’MANILA, May Ill—Philippine com-
missioners to confer with the American
commission regarding surrender arrived
last night at San Isidro and are coming
to Manila today. The people of Manila
are confident that the insurrection is
ending -
Aguinaldo and his cabinet met at San
Isidro before the Americans captured
that place and decided to send a com-
mission to General Otis to accept the
terms of the proclamation recently is-
sued by him offering amnesty.
General Lawton was unaware of the
decision when he advanced upon the
city.
The insurgents on General MacAr-
thur’s front have withdrawn to the
northward, evidently fearing an attack
from the rear by Goneral Lawton’s col-
umn. ~
Major Kobbe’s forces on the gunboats
reached San Luis Wednesday night,
after encountering slight opposition. He
had one man wounded. The advance
was resumed at 5 o ‘clock yesterday
morning.
Spanish prisoners from San Isidro say
that the insurgent leaders Luna and P10
del Pilar are alone in favor of a contin-
uance of the war. The Filipino troops.
they declare, are demoralized, and
Aguinaldo’s influence is waning. His
spirit is broken. and he reproaches him—
self for his country’s misfortunes. The
Filipino women at San Miguel refused
to entertain Aguinaldo, fearing the re-
venge of the Americans should they do
so. and his personal baggage was plun-
dered by dcsperadoes on the retreat to
Cabanatuan.
The Chinese consul has applied to
General Otis for relief for his country—
men, who, he says, are being persecuted
by the insurgents. He reports that 1.000
Chinamen were captured at Dagupan
and forced by the-insurgents to work
in the trenches. Their property was
confiscated at the same time.
A FAVORABL‘E OUTLOOK.
Otis Says Agninaldo Will Send Com-
mission to Ask Pence.
WASHINGTON, May 19.—Adjutant
General Corbin received an important
dispatch yesterday from General Otis at
Manila, as follows:
“Representative insurgent cabinet and
Aguinaldo in mountains 12 miles north
of San Isidro, which abandoned 15thinst.
Will send commission tomorrow to seek
terms of peace. Majority of force con-
fronting MacArthur at San Fernado has
retired to Tarlac, tearing up two miles
railway. This force has decreased to
about 2,500. Scouting parties and de-
tachments moving today in various di-
rections. Kobbe, with column, at Can-
daba, on Rio Grande. Great majority
inhabitants of provinces over which
troops have moved anxious for peace,
supported by members insurgent cabi-
net. Aspect _of affairs at present favor-
able.”
Department officials are firmly con.
vinced that the end of the insurrection
in the Philippines is at hand and that
the representatives of the insurgent
cabinet and of Aguinaldo who are to
meet General Otis today will succumb
to the inevitable and surrender. Their
forces. it is said at the department, evi-
dently are so demoralized by the per-
sistent advance of the Americans that
they are ready to accept peace on the
best terms they can obtain. Driven
northward to the foothills of the moun—
tains, as they have been, their fleeing
and scattered forces, disintegrated and
dishcartened. no longer can be made to
face our victorious advance.
Indians Resist Vaccination.
WASHINGTON, May 19.—The secre—
tary of war has ordered the command-
ing ofiicer at Fort Wingate, N. M., to
dispatch an adequate force of troops
immediately to the Moqui Pueblo Indian
villages in Arizona to assist in over-
coming resistance to the work of disin-
fecting and quarantining the villages
where smallpox is prevalent. Secretary
Alger says that with careful vaccina-
tion there will be little danger to the
troops, as they will be used only to en-
force the orders of the agent.

WASHINGTON, May 19.—The follow-
ing fourth class postmasters have been
appointed: New York —- Breakabeen,

Murderer Brumm Captured.
LANSING, Mich, May 19.—James H.
Brumm, who murdered Mollie Flagler
at Diamondale Tuesday, was captured
yesterday by the Lansing police. About
3 a. m. Brumm appeared at his moth-
er’s home here. He was exhausted, half
tarnished and in a state of complete
mental collapse. Brumm seems unable
to give any account of his crime. He is
undoubtedly insane.
Two Killed by a Train.
HAZLETON, Pa., May 19.—-Paul
Leek and John Mechok, Lehigh Valley
railroad section hands, were struck by
a passenger train near McAdoo yester-
day and instantly killed. They stepped

serve the rapidly appoaching passenger

York, proved an easy winner in the
contest for the place‘ of moderator of
the eleventh annual assembly of the
Presbyterian church in the United
States, which convened in W'estminster
,church yesterday.” Dr. Sample' was
elected on the first ballot after a spirit-
ed contest, 1eceiving 338 votes, :00 being
necessaly for a choice, to 127 for the
,Rev. Matthias Haines of First church,
Indianapolis, and 133 for Rev. B. F.
Coyle of Oakland, Cal. Dr. Sample’s
election is regarded as a triumph for
the conservative element.
The morning session was devoted to
religious services, which were attended
by about 600 commissioners and so
many spectators that the 1,800 seats of
the church were not sufficient to ac-
commodate them.
In the afternoon Permanent Secretary
Rev. W. E. Moore called the roll, and
immediately afterward the election of
a moderator was declared to be in or-
der. It took almost an hour to take the
ballot. The result was greeted with
great applause. Rev. Pleasant Hunter
welcomed the assembly to Minneapolis
and presented Dr. Sample with a gavel
of Cuban, Porto Rican and Philippine
wood.
A resolution was adopted directing
the moderator to send to M. de Staal,
president of the international peace
conference, a. message “invoking the
blessing of Almighty God on your de-
liberations.”
Temporary clerks were appointed as
follows: Thomas E. Kirkwood, Pueblo,
COL; E. T. Swiggett, Cincinnati; P. H.
Brooks, Wilkesbarre, Pa.; H. W. Jes-
sup, New York.
Mount Morrison Sealed.
VANCOUVER, B. 0.. May 18.—The
steamship Empress of India brings news
of the ascent for the first time of Mount
Morrison, the highest mountain in For-
mosa, by Stoepel, who ascended the
peak of Orizaba, in Mexico. Many pre~
vious attempts had failed. Stoepel says
the heat was terrific, and he narrowly
escaped death from wild animals and
men. He found on the mountain a
strange tribe of man eaters hitherto un-
known. The people are evidently of
Malayan origin and distinct from any
known race. They have never commu—
nicated with the Chinese. They are
skull hunters, and cannibalism was
actually witnessed by Stoepel, who saw
a feast in progress while hiding close by
in the underbrush.

President's Henltli Improved.
HOT SPRINGS, Va., May 18.—The
president’s visit here is nearly at an
end. Though the time of departure has
not been definitely fixed, it is almost
certain that the party will reach \Vash—
ington ”some time Saturday. The rest
from official routine, the freedom from
intrusion and the exercise in the open
air has given the president the recuper—
ation he needed. He appears thorough—
ly healthful and will return to “'ash-
ington invigorated and well.
A Writing Paper Combine.
MILWAUKEE, May 18.—A Journal
special from Appleton, VVis., says it is
stated the writing paper combine, with
a capitalization of $42,000,000, is almost

ties wanted remaining. Appraisers have

erties stated to be the Fox River and
the Plover Paper companies’ mills at
Appleton and Iglover respectively.
