RESISTANCE TERMINATES IN NORTH PHILIPPINES ANNOUNCEMENT OF MALVAR'S SURRENDER CAUSES GREATEST REJOICING IN PROVINCES OF LAGUNA, BATANGAS AND CA VITE. , Washington, April 16. The war de partment has received a icablegraim from Gen. Chaffee dated Manila today in which he says: "Unconditional surrender Malvar to day to Brigadier-General J. F. Bell. Organized armed resistance to United States terminated department north Philippine." Manila, April 16. Malvar is the last of the great rebel generals. His sur render is the climax of General Whea ton's severe policy, inaugurated last Pecember by Gen. Bell, when he estab lished protected zones and reconcen tration camps. These camps were erro neously supposed to be similar to those of Weyler in Ouba. . , They are quite the contrary. In the Philippine camps not a single case of starvation has ibeen recorded and the death rate is 'below that of the neigh boring provinces. A majority of the peasants are ibetter fed, better housed and better protected than they were formerly. -Iri.th meantime, these people are co operating with native veterners, who are relentlessly rounding up the rebels. Their work has resulted in the capture or surrender of 3500 riflemen and hun dreds of store houses, with enormous provisions idi..supplie .pf 4 ammimltion.

Senator PVitchard, with Congressmen Moody and Blackburn called at the White House this morning and had a lengthy talk with the president in regard to aouthern representation in -the cabinet. SJenator Pritehard was authorized to seak for the southern republicans in congress as the visit is the result of a concerted! movement for a southern inan in the cabinet. J The senator pointed out to the presi dent the fact that one-third of the coun try in point of population is ignored in Cabinet representation. The difficulty of making headway with republican principles unless there is an evident willingness on the part of the adminis tration to aid in building up the party in the south and the necessity for re futing the assertion that the republi can party is a party of sectionalism. The. president looks with favor on the suggestion and stated that he would like to conform to it, but there was no immediate prospect of a vacancy in his official family. When seen in regard to the visit, Senator Pritehard declined to discuss the president's utterances at this time. .

The senate passed the Piatt substitute for the Chinese exclusion bill late this afternoon, toy a vote of 76 to l. Hoar was the only senatot voting in the negative. The substitute was not passed, however, until it was amended in some important respects. The substitute extends to continue the present Chinese exclusion laws until 1904. It also makes those laws apply to the insular possessions of the United States, and prohibits Chinese not citi zens of the United States from passing between those places and the United States. A section is added reinforcing the law requiring that the Chinese in the Unit ed States should toe registered and cer tificates obtained thereof.
