Washington, November 24 General Otis sent a dispatch to the War Depart ment today In which he says that the Filipino Government can no longer claim to exist; that its troops and official!) are scattered, and that Aguinaldo is in hiding. The dispatch follows: "Claim to governmeat by insurgents can be made no longer under any fiction Treasurer, Secretary of the Interior and President of Congress in our hands; President and remaining Cabinet officers in hiding, evidently in different Central Luzon previnces; generals and troops in small bands scattered through these provinces acting as banditti or dispersed playing the role of 'omigos,' with arms concealed. Indications are that Aguin aldo did not escape through the lines of LawUn or Wheaton, but lied westward from Bayambang railway station.

X ABSGWlEErVURE Makes the food more deficiotis and w&olesome WCTtH. sWCIWsj wafOVM BY General Methuen's Army Column Fights Its Way. Battle of Ores Pan. Hard Fonr Hoars Battle. - Boer tWrea Off. Boers Retiring May be Weak ness. Losses Heavy on Both Sides. London, Nov. 29 Another battle Las been fought by Gen. Lord Paul Methu en's column, whjph is advancing to the relief of Kimberley. The battle occurred Saturday morning, but news of it was not sent out until yes terday. The British censorship con tinues strict. The scene of the Tight was near Gras Pan, la Western Cape Colony. Gras Pan is ten miles north of Belmont, aud 40 miles south of Kimberley. It is on the railroad line alonir which General Methuen Is advancing. The official report uf the British coji mander states the Boers retreated, but he does not give many details, leaving it an open question whether tne result was ou the whole favorable to the Brit ish. He says the Boer force engaged numbered 2,500. These were doubtless Free Staters, who have been operating iu that vicinity. The British force was about 7,000 men. It is known, telegraphs General Methue'ii, that the Boers lost at least 31 killed and 48 wounded. The British loss is not stated, but is presum ably heavy, as the British commander say: "The euemy showed the greatest stubbornness." Gen. Methuen's foice will halt one day at Gras I'an to rest and replenish ammunition. General Methuen is now in hellsraphic communication with Kimberley. General Joubert, it is reported, is re tiring from Mooi river, Natal, to Lady smith, and signs point to a strong Boer expedition for the capture of White's army. A dispatch from Pretoria, dated last Friday, says the Boers expected to capture Lady smith "at the end of this week." The British had almost ceased to reply to the Boer artillery fire, indicating perhaps, that their ammunition was ex hausted. Following the supposed retire ment of the Boers, the British have re stored telegraphic communicttioti with Eslcourt. On (be other hand, the retirement o'. the Boers may be a sign of weakness. An Estcourt dispa.ch Indicates that it is be cause they lack food. General llildyard, who commanded the British troop) at Ladysmitn, has advanced northward to Frere. Gen. Sir Redvers Buller, British commander-in-chief in South Africa, has ai rived at Durban from Cape Town, and started northward. WILL ATTEND CAUCUS. Roberts Claims All Rights Of a Democratic Member. Washington, November 2(i-Repre Mutative Roberts, of Utah, wuose ad mission to the House ot Representatives will be opposed on tbe ground that he Is a polygamtst, was elected as a Democrat, and much Interest Is felt as to his treat ment by the Democratic caucus.

I was elected aa a Demecral by Democratic voters, and there can be no question as to my right to attend llie caucus." Much as some of the Democratic Rep resentatives would like "to have Mr. Roberts refrain ftwm attending tbe cauous, It Is not believed there will be any effort to rule him out.

Some Rosults of Expansion President John Barrows, of Oberlin College, has contributed an article on "Our National Thanksgiving" to the current number of the t ongregatlonalist in which be says: "At the I'cace Jubilee in Chicago In October, 1898, one of the speakers de elated the battle of Manila to be the greatest event in American history since Lincoln's proclamation of emancipation. Benjamin Kidd, the English writer, was present on that occasion. Some time af terward, at a banquet given to him in New York, he spoke of Dewey's victory as the chief event Bince Waterloo. Prof. Giddings of Columbia University, at the same banquet declared it to be the lead ing histoiical event since the crushing defeat of the Saracens at Tours. How can we justify such strong declarations ? That victory of May 1, 1808, not only hblped the speedy subjection of Spain but lifted the Hag of American suprema cy at the veiy gates of the far Kast. The smoke of that battle had hardly cleared away before we saw the shadow of the great American republic flung vast, beneficent and far over the tropic iiles and populous coasts of Asia. Thus, in a new and unexampled sense, America has become a world power. And the people have clearly expressed unalterable pur pose to remain such. 1 he luener, more contideut, more aspiring Americanism, utterly t-cornful of the pessimistic de tractions of our national vigor and vir tue, lias accepted as divine providences the results of the war which no one foresaw. "We are thankful thi.t under able, humane, patient and far seeing leader ship America is taking her proper place among the nations. VVc are honorably represented iu the great European capl til. At ihe Peace Conference America was a commanding and beneficent power. For the approajhiug exposition in Paris America is able lo secure a larger area than France gave to an.' other nation, excepting Russia. This was largely due, our commissioner tells us, to the new prestige whicb is one of the results of the Spanish-American war. England has bien drawn closer to us than ever before. An American missionary writes from Yokohama that the old English temper and habit of offensive superiority to al1 things American have disappear ed. The American who has traveled to many lands is grau fill fortius change. Many American consuls informed our Peace Commissioner iu Paris of the mar velous additional respect paid to Ameri ca in all European countries, Including Turkey " When in Bayboro stop at tbe Lupton House for eood accommodations Bagging and Ties.
