rHH PHILIPPINE Army.
Ne Material Change Win Ne Made
Until the War Department Hears
rrom Gen. Chance.

Washington, April 2O.--Adjt. Gen.
Corbin authorizes the statement that
no material changes will be made in
the army in the Philippines until
after the department has heard from
Gen. Chaffee on the subject. Chaffee
will relieve Gen. Macarthur of the
command Of the military forces in the
Philippines on June 80, and the pres
ent expectation is that a civil gov
ernment will be established in the
archipelago about that time.
Gen. Corbin says that recent devel-
opments in the Philippines have caus-
ed no change in the general plans of
the department for the dispatch of
regular troops from the United States
to replace the volunteers ordered
home for discharge before July /
next. Gen. Corbin gives an emphatic
denial to the published reports that
Gen. Macarthur has been instructed
to reduce the army Immediately to
10000 men.
With a view to relieving all the reg
ular troops who have had long pc
riod of service in the Philippines the
secretary of war has decided to re-
place them as rapidly as circum-
stances will permit with the new reg
iments now in course of organization.

A FRIENDLY ALLIANCE.
ana Illinois VIII Attempt to
Eradicate Fake Insurn nee.

indianapolis, Ind, April 20.-Ohio.
Indiana and Illinois. through their
attorney generals, have formed a
friendly alliance to eradicate fake in
surance companies. Attorney General
Sheets, of Ohio, called on Attorney
General Taylor, of Indiana. at the
state house Friday and the two talked
over schemes to rid the people of
these blood sucking enterprises.
The cooperation of the three
states, it is believed. will more eff
fectually quash the evil. as under the
lack of combined supervision CON-
panies driven out of one state imme-
dately took root in an adjoining
state and kept in business with com
paratively little trouble. The three
men will keep each other posted as
to details of all discoveries in their
respective states.

REMARKABLE OPERATION.
Three stitches Taken in the Heart
Of Philip Gum. St. Louis. and
He May Recover.

st. Louis, April 22.-Dr. H. L. ME-
tert, superintendent of the city hos
pital, has just performed one of the
most remarkable operations ever re-
corded in the annals of surgery. It
consisted of taking three stitches in
the heart of Philip Gum, who had
been stabbed in saloon brawl. The
point of the knife blade had entered
the right ventricle and had pierced
to the cavity of the heart. Luckily
the knife had entered the heart OBJ
liquely, and the result was that the
opening between the cavity and the
percardium of the heart was lip
shaped on both sides. The wound act
ed as a valve, and at each pulsation
of the blood through the heart but a
small quantity escaped through the
artificial opening. The task of stitch
ing this unusual wound was very
moved section of the breast bone
exposing the pericardium. The mo-
ton of the heart can not be repress-
ed and DR.. Nietart was forced to make
the stitches while the organ was shift
ing about. 1t required three sutures
to effectually close the gap. This del
icate operation finished, the pericar-
dunn was sewed together. The por-
tion of the breast bone removed
could not be replaced, and the opera
tion was concluded by stitching to-
gether the skin and the outer tissues
which cover the chest.
Gum 10 still alive, and as he has
strong constitution, the physicians
predict his recovery.

Trust In the Glorisus Banner
Of the Uuited States Let
Cs Have Peace.

