since the first day's fighting around
Manila. Authentic reports , mostly of
ficial , show a total of 378 Filipinos

IliS Money in Klcctriclty.
NEW YORK , April 23. The annual
report of the General Electric company
issued today shows gross receipts for
the year ending January 31 , 1900 , of
$23,248,170. Of this amount there was
a total profit for the year of $5,479,130.
The sum of $1,282670 was absorbed in

Rivera , secretary of agriculture , has
had a long interview with Governor
General Wood regarding the letter
which he wrote urging a union of po
litical parties and unanimous demand
of independence by the end of 1901.
General Rivera will probably resign
early this v/eck from his official posi
tion. The Cubano predicts that the re
maining secretaries will do likewise ,
as it is recognized that General Rivera
holds a powerful influence. Otner sec-
etaries of agriculture will not affect
them. They give it as their belief that
the party will be benefited by xuvcra's
resignation.

that desertion of a wife in a foreign
country for five years had been con
strued by the Nebraska courts as a di
vorce. His English wife is an actress
and Hill says that they never lived to

TURKEY REPLIES
Americans to 15c Compensated Sfime ns
Other Foreign Subjects.
CONSTANTINOPLE , April 23. The
porte has replied to the American de
mands , stating that Turkey will com
pensate American missionaries under
the same conditions as in the case of
other foreign subjects.
The United States legation has
joined the other embassies in protest
ing against the increase of Import
duties.
The porte has not yet replied to the
last colective note , but the changed
tone of the Ottoman officials leads tea
a belief that a settlement has been
reached in conformity with the de
mands of the foreign republics. It is
now fully expected that the porte will
invite the embassies to discuss ttie
proposed changes.
There is general interest in polit
ical circles regarding the attitude of
the United States in the indemnity
claim and it is believed that the pow
ers having similar claims will support
American action.
WASHINGTON , April 23. Neither
Secretary Hay nor the Turkish minis
ter has been advised of the reported
action of the porte in replying to the
American demands. In the absence
of official information and of the spe
cific conditions 01 the reply , officials
here prefer not to discuss the matter ,
but express the hope that a satisfac
tory and amicable settlement of the
differences between the two countries
may be reached.
DATILE IS RAGING
Boerg Fie.-ccly Attacked Dalgetty's Po
sition to Anticipate Relief.
MASERU , Basutoland , April 23.
Evening Four Boer guns have been
hard at work all day on Colonel Dal-
gety's position , i ne British guns have
replied at intervals.
The Boers are divided into three di
visions , two be ng in positions to re
pel the relief columns , the distant roar
of whose artillery is audible.
General Brabant's relief force is re
ported to be today in the neighborhood
of Bushman's Kop , twenty miles from
Wepener.
The Basutos are posted on the border
for defensive purposes. They are be
having in orderly fashion , but are
showing the most intense interest in
the outcome of the developments of the
next twenty-four hours.
MASERU , Basutoland , April 23
General Brabat's guard reached Bush-
ina's Kop last evening. The Boers held
a strong position there , with two guns.
The engagement opened at sunrise
with heavy rifle fire. At G:30 a. m. can
nonading began and continued for sev
eral hours.
General Brabant's forces are on the
plain and have fairly open country all
the way to Wepener.
Evidently the Boers reattacked Dal-
gety today.
Colonel Dalgety heliographs :
"All well. Boers fired 300 shells yes
terday with doing much damage. "
BRYAN'S AID WILL BE ASKED
Good Offices of Silver I.ettler Sought to

TOPEKA , Kan. , April 23 While W.
J. Bryan is in Wichita this week his
good offices , will it is said , be sought
to settle differences existing between
the populists and democrats in the
Sixth and Seventh districts , where fu
sion is split wide open on account of
the attitude of rival nominees for con
gress.
The fusion politicians are very
much concerned by the situation in
these districts and they also look for
ward to the Third district democratic
'and populist conventions , set for May
21 , with much alarm , for if a demo
crat be not given the united nomina
tion in that district a split will , it is
predicted' , 'be inevitable between the
two state conventions to be held later
at Fort Sscott The district is now
represented in congress by Hon. E. R.
Ridgely , populist. Mr. Bryan is booked
to speak at Wichita on Tuesday.
GERMANY UNABLE TO HELP
SJG Uo Reason "Why Boer Delegation
. Should Visit That Country.
BERLIN , April 23. Tne semi-official
Berliner Post publishes an inspired
article in which it is stated that the
sentiment regarding the Boers still re
mains friendly throughout Germany ,
but that the government sees no rea
son why tlie Boer peace delegation
should come to Berlin , since no good
could be gained from such a visit ,
Germany being unable to render the
slightest service , either in friendly of
fices to both sides or in intermediation
so long as Great Britain remains de
termined to reject both.

