insurgent headers, With Their Men
and Arms, Continue to Surrender.
Manila, April 9.—Although the offi
cials are uncommunicative, nevertheless
it is said Aguiualdo signed the peace
manifesto this morning. Chief Justice
Arelauo drafted the document. Agui
ualdo strongly objected to two 1 clauses
of the manifesto, aud considerable ar
gument was required to overcome his
objections. leader of
Colonel Aba, the insurgent
Zambales province, with 13 officers, 83
men, 9a rifles aud 4,000 cartridges, sur
rendered to Lieutenant Colonel Daniel
Goodrell, commanding the marines sta
tioned at Oiongapo, ou Sugbig bay.
General Malvar, with 300 men and as
many rifles, is expected to surrender
shortly at Silaug, iu Cavite province.
SEABOARD AIR LINE ROAD
Ituctlcnl C Images Kxpected Under the
New Management.
Richmond, April 10.—Immediate aud
perhaps radical changes aro expected to
ensue when John M. Barr takes charge
of the Seaboard Air Line as vice presi
dent ami general manager. His appoint
ment is recognized by railroad men as
one of the most significant and im
portant made in a long time ou any
southern road.
The development of the policy he will
pursue is awaited with some interest.
It is believed that the large holders of
tho Seaboard securities lmve not beeu
satisfied with the management of the
road in the past uor its earnings. Presi
dent Williams has said that the ratio of
operating expenses was too great aud
must be reduced.
It is believed that under Mr. Barr’s
management the property will be
strengthened and improved, and that
valuable traffic connections may be
formed. Mr. Barr’s appointment is be
lieved to mean great things for the fu
ture cf the road.
The board of directors are iu session
in New York today. Details will be ar
ranged at this meeting for a new #10,
000.000 collateral loan. 5.000 new cars
will be ordered and the dare for dissolv
ing the pool iit which the #13,000,000 of
4 per cent bonds of the railway are de
posited will also probably be fixed, and
the arrangements for merging the Ral
eigh aud Gaston aud the Scab >ard aud
Roanoke companies into the Seaboard
Air Line will be perfected.
LABOR INDORSES MOVEMENT
Alabama Union Mm Urged .to Vote
i or (Iiiiivi in Ion.
Birmingham, Ala., April 10.—The
Labor Advocate, publi.-lied in this city,
the organ of organized labor in Ala
bama, has come out with a strong in
dorsement of the movement for a con
stitutional convention, aud calls upon
all union labor orders to support the
movement and veto tho Democratic
ticket.
The action iff the Democratic state
executive committee aud nominees at
their session in Birmingham last week,
in pledging themselves to live up to the
Democratic pledges as contained in tho
party platform and not to incorporate
anything into the new constitution that
will abridge the rights of the laboring
classes, is the direct cause of the Labor
Advocate’s action, which is in the na
ture of a response of organized labor to
the action taken by Democracy’s repre
sentatives.
WORKING ON THE SABBATH
Miuister Complains About a Lotion
Factory Machinist.
Columbia, S. C., April 10.—A minis
ter in a cotton mill town in the eastern
part of the state has complained to the
attorney general of a machinist working
on Sunday and wants to know if the
corporation General could not Bellinger be punished.
Attorney wrote that
the law permitted cotton mills to have
work of necessity or life done on Sunday
and that a jury would have to be the
judge as to the necessity. Being a crim
inal act, the mechanic would have to be
indicted unless it. was shown that an
officer directed she work done, and then
the jury would have to decide ns to the
fact of the wont L-e.nir uune-ssarv < If tl.'f

