north from Jaro , taking trench after
trench , the enemy fighting and retreat
ing.
General Hughes' column has boon
steadily advancing north to gain a po
sition west of Santa Barbara.
It encountered the enemy In small
detachments. Six to ten Americans
were wounded In this column. Colonel
Carpenter started during the night of
November 20 , and opened with Battery
G of the Sixth artillery at daybreak ,
November 21 , on the trenches. The
enemy volleyed as the artillery took up
a position , wounding four.
Two companies of the Twenty-sixth
regiment garrisoning Jaro , moved
through Caraz , attacking the enemy on
the right flank just north of Jaro at
daybreak , November 21 , driving them
toward Colonel Carpenter. The coun
try between Jaro and Santa Barbara
i thickly entrenched , especially near
Pavla. The Sixth artillery fired on the
trenches and the Eighteenth regiment
charged , the enemy retreating to tlu >
next trench. The Eighteenth again
charged , encountering and attacking a
force of bolomen who were hidden In
the long grass and who severely
wounded several Americans.
During the afternoon of November
21 the fighting was severe immediate
ly south of Pavia , three miles north
of Jaro.
The column returned to Jaro after
the flank movement , having captured
three six-round smoothbore cannons
and a quantity of arms and ammuni
tion.
tion.The enemy's loss was not obtainable ,
but seven men were found dead In one
trench. The Insurgents are falling
back on Santa Barbara , which It Is ex
pected General Hughes has attacked
before this.
A Spanish corporal , captured by the
Filipinos , has arrived hero from Tar-
lac. Ho says ho saw Agulnaldo , ac
companied by a prominent leader and
fifteen men , arrive at Bayambong
during the night of November 13 , hatless -
less , his clothes torn and spattered
with mud and his horse exhausted.
Agulnaldo , It appears , rested a short
time , seemed anxious , consulted with
his companions and the villagers as to
the nature of the roads , secured fresh
horses and proceeded Immediately to
ward Mangalaren In Pangasinan prov
ince , west of Bambang.
. The corporal tells a straight story ,
giving minute details. He Is convinced
he 1 ? not mistaken , having seen Aguln
aldo several times during recent
months.
Agulnaldo , it appears , would have
time to leave Bayambong November
33 and pass through General Wheaton's
lines November 17.

NEBRASKA CITY , Nob. , Nov. 21.
Senator Hayward rested easily and
appears bettor than ho was. Ills pulse
and temperature are normal , a fact
that Is gratifying to his physicians.
The paralysis of the lower limbs wnleh
alarmed the physicians yesterday ,
seems to be gradually receding today ,
giving these members freer action , but
his right arm is useless , his speech
difficult and his mind is clouded at in
tervals.
Dr. Bridges came from Omaha and
spent most of the night with the uieit
man. He says that the condition of
the patient Is Improved over what it
was when he was here before , Ho ncld
a consultation with Dr. Whlttcn and
Indorsed the treatment prescribed by
the latter during the last few days.
Dr. Bridges agreed with Dr. Whit-
ten that it cannot be known at this
time whether or not there Is serious
inflammation about the lesion in the
brain. Both physicians expressed
themselves as being satisfied with tne
manner in which the case is progrcbS-
ing , but were reticent upon the sub
ject of the prospects for any perma
nent improvement.
SPAIN WANTS TO KNOW.

WASHINGTON , D. C. , Nov. 24. The
Spanish minister , the Duke d'Arcos ,
called at the state department today
to learn the prospects for the release of
the Spanish prlsoncis held in the Phil
ippines. Thus far nothing has been
heard as to the measure of success at
tending the dispatch of a message from
President McKinley to Agulnaldo con
cerning the Spanish captured , but it is
assumed that the recent forward" move
ment of the American troops and the
routing of the Filipinos that difficulty
has been experienced by General Mac-
Arthur in delivering the messages. 'Iho
American forces have t'iced scattered
bands , about sixty to eighty in till ,
and besides these 200 sick prisoners arc
about to bo relpased and put aboaid
an American ship now on the way
north to receive them. There now re
main about 2,000 or 3,000 Spanish pns-
oners in the hands of the insurgents.

