Manila, July 27.-Gen. Hughes ca
bles the news of the first surrender
Of insurgents in the island of Samar,
500 men, with two field guns, 80 rifles
and 20 bolos, giving themselves up to
the authorities.
3 The opinion prevails among the
United States officers that it will take
years to accomplish the economic pro-
gramme of Gen. Corbin. The civil
and education authorities hold that
continuance of the protection over
minor posts is necessary. aside from
that afforded by the constabulary. 1t
is generally expected that the con-
centration will be more gradual thar
is anticipated in Washington.
The first meeting of the legislative
chamber, held to-day, was largely at
tended. Commissioner Wright, speak
ing of the charter of Manila, said the
same reason that controlled in max
ing Washington the federal city OBJ
tanned in Manila; and Washington, he
declared, was the best governed city
in the world. Representatives of the
Spanish chamber of commerce vehe-
mently opposed the charter, assessing
that it was inconsistent with the prin
ciples of the freest government on
earth to deny the right of suffrage to
the residents of the metropolis while
granting it to those of other localities.
They also declared that the proposed
system of government for Manila was
far less liberal than that offered by
the Spanish authorities, who proposed
to make the representatives of the
district in Manila elective by the peo-

the sleepers were hurrying to their
assigned places, some with flushed
faces and expostulation. They
thought their cars should have come
to them.

some ladies he was assisting up the
steps. "We've twice as many cars as

but slowly. when in obedience to the
corporal's order his fellows began to
move. He was still looking, half in
search, half in expectation, towards
building. But the instant he became
aware of the movement in his direc-
ton on part of the passengers, he
pushed ahead past several of the
party; he even half showed aside one
of their number who had lust
grasped the hand rail of the car, then
sprang lightly past him and disap-
peared within the doorway. There,
half-hidden by the gloom of the in
terror. he stood we'll back from the
grimy windows, yet peering intently
through the swiftly passing crowd.

seated himself in the opposite section

TRIED TO BUNCO CLERGYMAN.
The "Panhandlers" Keep List of
Their Victims to Guide Their
Future Operations.

One morning a man came to me
with letter written on stamped pa
per and signed with the name of a
clergyman of my church in Massachu-
sets. writes Rev. David M. Steele of
"The Lovers of Cheerful Giver," in
Ladies' Home Journal. His story,
told in embarrassment, was that he
had run away from home. According
to the letter his aged mother was dy-
ing with grief, and the appeal of the
rector was for the man to come back
at once. The minister's check for
eight dollars, drawn on bank in this
same town, was inclosed with which to
pay car fare. He was distressed and
was anxious to go, but the difficulty
was he had been in New York only
five days, knew no one, and could not
be identified at the bank. Would
cash the check? 1 told him to come
back in couple of hours and mean
while I telegraphed inquiries to Rev.
c.. The answer came: do not
know any such man." When the fellow
returned he was arrested, and in his
pocket a neatly kept memorandum
book was found containing the name
of nearly every clergyman in Chicago,
Cincinnati, Cleveland, Pittsburgh and
Philadelphia. This had been his route.
On each page of his book there were
four columns headed: "Name, Date,
Amount and Remarks" and in these
were such entries as: Rev. R,
$500. Got after an hours work."
'Rev. s.. no good. Can't work.
"Rev. T, $500. An easy mark"
The dates ran back through three
years. When he had completed his
tour he would probably either have
sold his book to some one else to use.
or he would have changed his appear
ance. invented new story, and ap-
preached a second time the people
who were worth it.

"Why, what detachment is this,
corporal?'' he asked. 1--WE brought
no troops on our train"
Recruits the cavalry. sir" was
the ready answer. I'VE came by way
of Denver"
"Ah, yes; that explains it. Who's
in command?" And the tall officer
looked about him as though in search
of kindred rank.
"We have no officer with us. SIR

