No prisoners; except officers and civil leaders, arc retained by the Americans. Their policy is to release all others almost immediately. Major Johnston, of General MacArthur's staff, brough. nere by special train Churlbian. secretary of the treasury In the socalled Filipino government, and Marlanl Ll: Cap. a Chinese halfbreed, director of the railways and postofflces. both of whom surrendered in Bayombong, -with their families and servants. Their goods filled four cars. Churlbian maintained that civilians were exempt from Imprisonment, and he was deeply chagrined when he found himself placed Incommunicado -with Buentamlno. Major Ortez. of the last Filipino commission to Gen. Otis, la a harmless character, a kind of burlesque soldier, and the American officer to whom he surrendered have declined to Imprison him. lie yearns to Pvse as a martyr in Manila. Agulnaldo's mother has arrived here, and has been given shelter by Senor Legarde, a prominent amlgo, who was secretary of the treasury before the outbreak, and who resigned when It came. It seems that Buencamlno's party took refuge In a bandit village, which, had offered Agulnaldo an asylum. Intending to sell him to the Americans. The bandits assassinated half of Buencamlno's guard, and proposed to keep Agulnaldo's mother for ransom.

The quartermaster general has received a detailed report by telegram from Lieutenant Colonel O. F. Long. In charge of the transport service at San Francisco, on the transport Manuanse. which recently arrived at Manila, after undergoing many frightful hardships in a Tacitfc typhoon. The report, which was requested because of the statements of the unfitness of the vessel for transport service, follows: "In reference to your telegram to-day, the transport Manuanse sailed Oct. 25 for Manila via Honolulu. Her capacity was twenty-eight officers and 530 enlisted men. She carried seventeen officers and 3S0 enlisted men. She was inspected by Captain Metcalf, surveyor of Lloyd's register, who officially reported the ves?el in good order and condition when she left this port, both In hull and machinery. She is classed as No. 1, 1, Lloyd's. Also was thoroughly inspected here by the inspector of hulls and boIU.rs, who reported her in excellent conditio p. Official reports of these officers are on file and record. "Treasury officials would not allow an unseaworthy ship, whether government or otherwise, to leave port. I would not grant clearance, consequently expert opinion pronounced Manuanse perfectly seaworthy. She was provided with all life-saving apparatus, even more than Treasury Department regulations required. Her crew, under ordinary circumstances, numbers thirty-two men. She actually carried from San Francisco a crew of forty-nine men, which fully met the requirements of the treasury officials. She carried fifty-five days' provisions for 400 enlisted men and was provisioned for crew and army officers by agents of the .vessel for 160 days. Besides, she had in her hold 900 tons measurement of bacon, flour, canned goods and other commissary supplies. "The Manuanse was also thoroughly Inspected by Colonels Carllngton and Maus. Inspector generals, and by Captain Barneson. marine superintendent, and by other transport officials. Lieutenant Colonel Hayes also frequently inspected the transport previous to her departure. All expressed themselves thoroughly satisfied with every arrangement and provision made here. The ship met Lloyd's requirements, which are the highest known among shipping people. This, in itself, should be a sufficient guarantee of seaworthiness. The vessel made an average speed of ten knots from Honolulu to Manila. Had her machinery been seriously impaired, she certainly could not have made the distance covered in the time she did. I believe, and all our officials connected with the transport service here concur, that when the Manuanse left here she was perfectly seaworthy, fully manned and provisioned." Commenting on the above report. Colonel Balllnger, In charge of the transport service here, said it seemed clear that the utmost vigilance had been used by every one connected with the Inspection of transports at San Francisco, and as the commissary branch had also shown the care used by them, such hardships as had occurred must be attributable to the elements, against which no amount of care could prevail with absolute assurance. Officers here had received Honolulu newspapers showing that the Manuanse was all right when she arrived tnere. so the trouble must have occurred between Honolulu and Manila. e CHEW OP THE U II D AX ETA Two Survlorm Tell of the Fate of Their Companions.

