MAN1LA.-Native scouts from Banga-
bon, province Of Neuva Ecija, have killed
the American negro. David Fagin, a de-
serter from the Twenty fourth infantry
(colored). who for more than two years
has been leading Fiipinos against the
American troops. The native scouts de-
capitated their prisoner. The mans head.
however. was recognized as that of Fa-
gin. They also secured his commission
in the insurgent army. Fagin had on one
OF his fingers the class ring of Lieuten-
ant Frederick w. Alstaetter of the en-
gineers. who was captured by Filipinos,
supposedly under the command Of Fagin.
ST. PETER9BURGEThe ministry of
the interior today issued statement
about the famine in which 1t was stated
that 5.5OO,0O0 pounds of winter grain and
5000 of summer grains have been pur-
chased and forwarded to the needy dis
tricts. The total grain purchases are
given as exceeding 100000 pools. for
which 100000 roubles have been ex-
pended. The entire famine fund so far
disposable Is 14.213,259 roubles. The
original estimates of grain to relieve the
famine districts are now found to be ex-
cessive. and they have consequently been
rudeced in number of cases.
SCRANTON, Pa.-Many Of the dele
gates to the convention Of the American
Federation of Labor. now in session in
this city, did not cease their activity, de-
spite the fact that yesterday was Sunday.
The executive council was in secret ses-
sion for several hours, but nothing was
given out for publication. The Metal
Trades Federation held another meeting
and discussed plans for perfecting the
organization. Nine of the Is eligible
metal trades unions in the United States
were represented. The. American Fed
Grafton Of Labor convention will remain
in session for the next six days. Proba-
bly, the most vital question that will
come before the convention Is that of
trade autonomy. The brewery workmen
and the mine workers delegates probably
will be the storm center on this question.
WASHINGTON-The only measure Of
Importance which the senate has on its
calendar for the present week Is the new
treaty making provision
for the abrogation of the Clayton Bulwer
treaty and opening the way for the un
INSTRUCTED construction Of an isthman
canal by the United States. Acting for
the committee on foreign relations, Sem
ator'L Lodge will ask the senate to go into
executive session tomorrow for the con-
sideration Of the treaty and each day
thereafter until the convention is dis
posed of. It can be said that at this
time the prospect is very strong that the
treaty will be ratified. and it now looks
as If this result would be secured after
comparatively little delay. There will be
some debate and some features of the
document will be criticised as undesira-
BILE. but there is no probability Of
captious opposition.

STOCKADE BURNED.
Mr.. Ii. T. Lynch Sustained Loss
of $500 by Fire Early Sat-
urday Morning.

The stockade, crib and several ad-
iacant sheds on Mr.. H. T. Lynch's
place, few miles south of Dawson,
were totally destroyed by fire Satur-
day morning, The fire was discovered
at about FIVE o'clock by negro boy in
she employ of Mr.. Lynch and he i'm
mediately gave the alarm, but all eff
forts to extinguish the fire were fu-
tile. The loss will exceed 800. The
crib contained quantity of corn, fod-
der, hay and oats, all of which was a
total loss.
1t is not known positively how the
fire originated, but it is thought that
some one of the Hands on the place
carelessly throwed a match or lighted
cigar or cigar ette down in the barn,
and the inAamable contents thus ig-
nited.
Mr.. Lynch had no insurance and the
loss falls heavily upon him.

THE TROUBLE WITH LABOR.
IrreguIarity Is More Serious
Than Scarcity.

The experience of farmers in plant
ing and cultivating their crops this
year is beyond comparison more ag-
gravating than that of any other year
in the last decade.
At no time since the preparation for
planting begun this year have more
than a few farmers been able to secure
the service of as many laborers as they
needed. 1t is perhaps fact that in
numbers there are not enough to do all
the necessary farm work promptly.
But the fact most aggrevating is
that large proportion of the negroes
in the county will not work regularly,
and many of these are unreliable.
They do not regard a promise as in
any degree binding.
Several farmers have said that no t
only are they unable to rely upon the
promises of the negro day hands, but
that they are more sloathful and shift
less this year than ever before.

Birmingham Won Again.

Birmingham 6, Shreveport 4. On a muddy diamond, where players slipped and fell all over themselves in their frantic efforts to chase the rolling sphere, Birmingham took the second game from Reeds leaders from the banks of Red river. The fire works began in the first inning and continued, with few in- termissions, up to the last round, the To- calls taking the better end of the argu- ment. It was zip, bang and ''you gre safe' until the hard-worked umpire grew weary with much talk.
 Birmingham started in at the very be- ginning to clinch the game. and when the first chapter ended she had four elegant little marks chalked up to her credit. and the fans breathed easy. Not until the sixth inning did the visitors appear dan gerous, although they had men on bases in every preceding inning; but great pitching by Wilhelm and the magnificent support accorded him prevented opposing runners reaching counting territory.
 Both pitchers were hit rather freely, but Lucid yielded hits when they were most needed, and this, coupled with his wild- ness, enabled the locals to place another victory to their credit.
 A light shower of rain fell shortly after o'clock covering the diamond with a thin layer of nun, but notwithstanding this condition, only one error was made, and that was not very costly
 Leidy's batting and a running catch by the same player. Mills pickup of two hot grounders and long, running catch by Montgomery were the features Of the game.
 On account of the condition of the. dia- mond the game did not begin until 4:20 but when the teams did trot onto the field they were cheered by fully thou sand of the faithful.
 The locals went to bat first and scored four runs Moss walked, but was forced at second on Veitch's hit to short Leidy hit to center for a single and Get tinger to right for double. scoring Veitch. Lucid passed Burnett and La- Rocque to first. forcing in Lefdy. Mills flied out to right and Culver singled to right and Wilhelm to left, scoring Get tinger and Burnett. Moss retired the side on a fly to right
 Two more runs were added in the third on Mills base on balls, Culver's sacrifice. Wilhelms dinky infleld hit and Keefe's huff of fly from Veitch's bat. This ended the locals run getting.
 The visitors made one in the second on Weikart's and Hills base on balls and singles by McGuire and Bammert. A fast double play from Wilhelm to Culver to LaRocque retired the side with two bases still occupied.
 Three more runs were made by the visitors in the sixth. After Bammert had gone. third to first. Lucid singled along left field foul line and Montgomery landed one in right field, but was thrown out at second on O'Rourke's hit to first. Keefe was given his base and Hulsman hit past second for single weixart placed a safe bingle in right, and O'Rourke and Keefe scored.
