Official Secrets,

Dispatches from Washington say
that the officials there are annoyed
because the newspapers have been
divulging secrets about the Peace
Commission plans asserting that the
revelations made may work harm TO
the interests of this Government Iu
blaming the press the officials are not
willing - confess that the leakage Of
secrets may be justly attributed either
To the carelessness or wilfulness of
those wnose duty it is to keep them.
When Il newspaper man gives to
the public official news that it is
sought to conceal, in nine times out
of ten the information is obtained
from those who either make loud
professions of shrewdness in dealing
with newspaper men, or those who,
to gain for their own elf-glorification
the support of these men, forget Their
most sacred obligations. 1t is almost
impossible in this age to keep secret
from the public official facts in which
he public take an interest.
The United States Senate time an'
again has considered its secrets i'm
penetrable, and as often has seel
them revealed but its members haV
always blamed innocent men, ignol
ing, and often designedly, the fac
that the culprits may be among it
own members.
Washington officials are but repeat
ing the history of other days.

it was behind the one which fell

THE anthracite coal trade presents
little change or interesting feature.
Conditions continue as heretofore
but the cooler weather and the prog
ress of the autumn, necessitating
purchases of winter supplies, have
rather increased the ordering of Goa

working at the mines, experienced
operators believe the output for
September will be about the same as

MISTAKES OF AMERICANS.


Consul Williams should Have Been n
Peace Commissioner.
London, Sept 2O.-Tho Hong Kong
correspondent Of The Daily Mail says:
The Filipino congress has favorably
impressed the European powers who
have witnessed its proceedings. 1t is
believed that its deliberations will re-
suit in a petition to President Mckinley
to establish protectorate.
The attitude of the American army
officers towards the insurgents is caus-
ing much unfavorahle criticism among
Europeans who have returned from
Manila. They blame their almost Grim
inal ignorance Of the native character
and their elementary ideas of coloniz-
Ing. The officers seem determined upon
winning glory at the expense Of the
insurgents by Matching imaginary re-
volts. AEuinaldo has obeyed every
order whether accompanied by threats
or not. one insurgent chief at Pasay
declined to move and Agunaldo asked
General Otis not TO proceed against him
for four days, so as TO give him an op-
portunity to interview him.
A British naval officer who has Just
returned from Manila says;
what is needed is a force acquaint-
ed with the Asiatic character America
does not seem TO utilize the material
she has on hand Every one IS sur
priscd that o. f. Williams, United
States consul at Manila, was not sent
to Paris instead of n lot of staff officers
who knew little of the Philippines. [
am satisfied that If Consul General
Wildman. who has lived among the
Malays and Is familiar with British
colonial methods We're given power he
could arrange everything satisfactorily
with Aguna'do. It is suicidal folly ON
the part of America that he has not
been ordered to Manila long ago"
