TBI VISITOR tim: NUMBER 8.838 STEADY PROGRESS McArtliur's Men Rst before . Advancing further WASHINGTON, April 1. General Otis cables that quiet prevail. They bare directed troops at Maloloa and on the railroad on reconnoitering duty. They ttnd tbe insurgents not only small portions of tbe surrounding country, who retire on our approach. Few of our troop are moving to their new position. The preparing is continued for an active campaign. The army is in excellent spirit.. The American troops ere having a much needed rest at Maiolos. Today Uen M&cArthur established headquar ters in the "former Filipino hall of con gress and the troops are making them selves a comfortable a possible. Xbe army 'gunboats will take a position at' the base of the river when Calumpit la attacked." Ah armored train is in read iness to be used further north when the advance is resumtd. The absence of extensive camp debris on the ground cap tured by the Americans during the past week indicates that the enemy's force is greatly exaggerated. ' ISNCOURAUING. WASHINGTON, April l.-tfhe war department regards Ous' despatch as strongly encouraging. It looks as f Aguiualdo and his followers are dis couraged and demoralized by the hard campaign. ' It seems the rebel chief is unable, even if so disposed, to take a new position.' It may be does not wish to reunite his forces just at present. The war department officials Bay he has in their opinion, been very severely pun ished and it is very likely that It is his deliberate intent by his shrewd method of warfare to keep his army scattered in the Northern region until the men can rest for another encounter with the Americans. ,' AMICABLE ADJUSTMENT Germany and the United States Reach an Agreement. BERLIN, April 1. After the acting Minister of Foreign Affairs had been closeted with the Emperor today United states Ambassador White passed an hour in the foreign office. It is generally believed that an understanding has been reached likely to effect an amicable and satisfactory solution of the whoje. Sa moan difficulty. . ' It is understood that while the United States and Great Britain have steadily declined to accept Germany's two pre vious proposals a new one will be ac cepted by all three yowers. According to a high German official, "American proposition are found satisfactory, and we accepted their proposal." This con sists in a plan to send a commission of investigation to Samoa. VAHlNGaX.N7"April 1. The new proposal referred to in the Berlin de spatch will be accepted by all three gov ernments. It provides for a joint high commission, that Ifcing the only propo sition pending. The British government had not signified its formal acceptance at noon today. Acting officials in the foreign office, however, take such a favorable view that British acceptance is considered assured. ONLY. 0NS SAVED. BRIGHTON, l7i.A.VD, April 1.

Leach, of the Second Ward, as our next Mayor. I have known Mr. Leach for twenty-five years as a business man and cttisra, and the Second Ward voters agree in what the voter says. Mr. Leach Is broad, liberal and expan sive in all his views, knows every clash of our citizens and has dealt with them in almost every capacity and always satisfactorily. Mr. Leach was the first member of a board of aldermen years ago, to at tempt an issue of hoods for water and has always supported a tax for schools and such Improvements liberally, but prudently. !!J He presides over public meetings with ease, firmness and grace, having by na ture these qualifications, well balanced, he is much above the average as a pub ing his efforts in representing the aty ss He speaker and on any occasion requir its Mayor, would do credit in such capacity. The voters of the city could do no better than to elect Mr. Leeh as its next Mayor. SBOON DWARD VOTER. BLIND AND DRUNK Two Offloers Struggle with a Blind Man. Jacob liobbs was arraigned before Mayor l'owell this morning on the charge of disorderly conduct. The pecu liarity of Hohbs' case is the fact that he was blind and drunk. This seems to have rendered him peculiarly danger ous. Two policemen were required to arrest Hobbs and land him safely in the station house. Notwithstanding his blindness he put up a good fight. The Mayor instructed Officer Mullen to con duct Hobbs to the city limit and put him on- the road to another town. BRIEFS Mr. William L. Mcrheeters left for Atlanta today. April's fool day is upon us and fools are still among us. The comedy event of the season will be "A Breezy Time." IMni Mu latest tumna and donees abound in "A Breezy Time." Capt. W. H.

C. Hlnton has returned from Wake Forest where he sold goods fot Cros snad Linehan. Next Monday the market will be dos ed from 11 in the morning until 8:30 in the evening. Kev. H. O.

