Manila, March 29. Gen. Mar Arthur's
dlvlHlon advanced nearly two miles
without encountering opposition yes
terday. On approaching Hulacan, a
town of 25,000 people, he halted, pre
paratory to attacking It.
The Americans suffered from the In
tense heat, which was 80 degrees on
the coast and fully 100 degrees In the
interior. But, In spite of the heat,
every man was eager to proceed to
ward the enemy.
detachment of ninety-six Filipino
prisoners was escorted Into Manila.
Their appearance aroused great Inter
eat as they were inarched from the
railroad depot to the prison.
The rebels have unloaded about five
hundred men from a train, half a mile
in front of Gen. MacArthur's forces,
with the object of reinforcing the Fili
pino garrisons at Hulacan and Gul
fuintn, on either side of the railroad
leading to Malolos.
The fact that the railroad is in oper
ation from here to our front, greatly
facilitates the transportation of sup
plies to the troops. Before the break
in the road was repaired the transpor
tation of supplies was very uncertain.
A battalion of the California regi
ment, which has been landed at En
rique, Island of Negros, has been re
ceived with every manifestation of Joy
upon the part of the natives.
The command of the Island of Negros
has been formally transferred from
Qen. Miller to Col. Van Valzan, of the
Eighteenth Infantry.
Spnnlah Steamer Taken'
Manila, March 29. The United States
gunboat Yorktown has arrived here
with the Spanish steamer Mundara,
owned by the Mondezona Company,
if this place. The steamer was cap
tured after a stiff chase In the Gulf
of LJngayen, 245 miles north.
When she was first sighted the Mun
iara was entering the gulf, but she
Beaded seaward. The Yorktown fired
two shots before the steamer was over
hauled. Dewey Wants More Ships.
Washington, March 29. Admiral
Dewey has asked the Navy Depart
ment for more ships and men, and
two or more additional vessels may be
sent to Manila. Every available offi
cer now on shore duty is to be ordered
on ship board.
The need of a larger naval force In
the Philippines is shown by Admiral
Dewey's report on the distribution of
Ma vessels, which have to be widely
scattered on account of the Immense
soast line of the Philippines. As the
army advances Into the Interior of
Luzon, it becomes more important that
x sufficient naval force should be main
tained In Manila Bay, and that there
ihoulil be a considerable force at the
naval station at Cavlte.
THE FIGHT AT MARILAO.
Gen, Otis Reports the llrilllnnt Charge of
the South Dakota Troops,
Washington, March 29. The follow
er dispatch has been received from
Gen. Otis:
'(Manila, March 28.
"Adjutant-General, Washington:
"MacArthur had severe fighting be
yond Marilao. Brilliant charge by
South Dakota, led by Frost, against
famed troops of Agulnaldo, brought
from Malolos. Repulsed enemy with
slaughter. Adjutant Lien and Lleuts.
Adams and Morrison and four enlisted
men of that regiment killed. Lieut.
McClelland and twenty-two enlisted
men wounded. Loss yesterday mostly
confined to this regiment.
Partial destruction of railroad,
which Is being rapidly repaired, im
pedes MacArthur's progress. Supply
railway trains have now reached Marl

Our small gunboats are in Bulacan

yesterday. They will relieve pressure

"Prince Lowensteln, with Wheaton's '
command, morning 2Cth, took refresh
ments to officers Second Oregon on fir

