'War Department Official Think IIotllltlem Are Nenrly Ended. WASHINGTON, April .-General Otis cabled the War Department this morning that the commanding general of the insurants had received from the insurgent government directions to suspend hostilities pending negotiations for the termination of the war. The dispatch follows: "After taking Calumpit MacArthur's division crossed the Rio Grande river In the face of jtreat obstacle, driving the concentrated fnrces of lha enemy bark on the railroad two mile. MaoArthur reports tnat the passage of the river was a remarkable military rhivm'nt. the success of which wyis due to the during, kili and determination of Colon! Fur.ston. under discriminating control cf General Wheaton. The casualties were slight; number not yet ascertained. "Th!. morning the chief of staff from the commanding general of the Insurgent forces entered our lir.fs to express admiration of the wonderful feat of th American army In fcicirg the passage of the river, which was thought Impossible. The staff officer reports that the insurgent commanding general has received from the Insurgent government directions to suspend hostilities pending negotiations for th- termination of the war. The staff officer with his party is now en route to Manila, and will arrive soon. "Liiwton's forces well in hand in vicinity of Angat. east of Calumpit. where he 13 Raiting supplies to In? sent them to-morrow. "Yesterday morning a force of 1.500 insurgents attacked our troops at TaRuIg, but were driven back by the Washington regiment. Our loss was two killed and twelve wounded." The dispatch from General Otis was Immediately telegraphed to President McKinley t Philadelphia. The officials of the War Department all believe the hostilities are about concluded. The news came Just at the beginning of the odlcI.il day here. There was a feeling of profound relief expressed at once on all sides, for during the last three days the officials have been much depressed by the reports that came from the front. The 5HocIate4 Press bulletin, dated at the close of to-day from Manila, stating the negotiations for peace had not been successful to-day, but that another conference would occur to-morrow, did not have any substantial effect In repressing the expressions of satisfaction. It was remembered by th officials that General Toral, at Santiago, did not surrender at the first instance and that several days were occupied In the negotiations which Anally resulted In the capitulation. In some respects the situation at Calumpit bears a. striking resemblance to that existing at Santiago just prior to the breakdown of the Spanish resistance. The Spaniards were hungry and insufficiently supplied. Just as are the Filipinos. They sought llrst to escape the humiliation of a surrender; to march out with the honors of war; to carry off their arms, but they were obliged to abandon all these points. Just as the Filipinos would be forced to do In a short time, according to the expectations of the officials here. ALGER ELATED. Secretary Alger was naturally highly gratified at the news. He approved generally Otis's treatment of the Filipino delegation, but he made It clear that there was no disposition on his part to Interfere with Otia and the Filipino commission in making terms with-the Filipinos to any greater degree than had been done in the conduct of the campaign. The secretary said the Filipino commission had full power to arrange terms of surrender. It Is stated on the highest authority under Its instructions the Philippine commission will deal most leniently with the insurgents when once convinced of their intention to cease fighting. The commission will not be technical nor captious as to the terras. It will be made plain to the revolting: Kilipinos that r.o grudge u to be charged up against them; that they are not to be punished In the Spanish fashion by wholesale executions of the leading spirits among them, and finally, that they will not lo.se their property. It is believed here a powerful help to General Otis In bringing the campaign to a successful issue was the spreading among the rebels of a belief In the promises of the American government. There Is a disposition on the part of some of the officials here who will have much to say with the arrangement of the final terms of peace to apprehend an undue insistence on the part of the American commander at Manila upon an immediate and FAIR WEATHER TO-DAY.

