Manila, Oct. 30.—The constabulary
report a fight with insurgents near
Passi, province of Ho Ilo, isjand of
Panay, in which 25 insurgents were
killed, together with a quantity of
arms and ammunition captured.
News from General Hughes regard
ing conditions in Cebu are encourag­
ing. Lorega surrendered with his
entire force and one cannon and
seven rifles, while General Hughes is
negotiating for the surrender of
Maxilo, who styles himself “Governor
Politico-Militar.” His surrender will
mean the pacification of the island.
Lack of food and the harrassing
effects of the aggressive tactics now
pursued by the American forces are
having their influence upon the na­
tives. In many places, where rice is
doled out by the government, only
enough is given for one meal, so that
it is hardly possible for any large
amount to find its way to the insurg­
ents. It is believed that the recent
manifestations in the island of Samar
were chiefly due to the lack of food.
The first labor problem growing out
of the new tariff has arisen. A hat
and umbrella factory, employing GOO
hands, has found it necessary to close.
The lawyers are making a protest to
the commission, urging protection,
as the same goods from Germany can
be sold at half the price it takes to
manufacture them here.
In an attack by insurgents on the
municipal police and scouts at Sa-
bang, one scout was killed and two of
the police were captured. The in­
surgents secured two Krag-Jorgenson
rifles, two shotguns and 200 rounds
of ammunition.
Dispatches
from
Catbalogan,
Samar, say that stringent and ener­
getic measures are being taken to sup­
press the insurrection in that island.
General Smith has notified all the
presidents and head men of the pueb­
los that they must surrender all arms
and turn over the persons implicated
in the Balangiga massacre before
November 6, threatening that other­
wise the presidents will be sent to the
island of Guam, the village destroyed
and the property confiscated.

INSPECTOR’S REPORT.
Increase in Loss of Life on Steamboats Last
Year.
Washington, Oct. 28.—The annual
report of General James A. Dumont,
supervising Inspector General of
steam vessels the last fiscal year, has
been made public. It shows that 9,773
vessels were inspected during the
year, a decrease of 80 from the figures
for the proceeding year. The total
loss of life on steam vessels last year
was 340, an increase of 140 over the
previous year.
By the loss of the
steamer Rio de Janeiro at San Fran­
cisco last February 127 lives were lost.
General Dumont adivses that sec­
tion 4490 of the revised statutes, pro
viding for at least three water tight
compartments in all sea-going and
coastwise steamers, be amended to in­
clude all passenger and ferry boats
hereafter built of 500 tons and up­
ward, regardless of the watesr they
navigate, and further, that th
number of passengers be liimited on
ferry boats running routes exceed­

Czolgosz, the Assassin, Dies In
the Electric Chair.
MET FATE WITH BRUTAL INDIFFERENCE
Refuied to Accept Religiou* Coniolation or to
Renounce Anarchy—Body Buried In
Priion Grounds—No Ceremony.
Auburn, N. Y., Oct 29.—Leon Czol­
gosz, the assassin of President Mc­
Kinley, was electrocuted at 7:12:30.
Czolgosz passed a quiet night. He
slept nearly all night. He awoke
finally at 4:45 o’clock.
He suffered a sight nervous attack
late yesterday, but remained sullen
and stoic up to the time the prison
closed at 10 o’clock. He refused to
heed the words of the priests who
came to urge spiritual preparation
for death and declined to re-embrace
Roman Catholicism or to renounce
anarchism.
Czolgosz showed no
strength of love for kin. nor did he
turn to any of those higher consider­
ations which ordinarily claim the
thoughts of men occupying his posi­
tion. He may have suffered untold
torture, but outwardly he seemed
sullen and indifferent. The state is
not to surrender possession of his
body, and by sundown it will have
been secretly interred in ground con­
trolled by the officials of Auburn
prison.
Czolgosz held his last two inter­
views last night, the first with Super­
intendent Collins and the second
with his brother and brother-in-law.
Both of the interviews were brief.
The interviewers did most of the
talking until the question of religion
was mentioned, when Czolgosz broke
from his seeming lethargy and vio­
lently denounced the church and the
clergy and made his relatives promise
that there should be no service for
him, living or dead.
When his
brother and brother-in-law bid him
farewell, he turned and walked to
the other side of the cell and refused
to answer them.

Salt Lake, Utah, Oct. 29.—A tele­
phone message from Bingham, Utah,
tonight states that up to 10 P. M.,
rescuing parties had failed to reach
Charles Nutting and William Ander­
son, the two miners who were entomb­
ed in a cave-in in the Highland Boy
mine.
At that hour it was not
known whether the imprisoned men
were dead or alive, their signals hav­
ing ceased after midnight last night.
Great difficulty is being encountered
in reaching the place where the men
are located. The walls of the tunnel
are constantly crumbling, not only
impeding the work of rescue, but also
endangering the lives of the miners
who were endeavoring to save their
entombed comrades.

London, Oct. 29.—Reynolds Week­

tions have been performed for the re­
moval of papilloma on the left vocal
choid and that one was removed from
the right vocal chord last week.
“Assistance was hastly summoned,”
says this journal, “as his majesty was

But it is regarded as only a temporary
relief, the injured epithelium now­
having become a cancerous growth,
and serious developments are ex­
pected. ”

Many V<**el> On the North Coast Forced to

Vancouver, Oct. 30.—The severest
storm of the season broke over the
Northern coast last week, and for
three days shipping was nearly at a
standstill. Skagway steamers were
forced to seek shelter and the steam­
ers New England and Capilano,
which have arrived here, report that
the sea was the roughest seen on the
north coast for a year.
The greatest damage done was at
Port Essington, just above the Indian
village of Iverness. There the build­
ing of the Church of England has
been leveled by the storm and half a
dozen other buildings were blown over
and pieces of their roofs scattered for
half a mile up the river.
Pulled a Lamp From the Table.
Alleghany, Pa., Oct. 30.—Thir-
teen-months-old Robbie Busier to­

table and was fatally burned. His
mother, in her efforts to save the
baby, was seriously burned about the

painfully burned while extinguishing
the flames. Mrs. Busier ran into the
yard with her clothing ablaze and it
became necessary literally to tear the
clothing from her.

Leavenworth, Kan., Oct. 30.—By

tearing out the breech, fragments of
which struck and injured the men.

Chicago, Oct. 29.—Regeneration of
