Pilipinos at Manila Are Said to Have
Prepared for the Same ,
OFFICIALS DON'T LOOK FOR IT
Object of the Attempt May lie to Show
the Now Civil Commission Thut the
Insurrection Continue * An Insurgent
1'uper Says Congress lias Done Nothing- .
MANILA , May 14. The latest rumor
of an outbreak in Manila among the
natives , which was in circulation last
week , was seriously discussed by some
of the local papers and attracted more
general attention than has usually
been the case with this sort of thing.
As a matter of fact many Filipinos did
leave their American employers with
the apparent intention of joining some
such move. Their action , taken in
connection with the arrest of several
natives for carrying concealed weapons
and the dispersion of several suspicious
gatherings , gave color to the reports.
Officials have been active in the mat
ter , but are not inclined to think an
uprising will be attempted. They be
lieve the Filipinos lack the necessary
courage , especially in view of the fact
that the natives feared to attempt the
demonstration at the time or General
Lawton's funeral , alhough tney had
made careful preparations and many
insurgents had come to Manila for
this purpose.
A paper found among the effects of
General Pantealeon Garcia asserts that
the United States congress has done
nothing for the Filipinos and there
fore all Filipinos who are working for
Americans muslt leave their employers
at once or suffer the penalty. One re
port is that the Filipino junta is en
deavoring to incite an outbreak in or
der to show the civil commission that
the insurrection is still alive.
It does not seem possible that the
peace proposals Senor Buencamino has
drawn for submission to Aguinaldo
End the other insurgent leaders Avill
have much weight with -the Filipinos ,
Buencamino's reputation , 'gained in
former Avars , is that of a man who
hurries to get on the winning side. He
was in disfavor with the Filipinos
even before the collapse of their gov
ernment , owing to a widespread sus
picion of disloyalty to his colleagues.
Last week General MacArthur received -
ceived a large number of officials , consuls -
suls and representatives of commercial
bodies. To Lieutenant Colonel Crow-
der , his military secretary , he will as-
sign many duties heretofore devolving
on the adjutant general. This action
is taken in view of the increasing im
portance of the governor-general's po
sition. General MacArthur will give
to his staff authority in matters of de
tail and will devote himself largely to
questions of policy.
The towns of Holongus and Maalin
on the island of Leyte have been occu
pied by troops of the Forty-third vol
unteer infantry. The insurgents op
posed the landing of the Americans
and sustained heavy losses. The Amer
icans suffered three casualties.
CONGRESS NEARING AN END
House Ready to Adjourn June 1 , Senate
Continue Longer
WASHINGTON , May 14. The house
this -week , will send to the senate the
last of the general supply bills the
general deficiency and the military S
academy appropriation bills and will
be ready for adjournment as soon as v
the senate passes them and adjusts the h
differences betwee-i the two branches \v
upon those already passed or pending vo
In conference. These conference reports a
on appropriation bills are to be given u
the right of way from now until the c
end of the session. The house leaders
p
say they will be ready for the sine die
adjournment June 1 , but allowing for
delays and accidents incident to the
closing up of the session , they are
not inclined to think both houses will
be ready to quit before June 10. Later
on if complications arise in the senate
the house may emphasize its readiness
to adjourn by adjourning over from
day to day , while the senate is in the
final throes of dissolution.
The general deficiency bJl will be
taken up today and it will be followed
by the military academy bill. It is
understood the senate army reorgan
ization bill may be taken up on Wed- .
nesday. The remainder of the week i1
until Saturday will be devoted to mis- I
cellaneous matters. Saturday under a c
special order adopted some time ago is g
to be given up to the ceremonies attending -
tending the acceptance of the statue
of General Grant presented by the

LONDON , May 14. The Times pub tiF

in which he comments upon the sus alC
picion and jealousy with which official C
circles in Russia are watching the pro C

