MOVING UNDER GREAT DIFFICULTIES Ceamand Divided In Hope ol Surround ing i’lo Dal I’llar’* Force*—One of tho Meat Oallaut Charge* of the War I* Made by American*—Four Are Killer And Fifteen Wounded. MANILA, June 5.—General Hall's column in the movement upon the Mo rong peninsula, completed a circuit of twenty miles over rough and moun tainous country, having two engage ments with the Insurgents, one of them severe, and keeping up an almost con stant Are against scattered bands of rebels for nearly twenty-four hours trom 4 o’clock Saturday morning, when the column left the pumping station. The Filipinos were driven in every direction and the country through which General Hall passed was pretty thoroughly cleared. At 10 o’clock this morning the column reached a point a few miles from Tay Tay, where General Hall was met by General Lawton, who had already en tered the town and found It deserted. General Hall’s objective point was An tipolo, ten miles off, and there was desultory firing all along the line of march. The gunboats could be heard ■helling the hills In advance of the column. The column, after driving the rebels from the foothills near Maraqulno about noon yesterday, with a loss of but two or three slightly wounded, proceeded with all possible haste to ward Laguna de Hay, the Fourth cav alry In the leud, the Oregon regiment next and the Fourtn Infantry last. At 6 o’clock these three regiments fought their second battle of the day and It resulted like the first in the complete rout of a large Filipino force located In the mountains and having every advantage of position. The American loss was four killed, iaree wounded of the Fourth cavalry and one Oregonian, and about fifteen wounded. Thp Filipino loss could not be ascertained, but the terrible fire the Americans poured into them for half an hour must have Inflicted severe pun ishment. In this engagement our troops made one of the most gallant charges of the war and the enemy was forced to flee in the greatest dis order. It was tnp intention to prpsa on to Antipolo last night, hut this was found imposslhlp, owing to the two fights and the constant marching for more than twelve hours, with nothing to an- since morning and no supply train In sight. The troops, moreover, suf fered from the Intense heat, many be ing prostrated and all greatly exhaust ed. consequently they bivouacked for the night on the second battlefield. The cavalry, the Oregonians and two companies of the Fourth infantry had just crossed a small creek about 5 o’clock yesterday afternoon and en tered upon a sunken road, from which they were emerging upon a small val ley surrounded on all aides by high and heavily-wooded hills, when the rebels, concealed In the mountains on the three sides of the plain, opened a not fire and sent showers of bullets into the ranks of the Americans. The latter deployed immediately in three directions. Then followed a charge across the rice fields and ditches and up the hill sides, from which the shots c?.me r.ll the time pouring in a terrific hail, while the air resounded with the con stant rattle of musketry. The Fourth cavalry, being in front, suffered the severest loss when the at tack opened, two of their killed be ing sergeants and the other a private. The Oregonian killed was a private. The natives were unable to stand the vigorous firing of the Americans long and at he first sign of their wa vering the cavalry. Oregonians and the Fourth infantrymen broke Into wild cheers and charged still faster up the hillsides, pouring in volley after vol ley until the men left the places where they were nartially concealed by the thicket, fled over the summit In the wildest confusion and disappeared in the surrounding valleys. After the fight was over the firing was continued by the Americans for more than an hour in clearing out the bush and in driving away straggling Filipinos. The troops, after ramping for the night on the battleflpld. started at 5 o’clock this morning for Antipolo, where it was expected a strong resis tance would be made. Antipolo is a place far up in the mountains which the Spaniards had said the Americans could never rupture. It hus cost Spian the lives of 300 troops. The progress of the column was con siderably delayed while passing up the steep mountain grade by a small band of Insurgents, hut these were ef fectually routed by the Fourth cavalry, which wan in advauce, and the troops reached Antipolo in a few houra. Our lines were Immediately thrown around on three sides of the town and then the final advance was made Hut It waa found unneveaaary to lire a shot. Not a rebel waa visible and the town was entirely abandoned. Two houra later, after a conference between Oeneral !