Thi man guided the Americans to the

captured two of them, took them to the

The present method ol warfare and in

have incensed the American soldiers to
such a degree that they bl justified in
niakinu reprisals, which bat been done
on several occasion recently.
There Is a strong (kuIuihT among the

noouced March 13, surrendered to
llriuadici-tieneral Kobbe alter tcrioriZ'

that bis career ha been mure that of a

H.ic sMlrcotlng Carried by a IHalrlct
Messenger to Transvaal I'reslilent,
Philadelphia, April 12. Oue of the
greatest demonstration of sympathy
both in the number of participant and
iu enthusiasm displayed, ever showu
lu this city for any foreign nation took
place tonight, when the Academy of
Music was jammed with people for the
purpose of taking part iu the rhiladel
phia school boys' pro-l!oer rally. The
primary object of the gathering was to
send ft messHKfl of greeting to President
Krufc-er, aigued by 22,000 pupil of the
schools of this city. So great was th
crush, mostly ol the younger genera
tiou, that iiihuv thousands were unable
to get near the door, and the mass o
struggling jienple wa entertained by
music w hile the meeting inside wat iu
progress.
After the speech making was over
James F. Smith, ft 14-year-old mes
aenger boy, was called to the tage by
means ol the regulation call box, aud
was given the massaue signed by the
school Isiys, with instructions to pio
cee.1 to I'retoria and to hand it person
ally to President Kruger. Tuesday the
messenger will sail on the steamship
ISt. iAiuis, aud before the vessel reaches
Southampton he will be taken oft by ft
French tender aud landed at Havre,
Frauce, lu order to avoid Knsllsh terri
tory. The message to President Kruger
is as follows:
"We, the undersigned students of j
the public tchoola of Philadelphia, the
city where our own forefathers enlisted
iu their splendid aud successful strug
gle agaiust F.uiilish oppression, desire
tn express to you and to the lighting
men of the South African repnblio
their great admiration for the geinus
and counti!" that has checked F.uglish
invasion of the Transvaal, and the un
doraigued extend their most earnest
wishes that iu the end the South Afri
can republic will triumph over Kugland
iu n war in which the Boer cause it
noble, the llritish cause unjust."
Delegations of school boys from New
York aud Boston attended the meeting.

Chicago, April 13. A nonunion plas
terer, working iu the basomeut of the
Marshal Field building, Clark aud

charged by the contractors on this
building yesterday and their places
tilled by nonunion men. Today, a
union picket gained entrance to the
building by eluding the police, and af
ter knocking the nonunion plasterer
lowu with a club, escaped. The lu
lured man was unconscious when
found, and his skull may be fractured.
Tht 42 union meu employed in the

of lihotle Island. Accord
ing to statements made in the police
oourt when he was arraigned, he is

Washington, April 12. Tho presl
dent has ratified The Hague conven
tioua providing for universal arbitration
of international dirputes and for the
regulation of the use of warlike instru
ments. The Hague will Is? notified of
the ratifications through United States
Miuister Newell. Notwithstanding the
distance of the Washington government
from the scene of negotiations and the
place where the ratifications are to be
deposited, it is believed that the Uuited
Elates it second to only one of the
whole congress of nationt represented
at The Hague peace conference in per
fecting the formalities to give fnll effect
to the actiou of the conference. So far
as it is known the United States senate
was the first legislative body to approve
of tho two conventions agreed ujon at
the conference. The Dutch parliament
itself did not ratify the treaties until a
few days ago.
The next step in order will be the
selection of the persont who are to
serve the United States as members ol
the permanent board of arbitration, but
it is probable that this will not be
made until the state department has
received notice of the final adhesion to
the conventions of all the powers partiei
to their making.

for reinforcements, representing that
hie force is inadequate; that the men
are exhausted by the necessity of con
stant vigilance; that he is unable to
garrison the towns in his jurisdiction;
that the insurgent are returning to the
district aud killing the aminos, and
that it is necessary for him to indict
punishment iu several sections betore
the rainy season shall begin. General
James Bell, who is commanding in
Southern Luzon, has made similar rep
resentations. He says his force are
inadequate, and he merely holds few
towns, without controlling the terri
tory. The president of Samal, province of
Baar, Luzon, and another prominent
native, bave been assassinated because
they were known to be friendly to
Americans. The president of another
town has joined the Insurgent because
they had threatened to kill him if he
did not.
