our soldiers were towards and boosted
openly that we were afraid of them.
humor were always prevalent that
our army would be attacked at once.
With great tact and patience the
commanding general had held his
FORCES in check, and he now made a
a effort to preserve the peace by
appointing a commission to meet a
similar body appointed by Aguinaldo
10 confer with regard to the situation
or atfairS and to arrive at a mutual I'M
derStanding of the intent, purposes,
aims and desires of the Filipino people
and of the people of the United States
Six sessions were held, the last occur
ring on January %. six days before
the outbreak of hostilities. No sub
stantial results were obtained; the Fill
ipino commissioners being either I'M
able or unwilling TO give any definite
statements Of the intent, purposes and
aims of their people, at the close Of
the last session they were given full
assurances that no hostile act would
be inaugurated by the United States
troops.
The critical moment had now arriv-
ed. Aguinaldo secretly ordered the
Fflipinos who were friendly to him to
seek refuge outside the city. The Ne
braska regiment at that time was in
camp IN the east line at Santa Mesa,
and was guarding its front. For days
before the memorable 4th of February,
1899, the outpOsts in front Of the regi-
ment had been openly menaced and as
s0Ulted by insurgent soldiers; they
'""n attempting to push our outposts
beck and advance their line. They
made light of our sentinels and per-
sistently ignored their orders.
ION the evening OF the 4th Of Febru-
airy an insurgent officer came to the
front with a detail of men and attempt
ed to pass the guard on the San Juan
bridge, our guard being stationed at
the west end Of the bridge. The Ne
braska seOtinel drove them back with
out firing, but a few minutes before 8
o'clock that evening a large body of in
surgent troops made an advance on the
South Dakota outposts, which fell back
rather than fire. About the same time
the insurgents came in force TO the
east end Of the San Juan bridge, in
front of the Nebraska regiment. For
several nights prior thereto a lieuten-
ant in the insurgent army had been
coming regularly to our outpost No. 2
of the Nebraska regiment, and at
tempting to force the outpost back
and insisting on posting his guard
within the Nebraska lines: and at this
tive and in the darkness he again ap-
pCared with a detail Of about six men
end approached Private Grayson OF
Company D, First Nebraska volunteers,
the sentinel on duty at outpost No. 2.
He, after hating them three times
without effect, fired, killing the lieuten-
ant, whose men returned the fire and
then retreated. Immediately rockets
were sent up by the Flipinos, and
they commenced firing all along the
line

IN QUEST OF THE NORTH POLE.
wealthy Citizen of New York VIII
FL Ont nm expedition.

New York, Oct. 14.-William Seigler,
a we'll known and wealthy citizen of
New York city, announced yesterday
that he would purchase two vessels,
fully equip and man them and send
them in quest of the North Pole dur
ing the summer of 1901. The expe-
dition is to be in charge of Evelyn
b. Baldwin, who was a companion OF
Lieut.. Peary in his attempts to
reach the pole in 1898 and 1894, and
also a member of Walter Wellman's
expedition. It is Mr.. Seigler's inten-
ton to have one vessel remain in the
Arctic regions while the other re-
turns for supplies. The expedition, 1t
is said, will not be dispatched for the
north earlier than h summer of 1891,
and ell the time between this late
and that will be necessary for the
preparation and outfit. Ships may be
purchased, though vessels much
adapted for the work may be built.

The Linsly Institute football team
got ! another severe drubbing. this
time from the city High School
Yesterday afternoon, at the Island
ball park. The game was harder
than the large score would make
it appear, owing to the OCCASION
al long runs of the High School backs.
On only one occasion did the Linsiy
make their distance when in posses
sion of the ball. 1t was in the second
half, when Heaton skirted the left end
for twenty yards. Linsly wasted
their strength fully in trying to force
a way through the line. The heavy
High School backs ploughed through
the assaulting cadets like railway
snow plows through drift, and even
after being tackled would be carried
on several yards farther. After the
first touchdown, it was only ques-
ton of how big the score would run.
The time of the halves were Is and 20
minutes.
Caldwell kicked off for Linsly. High
School, by the excellent work of the
backs, aided by good interference,
rushed the ball to the Linsly 2O-yard
line. Here Linsly made stand and
held for downs Heaton started
around left end, but was dropped. He
lost the ball in the scrimmage, and
Conrad, picking it up, scored the first
touchdown. after eight minutes Of
play. Conrad kicked an easy goal
Score: High School, 6; Linsly, 0.
Caldwell kicked to Hoge on the rs
yard line, who brought it out within
ten yards of the centre of the field
before being downed High School
by a series of rushes, took the ball
to Linslys 10-yard line without a
break Linsly again held for downs,
and recovered the ball. Two mass
plays netted three yards. They tried a
mass on right tackle, but before the
play was started, number Of High
School players BROKE through and, lift
ing Williams, who had the ball, carried
him over the line for Safety. Score:
High School, s; Linsly, 0.
Caldwell kicked off from the 25-yard
lined up when the timers whistle an
nounced the end Of the first half.
In the second half Hesse kicked to
Fisher, who fumbled, and Shirk recov-
cred the ball for the High School. High
School then rushed the ball to Linsly's
10-yard line, from which point Hoge
went over the line for the second
touchdown of the game, three minutes
after the referees whistle started the
second half. Conrad kicked the goal.
Score: nigh School, IA; Linsly, 0.
Caldwell kicked to Hesse, who
brought the ball out to mid-field.
Linsly Traced considerably, but the
superior weight and dash of their
opponents told. 1t was not until after
fifteen minutes of hard play that Cowl
went over for the third touchdown, and
last score of the game. Conrad missed
the goal. Score: High School, 10;
Linsly, 0.
With but two minutes to play,
Caldwell kicked to Shirk, who was
downed on High Schools 40-yard line.
Linsly held for downs, and secured pos
session of the ball. On the third down
time was called with the ball in Lins-
ly's possession on High Schools 35-
yard line.
For the High School, all the men
played good ball, the backs and ends
uoing especially brilliant work For
Linsly, Heaton and Sofneborn played
very good on defensive. The attend
ance was good.