<awton and Oeneral Hall, the cohimu proceeded toward Morong to drive away any rebels found in that quarter. Whew the atari was made for Anti polo In the morning the Oregon regl- , men! and the nth Infantry were left be hind as a r>*ar sosrd sad there was considerable firing along their Hues in Hearing the enemy from the high hill between their position and the lake. • »■«> fi.i saeOuge SANTIAGO 1 *IC FIMA.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., June 5.—(Spec ial to the Omaha Bee:)—Three of the men who dynamited and robbed the Union Pacific mail train at Wilcox station Friday morning have been lo cated and it Is believed will be cap tured tonight. Their trail was followed by a posse under Officer Wheeler of the Union Pa cific detective force from the scene of the holdup for a distance of forty miles across the Laramie plains to a point about twenty miles south of Glen Rock, where it was lost. This posse and one from Rawlins reached Casper this morning and got fresh horses. While there a sheep herder came In and reported having run across the three robbers, who were cooking breakfast In a ravine about six miles west of Casper. One of the robbers held him up with a Winchester and ordered him to leave. A posse was at once formed by the sherifT of Natrona and Converse coun ties and pursuit commenced. They are not more ,han three hours behind the outlaws, whose capture is ue lleved to be certain. The outlaws were evidently heading for the “Hole-ln-the-Wall” country, a rendezvous for desperadoes about sixty miles north of Casper. To reach this refuge they will have to cross the North Platte river, which Is so swollen with flood waters that it can only be crossed by bridge. All the bridges are guarded, so that the escape of tba fugitives is cut off. On receipt of information from Cas per thut three of the train robbers had been seen in that vicinity today Gen eral Mannger Dickinson and Superin* tendant Harris of the Union Pacific and Manager Gentsch of the Pacific Express company started from here by special train for Casper to direct the pursuit of the robbers- Later in formation from Casper states that the robbers have reached the north side of the Platte river and are making for the Hole-ln-the-Wall' country. They have plenty of friends there and ww. be able to make a strong nght against the officers. DENVER, Colo., June 5.—A special to the News from Cheyenne, Wyo., says: A report from Union Pacific sources Is to the effect that the Albany county sheriffs posse has captured three oi the Union Pacific train robbers six miles from Casper, Wyo., and that one of them has made a confession. The rest of the gang Is being pursued in the direction of Glen Rock. AN ASSAULT ON LOUBtT. I*r#*Hldent of France In tlio Object of a Ifnfttile I>« mountratlou. PARIS, June 5.—President Loubet, accompanied by the premier, M. I)u puy, and the chief of the military household, General McBailloud. drove to the Auteuil races this afternoon, closely followed by Madame Loubet in a second landau. As they drove along the Avenue Des Champs Elysses the crowd bowed respectfully, but ar riving at Auteuil, they were met by a violent demonstration, evidently or ganized and directed against the pres ident. There was a storm of hoots and veils and cries of “Panama." “Abas Loubet" and “Vive L’Armee." A few shouts of “Vive Loubet" were drowned in the clamor. A strong force of po lice kept order and arrested many of the disturbers, induring a man who tried to force his way to the presi dent's carriage. During the second race the clamor increased to violence and was plainly directed by ac om mittee of the League cf Patriots col lected with their supporters both be fore and behind the presidential stand. During the grand steeplechase many blows were struck and several police men were injured in their endeavors to prevent an invasion of the presi dential stand. At the crisis of the excitement, while shouts of “Vive L'Armee" and “Vive Deroulede” were heard on all sides Comte Christian! rushed toward the president, brandishing a stick and di rected a blow against him. striking his hat. The crowd rushed upon Christian!, who only escaped severe handling by being taken under police protection President Loubet remained all the while quite unmoved, talktng to the premier, while the officers of his military household were defending him against violence. Finally, after thirty arrests had been made, the prefect of police or dered the Republican guards to sur round the presidential stand. The main demonstrations were Jose Lasiea, deputy for Oers. and M. Firm In Fan re, anti-Semite and nationalist, deputy for Oran, Algeria. Police Inspector Grilllerle had his head seriously wounded in the melee and President Loubet has since decor ated him with the cross of the Legion of Honor. On returning to the Elysses palace M. I -outlet received many sympathiz ing caller* It seems certain that the demonstration was organized by the Juenneaaee royalists, the Llgues dea Patriot** and the anti-Semite*, the rallying sign being a carnation in the buttonhole.