Disposing- of Ills Holdings In the Chicago Surface Lines. CHICAGO, Nov. 30.-The Chicago Union Traction Company's purchase of the Yerkes Interests in the suburban lines composing: the Chicago Consolidated Traction Company, which was announced yesterday, will be followed In a short time, it Is said, by the purchase of the Yerkes Interests In the Suburban Railroad Company. Negotiations are already under way, but terms will not be arranged until after the purchase of the Consolidated Company's lines has been completed and the cash has been paid over. The Suburban Railroad Company operates thirty miles of track west of the city limits and serves as a feeder to the Metropolitan and Lake-street elevated railroads. For this reason Its acquisition has not been considered so important by the Union Traction Company people as the acquisition of the Consolidated Company's Hne3. which are o4rcct feeders to the North and West Side surface HnesXowned by the Union Traction Company itself. The capital stock of the Suburban road Is J1.230.W0. and there are 5 per cent, bonds to the same amount outstand ing. When this purcnase has been made Mr. Yerkes will have disposed of the last particle of his interest in surface roads in Chicago, with the exception of his stock In the Union Traction company.

DINNER AT THE WHITE HOUSE RHODE 1SLAXD TURKEY OS TA11LE, AS ISl'AL. THE ThankMslvIne Day Speech at London by 3Ir. Choate Reference to the Triple Alliance. NEW YORK. Nov. SO.-Thanksglving day was an Ideal Indian summer day. The chief point of interest in the city to-day was the Columbia-Indian football game, where twenty thousand persons Inside and outside Manhattan Field watched ae palefaced athletes of New York city's greatest university go down like so many false sods before the red men from Carlisle. Thousands of other admirers of athletic sports cheered themselves hoarse as they saw George W. Orton, of the Toronto La crosse and Athletic Association, win the ten-mile championship run at the Knicker bocker Athletic Club carnival of sport, at Madison-square Garden, this afternoon. A number of the waifs of New York will ong remember Thanksgiving day of this year because of the fact that they were In vited to eat turkey at Woodycrest, the home for poor children near Irvington, N. Y., owned and supporteu by Miss Helen Gould. This home Is on the sumlt of Woodycrest mountain, about a mile east of Lyndhurst, the summer home of Miss Gould. Twelve of the fortunate children were formerly nmates of a hospital for crippled children n tho metropolis. Later In the day Miss Gould, following her anual custom, gave the poor people of the village of Irvington a tuncey dinner at Woodycrest. At these dinners Miss Gould personally supervised arrangements for the feasts. Another dinner In which society people were greatly interested was the festival of tho Children's Aid Society to-night, when two thousand boys and girls who Inhabit the society's lodging houses were treated to what must have seemed to them a veritable banquet. Among those who are Interterested in this dinner are William Wal dorf Astor, of London, W. Bayard Cutting ana w . t. lloosevelt. Another dinner which was equally well attended and well appreciated was the newsboys' dinner on Uuane street. Three thousand persons were well fed at the Catholic protectory. At the Five Points Mission another thousand feasted, while at the t lve Points House of Industry fully 1,500 gathered around the Thanksgiving Doaru. beth Low, President of Columbia University, paid the Inmates of the Montcfiore Home for Chronic Invalids a visit and made a short address in connec tion with the celebration of the fifteenth anniversary of the institution.