FOR THE LAST STAND.
All Sorts untl Conditions of Men Coin-
mnnilcercd at Pretoria.
LONDON , May 14. The Lourenzo
Marquez correspondent of the Times
telegraphing Sunday , says :
"It Js rumored that the Transvaal
raad , in secret session , has resolvec
to order all residents , Irrespective o ]
nationality , to assist in the defense or
the republic in accordance with the
terms of the revised military law.
"The Boers now recognize that they
are in the last extremity and all sorts
and conditions of men have been com
mandeered. The merchants have pro
tested against the stoppage of a con
j signment of clothing and corned beef
although the latter was purchased in
America. United States Consul Stan
ley Hollis , who sympathies are notor
ious , is said to have remonstrated
against what he called interference
with American trade. ' "
"The war is practically over , " says
the Daily Chronicle's Kroonstad cor
respondent , and in less definite terms
this is the view to be gathered from
ah the correspondents.
They picture the Boers as utterly
demoralized and disheartened by Lord
Roberts' unexpectedly rapid advance
and by his facile turning of the care
fully prepared positions of the Boers.
There was practically no lighting
and there are no further details to
give respecting the occupation of
Kroonstad. The correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph says the union jack
was hoisted in the market place by
Mrs. Lockhead , the American wife o
a Scotchman.
Most of the horses of the Boers are
in a wretched condition , but President
Kruger declares he will continue the
war.
It appears that the Boers at Kroon
stad had been reinforced by 3,000 men
from natal last Friday , and that alto
gether 3,000 with a number of guns
trekked from Kroonsstad on the approach
preach of Lord Roberts. The Boers
made an ineffectual stand at Bisch-
rand and had elaborate , entrenchments
in front of Kroonstad , which offered
great facilities for a rear guard action.
Their only anxiety , however , appears
to have been to get away safely with
all their guns and convoys , which
again they have successfully accom
plished. The few stores they were
unable to carry away they burned.

MUNCIE , lad. , May 1-1. C. F. W.
Neeley was called upon today at the
home of his sister and the reported
confession of Mr. Rich was read to
him. Mr. Neeley refused absolutely
to make a statement further than to

busines men , a son-in-law of Joseph A.
Godaard , wholesale grocer , and for
several years was a traveling salesman
and also was secretary of the Indiana

friend of Neeley's , and secured his ap

ment through Neeley. They were ex
tensively asociated together in busi
ness enterprises.

DID NOT SEEK THE NOMINATION
Cannot Allow His Name to Ho Used If
There Is to Ue Modification of the
Chicago Platform IJric-f Biographical
Sketch of the Nominee.
CHICAGO , May 12. Charles A.
Towne was seen at the Auditorium An
nex last night when about to take a
train for Duluth , his home. When
asked for an expression of opinon re
garding the action of the convention ,
he said : "I can only say what I have
always said in this connection , that I
have not sought the office and made
no efforts to secure the nomination ,
but if the populists and the other three
parties think I am the most available
man I will accept. I had wished all
along that the Sioux Falls convention
should name a committee to meet com
mittees of the other parties at Kansas
City , out it looks as though my friends
at Sioux Falls did not consider that
the best course. "
"If there is a modification of the Chicago
cage financial plank at Kansas City on
the silver question , would you accept
the vice presidential nomination ? "
"I certainly would not if It approach
ed in the remotest degree to a back
down from the plank of 1896. But
there will be no backdown ; the Chicago
cage plank will be reaffirmed. "
Charles A. Towne was born in Ing-
ham county , Michigan , near the city of
Lansing , forty-one years ago last Oc
tober. His parents were in comfort
able circumstances and young Towne.
after a common school education , was
sent to Ann Arbor university , where

courses. After receiving his sheepskin

where he opened a law office and prac
ticed his profession for three years.
He then moved to Chicago , where he
struggled to establish a practice for
several months , but gave it up aud
came to Duluth in the spring of 1S90.
Ho has always taken an active part
in politics and until the free silver agi
tation in 1896 was a republican.
In 1892 he stumped considerably for
the republican ticket through the
northwest , and his remarkable elo
quence soon brought him to the front.
At the next republican convention for
the Duluth district .Mr. Towne was enthusiastically -
thusiastically nominated for congress
and was elected with an overwhelming
majority. He seemeed destined to be
one of the foremost republicans in the
west until in the early summer of 1896
he declared himself in favor of free sil
ver. In the fall he was nominated by
the democrats and populists as their
candidate for congress , although hold
ing his seat In that body as a repub
lican. He was defeated by Page Mor
ris by nearly 2,000 votes. In the fall of
1898 he was again nominated by the
fusionists for congress and was once
more defeated by Morris by a plurality
of 1,000 votes , although he carried Dn-
luth , the home town of both candi-
dates , by J.,343. In the summer of 1898
! i3 was "chosen chairman of the na
tional silver republicans.

