Four Americans Killed and Sixteen Wounded Left on the Field. Maila, May, 3.—A dispatch received here to-day from Iloilo reports that} a desperate fight at Leambano in the center of the island of Panay. It appears that a reconnoitering party of the Twenty-sixth infantry was sur- j rounded and that four of the Ameri-| jcans were killed and others severely wounded, were left on the field. The remainder of the soldiers had a narrow escape. The dispatch adds that lloilo as soon | | i] i sixteen reinforce- ments were sent from as news of the affair whereupon the Filipinos retreated to their mountain stronghold. Panay is one of the largest: islands south of Luzon. Recent mail advices to the War de- partmerit from the Philippines indi- cate that the latest plan of theinsur- gents isto organize mounted bands of 100 and harrass the Ameri- can forces wherever possible. These bands will be scattered throughout the islands and will be in dail munication with each other as far as possible by means of scouts, who will was received, into com- earry the orders to govern concerted movements and all information con- cerning retreats, reinforcements, ete. According to the Liberal, the organ of the Filipinos, a complete plan of military strategy will be drawn up “asa result of which the Americans will soon suffer.”” It is reported that a strong insur- gent camp is being organized in the Zambeles mountains and that nearly all the towns of the provinces, whether occupied by Americans or not, continue to pay taxes for the sustenance of the Filipinos in arms and the prosecution of the struggle. FOR THE CHICAGO PLATFORM. oo | New Hampshire Declares for It and NICARAGUA CANAL BILL PASSES THE HOUSE. Eloquent Pleas in Favor of a Fortified Waterway Fail of Effect. ITS) PROTECTION AUTHORIZED. Dramatic Scene Between Cannon of Illinois and Hepburao of lowa--- Latter Used the Word “Liar.” Washington, May 2.—The house to-day, at the conclusion of the most stormy debate of the present session of congress, passed the Nicaragua canal bill by the overwhelming vote of 225 to 35. Allattempts to retain in the bill the language of the original bill for the fortifying of the canal and to strengthen the language on that line were balked, and the victory of Mr. Hepburn and the committee was complete. A motion to recommit the bill with iastructions to report back another bill leaving the selection of the route to the president was buried under an adverse majority of 52 to 171. Mr. Cannon, chairman of the ap- propriations committee, and Mr. Burton, chairman of the rivers and harbors committee, made a game fight to stall off action at this session but their appeals were in vain and the members rode rough shod over all their arguments and protests. Much excitement reigned throughb- out the day, and several times bitter words were used. The excitemeat reached its climax in a highly dra- Matic scene between Mr. Hepburn and Mr. Cannon, when the for-ner used the word “‘lie,” and “liar” as he denounced the distinguisaed chair- man of the appropriations commit- tee for attempting “to hishonor” him. The house was in riotous confusion during the quarrel. Members.crowd- edthe aisles and the situation at one time was so threatening that Mr. Wheeler (dem.) of Kentucky sought to pouroil on the waiers by raising | a point of order. But he was not upheld and the two irate members carried the war to the very hik. There was a show of peace at the incident, but the feeling between the two men ran so high thatthe mutual retractions with which such incidents. generally end were but the cloaks for the keenest and most cutting sar- casm. TO CONSTRUCT AND PROTECT. The bill as it passed the house au- neeessary territory on which to “ex- cavate, construct and protect” a ship canal, and provides that “the secretary of war shall construct such safe and commodious harbors at the terminus of said canal and such pro- visions for defense as may be neces sary for the safety and protection of said canal and harbor.’ Ten million dollars is appropriated, and the total cost is not to exceed $140,000,- 000. Mr. McCullough of Arkansas, offer- ed an amendment to insert the words “fortify, garrison,” between the words “construct”’ and ‘‘defend."” He said he desired that the language of the bill should be unequivecal and should make plain the purpose of congress to abrogate the Clayton- Bulwer treaty. Mr. Shafroth of Colorado heartily supported the amendment. We should make a fortified canal or no eanal, he said. Mr. Williams of Mississippi said that he should like to see the word ‘fortify’ in the bill, but the main thing was to construct the eanal and wipe out 10,000 miles of ocean voy- age and freight charges in propor- tion.

Concord, N. H., May 2.—The state convention of the democratic party to choose delegates to the national convention at Kansas City was held to-day. The ‘resolutions “unqualified and unreservedly’’ indorsed the Chicago platform of 1896 “in whole and in detail.” They denounced the repub lican party for “its abandonment of bimetallism, its enactment of a gold standard law at the command of the money kings, and its absolute sur- render to the national banks of the control of the currency,” and said: “We denounce the republican party for inflicting upon the nation, under false pretenses, a policy of colonial conquest, wich its attendaut evils of imperialism aad militar’ rifice of the basic principles of the Declaration of Independence and in defiance of the federal constitution. We believe in free trade and every other constitutional guaranty for Porto Rico, and independence for Cuba and the Philippine islands as soon as they are capable of self-gov- ernment. We favor the adoption of a consti- tutional amendment providing for the election of United States senatora by the direct vote of the people.” The following delegates to the na tional convention wereselected: True L.
