SCOOTS FIRED UPON. Volunteers On Reconnolterfng Mis sion Attacked From Trenches. CompunlN From Minnesota anil Oregon Regiments Make Ip the Kxplorlog Party Major LHgglea of Minnesotana Is Wounded la the Head Trouble Among Filipinos. MANILA, May 9. S:2o p. ru. A re- conooiteriog party from Major Gen eral Lawion's command, and which consisted of two companies of the Min nesota regiment and two companies of the Oregon regiment under com mand of Major Digeles of the Minne sota regiment, advanced yesterday to a point near San Miguel, which is about twelve mil3S north of Balinag. There the Americans were met with a volley from a force of rebels behind a trench. Major Diggles was wcunded in the head and, with a private and ten typhoid patients, was brought by special train to Manila today. The Don Jose, the last of the miss ing steamers under the American flag. which were detained by the insur gents since the beginning of the war, was found by the gunboat Manila at Batangas and arrived here today. Trouble Among the Filipinos. New Yokk, May 9. A dispatch to the Journal and Advertiser from Ma nila says: Only the entreaties of Ag- uinaldo averted last Tuesday a civil war between the forces of his two rival generals, Luna and Mascardo. They were actually drawn up in bat tie array. This and a positive con firmation of tho news that Luna has been dangerously wounded in the shoulder in tho battle ot San Toinas are the most important items of intelligence brought today by the army gunboats Iviguna do Hay and Cavadonga, which returned today from a brik expedition up the S in Fernando river. It was immediately before the battle of Fan Tomas that the insurgents so nearly arrived at the point of begin ning to exterminate one another. Gen eral Luna, when he saw that an en gagement with tho American troops was inevitable, sent back an aide post haste to IJacolor, where (ieneral Mas cardo was, demanding reinforcements. Mascardo's reply was that ho would take orders from no one but Aguin aldo. This defiance so infuriated Luna that, in spite of the impending con flict with the common enemy, ho took 1,500 of his soldiery and made a forced ma-eh to 5acolor, intent on chastising his comrade-in-arms. Mascardo was nothing loth to fight it out and or dered his command into lino of battle. Shouts of hatred and defiance were heard on both sides. Outside the op posing forces tho insurgent c.-imp was all confusion. Aguinaldo, terrified by the situation, ordered his chief-of-stafT. Colonel Ar guelles, to make peace at all hazards. The soldiers loaded their pieces and were waiting for orders to begin the j onslaught when Arguelles galloped between the Hues, frantically waiving a flag of truce. There was an ansry conference between him and the rival generals. Aguiaaldo was drawn into it. With all the intensity ut his com mand he begged Luna and Mascardo not to plunge the Philippine forces into civil strife at a time when they were already broken up and demoral by successive defeats at tho bauds of the Americans. His entreaties prevailed for the time being. Luna foon returned to the front after the commanding ceneral had promised him reinforcements, and ordered Mascardo court-martialed for not having sent them at first. The battle of San Tomas followed and Luna, on whose ferocity in the field Aguinaldo placed his chief reli ance, received wounds that will dis able him for the rest of the campaign and may cause his death.

That Appears to Be the Expression of the Filipino Congress. Urlef Session of the Body Said to Have Advised Capitulation Macabebes are Very Eager to Fight Tagals Other Telegraphic News of Importance. Manila, May 10.-7:20 p. m. Re ports received from the insurgent line, which, however, have not been con firmed, say that a meeting of the Fili pino congress has been held at San Pedro. There was no quorum present, but in spite of this fact some business was transacted. The reports add that although those who attended were mostly partisans of Aguina'do,astrong desire for peace was expressed. Major General MacArthur will prob ably remain at San Fernando until fresh troops can bo forwarded to him from this city to replace some of the volunteers, who have become ex hausted from tho long campaign.

The United States Philippine com mission has been considering a provis ional constitution for the island of Negros, which was framed by Colonel Smith and leiding natives. It is largely modeled after tho constitution of California. This constitution, is in tended, will give tho natives self-government, co-operating with the mili tary regime. Work on tho constitu tion has been apportioned to tho sev eral members of the Philippine com mission. The report of President Schurmann will give special attention to national, provincial and municipal government; Colonel Charles Den by will consider the organization of courts and Prof. D. C.