A RHODE ISLAND TURKEY. I'anal. Center Pleee on the President's Dinner Table. WASHINGTON, Nov. 30. A very general observance of the holiday by persons In all walks of life marked Thanksgiving day at the national capital. The government de partments, District offices and business houses were closed. Delightful weather prevailed and crowds found amusement at the rces and other outdoor sports. The poor were not forgotten by those In more fortunate circumstances. The day was more closely observ ed at the executive mansion than for some years. The house was closed to visitors and business was almost suspended. The President saw only a few intimate friends- Mr. and Mrs. Abner McKlnley came over from New York to dine at the White House and accompanied the President and Mrs. McKlnley to church, attending services at the Metropolitan M. E. Church. Rev. Frank M. Rriftol. the pastor, preached tho sermon, which was a patriotic uiscourse, in which he pointed out that the high pos.tlon attained by this country and its success and prosperity have been due at all times to love of God, obedience to His commands and patriotism. The President had several Invited guests with him to dinner at the White House this evening, the centerpiece being Rhode Island turkey, which is sent to him each year. Stars and Stripes Displayed. ROME, Nov. 30. Thanksgiving day was celebrated by the American colony In Rome with usual enthusiasm. There was a lavish display of the stars and stripes at the embassy, the consulate and the residences of Americans throughout the city. King Humbert received Ambassador Draper in private audience. SPEftCH BV MR. CHOATE. The Ambassador Refers to America's Relations with Britain. LONDON, Nov. 30. The annual Thanksgiving, banquet of the American Society of London was attended by 273 guests and was marked by enthusiastic demonstrations of friendship for England inthe war against the Boers. A striking speech by Ambassador Choate along that line and the presence of the uniformed nurses and doctors of the American hospital ship Maine were the features. Mr. Choate In response to a toast to his own health, which was received with loud cheering, said there could not be a better prelude to what he had to say than a remark that had been made to hm "Let England and America clasp hands across the sea and thj peace of the world Is absolutely secure." He referred sympathetically to the l023cs sustained by British families through tho war, and went on to say: "Fortunately. Englishmen have not far to look for living proofs of this human sympathy. Neutral as America must be, her women could not be neutral. To neutralize them would bo to spoil them. These American women In London who have lltted up a hospital ship have done a deed that will live for all time as u bles.-lng to our common humanity." Aftr declaiing that the action of the United States in endeavoring to look after British interests In the Transvaal were im-reiv an endeavor to reciprocate kindness exhibited durlr.g the war with Spain, Mr. Choate said: "Unfortunately the ual authorities at Pretoria seemed to think that this would not be quite the proper thing. Yet I can but hope that the prohibition will ultimately b? removed, so that we may bo permitted to act In this errand of mere humanity." . . Dealing with the commercial prosperity of the United States and the necessity for a mercamlle marine. Mr. Choat remarked: "Carrying trade Is the white man's burden, and we must do our full share. The supreme interest ot the United States is to preserve the peace of the world. I still believe that a majority of the American people continue to uphold Washington's maxim about no entagling alliances, and 1 have no fear of ar.y quarrel between the three greatest commercial nations Eng land. Germany und the Lr.ited States. Our one aim is to Increase our commerce with the great kindred nations, who. for three generations, have settled amicably every question, however great and trying, that has ever arisen between them. How ran we ever have any dispute again while the

great stream of German blood continues to flow In our veins and while New lork and Chicago stand among the greatest German cities In the world? How can we fail to believe that wo will be able to maintain absolute amity with this great nation?" Tracing the progress of the United States toward the far East. Mr. Choate exclaimed: There is now only one step farther the ooen door and who shall slam that door in our face?" The other speakers Included Robert P. Potter. J. Walter Karle, president of the society: James lioyl2. United States consul at Liverpool; Moreton Frewen, Morgan Richardf and F. C. Van Duzer. Among others present were th members of the embassy staff, Hiram Maxim and almost all the principal members of the American colony. O-vlng to a slight indisposition, Mrs. Choate was unable U be present. AT KAISERHOF.

