BAD NEWS FROM MANILA.
Rebels Capture Quantities Of Guns and
Ammunition.

San Francisco, March 26.--The
steamer Hong Kong Maru brings from
Hong Kong news of surprising state
OF affairs existing in the Philippines.
The correspondent OF Hong Kong
paper sent the following uncensored
letter to his journal:
Manila, Feb. l3.--It is q strange
state OF affairs that exist in the Philip
pines today. Improvement is visible
in nearly every quarter. Civil govern
ments are rapidly being established in
every town Of Importance, and garri-
sons and patrols are In process Of extern
sion wherever Americans hold territory,
and yet it is an undeniable fact that
since January / the insurgents have
captured number OF rifles and quanti-
ties OF ammunition from the Ameri-
cans, almost equalling the sum total Of
American captures from the insurgents.
Besides this, the casualty rate for
the last two weeks will come very
close to being heavier than at any other
period of the insurrection, with the ex-
ception OF the time OF the outbreak and
the fortnight beginning with March 25.
1899. These are hard facts to swallow,
and somewhat alarming into the bar
gain.
"The threatened guerrilla warfare
that was heard Of on every side seems
TO be stern reality, and parties OF so
or smaller numbers are ambushed and
jumped" day after day. Supply
trains, small escorts and scouting par
ties are the special objects OF attack,
and the country seems to be full OF
small. rowing bands, waiting at every
convenient cover until the prey is
caught.
In one or two instances heavy pa
trcls have quickly avenged these raids
by setting ont Immediately and hunting
down and killing as many OF the ma
rauders as possible. These lessons
have not been forgotten, and in the inn
mediate districts there have been no
repetitions OF the trouble.
The authorities are giving the ques.
tion considerable attention, and every
effort will be made to insure the public
safety. for on this depends the future OF
the country. England's policy in
India is frequently discussed, and her
swift and severe punishments are looked
upon as model peacemakers. The arms
were probably captured from commis-
sary trains"

SEA GOLD DREDGING
Secretary Roots Reply to the
Senate'S Resolution.
MERELY PERMITS GRANTED
No Law 70 Prevent Prospecting Under
water II Navigation Is Not
Obssructed.

Washington, March 26.- Secretary
Root today transferred TO the senate
his reply TO the resolution requesting
information on the war departments
practice Of granting permits for gold
dredging or the Alaskan coast. He
states that no concessions or grants TO
exeavate the gold-bearing ned OF the
sea ut or in the vicinity OF Cape Nome
or In other Alaskan waters have been
made by the secretary OF war or any
other official OF the war department,
but that permits have been given un-
der the navigation act OF March 8, 1899,
TO excavate or dredge for gold at points
where there can be no hindrance to
navigation. He states that prospectors
must secure such permits to avoid liza
bility to heavy fines under the act.
The secretary adds:
"As this statute was designed solely
for the protection Of navigation, it has
been the practice OF the war depart
ment TO grant permits to persons desir-
ing TO excavate for any purpose when
the work Is not such as unjustly to af.
feet navigation, and is otherwise law
full. Permits thus granted sre not ex-
elusive; they do not preclude any
number of similar permits applicable
to the same territory; they are not
grants or concessions. and they confer
no rights whatever. except immunity
