The Nebraska railroad lands which were recently sold will not be placed on the market until the deeds for the same pass to the new company. This will probably take place within thircy days. A large number of applications for portions of these lands have been received at the office anu will be awarded when the property is put on the market. This will make the first month's sales of Nebraska land run up into big figures. J. H. Reigel , manager of the Stand ard Oil company's wholesale business in Beatrice , lost nis life in a runaway.

The horses ran across the * track , turn ed and threw Mr. Reigel from the wagon gen violently to the ground , he strik ing on his head , and when picked up he was unconscious. He died in less than an hour , his neck having 'been ' broken. Railroad employes , and especially t-ainmen , are much exercised over senate file 187 , pending in the legisla ture.

THE AMERICANS LOSE ONE HUNDRED of the Fllllplnos in the Engagement Is Thrco or Four Hundred Kehcls Make a Final Stand and Fight Desper ately Stake Everything oil the Attempt to Overthrow the Americans. MANILA , March 25. ( New York World Cablegram. ) A sweeping vic tory over Aguinaldo's forces has just been won by the United States troops. The total American loss is estimated at about 100 , including both the killed and wounded. The Filipino loss is be tween 300 and 400. Major General Otis having completed the plans for striking what he hoped would be a final crushing blow to the native rebellion , the advance was or dered Friday morning. Major General ptis' brigade was astir early , breaking ! camp quickly and getting ready for a swift movement. The Third and Sev enteenth regiments of United States infantry , which had gone aboard the transport Sherman , to be conveyed pre sumably to some point on the bay , dis embarked to march to the front over land. The Twenty-second regiment of United States infantry and the Oregon volunteer regiment were among the first troops to set out today for the scene of impending action to the north of Manila. The rebels had been expecting an advance movement for some days. [ Their spies within our lines usually have kept them advised of the Ameri can plans of operation. In this case the Filipinos knew they must make their most stubborn stand , as the American commander meant to wipe them out or disperse them and capture their capitol , Malolos. They moved forward from Malolos , leaving there only a bodyguard for Aguinaldo , it is said , and concentrat ed in large numbers about Malabon , which lies to the north of Manila on the railway and on the shore of the bay. There * they had been exceedingly ac tive for several days fortifying. They had constructed several lines of trenches and had arranged defenses peculiar to the country , and doubtless felt that they could at least hold the Americans at bay. So busy had they been in getting ready for a supreme struggle that they had neglected to make their customary attacks by sharpshooters on our out posts. The fighting today was desper ate on the part of the Filipinos and de termined on the part of the Americans. The result was disastrous to the rebels. Decision of President Deferred. THOMASVIL-LB , Ga. , March 25. The administration will not decide upon its permanent policy respecting the Philippines until the Schurman commission reports. It feels mai its knowledge of the conditions is too in definite as a basis ror a fixed policy. Moreover , an immediate decision is felt to be needless , since for the present the only problem is the resto ration of law and order and the estab lishment of stable peaceful conditions. This and the appointment of a diplo matic representative at Madrid are two of the most important matters remaining open. The Madrid mission probably will be raised to an embassy soon after payment of the $20,000,000 indemnity and a man of the highest qualifications and attainments chosen for this delicate and important post. General Woodford may not be the new envoy , owing to the fact that New York already has such an undue pro portion of the highest diplomatic ap pointments. "Wail of the Spanish Press. MEXICO CITY , March 25. Corea Espanola , the organ of the Spanish colony , continues to insult the Ameri cans in Cuba and says today : "Civilization has disappeared from Cuba with the disappearance of the Spanish flag. No spectacle could be ; more repulsive. The American soldiers have converted the beautiful park there into a camp. There they eat , tnere they drink and there they wallow free ly , like hogs in the creek on a sum mer day. ; "Oh. what a sad page to the history of