THE PHILIPPINES.
Count Cassini Tells How Russia Would
Regard Our Control of Them

Regard Our Control of Them
Count Cassini was asked whether
Russia looked with apprehension upon
the American occupation of the Philip
pine islands. He replied that Russia
was naturally deeply concerned in amy
movement affecting the great problem
of the far east The Philippines were tn
some extent part or an outpost of tho
far east, and who was to control them
if they passed out of the control cf.
Spain was of interest and importance to
Russia. But so far as Russia herself IS
concerned Count Cassini said that her
sphere of activity was confined &c tho
far east proper and not to the Philip
pines and other outlying islands, which
could have only an indirect and reuiose
influence in the development of the east.
In response TO an inquiry as &c
whether Russia would likely, alone or
with other powers, look with disfavw
upon the control of the Philippines By
the United States the ambassador SAID,
that he did not apprehend any change
in the present good relations between
Russia and the United States He added,
however, that it seemed TO be quite rn
desirable that the possession of the
Philippines should pass into the hands,
of England, as that would seriously dis.
turb the equilibrium in the far east. -.

MEXICANS WATCH THE WAR.
How the Descendants of Spain Take the
Present Conflict.


Present Conflict.
Speaking of the Spanish sentiment in
Mexico, Mr. j. T. Flynn, mining EN-
gineer from the City of Mexico, says
"The native Mexicans are sympathetic
with the United States There is great
feeling exhibited in the war by all the
nati0nalities. The government has given
strict orders to maintain "a neutrality,
and it is done. The wealth is mostly
controlled by the Spanish. They have
sent much food, ostensibly TO the recon-
centrados, but in reality it goes to the
Spanish army in Cuba. Just the other
day they loaded Norwegian vessel
with cargo for Cuba. These vessels
land their stuff at some port which is
not under strict blockade. They man
age to slip in vast amount OF provi-
sions and money.
lin the City of Mexico we have an
American club and q Spanish club.
Both organizations watch the progress
of the war closely We get our dis
patches from the Associated Press, while
the Spaniards get their news from Mad
rid. They believe everything they get
over their wire, and it keeps them busy
hearing corrections and retractions. -

PHILIPPINE NATIVES.
AN ENGLISH TRAVELLERS PERSONAL
INVESTIGATIONS ABOUT THEM.

They Are Said to lie an Incomprehensible
and Unreliable Race-wni Serve You
Faithfully For Years and Then Commit
Some Horrible Crime.
Jud ring from the accounts of an Eng
lish Il lveler who has made careful
study Of Philippine affairs, the natives
of the islands-that is, the domesticated
natives-are difficult people to deal
with. Before beginning his studies OF
the native character he questioned
parish priest who had been living among
the natives for more than 40 years. The
priest declared the islanders were an
absolutely incomprehensible race, to
whom no known rules Of civilization or
savagery had the smallest application.
Here is the result of the Englishman's
personal Investigations:
"They are absolutely unreliable.
They will serve you faithfully for 20
years and then commit some such horri-
BILE crime as delivering over your house
and family to brigands. They are pa
tient sober and even honest servants
usually, but at any moment they may
break out and, joining band OF rob-
bers, pillage your house. II you tax
them with the crime, they are not
abashed, but disclaim all responsibility,
answering, Senior, my head was hot, ;
which they consider sufficient excuse.
"They will never confess to mis-
deed voluntarily. They will submit to
a beating without q murmur II they
think it is deserved and bear no malice,
but if they consider the punishment un-
Just they will seek the first opportunity
of revenging themselves. They never
forgive and never forget an injury, but
they cherish no memory OF kindness.
Generosity they regards as weakness.
If you give them anything unsought,
they consider you fool and treat you
accordingly. They are always asking
favors, though never directly. Borrow
ing they think no shame, but they new
or repudiate their debts On the other
hand, they never pay back voluntarily,
and if taxed with their dishonesty look
surprised and say, Senior. you never
asked for 1t.
"If Won pay man 20 cents for serv-
ice. he will be contented; If you pay
him 30 cents. he will grumble. They
have no words for thank you in their
language nor concept OF what the
phrase implies They have no notion OF
charity, never helping one another ex-
cept in the case of relatives. but they
acknowledge even the remotest ties OF
relationship Ii treated badly, they make
good servants and never grumble; II
treated kindly, they are lost and go to
the bad. They never stick to an occupa-
ton. but are ready to turn their hands
to anything They are jacks OF all
trades and good at none. They are brave
against equals if led by superiors, but q
real or fancied superiority in the foe
causes them to abandon all hope.
"They do not know the meaning OF
hospitality. They will do what You tell
them IL you tell them often enough, but
they will never do anything OF their
own accord. They will answer ques-
lions, but never volunteer information.
They will let your horse die for want

case as it recalled the fact that the much
abused Miner, the man with the dous-

quarter OF century ago. pointed out the

where there was big deposit OF copper
upon which at the time Tommy Will
