INSURGENT JUNTASARE GROWING ACTIVE

General Kobbe Opens Twenty Ports inSouthern Luzon—City Officials' in Gen­

eral MacArthur’s District R esort' to Treason and Perfidy.'1 . • ^

MANILA, JIarch 10.—General Otis considers Manila the most troublesome center,In the situation;today. The insur­gent jun ta here, in conjunction with that. in Hongltong, is growing active. The military authorities have been forced to put a stop to Mabln.i’s intercourse with the public. The local and foreign press •considers his recent utterances, calculated to incite the Filipinos to, a . continued. re­volt and prejudical to American control.

Flores, who has ju st arrived here, sayB, he comes trusting to American leniency and th a t he would not. have dared come to M anila:if 'Spain wore yet In control. H e cherishes the hopes and aspirations which actuated him" when in the field and ' desires,to watch.congressional action up­on the question of the Philippines. The Insurgents, he says, do not expect to van­quish the Americans, but are maintaining a resistance with the idea of forcing con­gress to accord to-thein the best possible terms.

A number of representative insurgent leaders from different parts of Luzon, have recently been in conference in Ma­nila. Some have been placed under ar­rest, but the. others thus fa r have not been interfered w ith .,•- Louis Spitzel, head of the firm o f Louis Spitzel,& Co.,. contractors to the Chinese government and himself a suspected fili­buster, came from Hongkong to Manila lost week and was. temporarily detained in custody on suspicion. I t is asserted upon good authority th a t three loads of arms and ammunition have’recently been la n d e d -on the east cc-nst of Luzon. Cap­tain Taylor of the Thlrtyrninth regiment recently captured 12 new Mausers near Calttinba.' . ’

Reports are current here of active rebel reorganization in the province of Morong, where tiie Insurgent leaders are said to be assisted by prominent, Spanish residents.

, Inhabitants of this province -who are now in Manila have been advised not to re-

,tiim to their homes, but to remain under ’ the protection of the Americans.

I t is also reported that the rebels are reorganizing in the province of Zambalos under ilascardo. Brigands are commit­ting atrocities in the province of Nuevn Ecija, where they have murdered ,20 na­tives and Chinamen. Eight other mur- der*-hleve-4)een -committed1 ncar^^Tarlae.-

;The Nueva Ecija insurgents are heavily; taxing local traders an.dj, farmers, with: the results that buBlness Iq paralyzed and there is a general scarcity of food.

The funds for maintaining this guerril­l a warfare a re collected from the'various

-the Americans'■ or not, even including Manila. ■■

In 1 the province of Albay th e insurgents .have ceased harusBlng the Americans ow­ing, it,Js reported, to a lack of apm ual- ;tI6n, ' but 'they continue ravaging the ^cdlihtryBide; Btiriiiug aiid looting. Ttie^ |nat|ves are tiring of this sort of ithing and threaten ,to ,turn against ,the maraud­ers. Already the townppeqple o f L^gas- -pl, Albhy and'Ponzol are Slowly retii'rh- Ing to their homes; ' : 1; jMnjor. Allen of the iForty-thlrd regi­m ent has vbefn j appointed .m ilitary. gov- ernpr,of the i»l{ind.of Samay, where ,Luk- ;ban,‘ thie/form’ef leader of the rebels In th a t’locality. iB still in-the monntntnB.

opened Ib nonprodjuctive and apparently nonconsuming. Owing to the political Conditions of the tlast. 12-months products accumulated during the blockade: ThfeSe ]wi)li be, shipped, to Manila, and then the portB .wiU be empty. . . ~

Evidence accumulates of the treason >iand-perfidy of :the municipal presidents J n ,the proyinces. of General MacArthur’s district. The!presidents of several tawna It^Lepanto andvUnioii: provinces have de­clined to continue their positions, saying that, they do not desire any further.iden­tification with the Americans. Travel between the towns garrisoned by the Americaus is 'becoming more dangerous. All wagon' 'trains must- be ebcorted by heavy guards In order to Insure their safety. ■■■ -;-.-'r

