervention in
South Africa 1t would be grave po-
litical mistake, it would be even a great
crime, to allow him to entertain even
a spark of hope that Germany will rem
der him any practical support"
This declaration is accompanied with
reproaches, Mr.. Kruger beng charged
with having encouraged useless
guerrilla warfare and having disre-
garded Germany's advice when he
might have still followed it."
The press generally strikes the same
note.
The emperor's intimation was con-
veyed to Mr.. Kruger by the German en-
voy at Luxembourg, who arrived at
Cologne today.
London, Dec. 4.-Morning papers
comment with unbounded enthusiasm
upon the abrupt snub administered by
Emperor William to Mr.. Kruger, which
is the more noticeable when contrasted
with the Boer statesman's successful
visit to France. The snub is regarded
as further evidence of the good rela
lions existing between Germany and
Great Britain. Emperor Williams tel
egram to the German minister at Lux
embourg was the outcome of a dispatch
which Mr.. Kruger sent to the kaiser
on arriving at the German frontier:
ION reaching German soil I haster
to express to your majesty my feelings
of devotion and sympathy"
The official explanation Offered
through the German press is that steps
had not been taken to ascertain wheth
er Mr.. Kruger's visit would be agree
able. The Boer delegates admit the!
have received a serious check and Mr.
Kruger is said to be extremely dis
heartened.
There is a rumor that he had been re
quested to avoid Belgian territory.
