The league was said to have promised to finance the association iu at least three cities of 4t cireuit. Lack of funds was the cause conceded for the assoclation’s death. W.

President Young today announced that the league had granted all the players' de- mands. The players have agreed to sign league contracts under pain of suspension. The suspension, however, is only operative untll the players' organization can meet as & body and act on the matter As a matter of fact, the agreement signed by President Zimmer amounts to nothing more ythan an expression of oodwill toward the National league as against Ban John son's organization, Whether the players ratity Zimmer's ag ment or not, the con cessions made by the league will hold goo0d The most important concession, perhaps 18 the new option clause.

I Feb. 27.—The concluding scene of the com- mission’s visit to the province of Bulacan Wwas most dramatic General Grant pre- sented Seraplo with a flag which once be- longed to General Grant's father. The Fil- Ipinos received the flag enthusiastically, swore loyalty to the United States, and cheered General Grant and the commis- sioners. Jose Seraplo, an uncle of Aguinaldo and formerly an InsurgeAl colonel, has been ap- pointed governor of Bulacan province. There were several candjdates, including two army officers, but the United States commission was unanimously in favor of Serapio, who surrendered during General Lawton's progress northward, and who has since been such a consistent friend of the United States that Aguinaldo published an order degrading his uncle, There was considerable protest against Serapio's apointment, chiefly from a dele- gation which represented the interests of the friars.

During the course of his speech an- nouncing the appointment Judge Taft sald nowhere had a military commander shown such bhenevolent consideration for the in- terests of the people as had General Grant The appointment of a native governor in- dicated the commission’s confidence in the Tagalogs. AMERICAN SENTIMENT GROWS Two Hundred pinos Voluntarily Take Oath of Allegiance. i MANILA, Feb, Pro-American senti- ment is spreading in insurgent strongholds. Two hundred and sixty-five persons volun- tarily took the oath of allegiance at Camil, island of Albay, at one time reported as, next to Luzon, the worst insurgen: center, and that elghty-four took the oath at Calamba. Captain Chase, with a detachment of the Twenty-first regiment, in a three days' scouting _expedition, dispersed 200 insur- gents and destroyed thelr maln camp, that of Pedro Cabellos. Lieutenant James, with a detachment of the Eighth infantry, raided a ladrone ren- dezvous at Macquiling, Island of Polo, kill- ing two men, securing 175 prisoners and de- stroying twenty tons of rice and other in- surgent supplies. The armored cruiser Brooklyn turned here from Hong Kong. Additional evidence against Carman and Carranza, the merchants accused of dealing with the Insurgents, has developed. The investigation into the charegs is again be- ing vigorously pushed has re- ALUM BAKING POWDER. De red by the Cour wholesome, and Its tion of the Pure Food A case in the courts of Davenport, Ia., the other day appears to have fixed the status of the alum baking powders as an filicit article of trade In that state. It seems that the Pure Food company of Chicago sold to a firm of grocers in Daven- port a quantity of baking powder called “Pure Food Baking Powder.” The grocers sold some of It, ascertained that it was an alum powder, returned the powder un- sold to the manufacturers and refused to pay for it. The manufacturers sued to col- lect. The case was tried before Judge Bollinger and a jury. Attorneys Neal & Neal and S. A. Finger defended the grocers. It was shown that the powder contained alum. The defense claimed, consequently, that it was injurious to health and that trafc in it was against public pollcy. Expert testi- mony was introduced to sbow that alum when taken into the stomach would influ- ence the gastric juices to the detrimeni of the person using it. The jury rendered a verdict for the de- fendants, which means that alum baking powders are deleterious to health, their sale illegal in the state. The pure food laws of the state are upheld e Un- Viol Advances Price of Steel.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Feb, 27.—A spe cial to the News from Diamondville, Wyo says: Outside of the relief shifts which have been working herolcally and incessantly since Monday night, the little mining camp of Diamondville has been at a standstill, miners, merchants and housewives having practically suspended their dafly avoca tions in the face of the terrible calamity which has visited the camp. Groups of anxious men, women and children still sur- round the main entrance to the mine. The number of lives lost is at least twenty- six and possibly twenty-nine, but no more. At the present time Superintendent Sned- Gon is directing the operations of the carching parties in the mine. The work is necessarily slow, but reports reach the mouth of the mine to the effect that the fire is practically subdued. It is possible that all the dead may be brought out by tomorrow. Early this morning the eearching party succeeded in bringing out eight bodies, which were carried to the blacksmith shop adjoining, which has been turned into a temporary morgue.
