as a scarcity of suitable ground and water
is reported. Gen. Buffers successor for

Although nothing definite can be learned in
regard to this report 1t is believed to be
adverse to the Virginia regiment. An in

shown that most of the enlisted men are
dissatisfied and desire to return to their
former occupations.

A ROYAL RECEPTION
Kaiser William Attends Review at
Mavence

MAYENCE, Hesse. Aug. 20.-Emperor
William, accompanied by the Grand Duke
of Hesse. arrived at 6:45 a. m. today to at
tend the review, 1t is his first visit to the
city since his accession. Mayence is en-
fete and brilliantly decorated. On leaving
the train the Emperor proceeded on horse
back to a triumphal arch at the castle
gate, where the Chief Burgomaster de-
livered an address of welcome to his Ma
jesty.
Emperor William. replying to the address.
said:
II thank you, worshipful Burgomaster.
for your cordial words. am not stranger
to your city When here as a boy I con-
ceived ideas similar to those you have just
expressed. The holy Roman empire of the
German peoples fell because it was not
built on a national foundation. It's deca-
dence was due to lack of patriotism and
cohesion. The German empire today arose
out of strongly felt need of union and of
a common head, and it reared itself UP on
the basis of love of fatherland.
IT am firmly determined to preserve with
all my strength the work of my grand
ia Their and that peace which is so dear to US.
This I shall only be able to do If we succeed
in maintaining our prestige with our neigh.
bors. To this end the harmony and CO.
operation Of all the German race and all
German individuals is necessary.
IT rejoice to see how beautiful Mayence
has developed. You may be assured shall
always feel a warm interest in your tu-
ture and shall do in your behalf all that
lies in my power, so that you may be able
uninterruptedly to live In civil accord. con-
duct your trade and to cultivate your vine
yards.
II shall always be mindful of the fact
that II was from the house of my dear cou-
sin, where 1 am now a guest, that my
grandfather started on his westward march
during which, with firm hammerstroke.
he welded the German empire. thank you
for your friendly reception and for these
beautiful decorations. 1 beg also to thank
you, my fellow-citizens."
Emperor William then shook hands with
the Burgomaster amid the cheers of the
multitude and rode off to the reviewing
ground. Considerable excitement was
caused here last evening by the arrest of
five Frenchmen who were making anti
German demonstrations.

DR.. william p. Wilson, director of the
Philadelphia Commercial museum drew
an interesting sketch of the Topographic,
geodetic and climatic features of the Phil
ppines and made an argument for the re-
tention of the islands. based on their neces-
sity to this country as a foothold. for the
extension of American commerce to the
countries of the Orient.
Chancellor McCracken of the university
of New York, as chairman of the commit
tee of twenty-one on resolutions, present.
ed report which he said had been unani-
mously agreed upon by the committee. The
resolutions were unanimously adopted by
the conference as follows:
We, the participants in the national con-
ference on the foreign policy Of the United
States, held at Saratoga on August 10 and
20, 1893. are unanimously agreed as follows:
With our success, with our view of natur-
al right and Of the inestimable privileges
of civil liberty, we should not be justified
in returning the conquered islands to the
misrule and oppression from which we
have relieved them. AS soon as the
islands under our political protection can
be trusted to govern themselves, they
should be allowed to do so, the United
States retaining under its authority only
necessary naval stations. Until such time
as they may be able to govern themselves,
they should continue under the protection
Of tn United States, and the question as to
whether, at some future period and at the
mutual desire of both they should be per-
manently annexed, should be left to the
time when 1t arises.
The United States, in behalf Of each
territory in question, and so long as It
should continue under its protection, should
adopt proper measures for securing out
of the revenues Of these countries the es-
adjustment of free. elementary unsectaran
schools, sufficient for the instruction of all
persons of school age.
We heartily approve Of the principle of
arbitration in the settlement of information
al difficulties and urge that its largest
practicable application be supplied by
treaties Of arbitration.
