Americans Making Things Warm
for the Insurgents.
KILLED THIRTEEN AND CAPTURED FIVE
A Large Force In Luzon Alio Surrendered—
Americans Endure Great Hardship—
Russian Warship at Manila>
Washington, Jan. 13.—The Navj
Department today received the follow­
ing cablegram from Rear-Admiral
Rodgers, at Cavite:
"Waller reports having completed a
ten days’ march across Samar from
I^snang to Bahey. Column endured
great hardships. Killed 13 insurgents
and captured captain and four men.
Surrenders in Batangas.
Manila, Jan. 13.—Colonel Marisen-
gan, Major Cabrera and a renegade
priest named Castillo, who stole a
valuable image of the Virgin from a
church, for which he obtained a large
sum of money, have surrendered un­
conditionally to General Bell, who is
conducting the campaign against the
insurgents in Batangas
Province.
They had control of the District of
ToaeJ, extending westward to the sea,
including the towns of Banan and
Guenoa. The agreement is that the
chiefs shall absolutely surrender
every man and gun in their district.
It is estimated that 160 guns will be
turned in. Many men and guns have
been captured during the past few
days, and small engagements occur
dally. General Bell visited the city
for four hours today, and had a con-
ferrence with General Chaffee. He
says the present campaign is secur­
ing valuable results, and that it is pos­
sible Malavar, the insurgent leader,
will surrender next week.
The United States Commission has
appropriated $2,500,000 for insular ex­
penses during the first quarter of the
year.
Admiral Tschoukhnine, with the
Russian warships, has arrived here.
NEARLY UNANIMOUS.
House Passes the
Original Canal
Bill by a
Vote of 308 to 2.
Washington, Jan. 10.—The Hep­
burn Nicaragua Canal bill passed the
House late yesterday afternoon by
practically a unanimous vote. Only
two members out of 310 voted against
it.
The opposition to committing the
Government to the Nicaragua route
attempted to secure amendments to
lodge with the President the discre­
tionary power to purchase and com­
plete the Panama Canal, if it could be
purchased for $40,000,000. The test
C8me on the first vote, when the advo­
cates of an alternative route polled
102 against 170 votes. At each suc­
ceeding vote their strength dwindled
until Cannon (Rep.. Ill.), under whose
leadership the fight was carried on,
was unable to get the aye and no vote
on a motion to recommit. All other
amendments failed, and the bill was
passed exactly as it came from the
committee. None of the votes, ex­
cept that on the final passage of the
bill, was a record vote.
The bill as passed today authorizes
the President to secure from the states
of Costa Rica and Nicaragua, in be­
half of the United States, control of
such a portion of the territory belong­
ing to said states as may be desirable
and necessary, on which to excavate,
construct and protect a canal suitable
to the wants of modern navigation
and commerce and appropriate such a
sum as may be necessary to secure
the control of said territory.
Section 2 authorizes the President
after securing control of the needed
territory, to direct the Secretary of
War to construct such a canal from
the Caribbean Sea, at a point near
Greytown, in Nicaragua, by way of
Lake Nicaragua, to a point on the
Pacific ocean near Brito, and also to
construct proper harbors at the ter­
mini of said canal and to make nec­
essary provisions for the defense of
the canal and harbors.
Sections 3 and 4 authorizes the
President to make such surveys as
may be necessary and to employ such
persons in constructing the canal as
may to him seem wise, and directs
that in the construction of the canal
the river San Juan and Lake Nica­
ragua shall be used as far as they are
available.
Section 5 authorizes the President
to guarantee to the states of Costa
Rica and Nicaragua the use of the
canal and the harbors upon terms to
he agreed upon for vessels owned by
cHIzens thereof.
The last section makes a present
appropriation of $10,000,000 to carry
on this work and authorizes the Sec­
retary of War to enter proper con­
tracts for material and work as may
ho deemed necessary therefor, such
work and material to be paid for as
appropriations mav he made from time
to time. The section fixes the aggre­
gate cost at $180,000,000. to be drawn
from the treasury on warrants of the
President.
HISTORY OF GOLD SUPPLY.
SMASH IN A TUNNEL.
Fifteen
Persons Killed end Thirty or More
Injured in a New York Wreck.
