Washington, Sept. 15.—The post­
master-general has received from F. W.
Vaille, director-general of posts in the
Philippines, copies of two undated
proclamations, one by the American
commissioners and the other by tbe in­
surgents.
The American proclama tion is of a
pacific character, but warns tbe natives
that they have nothing to expect from
continuing opposition to the Ameri­
cans. It promises free transportation
home to all insurgents who surrender
their arms, and directs the confiscation
of all money and hemp belonging to
the insurgent government. The na­
tives are notified that the American
Boldiers are expected to pay for every­
thing they obtain from the Filipinos in
the way of food and supplies, and it
requests the natives to report uny case
of looting or extortion to the nearest
military commander.
The Filipino proclamation, isued in
reply to this, announces that for a
period of 10 days amnesty w ill be ex­
tended to all Filipino spies in the em­
ploy of the American forces, if they
present themselves to the insurgent
military or civil authorities. A single
exception is made in tile case of one
Marcello Abinsav, who is denounced as
an outlaw beyond the pale, and a re­
ward is offered for his apprehension,
dead or alive, wdiile the death penalty
is pronounced ngaiu-t anyone found in
bis companv at the time of his capture.
The proclamation further declares that
ull the threats of tbe Americans of pur­
suing tho insuigeuts to the hills are
idle, as the American forces are short
of food and ammunition, and have re­
ceived no reinforcements for inanv
mouths.

of
Boston, Sept. 15.—The now famous
West Indian hurricane which started
10 days ago from the eastward of Porto
Rico, pushed across Cuba aud Jamaica
and jthreshed about the Gulf of Mexico,
entered New England yesterday and
inhabitants in this eorner of the coun­
try have nearly $1,000,000 to add to
the lengthening list of property which
this storm destroyed.
It started into life scores of wood
fires, and in many sections of New
England thousands of acres of wood­
land are ablaze and several scores of
houses have been burned. In South-
ern Massachusetts the losses will ag­
gregate a big sum. Reports are also
received form various parts of New
England of damage to the telegraph
and telephone wires, houses unroofed,
orchards denuded of their fruit and
great damage to standing corn and
other crops.
Tbe gale was also severe off the
coast, but it blew off shore, so that
most of the shipping found little diffi­
culty in getting a lee.
Highland light reported a gale of 45
miles an hour aud no vessels in sight.
Along the water front of Boston har­

Ne York, Sept. 17.—A dispatch to
the Tribune from Loudon says:
Tho Mail's oorrespomleut in Lonren-
co Marques learns that Mr. Krugei has
resigned the presidency of the Trans­
vaal, but remains a member of the ex­
ecutive. General Botha is said to have
been so iuceused at the cowardly con­
duct of his forces that he has resigned
the supreme command, aud Yiljoen is
now comumudaut-geueral. According
to a Lisbon inussage to the Express,
Mr. Kruger proposes to set up the seat
of his government at Mozambique.
News from the seat of war iu Konth
Africa is indecisive, hut it is clear that
Lord Roberts is making a concentrated
movement u|>ou Komatipoort, aud has
left Dretoira iu order to direct it per­
sonally. Ian Hamilton is returning to
the railway from Lydeuburg; Pole-
Carew is pushing east towards Nel
spruit; French is making for Barberton,
and Duller has divided both his forces
and cm off a portion of them from
comiiiiiiiicatiou with the commandos
between Nelspruit and Komatipoort.
Lydenburg appreutly was al»au.lolled as
soon as it w h h captured, and the Brit­
ish forces are in hot pursuit of the rem­
nant of the Boer arpiy. and driving it
eastward to the I’ortuguese frontier.
These tactics are hold, hut in accord­
ance with Loril Holierts' strategy since
February. Komatipoort is the new
objective point, and when it is captured
Lord Roberts will he oi edited with
having taken possession of «the last
Dutch railway line and closed the door
into neutral territory. The work of
pacification will not have been
thoroughly worked out, hnt the main
object will have been secured, aa was
done when liloinefonteiu and Pretoria

Brooklyn, N. Y., Sept. 14.— When
the new law ailopted by the last legis­
lature preventing the use ol trading
stamps went into effect the first ol this
month. Manager Buntty, of the trad­
ing stamp store, 1229 Fulton, issued a
circular anuouuciog that he would
cease operations today. Since the is­
suance ol the circular thousands of
women who held trading stamps issued
by the various stores doing business
with Buntty have besieged him and
made his life unbearable.
He has
been compelled to barrh-ade himself
and seek aid to prevent summary
action on the part of the infuriated
women.

London, Sept. 18.—In accordance
with the prediction of Sir Robert Hart
that there will be further hostilities
in China in Novemlier, the press un-
drestands that tha iiritish government
is already cousideriug the transfer of
troops from South Africa to India in
order to make it pructicah'e to send
more British troops to China. The
military authorities consider the war
in South Africa so far ended that
troops may now he safely moved.
ft is possible that the Russian lega­
tion has already been remove»! from
Dekin to Tien Tain, but there ia no
definite news as yet as to whether Li
Huug Chang will after all go to l’ekiu.
General Dorward is goiug to the capi­
tal, leaving the Dritish troops at Tien
Tsiu uuder command of Brigadier-Gen­
eral Campbell. Vice-Admiral Alex-
ieff has returned to Taku.
The Americans have begun at Ho Si
Wu a pernianeut telegraph Hue be­
tween Pekin aud Tieu Tsiu.
The Pekin correspomleut of the Daily
Mall says that the assassiu of Baron
von Ketteler lias been shot.
The Morniug Post’s representative at
Pekin says that the question is being
discusse»! of sending relief to a few
British, Frenoh and American engi­
neers, who are besieged in a city 200
miles south of Pekin.
Chinese officials estimate that 20,000
disbanded Chinese soldiers, by the
simple expedient of turning their coats,
managed to remain behind in Pekin.
Other dispatches confirm the report
that in addition to Hsu Tang, tha
guardian of the heir apparent, Yu Lu,
viceroy of Chi Li, and Wang Yi Yung,
president of the imperial academy,
with 200 members of official families,
committed suicide when the allies en­