NO ULTIMATUM AS YET ISSUED
Stnto Department Proceeding YFHh Can
lion in Its AVork There iiro Others
Having Claims Which the Turkish Gov
ernment lias Tliua Knr Ignored Undo
Sam to Tnko t'.io Initiatory Toward
Collection.
WASHINGTON , April 21. Secre
tary Hay returned to Washington to
day from New York. An accumula
tion of departmental business awaited
him , but nothing in the nature of an
ultimatum directed to the Turkish
government was included in the mass
of correspondence.
It is apparent that , though deter
mined upon positive action , the State
department is proceeding decorously
and with due precautions against be
ing led into any position which it can
not maintain. It may be stated by
authority that the State -department
is entirely satisfied of the accuracy
of Minister Staru.s' statement relative
to the promises made to him by the
porte , notwithstanding the attempted
explanations and efforts to becloud the
issue by declarations that the sultan's
promises were conditional.
The minister's dispatches , sent
while he was in Constantinople , are
couched in exact terms ; his written
statements were fully confirmed by
his oral explanations to the depart
ment upon his return to the United
States , and , moreover , the pledges h-j
secured were similar to those made
to the two proceeding United States
ministers to Turkey. In the opinion
of the State department officials it is
inconceivab.c that three United Statea
ministers should be consecutively de
ceived in the terms of a promise or
should have reached similar misunder
standings.
The approval which the State de
partment's latest action seems to have
received in Europe was anticipated ,
it being realized here that several of
the continental powers having claims
similar to our own against Turkey ,
being themselves prevented from imi
tating any forcible demand upon the
Turkish government by reason of the
jealousy of their neighbors , are en
tirely willing that the United States
government shall act as a pioneer in
this matter and clear the way for a
prosecution of their own claims.
MUST PAY FOR THEIR LANDS
iiiuser Herman Rules on the Bill to Give
Nebraska Settlers a I/ift.
WASHINGTON , April 20. Commis
sioner Herman of the general land
office , reporting upon the bill "for the
iclief of homestead settlers on that
portion of the great Sioux reservation
lying and being in the state of Ne
braska , formerly in the territory of
Dakota , now South Dakota , " says that
the design of the bill is to amend all
laws in force respecting that portion
of the great Sioux reservation in Ne
braska , so as to relieve the homestead
settlers thereon from the payment of
$1.25 per acre. That the settlers shall
receive patents for their homestead
entries on the payment of the usual
land fees , without being required to
pay any other or additional sum. This ,
Mr. Herman says , would be a discrim
ination in favor of these settlers and
against those in South Dakota upon
the former Sioux reservation.
HAVOC IS WROUGHT BY fLOOD
Millions of Dollars Worth of Property

NEW ORLEANS , April 22. The
flood which commenced the early part
of the week has alread caused , at a
conservative estimate , fully § 3,000,000
loss in central and southern Missis
sippi , to say nothing of the damage
sustained by the railroads. The ex
tent of the losses have not yet been
fully realized , and it may be some
days yet before an accurate total can-
be reacehd , for mail communication
has been totally cut off between those
localities which have sintered most
and the outside world.
ATill Support Mr. Uryan.
NEW YORK , April 21. The demo
cratic state committee met at the Hoff
man house today for the purpose of
naming a time and place lor holding
the state convention to elect four del-
egates-at-Iarge to the national con
vention at Kansas City. It is said
that Mr. Croker will join hands with
ex-Senator Hill to send an uninstructed -
ed delegation to Kansas City. The
leaders disclaim , however , any hos
tility to Mr. Bryan. Ex-Senator Hill
is now , so it is declared , ready to sup
port Bryan and will be with Bryan
this fall , the politicians say.
To Report Grand Army Bill.
WASHINGTON , D. C. , April 21
After extended conferences the house
committee on invalid pensions , of
which Representative Sulloway of New
Hampshire is chairman , finally deter
mined today to report to the house
senate bill 1477 , which is known as the
"Grand Army bill. " The final draft of
the bill aggregates the disabilities un
der which applications may be made
for pension under the act of June 27.
1809. The other radical change in ex
isting law is the changing of the rate
of income of a soldier's widow from

"actual net income of $250 per year. "
Rules as to Branding Cattle.
WASHINGTON , April 21. Congress
man Burke of South Dakota , in be
half of the stockmen of th estate , has
requested the Indian officials to frame
rules and regulations requiring stock
men and Indians on reservations to
comply with the state law with refer
ence to the branding of catttle. It is
asserted that many brands used on
reservations are similar to those reg
istered under the law , and that this
condition of affairs has created con
siderable confusion. It is probable
that such a regulation will be adopted.
TURKEY MUST PAY DP
Prosecution of Claims for Drtiuiigcs to
American MiMsioimncii.
WASHINGTON , April 19. The
news of the lirm Kttltnde assumed by
the state department toward the Turk
ish a'overnment in the prosecution of
its claim for damages to American
missionary property caused something
of a sensation in diplomatic circles to
day.
day.Three
Three successive American ministers
have prosecuted these claims ; each
has received a promise of prompt set
tlement , and yet not a dollar has been
paid. With European diplomats that
is an old experience and they have
consequently been somewhat surprised
at the announcement that the United
States government is actually going
to insist upon performance instead of
promise. Minister Angell , after trying
his hand at collecting for two years ,
recommended that a united States Avar
ship be sent to seize Smyrna and col
lect revenues at the custom house
there sufficient to meet our claims.
This suggestion was not seriously
entertained , nor is it now. In e first
place , according to ihe state depart
ment officials , most of the important
business interests in Smyrna are in
the hands of foreigners , not Turks ,
and a bombardment by a United
States fleet might result in a pretty bill
for damages against us.
Then , as there is still a remnant of
a Turkish navy , the United States
would have to send a squadron instead
of a single war ship. Such a move
ment would , without doubt , be reseni-
er by the remainder of Europe , winch
could not contemplate with equanim
ity an action by the United States mat
would perhaps destroy the iruits of
many years' work of the greatest
European statesmen by precipitating
a final crisis in Turkey.
Therefore the next step to oe taken
by our government will not be warlike ,
but will suggest in a most dignified
manner the indignation felt by the
United States at'the betrayal of Turk
ish promises. How this lutuude will
bear upon the Turkish minister in
Washington cannot be foreiom at this
moment. He is so far absolutely un-
entangled in the negotiations of th&e
American claims , but that fact might
not save him from being made tne im-
meniate victim of his country's lacnes.
The minister , -owever , is very popular
in Washington.
