SIXTEEN BOLOMEN KILLED

Manila November 17.-Company F of the Ninth infantry. Captain F. H. shoef- fel. was attacked by fifty bolomen and several insurgents armed with rifles at a point six miles from Taragnan in the Island of Samar. The insurgents tried to rush the Americans. but falling to ac- complish their purpose. they quickly broke and scattered. The men of the Ninth had a corporal and a scout killed while the rifiemen escaped.
 Ten Hotchkiss rapid-fire guns will be sent to the southern islands for opera ton in the mountains. Captain Herman Hall, of the Twenty-first infantry, has been scouting for several days In Batan- gas province. He had four separate en- agreements with the insurgents there. Judging from the firing on these occa- sions, Captain Hall estimates the force of each band of the rebels at from thir- ty to fifty. They made no attempt to charge Captain Halls party. Captain Halls scout resulted in the capture of one insurgent officer and 5O.OGO pounds of rice General Sumner. commander of the district of Southern Luzon. highly praises Captain Hartman and his troops of the First Cavalry. who last wednes- day morning attacked 40 insurgents en- uenched in rife pits at Buan. Bstangas province. and routed them
 General Sumner says the blow admins tered by Captain Hartman Is the most severe the insurgents have suffered since he. General Sumner. assumed command of this district Owing to the fact that the United States Transports Sheridan. Waldron and Hancock all met with acci- dents in the inland seas of Japan and the returning party of visiting congress men Is consequently now delayed in the latter country, the transport Thomas, which arrived at Manila November T.. will be immediately dispatched to Japan. General Chaffee opposes United States transports in future passing through the inland seas.

The President will also be reminded of the condition of the British concentration camps in South Africa and to the precedent established by President Mckinley in regard to the recent reconcentrado camps in Cuba

Way Down East.


 Way Down East" a play by Lottie Blair Parker. elaborated by Joseph R. Grismer, is to be produced at the Jeffer- son Theatre for two night and matinee. beginning tonight.
 Way Down East for seven months crowded the Manhatten Theatre. New York, Tt every performance and was af- rewards transferred to the New York Academy of Music (the largest seating capacity of any theatre in America) where 1t was given for 427 consecutive time, and it's success in the Metropolis has been repeated in every large city where it has been seen. It has been en- dorsed by all classes of people, seems to possess a special fascination for women. and is in receipt of enthusiastic praise from clergymen, school teachers and in fact many people who are not theatre goers as rule. It is a play of rural New England, bringing to the fore in a quaint manner the new types of character which exist only in the districts where these scenes are depicted. It Is said to be a combination of the domestic and the dramatic, a plain story of plain people. The theme, full of human interest, and the personages drawn with no little skill. Many have likened it to Shore Acres" and "The Old Homestead'' and declared 1t superior to either. The moral II teaches is not hung up like a sign board. but is left for the auditor to deduce with a desire that he enjoy the methods which lead to conclusions, customs and speech are reproduced without exaggeration. characters are individualized, and so far as appearances, manner and dress are concerned it is said they might be trans ferred to any little village of the region where the scene Is laid without exciting remark. The scenery is complete, present. ing a series of pictures. and It is claimed. there are many rural and realistic touches which show familiarity with country life. There Is a snow storm in the third act, an invention of MT. Jos. Grismer's, said to be the most realistic ever presented on any stage.

Big Coal Deal.

Pittsburgh, Pa, May 6.-Probably
the largest coal deal ever success
fully carried through has just been
completed by James w. Drape & Co.,
and involves almost all of the Muir
raysville vein of coal, located in Al
legheny and Westmoreland counties.
The total acreage of coal privilege
sold approxmates $4,000 acres, and
the price was very close to $4,oo0,oOo.
The company which has acquired this
vast coal deposit is made up of Pitts
burgh capitalists almost entirely, and
will be known as the Black Run coal
syndicate. Some 500 pieces of prop
erty are included in the purchase.

London, May 6.-The pope, accord

pope by a conclaye. The news of the
.pope's will first took shape in dip1o-
matte note from the Bavarian min

simple-the papal power being abso-
lutte involves the right Of naming a
successor.

Missionary Owen, of the London mis-

show the country to be in deplorable
state. Discomfort and intense hatred
of foreigners prevail and worse condi-

threatened. The departure Of the

by a massacre of the native Chris