t-e human race is the United States . writing in Cuba anu the Philippines ! , What a step backward in the path of , civilization has been taken by North America in letting loose its immoral and cynical soldiery on those unhappy countries ! " Funeral of the Princess. . SAN FRANCISCK ) , Cal. , March 25. The steamer Doric arrived from the orient via Honolulu and brings news from Honolulu , under date of March 15 , telling of the funeral of the late Princess Kaiulani , who died on the 6th inst. from inflammatory rheumatism. The funeral of the princess was the largest ever held in Honolulu , and was attended by members of the family and by the officials of the different na tions. liryaii at Memphis. MEMPHIS , Tenn. , March 25. Will iam J. Bryan arrived in Memphis early yesterday morning. He was met by a local committee and escorted to the s Peabcdy hotel , where a public recep tion was held in the afternoon. Last night Mr. Bryan delivered a lecture at the Auditorium under' the auspices of the Nineteenth Century club , after which he left for Little Rock. Enlisting Volunteer Imimmcfl. WASHINGTON , March 25. The war department has heen asked if the vol unteers ( immunes ) could he enlisted in their entirety. It is said some of these regiments desired to he sent to the Philippines. In reply the depart ment says such enlistments cannot he made. The temporary re-enlistments pro vided for under the army law are to be made from volunteer troops now serving in the Philippines who will he subject to immediate muster out as soon as the ratification of the peace treaty is proclaimed. PREPARING FOR FIGHT. Tlio Filliplnos Busy Throwing Up Defenses - fenses at Slalubon. MANILA , March 25. The enemy is extremely active in the vicinity of Malabon in preparing defenses , evi dently anticipating an attack. They keep well under cover. A small body of rebels , however , emerged from the jungle on the extreme left yesterday and fired upon the Kansas troops in the trenches , fatally wounding Private Cohen of Company B and Private Muser of Company E. The Oregon volunteers and the Twenty-second regulars marched to the front today. The Third and Sev enteenth regiments have disembarked from the Sherman. General H. G. Otis' brigade struck its tents this morning and an early move is probable. Sixteen English refugees arrived here yesterday from Dagupan , the railroad terminus , on board the steamer Sa- turnus. They report that the natives are generally friendly and the officers invariably courteous. Mr. Higgins , manager of the railroad , and about a dozen unmarried men , in charge of various business interests , incline to take advantage of the opportunity to leave. Nothing has been heard from the two American planters at Calumpit since hostilities began. According to Filipino accounts a thousand Americans have been killed , the fatalities being especially heavy at Caloocan , where the United States troops "rushed like madmen against a storm of bullets. " Two Spanish prisoners who have es caped from Polo to the lines of the Kansas regiment report that the Fili pinos-have concentrated their forces at Malabon and Polo. They add that only Aguinaldo's bodyguard is at Ma lolos and that jthe rebel leaders appar ently intend to stake their fortunes on a fight at Malabon , where it was expected an engagement would take place yesterday. If defeated , it is further asserted , the rebels intend to disperse to the swamps and mountains. The rebels were putting their Bolos in front , believing that the Bolomen'a charms will avert flie hullets. The Bolos of the Filipinos greatly out number the rifles in their hands. The rebels are further said to have ad mitted that they cannot withstand the American shells and bayonet charges. The escaped Spaniards corroborated the stories told of food shortage among the rebels and they added that their hospitals are short of supplies. WASHINGTON , D. C. , March 25. It is understood here that General Otis has so far matured his plans of cam paign that within a week or ten days he will be able to begin a movement which is expected to mark the de struction of Aguinaldo's army. Al though stragglers and fugitives may infest the island of Luzon for some time , it is believed that after Otis has delivered his next blow the insurgent army , as an organization , will have ceased to exist. The new movement will be carried on , it is understood , by a combined land and water attack , though it is not expected that the navy's part in the program will be particularly promi nent. Otis has procured thirteen of the gunboats formerly owned by the Spanish government , anuthey