young general can have the best posi-
ton in his power to give him.

papers were captured.
STAFF TAKEN WITH HIM.
London, March 2s.-A dispatch from
Manila says that several members OF

him and brought to Manila. The insur-

WHERE CAPTURE WAS MADE.
The province OF Isabella. where the
capture Of AeuinaldO occurred is on the
island of Luzon. about 200 miles north
east Of Manila and about IS miles north
Of Baler, on the eastern coast which
place was made memorable by the cap
ture OF Lieut. Gilmore and his party
from the gunboat Yorktown in April.
1899 Isabella province is wild and
mountainous. especially along the coast.
where the high range known as the
Grand Cordellinas Oriente extends for
: hundred miles or more from north to
south, the highest points Of the range
being but a few miles from the shore
Rugged trails. in some places being but
a foot or two in width. led across the
mountains frequently crossed by rush
ing streams and where these overflow
the banks the trails are waist deep in
mud. 1t was to this uninviting district
that General Funston and his small
band went a short time ago. Tt was
part or the island that had never before
been visited by American troops.
FUNSTON'S REWARD
Washington. March 2S.-Several inter-
esting and indeed vital questions are
raised by Aguinaldo's capture. If the
insurrection now collapses. as it is hoped
il will, it may not be necessary to en-
list the full strength Of the army pro-
vided for in the army reorganization
bill There also is the question of the
disposition to be made of the insurgent
chief. But it is too early yet for the
authorities to decide these questions
There also is much speculation as to the
reward which General Funston may re-
ceive for his work. 1T is considered not |
improbable that his reward viii be a

STANLEY is GLAD.
Kansas Governor Is Proud of Gen.
Funston's Success

Guthrie, O. T. March Ex-Governor w.
E. Stanley, of Kansas, who was the guest
of honor at a banquet here last night
was awakened this morning at 1870 in
his rooms at the Royal hotel and told
that General Funston had captured
AguinaldO. He said:
4 am very glad, I am sure, to hear
the news. 1 am more than glad TO know
that a Kansan was the instrument in
securing this man. 1t was a great deed.
Kansas has had many unxind remarks
made at her expense recently and hope
those who have made them will now
count of Funston's exploit.
Kansas has reason to be proud of the
achievements of her SON."
What effect will this have on the
Philippine trouble?"
4 think it viii cause the disturbances
in those districts to cease. With the
leader captured it will be disheartening
to Aguinaldo's followers.
I am very sure that all of the people
Of Kansas will be as glad as I am to
hear that General Funston has captured

Importance of His Work Discussed in
Official Circles.

Washington, March 2S.-In cabinet cir
cles Gen. Funsron's exploit was referred
TO IN laudatory terms and the probable
effect it viii have on the termination Of
hostilities in the Philippines is being gen
orally discussed Secretary Long ex-
pressed the prevailing sentiment. He
naturally was much gratified ait the o.
ficlal confirmation Of Aguinaldo's cap
tura and Of the assistance that the may
had been able to render Gen. Funston ii
facilitating his exploits. The capture It
sell was OF much Importance. he said,
but he suggested that the moral effecr
probably would count quite as much az
the brilliancy Of the exploit. He cons.d
erei III one Of the most significant fed-
lures of the affair that the natives them
selves had been Instrumental in bringing

corsf fderahle part Of Funston's force and
Their willingness to go into the heart of
AgEinaldO's stronghold indicated that in
theii cwn minds they fslt that there was
no longer any real danger to be apple
heEoeG from Aguinaldo's strength That
such a sentiment had obtained hold
among the Filipinos, was in the judk-
ment Of Secretary Long a significant ey-
idelce that the insurrection had lost its
vitality among the people themselves
To this sentiment was now added the
loss of the ostensible head Of the insLlr-
rectsonary movement, which would
doubtless exert far reaching influence
up0r the native mind. The secretary said
he presumed that ARuinaldo would lie
held as prisoner Of war.

the secretary. and then after a pause ne
added smilingly: i should say that he

as a prisoner Of war who has rebelled
against the authority OF the United
States, it might be incumbent under mill
itary procedure TO deal with Aguinaldo
by those rigorous steps usual to warfare.
But Mr. Long shook his head and re-
marked that that was hardly the way
we were in the habit Of doing things. He
was more inclined to his first view. that

PRINCE HENRY.

Amsterdam, Dec. 5.-In spite of
official denials, Investigations show
there is substantial foundation for the
story of a duel having been fought
between Prince Henry of Netherlands,
husband of Queen Wilhelmina, and
Major Won Tets, the Queens aidede-
camp. 1t appears that at dinner at
Het Loo her Majesty was hurt by
some inattention on the part Of the
Prince, and spoke to him sharply.
Prince Henry retorted extensively,
whereupon Maj. Won Tets made a re-
mark regarding the improperly of
the Princes conduct. A quarrel fol-
lowed between the aide-de- camp and
the Prince who had been drinking
freely, and duel with swords was
fought after dinner. Van Tets was
wounded. He has since been remov-
ed to Utrecht to be operated upon.
London, Dec 5.-The matrimonial
quarrel between Queen Wilhelmina
and Prince Henry, her husband, ex-
cites great interest here. The history
of the affair, as gathered from the
various continental newspapers, charg-
es Prince Henry with misconduct and
neglect, and repeats rumors of his
deep drinking and heavy gambling
debts, which Queen Wilhelmina de-
clined to pay. Another point of dis
agreement between the pair was the
Princes unconcealed antipathy to
Holland, and his ungovernable passion
for hunting, which resulted in his
long absences in Germany 1t is said
that the queen mother then interfered
and taxed her son-in-l law with misbe
havior, but without effect, and finally
the matter developed into an estrange-
ment between mother and daughter.
In regard to the quarrel at the d in
ner at Het Loo, and the resulta
duels, another rumor represents Major
Won Tets as having received vio-
lent kick in the stomach which caus-
ed him severe internal injuries, and it
is supposed the fear that his death
might lead to revelations is the real
reason for something of the truth be-
ing allowed to leak out after the mat
ter was officially denied. The latest
news, however, says that Major Van
Tets is progressing favorably, and it is
said the tqueen mother has been able
to affect something like a reconcilia-
tion between the Queen and her hus-
band.

johannesburg, Dec. 4.-The cap

One of these was dash across the

that Gen. DeWet, with a small party,
was at a farm house near Kronstadt,
Remington galloped there and took
six prisoners. Gen. DeWet escaped.
