The foreign troopa practically gutted Shin Nan of everything worth taking, and the people thure are indignant at all foreigners. The missionaries attribute the murder to the leniency of the powerH toward China, which mnkcH thorn Hceme to be afraid.

Continuing, Mr. Warner said : "We must, of course, turn the island over to the Cubans, but it is a crime against humanity to withdraw at tliiH time. When our troopH leave the inland you will wltnesH a roign of lawh-HRneflH that will startle the world and compel uh, In the mime of justice, to take mutters into our own handB. The Cubans will sign anything or do anything to get up away from their property, and when they have the reins in their own hands, you can expect the worst. "From what I can leiirn, they will hhhohh everybody wit!) any money and have a division of the spoils. Tney will drive all Spaniards arid At.ierican sym pathizers from the island, and for a brief period will revel in loot. Iiw and order will become a mockery, and u date of anarchy will reiirn. "It iH foolishness to talk of the Cubans governing theiiiHclvcH at this time or for years to come. The iHland must become otirH eventually, and it seems a shume to undo all the progress made in two years.

AGUINALDO IS TRAPPED AT LAST A Prisoner in American Hands Caught by Ftinston Filipino Found in His Northern Hiding Place He is Now in a Manila Jail, Manila, March 28. General Fred erick Funoton's daring project for the capture ol Aguinaldo in his hiding place in the province of Isahela, island of Luzon, has proved completely successful. Aguinaldo was captured there on March L'.'iid. The I'nited States gunboat Vicksburg, Commander E. B. Barry, with General Funston and Aguinaldo on board, ar rived here this morning. Aguinaldo was brought ashore at 3:10 p. m., today and taken hefore General MacArthur at the Malacanang Palace, lie talked freely, but seemed ignorant concerning recent events. He appeared to be in good health and was even cheer ful. He lunched with the officers of General MacArthur'e staff, and was then escorted to the Enda-street jail. Aguinaldo's capture was attended with considerable difficulty, and insurgent major being killed at the time of the etent. Twenty rifles and a number of important paperB were captured. London, March 2S. A dispatch from Mauila says that several members of Aguinaldo's staff were captured with him and brought to Manila. The in surgent leader and bis men were captured near Casiguran, north of Baler. Where tlie Cupl-ue Vh Made. The province of Ieabela, where the capture of Aguinaldo occurred, is on the island of Luzon, about 200 miles north east of Mauila, and about 75 mileE north of Balei, on the eastern coast, which place was made memorable by the cap ture of Lieutenant Gilmore and his party from the guuboat Yorktown, in April, 189!). It is a wild and mountainous region. Rugged trails, iu some places being but a foot or two iu width, lead across the mountains, frequently crossed by rushing streams, and where these overflow their banks, the trails are waist deep in mud. It was to this uninviting district that General Funston und his small band went a short time ago. It was a part of the island that had never before been visited by American troops. Geueral Fuustan's plans, as outlined in a dispatch from Manila a few days ago, were to make the trip over the Isabela mountains to Aguinaldo's hiding place accompanied by a number of odicors six veterau scouts and a company of native scouts. Tlioy were to be guided by a former officer of Aguinaldo who had betrayed to Funston the abode of Aguinaldo. The native scouts were to assume the character of insurgents and to pretend that they had captured Funston and other officers of high rank and were tak ing them to the eaniy of the camp of the insurgent chief to be delivered as prison ers of war. At the proper moment all were to throw aside their assumed char acter and at all hazzardB capturu Aguin aldo. The news of the latter'e capture would indicate that the plans of General Funston iiave been carried out success fully. l'o i to iticaiio KiuIki'u'". Ponck, Porto Kico, March 27.
