Greensboro, N. C, March 30. Spe cial. There is no doubt that sentiment against the prosecution of the Demo cratic registrars in the Federal Courts is growing among Republicans of stand ing aad influence iu party councils. The Post correspondent has talked with one . t-n Tfpnublicans who have changed front on the question and say that they would not object to seeing the prosecu tion dropoed. 'A well known Democrat said this morning that he did not doubt that the prosecution would be abandon ed, adding that he had been told by one of the strongest Republicans in the State that this was the wise course to pursue. It is untlerstooo mat oi-' Pritchard, who will arrive in (ireensboro Monday, will advise that the cases against the registrars be abandoned.

It is construed from this that German officials accept the assurances of the Russian government to the effect that the convention with China has been for mulated solely for the purpose of pro tecting Siberia during the unsettled state of affairs that prevails, and that they are readv to believe that the troops of the Czar will be withdrawn from Man- nave reacneu viously given, if that authority were valid in itself, as to rights held under the law of North Carolina declared valid before the bonds were issued.

The Secretary of War per sonally joins him in this expression." The question "of rewarding General Fuuston for the capture of Aguinaldo is still undeteKmined, Klthought the friends of the Kansas soldier are confident that he will be made a brigadier general in the Tegular army.

They - formed 3. part of. the dispatch conveying the President's thanks to General Fun ston and the men who accompanied him on his expedition to Palanan, but ve,re witheld from publication. It is learned ' ,.-... -i that these, instructions do nof permit General MacArthur to make any prom ises to Aguinaldo or give him any assur- a nee not contained in the general proc lamation of amnesty issued to the in habitants of the Philippine Islands last .June. General MacArthur is . author ized to extend to Aguinaldo all the priv .' ilekes contained in that -proclamation pro- . yided he does not come within its pro- : hibitions. - The particular prohibition which General .MacArthur will consider v is considered in the following sentence: , "The privilege herewith published is . extended to all concerned without any . reservation whatever, excepting that per- -sons Who have violated the laws of war during the period of active hostilities are not embraced within the scope of this amnesty." k The first question, therefore to be' de termined by General MacArthur under his instructions is whether or not Agtii naldo violated the articles of war. Should it be determined that Aguinaldo wrs guilty of any. such offense there is no way in nvhich he can escape trial for such unlawful actions. lTnier the terms of the proclamation issued by General J INlacArthur December 20.
