Brussels, April O-(Midnight. AT a
Socialist meeting held in front of the
Maison Du Peuple this evening, the
Socialist Deputies Defenit and Delbartee
advised the workmen present to be pre-

windows of churches and cafes, firing re-
volvers and singing revolutionary songs
There were several collisions with the
police and the civic guards who were for
ced to use their bayonets and the butts
of their rifles on the rioters. Several
of the latter were injured and others
were arrested, but on the whole, the

yesterday.
Every window in the residence of Sem
at0r Count Demerode has been smashed
Rioting has also occurred at Client and

eral strike have been held.

the people of South Carolina on his re-
turn journey to Washington. AT

Although no stop was made at Orange
burg fully one thousand people lined the
railroad tracks and endeavored to catch
a glimpse of him. A multitude gathered
at the depot at Columbia as the train
pulled in, wild cheer went up and i'm
mediately there was a rush for the Pres

the report of Major Gardiner and that
there should be complete investisa-
ton. There is also cable message
dated April 2, in which General Chaffee
is directed to make the investigation
with all speed consistent with thor
ough investigation.
General Macarthur was again the wit
ness before the committee today and
he began his statement with reference
to the burning of villages by the ma
tive forces in 1899. He said that the
order for this destruction had been is
sued by General Luna, and that he found
that this was due to the fact that Luna
had been student of Napoleons con-
gress VINO bad conceived the idea that
he could compel the American forces TO
retreat as the Russians had forced the
French conqueror to retreat from Mos
COW. In this connection General Mac
Arthur read number of orders issued
by himself, directing the conduct of
troops in the fields and enjoinipg the
utmost kindness in the treatment of
captured and wounded members of the
enemy's forces. Inc one of those orders
the American forces were instructed to
kill, if possible, the enemy found fight
ing and with arms in his hand, and in
reply to questions General Macarthur
said that in war the prime object is to
disable the enemy and to kill him if
possible when in battle.
Speaking of the educated FiliponOs,
General Macarthur said that many of
them were men of good character and
generally showed ability. Among
others of whom he spoke was Mabini
who, he said. had a dream of Poly
nosian confederacy-''an able man, hut
dreamer and unfortunately paralized,"
he added:
Patterson.
I'm GUAM" laconically responded the
witness.
How did he get there?"
81 sent him, because he was an agi-
tator."
Then followed long colloquy in which
General Macarthur explained that after
he had released Mahini he continued his
agitation.
Ills agitation in support of Philip
pine independence? suggested Senator
Patterson.
His agitation in support of the in
surrection," insisted Genera! MacAr-
thur.
The statement was made at today's
session that next week number of en-
listed men would be heard as to the
practice of the water cure in the Philip
pines and that soon afterward Admiral
Dewey and General Anderson would be
requested to testify.

FOUR HUNDRED MEN THROWN
OUR OF WORK By A GREAT FIRE
Blocks Consumed. Damage Estimated
at a Quarter Of Million.
(By the Associated Press.)

Columbus, Ga, April 10.-Early to-
the Southern Plow Works and by II
o'clock two entire blocks were in ashes
and another building, q warehouse, was
burning rapidly. The loss to the two
blocks burned is estimated at over $780,
600 ard the damage to the warehouse
viii! run the amount UP to a quarter of
a million.
BY IL: 30 p. m the fire was under con-
troll. The origin of the fire is unknown
The flames were first discovered in a
corner of the pillow shop, corner of Front
and Dillingham; streets, and it spread
rapidly southwark, sweeping everything
in the pillow company's shop and the ma
chine and forging departments of the
Columbus Iron Works, which, occupied
the same building, both taking up the
entire block When the fire reached the
middle of the plant supply of varnish
and oils ignited and added fury to the
flames. The offices of the pillow company
and iron works were next destroyed and
the fire leaped to the middle Of Ninth
street, consuming the trestle work of
tue MODlle dHu ftdilTOaQ lTOlIi
Front street to the river a distance of
nearly two blocks. This cut off the in
coming Mobile and Girard train and
passengers could only reach the city by
transfers.
From the bridge the fire caught the
South block, which was occupied by the
Iron Works pattern shops, wood working
plant, moulding shop, lumber yard and
boiler houses, burning everything in the
plant down to Eighth street, except the
new moulding house recently finished,
it being the only building left standing
in the two blocks.
On the west side of Front street from
Ninth down to Eighth street there were
eight frame cottages burned, valued at
$4,000. The Empire Mills Copper shop, on
the corner of this block was destroyed.
About the time the fire was under con-
troll Friedlander's hide and junk ware
house on the corner of Broad and Dill
| lngham street, caught, and before the
firemen could conquer it, it also was
gone with its contents. Hard work and
thick fire wall prevented the spread to
the Webster warehouse next door.
The destruction of the Columbus Iron
Works and Southern Plow Company
Works will throw about 400 men out of
employment.

from an American periodic2t to- which
the editor of Freedom agreed lie also
added remarks of his own, censuflrS the
United States Commissions rule, and
saying that when it started IL July last
every paper in the city upheld il, since
which they had all dropped By the way
side, as they would not support arbitrary
government especially when evidences
of carpet bagging and rumors of graft
were too thick to be pleasant" The
main charges made were that in many
cases the Filipino officeholders are ras-
Gals, and that the commission has ex-
allied to the highest positions Filipinos
who are VIGOROUSLY corrupt.
The editors of the Volcano have also
been arrested on suit of the govern
ment for demanding the removal OF the
Judge who recently tried Senior Valdez
(the editor of a local Spanish paper, who
was fined 1000 pesetas for libelling two
Filipino members of the commission),
and who is now trying the editor of Free
dom under the sedition law.
These proceedings have aroused the
entire press of Manila, and it's represen-
tatives met today and resolved to send
a committee to the commissioners to
argue against the injustice of the pro-
ceedngs. The meeting also determined
to send cable message to President
Roosevelt, urging him to take steps to
prevent the commission from using the
sedition law, in such cases, to prove
lese majestic against editors. The meet
ing. which was enthusiastic, was also
largely attended by lawyers, doctors and

Norfolk, We, April 10.-Two new cases
OF smallpox were discovered by the health
authorities today. The public are greatly
incensed because of the fact. that up to
this time the health board have failed
to open Craney Island, the place set apart
for the treatment of contagious diseases.
The reason assigned by Health Commits
sioner Newbill for failing to open the is
land is that it costs about 81, 900 per
month, whereas the cost of operating the
pest house is only a little over 500 per
month.
