INSURGENTS ARE
 HUNTING SHELTER
GENERAL OUTLOOK FOR PEACE IN THE ARCHIPELAGO EVERY WHERE EXCEPT ON sAMAR IS FAVORABLE.

Manila January 30.-The general out look for pacification in the archipelago, everywhere outside the island of Samar, has never been more favorable since the original outbreak of the Filipino insur- rection than at the present time. The in surgents have been broken up into small bands and are everywhere fleeing for shelter. They surrender daily and are cap tured or killed.
 The policy of recommendation and the stern measure of closing the ports to commerce have accomplished everything expected of them. General Chaffee still hopes that by the end of February the island of Samar alone will have been pac- flied. Those provinces bordering on the provinces of Batangas and Laguna, in southern Luzon, have been patrolled by the native .constabulary. who have done excellent work.
 The members of the United States Philippine commission are proud of this const abulary. which was organized fol- lowing their suggestion, and the greatest care is exercised in the selection of of- fcers of this force. During the past month eighty-two military posts have been handed over to the native constabu- lary.
 General Chaffee has taken effective steps to make sure that there will be no friction between the military and civil authorities. The most positive orders have been issued to all military commanders to cooperate in every way with the civil authorities without relaxing it's severity when it has occasion to deal with active insurgents.

The baseball season will probably com mence April 24 and last until September IS. Such are the present plans of the local managers, but they do not know who will be the first team played. The ball park at West End Is being improved in every way possible. The grand stand and bleacna-g gre being repaired and the diamond and outfleld are receiving kind treatment.
 The Cleveland American League team will play two games in Birmingham against the local team on April 14-15. It will practice in New Orleans from March 2s to April 1s
 It is uncertain whether Fred Abbott will play with New Orleans or Cincin- natl this season. The latter is very anxious to sign him.
 New Orleans has signed a pitcher Bradford who played with the Cana dian and Interstate League last year. There is also talk of Canadian catcher, Williams, for the Crescent City team, who caught Bradford last year.

TUG COLLIDES
 WITH FERRY BOAT
THERE WERE 500 PASSENGERS ON THE FERRY BOAT, 100 OF WHOM WERE WOMEN-TWELVE OF THEM PAINTED.

New York, January 30-The Jersey Central Railroad ferryboat Central was run into by a railroad tug in the North river during a snowstorm today. There were 800 passengers on the ferryboat, of whom about 100 were women.
 The Central found it very heavy going in the storm and was feeling her way slowly out in midstream. When about a quarter of a mile out of her slip at Cum munipaw the ferry crashed into one of the heavy tugs of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, having in tow float carrying a dozen loaded freight cars Before the Gen. tral could reverse her power the tug had forged Its way through the light wood work that covers the ladies cabin, and the women inside were panic-stricken.
 Their shrieks, combined with the cracking sound of the breaking timbers. quickly brought a number of the men passengers over to their side of the boat. The men rushed over so quickly that the Central careened, and 1t was feared for a second that she would turn over. The Central's running gear was not damaged however, and she soon righted herself and proceeded to her New York slip. Twelve of the women passengers tainted during the excitement, but they were soon revived. No one was badly hurt.
 The snow, which began falling here yes- terday morning, continued through the night and day. At g o'clock this morning ha tofa al folI fc,,r fooh a heavy snow badly delays traffic in this city, but as the storm began in daylight the elevated and surface roads were able to keep their tracks clear and practically all lines were running on schedule time. It was very thick on the bay, however, and the ships in the harbor moved very slowly.
