TROUBLE MAY BE RENEWED. WILL RESIST THE IMS Samoan Commission Will Probably l’p. hold Admiral Kautz’ Policy. Scouting Party Encounters a Body of Insurgents. REINFORCED BY GEN. FUNSTON Six American« Were Wounded — Filipino CoinmiANioner« Go Back to Agui* ualdo for Further Instructions. Manila, May 27.—A scouting party of American troops encountered a body of insurgents at Santa Rita and the Americans being reinforced by Briga dier-General Funston, with the South Dakota regiment, a warm tight ensued. A lieutenant and live men of the Amer ican foice were wounded and ten of the insurgents were killed and several cap tured. Genreal Hughes, who has been ap pointed to relieve Colonel Smith, as governor of the Visayan district, will be succeeded as provost marshal by Brigadier-General Willston, who re cently arrived here in command of the Sixth artillery. The Filipino commissioners left by a special train yesterday. They will be escorted to their lines under a flag of truce, ft is expected they will return soon. President Gonzaga, of the com mission, previous to his departure, said: “We greatly appreciate the courtesj shown us. We have spent some time with your commissioners incidentally considering American annexation. Its principles impress us profoundly. The plan of government offered the Philip pines seems in theory to Be a good col onial system, but why should a nation seek to make a colony of a distant peo ple, who have been so long fighting against Spain to secure the same rights your annexation gives? You fought the same battle in America when you fought against England.” Two Engaffements. Washington, May 27.—General Otis today cabled the war department: “Manila, May 27.—On the 23d ¡list, the Third infantry, returning to Ba- liuag, was attacked in the morning, noon and evening bv a large force of the enemy, suffering in causalties two men killed and 13 wounded. The en emy was repulsed, leaving on the field 16 killed and a large number of wound ed and prisoners. Yesterday, the en emy appeared in the vicinity of San Fernando, and was attacked by the Kansas and Montana regiments, which suffered slight loss. The enemy was driven through rice fields, leaving 50 dead and 38 wounded and 28 prisoners; 50 rifles and other property were cap tured. The retreat through swamp lands saved the enemy from destruc tion. Lawton is returning, leaving with MacArtiiur on the front regular troops to replace the volunteers.” THE FEUD RENEWED. Gomez and the Assembly Leaders Again at Outs. Havana, May 27.—The feud between General Gomez and the old Cuban assembly has been renewed. General Gomez’ manifec’o, issued to the sol diers today, advising them to give up their arms and return peacefully to their homes, will be met tomorrow by a strong manifesto from a majority of the Cuban chiefs urging the soldiers not to accept any part of the $3,000,060 offered by the United States, but to deband and keep their arms. A meeting was held this afternoon at the home of General Maya Rodri gues and attended by the anti-Gomea officers in the Cuban army. Strong anti-Amer.ican sentiments were ex pressed. Gomez was called a ‘‘traitor to Cuba libre” and severely scored for entering into the last negotiations with General Brooke without consulting the representatinves of the army. His actions were construed by the speakers as an effort to further his own political aggrandizement. It was voted unani mously to use all means to prevent the soldiers from surrendering their arms. In addition to the manifesto, General Rodriguez will send a personal letter to the soldiers asking them not to ac cept United States money. Apia. Samoa, May 27. — The Samoan commission, consisting of Bartlett Tripp, former United States minister i to Austria-Hungary; Baron Speck von ' Steinberg, representing Germany, and ' C. H. Eliot, C. B , of the British embassy at Washington, representing Great Britain, arrived here on May 13. Their first sitting took place on May 16. The commissioners were engaged all the morning in a conference with Chief Justice Chambers. Nothing is disclosed regarding the deliberations, but it is reported they will uphold the action of Admiral Kautz, the American naval commander. Mataafa sent the commissioners a letter of welcome, and expressed the hope that they would satisfactorily end the troubles in Samoa. It is understood Mataafa will obej' the unanimous order of the commis sion, though it is