are to play an important part in the develop ment of the campaign. Many of the troops which had been engaged on the outer lines up to the date of General Lawton's arrival at Manila have been withdrawn to the water front and a complete reorganization of the army is now in progress. The reinforcements now arriving at Manila are being used to maintain the strength of the lines running from Manila to Pasig , estab lished by Wheaton's flying brigade. The next movement that is expected here is by water. It is believed that Otis will place a complete brigade on board vessels , steam rapidly northward ind land it beyond the insurgent head quarters at Malolos. If this movement succceecls , as it should , if made with rapidity , the insurgent army will find itself completely penned in with no op portunity for retreat. To the north will be this flying brigade , on the east Laguna de Bay , across which they will be prevented from escaping by the American gunboats now afloat there ; the Pasig river to the south is well loliced by tin-clads , and with a strong line in the position occupied by Wheaton's brigade will cut off any novement in that direction , while to he west the Bay of Manila is closed jy Dewey's vessels. It is hard to conceive how , if this jlan carries , the insurgents can longer ivoid a decisive conflict which must jnd either in their breaking through he American lines or in their surren- ler. It is evident that Otis expects .he latter , for he has already advised he war department that the insurrec- ion cannot last much longer. Increase In TVages Granted. CINCINNATI , March 25. The local ron foundrymen's association , after a eng consideration of the demand of .he members of the Iron Molders' In- ernational union for an increase of rages , has decided to grant a 10 per ent increase , to take effect May 1. fhe two parties in interest have also igreed upon a plan for the yearly ad- ustment of wages through annual con- c-rences to be held whenever either larty gives thirty days' notice of a lesire to have the rate changed at the [ md of the year. [ I Temporary Setback for KJplIng. ' NEW YORK , March 25. Rudyard [ Kipling , who had steadily improved n his recovery from his long illness rom pneumonia , had a temporary set- [ lack Thursday night when he was eized by a fainting spell.

Mr. Kipling exerted limself a little too much on Thursday , le is still in bed. Slieriiiiiii Kxj-cctcd Home Tursdn.T. : WASHINGTON , D. C. . March 25. Irs. McCallum , former Secretary Sher- lan's daughter , today received a ablegram from Mr. Wiborg stating hat Mr. Sherman would sail today on he Chicago and requesting Mrs. Mc- allum to meet the party at Fort Mon- oe on Tuesday. Mrs. McCallum will ) save here next Monday in order to e at Fort Monroe when Mr. Sherman rrives. This cablegram evidently < le- jrmines the destination of the Chi- ) ago.

Choate , the United States ambassador , and Mrs. Choate have been elected life members of the Sesame Club in London. The objects of the club , of which Lady Isabel Mar- eesson and Mrs. Plowden are secre taries , are educational and literary. At Lincoln , Neb. , Federal Judge Garland of South Dakota , acting for Judge Munger of Nebraska , sentenced Frank.M. M. Dorsey to six years in the penitentiary at Sioux Falls. Dorsey was convicted of wrecking the First National bank of Ponca , Neb. , of which he was cashier and manager. The drink bill of Great Britain , just published , shows that the Englishman drinks 2.41 gallons of alcohol a year. Next to him comes the Scotchman , with an appetite slaked with 1.66 gal lons. The Irishman contents himself with 1.54 gallons. The first spends ? 20.50 a year for his drinks , the second end $15.25 and the third $13.25. Plans for an interstate fair and ex position were laid before capitalists of St. Joseph , Mo. , by J. T. Imbrie , for merly well known as an exnosition promoter. The plans will probably be accepted. The exposition will continue a month or more in the fall of each year , and may occupy an auditorium plans of which are being discussed. A companion of Dewey's quotes th < admiral thus : "I did not imagine tha little target practice before breakfas on the 1st of May would bring a nev adjective into the language , but , lool here , I have a Dewey witch , with i case made from the Maine. One of the manufacturers who had named a ha after me wished to send me one and wrote me asking what size I wore. I told him the same size that I wore be fore May 1. " A boiler in the basement of a sa loon on the corner of Washington and South Second streets , Seattle , exploded , injuring five