IN S U R G E N T S th: F irit lo G lv * Up In of Samar. Manila. July 29—General Hughes cables the news of the first surrender of Insurgents in the Island of Samar, 500 men, with two field guns. 30 rifles and 70 halos, giving themselves up to the United States authorities.

Commissioner Wright, speak ing of the charter of Manila, said the same reasons that controlled In mak ing Washington the federal city ob tained in Manila, and Washington, he declared, was the best governed city in the world. Representatives of the Spanish Chamber of Commerce vehe mently opposed the charter, asserting that it was Inconsistent with the prin ciples of the freest government on earth to deny the right of suffrage to the residents of the metropolis, while granting it to those of other localities. They also declared that the proposed system of government for Manila was far less liberal than that offered by the United States authorities, who proposed to make the representatives of the district in Manila elective by the people.