Manila, April 2O.---The following is
Aguinaldo's address to the Filipino
people made public:
Il believe | am not in error in pre-
sun,ing that the unhappy fate to
which my adverse fortune has led
me. is not surprise to those who
have been familiar with the progress
of the war. The lessons taught with
full meaning. and which have re-
Gently come to my knowledge, sng-
gest with irresistible force that II
and lasting peace are not only de-
sirable. but absolutely essential to
the welfare of the Philippine islands.
'''rhc Filipinos have never been dis
mayed at their weakness. nor have
they faltered in following the path
pointed out by their fortitude and
courage. The time has come, how
ever. in which they find their ad-
vance along this path to be impeded
by an irresistible force. which, while
il restraints them. yet enlightens
their minds and opens to them an
other course, presenting them the
cause of peace.
This cause has been joyfully en-
braced by the ma aiority of my fellow
countrvmen, who have already united
around the glorious sovereign banner
of the United States. In this banner
they repose their trust and belief
that under it's protection the Filipino
people will attain all those promised
liberties which they are beginning
to enjoy. The country has declared
Enthusiastically in favor of peace. So
be it. There has been enough blood,
enough tears and enough desolation.
This wish can not be ignored by the
men still in arms if they are animat-
ed by desire to serve our noble peo-
pie which has thus clearly manifest
ed its will So do l respect this will,
now that it is known to me.
after mature deliberation I reso-
lutely proclaim to the world that i
can not refuse to heed the voice of
n people longing for peace, nor the
of thousands of fam
lilies yearning to see their dear ones
enjoying the liberty and the prom
ised generosity of the great American
nation.
"By acknowledging and accepting
the sovereignty of the United States
throughout the Philippine archipel-
ago, as i now do and without any
whatsoever, believe that
am serving thee, my beloved coun-
try. May happiness be thine"
To signalize this important step
in the pacification of the country,
Gen. Macarthur orders the release,
on swearing allegiance to the United
States. of 1000 insurgent prisoners.

Pao Ting Flu, Saturday April 2O.--
This city has been for the last four
days big military camp of French
and German soldiers on the way to
the front. 1t is now estimated that
5000 French troops and 5000 Ger
mans will form the entire force when
all the reinforcements have arrived.
There is no truth in current reports
regarding severe fighting between the
outposts and the Chinese.
Three men left yesterday under es-
cort to convey Emperor Kwang Su's
first order to Gen. Liu to retire inn
mediately into the province of Shan
81. Prince Ching and other Chinese
officials say the Chinese general has
already retired: but their confirmn-
tions or denials are considered very
unreliable.
The French and German troops
seem to he cooperating fairly well.
although until Friday there was some
doubt as to who would command the
expedition. This question has been
settled by an arrangement until
which the French and Germans are
to work independently and yet at
the same time to cooperate.
If the Chinese retire over the Shan
ST boundary, then, according to in
tcrnational agreement, the foreign
troops should not go beyond it. The
ministers of the powers in Pclting
earnestly hope that this may he the
case. They point out that the. Chi

FIERCE STORM AT CLEVELAND
Immense Damage To Telephone and
TELEGRAPH Wires--street aad
steam Railways Crippled.

Cleveland, O., April 22.--The fierce
storm of wind and snow that swept
over this city and northern Ohio
throughout Saturday and Saturday
night gradually subsidized Sunday. 1t
was followed Sunday night by . fog
30 dense that II was almost impos-
sible to see from one side Of a street
to the other.
Notwithstanding the heroic efforts
of the telegraph and telephone com
panies 10 repair their prostrated
lines there has, thus far, been little
improvement in the service. Not q
single wire was working on any d.
rect route between this oity and
Buffalo or Pittsburgh Sunday.
Throughout the day big gangs Of
men have been At work on the various
lines resetting poles and strinying
wires. Every available man has been
pressed into service by the several
companies, and while the repair work
is progressing rapidly, 1t will be sew
eral days before direct communica-
tion with points east of Cleveland is
fully re-established.
Trains on practically all roads en-
tering the city continue to arrive
from one to three hours behind
schedule time. This is especially true
in regard to the lines from the east
The fact that there are no wires to
facilitate the movement of trains is
responsible to large extent for the
delay to the traffic.
Traffic on the city street car lines
continued to be badly crippled all
day, as a result of the deep snow
and slush on the tracks. So heavy is
the snow and slush in many places
that the most powerful sweepers be-
come stalled in it.
A large section of the city is still
cut off from communication by wire
with fire headquarters. Scores of fire
alarm boxes are out of service and
seven fre department stations are
without telegraph or telephone COM
munication as a result of tho general
prostration of the wires.
