 The bill also provides that two-thirds of the present incumbents of consular offices shall within three years be ex- amined as to their fitness by board, consisting of the Civil Service commits sion and two members of the State de- partment, and that those who fail to show the necessary qualifications shall be dropped. Appointments to the ser vice shall be limited to persons between the ages of 21 and 50 years. Persons now in office who fail to pass the ex- animation for positions of their pres ent grade may be readmitted to any lower grade for which they can qualify, and all applicants who successfully pass the examinations shall be eligible for appointment to the lowest grade of the service, according to the order of their standing. Promotions are to be made from lower to higher grades on the merit principle, and in this pro- cedure no grade shall be overstepped, the candidate being advanced from one class to another in regular succession.

Poke and empire bonnets still strug- gle, but are hardly likely to be &C., cepted this season. Women don't mind going to the most elaborate pictur- esque effect in a Gainsboro hat, but somehow the poke and the ribbon tied under the chin is deemed theatrlc. It's a pity, for the poke with a single up- standing feather and with big strings under the chin is charmingly pretty. It is more suited to hot summer wear

Washington, Nov. ls.-News OF
mixed character came to the navy de-
partment Friday from Admiral Dewey
touching on the situation in the Phil
| ippines. The admiral sent two of his
warships, the Charleston and Concord.
some time ago, TO the southwark from
Manila 10 ascertain whether there was
any truth in the reports that the in
surgents had extended activities in
that direction. Friday he cabled as
follows:
Manila, Nov. Richardson and
Concord arrived today from lliolo,
Glass reports entire island OF Panay 10
possession OF the insurgents except
Iuolo, which is defended by 500
Spanish troops. All foreign citizens
tnere are begging for American protee-
ton. dewey.
Glass is commander on the Charles
ton. So far nothing has been done by
the administration towards curling
the insurgents in their operations,
save representions from American
commanders to Aguinaldo. But the
situation Is now realized to be critical
As far as the Spaniards are concerned,
perhaps they can be left to take care
OF themselves, but the foreign resi-
dents at Iliolo are differently regarded
The difficulty in the situation is that
with the best intentions TO intervene
to protect the Europeans and other
foreigners and to save the
city of Iliolo from falling
the United States forces will appear
to be overstepping the protocol relat-
ing to a suspension of hostilities. The
immediate effect of this state of al
fairs may be to hasten the action in
the Paris conference. 1t is said to be
a fact, however, that total disagree
ment at Paris may result in speedier
action than if the commissioners
agreed upon the main principles OF
Philippine cession; for, in such a case,
several additional sessions probably
would be required in order to arrange
the details of the treaty. Il is now
thought certain that the commission at
its meeting Monday or Tuesday will
ether agree to a cession of the Phil
ippines or not and dissolve. The ad-
mnistration is not disposed 10 tolerate
further delay and it SO
instructed the United States
commissioners. The latter sent
large cablegram Friday in cipher.
1t was an extremely verbose statement
of the Spanish side of the case, relat-
ing to the Philippines. There was
renewal. of attempts to take issue with
the American contention as to the
meaning of the protocol clause relative
to the disposition OF the Philippines
and much quibbling. accompanied by
quotations from French, Spanish and
other European languages, In
an effort TO demonstrate to
the Americans just what the Eng
lish word might mean. The latter
will take no notice of this kind OF
hair-splltting plea, but will call on the
Spanish commissioners to make an
swer to the American proposition as to
the Philippines, probably allowing
until Tuesday only for final answer.
