WASHINGTON, March 29.-Another i'm
portant dispatch was received at the Wa
Department to-day from Gen. Macarthur
at Manila, dated to-day. 1t did not refer
to Aguinaldo or Funston, but in the opin-
ion of the War Department officials, 1t
went far to support the prediction made
by Gen. Macarthur in yesterdays dis
patch relating to those two leaders, to the
effect that the end of the rebellion is near
at hand. This dispatch chronicles the sur
render of a considerable additional num-
Der Of rebels and military arms, and the
important feature of it is that the sur
render marks the complete stamping out
of the insurrection in the island of Min
danao which is next to Luzon, the largest
island in the Philippine group. The dis
patch is as follows:

PENNSBORO. w. Va. March 2s.-
An attempted assassination six miles
from here wal followed last night by
a mysterious murder. Greed Jones, a
young farmer. who was we'll liked in
the community and prosperous, was
the victim and was killed in his own
yard only a few feet from his door.
Jones was a married man about IS
years old. He a sitting in his home
with his family playing the violin.

and thrust the muzzle of a shotgun
through the opening and shot him, the
shot taking effect in the shoulder.
Jones pursued the assassin into the
yard. He was found later about one
hundred yards from the house dead
His head was literally blown OF, four
shots having taken effect in his body.
The shotgun was found near the body.
The coroner's inquest to-day laid the
terrible crime on his brother, Ard

The evidence showed that Ard Jones

URGING FUNSTON'S CLAIMS.

WASHINGTON, March 29.-The Kansas
Congressional delegation has decided to
urge the President to appoint Gen. Fun
ston a brigadier general in the regular
army. The members of the Kansas dele
cation do not consider that a ~brigadier
generalship would be too great a reward
for Gen. Funston's exploit and point to
Gen. MacArthur's recommendation that
he be appointed to that grade as complete
demonstration of the great service he has
rendered to the government.
They would not be surprised, however,
If considerable opposition to giving Fun
ston a brigadier generalship should de-
velop at the War Department. There Is
no disposition to belittle Funston's ex-
plot, but there would naturally be oppo-
sition there to jumping a volunteer officer
80 years of age into the grade of ~brigadier
general, and the Kansas delegation rec
ogpize this fact.
Senator Burton and Representatives
Long n Curtis saw the President, who
listened attentively, and said that he had
the matter under consideration. The del
egation were careful to say that the Pres
ident gave them no promise.

SITUATION EXPLAINED.

MANILA, March 29.-Aguinaldo to-
day conferred in the Tagalon language,
at the Malacanan palace, with several
former members OF his cabinet and
other prominent Filipinos, whom he
had asked to see. they explained to
him the hopelessness of the insurgent
cause and advised him to use his in
uence to establish peace and for the
recognition of American sovereignty.
The result of the conferences is as yet
unknown.
The first execution in Manila under
American rule took place to-day at
Fort Malate, where five natives were
hanged for the murder of Archibald
Wilson, an Englishman, superintend-
ent Of the water works. The motive
for the murder was robbery.
Twelve thousand FIlipinos have
taken the oath of allegiance to the
United States at San Vincente, South
Ilocos, of this province.
Some hours elapsed before the news
of A~guinaldo's capture was generally
known. The fact that he was a pris-
oner caused joy and congratulation
among the Americans. The native
population was apathetic. There was
no particular excitement anywhere.
After being convinced of Aguinal-
dos capture, Gen. Geronimo, the in
surgent leader in the province of Mo-
rong. Luzon, has surrendered with six
officers, 46 men and 50 rifles to Col. j.
Milton Thomas, of the Frty-second
regiment, at San Mateo.
AS the news Of Aguinaldo's capture
spreads through the archipelago the in
Eurgents are becoming disheartened
and there is a marked increase in the
number of individual surrenders.
Gen. Cables, who is practically out
lawed on account of his atrocious
crimes, sent an emissary to General
Bates, who answered that he must sur
render Internationally and stand trial.
The former insurgent officers and
the Macabebe scouts who took part in
the capture of Aguinaldo will prob
ably receive a monetary reward. The
amount has not been specified.
1t has also been recommended that
every man participating in the capture
of Aguinaldo receive a special medal.

