A MESSAGE TO KRUGER.

schoolDoy-Has = $4,000 Signatures.
Philadelphia, April II. One of the
greatest demonstrations of sympathy,
both in the number Of participants
and enthusiasm displayed, ever held in
this city for any foreign nation occur
red last night when the Academy OF
Music was crowded for the purpose of
taking part in the Philadelphia school
boys ralley. The primary object OF
the rally was to send a message ut
greeting to President Kruger signed
by $1,000 pupils of the schools OF this
city. SO great was the crush. mostly
of the younger generation, that many
thousands were unable to get near the
doors. and the mass of struggling peo-
pie was entertained by music while the
meeting inside was in progress. Judge
William n. Ashman, of the Orphans
court, presided, and those who adj
dressed the meeting were Webster
Davis, w. Bourke Cochran, ex-District
Attorney George s. Graham of this
city; T. Louter Vessels, Blocmfontein.
o. +. S., and Thomas J. Meek, a pupil
of the high school of this city. Edwin
Markham, Il poet. recited his lode to
Lincoln" Three hundred singers Of
the United Singing Societies Of Phila-
delphia, sang the Transvaal volkslied
and American. patriotic songs. After
the speechuaking was over James +.

called to the stage by means of a regu.
lation call box and was given the mes
sage signed by the school boys with In

ger. The messenger. accompanied by
a committee of three high school boys.

Boer Chief Of Stall killed.
London, April 8.-Thes war Office has
received the Following dispatch, also
from Lord Roberts. dated Thursday:
..Methuen- telegraphs from Boshof Qn
the Orange Free State, q little northeast
of Kimberley as follows:
!. surrounded Gen. Vilebois-Mareuil and
a body of Beers to-day. None escaped.

Of the yeomanry; wounded, about seven
men. The attack lasted four hours. The
corps behaved very well. Our force was
composed of yeomanry. the Kimberley
mounted corps and the fourth battery Of
artillery"
Cen. De VilebOis-Mareuil was the
chief of staff Of the Boer army. He
was about fifty years old and is said
to have been responsible for many Of
tho, Roer successes in Natal and later
in Cane Colony ard the southern part
If the Orange Free State. It is said
that he entered the Boer service
merely because war was his trade. He
went through u number Of campaigns
in the French army. ISL

LONDON. April S.-The R'oemfontein

telegraphing Thursday, says: THE
Beers are apparently making an at
tempt to redeem their promise to re-
take Bloenlfontein. A considerable
force has moved south through Thaba
N'Chu. Gen. fuckers isolation at
Karee is o apparent than real,
Since the open ground north Of Bloem-
fontein offers small opportunity for
Boer tactics. They may possibly en-
gage him to distract attention from

anxiously awaited,

ing to a dispatch from Pretoria, all
British subjects have been ordered to

Manila, April 11-An interesting top
ic of conversation in army circles is the
investigation Of Brig. Gen. Funston's
execution of two Filipinos and the pos
sibility Of q court martial resulting
therefrom.
The story is that the Filipihos cap
tured three Maccabebe scouts who
We're crossing the country near San
Isidro, and were preparing to kill them
when one of the Maccabebes escaped
and found Gen. Funston with q scout
ing party near. The man guided the
Americans to the rescue Of his COM
panions, and when the troops ap-
preached the Filipinos fed, leaving the
Maccabebes. Several Of the Filipinos
were shot and Gen. Funston captured
two of them, took them to the village
square and hanged them without trial,
as a warning to the Filipinos.
The present method of warfare and
stances of the mutilation Of prisoners
have incensed the American soldiers to
such a degree that they feel justified in
making reprisals, which has been done
on several occasions lately.
There is a strong feeling among the
residents and friendly Filipinos that
the Chinese general, Pana, who sur
rendered to Brig. Gen. Kobbe, after
terrorizing the province of Panay,
should be severely punished. 1t is
pointed out that his caree has been
more that of a brigand than of a sol
der, as he looted and extorted money
by torture from the wealthy natives
and burned alive some of his followers
who intended to desert him. 1t is be-
lieved Pana surrendered because he
feared his own men, and that he ex-
pected to be paroled like other officers
and enjoy the fruits of his brigandage.

Apartment House Tenants Almost In
n Panic.
New York, April ia lace curtain
blown against Il stove in apartments
on the fourth floor of the apartment
building known as the Washington, at
LOG East 1OJth street. started q blaze
that quickly spread to the fifth floor
and to the top floors of the Jefferson
apartments adjoining. The utmost
excitement prevailed in the two
houses. Women rushed out with their
jewel cases and valuables. Several
men who were passing assisted in get
ting the inmates out Of the burning
building. 1t was at least twenty-five
minutes before the first fire apparatus
reached the spot, and by that time the
fire had gained a great Roadway and
had enveloped the roof and top story
Of the Jefferson apartment building. A
second alarm was sent in. Another
delay was caused by the apparatus
being present at Tenth street and
Fifth avenue. This caused four alarms
to be sent in. The tiremen fought the
fire from the roofs of adjoining build
ings. and after hard work succeeded
in getting it under control. Loss, $780,
600.

Amendment.
Washington, April 1O.-After some
further discussion the senate yester-
day rejected the sectarian school

ton bill offered by Mr.. Jones of Ar
kansas, by a vote Of 30 to IL. AS has
been the practice for two or three
years the free homes measure was Of
fered rs an amendment to the bill, but
it was ruled out on a point of order
that it was general legislation and
therefore not germnne to an apprOpria-
ton bill. Without division the bill was
passed. The measure carries about
$S,414,OOO. An unsuccessful effort was
made to agree upon a, date for q vote
on the resolution relative to the seating
Of Mr.. Quay as senator from Pennsyl-
vania. The effort will be renewed to,
day. During the last two hours of
the senate the Alaskan civil code bill
vas under consideration. An amend
ment by Mr.. Hansbrough regarding
locations in the Cape Nome district
created a warm discussion.
Yesterday was a dull day in the
house. The agricultural appropriation
bill was under discussion and was
made the excuse for an irregular de-
bate on various topics. Good progress
was made with the bill after the close
Of general debate, twenty-five of the
fOrty-seven pages being completed be-
fore adjournment.

La Crosse, Wis, April 11.-An east.
bound Milwaukee stock train struck a
buggy last evening at Bangor, near
here, hurting Annie Arenz into eternity
and breaking the legs, arms and col

are so serious that it is feared he can
not recover. A third occupant of the
vehicle jumped and narrowly escaped
death. They were hurled eighty feet
and the body of the young lady was
horribly mangled. Strangely enough,
the horse escaped injury, but the bug
gy was broken to pieces.