MR. BRYAN THEIR CHOICE.
Ho Is Nominated for President by tlio
Sloax FallB Convention.
SOUX FALLS , May 11. The dele
gates to the populist national conven
tion were not all prompt In congre-
grating at the wigwam at the hour set
lor convening this morning. Many of
them had found either the work in
the committee assignments or the gos
sip incident to the convention too ah
sorbing for them to get to bed early
and many remained abroad until the
early hours of the morning. As a con
sequence they were slow In reaching
the big tent today , and most of those
who did reach there in time looket
quite sleepy-eyed and drowsy. Those
of this class were not long , however
in rising to the demands of the occa
sion. The day began with the pre
sentation of the reports of commit
tees , and from the first these were
such as to demand earnest attention
from all present.
Temporary Chairman Ringdal
rapped the convention to order at 9:45
three-quarters of an hour after the
time set at last night's adjournment.
The committee oa credentials pre
sented its report , declaring that there
were no contesting delegations and
recommending that the vote of Mis
souri be increased by two votes , that
of Ohio by two votes and that of South
Dakota by three votes.
The report , which was read by Gov
ernor Poynter of Nebraska , was adopt
ed without a dissenting vote. The
minority report threatened last night
by Commltteeman Madden of Colorado
did not materialize.
The committee on permanent organ
ization reported the name of Thomas
M. Patterson , of Colorado for perma
nent chairman , T. H. Curran of Kan
sas , Leo Vincent of Colorado and E.
M. Deisher of Pennsylvania as perma
nent secretaries. Mr. Patterson's name
was greeted with great applause ,
which expanded into vociferous cheer
ing as he came to the front of the
platform.
In accepting the position of perma
nent chairman Mr. Patterson com
menced by stating that he would so
far as was in his power rule the con
vention with justice to all. He then
briefly sketched the history of the
populist party and the causes which
led up to its organization.
When the time arrived for choosing
candidates for president and vice pres
ident , Jones of Illinois assured the
convention that his state would give
Bryan a majority in November. Sen
ator Allen of Nebraska stepped for-
_
\\ord.
, "Mr. Chairman , " said he , amid per
fect silence , "I move that the rules
of this convention be suspended and
that William Jenuines Bryan be nom
inated by acclamation for president
of the United States. "
As * one man the convention arose ,
hats ] , canes , umbrellas , flags were
waved in the air amid deafening cheers
the * uproar being increased by the band
playing "Old Hundred. " Some enthu-
Ps
siatic delegate tore loose a large pic
ture of Bryan hanging in front of the
speaker and tied it to the table , where ,
cheering for Bryan , he held it while the
convention applauded frantically.
"I propose three cheers for William
J. Bryan , " cried George F. Washburn
of Masachusetts. These were given
v/ith a will and the convention then
quieted down.
"I announce the nomination by a
unanimous vote of William Jennings
Bryan for president of the United
States , " said Chairman Patterson as
soon ! as he could be heard. Another
cheer : greeted this announcement and
then the delegates settled n their seats
to contest over the question of a vice
presidential nomination.
There was some controversy regard
ing the vice presidential nomination.
Senator Allen arose. "Mr. Chairman , "
he said , "I desire to name Charles A.
Towne of Minnesota for the office of
vice president and to move that the
nomination be made unanimous. "
Mr. Schilling of Wisconsin then
moved that the rules be supended and
that Charles A. Towne be declared the
vice : presidential nominee by acclama
tion. The motion was carried , only
four men from Montana voting against
it.