The army "tinclad'' gun boats Laguna de I.y and Cavedonga, under command of Captain !rant, steamed up the Kio Grande to Ca'.ura pit today, clearing tho er.tire country of rebels from the nay upward. When the vessels reached Macabebe about 1,000 of the inhabitants of the place assembled upon the banks of the river, cheering tho expedition lustily. C iptain Grant was given au ovation when ho went ashore. Many of the Macabebes expressed themselves a bing anxious to en'er tho service of the American army for the campaign against the Tagils.

Tiio Filipino army cf General Mascardo, inspired by wine taken from the storehouses of IJacolor and by the eeneral's oratory, on Mon day evening, attacked San Fernnudo. There was tremendous yelling and a great t-xpenditure of cartridges by the rebels, but very little result. General Mascardo holds the outskirts of Bg color west of tho railroad In f;ont of his positions are tho Kansas and Mon tana regiments, which occupy trenches that the Filipinos built in anticipation of an attack from the direction of tho sea. Mascardo Harangues Troops. During the afternoon of Monday General Mascardo, with a lirgo re tinue of officers, rode along tho li'ies, frequently stopping to harangue his warriors. At duk a detachment of rebels rushed toward the outpo.-ts of tho Montana regiment, but were met by a hot fire from tho Montana line. Tho insurgents, from trenches nearly three miles long, responded. After an hour's til ing, during which one private solder of tho Montana regi ment was wounded, the insurgents sub sided, although they kept up a sc. it tcring fire throughout the niirht. Prisoners who wcro brought into tho American lines said that (ieneral Mas cardo distributed barrels of wine among his soldiors, telling them that he expected to capture the city of San Fernando. The trenches undoubtedly saved the Americans from heavy loss, the bullets falling thick about them during tho engagement. Geueral Luna is ms-?ing his army east of the railway, bringing up troops by trainloads in sight of tho American lines. The country between San Fer nando and Calumpil is filling up with natives, who profess great friendship towards the Americans, but who are suspected by many of sympathy with the insurrection.

REPORT OF CHICAGO Al ARRETS. Chicago, May 11. The m rket opened very weak in regard to wheat. The government report which was given out yeslei day afternoon showed only a slight decrease in tho condition of the growing crops and the increased acreage was responsible for the weak ness. The initial sales showed a de cline of nearly a cent, at which the country bought very freely, which," to gether with the taking of profits by shorts, gave the market enough sup port so that tho closing last night was reached. :md for a timo the price hovered around 2c, which was the lop figure for tno day. Corn also made a gain of a cent and a small frac tion, September wheat going from 331 to "Al(ni, while July wheat ranged from 8-i to 34. When tho country had gotten fairly loaded up with wheat, Koene Bros, of Now York and the southwest began to dump upon the market millions of long wheat, break ing New York, St. Louis and the northwest markets very materially, while this market suffered severely as well, July wneat going at a rapid puce from 72e to (!tje, and recov ering very little, closing at 70c. Corn suffered in sympathy with wheat, going from 3Ai(o ha to S.'lifVt Se when it closed. Tho entire settlement of the strike was an element of weakness also. At tho opening the Liverpool cables .vera weak ar.d lowered in sympathy with our cash wheat, which was 71c, and ihe first cable was lower.

The doctors are wholly unable to get rid of this vile poison, and only attempt to heal up the outward appearance of the disease the sores and eruptions. This they do by driving the poison into the system, and endeavor to keep it shut in with their constant doses of potash and mercury. The mouth and throat and other delicate parts then break out into sores, and the fight is continued indefinitely, the drugs doing the system more damage than the disease itself. Mr. II. L. Myers, 100 Mulberry St., Newark, N J., says: "I had spent a hundred dollars with the doctors, when 1 realized that they could do me no good. I had large spots all over my bedy, and these soon broke out into running sores, and I endured all the suffering which this vile disease pro duces. I decided to try S. S. S. as a last resort, and was soon greatly improved. I followed closely your 'Direc tions for Self-Treatment,' and the large splotches on my chest began to grow paler and smaller, and before long disappeared entirely. I was soon cured perfectly and my skin has been as clear as glass ever since. I cured my self at home, after the doctors had failed completely." It is valuable time thrown away to expect the doctors to cure Contagious Blood Poison, for the disease is be yond their skill. Swifts Specific S. S. S. FOR THE BLOOD acts in an entirely different way from potash and mercury it forces the poison out of the system and gets rid of it entirely.
