As a sort of corollary to General Merritt's testimony as to the conditions existing in the American army in and around Manila, the subjoined comment of the New York on another phase of public opinion of individuals and affairs in the Philippines is both interesting and wholesome. It is good medicine for Mr. Boar and the people who constitute the disciples of the very absurd Senator and who accept his opinions and judgments: It is an interesting act that there are Americans of high position who find it easier to believe the wildest vaporings ot Aguinaldo than the statements of General Otis. Perhaps nobody can explain that state of mind. Whatever the reason may be, there are Americans whose mental faculties are bo distorted that they listen with profound belief to everything Aguinaldo has to say, and instinctively put down everything that is said by the general commanding the American forces as an untruth.

Perhaps the United States will get along best if it expects its own officers in command at distant paints to report the facts. There is nothing entiiely abhorrent in the suggestion. It is not known that General Otis has ever been guilty of a falsehood. FATHER AND SON Both Murderers Hanged on the Same Gallows. Kansas City, March SO.

The victorious march of McArthur's division has now carried it well along toward Malolos, the capital of the insurgent Filipinos. It would appear from the way in which the interval from Manila northward had been intrenched, that Aguinaldo counted on a more prolonged resistance to our progress than be was able to make; but under the impetuous onset of our troops from Caloocan northward, Maliota, Polo, Malanday, Meycauayan, and Ma-rilao, along the shore road near which the railroad runs, fell into our bands. Bulacau River, stilt further on, was occupied by our gunboats. The ground nowTraversed is new to our troops, no reconnoissanceB so far north, previous to the march, being possible; but the railroad suggests a region tolerably level. Obstacles have been encountered in the thickets, the marshes, the many streams and dikes, and there have been burned bridges to rebuild; but some of the inlets admit our gunboats, and the route of the army has been so close to the shore that it has bad the navy to rely on for co-operation, while Malolos itself is only a few miles inland.

The fighting since early Saturday morning, when the advance in force began, has been largely bushwhacking, but there have been gallant charges in the open, like that of the South Dakota regiment. Perhaps the question of ammunition may soon be serious for the insurgents.

Saturday and Sunday for General Otis' dispatch says, 'Enemy" resistance not so vigorous." This is attributed to the fact that our forces are now in a more open country, where th. methods of guerrilla fighting are not so readily executed. The report that th. enemy has destroyed the railway and telegraph lines compels our engineers practically to build a railroad and telegraph line as our troops advance. A high official of the war department summed up the military situation as follows: "The troops ar.

In excellent spirits. Full supplies ar. on hand, and the supply trains are keeping abreast of the men. Th. enemy la losing h.art and falling back." Gsneral Corbin does not credit the report that Insurgents have abandoned their capital and have moved baok to San Fernando.

He bases this conclusion on the fact that General Otis has reported no such move, and he doubtless would be quick to report any move of such vital importance. His reports thuB far are considered very comprehensive and intelligent. General Otis has cabled th. following additional casualties to Adjutant General Corbin: "March 28, Killed: Third artillery-Battery Private J. J.

Whitney, Private Charles Johnson. "Wounded Tenth Pennsylvania Company Private Chrlstoptier Fibert, hand, severe, accidental. Third artilleryBattery Firs Sergeant John C. O'Connor, eye, slight. "Injured: Twentieth Kansas Company Private Louis J.

Ross, foot, slight." In reply to an Inquiry from Adjutant General Corbin asking wheth.r General Otis had sufficient supplies and if not to state what was wanted, the latter has sent a message stating that "supplies of all kinds sufficient for immediate wants." It is stated at the war department that the subject of mustering in 35,000 volunteers, as permitted by the army reorganization bill, has not been mentioned to the president either by Acting Secretary of War Meiklejohn or Adjutant General Corbin. There is no intention to bring forward this question at present, as, with the troops already ordered to Manila and which It will take some months to transport thither, General Otis has all th. forces necessary to accomplish what is desired of him In the Philippines. Says We Didn't Want Philippines. London, March 80.

