Pierpont Morgan Tells Delegate he Viii
Endeavor to Prevent One.
(By the Associated Press. J


New York, March ga delegation com.
posed of FIVE men representing trade in
terests in the Pennsylvania anthracite
coal regions with Rev. Edward S. Phillips
acting as chairman, held a conference to-
day with ]. Pierpont Morgan, in the
private office of Mr.. Morgan in this city
The conditions of unrest in the anthracite
coal region at present were set forth in
Phillips, who presented the delegation to
Mr. Morgan, and to whom Mr.. Morgan ex~
pressed his interest in their errand and
his willingness to make personal effort
to prevent a strike, though he declined
to hold a public conference with the la
Dor leaders
Arrangements for this meeting were
made last week by the officials of the
various boards of trade of the coal region
of Pennsylvania, through Rev. Father
Phillips, the chairman. Father Phillips
made a brief presentation, saying that
the delegation were there merely to try
to bring about some action that would
prevent a strike; that they were ready to
act as an intermediary body or to be
used in any way that would compose any
differences existing.
Father Phillips asked Mr.. Morgan If
he would meet John Mitchell, President
of the United Mine Workers Association.
who has been in New York for several
days.
Mr.. Morgan in reply said in substance
that his attitude up to the present has
been towards the prevention Of a strike.
He assured them that they could rely
upon him to do all within his power to
prevent any action that would paralyze
business He remarked, however. that
he was disincllned to held a public con-
fl renee with the labor leaders. indicating
as a reason the belief that, should pGo-
lie meeting between himself and the n
Dor leaders be held. the publicity thereof
and possibly attendant conclusion might
hamper the achievements of the best
ends which all were seeking. Mr.. Morgan
added that the ends sought could best be
achieved through other channels. and he
assured the delegation that he might
communicate with the boards of trade
later.
You may rest assured that l believe
there will be no strike" remarked Mr..
Morgan.
Mr.. Morgan shook hands with the mem
bers of the delegation and they departed.
Mr. Morgan after the conference declined
to make any statement relative thereto

Washington, March 27--The present
plans of the War Department contem-
plate the maintenance of an army of
$4,000 men in the Philippines until or
der has been completely established I'M
der the proposed new civil government
and the garrisons can he safely reduced
to a peace footing. here are now Co.
900 troops in the Philippines and China,
and the original plan was to maintain
an army of $4,000 men in the Philip
pines until a stable government had
been established. The plan was to re-
place the volunteers, numbering about
$4,000 with regulars To an extent suffi-
cient to keep up all existing garrisons
throughout the archipelago, but it has
been found to be impracticable to do So
under existing conditions within the
short time Intervening before the first
of July next, when the volunteer army
must be disbanded The failure of the
plan is due to the lack of available of
ficers in this country to organize the
new regiments authorized by Congress
and not SO much to the difficulty of re-
cruiting the regiments

CAPTURE MADE SATURDAY
Funston Took Him in the Province Of
Isabella
THE DARING SCHEME OF THE AMERICAN
Borne Into The Presence Of Aguinado as
Prisoner, He Throws OFF the Mask aud
Makes the Filipino Leader
His Captive.
(By the Associated Press.)


Manila, March Thursday
eral Frederick Funston's daring project
for the capture of Aguinaldo in his hiding
place in the Province of Isabella, Island
full
Aguinaldo was captured there March
23rd.
The United States gunboat Vicksburg,
Commander E. B. Barry with General
Funston and Aguinaldo on board, arrived
here this morning.
How this daring capture was effected
is shown in the following dispatch from
Manila under date of the 23rd instant:
General Funston is now engaged in a
daring project which promises to be the
greatest and most romantic achievement
of his eventful career.
in January, from his hiding place in
the Province of Isabella, Aguinaldo wrote
letters matchmaking the sub-chiefs
who had taken the oath of allegiance to
the United States. Later, Aguinaldo or
dered certain insurgent forces in South
ern Luzon to join him at rendezvous in
Isabella Province. The rebel entrusted
with these orders secretly negotiated with
the Americans. On securing necessary
information, General Funston planned
AguinaIdos capture and, with General
MacArthur's authorization, proceeded
two weeks ago to make the attempt
General Funston, with Surgeon Major
Harris. Captain Newton, of the Thirty
fourth infantry; Lieutenant Admire, OF
the Twenty second infantry; Lieutenant
Mitchell, of the Fortfeth infantry: six
veteran scouts. and a company OF native
scouts, all picked men, embarked on the
gunboat Vicksburg, and were landed on
remote beach above BaIer. II was ar
ranged that Aguinaldo'# emissary with
the native scouts should pass themselves
off as insurgent troops who, having cap
tured General Funstons and others were
taking them as prisoners to Aguinaldo.
At the right time, when brought before
Aguinaldo, General Funston was to give
a signal when the tables were to be
turned and Aguinaldo was to be seized.

THE RESULT VET UNCERTAIN. /
Russia Says the Agreement Will Probably be
Signed Shortly. -

st. Petersburg, March 27.-The CORE
spondent of the Associated Press is in
formed on competent authority that the
Russo Chinese agreement will probably
be signed shortly. However. the nego-
tiations continue and the. result is not
yet certain. While it is possible the de-
tails will be slightly modified, the ar
rangements will be substantially as de-
manded. According to the Russian point
of view an abatement of what are here
regarded as moderate demands would be
inconsistent with Russian interests and
would not sufficiently safeguard the from
tier and railroad. The draft of the agree
ment now being discussed does not men
tion and does not affect Mongolia or

him Y the 50 feet Of space to the
steps leading to the prison Office His
legs went back on him on the steps.
The top was reached with Mitchell

and shriekihgi into the Office. His
cries were terrifc-a series OF p~Folong-
ed, agonized howls-aOh, OH
BY the time he was thrown on the
settee- he was drooling at the mouth
and every muscle Of his body was
shaking in the palsy Of fear.
But scant ceremony was accorded
him. The handouts were taken Cd.
He was dragged through the heavy.
Oaken, lronbarred door to the warden's
Office. As a matter Of fact, be was
carried with his feet dangling behind
him on the ground. -Four husky
keepers held bis shoulders and arms,
CRIES AROUSED THE ooNvIcTs.
They dumped him into a chair. a
limp ~disheyeled figure, his cries echo
Ing down the long corridors and aroas-
ing all the other convicts. He was in
a state Of absolute collapse and when
left alone rolled over on the floor.
where he lay stretched at full length.
his eyes rolling In frenzy and his
frothing lips t~witching convulsiyely.
The prison physician, Dr. Germ. was
sent for by Warden Mead. When he
came at the end Of Is minutes the
keepers had propped the assassin in a
chair, a keeper holding him on either
side. His head dropped over one arm
OF the chair and his feet were straight
out before him.