men who were passing by on the sidewalk. The man who had charge of the boiler is miss ing. The boiler was located under the sidewalk and , beyond the breaking of glass , no damage was done the build ing , which is a three-story brick. The injured men were thrown thirty or forty feet in the air. The western roads have definitely decided to abolish the feeding in transit rates which have bean granted to stockmen for several years past. The date has not been definitely de cided though it will probably be May 20. The Kansas roads cannot change the rate much sooner than that as the state law requires sixty day's notice of such change. It is the expressed opinion that all roads will make the change at the same date to avoid con fusion. The police at lerra Haute , Ind. , ar rested Rocam Ingram , a farmer , on a peculiar charge. Ingram was employ ed on the farm ol George H. Frink , near Chrisman , 111. , and several days ago , while u.gg ug near his employ ers' barn , unearthed an old tomato can containing $80. Ingram continued his search with such good results that he brought to the surface $1,600 wmcii had been buried in old cans and dis carded shoes. Frink , whose mouey it was , discovered his loss and telegraph ed the police of Terra Haute. The English merchants have been startled by the heavy inroads being made by Americans into their trade with the British colony at Cape Town , and there is much talk of combination to repress this. Consul General Stowe , at Cape Town , in a report to the state department , points out some instances of the success of American enterprise in that line of recent occurrence. Two orders for American rails and tubing , amounting to $2,500,000 , have just been placed at a price 20 per cent be low British quotations , and , the Scotch makers refusing to make the tubes as long as required , the order went to America. A large match fac tory is being erected in Cape Towu to use American machinery. The interstate commerce commission was defeated in the United States cir cuit court of appeals sitting in New York. The decree was in the cases of the commission versus the Western & Atlantic Railroad company in one case and the Clyde Steamship company et al in two others. In 1891 the commis sion sought to enforce its regulations respecting freight charges from points north of the Ohio river and seaports north of Charleston to southern points , claiming that the railroads had no right to discriminate against certain points in favor of others which brought a longer haul. The railroads ignored the ruling of the commission , and the latter sought an injunction from the United States circuit court in the northern district of Georgia , but lost. The circuit court of appeals today upheld the decision of the lower : ourt. I,1VE STOCK AND PRODUCE. Dxnaha , Chicago and New York Market Quotations.

RECOMMENDS PE-RU-NA AS A FAMILY MEDICINE. * .i A Sclentlflc Spring Medicine and Bomedy / toe Catarrh and Stomacli Trouble. Colonel Arthur L. Hamilton , of the Seventh Ohio Volunteers. 259 Goodale street , Columbus , Ohio , -writes : Be sides having the merits of Pe-ru-na so fully demonstrated in my family , 1 Colonel Hamilton , of Columbus. O. have a number of friends who have taken it for catarrh and stomach , trouble , and all unite in praising it. As a remedy for catarrh I can fully ; recommend it. " Mrs. Hamilton , wife- of the gallant colonel , is an ardent friend of Pe-ru-na also. In a letter on the subject , she writes : "I have been taking Pe-ru-na for some time , and I am enjoying better health now than I have for years. I attribute the change in my health to Pe-ru-na. and. recommend this excellent catarrh remedy to every woman , believing it to be especially beneficial to them. " The spring-time is the most favor able time of the year to treat catarrh. There is so much less liability to take fresh cold that the treatment is un impeded. All old A cases of chronic ca tarrh should begin imme diately a course of Pe-ru-na as directed in Dr. Hartman's books on this disease. There are so mr.ny different phases and stages of catarrh - tarrh that one Js h n. r fl 1 v tr n n w s ' 5 when he has it. A great many people jirs. Col. Hamilton , think they are suffering from some thing else and have tried many medi cines in vain , when if they could real ize that it is catarrh and take Pe-ru-na. for it they would improve promptly ; and soon recover entirely. There are no substitutes. Let no one persuade you there are other catarrh remedies- just as good. "Winter Catarrh" is a book written , \r by Dr. Hartman , Columbus. Ohio. Sent free to any address.