I would like to make a suggestion in regard to the cruiser Raleigh. Why not let her steam up Walnut creek and bombard, th water work headquarters, and per haps tbe jar would enable us to cttr better supply of water, t think of all suggestion this would be more accepta J- " ble to the dttseo ox our capiw w h7f' Trf'i,, 0Mn'; in the late un ly defended it name in the late un pleasantness.' 1KB DONKEY.

T- f l'l ' " 1 RALEIGH'S ITER PROBLEM. llfcB THE ABOVE CUTIS REPRODUCED FROM 'THE RECORD" OF PHILADELPHIA, THE AUTHORITIES OF WHICH CITY ARE NOW WRESTLING WITH A CONTAMINATED WATER SUPPLY. THE SITUATION FINDS A COUNTERPART IN RALEIGH. MAYOR RUSS' WARNINGS UNHEEDED, Ijj EVERY ONE OF HIS ANNUAL REPORTS MR. RUSS POINTBD OUT THE DANGER TO OUR WATER SUPPLY AND MADE SUBSTANTIALLY THE S AME RECOMMENDATIONS - WHICH THE -PHYSICIANS HAVE SINCE MADE BUT THE ALDKRMEM IG NORED THE MATTER. Th following is found in Mayor Kuss' report for the year ending February 29, 1897: The report of the city official) fyr the year ending February 29, 1898, has never been published. "Tha importance of preserving the purity of the water furnished us for drinking purposes is simply inestimable. It is your duty therefore to throw around the shed every safeguard that science and common sense suggest. Its con tamination menus the toss of many bu- main Uvea. lon't wait until an epi-1 demic occurs to take action, it s coo , late then. Do your duty now, wbethei you get to be an aldermen again or not "1. Require tbe Water Company to pipe off tbe drainage of the town of Oary, to the Orahtree shed. I am re liably informed it is entirely practicable. "U. Force them to tear out the dam at Otstleherry' mill, known a "Little Xeates." This pond to a trap for catch tog and propagating disease germs brought down by storm water. "a. Require the shed to be policed each week, at the expense of the com pany. 4. Require four biological and two chemical analyses each year, at the ex- Dense of tbe company, and a copy 'of each to be led with Board of Health papers at this office. , "Xon will probably more fully appre Ciaite the first two recommendations when ' 1 assure you that the committee appointed by the Wake County Board of Hearth, to examine and report upon Chat shed before its adoption, composed of Doctors James McKee, R. H. Lewis, W. 1. Royster and Hubert Haywood, to their report under date of October 21, ltBM, recommended its aewacance upon condition "that the source of DoUution in the village of Oary and the dam at DOCTORS APPOINTED Dr Buffalo and i)r Mc Geachy will Vaccinate r , the Public In Obedience to th resolution passed by tbe aldermen last night, which to printed on th third page io this issue, Mayor Powell this morning appointed lr. Buffalo and Dt, MeGeachy to vac cinate th popte of Raialgh. They will begin Immediately gnfeag from house to house and vaccina ting an th inmates who wlU submit. , Dr. Buffalo baa all the territory west of FayettevMl and Halifax street tod Dr. McOeachy ha aU cast of the tarn streets. , , FAR 14, Aprt L"4iaronesB Utrsch died at t this morning. Yeatea' mdU be removed." 'The third recommendation is to pre- vent the deposit of germ-producing mat : ter, the placing or burial of dead ani mals on the shed, and to detect and re move infection or contagious diseases I developing thereon. "The fourth as wen as the third is but a repetition of my recommendations ot fast year. They received the approval of the medical profession of this city and such RacterioiogiBts as lr. Albert Anderson, of Wilson, and the cefctoeted Dr. Kin gan, of the Marine Hospital of Wash' tagton, V. C, but failed to receive any notice at the hand of the Board of Al dermen. "The Board of Aldermen of the dtj of Raleigh are commissioned to mane rules and regulations looking to the pre servation, of the water supply from im purities. The oxWt question is, will they i do it? in section 15, of chapter 89, of the i'rivate Laws of ltwo, we find the following provision 'That the agreement existing between said Raleigh Waiter Company and the city of Rateigh is hereby ratified and confirmed, and the Board of Aldermen of said dlty are hereby authorised and empowered at any time to enter Into contract with said Water Company for supplying said city with water for fire and other purposes, end are hereby au thorised and empowered to make ail proper and needful rule and regula tions for the protection and preserva tion from ansr and all impurities th sources, conduit and send pit of eaid water supply, A8SAS8IN'8 WOfiK Merchant Mistaken fop A President of France and Killed FAKia.