" THREATEN TO DEFY COMMISSION — Declare They Will Tight Tntll Titerroln ateil Before They Bill Keeognl/.e Tanu King—Opinion Matlin Must Be Dl» armed. APIA, Samoa, May 19.—(Via San Francisco, June 5.—When Admiral Kautz issued his proclamation of April 23, directing Mataafa and his following to keep beyond certain deflnited limits around Apia, the prescribed district covering an area twelve miles long and six miles broad, followed by a notifica tion to Mataafa thai unless the rebels were outside the prescribed limits in twenty-four hours flte would be opened upon them wherever they could be reached, this ultimatum brought about an immediate and unconditional com pliance with the admiral’s directions. From that time up to date there has been no conflict wltn the rebels. Cap tain Sturdee of her majesty's ship Porpoise,accompanied by Rev. William Huckeit of the London Mission society, as interpreter, went to the rebel camp at Falena on a visit the day following, and in order to avoid mistakes In the future went over the boundary Hue with several Mataafa chiefs, who promised to keep the peace until the commission had had time to act. The district which the rebels have evacu ated Is quite large enough to supply food to the Malletoans in Apia and thus one of the great difficulties of the nuval authorities has been overcome. Since the rebels went to Falena a strong patrol of 700 or 800 men dally makes the round, seeing that all Is quiet and that no looting or damage Is being done by the Malietoa follow ers. Several cases of looting have been reported, and where It has been pos sible to find out the offenders they have been punished. The damage caused by the .rlendlles has, however, been very small in comparison with that caused by the Mataafans, not one-twentieth part. The large fort at Lotopla has been destroyed by the Malletoans and It is reported that Mataafa is highly enraged at this, claiming that In the event of his wishing to return to the same after the commission nas made known Its decision he ought to have been allowed to do so. In the meantime he Is building form Inland at the town of Falena and his followers stoutly de clare that even if the commission is unanimous against him he will never acknowledge Tanu as king and will fight It out to the bitter end. "These assertions may be only talk, but as far as we can judge here the question of the kingship does not seem to lie within the scope of the commis sion. Tanu has been publicly crowned by the American authorities here and has oeen saluted with royal honors by both the Philadelphia and Tauranga on the occasion of his coronation and of his formal visit at the war ships since the armistice has been in force. His chiefs and l’amaspse, the vice king, are carrying on the government in a way that performs all the functions of a good and Btable government and they are in possession. Tanu is king de facto as well as de Jure—and, in addition, there are now in Apia 3,500 made adults carrying 2,700 rifles sup porting him. This means that abso lutely half of Apia is at present sup porting the king. Mataafa is likely to be a disappointed man, and although a persona] friend of his, who had an interview with him a few days ago, says that Mataafa is preparing to ac cept the inevitable at the hands of a unanimous commission, he will never submit to a minority, even though that minority he the two greatest nations on the earth. This appears farcial, no doubt, to most people, hut serious In deed to the few white residents of these islands.” In the meantime the rebels are strengthening their positions, sending out messengers for their sympathizers to come to Join them and are busily engaged in manufacturing cartridges. Deserters from the Mataafa camp say that on the occasion of the Falke Inst visiting Saluafata that some of the rebel chiefs went off to the ship and asked for a supply of ammunition, but that the same was refused, to their great disgust. The loyalists, on the other hand, are fortifying their in trene.iments around Apia and are being daily drilled and instructed by officers from the different war ships. A four inch gun had been taken from H. M. S. Torch and Is now mounted at Mullum In such a poaitlon as to eommand the whole of the western portion of the municipality. The great question Is, ‘‘Will the commission order the dis armament of the nativea?” If It does not It Is the opinion of almost every white resident that these Islands wilt no longer be safe to live In. and many declare that If the natives are to retain i their rlllea, never mind what other so lutlon of the Samoan question Is made, ■ they cannot and will not live here with their wives, families and property at the mercy of the nest lot of rebels. %r# RAN KHANtTSFO.