uneonditional surrender. It Is believed the Filipino generals simply wish to avoid direct responsibility for the Furrender, which Is Inevitable. In asking for time In order that their congress may assume that responsibility. It is sale' the Fillrino congress can be speedily got together for this purpose, and thus save the pride of Aguinaido. The bravery of the American troops la highly commended. It was stated at the War Department that Color.fl Funston would secure a brigadier general's commission as a reward for his services In the various engagements culminating In 1.1s daring and heroic efforts. It Is also stated both Colonel Funston and the two men who crossed the river under the fire of the enemy would secure medals of honor. High praise Is given all the volunteers, a It appears they were at the very place where the righting was going on. At the foreign embassies the news that the Filipinos had treated for peace attracted much attention. The substance of the Otis dispatch was communicated to several of the foreign offices abroad. The foreign representatives expressed satisfaction at the turn of affairs, regarding It as most opportune for the United State?, as well as a consummation in which all civilized nations would share. The British charge d'affaires. Mr. Tower, was much gratified at the idea the end of the fighting was in sight. At th French embassy, also, the news was received with expressions of satisfaction and, indeed, at all the foreign establishments there were expressions of sincere good will that the resistance to America in the Philippines was near its end. One ambassador paid: "Your country Is to be congratulated on this result. It sec rr.3 a great deal--much more than the mere cessation of fighting. It will avoid a campaign through the six months of the Philippine wet season, which would be most trying to the Americans. It will convey an Impressive lesson to the Filipinos and one which. It is to be hoped, they will not soon forget. At the same time it conveys to the world at large another evidence of the pluck and endurance of your soldiers and the American characteristic of perseverance in the face of difficulties." Th rrenlilent'a Congratulation. I,HILADKLPHIA, April .Immediately on receiving from Washington the dispatch of General Otis, President McKinley sent the following message of congratulation and thanks to the soldiers in the Philippines: "To Otis. Manila Your message announcing the achievements of MacArthur's division and the proposal by the Insurgents of suspension of hostilities Is most gratifying. Convey to officers and men heartfelt congratulations and gratification for their gallantry and triumph. "WILLIAM M'KINLKY." S'FW YORK. April .President McKinley expressed himself as much pleased with the news from the Philippines. "I am very glad to hear of the success of our men,"

said the President, "and glad to know that the prospects for peace are brightening. I heard from General Otis just as I was stepping into my carriage to go from the Hotel Bellevue to Captain Coghlan's ship. " I stopped the carriage and immediately sent a message of congratulations to the troops. That message expresses my sentiments, I think, in regard to the Philippines." LONDON I'ltliSS COMMHNT. IIott the Prospect of Pence In VIevretl by- EnjcllNh i:dltnr. LONDON. April 29.-A1I the morning papers contained editorials congratulating the United States upon the prospect of peace In the Philippines and complimenting the bravery and endurance of the American troops, which have produced the much desired result. All Insist that the United States cannot treat w;th the rebel government. All approve the demand of General Otis for an unconditional surrender and urge that he should be given full powers and not be hampered by instructions from Washington. The Dally Mail says:. "General Otis has to deal with Orientals and his policy must be directed accordingly." The Morning Post, which emphasizes the danger of treating with the rebels, says: "The way may be long, but the adoption of a conciliatory policy is not the method best suited to set to the end of It." The Standard says: "The rebels are proper objects for clemency, but thev cannot he dealt with as a political entltv. No real friend of the Isla nders would wish to see them all at once charged with the ta.k of working out their own destiny on lines of pure autonomy." The Daily News thinks a native administration under supreme American control. and even a native army, "fortified" by a compact American garrison, would be the best solution. What the London Jnntn Say. LONDON, April 2S.-jrembers of the Filipino Junto here credit the reports that peace negotiations are in progress at Manila and declare they knew a cessation of hostilities was Imminent, although temporary delay may be expected if General Luna is In charge of the Filipino overtures, as Luna and Aguinaido had split. The members of the Junto are, however, convinced a direct arrangement between General Otis and Aguinaido will be accomplished. NEGROES NOT WANTED. Given 'o Representation on SundaySchool Convention Committees. ATLANTA, Ga., April 2S.-At to-day's session of the International Sunday-school Convention the executive committee to which was referred tho matter of giving the negroes representation on committees where white men were chosen, reported against the negroes.