He Is III informed.

He Is III informed.
BERLIN, March 29.-The conserya-
tive papers to-day do not discuss En-
peror Williams speech to the En-
perOr Alexander grenadier regiment
at their new barracks yesterday, but
the liberal papers generally comment
on his maJesty's ~utterances, empha-
sizing the statement that emperor is
i'll informed concerning the character
OF the March (1848 revolution in Ber-
lin. The National Zeitung expresses
its inability to comprehend what cur
rent events induced the emperor to
refer to the revolution of 1S48, and
says it does not see any signs of his
majesty needing a bodyguard. The
Vossisiche Zeitung is also unable to
see any occasion for the emperor's
words, since nobody in Berlin is
thinking of a revolution, and his ma
jesty's predecessors repeatedly rec
ognized the loyalty of Berlin's popu-
lation.
The Vorwaerts cites a number Of
previous speeches of the emperor, ex-
horting the soldiers to fight for him
when necessary, and claims it has au-
thentic information that his words
were literally as follows: IF the city
of Berlin should again impudently and
disobediently rise against the king,
as in 184S, then my grenadiers it will
be your duty, with the points of your
bayonets, to ~annihilate the impudent
and disobedient."
The Tageblatt is amazed and asks
what has occurred to justify the m
peror's words. 1t points out that the
revolution of 1S4S was not directed
against the lHohenzollern dynasty
and appeals from the ill-informed m
peror to the emperor rightly informed.

berg, Of battery G, Third artillery.
When Aguinaldo was captured he
wore a plain dark blue suit, with the
coat closely buttoned at the throat, and
a wide, white helmet with a leather
band. He takes his capture philoso-
phically. He is generally cheerful, but
sometimes moody. His health during
the past year has been very good. 1t
is uncertain what attitude he will now
assume.
Gen. Trias, the commander of the
insurgent forces in southern Luzon.
who recently surrendered to the Amer
lean authorities, visited Aguinaldo and
told the latter why he surrendered.
Trias said that a continuance Of armed
opposition to the United States was

dependence of the Philippines was i'm

better accept liberty, prosperity and

The capture of Aguinaldo, following
the surrender of Gen. Trias, will prob
ably occasion the surrender of the in
surgent leader Malavar, Batangas prov
ince, Luzon; Bellarmina, in Albay
province, Luzon, and Lucban, in the
island of Samar, within a month.
Many people visited the residence OF
Gen. and Mrs. Funston, on the Gale
Real, in the suburb of Ermita. The
general modestly declined to talk.
Mrs. Funston was evidently the hap
piest woman in the Philippine islands.
Gen. Funston has been recommend
ed for the highest practicable reward.
1t is believed here that he will receive
an appointment as brigadier general
in the regular army.

Pittsburg District Scale Ratified
Irwin Operators Refuse to Mce1

PITTSBURG, Pa, March 29.-The coal
operators of the Irwin field posted no
tees at all the mines to-day that the rate
of wages for the ensuing year from April
1st will remain the same as last year.
The notice is aiken as an indication that
the operators will not meet the mine
workers. officials in conference on the
question of adopting the Pittsburg scale,
and an effort may be made to enforce a
strike. There are 25,G0 miners in the r.
win district, but the operators claim that
only ten per cent are in the union and
the others are satisfied with the scale
and conditions.
The miners of the Pittsburg district, in
convention here to-day, ratified the wage
scale signed last week by the wage COM
mittee. This action ensures steady en-
ployment for more than 10000 men in this
district for the coming year.
The convention then went into executive
session to consider the situation in the
Irwin district, and devise means to in
duce the miners in hat district to insist
upon the adoption of the Pittsburg scale.
