MANILA, March Generals Young
and Hood are asking for reinforce
ments and battalion of the Forty
eighth regiment has been sent 10
Aparri. Other troops will follow. The
rebels recently persistently attacked
APART for several hours, but were
finally driven away. Details of the
affair are lacking.
The rebels are holding reunions in
the province of North Iloilos, and the
red cross, symbolic of resistance, is
again appearing among the natives.
It Is believed that the insurgent
generals, Tinio and Flores, have been
driven by General Young into Gen
eral Hoods territory, south OF APART.
The fact that General Young is IN
able, owing to a lack of troops, to
maintain garrisons in all the towns
occupied, has had bad effect on the
natives.
General Bates has returned here, af-
ter leaving garrisons in the provinces
of North and South Camarinas. The
expedition lost seven killed and ten
wounded. On entering New Caceres,
province of South Camarines, General
Bates learned that 1000 insurgents had
departed the same day. The Amer
leans Immediately sent out three pur-
suing columns, engaging the enemy in
three small engagements and killing
a total of forty men.
The Spanish prisoners report that
the enemy has divided into small
bands in the mountains, under the
leadership of General Legaspi. The
town of Iriga has been burned by the
enemy. The provinces were thor
oughly secuted. The inhabitants of
the district of Lithuanian, including
Abella, the provincial governor, and
other officials, are returning to their
homes. Abella has issued procla-

PITTSBURG, Pa, March 9.-Secre-
tary Moreland, of the Carnegie Steel

Carnegie litigation had ever

ject of the recent conferences of those

task of getting all the papers ready for

part of the Carnegie Company that its
answer in the FFick suit would be en-
tered tomorrow, but this can hardly
be done, and it will probably be Mon
day before the paper reaches the pro-
thonotary's office. 1t was said by the

defendants who will make separate re-
turns, will be filed at about the same

LONDON, March 0, BIO p. m.-Late
this afternoon 1T is learned that the
peace rumors were founded on the
fact that President Kruger has np-
peaIcd to Lord Salisbury for ces-
sation of hostilities, Offering at
length, by cable, the terms which he
is willing to accept. These, how
ever, are not taken seriously, as
they include practically nothing
more than what the Transval gov
eminent offered prior to the issuing
of the British uItimatum.
Official circles here regard the
propositions as merely a ruse of the
Beers to gain time and do not con-
slider that President Kruger is yet
ready to consider the sweeping de-
mands which Great Britain Will
make as reimbursement for the loss
of life and great expenditure.
1t was understood that President
Kruger's advances had met with m
emphatic rejection ut the hands of
Lord Salisbury, who is believed to
have said that no such attempt to
retain the independence of the
Transvaal can be considered for n
moment by the British government.

MORGANTOWlN, w. Va, March 81

LONDON, March 9.-5:42 p. m.-The
Ameer of Afghanistan has authorized
his agent in London to publish the
following statement OF the policy of
Afghanistan towards Great Britain and
Russia. After saying that he has de-
voted much anxious thought to the
possibility of Russia taking advan-
tage of the Transvaal war to advance
through Afghanistan and India, His
Highness adds:
81 have come to the conclusion that
Russia feared Afghanistan, as a war
with the Afghans would mean gen
eral rising Of all Islams, which would
spread through Russia-Asia. Russia
had not troops enough to combat
such rising. Her hold on the Mus
sulman countries she has conqured is
insecure They hate her, and with
ten times her power Russia could not
fight Afghanistan and India success
fully.
'The Afghans prefer death to slav-
cry, and their women and children are
being taken by the Russians"
After saying he is willing to send
numerous troops to help Great Brit
ain in the Transvaal. but adding that
the Afghans were unaccustomed to the
sea, the Ameer adds:
"But England's troubles are always
my troubles, her strength is my
strength and her weakness is my
weakness. England must remember
that I am always ready to fight for
her on land, here or in India"

Beers LACK GUIDING SPIRIT.

The Free State Said to Favor Sub
mfssion-President Kruger Calls
For Volunteers to Go to the Front
With Him.
LONDON, March 9.-From various
quarters come signs of the possibility
OF peace in South Africa being short
~ within the bounds of practical poll
tics. All the dispatches from Lord
Roberts headquarters, including those
of the commander-in-chief himself, in
dictate the lack of guiding spirit
among the Beers, and individual DEM
onstration, portending disintegration,
unless speedily stemmed.
The fight of the burgers from Pop
lar Grove, according to all accounts,
was wholly inglorious. A Times dis
patch from Poplar Grove, under yes
terday's date, goes so far as to assert
that the rout of the Beers was so COM
pIete that the submission of the Free
State is being demanded by the burg
ers from their unwilling president, and
1t is expected that its submission will
be made within a week. The CORES
pondent adds: Probably the Beers
wisest course was fight, but it was
most undignified and is certain to pro-
duce CONSERVATION at Bloemfontein.
There is a growing cutlery against any
further identification of the Free State
with the Transvaal's interests"
Dispatches from the Boer camp, at
Glencoe depict President Kruger as
donning bandolir, Selling a rifle and
inviting volunteers to accompany him,
as he wished to have shot at the
enemy himself. President Kruger is
also quoted as having declared in his
address to the troops that he did
not know whether arbitration or in
tervention would end the struggle, but
that it would end quickly, within the
next month. he strongly believed"
In the meanwhile the British are
not staying their advance. Lord
Roberts has moved ten miles nearer
Bloemfontein, evidently with the view
of Selling and utilizing the railroad,
possibly to reach the Free State cap
ltal in three or four days, whence he
may begin repairing the railroad
southwark, meeting the British ad-
vance from Cape Colony, which may
be expected to be FASTENED as soon as
General White takes control. The
British occupied jamestown unop-
posed Thursday, March s, and the