Thanksgiving; Tiny Celebration hy Rerllu's American Colony. BERLIN, Nov. 20. The celebration of Thanksgiving day at the Kaiserhof this evening was one of the largest and most successful celebrations In the history of the American colony in Berlin. Nearly three hundred persons were present, most of them being young men and women students. John L Jackson, secretary of the United States embassy, presided, and among those present were United States Consul General Mason. Senator Mitchell. Mr. and Mrs. Chisholm, of Cleveland. Dr. and Mrs. Norton Downs, of Philadelphia, Trofessor Carhart, of Ann Arbor, Dr. Dickie Hammond, of Cor nell, and Professor Stevens, of ale. Professor Stevens made the only speech, dwelling on the debt America owes to German science as testified bv the number of American students in Berlin. He raised a ch?er by add:r.g that, whiie recognizing her debt to Germany, America could not forget the ties binding her to Lngiand. "We are England's loyal daughter," he said, "despite the fact that she has not always treated us as a mother should a child, although later she madp ample reparation." During the banquet and on the suggestion of Mr. Jackson a dispatch was sent to President McKlnley. assuring him of the "loyalty and sympathy of the exiles." A Fimilar dispatch was sent to Ambassador White ut AU.ssio, Italy. After dinner there was dancing. SENATE FINANCIAL BILL. Thomas C. Piatt Says It Differs from the House Measure. NEW YORK, Nov. 30. Senator Thomas C. Piatt when asked to-night what difference there was between the Senate and House finance bills said: "It was agreed last summer by ray associates on the Senate finance committee that the bill we then agreed upon should not be talked about until It was submitted, and that precludes my talking about It. I may say, however, that It differs very essentially from the new House bill In almost every feature except the gold standard. I am going back to Washington to-morrow afternoon, and there will be a meeting of the Senate finance committee on Saturday, after which there may be seme facts to be given to the public." Talking about the suggestion of holding the next Republican national convention In New York city. Senator Piatt said: "This is the best place to hold the convention. I shall do all I can to have it here." Senator James McMillan, of Michigan, who is in New York, said to-night that he did not believe in trilling too much with the currency. "I like seme of the features of the Senate bill," he went on. "The House measure differs materially from that prepared by the Senate committee, and a conference will be necessary to agree on a uniform bill. If too much is attempted nothing will be accomplished. I am of opinion that the coming session of Congress will complete arrangem?,'3 f-r territorial governments in Porto Rico and Hawaii. No-h-lng in that direction ui.i be done for some time yet for Cuba or the Philippines, however. I do not know who will be named for the vice presidency at the Republican convention, but the impression seems to prevail tnat the choice will fall on a New York man." MUST BEWARE. (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) ated Press suggested the CTeat difflcultv of reaching a satisfactory settlement of com mercial dimcuitles at the present time, esEecially in view of the fact that the United tates is awaiting Germany's action on meat and Germany is awaiting the new tariff schedule and also is unwilling to freJudico pending negotiations with other mportant countries relative to commercial treaties by prematurely concluding one with America, Dr. Von Mumm did not dis sent and later in the interview he virtually adopted the suggestion. Discussing the present political relations between the two powers, the German diplomatist spoke freely, declaring that tho Samoan agreement was a cause of satis faction to all three powers and had removed a "powder cask" from international politics. It was nonsense, he asserted, to say that the United States still refused to ratify the Anglo-German agreement, al leglng that, as a matter of fact, when ho left Washington an agreement had already been reached. Dr. Von Mumm remarked that the American demand in the partition project had been known all along and was agreed to from the first namely, the possession of Tultila, with a safe harbor at Pago Pago and tho other islands subsidiary to it. The Berliner, Tageblatt, in a doubleleaded paragraph, this evening, says: "On account of the unsatisfactory condition of the textile trade with America, several lm portant owners have decided to erect mills In the United Statps." The Colonial Zeltung to-day publishes a letter from Emperor William, addressed to Duke Albrecht. regent of the grand duchy I Majesty congratulates Germany on the ac quisition of Samoa and expresses hopes tnat. with God s help, the German colonies, "sus tained by the intelligent and self-sacrificing solicitude of the people and supported hy a strong fleet, may, in peaceful competition with other nations, advance on the road to prosperous development and prove a bless ing to the fatherland." MAY DE FORCED TO RESIGN. Lord Mayor of London Involved in a Hooley-Like Scandal. LONDON, Nov. 30. Lord Mayer Newton's attempt to vindicate himself In court on charge of misrepresentation In a company promotion resulted in placing himself In such an unfavorable light that the general Impression Is that he will resign from the office, which he only assumed two weeksago. Newton, with several others, attempted to float a year ago a company called the Industrial Contract Corporation, vendors. It had bought property for 17,00) and proposed to sell It to a new company for XMS.OCK). The promoters figured, after paying all expenses, on making 19,O0Q net profit on the deal. The specific charge against Newton Is that he was both a vendor and a director in the new company. In plain words, by concealing the fact that he was a promoter, ho deceived the men he Induced to go into the new company with him. and thu3 sold his .own property to his own company, which Is illegal. When the lord mayor wa3 Installed In office the lord chief justice, in administering the oath, declared it devolved upon him to clear himself of these charges. The present action was a friendly one brought by the mavor to do this. William Mendal. who was interested with Newton, testified to large pavrcent3 to the pres for favorable notice. This is just what Hooley did. The papers named are the Whitehall Review, the Saturday Review, tho Financial Times, the Financial News, the Drapers' Record, the St. James Gazette, To-Day, the Rlalto. the Observer, the Sunday Times and Truth. The naming of the latter paper in this connection created considerable surprise, as Labouchere has always been a viperous exposer of fraud. The lord mayor testified that he knew nothing of these payments. The case will be continued next week. I.lpton Prninea Americans. LONDON, Nov. 30. Sir Thomas Llpton, speaking at the annual dinner of the Temple Yacht Club. In the Hotel Cecil this evening, Lord Charles Beresford presiding, referred in generous terms to his recent visit to the United States. "No man," said Sir Thomas, "could have had fairer or better treatment, no man could have met with a more generous welcome than I had, and received at the hands of the greatest and of the humblest in America. I can see no room for discouragement, and unless some one else challenges. I shall certainly do so myself very soon. AH I can say is that we had a fair and square race, and got a fair and square licking." These sentiments were recelevd with prolonged applause, tho entire company rising and singing "For Ho. A Jolly Good Fellow."