but advanced with line when it charged
insurgent lntrenchments. He was
- killed by enemy and a friend with him
wounded; his remains delivered to
Irleuds In cfly. OTI9." j
lltilnrsiu Second to Miinilii.
Ahead of the American forces the
most serious natural obstacle Is the
Bulacan Kiver, which Is In reality an
arm of Manila Bay, about a mile wide
ind very deep, and reaching straight
serosa the path of the advancing'
American forces. But to offset this
ien. Otls's dispatch of this morning
;onveys the cheering Information that
wr small gunboats are in the Bulacan
itlver, where great execution was done
-esterday, and where they will relieve
he pressureonMacArthur's front. This
n the Judgment of military authori
ses, Is a strategic, move of great ad--antage,
as the Bulacan River and the
its; elty of Bulacan may be the key to
rnenlng easy access to the Insurgent
-apltal, lying Just beyond.
Bulacan is a city of Importance sec
md only to Manila. It is the capital
f the province. It Is much larger and
itronger than the Insurgent capital,
Valeles, and with its broad and deep
-tver la 'a sort of gateway to the capi
at. Only two small towns, or pueblos,
leeave and Taal, lie between our
roeps and the river. There Is no doubt
ha bridge over the Bulacan Is de
itroyed, and this Is probably the bridge
o which Gen. Otis refers. It Is felt
hat some delay may be occasioned In
overcoming so Important a natural ob
tacle as the deep, wide river. Once
oross it, the city of liuJacan lies to
the left.
THE SAMPAN TROUBLE.
Nee ssltjr of Unanimity Among the Three
1'owern
Berlin, March 29. A corespondent
here has obtained from the highest au
thority at this capital the following
explanation of a feature of the Satnuan
question which has lately arisen. On
the report thnt the American govern
ment had cabled to its Admiral at
Samoa to act In accordance with the
decision of two out of three of the rep
resentatives of the Powers, the Ger
man government made earnest repre
sentation to the American Ambassa
dor, here, Mr. Andrew 1). White, that
the Berlin Treaty requires the concur
rence of the three Powers, nnd called
attention to the dangers which were
sure to nrlse If there was anything like
a violation of the treaty.
The American government made a
frank and conciliatory answer, which
has caused much satisfaction. It
recognized the necessity for unanimity
upon the part of all three Powers un
der the treaty, as a condition of any
settled policy or permanent action, and
declared the Admiral was only author
ized to act In agreement with the ma
jority of the representatives of the
Powers In a case of emergency which
absolutely does not admit of delay, but
that In such a case as the ratification
or adjustment, the unanimous vote of
the three Powers must be Fught at
the first possible moment, and no per
manent arrangement can be made
without such unanimity.
The American government, It is an
nounced, cabled Its representatives In
Samoa to pursue the most friendly and
conciliatory policy towards the German
representatives and German Interests,
carefully avoiding everything likely to
be misconstrued or to create ill-will.
In consequence of the stories regard
ing Mataafa having sanctioned sectar
ian tyranny, the German government
assured Mr. White that all Its influence
would be exerted against interference
with the religion of any sect.

The Kennedy Murder Trial.
New York, March 29. In the trial of
Dr. Samuel J. Kennedy for the murder
of Emeline C. Reynolds, at the Grand
Hotel, on the night of August 15, 1898,
In the Criminal Court Branch of the
Supreme Court, before Justice Will
iams, Detective-Sergeant Carey iden
tified a olece of lead pipe and a piece
of an iron rod as having been found
by him In the cellar of Kennedy's
house at New Dorp, S. I. These ex
actly correspond In diameter with the
iron rod and lead pipe (the former in
serted In the latter) which formed the
bludgeon found in the room where the
Reynolds woman was killed. Carey
testified that he found in the defend
ant's cellar a cold-chisel and a vise, to
which small pieces of lead adhered.
The teeth of this vise exactly fitted
some indentations in the leaden
bludgeon.
A clerk testified to selling Kennedy
a straw hat Identical with the one
found in the murdered woman's room.
Tammany Wi)l Fight.
New York, March 29. There Is dan
ger that the hundreds of officeholders
who lost their positions when Tam
many came Into power will be unduly
elated over the action of Supreme
Court Justice Scott In ordering the
reinstatement of six men discharged
by Fire Commissioner Scannell, Char
ity Commissioner Keller and Water
Commissioner Dalton.
It was stated at the office of the
Corporation Counsel to-day that in
stead of several hundred men being
affected by the decision, there were
only twenty. Of these the Corporation
Counsel admitted six should be rein
stated. The cases of the other four
teen will be brought to the courts. The
six referred to all come within the find
ing of the Court of Appeals In the
Fleming case, which really had nothing
to do with the question of the submis
sion of the rules of the local Civil Ser
vice Commission to the State Board.

