Queen Takes Her Clothes and Goes
The threatened break between the
king and queen of Portugal over the
attitude of the Portuguese government
toward the religious orders has finally
taken place. The young queen has
left her husband and withdrawn to
Villamanrique, not far from Seville,
where she is now staying with her
mother, the widowed countess of Paris,
who has an immense chateau and es-
tate there. Nor is ii likely that she
will return to Lisbon for many long
day, especially now that diplomatoc
intercourse between the vatican and
the Portuguese court is broken off, and
that the king and his government are
in a state of virtual conflict with the
papacy. When King Charles, after his
return from England, placed himself
in a position of antagonism to the vat
lean, the queen decided to leave the
kingdom with her children in token of
her disapproval Of her husbands pol
icy. On discovering that she would
not be allowed to take the royal chill

be impossible for her TO take up resi-
dence in any one of these, so decided
to leave the kingdom alone and with

THE CALL OF PEACE.
Aguinaldo Issues One to His Countrymen
1000 Prisoners Released.


The following is Aguinaldo's ad-
dress to the Filipino people, made pub
lie on the evening of the 10th:
II believe / am not in error in pre-
suming that the happy fate to which
my adverse fortune has led me is not a
surprise to those who have been IA
miliar with the progress of the war.
The lessons taught with full mean
ing, and which have recently come to
my knowledge, suggest with irresisti-
BILE force that complete termination
of hostilities, and lasting peace, are
not only desirable but absolutely es-
sential to the welfare of the Philip
pine islands
1.-The 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, however,
in which they find their advance along
this path to be impeded by an irresis.
tible force which, while it, restraints
them, yet enlightens their minds and
opens to them another course, pre-
senting them the cause of peace.
"This cause has been joyfully en-
braced by the majority of my fellow
couutrymen, who have already united
around the glorious sovereign banner
of the United States. In this banner
they repose their trust and belief that
under its protection the Filipino peo-
pie will attain all those promised lib
critics which they are beginning to
enjoy.
''The country has declared unmis-
takably in favor of peace. So be it,
There has been enough blood, enough
tears and enough desolation This
wish cannot be ignored by the men
still in arms if they are animated by a
desire to serve our noble people, which
has thus clearly manifested its will
So do | respect this will, now that it is
known to me.
after mature deliberation, | reso-
lutely proclaim to the world that
cannot refuse to heed the voice of a
people longing for peace, nor the la
mentations of thousands of families
yearning TO see their dear ones njoy-
ing the liberty and promised generosity
of the great American nation.
"By acknowledging and accepting
the sovereignty of the United States
throughout the Philippine archipelago,
as l now do and without any reserva-
ton whatsoever, believe that | am
serving thee, my beloved country. May
happiness be thinev'
To signalize this important step in
the pacifcation of the country. Gen.

Flood Damage May Reach %. 900. 600.

While western Pennsylvania was
fairly out of the clutches of the flood
on the 22d, fears of quick repetition
of the disaster, and perhaps on an in
creased scale, seemed to haunt the
people. Weather conditions are not
reassuring. 1t is again raining in
Pittsburg and advices from the head
waters of the Allegheny on the morning
of the 22d showed y renewed rise with
a continued downpour Warmer tenn
perature acting on the snow, was a
factor that also caused some apprehen-
sion. 1t is impossible TO fairly approx.
innate the loss resulting from the high
waters. Estimates vary from 81, 600, 900
to $4,000, 900, but the first figures will
probably come nearer the correct
amount.

organized as one province. The popu-

The chief of staff of the insurgent
Gen. Mascardo has surrendered at the
town of Marivales, in Bataan province,
Luzon. He said that Mascardo's band
of followers, now greatly diminished,
are in a bad way. 1t is impossible for
them to elude the Americans, they are
unable to obtain food and want to sur
render. 1t is expected that Gen. Mas
cardo himself will surrender shortly.

Malvar not to surrender, saying he
would send him 1000 recruits, money

of Aguinaldo will soon be made.

Wants to Handle the Cash.

Gov. Allen, of Porto Rico, who is
now in Washington, will urge Presi-
dent Mckinley to so construe the For
aker bill that if the Porto Rican tariff
is removed next July, as reported, the
import duties upon goods from foreign
countries into Porto Rico shall be paid
to Porto Rico and not to the treasury
of the U. S., as is at present the case
with most of the duties collected there
from foreign imports. 1t is argued
that local merchants are not benefited
if the y. 5. receive the customs re-
ceipts According to figures of G. w.
Whitehead, the collector of customs
for Porto Rico, the total import duties
for March were Ss7,75s, of which only
SIT, $50 were for American goods. March
can be taken as fair average.
