AUCTI
This auction is for raising money quickly we don't like auctions , but we
would rather have an auction and sacrifice our profit , or even more on $25,000
worth of our $75,000 , stock than to , perhaps , loose the whole stock by being
unable to pay our indebtedness while we only want to raise $25,000 we are
not going to limit the articles to be sold , but on the contrary give you the op
portunity of selecting any watch , ring , chain , clock , umbrella , pocket book , piece
of jewelry , silverware , cut glass , bric-a-brac , etc , , in the store , and Col. J. F.
Turner of Chicago will sell it to the highest bidder. Seats provided and every
polite attention shown the ladies , who are invited to call an examine goods.

the Filipino troops were resting and many
ot the rillplno officers were at tbe theater
on Saturday night nnd were arrested shortly
after the outbreak.
The bombardment of the dofcnsolces towns
ot Malnte , Pnco , Bnntn Ana and Malabon
caused frightful slaughter among tbe women
and children. It Is estimated that 4,000 of
them were killed. The Filipino troops ,
whoso toss was comparatively small ,
tenaciously held their positions.
The conduct of the Americana lu the sub
urb * was outrageous. They compelled the
Inhabitants to leave their houses and then
shot thorn down , regardless of sex.
There Is a reign ot terror at Manila.
Civilians are shot tn the streets without
being challenged. The Hello commissioners
arrived at Manila nt the Invitation of the
Americans and when they were starting to
return the American soldiers were looting
and pillaging. Agulnaldo sent commission-
era to Inquire ot General Otis the reason
for the hostilities , offering summary pun
ishment It the Filipinos -were found to be
at fnult. He received no satisfaction.
The Americans are apparently determined
on a war of extermination , similar to their
doing in Carolina In November , violating
the rights oC mankind and of. civilized war
fare nnd committing a monstrous outrag
on civilization. There IB no doubt that the
action of General Otla was a political move
to Influence the vote of the United Stutos
senate , fearing an exposure of corruptions.
Four vessels are leaving Manila to bombard
Hollo.

The procceslou filed through crowded city

Carlos III street , which leads direct to the
cemetery. Hero clouds of dust arose , choking
the women on foot who , nevertheless ,
plodded persevcrlngly alcmg , their black
clothing whitened und the- dust Ijlng thick
ou ttielr cj clashes and hair.
The coinn was borne Into Ihe chapel at the
cemetery at 4:30 : o'clock nnd placed In front

ing priest Intoned the service and sprinkled

ice In the chapel General Brooke , General
