euEvERRA WILL SURRENDER.
United States Officers Have Agreed to
 an Armistice.

Manila, March 1s.-General Lukeban's efforts in influencing Gueverra, who re- gently issued proclamation declaring himself the successor of General Lukeban, in the island of Samar, to surrender have been successful.
 Both General Smith, in command Of the limited States forces in the island or Sa- mar. and Gueverra have agreed to an armistice to facilitate the collection Of Gueyerra's men with their rifles, when the formal surrender will be made The arms will be paid in at the fort
 General Smith cables that Gueverra has 4OO rifles. and that Gueverra guaranteed the absolute peacefulness of his men.
 General Chaffee is greatly pleased with what he considers as closing the active insurrection. The resistance in Batangas and Laguna provinces practically is over. There are daily surrenders there of men and guns. The insurgents have been com pleteIy starved into submission by Gen eral Bells aggressive tactics in prevent ing any exterior assistance from reach ing them.
 Some surprise is expressed at the num- her of rifles to be turned in by the men under Gueverra, as it was thought there were but 200 in Samar.

 That which took place between the royal brothers is, of course, not matter con cerning which those surrounding Elm peror William and Prince Henry have been taken into the royal confidence fur ther than to know that the brothers had talk today lasting several hours and that Prince Henry told Emperor William his experiences from the beginning to the end of his trip.
 The members of the Princes party were much amused while on their travels at the calls for Speech, speech" from the crowds collected at wayside places and the cries of "how's your brother Will liam?'
 The only occasion when the least alarm for the Princes safety was felt was when a member of the party saw a man enter the Princes car at one end while Prince Henry was on the pratform at the other end lowing to the crowd. This man was ordered out of the car. He hesitated and then withdrew A few minutes later he was seen working his way through the crowd in order to get nearer the Prince. This man wore a long coat under which anything might have been concealed. A this person to John E. Wilkie, chief of

 When did you first hear Mr. Patrick'i name mentioned in any of the papers yol tvitnessed?" ," asked MT. Osborne.
 'tI think be first time was on Septcmbe, M. when witnessed the assignment"
 At his examination before Justice Je- rome Short said he heard Patrick's name mentioned in connection with the general assignment on September 2.
 1t was Short who presented the Albert Patrick check for $25,000 to Swenson' s bank for certihcation. He did not know Rice was dead at that tine. He did not hear the Cashier Swenson say he did not Nike the appearance of the check.
 Assistant District Attorney Osborne then called David L. Short and Morris Meyer in rebuttaL He asked them several questions relative to the kind of ink used by them in signing the will, the style of pen, how many times Rice had dipped his pen in the ink. etc. The witnesses were unable to give Mir. Osborne any definite information both saying they had not paid any attention to these facts.
 David l.. Carvalho was then called as an expert to tell about the ink used on the disputed singatures. He said the sig natures to the 1900 will were written in an ink the foundation of which was a by product of coal tar. The conceded sigma lures. he said were written with iron ink.

 Emperor William received a wireless telegraph message at o'clock yesterday afternoon at Cuxhaven, from which 1t seemed the Deutschland was 90 miles away while as a matter of fact she was only 20 miles distant. The Emperor and his staff then sat down to dine, believ- ing they had sufficient time before the arrival of the steamer. About halfway through the menu news was brought that the Deutschland was sighted. Emperor William then stopped the dinner and hurried to the quay. Here he had a long wait until the steamer docked.
 Emperor William spoke to Commander William E. Beehler. the United States na- val attache at Berlin who represented the American embassy at Cuxhaven, yes terday of the wonderful reception Prince Henry received in the United States.

TAXES FOR PHILIPPINES.
Duties Collected There Go Into Treas
 ury of the Islands.

Washington. March 19.-Secretary Root has notified Acting Governor Wright that taxes and duties collected in the Philippines under the recent tariff act for the islands shall be covered directly into the Philippine treasury and are subject to the orders of the Philippine authorities.
 Nothing has as yet been determined upon with respect to the handling and transfer of the duties and taxes collect ed in the United States on articles inn ported from the islands. The law pro- vides that all these taxes and duties are to be paid into the Philippine treasury for the use and benefit of the islands.
 There will be appointed a joint commit tee to formulate regulations governing the customs authorities in their treat ment of Philippine articles exempt from export duty and admitted to the United States duty free for use and consumption therein. Judge Magoon the chief law off, cer of the insular division, will represent the war department on the commission.

St. Petersburg, March 19.-The Official Messenger tomorrow will print the text of a Russo French conjoint declaration, sent March 16 to the Austrian, Belgian. British, American. German, Italian, Dutch, Chinese and Japanese govern ments. The declaration is as follows:

EVIDENCE ALL
 CIRCUMST INITIAL Lawyers Make Strong Plea to
 Asquit Wilcox

Elizabeth City N. C., March 19.-The court house was crowded today during the argument in the Cropsey murder trial Many women were present. Three lawyers were heard today and the closing speeches will be made tomorrow by Solic itor Ward for the state and D. r. Aydlett for the defense. The case will probably go to the jury on Friday.
 w. J. Leary concluded his speech today in behalf of the defense. He asserted that Nellie Cropsey committed suicide. He said Wilcox in no way could be connected with the death of the young woman.
 J. F. Heywood Sawyer followed for the state He reviewed the evidence tend ing to show that the girl had not drowned herself and asserted her death was due to a blow.
 w. M. Bond of Adenton followed MT. Sawyer He spoke for the derense. Among other things he said;
 "There are only two questions In this case. Was the girl killed, if so. who killed her? Is the evidence sufficient to convict the prisoner? I say that 1t is not; there was nothing certain or positive about what the doctors said. Dr. Fearing went to work on the case with distorted Judgment. He believed that Wilcox had done the girl whatever wrong had been done. This is shown by the fact that he left the body after the first ex-nination without having found a single mark of violence.
 ''Dr. Wood said that the absence of any symptoms of drowning could not be taken as positive evidence Dr. Lumsden swore that he could not give expert testimony In a case where person had been dead thirty-seven days and the body buried in the water. There is nothing positive in the evidence. It Is all circumstantlal
