MANILA, May 20.—General del Pilar
and Gracio Gonzaza, a member of the
Filipino cabinet; Lieutenant Colonel Al—
berto Barretto, military advocate, and
Major Zealcita, a member of Aguinal-
co-operate with Florentino Torres, Pab—
lo Ocampo and T’hedor Yanco, residents
of Manila, as a commission to negotiate
peace.
They have submitted no new propo-
sition, but want an armistice pending
the session of the Filipino congress.
Major General Otis has refused to en-
tertain the proposal.
Colonel Kobbe’s expedition to open
communication with General Lawton
advanced six miles on Thursday and
firing a shot. A native school teacher,
repre nting the local president, met the
gunboat and surrendered the town to
Captain Grant, requesting that a garrii.
son be left as protection against the in-
surgents. Half the population of the
place lined the river, bearing flags.
Thousands of the natives are return-
ing in boats to the captured cities, even
to Malabon and Manila. They saythey
desire peace and that they no longer
fear the Americans.
On Thursday a. Spanish priest return-
ed With many families, begging protec-
tion. He reported that 300 insurgents
deserted Candaba on Wednesday, re-
treating toward Mount Arayat, 10 miles
to the north. He also said that the na-
tives believed that the archbishop was
aiding the Americans, hence their in-
creased hatred of the Spaniards.
The priest declares that the native
government is better than is generally
believed. The taxes are reasonable, and
the government paid its workmen and
other inhabitants for their services as
agreed, but all fear marauders.
Brigadier General Funston has re-
lieved General ‘Wheaton, who is to be
assigned to the command of a new ex-

“’nshington Expects Good News.
IVASHINGTON, May 20.—The next
advices from General Otis are expect-
ed to contain some definite'information
in regard to the reported wish of Agui—
naldo to sue for peace on any terms.
Since the receipt of Thursday’s unoffi-
cial advices that all except one or two
of the insurgent leaders are heartily
sick of the rebellion the war office offi-
cers have believed that the beginning of
the end of the war has really come at
last. The insurgent forces have been
pressed far to the northward, and at
the rate at which the Americans are
forcing the steady retreat of Aguinaldo
and his followers from one position to
another there could'be little doubt that
it was only a question of a short time
when the rebellion must definitely fail
of its purpose.
This is encouraging to General Otis
and the other American military lead—
ers in the island of Luzon, and this
leads the war department to expect
better news from the Philippines within
the next 24 hours than has been heard
since the revolt began.
The Conference “7“]: Kruger.
CAPE TOWN, May 20.—President
Kruger of the South African Republic
will be accompanied to the forthcoming
conference at Bloemfontein, capital of
the Orange Free State, with Sir Alfred
Milner, governor of Cape Colony and
British high commissioner for South
Africa, by Mr. J. H. A. Wolmarans
and Mr. Schalk W. Burger, members
of the executive council, and by Mr. J.
Smuts, the state attorney. The volks-
raad has adopted a resolution canceling
the burgher rights that were granted
in return for services rendered to the
Transvaal government at the time of
the Jameson raid. This act is the cause
of much ill feeling among the outland-
ers.
Brethren Have Queer Notions.
LANCASTER, Pa., May 20.—The gen-
eral conference of the Brethren In
Christ, which convened in annual ses-
sion at Mastersonville, this county, on
lVednesday; has adjourned. The con-
ference comprises various districts in
the United States and Canada. About
800 members, including 50 ministers,
were present, Canada and the western
statesvbeing largely represented. The
conference decided it would be wrong
to carry life insurance, take matters to
law or to tolerate instrumental music
in church.

Koo-p the Mangers Clean.
Much dust and soiled food“ is apt to
accumulate in the hmses manger, and
as he is all the time breathing over it,
the manger quickly becomes so of-
fensive that much food is wasted. Much
of this feed will, however, be eaten by
cattle, as they will eat freely after
horses. Even the horse excrement is
not so offensive to them as to prevent
them from picking out bits of hay
mixed with it. But the horse has amore

ATLANTA, May 19.—-The Journal