BLIND TIGERS IN WAYCROSS
Druggist Heavily Klnod Kor Celling
Whisky.
Wayckoss, (ia., April 8.—The arrest
of A. P. Fries, a druggist doing business
ou Albany n«uue, upon the charge of
selling whisky, and the line of #400 im
posed upon him by Judge Williams of
the city court, was but the first move iu
what seems to be a sensation in Way
cross.
For some time past it has been very
evident that, notwithstanding the high
license ordinance of the city and the
stringent prohibition laws of the coun
ty, it required but little effort and no
strategy to secure liquor by those whose
customs aud habits demanded it. The
frequent occurrences of intoxication
that were to be seen recently aroused
the authorities to the fact that “blind
tigers” existed aud the officers were
given instructions to bring the proprie
tors of such places to justice. of Fries aud
The first case was that
the heavy fine inflicted has made a cold
chill run down the back of those whom
the finger cf suspicion has marked as
among those who will be asked to
answer the same charge. While noth
ing definite can bo learned of what evi
dence has been secured, it is rumored
that sufficient testimony will be given
before the grand jury to secure the in
dictment of several others.
CANDIDATES BEFORE JURY
Were Asked How Much Money They
S-pent on Election.
Savannah, April G. —Tlie grand jury
held a special session for the purpose of
investigating the use of money iu the
recent election. All four of the caudi
dates and some of their leading support
ers were before the body.
The candidates were requested to tell
bow much they gave up lor the cam
paign fund, and they complied with the
request. Major Screven aud Mr. Wells
acknowledged to giving up $1,000 each,
but were unable to say how it was
spent. Mr. Thomson did not give up
anything, haviug the credit of winning
his election without money. What sum
Captain MeAlpbin acknowledged to
could uot be learned, but it must have
been a large one, as he was one of the
most liberal spenders that ever entered
a Chatham county election.
It is understood that the grand jary
did not get very definite information on
the subject of how rim mousy was spent-.

Declares That He Is Not la Kace For
United States Senate.
Atlanta, April 6.— Ex-Governor W.
J. Northen, who has just returned to
the city, was much put oat by the pub
lished statements to the effect that he
would probably be a candidate for
United States senator.
Governor Northen said that by the in
ferences drawn from his dispatch sent
from Lake Park, ho had been put iu the
attitude of deceiving the public. He
felt that he had been explicit enough in
denying the report as it bad been made
to him, and that that should have put
an end to the matter.
“The idea of my being a candidate
was news to me, as I stated in my re
ply to the dispatches addressed to me i t
Lake Park,” Governor Northen said,
“and in fact such a tiling had never en
tered my head.”

Holland's Hat, Trap.
Dublin, Ga , Aprils.—C. C. Holland,
who lives ueai Dublin, has invented a
unique aud at the same time very effec
tive rat trap. His method of catching
rodents is to take an ordinary wasbpot
and fill it about half fnU of water. On
top of this he, places enough cotton seed
to hide the water from view. At eacli
end of the pot he places an upright
piece of wood, across the top of which
he places a flatter mill. Directly over
the flutter-mill he places a piece of
cheese or burned meat. The rats, in
order to get at the bait, run ou tho fiut
ter-milL which turn.-, over, throwing
them into iho water. Mr. Holland bv
this method cafiglit five rats Monday

Which Might Hollow Should Euro

Washington, April 9.—The state de
partment has heard further from Mr,
RockhUl, our special commissioner at
Peking, touching the effort making to
reach an agreement respecting tho in
demnity to be demanded from the Chi
nese government. Mr. Rockhill’s pres
ent effort, acting under directions from
Secretary Hay, is to induce the minis
ters of other powers to keep down the
total of their claims to the amount
which the financial experts, headed by
Sir Robert Hurt, have decided to be
within the ability of China to pay. The
United States government has felt that
on no occasion should the total indem
nity claim exceed £40,000,000 sterliug,
and has steadfastly sought to mako that
figure the outside limit of tho claim.
For itself, the state department claims
#35,0i)0,000 indemnity, aud it has sup
plied Mr. Rockhill with data for the
publication of an itemized account
showing the expenditures made by the
government of tho United States iu the
transportation of our military contin- there
gent to China, its maintenance
aud the just claims of the missionaries
who were American citizens and suffer
ed in property aud person from the out
break.
Willing to flit It Down.
Iu its anxiety to avoid oppressing

officials are confident that me. formi Li

Sian, iu Shou Si province, would never
have occurred. Mr. Rockhill has satis
fied himself that the Chinese govern
ment was absolutely sincere when it
pleaded inability to punish in this the great full
general and demanded Prince Tung the
measure by powers.
It is thought here that more modest
demands could have been met by the
Chinese government and the rebellion
averted. The indemnity question also
has consumed an unconscionable length
of time, and if it had been settled sev

ent difficulty, it is believed, would have
been impossible. of the offi
It is the hope, therefore,
cials here that Tung Fu Sian’s move
ment will stimulate tho lagging minis
ters at Peking to final action. If it does
not, if the court is obliged to flee from
Sian Fu, and the great Yang Tse vice
roys are overslaughed by General Tung
Fa Sian, as seems probable, then all
China will be pluuged in anarchy, in
the estimate of the officials here.