JUDGE BURNED IN- EFFIGY

31 1 Ni; US IXDIGXAXT OVER THE IMrRISOX3IET OF REESE. Portrait of Jndge Williams Placed In a Coffin and Darned Strike Ordered Until Reese Is Free. j Kan., Nov. SO. At k Jt-xjRT SCOTT. Kan., rov. so. At a re markable indignation demonstration at Pittsburg, Kan., In tho heart of the Kansas ccal fields, the striking miners to-day burned in effigy Judge Williams, of the Federal Court of Arkansas, who sentenced John P. Rees?, a member of the national execu tive board of United Mine Workers of America, to three months in jail for contempt by violation of a strike order. They also decided on a strike, which is to continue until Reese Is set free. The strikers were joined in the demonstrations by the miners of the union mines. They marched through the town shouting epithets of de rision and protests against the court. There were banners bearing violent inscriptions and many cartoons on canvas in the parade. An Immense crayon portrait of Judge Wil liams was carried just ahead of a rough box coffin, bearing his name. The coffin was car ried by six strikers. The procession stopped on one of the down-town streets and then burned the portrait and the coffin amid wild protest against federal courts. The news of the Incident gave considerable satisfaction to Reese, who Is in jail here. Among the many telegrams he is receiving daily from labor leaders In all parts of the country was ono from Supreme Court Reporter G. C. Clemens, of Kansas. Clemens says: "Congratulations. When slavery is enthroned upon the bench, liberty's place of honor is in the prisoner's dock." All Kansas union miners were ordered to suspend work on Monday until Reese is released. WILL DEFY TUB COURT. In Ion Miners Will Continue to Aak Xonnnlonifttfi to Quit. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Nov. SO. Discussing the action of Federal Judge Williams at Fort Scott, Kan., in Imprisoning John P. Reese for alleged contempt, James Boston, who also Is a member of the national executive board of the United Mine Workers- of America, made the assertion to-night that he would at once go Into the southeastern Kansa3 coal fields. thAt he would do precisely as Mr. Reese had done, and that If Judge Williams should Imprison him for contempt his place would be taken by another member of the national executive board, who, too, would do as Reese had done. He added that a member of the beard would be kept constantly In the coal fields urging the nonunion men there to quit work, despite the federal court's injunction,and that if all the members of the board should be imprisoned other members v.ould be selected to take their places and fill the federal prisons. FIRE LOSS REDUCED. Mont of the J. D. Ltpplncott Company Electrotype Plates Saved. PHILADELPHIA, Not. 30. It was learned to-day that, with few exceptions, the valuable electrotype plates stored in vaults in the J. B. Llpplncott Company's building were not damaged by the fire which yesterday destroyed that publishing house.

The Patria says to-day: "This is Thanksgiving day. Let us thank God for the dear good fellows, the American soldiers, who have come here to educate us and for the healthy excitement caused by Uncle McKlnley, who shakes the end of the cable whenever he wants to amuse himself. Let us also be thankful that our streets are swept and that small places are asphalted in order to avoid anything that would disturb the slumbers of our dead rulers. Thanks also let us offer to our Italian bishop, and to Mr. Frye and Mister Pitcher, who has so simplified justice for us.