the brakeman at the moment. slump
on the diner, if you like, and go
through"
The officer took the hint and
sprang to the steps. There he turned
and faced the platform again just as
the train began to move.
A little group, two ladies and a
man of middle age, stood directly OPP
posite him, closely scanning the
train. and all of a sudden their faces
beamed, their glances were directed,
their hands waved towards him.
"Good-by! Good-by! Take good
care of yourself! Wire from Sacra-
mento!" were their cries. addressed
apparently to his head, and turning
quickly, he found himself confronting
young girl standing smilingly on
the platform of the dining car, her
tiny feet about on a level with his
knees; yet he had hardly cast an up
ward glance, for her beaming, beau
tiful face was but trifie higher than
his own. In all his life he had never
seen one so pretty.
Realizing that he stood between
this fair traveller and the friends
who were there to wish her god
speed; recognizing, too, with the
swift intuition of his class, the posi-
bility of establishing relations on his
own account. the young soldier
snatched off his new forage cap, brief
ly said: Il beg your pardon; take
my place." and, swinging outward,
transferred himself to the rear of
the recruit car, thereby causing the
corporal to. recoil upon a grinning
squad of embryo troopers who were
shouting jocular farewell to the ma
tives, and getting much in the way
of train hands who were busy
Strengthening out the bell cord.
Something seemed amiss with that
portion of it which made part of the
equipment of the old tourists car.
1t was either wedged in the narrow
orifice above the door or caught
among the rings of the pendants
from above, for it resisted every jerk,
whereat the brakeman set his teeth
and said improper things. 1t would
have grieved the management to
hear this faithful employees denunci-
alton of that particular item of their
rolling stock.
"Get out of the way here. boys. and
let's see what's the matter with this
dinged bell cord,'' he concluded, ell
bowling his way through the swarm
about the door. Once fairly within,
he threw quick glance along the
aisle. The left sections of the car
were deserted. Out of almost every
window on the right side poked
head and pair of blue flannel shout
ders.

had been twice asked. Then in

Corporal Connolly stood second

looking steadfastly at the young sol

springy steps that landed him close
to the unmoved recruit.

NO CHANGE OF POLICY INVOLVED.

The changes. so far as the minister to Venez-
uela is concerned. are said at the State Depart
ment to have no particular political significance.
Mr.. Loomis goes elsewhere than Caracas at his
request and desire. It is true that the
Venezuelan Government has expressed dssatis-
faction with Mr.. Loomis in more ways than one.
but the fact that the minister is not removed
from the diplomatic service, but receives another
post of equal dignity and honor is a mark Of the
esteem Of the State Department. Also. IL may
be noted. Mr.. Bowen. the new minister 10 Venez-
uela, goes to his post with instructions on the
same lines as those given TO Mr.. Loomis which
formed the basis for his action. that Mr..
Bowen. who is a man of great vigor. is likely to
follow Mr.. Loomis's footsteps in the matter OF
policy.
By his transfer from Venezuela to Portugal
Minister Loonis loses $500 year. He is now
leave in England. His actual rank will be
the same. that of minister extraordinary and
envoy plenpotentary.
Herbert w Bowen has a most credftable record
in the consular and diplomatic service. He be-
came United States Consul at Barcelona in $780,
and his office at that port was raised to the rank
OF consulate-general five years afterward. Mr..
Bowen remained at his post through the excit-
ing days preceding the Spanish-American War as
long any American could have safely stayed
On Spanish soil. At the close Of the war he was
about TO return to his old post. but appointed
minister resident and consul general to Persia.
Lloyd c. Griscom has had a short but brilliant
career as secretary Of legation at CONSTANT
nople. He has discharged the full duties Of
minister at that important capital for several
years and if the American mission claims have
been successfully adjusted at last a large part
! OF the credit belongs to Mr.. Griscom. He re-
ceives in his new capacity salary Of $1,000
year. He is a of the president of the Ameri-
can Line Steamship Company.
Spencer F. Eddy has had much experience in
diplomatic life. When Secretary Hay was Am
bassador to London Mr.. Eddy, who was a resi-
dent Of Chicago. became honorary and per-
sonal attache TO the Ambassador. When Mr.
Eddy returned with Mr. Hay to Washington he
was appointed third secretary of embassy at
London in February 1899. Four months later
he was promoted TO be second secretary of en-
bassy at Paris, where he has achieved great
popularity and discharged a multitude Of deli