. The faeilngogalnst the polygAmlat Rob­erta of Utah, which aroused the nation from one end to tbe other and,restated!In his exclusion from, congress,'has called up some thoughts of . the days when efforts were made byjthe early Mormons to proselyte this section. . From about the year 1887 to i860 the very founders of the Morman faith visited the section of the state to the east aud southeast of Mercer county and they made many converts. Joseph Smith, the ’founder; Benjamin Winchester, one of his early disciples from New York state; W illiam Smith, brother of Joseph; John Taylor, Iatfe head of the Mormons in Utah, and Sidney Iligdph also, were all, there, and Mercer county was visited by their,, zealona,missionaries, and a number of converts were made by

fthem In the eastern part. About ‘i e year |1842' they held a campmeetlng In the apple orchard .belbnglng to the tavern property :at ; Hamilton Square, but met with no success; but In what is now the eastern, part pf Washington township and near Allentown they were more success­ful, and farther to tbe southeast Benjamin W inchester made over fifty .converts and a large number joined the 'society and they finally built a church at Hornerstbwn, which afterward went down. • r ■-.. In the m ill pond which nsfed to be known a i Silver’s Mills, and later Carson’s Mills, about three miles east of Newtown, In Washington towashlp, a' number- of converts to Mormonism were baptized, about fifty years ago. Many persons were present to see the rite administered one day, and on the bridge was a party bent on having some fan. They had secured a good-sized calf, which they held among them, and In the midst of the ceremony i f baptlsip by lm m erslonby the Mormon preacher they ' threw the calf Into ; the

■ MANILA, March 19 —General Otis considers ^Manila the most troublesome center in the situation today. The insur- gent iun ta here,'in conjunction with that. In. Hongkong, is growing active. The military authorities have been forced to put a stop to Mabinl’s intercourse. with the public. The local and foreign' press

•considers his recent utterances calculated to Incite the Filipinos to a. continued re­volt and prejudical to American Control.

Flores, who has juBt arrived here, says be comes trusting, to American leniency nnd th a t he. would not have dared come to Manila If ‘Spain, were yet. In control.

1 WHAT PUERTO RICO RAISES.■ , A report m ade by the W ar Department

by Gen. G. W. Davis, governor of .Puerto Bico, gives many interesting and timely points concerning the , products of the Island. Only two stato9 In the union are smaller la area, though quite a Dumber have fewer Inhabitants. About ohe-elgbth of Puerto Rico, or 800.000 acres, is under Cultivation, Including 123,000 acres devoted to coflee, 61,000 to sugar cane and-4,200 to tobacco.; Thei rest is taken np With maize, beans, rice and native fruits,. The acresge is surprisingly small for an Island that has been settled so long and that has a population of nearly 1,000,000. Only a quarter of the land suited to coflee has been used for this product, and tobac­co also mlght.be much more extensively raised. Tlie fruit Interest Is backward.- Oranges, bananas, pineapples and limes m ight be grown for export, but are culti­vated only for the home demand. Under the Spanish regime Puerto Rico just drowsed along, from hand 'to month, and this condition can not be changed In a day. , • • v . . v '

In Gov. Davis’ opinion, Puerto Bico must look to sugar, tobacco and coflee for exports in the Immediate future. The maximum of sugar exports was 170,000 tons in 1879. .Last year’s sugar .crop was 60,000 tons, in 1897 the tobacco raised amounted to 6.255,953 potinds, and In the same year the exports o f coffee were 51,- 710,997 poundB. The, basis for business at best is • not large and the need of tlie -Island |p r special consideration Is appa­rent. Wbat, It' has! to sell is limited In quantity, and favorable trade regulations are requisite If that Tittle is to return a profit. Gov. Davis remarks tbat 'unless' congress affords relief..'.‘fcjie paralysis of Puerto Bico must continue and the poor and helpless, In increasing number, must

, be fed by us or they will starve to death.” The house has already- followed the President’s recommendation to re tum .to Puerto Rico the $2,000,000 collected on Its exports to this country, and the Senate will uot long withhold Its approval of the

The United States is rapidly becoming a ‘‘creditor nation.’’-, W ith the pjosperlty brought about through a system of pro­tective tariff and a declaration for sound money, has come an enormous reduction in o«r indebtedness abroad, and now our business men are actually loaning money to other parts of the world. A $25,000,000

• io a a -b ^ l]u s t ,bMa made by.N ew York capitalists to Russia, One especially In­teresting feature of this Is the fact that

,uch of the money Is to be expended in ,e United States fo rthe purchase of coal,

agricultural machinery, railway cars and rails, and other products of labor which are to be sent to Russia, $2,000,000 being placed' In St. Louis for tho purchase of cars, another million dollars In Chicago for agricultural Implements, and still more in Pennsylvania for railway engines and materials, thus benefittlng labor In the 'United States as well as capital. In addi­tion to this actual loan,- It Is asserted tbat United States financiers offered to take the entire loan which the British govern­m ent recently put upon the market.

LOCRENCO MARQUES, March 19. — A dispatch -from M afeking,. dated M arch 10, says:

“The' garrison is hpldlng Its own., Wa havo heard numerous rumors that the siege ivlll .be raised, but. so fa r that 1b not the case. W e are pegging along pa­tiently on quarter rations, supplemented by the occasional capture of cattle.

