THE TEXAS DESTITUTE.
The Question Of SUPPLYING Country Peo
pis Aid to Rebuild Their Homes Sc
rious Problsm-Orphans Adopted

Houston, Tex, Oct. 3.-The ques'
ton of supplying sufficient assist.
ance to the country people who were
rendered destitute by the recent
storm to enable them to rebuild theii
homes and subsist until they can
raise another crop is serious prob
lem. Capt. c. Taliaferro, who was ap-
pointed by Gov. Sayers to take charge
OF the relief work for Brazoria county
and Galveston county, mainland, q
few weeks ago, makes the following
statement: How these people are
to live during the coming winter IL
more than | can tell unless further
assistance is given them. | think the
territory covered by Harris county,
Galveston mainland, Brazoria, Fort
Bend and Waller counties is the ter
ritory which stands more in need OF
assistance than any part of the coun'
try reached by the Storm"
The official reports are not com.
plete, but they place the number OF
people referred to by Capt. Talia.
ferro in excess of 10000.
The first lot of the 200 Galveston
and coast country orphans which San
Antonio families have agreed to
adopt, arrived there yesterday and

OPERATIONS OF The SIGNAL CORPS.
Lieut.. Col. Allen Submits Report and
Tells Some Interesting Experiences Of
His Msn-Much Line Cutting BY
the Insurgents.

Washington, Sept. 29'-Gen. Mac
Arthur cables the war department
from Manila that on September Ii
Capt. Devereaux Shields, with 81
men Of company E, Twenty-ninth vol
unteer infantry, left Santa Cruz, in
Martinique, for Torrijos, Nothing
has been heard from him since and
it is supposed that the entire party
has been captured with many killed
and wounded. Gen. Macarthur sent
the Yorktown and two gunboats and
two companies of the Thirty-eighth
infantry, under command of Col.
George s. Anderson, to Martinique
Immediately. Anderson confirmed
the report as to the capture of Capt.
Shields and his men but is unable as
yet to give any details. Col. Ander-
son has orders to commence opera
tons Immediately and move relent-
lessly until Shields and his party are
rescued.
Capt. Shields appears to have start
ed at Santa Cruz on a gunboat for
Torrijos, small port, and it is in
ferred that the boat as well as the
body Of troops under that officer has
been captured, for the dispatch makes
no reference to her return. The Off
GERS of the gunboat, the Vinalobes,
were Lieut.. Edward Simpson, COM
handing; Ensign Irwin F. Lands and
Naval Cadet Roe w. Vincent

INSURGENT PAPERS.
A Batch Captured from the Filipi.

THE LETTER OF IHE0 SlyDICO.
The Writer Very Close To A:nirsldo-A
Letter Also from T.. Res,a, ShosiDg
Philippine svmp.th.z-rs Are In-
creAsing Ia America.

Washington, Oct. 3.-The war de-
partment has just received from Gen.
Macarthur by mail another batch of
insurgent papers captured by the
American troops. Among them are
letters from Theo Sandico and Z.
Regio, agents for the Filipino junta
at Hong Kong, which express their
views with much freedom,
In letter addressed by Sandico to
Lieut.. Col. Casimirio Tinio the writer
says in part: 1.-THE present campaign
and some other circumstances have
created in America political situa-
ton that may perhaps produce the
downfall Of Mckinley, which will
signify the triumph of our ideals.
For the same reason the disastrous
war in the INransvaal and more es-
pecially the fierce revolution in China,
have created a political atmosphere
sufficiently critical to cause the birth
OF disturbance of the armed peace
of the great powers that may result
tavorably to our aspirations, because
America may prefer to sacrifice some
OF her plans with respect to the Phil
ippine islands, accepting our indie
pendence under her protectorate,
rather than sustain two wars and run
the risk of losing the whole archi-
pelago. l believe then, under the
conditions SO favorably colored by
the present circumstances, it is neces-
sary that we continue the struggle
and only accept peace on a base OF
independence, although under an
American protectorate.
IF the reelection of Mckinley be
accomplished and the revolution in
China be wiped out and the war in
the Transvaal take no new complies
lions, then will | be the first to ac-
cept the peace that | believe to be
necessary, though it be at the cost
OF acknowledging the sovereignty of
the United States, since l consider
that our forces are now impotent to
defend our sacred and legitimate
rights"
Gen. Macarthur, in transmitting
these papers, says: Possibly Sandi-
co is as close to Aguinaldo as any Of
the leaders who continue in open hos
tility."
Regio, writing from the Hong
Kong iunta to sandico, describes the
anti-imperialist convention in Phila.
delphia and the Boston meeting to
show that the Philippine sympathiz'
ers are increasing in number and that
the victories obtained by the seasoned
Filipino army exercise great inhu-
ence ION the very impressionable
minds of the American people" He
concludes: "This impression is and
will be one of the determined causes
OF our triumph, which triumph will
come soon II we but resist little
more, now that but little is lacking
to change the announced elections, as
with the downfall of Mckinley comes
