Charges $50 FilipinOs and
Makes Havoc Among Them.

Manila, Nov. 26.-Second Lieut..
Louis j. Van Schaick, of the Fourth
infantry, while scouting with a few
men of that regiment, met $50 insur-
gents who had attacked and sacked
the hamlet of Siaraca, near Cavite.
Upon seeing the Filipinos, Van
Schaick ordered his men to charge
them. The command was obeyed, and
Van Schaick, being mounted, reached
the insurgents 60 yards in advance
of his men. He killed three of them
with his revolver. An insurgent fired
his rifle point blank at Van Schaick
at four PAGES, but missed.
Lieut.. Van Schaick was ; then
knocked from his horse. He jumped
to his feet and engaged in a hand-to-
hand conflict with the enemy, using
the butt of his revolver. He sus-
tanned two severe wounds, one of
which nearly severed his wrist. At
his point the lieutenant's men ar
rived, rescued him and put the in
surgents to flight.

Gen. Hughes, commander of the de-

negotiations are about completed for
the surrender of the insurgent leader
Sampson, on Bohol island. This sur
render will doubtless end the revolt
against the American authority in
Bohol, as Sampson is acknowledged
to be the best insurgent leader there.

Washington, Nov. 2G.-Two Ameri-

which have been in use for nearly
nine months in Bavaria. have proved
entirely satisfactory, except as to
their whistles, whose sound is pro-
nounced "unearthly." This informa-
ton has been communicated by Con-
sul-Gcneral Mason at Berlin. The roy

of an American locomotive, and two
locomotives, according to this sys-
tenn, with certain modification, are

THE AYRES MURDER TRIAL.
Five Witnesses Testify, But Bring
Out Nothing Not Developed at
COroner's Inquest.

Washington, Nov. 26.-The trial Of
Mrs. Lola Ida Bonine for the murder
of James Seymour Ayres, Jr., at the
Kenmore hotel last May. began in
real earnest yesterday. The prelim-
mary details as to the finding of the
body, the location of the furniture,
Elood stains, etc, all were in with the
testimony of J. c. Drew, the Capitol
policeman, who was on the stand
when the court adjourned Friday

nine descend the fire escape; Hopkins,
Who roomed over Ayres ana raisedthe
first outcry; Miss Wollums. who
roomed under Ayres, and Miss Law

either side of him, testified yester-
day.
The two latter were regarded as
star witnesses, but they testified to
no facts not developed at the in
guest. Drew testified that there was
room enough behind the door of Avres'
room for "A man to have been there
while the door was opened to admit
another person. contention which
the prosecution deny; and also that
there were empty cartridges in the
slop jar in Ayres' room before the
pistol with which the shooting was
done was emptied by Officer Brady,
after the tragedy. This would tend
to establish the theory of the de-
Tense that the pistol belonged to
Ayres.
Miss Minas testified that Ayre9and
Mrs. Bonine ate ice cream and cake
in her room the night before ths
tragedy. and that at that time there
was no evidence of ill-feeling between

THE ABUSE OF THE MAILS.
Annual Report of Third Assistant
Postmaster-Gepern Edwin
4. Madden.

Washington, Nov. 26.-Third As
sistant Postmaster-Genera Edwin c.
Madden, in his annual report, recon-
mends the consolidation of third and
fourth class mail matter; an in
crease of the limit of indemnity for
the loss of registered matter from
$40 to 500, and that postal employees
be made liable for the value of reg
istcred matter lost through their
carelessness.
The total postal revenues for the
year. from all sources. were SILL
631.193. being S3,923, ,727 less than the
expenditures
This is exclusive of the cost OF
transporting the mails over the subsi-
died Pacific railroads that have not
yet settled their bonded accounts
with the government. The total value
of stamped paper and stamp books is
sued during the year was $f04, ,7s5,9S7.
The issue of pastage stamp books is
regarded as Il successful experiment.
The 4,69S,425 stamp books issued
have cost the department S4.69 per
thousand TO manufacture. There were
659,614,S00 postal cards issued.
The amount of second class matter
mailed free of postage to actual sub
scribers within the county of publ-
cation constitutes practically seven
per cent. of the entire amount
mailed.
Mr.. Madden says it is but ques-
ton of time, if the rate of increase of
second class matter continues, before
1t will consume most, if not all, OF
the revenues derived from other
classes of mail matter
While second class mail matter,
combined with its necessary equip
ment, constitutes approximately two
thirds of the combined weight Of all
the four classes of mail matter, 1t fur
nishes only slightly over four per
cent. of the revenue from all postages
About fifty per cent. of this nominal
and unsustaining rate, Mr.. Madden
says, is due to construction of the
statutes which has permitted the adj
mission of a great number of alleged
newspapers and periodicals which a~e
merely pretensions.
The principal abuses of the pound
rate named by the report are sample
copies, bulk subscriptions, book Sc
| rials, return copies to news agen, s
and premiums to subscribers, the lat
ter being characterized as the king
of abuses.

