Up to within a few days ago, how
ever their prayer has fallen on deaf
ears. and they have been obliged to
shell out their nickels along with the
common herd except when actually
answering or returning from an alarm.
An order has been posted at the car
barn on Market street which allows the
fremen the boon they have long
craved. 1t reads as follows: "On and
after this date, fremen in full uniform
will be allowed to ride free on the cars
of the company" The clause lin full

vas stated by officials of the road last
night that this did not mean that fire
men with their badges on would be ae-
corded the dead-head privilege. This
bars out the call men entirely, for they
do not have uniforms, and extends the
privilege only to the members of the

AEOHciI!o's Views of What Our Phil

'pPihS cbSulu Me-
Paris, Oct. 1S.-Philippo Agoncillo, the
representative of Aguinaldo, the insur-
gent leader of the Philippine islands,
has been interviewed. Agoncillo arriv-
ed here late Sunday afternoon from
the United States, and has engaged
apartments at the Hotel Continental,
on the same floor as the rooms occu-
pied by the United States peace COM
missioners. He is DESTROYS of seeing
them and placing Aguinado's views of
the future of the Philippines before our
commissioners.
Would the Filipinos accept annexa-
ton or protectorate of the United
States?" Agoncillo was asked. He an
swered:
I'VE want independence, but the Fill
pinos have n recognized government. of
which AguinaldO is president, and it
will determine our attitude toward a
protectorate or annexation"
Should the United States take all or
part of the Philippines, would the Fill

ject to the continuance of the native
priests?"
Yes
And what of the religious orders?
Would the Filipinos accept any peace
with the United States and Spain which
did not provide for the expulsion of the
orders?"
The presence and acts of the orders
were the chief determining cause of the
instruction. 1t would be impossible
for the Filipinos to become reconciIed
with Spain. We have vainly and re-
peated!y sought the rights of citizen
ship, employing all legal means, and
have risen in insurrection ~ times in
a century to secure them, and we are
now enjoying them. Peace is only pos
sible under any government by the
of the orders which, as I
have said, were the chief determining
cause of the abuses and oppression. and
hence the rebellions.''
