Warm Send-Off.

factory Conference With Moros-
Horses Not Surrendered.

MANILA, May 1s.-Three thousand
who is returning to the United States, a
farewell reception at the American Club,
and presented to him a silver tablet.
making him a life member of the club.
Among those who took part in the recep-
tion were Generals Bell and Smith. No
general officer is more popular here
than General Wheaton. All the old Amer
lean residents were present, and they
crowded about General Wheaton and
shook hands with him.
General Chaffee has returned from his
trip south. He states that he had a satis-
factory conference with the dattos or
Moro chiefs in Mindanao, which assures
peace. The troops in the island. however,
will be re-enfcrced. General Davis is
opening the roads 10 Lake Lanao. near
which the recent engagement with the re-
bellious dattos was fought
May Infict More Punishment.
One datto has not yet returned a num-
Der of horses stolen from the Americans.
and this will probably necessitate fur
ther punishment being inflicted upon him.
The recent defeat of the Moros has ap-
parently brought them to a realization
Of the American power and policy.
The latest estimates are that 800 Moros
were killed in the capture by Colonel
Baldwin. OF the Bayan forts. The engage
ment was fercer than the famous fight
at the Zapote Bridge.
General Malvera. the chief insurgent
leader who surrendered a short time ago.
has issued proclamation commanding
all Filipinos to quit the field and support
the United States. Furthermore. he has
notified the Filipino iunta at Hongkong
to expect no further allegiance from the
natives here.
Oil in Cavite.
Prospectors In the province of Cayite
have struck oil and are sinking numerous
wells. The spaniards here enthusiastic
ally celebrated the coronation of King
Alfonso. The residences and places of
business were gayly decorated with the
Spanish flag and the royal standard of
Spain.
Acting Governor Wright attended a
diplomatic reception given by the Spanish
representatives. The Spaniards have ex-
hibited the best feeling toward the
Americans since the occupation.
The cholera is apparently not gaining.
but in the neighboring provinces it is
spreading seriously. Several towns have
been decimated by the scOurge.

Bryan and Senor Quesada were among the
number.
Senior ouesada said the occasion was
memorable as showing weak people man
ifesting gratitude to a strong people, who
| were lowering their own flag and hosting
that OF the weaker people. Mr.. Bryan said
he regretted that he could not address the
Cubans in their own language He was
proud to be present to address those who
had shown such faith and energy in their
own good cause.
Praised General Wood.
He praised General Wood and .he mill
tary government, saying he was proud that
the temporary occupation OF Cuba by the
United States had been so conducted as to
enable the Cubans to wish the American
soldiers godspeed. Patriotism, he de-
clared was the one fitting subject. He
would not address them in the name of the
American Government, but as simple
American citizen he wished to tell them
that the American people wished them
success.
Americans would regret their failure as
joice at their success as much as they.
Americans were proud they had kept
pledge the world said that they would not
keep.
Question of Flags.
In conclusion. Mr. Bryan said it did not
pain him to see the flag of his country
come down. He had learned that the flag
that floats over one does not matter.
What matters is the flag that floats in
the heart. and If the Americans left the
island leaving the Stars and Stripes en-
graved in the hearts of the Cubans, that
was all he wished.
Mr. Kohly said the Cubans would be
eternally grateful to the Americans. The
banquet was a proof OF what he bad al
ways maintained-namely, that good spirit
existed toward the Americans. He be-
lieved the government would be stable
He added:
eve all wish you success. and feel tina
you Will all assist the man who has com
to fulfill a duty which he regards as al
most divine"
Gen. Maxine Gomez said he babe adie
and godspeed to the American soldiers
and 10 General Wood who had rendered
such great services to Cuba. Addressing
General Wood personally he said he
hoped he would not forget that he had |
won the affections of the Cuban people.
Many Handsome Presents.
General and Mrs. Wood received num-
Der of handsome presents from Cubans |
and Spaniards of Havana. The ladies' Of
Havana gave Mrs. Wood a massive silver

Advised to Leave Region.
Father Curran. Of the Holy Saviour
Church. today advised every unmarried
coal striker to leave the region. go West
to the soft coal fields. or North or East
to the farms. and there earn money to
keep Themselves and aid their relatives
during the coal strike.
1T is going TO be a long one" he said.
You will have to rely upon yourselves a
great deal. Go where you can earn money.
You can get none by loafing about here"
He spoke from the pulpit. and told the
members Of the congregation to spread
his advice. Many clergymen, especially
IN the Catholic churches, spoke today re-
gardng the strike. advising moderation
and obedience TO the law. The Polish and
Lithuanian priests made a special point of
the fact that their parishioners are for
peace and the majority Of the foreigners
of the anti-stfike party. Father Gram
lewicz. Of Nanticoke. said:
"A couple Of fool men in my congrega-
tion are causing all the strike agitation
here"
Against a Strike.
Father Klonowsh, who has the largest
Polish congregation in this city, said nine
tenths OF his people were against a strike,
but would be faithful TO the union and do
as the majority did. The owners of sew
eral washeries along the line between this
county and Lackawanna are preparing to
start their plants Monday, using non
union men, and protect them with coal
and iron police, large number Of these
having been sworn In and armed.
Tomorrow the companies will drive the |
men from the culm banks who have been |
picking coal there. thus shutting off the |
supply of a number who are unable to |
buy COAL chiefly the striking miners. /
The coal and iron police will guard these
banks.
To Have Headquarters.
