cablegrams from Commissioner
Wright and General Chaffee:
"Manila-The facts at Morong are:
About a week ago Presidente Cainta
was kidnapped. The perpetrators or
this act were members of new or
ganization gathered at Morong prov
inve about sixty strong. They are be-
ing vigorously searched for and have
been driven to hiding, They will
probably be captured in a day or two.
They have inflicted no material dam
age and no special significance need
or should be attached to this event.

are fleeing. Small fragments of Lad

larry in the mountains of Morong and
probably aided by a few outlaws OF
that section, raided a village, kidnap-
ping the presidente. A small detach
ment of the constabulary, under a ma
tive sergeant, attacked the kidnappeTs
but made no impression, being short
of ammunition. Assistant Chief At
kinson was on the ground In few
hours with an adequate force of con-
stabulary and assisted in every way
by the native governor of the province
and the inhabitants made pursuit and

there being any hostility on the part

ton of what is passing and aid rs
much as possible. These LadroneS
don't interfere with the whites, but
confine their operations to levying
tribute upon and occasionally kidnalr

the subcommittee of which he is

of the new Panama canal company to

States should purchase the franchises

report will not be made formally I'M
til the minority holding contrary
views prepares it's report. Senator
Kittredge will prepare the minority re-
port. The minority report will be adj
verse to accepting the title of the
Panama company, cOntending that be-
fore the company can make an &C
ceptable title France must first repeal
the laws covering the companys
rights. Colombia must also repeal
certain statutes. AS to the Panama
railroad it will be pointed out that
that company is chartered by the state
of New York and this might embarrass
the United States should it destroy
that road in constructing canal.

DOCTORS CARELESS.
Responsible for Scattering the Germs
of SMALLPOX.

VI 0H1dIpOAs
Racine, Wis, March 11.-Physi-
clans who fail to report smallpox
case to the hoard of health will be
arrested and prosecuted. This move
was decided upon at a meeting OF
the board held and which lasted
until II o'clock. It has developed
that many of the physicians of the
city have been called to, attend per-
sons sick with smallpox, and that
they have failed to report these cases
and permitted the patients to mingle
with the outside world, themselves
doing the Same, and that for this rea-
son the disease has spread. At
present twenty houses are placarded
and guaranteed. In view of these
conditions the board determined to
prosecute those physicians who fail
to report their cases.
An exciting and interesting time is
expected, for the reason that several
physicians have openly stated that
they do not believe there is case of
genuine smallpox in the city and
have given certificates to persons
whom the board of health quaran-
tined, in effect that they have not
the disease. These patients are out
and around the city.