New York, Jan. 10.—In the New
York Central tunnel, that burrows un­
der Park avenue, this city, two local
trains collided today. Fifteen passen­
gers were kilted and twice that num­
ber were injured. A dozen of the lat­
ter were seriously hurt, and the roster
of the dead may be extended.
It was a rear-end collision between
the South Norwalk local, that ran
over the New Y’ork, New Haven &
Hartford road, and was halted by
block signals at the southern entrance
of the tunnel, and a White Plains lo­
cal, that came by the Harlem branch
of the New York Central. The wreck
occurred at 8:17 a. m., at which hour
the trains are crowded by suburban­
ites. Most of the deaths, injuries
and damage was caused by the engine
of the White Plains train, which
plunged into the rear car of the mo­
tionless train, and was driven through
to the middle of the car, smashing the
seats and splitting the sides as it
moved forward. The victims either
were mangled in the mass of wreck­
age carried with the pilot, crushed in
the space between the boiler and car
sides, or scalded by steam, which
came hissing from broken pipes and
cylinder». The engine, in its final
plunge of forty feet, carried the rear
car forward and sent twisted iron,
broken timbers and splinters crashing
into the coach ahead. Lights were ex­
tinguished and from the wreckage and
darkness came the cries of injured
and calls for assistance by those who
escaped. Within a few minutes the
work of rescue, marked by heroism
and sacrifice, began.
Alarms that
brought every available ambulance in
the city, the police reserves of five
precincts and the firemen of the cen­
tral eastern district of Manhattan
were sounded at once. With police,
firemen and surgeons came a score of
volunteer physicians and half a dozen
clergymen. Ladders were run down
the tunnel air shafts and the firemen
and police attacked the debris with
ropes and axes. The passengers al­
ready had rallied and were trying to
release those imprisoned in the de­
bris.
ALASKA SHIP LOST.
Captain and Six of Crew
Went Down
with
Her—Was a Collier.
Vancouver, B. C., Jan. 10.—News oi
another marine disaster was brought
from the north this evening by the
steamer City of Seattle, arriving from
Skagway. The steamer Bristol, one
of the oldest and best-known carriers
of the coast, lies a wreck on the end
of Green island, forty miles from Port
Simpson, and her captain, with six
members of the crew, have gone to
the bottom with her. The steamer
was on her way from Ladysmith, Van­
couver island, to the Treadwell mine
on Douglas island, Alaska, with 2500
tons of coal. She was wrecked on
the night of January 2, and is now
nearly out of sight at high tide. Pas­
sengers arriving tonight by the Se
attle give complete accounts of the
disaster.
Green island lies right in the route
of Alaska steamers, and, being low
and small, is Impossible to see on a
dark night. The steamer was trying
to make Dixon entrance in a rough
sea when she went aground. It was
11 o’clock when she struck, and seas
washed over her stern. The captain
ordered out the boats. Three were
safely launched and got away in the
darkness. The fourth was probably
smashed against the side of the ship.
It has not been found, and there is no
trace of it, or of the seven men who
were to have gone aboard, and for
whom all hope has been given up.
No Reply from Castro.
Berlin, Jan. 10.—The attention of
the foreign office has been directed to
the recurrence of statements to the
effect that Germany is about to send
an ultimatum to Venezuela. The for­
eign office has again informed the
correspondent here of the Associated
Press that a reply from President
Castro, of Venezuela, to the note hand­
ed him January 2 by the German
charge d’affaires at Caracas has not
yet been received; that Germany will
give Castro a reasonable time in
which to reply, and that she has no
disposition to unduly press the presi­
dent of Venezuela.

NEW SHELL INVENTED.
Contains Nitro-Glycerine and
Has Proven to
Be Very Destructive.
Oakland!! Cal., Jan. 8.—B. C. Pettin-
gell, of this city, has invented a nitro­
glycerine projectile, which, if the
claims of the inventor hold good will
prove of great importance. The mech­
anism of the invention is a secret, and
ePttingell is now negotiating with the
United States government for the sale
of the device. The matter will be con­
sidered by the ordnance department
today. ,
The invention, Pettingell says, is a
shell that will carry without the least
concussion from 50 to 200 pounds of
glycerine oil as far as the ordinary
shell can be fired by ordinary modern
ordnance. The concussion necessary
to project the shell, he says, is by his
device reflected back to the sides of
the shell, so that the glycerine oil is
not disturbed in the least.