“ Our homemade gun erratically bom­bards the Boer trenches. Horrible storlea are curren t that the Boers aro inflicting nameless tortures upon captured native runners. These may ‘ not be true, but

.they ‘are1' tending -to1 luflanie native pas­sions to such an extent that It may soon be impossible to hold the .natives in check. ■' , ' 1 i

“Owing'to the Boers having deliberate­ly bombarded the native stadt;' which la fu ll'o f women and .children, Colonel Bad- en-Powell has armed the, natives, but he has only allowed them to .ac t on the de­fensive, although they have clamored to be. allowed to go o a t and a ttack a t the point of the assegai. They will be pre*. vented aa long as possible from inflicting reprisals on the Boers.”

R elief Nearing M afeltloe.C A PE TOW N, March 19.—T he mount­

ed force from Kimberley proceeding to the relief ' of , Mafeking has arrived a t W arrenton. As the force neared Wlnd- Borton the Boers evacuated tKe town, blowing up the bridge. I t is reported th a t th e rebels who refuBed to accim pany the TrahsVaalers when the la tter

St. Patrick’s day was celebrated with extraordinary enthusiasm ' throughout South Africa. In reply to a message from the Irishmen of Cape Town the queen sent the following:

JT have always felt confident th a t the spirit, courage and allegiance which Jiave distinguished the Irish BOldiers ih the face of the enemy would ba shared by

’th e ir brethren- In th e colony in support of the authority of my government.”

The Mafeking relief column, Colonels Drummond and Peakman commanding, had a sharp engagement a t fourteen Streams. The British succeeded In driv­ing the Boers off. They had only a few casualties. .Pole-CareTr Returns to Bloem fontein

‘ published reports tb a t tb e r e havo been conferences with a view to tlie dlBpntcb of additional warships and, United States flold[et8 to China and th a t newB of the Bravest character had beeh received from Wo United ,States minister to China. Thero is said to bo' no fear entertained that any serious danger to American in torests is impending.

I t is suggeited th a t 'th e published re­ports have as their basis the recent action of the navy'departm ent, mnde public al the. time. In ' directing Admiral' Watson, who Is in command of the naval forcei In the Philippines, to send- a warship to the port of Xaka, a t the m o n th o f th e Pieho rlvfir. This was d o n o 'as 'a result of the representations made to the state department by M inister Cohger, who re­ported that serious attacks had been made upon the American missions in Shangtung by the “Boxers,” a powerful and numerous antiforeign longue of Chi­nese.

The Ontlooic Does Not Favor Early AdJoornment; !; 1 ■

ALBANY, March 19.—Although March 81 Is the date’decided upon for the final adjournment of the legislature, it Is very probable th a t'th e session will be prolong­ed until the first week In April, If not latep. The assembly, which' adopted a resolution fixing the date,of fipal adjourn-

-tnent fo r-the 31st inst.,'.has been rushina legislation through with a view of carry­ing out its resolution,, and although the daily calendars have been large they have been taken up day by day and gone over. The -senate, however,'-has not evi­denced a similar determination, nlthough that body during the past weqk has held long. Bessions in an effort to get as many bills as possible off the calendar. The assembly resolution fixing1 the date ot adjournment Btill rests with , the finance committee, and although .they have held several meetings. during the last week, they have taken 'no action upon It.

T h e .' senate on Friday attempted to teach Senator Ellsworth, the Republican leader of the upper house, a lesson by moving a close call of the senate after he as well as a number of-other members ot th a t body had left; the senate chamber. -

The mortgage tax bill, which seeks tc Impose a tax of one-half of 1 per cent on all real estate.’mortgageBjarid which Is one of the most important measures now before the legislature; promises to pre­cipitate a lively debate when called up In the senate this week. I f the brief dis­cussion on Wednesday Is any Indication of tbat to. come, amendments tb the bill may be expected from; Beveral sources. Senator Mitchell at. th a t tiriie moved to amend the bill so as to exempt mortgages bearing interest a t the ra te of 3 per cent

. instead of 4, • as Is provided In tho bill. This amendment was adopted by a close vote and stands In the icommlttee of the whole, but is subject to a later action of the senate when the bill is again taken up in general orders. Tho amendment as offered Includes In the list' of taxable mortgages those, of the New York Cen­tra l and other corporations bearing Inter­est a t a rate between 3 and .4 per cent.

Senator Coggeshall will also offer an amendment to exempt real estate, mort­gages bearing interest a t the ra te bf 0 per. cent or less, excepting those of trust companies or corporations.

Mr. Allds, the leader of the majority, says th a t the assembly will be in shape to adjourn "on the 31st inst. Important measures affecting New York city, which called for protracted debate havfe' heen' disposed of during the past week, and the calendars have been cleared'up daily, which will give the bouse a fairly good field In w hich 'to pass local bills-during th e 'p resent week.
