Can reliance be placed upon state

SAYS FILIPINOS WON.
Agonoillo Gives French Papers an "Of

AgonoilIo Gives French Papers an "Om-
cial Telegram"
Paris, Feb. 2S.-Senor Agoncillo,
the Filipinos' European representative,
published in all the French papers an
official telegram" announcing that
the American column had been com.
pletely routed near Santo Tomas.
,Batangas, by the Filipino column I'M
der General Malvar. % The Filipinos, 1t
was declared, had taken forty prison
ers, including the American comman-
der and several officers, besides capt
uring 100 horses, many guns and all
the Americans provisions and ammu-
milton. The dispatch goes on to say
that the army Of the Filipinos sis more
and more animated daily by the spirit
Of independence and by a resolution
to continue the fight to the bitter end.
1t may be said that The war Is only
begun, since Aguinaldo has broken up
his army to wage guerrilla warfare
a course which already has produced
the most favorable results"
Agoncillo said: "The Filipinos have
never been conquered, and they never
will be. They have 10000 fighting
men, ammunition is not wanting and
guerrilla warfare. If things take that
final turn, can be continued for centur-
les. The advantages are on our side.
This every Filipino knows"
Although Agoncillo spoke with great
earnestness, he Is willy oriental, and
undoubtedly q brag.

CARNEGIE AGAIN SUED.
Prick Coke Company Stockholders Want
an Accounting.


Pittsburg, Feb. 27.-Fresh trouble
for the Carnegie Steel company has
appeared The minority stockholders
of the III. G. Prick Coke company fled
a suit to annul an alleged contract
whereby coke is being furnished the
Carnegie company at $1.35 ton.
The suit is sensational in some of
it's aspects, as the Carnegie company
Is charged with fraud in securing the
contract, having, as alleged, juggled
with the stock until members Of the
Carnegie company secured positions as
directors of the coke company, there
by enabling them to manipulate the
coke property to the benefit of the
steel company.
This suit was precipitated by the
recent action of Ii. G. Frick against the
Carnegie company, whereby he seeks
an accounting. In this case the plain
tiffs are endeavoring to restrain the
directors from delivering any more
coke to the Carnegie company at the
price Of $1.35 a ton, and to prevent
settlement for coke already delivered
under the alleged contract, which has
five years to run. The court is also
asked to annul the contract and order
ali accounting.