The Metropolitan Street Railway
Co. Offers to Disc a Tunnel.
OFFER TAKEN SERIOUSLY
Frnpnsed to Rim front the ttntlery te
Klnitli il;e and Transfer to the Surface
Line W nuts a I'erpetiinl flintier and
Will I'.ty I lvo Per Cent of the Gross I
Iter ipts When It mil Is raying.
New York. March 29. The metropo
lis Is considerably stirred up by the offer
made to the Hapld Transit Commission
by the Metropolitan Street Hallway
Company, present owners of the
Broadway und Second Avenue lines,
to build an underground railway the
length of Manhattan Inland, and to run
the same us a rapid transit road.
Senator Stranahan will some time
this week offer at Albany amendments
to the Hapld Transit act which will
give the New York City Hopld
Transit Commissioners authority to
accept a proposition for the build
ing of the underground railway by
a new coporatlon to be known as
the Tunnel Company. This com
pany is to be formed by large stock
holders In the Metropolitan Street
Hallway Company. The entire route
to Klngsbrldge would begin with two
tracks at the Battery up to the end
of Elm street, and then four tracks
up Fourth avenue to Forty-second
street, to Broadway, to 104th street. At
this point, in the Hapld Transit Conv
mlssloners' plans, the four tracks 1
separate, two going up Eleventh ave
nue to Klngsbrldge, and two turning
east, running under Lenox avenue and
across the Harlem at 138th street,
thence on elevated tracks, skirting
Bronx Park to the city line.
Should the offer be accepted the
Tunnel Company will begin work with
in three months on the main route
from the Battery to 104th street, and
complete the main line and the Kings
bridge route from 104th street north
within three years. The company
say that when the West Side or Kings
bridge route is paying S per cent, upon
the actual cost of construction and
equipment they will Immediately begin
work on the East Side section and
complete it within two years. The
Hapld Transit Commission Is to deter
mine when the 5 per cent. Is earned.
The 6 per cent, of cost in construction
and equipment is to include the cost
of all private property purchased for
connections and stations, together with
a fair proportion of the cost of any
power holme, machinery or other plant
constructed or acquired for the Joint
use of the Tunnel Company and the
Metropolitan Street Railway Company.
Any differences of opinion as to cost
arising between the Tunnel Company
and the city of New York is to be set
tled by three arbitrators, one repre
senting the Tunnel Company, one for
the Rapid Transit Commission and the
third to be selected by the two first
named.
It Is provided that the Tunnel Com
pany may lease the road In perpetuity
to the Metropolitan Company. The lat
ter company shall have the right to
run its present surfuce cars into the
tunnels from any of Its routes, so that
continuous car passage, as well as a
transfer system, may be provided. So
that this may be done, the Metropoli-
tan Company may provide stations
east and west in the city, where trans-
fers will be good for continuous track
connections over surface routes and
thence on the underground route
northwest or northeast.
The Tunnel Company asks that It
shall have free of cost, other than its
franchise tax, the exclusive subway
rights In all the tunnels for Its own
use or for rental. It also asks that
the city give It free of cost adequate
station room under City Hall Park and
at the Junction of Broadway with Sev
enth, Eighth, Columbus and Amster
dam avenues. Finally the company
asks that its real and personal prop
erty forming part of the railway routes
shall be exempt from taxes until it has
paid 6 per cent, on the cost of con
struction and equipment.
For the privileges named above the
company offers to do many notable
things. It agrees that each year the
city shall receive 5 per cent, of the
gross receipts from the operation of
the underground route, this 5 per cent-
'ZX''."""
are the operating expenses and the 5
per cent, on the cost of building. The
earnings of the road are to be ascer
tained by taking all the fares received
by the separate business of the road
and by an equal division of the Joint
business between the Metropolitan
surface lines and the underground
road.
The company further offers to run
trains for two miles below Forty-second
street at the rate of twenty-five
miles an hour, nnd nowhere below
Ninety-sixth street nt a less rate than
twenty miles an hour. It will carry
passengers from the Battery to Kings
bridge in thirty-five minutes.
The company is to charge 10 cents
fare on the express trulns, which will
Include free transfer to any surface
line operated by the Metropolitan
Company. On the non-express trains
the fair will be 5 cents, and a trans
fer to Metropolitan cars will be pro
vided for 3 cents additional. Similar
ly a passenger on a Metropolitan sur
face car, having paid 6 cents, will ob
tain transportation on the Ropld
Transit route, except express trains,
for 3 cents additional. This Is the sub-
i 8tanPe f the new "'l't'"-