Text of the Tlatform Adopted at Their I-ate ( onvfiitiou. COLUMBUS, 0., June 5.—Following is the platform adopted by the Ohio republicans at their convention in this city: We earnestly endorse the great ad ministration of William McKinley. It is distinguished to a remarkable de gree in the history of national admin istrations. I'nder the last democratic administration, and as a result of dem ocratic principles ami policy, our in dustries were destroyed, capital and labor unemployed, the poor suffered as never before in our history, agricul tural products could not be sold be cause consumers could not earn money with which to buy, and every branch of trade felt the blighting influence of democratic tariff reform; the gold re serve disappeared; the government borrowed money to pay current ex penses, Increasing the public debt In times of peace hundreds of millions of dollars. The democratic party pro posed to the people as a remedy fox all tiiese democratic ills depredated, dishonest currency, which Intensified every evil. During all that period of depression and distress the republican party stood fast .or the principles and policies under which American Indus tries were built up and flourished be yond example; the principles and poli cies under which the people prospered and the nation had grown for genera tions; stood fast for sound, honest currency, and in 18% elected to the presidency William McKinley, the beat exponent of republicanism and true American Ideas and policies; the friend of every American Industry; the wise, patriotic defender and advocate of honest oney. I'nder his splendid re publican administration public credit was restored, the prosperity of the peo ple developed, our commerce lias grown great, our trade, domestic and foreign, has increased to a degree never before known, and the people are looking with confidence for greater things to come. The magnificent achievements of our army and navy in the war with Spain for the liberation of the down trodden and oppressed people of Cuba from a domination of fastllllan des potism, accomplished under the mas ter and guidance of a republican ad ministration. are necessarily subjects for the highest encomium by the con vention of Ohio republicans. To the same guidance, controlled by the great principles that shaped the high destiny of the Republican party, from Lincoln to McKinley, people can safely commit the solution of the mo mentous problem of the future in Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines. Their wise solution will vastly In crease our foreign trade, spread American civilization abroad and ndd to the honor, power and glory of this great nation. We commend the presi dent for judicious modifications In th® civil service rules, recently promul gated; for national defense, for the reinforcement of the navy, for the en largement of our foreign markets, for the employment of American working men In the mines, the forests, the farms, the mills, the factories, and the shipyards. We demand Immediate enactment of legislation similar to that favorably reported to each branch of the Fifty fifth congress at the last session, bo that American built, American owned and American manned ships may re gain the carrying of our foreign com merce. ROBBERS TAKE THEIR TIME. Mall Clerk f.lves Ilia Vcinlon of the Holdup of Colon I’aellle Train. OGDEN, Utah, June 5.—W. G. Bruce, one of the mail clerks on the train that was robbed In Wyoming, has arrived at Ogden. He said that when the train stopped the robbers came to his car and ordered him to open the door. He refused and the robbers began shooting into the car from both sides. Bruce turned out the lights. Then a stick of dynamite was placed under the door and it was shattered. The clerks, fear ing the car would be blown to pieces, opened the door. One of the robbers stuck his gun into the car and tired, but the bullet did no damage. The lights were then turned on and the clerks got out of the car. The clerks In the Portland mail car were also ordered out and the party of clerks and trainmen were stood up in a line and guarded by one man. A de mand was then made of Ernest Wood cock, the express messenger, to open his car. but he refused. A couple of shots were fired into the car and the door blown o(T. The express and mall cars were run down the track a mile or two to the camp of the robbers. There the trainmen were placed about 150 feet from the track and about twenty sticks of dynamite were explod ed on top of the safe in the express car. The explosion wrecked the car and spilt the safe wide open. Five of the robbers carried away two loads each from the safe and must have se cured a large amount of plunder. When the robbery was complete the robbers walked leisurely up the hill north and disappeared in the darkness. Two hours were consumed In the rob bery.