doubtful whether he will order his followers to disarm, un less the Malietoans are first disarmed. The Mataafans will probably disperse to their homes if ordered Jo do so, but they will never recognize Malietoa as king, and doubtless there will be further trouble in the future, if the kingship is maintained. Only one oi two cases are known of the wounding of natives by the shell tire of the war ships, and as they have not realized tho strength of the Europeans, they may go to greater extremes if war arises again. The rebels remain outside the lines indicated by the admiral, and have stiongly fortified a new position, while the loyalists are being drilled and have fortified Milnnuu. A con siderable number of loyalists have been brought in by the warships from other islands. Half the male adults of Samoa are awaiting action ou the part of the commission in order to support Malietoa. The Germans are preparing compensation claims. A correspondent reports Mataafa as saying it was the head chiefs and not himself who be gan the war. Mataafa claimed he lias upheld the treaty and said his orders throughout were not to fire upon Eu ropeans, and but for this order the whole party of blue-jackets would sev eral times have been shot down by large bodies of natives concealed in the bush. China Preparing for War in San Mun Bay. ORDERS ISSUED TO VICEROYS Germans May Al«o Be Driven Out of Shan Tung Peninsula—Another Ex pedition in Search of Andree. London, May 29. — The Shanghai cor respondent of the Daily Mail says: Orders have been issued from Peking directing the viceroys and governors of the neighboring provinces to put al) their forces on a war footing, owing to the arrival of six Italian warships in San Mun haibor. It is thouhgt also that the Chinese propose to drive the Germans from Shan Tung peninsula. SEARCH FOR ANDREE. Another Expedition lias Gone to Look for the Missing Aeronaut. Copenhagen, May 29.—The expedi tion under Professor A. G. Natliorst, which is to search along the northeast coast of Greenland for Professoi An dree, the missing aeronaut, has sailed from Helsinborg, Sweden. Professor Nathorst’s relief party sailed ou the steam whaler Antarctic, of which he is part owner. A wealthy Norwegian merchant named Ilammes will defray almost the entire cost of the expedi tion. After carefully examining the region between the seventy-third and seventy fifth degrees, north latitude. Professor j Nathorst will proceed toward Cape Bismarck, on the east coast of Green land, in the hope of meeting Captain ' Sneverdrup’s expedition, which left Cbristinia last June on the Frarn. His theory is that Andree, if alive, is prob-1 ably on the northeastern coast of Greenland. He argues that if the mis sing aeronaut landed in Greenland and tooK the east coast route to the south, I several years must elapse before he could work lrie way without ship to the nearest settlement. The releif party consists of six scien-. title men besides Dr. Nathorst and a crew of 13. Tho plan is to head for DISRUPTION IS THREATENED.

Washington, May 29.—President McKinley will visit Oregon during his summer vacation, unless his present plans are upset. He will be there in , time to visit the Second Oregon volun teers after they rvturn from Manila. He will go to Yellowstone Park, and to every state that had volunteers in the' Philippines, according to the present plane, if the state troops are all re turned before September.

St. Johns, N. B., May 27.—Fire that broke out in a building adjoining the general warehouse of P. Nase & Sons, Main street, north end, this afternoon, did enormous damage.

Dawson City Again Threatened With Deadly Disease. Dawson, via San Francisco, May 29. — With the return of spring to Dawson, come renewed fears of pestilence and death. Stringent sanitary measures are being adopted. Health Officer Good has posted public notices through out the town, forbidding'all persons to gather ice or take water from the Yu kon at an point neaier than a mile above the city. The Yukon council is planning a system of drainage for the flats upon which the city is situated and an ordinance has been passed re quiring the inhabitants to use the ut most care in cleaning their piemises prior to the breaking up of the river. Ntwithstanding all these precautions, physicians predict an unusual preva lence of typhoid, owing to the accumu lated filth of winter which now encum bers the site of tbe city.