Reports were heard from the committees on lessons and finance and from the tieasurer. W. K. Crosby, of Delaware. Toronto is being favorably considered, for the next convention. Twenty-four thousand dollars was raised for the. furtherance of Sunday-school work, Cuba and Japan sending each. President Hoke Smith read an Associated Tress dispatch from Manila announcing that the Filipinos had made overtures for peace. This was received with tremendous applause. The time nd place of holding the i txt convention will be decided to-morrow. Sentiment favors Toronto and it is believed tho convention will go there. Losse ly Fire. PITTSBURG. April 2S. J. J.

DREYFUS CASE PROTEST

.OTD mOM GERMANY TO TIIB FIIE.X.II GOVEH3IE.T Intlmatlnf? that the Fact In Regard to the Exile and IU Alleged Offense May Be Published. LONDON, April 28. Ernest Vizetelly, who has hitherto shown he Is well informed on the subject treated, has an article In the Westminster Gazette to-day in which he says the German government has addressed an expostulatory note to the French government regarding the Dreyfus case. This note was recently presented to M. Delcasse, the French minister of foreign affairs, by Count Munster, the German ambassador to France, and deals with the proceedings before the Court of Cassation as published in the Figaro, and which, the note says, surprised and pained the German government. The note, according to Vlzeteliy, intimated that in certain eventualities it would be Impossible for the German government to retrain fiom offlcially publishing the facts. "In Justice to its own ollicers," the note said, "we have repeatedly solicited permission to speak." The note urged in forcible terms the desirability in the Interests of both countries of a speedy end of the present agitation. The presentation of this note led M. Dupuy, the French foreign minister, to bring pressure to bear on the Court of Cassation, which, however, decided to continue the proceedings in its own way and hold a supplemental Inquiry, which is now virtually ended. Mr. Vizetelly learns that eighteen of the judges of the Court of Cassation are in favor of and fifteen opposed to revision of the Dreyfus ca?e. It is probable. Mr. Vizetelly adds, that on a full vote of the judges of the united Court of Cassation tho revisionists will have a majority of eight. Noisy Antl-I)refusard to De Tried. PARIS, April 2S. Mme.

A dispatch from Kiel to the Vo?slsche Zeltunff says naval officers there are smiling at the statements made by Capt. Joseph B. Coghlan In the course of his speech at the Union League Club banquet In New York. These offl cers claim Admiral Von Diederlch'p answer to Dewey's threat was simply "Clear for action and quietly steam through the American lines Into the harbor." The newspapers here to-day, commenting on the latest news from Samoa, express satisfaction with the attitude of Admiral Kautz, U. S. N., Interpreting it as a sign the United States government will henceforth side with Germany in the Samoan trouble. The Boerpen Courier says the American admiral's, position may Indicate how differently the Americans and the English in Samoa interpret instructions received simultaneously. It is believed here an understanding has been reached between the governments of the United States and dermany not only as to their relations in Samoa, but In rogard to other portbns of the world as well. Some Uerlln papers to-duy condemn a speech made recently by the United States consul at Amsterdam, Mr. Correy. In which it was said that from the year iv;s j-nnce itlfmarcK naa o-en constantly scheming to seize Holland. The North German Gazette, commenting on this assertion, says the United States seems to pick out singular specimens of mankind for diplomatic posts. The NVuejten Xachrlchten notes "with lively satisfaction the loyal attitude of the Washington government in admonishing Admiral Kautz relative to his letter "to his cousin in the United States." Puerile Maneuver. LONDON. April 20. The Berlin correspondent of the Times, remarking on the puerile maneuvers of the German papers in trying to read into the reports of the Porpoise bombarding Samoan villages In the absence of the Philadelphia a proof of break-down of the Anglo-American entente, quotes the Neueste Nachrichten as saying: "The Americans. In accordance with Washington's Instructions, refrain from intervening in the internecine conflicts of the navies, while the English men-of-war continue to perform 'deeds of heroism against the defenseless villages." The Proposed Tactile Cable. LONDON. April 2S. In the House of Commons to-day the government was questioned on the subject of the proposed Pacittc cable mentioned in the terni-annual meeting of April 26 of the Eastern Telegraph Company. The secretary for the colonies, Joseph Chamberlain, said . the government had made proposals to the governments of Canada and Australia on the subject, but no final agreement had been made. Statements which appeared in the press. Mr. Chamberlain said, dfd not accurately represent the proposals made. With reference to New Zealand's offer to send volunteers to Samoa, the parliamentary secretary for the Foreign Office said the offer had been declined, as the government considered the naval force now at Samoa sufficient to cope with the exigencies of the situation. The government, however, Mr. Rroderick said, expressed Its high appreciation of New Zealand's offer. It. I. Porter to Londoner. LONDON, April 2S. Mr Robert F. Torter, who was the principal guest of the White Friars Club to-night, responding to a toast, "The Anglo-Saxon Brotherhood." dwelt on the ever increasing commercial ties binding the United States to Great Rritain. Ties, he said, would be further imptoved that the tariffs for America's new dependencies would be patterned after Kngiand's "open door." In the course of his remarks Mr. Porter said that during his recent visit to Germany he had tried to make it understood that Germany could prolit as well as England by manufacturing American raw materials. In this connection he observed that despite recent events the United States was "in close sympathy" with Germany. Wireless Telegraphy In Praetleal Use. LONDON. April 2S.

