OXFORD THE WINNERS
OF the University Boat Race In a Close
and Exciting Contest.

London, March 3o.-Oxford won the
university boat race today, finishing
two fifths of a length ahead of Cam
bridge; time % minutes 81 seconds.
The closeness of the finish is evidence
of the doggedness of the contest. Cam
bridge won the toss and chose the Sur
rey side. A half gale was blowing from
the southwest at the time for the start
and the water was so rough that the
choice Of positions was considered a
great advantage and but for the gener-
alship of Culme-Seymour, Oxford
stroke, it might easily have given the
race to the light blue.
AS is was, the spectators were treat
ed to rare race, the rivals leading al
ternately until they reached Thorney-
croft's, where it looked as If the odds
were on Cambridge. Shortly after
wards. Culme-Seymour called upon his
men and desperate race ensued along
the banks by the meadows.
Cambridge replied splendidly to the
Oxonian challenge and shot by Barns
brigade looking like winners. 1t was,
however, an expiring effort, and OK
ford, keeping an even pace, were down
upon the opposing crew and won.
Both crews were greatly distressed at
the finish.

pointments Under the New Army

ing important army appointments were
announced at the White house tonight:

departments, and of chaplains was
made known. All of these appointees
are in the regular army, under the re-
cent act of congress enlarging and
reorganizing the army. and without
exception the staff appointees are from
volunteer officers.
The chief interest, however, centered
in the three high appointments of a
major general and two brigadiers, and
more particularly in the selection of
General Funston after his gallant ex-
ploit in capturing Aguinaldo.
Following the announcement Gener-
al Corbin sent the following to General
Macarthur:
washington, March 80.
Macarthur, Manila.
THE following appointments made:

THE OUTLOOK HOPEFUL
By Reason of the Capture of Aguin-
aldo Conceded by all Men in
the Philippines.

be judged from the following excerpts:
The war in South Africa will cost
not far short of goo, ,Oo0, 900 and the
settlement seems as far Off as ever.
There are problems TO be solved in the
far east Of the first magnitude and the
government appears destitute of a
clear, settled policy. Already the huge
expenditure for the army and navy is
going up by leaps and bounds, and will
force Europe to add to its ruinously
large armaments. Where is 1T TO end?"
The Irish question is more to the
front than ever and the government
seems to view it with apathetic impo-
tence.'
THE advocates of the liberals are
not endeavoring to take up the govern
ment's burden until they have exacted
conditions that their policy will not
again be stultified by the rejection of
their measures by the house Of Lords"
Whether the conditions should be ex-
acted from the king or whether the
liberals must frankly appeal TO the
country for the practical abolition of
the house of lords is not quite clear;
but anyway, as The Daily News says:
1t is a bold and somewhat startling
suggestion, in which Mr.. Gladstone
seems to have put his finger on the
weak spot of modern liberalism

LORD SALISBURY TO RETIRE
HIS HEALTH SUCH AS TO FORCE
RESIGNATION OF OFFICE.
The Premier Said TO be Suffering from
Acute Brfght's Disease His Trip to
the Riviera Abandoned on Account
OF His Condition-Most Eminent Ply
sicians Consuited-Stringe Meas
ures Adopted, but the Medical Men
Disappointed at the Result.

London, March 30.-The Weekly Dis
patch repeats the story published in
The Daily Express of Saturday that
Lord Salisbury is suffering from a kid
ney affection which is likely to inca
pacitate him for some time and says
it learns that the premiers illness has
taken so unfavorable turn that his
proposed visit to the Riviera has be-
come almost hopeless and that the an
nouncement Of his resignation of the
premiership and his retirement from
political life may be anticipated before
the end Of April. The dispatch adds:
THE doctors have pronounced Lord
Salisbury to be suffering from Bright's
disease in SO aggravated a form that a
grave view is being taken of the case.
Lord Salisbury is so anxious to pre-
vent the nature of his illness from be-
ing made public that none of the emf
nent specialists called in are allowed
to sign a bulletin. No bulletin sane
toned by the doctors has been issued.
The premier's condition suddenly be-
came so grave a week ago that Sir
Richard Douglass Powell, DR.. Walker
and other physicians were hastily sum-
moned. In order to avert crisis a spe-
cial prescription was made up, the ap-
plication of which checked the ap-
preaching complications, but the prem
iers condition for the last day or two
has disappointed all the medical men,
One of the earliest callers on Saturday
was a special messenger from the king
THE family last evening expressed
a hope that Lord Salisbury might make
the journey to the Riviera, but the
physicians are 10th to express an opin-
ion except in so far as forbidding any
definite arrangements to be made for
the present.

Washington, March 30-The war de-
partment today made public portion
of the cablegram sent yesterday to
General Macarthur, conveying the ap-
probation of the president and secre-
tary of war of General Funston's cap
ture of Aguinaldo. 1t is as follows
Washington, March 90.
Macarthur, Manila.
1.-The president directs me to express
his high appreciation Of the gallant
conduct of General Funston and Of the
officers and men of the army and navy
engaged with him in the Palanan ex-
pedition. The secretary of war per-
sonally joins in this expression
"CORBIN."
The telegram sent to General Mac
Arthur today. expressing the apprecia-
ton of the president and secretary of
war over the successful expedition of
General Funston. also contains in
structicns to General Macarthur. The
nature of these instructions are not
made public, but it is known that they
the government regarding the insur-
gent prisoner is at present the same as
toward other Filipino prisoners, wheth-
er they have voluntarily surrendered to
the American troops or been captured
in battle.
Arthur, the instructions of the presi-
dent to the Taft commission and the
people Of the Philippines cover the case
of Aguinaldo. Under these various
communications the people Of the Phil
ippines who have been in arms against
the United States government have
been offered amesty if they lay down
their arms and accept the sovereignty
of the United States. Those who do SO
before May 1st of the present year are
not debarred from holding office Or
from all other rights under the United
States government in the Philippines.
This amnesty does not apply to those
who have violated the rules of war and
subjected themselves to trial on GRIM
inal charges for acts which are outside
of the conduct of war.
Aguinaldo has not placed himself in
| position to be offered any terms by
the United States under any of the
proclamations or instructions govern
ing the Philippines. No attempt will
| be made to bargain with him and he
will first have to accept the sovereign
J ty of the United States and also show
| that he comes within the terms of the
amnesty offered before he could even
be offered a position under the govern
| ment. if it seemed desirable to use him
| in governmental capacity in the fu-
ture. At present, Aguinaldo will be
considered on the same footing with
| other prisoners.
His future disposition cannot be de-
| termined at present. Save for his cap
| ture he stands in the same attitude to-
ward the United States that he has
stood from the beginning Of the insur-
| rection
The subject of rewarding General
| Funston was not taken up today and
the impression now seems general that
nothing will be done for Ssome time.
| General Funston will continue to serve
| as a brigadier general of volunteers.
