FORTY FORTS CAPTURED.
Captain Pcrshlng Infiicts Disastrous
Defeat on Macin Moros.

Manila, Oct. 5.-Capt. John ]. Per-
'shing's column has completely routed
the Macin Moros, in the island of Min
danao, killing or wounding a hundred
of them and capturing and destroying
forty forts. Two Americans were
wounded.
Tuesday the Moros retired to their
largest and strongest fort on the lake
Shore and Wednesday Capt. Pershing
attacked them with artillery. lombard
ing the enemy for three hours.
At noon Lieutenant Loring, leading a
squad of men. attempted to set fire to
the fort. He crept under the walls and
started a blaze, but the Moros discov-
cred him and forced the Americans to
retreat
During the afternoon the Sultan OF
Cabugalan led u sortie at the head of
band of fanatics armed with krisses.
They crept through the grass and
sprang up and attacked the Americans.
The Sultan was wounded six times and
boloed an American before he died. His
followers were killed.
In the darkness Wednesday night
Captain Pershing took his batteries
within a hundred yards of the fort,
closed in his infantry lines and resumed
the attack. The Moros broke through
twice and attempted to escape by the
beach, but were discovered and many
of them killed.
The Moros abandoned the fort early
Thursday. after fifteen hours lombard
ment, and Thursday Captain Pershing
destroyed the rest of the forts and re-
turned to Camp Wears.
1t is believed the moral effect OF the
defeat of the Moros will be great. Cen
eral Davis has ordered that hostilities
be stayed in order to permit the Sultan
of Bacalod and other hostile Sultans to
make peace.
The Sultans of Macin were confident
of their ability to defeat the Americans
and vowed before the fight to enter
slavery voluntarily II they themselves
were defeated.
General Davis has sent General Sum-
ner, in command of the American
forces in Mindanao. a congratulatory
telegram on the success of Captain Per-
shing and the small American loss.

Anti-saloon League VS.. Funston.

Springfield. Ohio. Oct. 6.-Edwin
Dinwiddie, president of the American
Anti-Saloon League, gave out the fol-
lowing statement yesterday with refer
ence to the attitude of the league on
the army canteen:
"If such reports as that published
from General Funston are correct, two
things are apparent. First, the can
teen or beer-selling army saloons SO de-
bauched the men in the service that
these conditions of drunkenness and
disorder exist, not by reason of its
abolition, but because its presence dur
ing the twelve years has had demor-
alizing effect on officers and men; sec
ond, when generals and commanding
officers are ready to state that they
cannot maintain discipline without a
beer saloon, it is certain proof Of their,
incompetency
I'VE advocate the present law on the
broad principle that the government
should neither be in the saloon busi-
ness, permit premises to be used for
such purposes nor officially tempt its
soldiers to drink"

General Booth in New York.

New York, Oct. 6.-The Academy
of Music was completely filled with
three audiences yesterday, gathered
to listen to the preaching of General
Booth of the Salvation Army, who rs
in this country on an evangelical cam
paign. Meetings were held at IL
o'clock, 3 o'clock and o'clock. The
estimates of those officers of the To-
cal staff who have charge of the meet
ings in this city were that 5000 per-
sons heard General Booth. A contin-
uous and heavy rain had no effect in
keeping either Salvation Army people
or the general public from the meet
ings. About one-third Of those pres
ent wore Salvation Army regalia.

Edinburgh, Oct. 6.-The new marble
bath ordered by Mr. Carnegie for
Akibo Castle is finished. 1t is the
costliest and biggest private bath in
the kingdom. 1t is ninety feet long
and thirty-six feet wide, with steps
leading to the water. On all sides are
luxurious dressing rooms to match the
bath, which is a copy of an ancient
Roman bath. Sea water from the
German ocean is pumped from far
away Dernoch Firth, by a private
pumping plant.
The baln was recently opened cere-
moniously with procession headed
by pipers, while Carnegie's house par
ty went romping in the water in suit

STRATTON WILL CASE.
Probate Proceedings Postponed Until
Next Month.

Colorado Springs, Oct. 5.-Judge Orr,
in the County Court yesterday, ruled
that the Stratton will should not be
presented for probate in that court un-
til November 10th, and all proceedings
before that tribunal will be continued
to that date. This does not prevent
the executors taking such steps as may
be deemed necessary to expedite mat
ters, but it is understood that the case
will be allowed to rest until the time
set by Judge Orr. The administrators
played a game of delay and had the
court postpone the hearing of the will
until later in the day, and intimated
that they would attempt to have post
ponement until some day the next
week.
When the second attempt was made
at 1880 o'clock to probate the will be-
fore Judge Orr the attorneys for l.
Harry Stratton, the son, appeared and
asked the court to issue a summons
calling all the legatees and beneficiaries
into court at some later date. to be
present when the will should formally
be offered for probate.
This was strenuously objected to by
the attorneys for the executors. Judge
Orr overruled their objections and i'm
mediately ordered the citation issued
and set November 10th as the day when
the legatees should appear and the will
be probated. The effect of this order is
to stop all procedure in connection with
probating the will until that date.
In the District Court Judge w. s.
Seeds set the hearing for the contro-
versy between the executors and ad-
ministrators for next Thursday morn
ing. Judge Seeds will probably be out
of town and Judge Cunningham will
preside. 1t is thought that the exec
nutors will ask for more time on certain
matters connected with the admins
traitors appointment, and contin-
uance of the entire matter is possible

trial School for Girls viii be formally
dedicated with appropriate exercises,
this evening and friends of the insti-
tuition are invited to be present. The
program viii include addresses and
singing by the girls
The finishing OF Tho building was pro
longed somewhat owing to delays of
an unavoidable nature; laterly the
work OF placing the furnishings was
interrupted 50 that although the build
ing was practically ready for occu-
pancy on the first of August. plans for
the de,iicatory exercises were not at
tempted until all was settled and the
lat nome" feeling prevailed the place
Since the burning of Erskine hall No.
:. about two years ago. Baker and
FlaEg-Dummer halls have been filled
to their entire capacity. Each of the
latter halls have accommodations for
IS girls and with the added number of
girls and the officers Of the burned
school there has of course been some
overcrowdinc. But for the fact that
many Of the girls were boarded and
others allowed to work in homes in this
vicinity and elsewhere, a temporary
building would have been necessary for
their accommodation
F.rskine hall is model home school
of its kind. II was built at a cost of
about $4,000 and is similar in archi-
lecture 10 Baker and FiagG-pummer
halls. both of which have been built
within few years There are ample
accommodations for Is girls and every
department for here or school pur-
poses lays claim to all of the advant-
ages and conveniences from the modern
side. The building is withal. well
planned. and will meet all the require
mants of the institution.
