FUipinos—Sclinrniitii Commission. f- VI lu'.' •, Muiiila, May 11. —Reports receiver! jfr'oiii (lie insurgent line, which, however, have not beeu qoufirmed,' say that a meeting of the Filipiuo congress has been held at Sanisidro. There was no quorum present, bnt in spite of this fact some business was transacted. The reports add that although those who attended were mostly partisans of Aguinaldo, a strong desire for peace was expressed.
General MacArthur will probably remain at Sau Fernando until fresh troops can bo forwarded to him from this city to replace souie of the volunteers who have become exhausted from the long campaign. Filipino riflemen to th.6 number of 8,00 are entrenched on three sides of Bacoior. The Americans, however, are fully able to hold the city if Monday's attack was a specimen of the enemy 'H fighting ability.
The United States Philippine commission has been considering a provincial constitution for the island of Negros, which was framed by Colonel Smith and leading natives. It is largely modelled after the constitution of California. While it has many good points, the commission will probably recommend a uniform government for all the provinces. This constitution, it is intended, will give the native's self government, co-operating with the military regime. Work on the constitution has been apportioned to the several members of the Philippine commission. The report of President Schurman will give special attention to national, provincial and municipal government Colonel Charles Denby will consider the organization of courts, and Professor D. C. Worcester will investigate tribal, physical and commercial features in the islands.
All members of the commission are consulting with resident experts.

Writes a l.ellei- In Which He Hopes He Has I'roven He is Not "Kate." Kansas City, May 11.—Under date of Stanford University, Cal., The Star prints cxcerps from a letter from Brigadier General Frederick Funston, whose brilliant work with the Twentieth Kansas regiment in the Philippines ha» won him fame, to Professor Kellogg, a former fellow bt-udent in the Kansas State University. In his letter, which is dated -April 10, the Kansan gives the first intimation so far made by him regarding a political career. Ho says: "I cannot think there is much in the talk about doing the handsome thing by me. Politically, the rank and file of the Republican party might be willing, but how about the bosses? "There are mighty few offices," continues Funston, "that I would have, and the one or two in the. gift of the people of Kansas I have not the gall to ask for."
General Funston apparently remembers some of the criticisms in connection with his Cuban campaign when he says: "Now I have proven a dozen times at the risk of my life that I am not a fake," and it is his main hope that his record in the Philippines may satisfy the former critics.
Continuing, General Funston mentions some of the battles in which he and his men engaged in the Philippines, saying: "We had a number of good stiff fights in which all ot the troops behaved splendidly, and carried everything before them. Kansas can always be counted on out here to take a place in the vicinity of the bandwagon."
PKOTI riNG AM LA.
The IVovost General oI'ManilaMakes a Keport. Washington, May 11.—The adjutant general has received the report of General R. li. Hughes, provost marshal general of Manila, giving an account of the fires which occurred in Manila in the early days of the rebellion. The report is indorsed by General Otis, who says that it should be stated that General Hughes was present in person during the period covered and directed all the operation about Manila and saved the city from conflagration. General Hughes' report shows that the fires were clearly incendiary and that even after they started the Filipinos tried in every way to prevent their extinguishment. The firemen were shot at by persons concealed in houses and efforts were made to puncture the hose. General Hughes commends the troops for the service they performed and also speake in high terms of the English volunteer fire brigade. Th'e troops were detachments of the Twenty-third infantry, Seoond Oregon, Third Minnesota and Tenth Pennsylvania.

Friends of the executive are much annoyed by stories that Mr. McKinley is smoking excessively and injuriously. Friends in our new island possessions have sent him quantities of cigars of various brands, but they have remained untouched. Au after-meal oigar is a source of thorough enjoyment to the president, but he does not indulge himself to an extent that is harmful.