TO WELCOME THE RALEIGH.
Mayor Van Wjek Will Appoint HeceptlO'i
Committee of 1UO Itlzen.
New York, v March 29. Mayor Van
Wyck, In accordance with resolutions
passed by the Municipal Assembly, will
appoint a committee of at least one
hundred representative citizens, who
will plan for a reception to the t'nlted
States steamship Raleigh and her nfll
cers and crew when she arrives here
from Manila. The resolutions, which
were offered by Alderman McCall, are
as follows:
"Whereas, the victory of that ster
ling American sailor, Admiral George
Dewey, at Manila, on May 1. 1S98, sent
a thrill of patriotic pride through the
American heart and was a further
earnest that the American Navy of the
present day Is amply able to preserve
the laurels won In earlier wars by
Jones, Barry, Lawrence, Decatur, Hull,
Perry. Stockton and Forragut; and
"Whereas, The U. 8. S. Halelgh, one
of the lighting cruisers that partici
pated In tlu; magnificent victory over
Montojo's fleet in Asiatic waters. Is the
first vessel to return and Is rapidly ap
proaching New York city, the great
metropolis of the American Nation,
and a fitting and appropriate welcome
should be given to Capt. J. B. Coghlan,
his officers and crew of the said steam
er Haleigh; therefore, be It
"Hesolved, That we, the members of
the Municipal Assembly of the city of
New York, hereby respectfully request
Hon. Robert A. Van Wyck, Mayor of
this city, to appoint such committee
or committees as in his opinion shall
be deemed appropriate to extend a
cordial and fitting welcome to the
Raleigh, her commander, officers and
crew, and to take such further action
as may be essential to make said re-
ceptlon a matter of civic pride to this
commonwealth of Greater New York."
Editor Taylor of lloston Globe Sued.
Boston, March 29. James C. Jordan,
eldest son of the lnte Eben D. Jordan
of the firm of Jordan, Marsh Co.,
has brought suit In the United States
Circuit Court here against Gen.
Charles H. Taylor and against Gen.
Taylor. Eben D. Jordan, Jr., and
Henry O. Nichols, executors and trus
tees under the will of Eben D. Jordan,
who died on Nov. 15, 1895.
It Is well known that when Gen. Tay
lor assumed control of the Globe. In
the early eighties, Eben D. Jordan,
Sr., furnished nearly all the capital to
make the paper successful and became
Its largest stockholder. James C. Jor
dan says In his bill of equity that soon
after his father's death certain shares
of the Globe Newspaper Company were
sold by the executors of the estate
Taylor, Jordan and Nichols to one of
themselves, Gen. Taylor. He alleges
that this transfer of stock was illegal,
and asks that the transfer be declared
Invalid, nnd also that Gen. Taylor
should render to the executors an ac
count of the proceeds from the stock
since its transfer to him.
Illennlal Sessions Killed In New York.
Albany, March 29. A motion to take
the biennial sessions amendment reso
lution from the table was defeated yes
terday by a vote of 25 ayes to 24 noes,
the motion being declared lost, in ac
cordance with an agreement made last
week that unless the supporters of the
amendment mustered twenty-six votes,
a majority of the Senate, It would be
regarded as lost for this session. Those
who voted for Mr. Ellsworth's motion
were twenty-four Republicans and
i one Democrat (Mr,
McCarren of
Democrats and
! Kings). Twenty-one
three Republicans (Malby, Brackett
and Willis) voted against the motion.
Senator Graney would have voted with
them if he had been present, making
the vote a tie. This action kills the
biennial sessions amendment. If it la
ever brought up again It will have to
pass two successive Legislatures.
Life ANMesnment Era Ended.
Boston, March 29. The House has
', passed to be engrossed without any de
I bate the bill for the purpose of putting
an end to the assessment life-insurance
companies In Massachusetts by
letting them into the field of the old
line companies "by the back door," as
' it was put by one of the assessment
', officials before the committee at one
of the hearings. The bill Is known as
the Dewey bill, from the member of
that name from Westfleld, who had
most to do with It, though It Is under
, stood that some of the ideas are those
of Commissioner Cutting himself. The
if" has completed the passage of both
Senate and House without a word of
debate, and there is no reason to
doubt that Gov. Woli'ott will sign it.
Therefore the end has come of assess
ment life insurance In Massachusetts,
after it had nourished for about thirty
years.
Assessment Association In Connecticut
New Haven, March 29. The annual
report of Commissioner of Insurance
Betts, part second, on life, accident,
fidelity, and surety companies, Is out.
The Commissioner renews his severe
criticisms of the assessment associa
tions In whose large decrease of out
standing Insurance from $730,751,118 to
$6(i6.3L0.J9 he sees signs of "early dis
integration." He disapproves of the
"stipulated premium" plan of relief for
such companies ns a "half-way meas
ure," and as meaning a condition of
affairs as bad, if not worse, than the
original one. He predicts as probable
much Buffering and loss from lapses by
the older policy-holders. The large
gain by the old-line companies is
largely due, he says, to the rise of se
curities In the market, and he notes
with approval the setting nslde by
those corporations of large amounts to
provide against the reduction of the
rate of Interest.
Antl-Ouny Men Combine,
