Masbate island has been impoverished
by the rinderpest, which has killed the
cattle. the raising of which is almost
the industry of the Inhabitants. The
people welcome the idea of civil gov
ernment and promise to extend their
timber and agricultural operations.
For reasons of economy the commits
sion has decided upon no salaries for
the provincial officials. Senor Serrano,
a native. has been appointed governor
of the province; George Laners. New
York soldier. supervisor, and Lieut..

Worcester and Senior de Tavera ad-
dressed the federafists in the theater to-

C0NvlCTS WERE GLAD TO GET
ABOVE GROUND.
TRIED 10 FIGHT THE GUARDS
BUT SOON TIRED OF REBELLION
WILL BE PUNISHED FOR
MUTINY.

Leavenworth, Kan, March 2G.-At =
O'clock this morning the last of the 2S4
mutinous convict miners was taken
from the penitentiary pit at Lansing
and placed behind prison bars. 1t was
learned today that two of the convicts
had been shot and wounded slightly by
the first cage full of guards that des-
cended into the pit last night to rescue
the fifteen guards held as hostages.
When the cage reached the bottom Of
the pit a number of the convicts at
tempted to make a stand, and 4 volley
from the rescuers was fired above their
heads to frighten them. One man was
shot in the arm and another received
d bullet in the leg. This cowed the 9th
ers and they surrendered without fur
her trouble. The guards were first
sent to the top, the convicts following
as quickly as they could be rounded
up. Many Of the convicts had hidden in
he different tunnels, and it was after
midnight before all We're recovered.
The convicts had gone for "a hours
without food and We're glad to reach
the top. They We're given a cup Of
coffee and a few slices of bread. This
served as a beginning of their punish
:1ent. Today Warden Tomlinson says
he will punish the ringleaders severely,
and all will be kept in confinemnt for
awhile. The two men shot by the guards
We're not badly hurt. None of the Is
guards held underground are any the
worse for their experience.
The wounded men are Ralph Clark,
under 20-year sentence for highway
robbery. who will have to suffer the
amputation of an arm, and Alfred Hat
field, serving ten years for manslaugh-
ter. Hatfield received a flesh wound in
the leg.

London March 20.-The Westminster
Gazette this morning MAKES pesslmlstlc
comment on Gen. Bothas refusal to ac"
cept the peace terms offered by LORD

cover their own.
The failure of these peace neSotia-

BILE for winter az they were last season,