The Birmingham Post publishes a report "emanating from a usually very well informed source" that the TJuited States, at the beginning of February, "proposed, through Sir Julian that Great Britain take over the Philippine Islands, upon certain conditions," but, it Is added, "this feeling has altered greatly since the heavy fighting," although, it said, beyond a doubt the United States would at one time "have been very glad to exchange or otherwise disburden themselves of the permanent charge of the islands."

Manila, March 30. At daylight General MacArthur's division advanced from Marilao along the railroad to Bigaa, five miles distant, In the following order: The Nebraska regiment, the South Dakota regiment and the Pennsylvania regiment on the right, the KanBas regiment, the Third artillery and the Montana regiment on the left. General Wheaton's brigade Is in reserve. The American forces met with strong opposition In the Jungle. First one Ne-braskan, then one Pennsylvanian and afterward two of the Montana regiment were killed, and 36 were wounded, including one officer of the Kansas regiment.

Thence the troops pushed on to Bigaa without opposition, the rebels burning the villages as they retreated In bad order toward Malolos. Tora VTp the Railroad. The enemy also tore up sections of the railroad In many places and attempted to burn the bridge at Bigaa, but the fire was extinguished. Owing to the timely arrival of the Americans the rebels had not finished their trenches along the line of the march, showing they were not prepared for our advance. It Is believed, however, that there will be a hard fight before Malolos is taken.

The Minnesota regiment re-enforced the division, marching from the waterworks during the night to Manila and going to the front by train. Prisoners captured declare that their officers stand behind the lines, armed with heavy whips, and lash unwilling natives into fighting. On both prisoners and the dead Filipinos are marks of these lashes. There are executions every day in the Filipino army of men who refuse or even show an unwillingness to fight, according to natives captured by our troops. The insurgent government has left Malolos and Is now at San Fernando.

The Filipinos fired volleys Tuesday evening for the purpose of drawing the American fire and disclosing the locality of our positions. Two men of the Pennsylvania regiment and one man of the Dakota regiment were wounded. The Americans remained silent. A Scene of Deaolntlon.

His course since he has been at Manila has ezactl corresponded with his statements. It appears that he has commanded the approval of the majority of foreign residents at that point. Even in some matters of difficulty he has been able to sweep away all objections by clear statements of facts which none venture to dispute.

Yet, in the estimation of some critics, he is less worthy of belief than Aguinaldo. It is really curious how the minds of some men predispose them to believe untruths, and so strongly that no accumulation of evidence, no appeal to common-sense, has any effect whatever. Yet some men are built on that plan. One may admit that they are to be pitied, but it cannot be denied that they have the comfort of being befooled, as they obviously like to be. WIRELETS.

Mr. Heath holds that the law does not apply to clerks at the third and fourth olass offices, as they are hired and paid independently by the postmasters, nor does It apply to letter carriers, because statute provision fixes the number of hours per day they shall work, which, being construed to mean so many hours, in fact, per year, cannot be reduced by any department regulation.

As to the Branch. North Branch in summer time, in that part flowing through the residence section of thiB city, has long been an offence and a menace to the health of this community. Many expedients have been devised for sweetening the stream by keeping out of its shallow waters the sewage from Bewers that discharge into it their unwholesome contents all along either bank. Summer is approaching and the nuisance will again offend the sight and nostrils of the people. The Boston Herald tells how a similar case of sanitary peril was averted in a Ma eachusetts town and Montpelier may go and do likewise: A good example of what can be accomplished by individual effort, intelligently directed, againBt bad sanitary methods in a country town, is furnished by the achievement of Charles E.

Grinnell, who has a summer residence in Middleboro, where the sewage of the town has long been permitted to defile the river, greatly to the peril and discomfort of the people living on its banks. Mr. Grinnell long Bince tried to persuade the town to dispose ot its sewage in a proper way, but he met wish only rebuffs and ridicule. Then he applied to the state authorities for relief. At first the town opposed him here also, but Mr.

Grinnell stood his ground, and now the town has seen fit voluntarily to secure the services of an engineer to furnish plans for sewage filtration. It is a handsome triumph for Mr. Grinnell, and it is likewise a credit to the awakened good sense of the town thus to be benefited.