He was an enthusiastic yachtsman, and took a healthful Interest In the various out-of-door sports which from time to time engage the attention of fashionable society.

MUMIALL. Dr. nnekley Derlares Methodlat Dish opt Are Too Clonely Anciated ivlth Men of Wealth. New York Herald. "Higher criticism" was bitterly attacked by the Rev. Dr. L. Wr. Munhall, an evangelist from Philadelphia, at the Methodist ministers' meeting, at No. 150 Fifth avenue. yesterday. He declared the church's enemy was now in her pulpits; he asserted that in two of the theological schools Old Testament professors were giving the students all the objections to the Bible's authenticity, with out attempting to answer the objections, and he related Instances of young men made Infi dels by attending Methodist educational In stitutions. Although a vote of thanks was accorded to Dr. Munhall for his address, it was not until after sharp criticism had been made. Dr. John Rhey Thompson, of Brooklyn, charac terized the address as "the most dangerous paper heard here ln a long time," and thanked God the prevailing type of Method ism was not that of Dr. Munhall. Dr. Buck ley declared some of the bishops were getting too Intimate v.'lth wealthy men who endow the colleges. Dr. w. F. Anderson declared Dr. Munhall guilty of heresy in putting the text of the Bible higher than the living Christ, and Dr. George P. Mains said: "No such vague charges as have been made here against an institution near New York ought to be made. They should either be withdrawn or else made specific and fol lowed by an official Investigation." Dr. L. W. Munhall's theme was "The Integrity and Authority of the Bible." Dr. Munhall conceded that many of those who teach the "higher criticism" are entirely honest, but he vehemently attacked their teachingsnevertheless. "No sensible person." he said, "will object to any devout and honest effort to ascertain the dates and determine the authorship humanly speaking of the various books composing" the Bible, and the exact text of the sacred writings, but we Insist that the examinations and criticisms shall be made by competent iersons. and that, before we will abandon the views and faith held by the historic church for eighteen centuries, we must have, not conjectures, presuppositions and bold, unprovable assumptions, but demonstrable facts. "Nearly every objection raised against the integrity of the Bible by the present day higher critics can be found in Volume VI, Didot edition of Voltaire's works, and Paine's Age of Reason.' See Charter 16, Jlichest Critics vs. Higher Critics.' "The plan of the battle has changed. The enemy used to be outside the breastworks; he is now inside in our own pulpits. In our educational Institutions and editorial chairs, but it is the same battle, and the weapons used against the book are -Hie very same tho Infidels have always used." "HiKher criticism." Dr. Munhall said, "has failed to reveal a single Inaccuracy in the Bible. There are still many dltnculties in explaining the txt. but many such difficulties have been cleared up In the last ten years, and the others may be." The speaker declared It to be impossible to preach an infallible Savior from an unauthoritative Bible. He related this instance i "It is said some one asked Mr. Ingcrsoll recently, 'Why do you not give your lecture. acainst the liible any more? H replied, 'Th professors and teachers are doing that work o much better than I possibly can, and their Influence is so much reater.' "I do know." he continued, "that in two of our theological schools the Old Testament professors are giving their students all th objections against the integrity of the record, and making no attempt whatever to answer these objections, and these students are going out to till our pnlpits with little or no knowledge of the Bible, their minds filled with objections to the book the church commissions them to preach. Can any orra reasonably expect spiritual results from the ministry of such men? "I know of one of these young men. who, within four years of his graduation, left the Methodist Episcopal Church, became pastor of a Congregational church, then pastor of a t'nltarian church and then a blatant Inlldel. all In the same town. "A wealthy member of our church, a delegate to tho last General Conference, told

