TTi Native Are la Dltre and Are Try ing to Secure Food aad Ammunition From Maalla American l'rleoaer Are Well Treated Two More Keglinent ol Volunteer Start Home From Manila. MANILA, Sept. 4. Many Spanish prisoners are escaping from the Filipi nos and bringing Into the American lines stories of hard treatment. They agree that the Filipinos are exceeding ly thort of rations and thut a large sec tion of their troops Is reduced to the usn of homemade black powder. The natives are trying every echem2 to get food and munitions from Manila. Dally arrests are made for attempts to smuggle contraband of war through the American lines. In one cas a rag. coe, with a cargo of bamboo poles was overhauled and the poles were found full of rice. The insurgents have a wholesom re spect for the British, on account of sev eral threats of British warships to bom bard their towns unless the lights of British subjects are respected. The British vessels, the Laeson and the Nero, were driven by strtS4 of weather into the harbor of Dngupan, the northern terminus of the Dugupan railway. The crowd were Imprisoned, but on their protesting that they were British subjects the Insurgent authori ties permitted one man, Edwards, to come to Manila, promising to release the crew of the Lacson If Edwards se cured from the British consul at Ma nila a statement establishing the na tionality of the crew. A similar con cession was made to the crew of the Nero. Edwards Buys he saw several Ameri can prisoners, who were better fid than the Spaniards or the Filipino soldiers. Moreover, they were not compelled to work, as the Spanish prisoners are. A force of native police has begun to patrol the city of Manila, co-operating with the provost guard, whose lack of knowledge of the language and the re sorts of native criminals had given many opportunities for burglaries, an industry which has been nourishing of late: The new force includes many members of the old force, and some In-' surgents who have grown tired of fighting. It has already done good work In running down native crimi nals. The American secret service recently found a Filipino spy in Calamba. He li supposed to have been the man who stole four guns belonging to the Wash ington regiment. He offered desperate resistance to the soldier who was sent to capture him and tried to run away with two revolver shots In the head. Finally he was brought down by a rifle bullet In the hip. He died after Jump ing from the stretcher and trying to run. General Bates, It Is expected, will establish posts at Zamboanga and in the Island of Tamtant, Jolo and Bon gao. The Kansas reghnpnt embarked on big barges In the river, which were towed to the United States transport Tartar, the regimental flag flying and the men cheering and singing. The Tartar has sailed for San Francisco. DISPATCHES FROM OTIS. Only Two Regiment of Volunteer Lett In the I'hlllpplDre. WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.

To battalions of the Nineteenth Infantry have been sent to relieve the Tennesaees at Ilo Ilo and Cebu. The latter, with the lowaa, are the only remaining volunteer regiment which will sail soon." At the war department It is said that with the leaving of the Tennessees and Iowa regiments all the volunteers will have left the Philippines; also all the men of the regular army discharged under General Order 40. The second dispatch reads as follows: "The gruves of the deceased mem bers of the Tenth Pennsylvania were decorated Sept. 1 with fitting ceremo nies conducted, by Chaplain Pierce. Chaplain Sutherland, a personal friend of Colonel Hawkins, delivered an ad dress." DEWEY'S LAST LANDING. Tlie Olrmpla Will Mart From Gibraltar On reptniiiber 11. .GIBRALTAR, Sept. 5.

REVIEW OF TRADE. fradstteet's Weekly Report oa tae Con dition of Baalaas. NEW YORK. Sept. 2. Bradatraett says: With an exceptionally heavy business already booked for the lat ter portion of the year the mercantile community facta the trade situation with confidence, testified to by vary generally firm prices and with quo tations In a number of lines showing further marked advances. The most conspicuous exception to thla Is found In cereals, which are weak and declln". Ing. Lower prices for wheat, corn and oats point to speculative liquidation of tired holders, who, with confidence in the future of prices, have weakened under unsatisfactory foreign demand, larger receipts and the near approach of expected heavier crop movements. Corn crop prospeots, though less rosy, still point to a full yield. Cotton, too, has weakened slightly, chiefly because of advices of rains at the South, though Texas crop advices are still unsatisfactory, and stories of perma nent damage are forthcoming. With these exceptions, most staples are either firmly held or evince decided progress upward, notable In this lat ter respect being Iron and steel of all kinds, but particularly pig Iron, which now la the center of trade Interest, owing to heavy demand, particularly for foundry grades, at advancing prices. Trade reports would seem to Indicate that a good part of the pro ductive capacity of the country is al ready engaged for the first half of 1900. Auguot witnessed a general gain In the prices of cotton and woolen goods, evidently the outcome of active demand, Judging from reports from leading cities. Scarcity of material and backward deliveries of tame are reported by clothing manufacturers at many points north, west and south. Discussion of the proposed consolidation of Fall River mill Interests has been less marked this week, but there Is confid ence In some circles that something of the sort will ultimately transpire. Among other textiles strength Is spec ially notable In hemp In sympathy with London, whence come reports that Philippine shipments will shortly cease. Increased strength has been Imparted to hides and leather this week by the launching of the new upper leather combination. Boot and shoe manu facturers are actively employed, but the margin of profit Is reported to be exceedingly small, owing to keen com petition, and this, among other reasons, may be responsible for the rumors of a great combination of shoe manufact urers, projected. Lumber retains all Its old activity and in some lines manifests new strength as regards prices. The refined sugar war apparently still continues, one result being the stimulation of consumption to a notable extent. Buslnes failures for the last week are the smnllest report for a long time, numbering only 131 as compared with 154 last week, 164 In this week a year ago, 198 In 1S97. 336 In 1S6 and 184 In 1S93.