Nehranttii Matter- * .
LINCOLN , Nob. . Nov. 27 Ono of the
most Important duties the new State
Unlveislty Board of regents will have
to perform will bo the selection of n
chancellor. Dean Chailes E. Bossoy
has been acting chancellor since the
beginning of the university year and
will probably continue In the same ca
pacity until next fall. It Is possible
that no selection will be made for a
year or more , but It 13 generally be
lieved by thoao connected with the unl-
vtralty that the matter will be taken up
by the regents at the April meeting.
The list om candidates for the chancel
lorship is growing larger every day.
Nearly all state are represented and
there aio even ono or two people in
Europe mentioned for the place.
There has been some talk of the
present Board of Regents st'.ectlng a
man before the terms of the outgoing
members explie , but the board itself
has not considered the proposition and
it is unlikely that such action will be
taken. It has always been the policy
of the regents to move slowly in such
matters nnd it would not be surprising
if no selection is made for over a year.
Of the men mentioned for the posi
tion of chancellor the mo t prominent
are : Superintendent Andrews of the
Chicago public schools , President .1.
C Stubbs of the Nevada State univer
sity , President W. ri. Chaplin of the
Washington university of St. Louis
and Prof. Jeuka , formerly of Cornell
university. Supcrlntedont Andrews Is
very popular In this city and a stiong
effort Is being made In his behalf.
The newly elected regents will take
their seats in January , but the first
really Important meeting will not beheld
held until April.
The ( " .Huge Iii Trclghc Ititrfl.
LINCOLN , Neb. , Nov. 27. The usual
end of the year changes in freight
rates on the railroads is causing more
than the usual stir among shippers of
bulky commodities. Especially are the
lumber dealers of the state worked up
over the new schedule which goes into
effect the middle of next month. S ° v-
eial of these country dealeis have been
in Lincoln during the past few days
and the higher rates have been the
topic of discussion among them gener
ally.
ally.The
The railroads' anouncement that the
car load rate for cattle would be dis
continued next month has caused cat
tle shippers to renew the old contest
that was on two years ago. The car
load rate permits cattlemen to pay so
much for the car and then load it aa
they please , In4 certain limits. The
rate per1 hundred weight permits the
railroad to charge for every pound
carried. It is considered probable that
there will be some vigorous remons
trances against some of tha changes
like the above which the state board
of transportation will have to hear
this winter.
Hlg Itrul irHtnto Deal.
K1MBALL. Neb. , Nov. 27. Ono ot
the largest , If not the largest , real es

low ranch , six miles cast of town.
This valuable ranch , which consists of
5,800 acres , has Just been purchased
from the Bay State Llvo Stock com
pany by Robert Deal and Mr. Hagger-
ty. The latter Is Mrs. Deal's partner
In a copper mine In Wyoming. The
ranch has about twenty-five miles of
fence and a good meadow from which
500 or COO tons of good hay Is cut
every year. The purchasers get this
year's hay crop. It Is understood they
will stock It up with cattle or sheep In
the near future and Mr. Deal will look
after this ranch In connection with his
own ranch.

NATIONAL GUARD REGIMENT.
Adjutant tloncrnl Him Issued n
tlon for Kitulpincnt.
LINCOLN , Nov. 21. The adjutant
general has Issued a requisition on the
military department at Washington
for equipment for another regiment of
the Nebraska National guard. Ar
rangements have been completed by
the military authorities of the state
for the organization of this regiment ,
which will bo named after the First
regiment of Nebraska volunteers , In
recruiting prcfoionces will bo given to
members of the old organization and
the companies so far as possible , will
bo formed according to Its schedule.
Captain Vlckcro , Into of company F of
the First regiment , has been author
ized to recruit .or reorganize his old
company and similar orders will bo Is
sued later by the adjutant general di
recting the organization of other com
panies.
The condition of the Nebraska Na
tional guard will hardly permit Iho
holding of another encampment un
less the state goes Into debt. The ap
propriation made by the legislature
was much smaller than the amount
asked for by the adjutant general nnd
It Is quite probable that there will ho
a deficiency in the fund by the end of
next year. It la thought , however ,
that by going Into debt for the amount
of transportation of the troops it will
bo possible to hold the encampment as
usual next year.

OMAHA , Neb. . Nov. 24. Business of
the United States court is at present
seriously hampered by lack of funiJa.
There Is no danger of an entire sus
pension of the work before thc > stand
jury , but it will probably bo neces
sary to dispense with many witnesses
living at 11 distance because there is
no money with which to pay tholr fees
or railway fares. It Is likely that oi\ly
such witnesses as llvo In the city or
wear at hand will bo summoned.
This condition of nffalni has been
caused by the recent change made , in

this and sent back word that a power
ttf attorney must bo sent on , showing
that the agent was duly uuthorlzed to

Governor Poynter , a suit , to test the
constitutionality of the Weaver In
surance law , a law which removes the
Insurance department from the control
of the auditor and provides for an In
crease of fees from insurance compa
nies. The case was argued and sub
mitted to the court. It Is believed that
a decision will bo given within a few
weeks. Deputy Insurance Commis
sioner Bryant nnd Deputy Attoiney
General Oldham appeared for the gov
ernor , while Robert Ryan spoke for
Auditor Cornell. Attorneys who heaul
the argument were of the opinion that
no case had ever been presented to the

Chicago Wrecking company lina put

The transportation building at the
north end of the West Midway , will
bo allowed to stand and bo used as ix
storage house by the wrecking com
pany. Later an auction of odds and
ends will bo bold in It.
The agriculture building was the one
first tacled by the forces of demolition.
The workmen began at the roof , re
moving the rubborold and the gravel.
Then they tear oft the sides and 10-
move or shako off the staff and sheath
ing. Next the frame comes do\\n.
Finally the trusses are lowered. Every
body had a dream that staff could bo
converted into a fertilizer. The com
pany has no other disposition In view
than to fill excavations with It and
does not expect It to fertilize any crop
not oven of wild oata sown on the
Midway site. It may find Its use luter.
Most of the material to bo wrecked
Is already s5\l , ono man In Iowa , for
Instance , having bought 200,000 feet of
lumber. Lumber Is freed from naiia ,
the ends are squared up and then It la
marketable for use in constructing
small buildings.
Fifteen tons of wire was counted
up by the wrecking company , but the
outlook Is that It will not find over
half that quantity , for concessionaires
have carried off bomo and unknown
parties have stolen more.
