In compliance with the resolution of the 7th instant relative to Jorge Cruz, a na- tive of Porto Rico, brought to the United States under a labor contract, the Secre- tary of the Treasury today sent to the Senate the papers bearing upon the case. MAY BE BROUGHT HERE. Suspects Arrested in Philadelphia as Alleged Bicycle Thieves. Detective Muller, who went to Philadel- phia Tuesday and caused the arrest of Harry E. Morton and John Warpole on charges of having stolen bicycles in this city last Saturday, has returned home. The defendants were given a hearing yester- day before United States Commissioner Craig, who held them for trial in this city. They will be brought here by the marshal unless they succeed in giving bond. Mor- ton’s name is also given as Wagner by the detective, and Warpole, it fs alleged, is the man who was arrested in Baltimore under the name of Noah T. Quigley, and who escaped by jumping a distance of about twenty feet from a window. He has a sprained ankle and is using a crutch, but he denies that he is the man who was ar- rested in Baltimore. Detectives Hagan and Brennan of Balti- more have fully identified him as the man who escaped from headquarters in Balti- more Saturday soon after his arrest. Tne young men under arrest are brothers-in-law and are in the bicycle business at 144 North 18th street, Philadelphia. Warpole would say nothing to the officers except to deny that he is the man who was arrested in Baltimore. Morton said the bicycles recovered at his place were shipped to him by a cousin, whose address, he says, he does not know. His cousin told him he could buy second- hand wheels cheap and ship them to him, and he bargained to sell them. Three chain- less wheels, alleged to have been stolen Saturday, have been recovered. It is believed the young men will be brought here tomorrow. Detectives Horne and Weedon have recovered two stolen bi- cycles since Batyrday, and Detective Mc- Namee has also recovered one. —— FIGHTING ALMOST OVER. @pinion of a Soldier on Duty in the Philippines. Benj. M. S. Mocers, a member of the 36th’ Regiment of United States Volunteers, on duty in the Philippines, has written to his parents in this city as follows: “We had a scrap last Tuesday and cap- tured two field pieces, besides smal! arms, and killed and wounded about thirty. That is the number we saw, but they get their dead away so quick In most cases that we don't find half of them. There were only fifty of us. “Saturday night about o'clock they opened up on us while we were asleep in quarters. ‘Talk about hustling. We put on our clothing and belts and were in skir- mish line in less than five minutes. There are only two companies here, F and I. The last named company flanked the enemy and we charged, and you ought to have heard us. If we didn’t give some wild and woolly yells: you could have heard us three miles away. Company E came from another town and caught the ‘goo-goos’ going out, drove them back and we got sixty-two of them. “We are enjoying ourselves here. The only thing I don’t like is that we are so far from the railroad. The insurgents are com- ing in now. Night before last sixty came in and turned over their guns and we ex- pect more in a day or two, so I think our fighting is almost over. “We have had but three or four of our men shot while on outpost. They came over with me, but they are in other companies. We have only lost two men out of our company. “Aguinaldo’s wife died in Manila a while ago. We received her and a little boy as prisoners when the 36th Regiment and the 4th Cavalry took Tarlac. The 17th Regi- ment hes relieved Companies E and B at Sen Carlos and Clashzow, and BH and B have gone to Dagupan. I suppose they will soon relieve us.” —_<__. Casualties in the Philippines.

Stainer’s “Crucifixion” was sung last evening at St. John’s P. E. Church, 16th and H streets, by the choir of the church, assisted by Mrs. Margaret N. Martin and Mrs. Mary A. Freeman, altos, and Mr. W. D. McFarland, tenor. The organ, which was played by the organist and choirmas- ter, Mr. H. H. Freeman, under whose direc- tion the work was sung, was supplemented by two violins, a viola and viotoncello, played by Herman C. Rakemann, William B. Green, Josef Finckel and Ernest Lent, respectively. After the processional and the singing of the Lord's Prayer and Apos- tle’s Creed a brief address was made by Rev. Dr. Mackay-Smith, the rector of the church. The large audience heard with ap- preciation the beautiful music of thi¢ famous composition, which was sung with fidelity and at the same time with evident understanding of the great theme. The voices of the boys who largely composed the choir were heard with good effect in the concerted porttons, while the solo paris were sung with expression and power by Melville D. Hensey, tenor, and Charles F, Roberts, bass. It was evident that careful attention had been given to the prepara- tion for this occasion. At the same time there was not lacking a comprehension of the dramatic force of the composition, Upon Mr. Freeman fell the double duty of organist and conductor, and the smooth- ness of the presentation, as well as the ar- tistic quality, was a tribute to bis ability. as a musician. As the rector indicated in his remar! An that of the stringed instruments, gave that finish and completeness to the formance which helped to make it so from most every point of view. It must
