Manila, Fob. 14. Particulars of
tho capture of Iloilo by tho United
States forces under Brigadier General
MUlor on Saturday lat has been re-
ceived here. On tho morning of Fr i-
day, February 10, General Miller sent
an ultimatum to the commander of the
rebels on shore, notifying him that it
wits his intention to take Hollo, bv
force, if necessary. Noncorubatants
foreigners were warned to leave
the town within twenty four hours,
Tho rebels were also vr rned that they
must uaak-j no belligerent prepira-
tions. The gunboat I'etrel was then
moved to a position close inshore and
near the rebel fort, while the cruiser
Boston took up its station at tho other
end of tho town
Friday pissed quietly. During the
dav manv refugees left the town of
Iloilo. The majority of them were
taken on board foreign ships lying in
the harbor. Searchlights from the
United States war ships were all night
long illuminating the town aod its de
fenses. The rebels, bo far as the look-
outa on the ships could discover, re
mained Quiescent throughout the
night
A 3 o'clock on the morning of Satur
day, February 11, the gunboat Petrel
signaled to tbe cruiser Boston that the
rebels were working in their tranche?.
In return the Petrel was ordered to
fire warning shots upon the town from
its three pounders. This was done
and the rebels replied with a harmless
fusillader The Boston and Petrel
then bombarded the rebel trenches,
completely clearing them of their oc
cupants in a very 9hort space of time.
Soon after the bombardment began
flames broke out simultaneously in
various parts of the town. Thereupon
forty-eight marines, acting as infant ry,
and artillery we landed Irom Vhe
cruiser lioston, ana a company was
sent ashore frcm the gunboat Petrel.
These detachments marched straight
into the town of Iloilo, and, hoisting
the stars and stripes over the fort, took
possession of the place in the nnmiof
tbe United States.
Consulates Are Sayed,
The capture of the town and its de
fenses having been accomplished, the
marines and soldiers who had been
sent ashore proceedad to the task of
savin? the American, Jiingiisn nnu
German consulles from destruction by
lhe fire which was raging among the
fpaii an(j inflammable buildings of the
town. The Swiss consul s residence,
which was in the same row with the
consulates named, was burned. Tbe
entire Chinese and native sections of
the town were destroyed, tut foreign
mercantile property escaped with
slight damage.
There was soma desultory firing by
the enemy in the outskirts of Iloilo,
but not a single American was injured.
Miller's force was in complete control
of the situation when tho gunboat
Petrel sailed from Iloilo for Manila.
The Sixth Tnited States artillery regi
ment occupied a position commanding
both bridges leading into the town.
and tbe Tennessee volunteers and the
Eighteenth United States infantry
were occupying the trenches that had
been constructed bv the rebels.

Itlesslng: for Flat Dweller.
An artificial stone has been invented
that is a nonconductor of heat, cold
and noise. It is especially intended for
roofs and floors, says an exchange.
The fact that a floor can be laid in
flat that will prove a nonconductor
of sound should certainly fall like a
benediction on the ears of those who
dwell In apartments and have been
made unwilling participants of all
the sorrows and joys of their near
neighbors. This so-called stone is
made of purified paper pulp mixed
with various other ingredients to
harden it. Papyristile is the name of
this thrice welcome invention, and Mr.
Gehre, a civil ongine-er of Zurich, is
the blessed inventor. The preparation
is as hard as stone, but much lighter
in weight. It is noiseless and inex
pensive. B. Presson, Proson ville, Kans.,