ecret whole bodv deoends me: 'I sent my eldest son to a. Methojst educational Institution not three hundred miles from New York city. Before he left home he was considered by all who knew him to be a model Christian young man. While at school he came under the Influence of a certain professor who is a higher critic. lie came home an infidel, and has not once been inside a church since.' "What moral right has any Institution of our church to employ and support such men in its faculty? For any one ct them now to employ a teacher who will promulgate infidel and rationalistic objections to the Bible in a gross betrayal of one of the most sacred trusts of the church. "There is an appalling unspirltual condition in Methodism. There is no use trying to disguise it. The doctrine of a sanctified life is ln contempt among us. Wordliness Is alarmingly on the increase. Bishop Foster has said: 'The church of God Is to-day courting the world.' Bishop Fowler says: 'The church has degenerated into a kind of social club.' " Dr. Munhall said that the effect of the Rev. Dr. S. P. Cad man's teaching was to lead straight up to Unltarianism, and when he had iinished Dr. Cadman said, vehemently: "I have been misrepresented by the yellow journals, but I claim to be Just as loyal to Jesus Christ as any man here. I don't go about the country telling by brethren that the Methodist ministers are deserting the faith: but Dr. Buckley told me to keep cool, and I will sit down." "We do need a revival." Dr. Buckley said. "We need a ground swell that will change the spirit of some of our bishops. Of late years some of the bishops have been too intimately associated with men of wealth who endow colleges." This sentiment was applauded, and then the Rev. Dr. John Rhey Thompson, of Brooklyn, said: "Long before I ever heard of the higher criticism I became convinced, from reading the book of Isn'.ah. that it had two authors. If that is heresy, prepare your charges. I think the paper read to-day Is the most dangerous paper heard here in a long time. I thank God the present and prevailing type of Methodism Is not that of Dr. Munhall. Heretofore Methodism has stood for fresh air. I do not believe the Methodist colleges are as described." Looking- for a Scapegoat. W". G. Nicholas, in Chicago Post. I find politicians of New York somewhat confused over the speakership. They are far from being unitedly in favor of Candidate Sherman, and it Is becoming evident that the East will be split up when it comes to choosing a man for Speaker Reed's place. The truth is that the House of Representatives is afraid of Itself. Speaker Reed has spoiled it. He has been willing not only to administer the rules in a parliamentary sense, but also to stand as a scapegoat for the cowards. Ninety per cent, of the members of Congress are cowards. They stand up and yell themselves black in the face for appropriations that would ruin the government, understanding full well they will not receive recognition and understanding also that they can lay the blame on the speaker. Mr. Reed's shoulder were broad and he did not object to taking the responsibility. The desire of the members of the present House will be to find a man who will he willing and able to be scapegoat in addition to asserting the duties which legitimately belong to the speaker and who will not become impatient under the harassments incident thereto. The thick-skinned man who comes nearest to filling the bill in that particular will have the largest number of votes and the warmest support regardless of other considerations or of deep-sea combinations. Telecram to Chnancejr. New York Commercial Advertiser. One of the tel?grams received by Senator Chatincey M. Depew at the Montauk Club in Brooklyn on Saturday night is said to have read as follows: "Sixty-five congratulation. Promise to tell no story older than yourself this year and the past will be forgiven." The telegram was unsigned, but it is believed to have emanated from somewhere ln the neighborhood of the New York Central office. The recipient is understood to have given the pledge required.