Three Crops of Potatoes.

Prof. w. S. Thomas. who resides on
q model farm at Alexander on the
iron Mountain. makes very import,
ant and interesting report to the Little
Rock board of trade, showing that
three crops of potatoes per year is now
undertaken by the farmers of his sec
uon OF Arkansas: In his report Prof
Thomas SAYS: The second crop of
irish potatoes. planted in August from
the seed of the first crop. which was
planted in March and harvested in
June, has become a very important in
du2try. In this immediate vicinity
ABOUT four thousand bushels have been
harvested, and the quality is superior
u the hrst crop. and much better than
northern, both for seed and eating. A
number of our farmers have planted
.he third crop. which will be harvested
III march, and of this crop the mode of
culture differs materially from that of
uhe hrst and second crops. 1t is but
snort time since the expectation of DO
'"1oes was thought of Now it is lu-
eratiVe business. Think of it: three
Niops IN year. The future will show
central Arkansas to be the finest
u luck farm in the world"

THE ATLANTIC COAST STORM
The Losses VIII Foot I'd Much Greater
Than First Estimated-B Bodies
Washing Up.

New York, Nov 25.-Reports of tn.
damage done by the storm of Satur-
day night and Sunday continue TO
come in. Details from points on the
Jersey coast, the southern coast of
Long Island and upper shore of Long
Island sound show that the destruc-
ton was widespread and the none
tary loss much heavier than at first
supposed.
Long Branch reports tonight show
that hardly building there escaped
some damage. As evidence of the
force of the wind, plank about TWEEN
ty feet long. seven inches wide and
two inches thick. was torn from the
roof of the pier pavilion and blown
across Ocean avenue. 1t struck the
BenoX hotel end-on, and was driven
into the side of the building to "a
depth of four OF five feet.
The wreck of the tug Haddon at
Long Branch is complete. The ship
Flottbek stands almost upright in the
sand. The work of unrigging her
commenced to-day. She will be un-
loaded as she lies. This will be com
paratively easy. All that will be need
ed will be to back wagons up to her
sides at low water and load the car
go into them.
The railroads are gradually getting
their tracks in working order, but at
some places no trains have yet been
run.
Besides the loss resulting from
stoppage of traffic. it will take many
thousands of dollars TO repair the
breaks. Temporary repairs are be-
ing made as fast as possible.
The wealthy New Workers who
have summer houses on the upper
shore of the sound to-day visited
them to find wreck and ruin in all
directions. The shore improvements
are in ruin, while fine shade trees are
laid low and extensive lawns piled
high with sand and wreckage.
Reports still come in from points
in New Jersey, on Staten Island
sound and the surrounding inland
waters. 1t will take days to figure
out the loss.

for the First Time, Lands Men mt
Pannna-Fhe Colombian Troops
and the Liberals Fighting.

Washington. Nov. 26.-The United
States government has taken charge
of the isthmiah transit. \ dispatch
received at the navy department from
Capt. Perry Of the battleship Iowa, at
Panama. reports that fact. Capt. Per-
~ says that Gen. Alban. with GOO men,
is fighting the liberals on the line
near Empire. Transit is in danger of
interruption. Capt. Perry has landed
with detachment of men from the
lova, and has started, with a train
to clear transit. and also establish de-
tachments of men to keep it so.
Commander McCrea of the Machias,
at Colon, has cabled the navy depart
ment, notifying the department of
the approaching bombardment Of
the town, and asking for instructions
HE HAS BEEN INSTRUCTED TO
TAKE SUCH STEPS AS HE DEEMS
NECESSARY FOR THEPROTECTION
OF AMERICAN INTERESTS At CO
LON.
While no specific outline is made a.
to the details of this instruction, il
is understood that it leaves discre-
tionary with Commander McCrea the
prevention of a bombardment.
If the government troops on the
Pinzcn should persist in their pur-
pose, it is said that the commanders
of the various war ships at Colon
would require that ample time be al
lowed for the withdrawal from the
town of all foreigners, and that the
attacking force, to escape restraint.
would be obliged to direct their bonn
bardment with such rare precision as
to destroy the insurgent defenses
without harming the railroad prop
erty, and even without endangering
the passage of trains, conditions prob
ably not to be met.
The secretary of the navy yester-
day cabled Capt. Perry of the Iowa to
assume full command o; all the Unit
ed States naval forces on both sides
of the isthmus, in order to insure
harmonious operations.
