to stay settled.
The subject Of through transportation
by rail and water lines is also important
aud should be settled. Naval vessels to

wrecking and salvidge rights are to besr.
ranged. Tariff reci procity is subject to
be settled, and ought to be.
As to the question Of the alien labor
laws raised by article VI the Canadian
papers report a statement made in
Montreal few days ago by Terence V.
Powderly, United States commissioner
of immigration, in which he says there
was no intention, when the alien labor
Law was passed, of excluding Canadians
ffom the states, so long as they came
over individually and not collectively,
even il the Canadians had secured posi-
tions before crossing the border.
Mr.. Powderly said, however, that
"the provisions Of the alien labor law
we're very strict, and, unfortunately
several American judges had been in
clined to base their judgments on the
strict letter of the law without taking
into consideration the intentions of
its trainers. That was why so many
Misunderstanding had arisen between
the United States and Canada over the
subject. Since he had been appointed
United States commissioner, however,
there had been no deportations, and d ar
ing the past year Canadians had been
permitted to enter the United States
under contract. Moreover, the per
capita tax of 81 which all foreigners had
to pay into the United States treasury
before entering the states was not de.
manded from Canadians"

OVER MILLION PENSIONERS
How the Heroes of Santiago and Font
lies of Those Who Fell WIN
BE PensIOned.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-In the forth
coming annual report of the commits
sioner of pensions, Mr.. H. Clay Evans,
it will be shown that on June 30, 1897,
there were on the rolls of the pension
bureau 97G,0l4 pensioners. To this
must be added 6S52 original claims
granted but not recorded and 762 re-
storations which were not entered at
the time on the books. Commissioner
Evans granted G3,64S original claims
during the past year and restored 4,OS9
pensioners to the benefits of pensions.
The pensioners now aggregate l,040,.
1856.
More pensions were granted last year
than any time from 1869 to 1880.
There is absolutely no means Of even
approxinatlng what the claims will be
under the recent war. The pension Of
flee has done nothing with the claims
that have been filed up to this time.
They do not aggregate 100, and for the
most part are claims of widows and
next of kin Tor the soldier boys who fell
before Santiago.
The majority of claims will likely be
for wounds and sickness
The additional legislation, it is said,
will be required TO deal with the cases
arising from this war.

MANILA QUIET.
Trouble With tho Rebels

WOULDN'T OBJECT TO ANNEXATION

Friction VIII Soon Disappear-Phili-
pinos In Europe Declared to Be Well

Rebellion Untn Now-Favor the Hold
ing of the Archipelago by the United
States-Business Booming Mt Manila.
MANILA, Philippine Islands, Aug. "a.
The rumors of troubles between the
natives and the Americans are for the
most part unfounded. The fact is that
the insurgents have been unwilling to
disarm until assured of the pernanence
of American protection.
The distrust felt as to the Spanish
bank, which originated in rumors as to
an excessive note issue to aid the Span
ish authorities, led to a run on the i'm
stituhon, but the British banking
houses came to its assistance and
averted failure.
Business is now booming. The oh.
structions in the river Pasig, which
flows through the town, have been re-
moved, and the water works have re.
sumed operations.
LONDON, Aug. 24.-The Associated
Press learned yesterday that the Philip.
pine junta in London received dis.
patch from Manila Sunday announcing
that matters there are rapidly quicting
down, and that the friction between
Aguinaldo and the Americans is disap.
pearing.
According to the junta's advices, the
insurgents Tor time regarded General
Merritt and General Anderson as marti-
nets, and te red they would adopt harsh
methods, like the Spauiards, toward
the Filipinos, but the insurgents from
the first have had the greatest conf
dence in Admiral Dewey, whom they
regard as a sort of father and the most
important American at Manila.
The junta is satisfied that all friction
will soon disappear and that there will
be no trouble from the insurgents if
the Americans decided to retain the
Philippines.
According to worthy PHILIPPINE,
now in London, the Philippines in
Europe are all wen do people. Hith.
erto they have .eld aloof from the in
surgents, but they now realize that
their interests demand action and they
are about to form committee to open
negotiations with the junta here. They
are all In favor of having the archipela.
go retained by the United States. So
strong is their conviction of the desira-
bility of this course that they had con-
templated approaching the British for.
eign Office TO invite Great Britain to in
tervene, and in any event to prevent
the islands being returned to the con-
troll OF Spain. They decided, however,
to wait American action.

No foolish nonsense shall contract our powers
For we shall claim the Philippinesare ours;
Thanks to our Dewey, we got there in May,
And having got Manila, we can stay
We will not say the continent is ours,
Or that we'll take the world from the Powers
But then we have an interest here below,
And would suggest that Powers humanely 60
Just take lesson from this bout with Spain,
Nor treat us meanly with high disdain;
To blind horse a wink OF nod may do,
But those with vision can take better view.