The robbery was one of the boldest that has oc curred on any western railroad in years, but, according to the statements of the local officials of the express company, the plunderers obtained only a nominal reward for tbelr exertions. A posse of well armed and determined men, headed by the sheriff of Carbon county, is close on their trail and It is not believed that they can escape capture and punishment. Only meager details of the affair are yet available. The first Informa tion that reached the Union Pacific officials came at 4:25 this morning In a brief telegram from Engineer Jones, who whs at the throttle of the train, and which contained the following: "First section, No. 1, held up one mile west of Wilcox. Express car blown open, contents gone. We were ordered to pull over bridge Just west of Wilcox, and after we passed the bridge the explosion occurred. Can’t t»11 how bad bridge Is damaged. Have telegraphed for outfit to repair It. No one hurt except Jones; scalp wound and cut on hand. ’’JONES, Engineer.’’ During the forenoon the dispatch was supplemented by several other telegrams, each one of which added one or two details to what was already at hand. These Indicate that the rob bers hoarded the train at Wilcox, where No. 1 is due at 2:0'J a. m. As the train reached the bridge one or more of the robbers crawled Into the cab and, with leveled weapons, ordered Engineer Jones to pull across and stop on the other side. Other members of the gang were at work In the express car, where a heavy charge of dynamite was placed to blow open the safe. Just as the engine pulled off the bridge there was a tre mendous explosion that drove the remnants of the express car 100 feet In every direction, stove in one end of the mail car and knocked out a number of the stringers of the bridge. i ne wounds received by Engineer Jones were dealt by the flying missiles scattered by the explosion. It did not take the robbers long to complete their work. The express car was knocked into kindling wood and the big safe was open and ready for their fingers. They quickly snatched Its contents, signaled to tbelr confed erates on the engine and before the passengers and the remainder of the train crew knew what had happened they were scurrying away towards unerty. As the train is due at Medicine Bow at 2:35 and the dispatch from En gineer Jones did not arrive until nearly two hours later, ft. Is presumed that tt required nearly that time to dispose of the wreckage and permit the train to proceed. The run to.Med icine Bow was made as quickly as pos sible and therp the engineer wired the news to headquarters at Omaha, while the local officials routed out the sheriff, who Immediately organized a posse and took the trail. While the rain that fell in torrents while the robbery was going on as sisted to screen the operations of the robbers, it will also assist materially in their capture. The soft ground makes the trail as plain as could he desired and the sheriff declares that he will have his men before night. A later telegram from the scene of the robbery conveyed the Information that the west bent of the bridge was shattered. It will require new string ers and some slight additional repairs, but the damage is not scriousenough to intprefere with the regular running of trains. The passengers were scared out of their wits by the startling ex plosion just as they were In the depth of their matutinal slumber, hut none of them were disturbed by the robbers, who seemed satisfied with the con tents of the express safe. The local officials of the express company have received no information beyond a telegram which stated that the train had beeu held up and the safe blown open. ll«B«»r'i Story of th* Hold-lip DENVER, June 3.—A special to the Times from Cheyenne, Wyo., says: At 4 o'clock this morning I'nlon Pacific mall and express train No. 1 was held up one and ona-half miles west of Wil cox station.

A majority of the Cubans here do not believe the statement, thinking the story was prepared to injure them in public opinion, but facts prove the story to be true.
