pines. Were they to retain the island of Luzon another power, possibly inimical now or hostile in the future might occupy Mindanao or any of the near by islands within cannon reach of Luzon. Again, jealousy caused by the advantages of American control would end the ceaseless pickering and possible complications be- tween the United States and other powers possessing other islands of the group. While commercial advantages may be held In part as reason for the United States taking the entire group it is small hazard to say that the chief concern of the American commissioners have been to adopt course which shall honorably meet the high demands imposed on the United States by the condition of the natives.
 Would Take Canaries
 It is appreciated by Spaniards and Americans alike that should no treaty re- suit here hostilities will be continued and both sides clearly understand that in such an event the American fleet would immediately possess the Philippines be- yond question and without money con- sideration to Spain. The Canaries would then be an object of interest to the United States and possibly other Spanish posses sipns.
 Close observers here express the belief that if in the event of renewed hostilities the United States approached the penin- sula no European power in the present in- ternational condition would involve itself on behalf of Spain.
 Should the American and Spanish com missions approach a deadlock on the sub jeet of the Philippines, Spain before retir- ing would doubtless propose arbitration. But, and again careful observers here ex- press the view that the submission of the case to any European power in the prescott delicate conditions would be tantamount to a submission of a dispute to arbitrators already involved in differences affecting possibly the case proposed to be submitted.

Turkey and the position of the Orthodox church in Palistine. Russian clerical au- thorities fear German Professionalism and the government fears the increasing infiu- ence of Germany in the Orient and will in no case permit Turkish sessions to Ger many. The bulk of the German newspa- pers express the opinion that Emperor Williams trip will yield little tangible good, but will create much jealousy upon the part of the interested powers who will endeayor to destroy any German pro- jects in Asia Minor.
 The German comic papers are also polk ing fun at the emperor and his new cru sade leading in some cases to prosecutions on the charge of lese majeste. The po- lice confscated the last number of Sim plisslssimus owing to it's publication of a poem entitled "In the Holy Land" ironi- cally congratulating Palestine on receiv- ing such august visitors and saying Col gotha would be able to boast not only of hearing the last words from the cross but the first of Emperor William.
 The German newspaper correspondents with Emperor William highly praised the lavish hospitality of the sultan of Turkey, which, however. has created intense dis satisfaction among the Turks Placards have been posted on the Mosques and in the streets of Stamboul denouncing the extraordinary sums spent on the emperor which money it is further pointed out comes out of Mohammedan pockets.
 It Is said the sultan offered to present Emperor William on the evening of the lat ter's arrival at Jerusalem with the famous "Chamber of the Last tSuppcr," but that the German emperor thanked the sultan and declined the proposal on that ground that the buld'nE also contained the Turk ish reiigious relics.

 Significantly touching this point is re- cent utterance by the Madrid Imparcial that the Spanish commission should not remain in Paris if the intentions of the protocol concerning the Philippines were not carried out with the utmost rigor. On the eve of the Philippines negotia- tions there is unofficial anticipation that no treaty will be signed which involves the loss of the Philippines to Spain without large financial consideration and 1t would not cause surprise should the Spaniards at some stage of the considerations withdraw as body or if some member would re- sign affecting the same result.
 The American commissioners today re- ceived from Washington full advices in re- sp0nse to the submisiosn of their individ- ual views regarding the Philippine sses- tion, and two sessions were held to consider these replies.

COL. GEORGE E. WAKING
Dies of Yellow Fever Contracted While
 in Havana.

New York, October 29.-Colonel George E. Waring, Jr, died of yellow fever today at his home in this city. where he had been since he arrived from Havana on the Yu- catan on Thursday last. He was 67 years of age.
 pr. Blauvell, who had been attending Colonel Waring during his illness, was summoned to the house at o'clock this morning. He found that Colonel Waring had been attacked with black vomit. This symptom continued all morning without cessation. Everything possible was done for the dying man, but he only lived until S:30 o'clock.
 President Murphy, of the board of health, was informed of the death of Colonel War ing within five minutes after it occurred. Dr. Roberts, the sanitary superintendent, was ordered to have the body placed in a dramatically sealed casket immediately. MT. Murphy also gave orders that every precaution should be taken to prevent the spread of the disease He said that extra ordinary precautions would be taken to this end.
 President Murphy, of the board of Waring will be placed in a dramatically sealed casket and be taken to Swinburn, Island, where it will be cremated this af- ternoon. There will be no funeral service.

\ REVISION
 WAS GRAN TED But Court of Cessation Declined to Order Dreyfus'
 Release.

Paris, October 29.-At the opening of the court of cessation today, M. Mornard re- sumed his argument in behalf of the Drey- fus family, insisting that the bordereau was not in the handwriting of Dreyfus or an imitation by him of the writing of Major Esterhazy. The latter hypothesis, counsel continued, was absolutely improba- ble. If 1t was an imitation, the author of it must be a third party. If it was no imi- tation the author of the bordereau, he asserted, can only be Major Esterhazy himself.
 Continuing, M. Mornard pointed out that the honor of the army was not involved in the doings of courtmartials, as. like other courts, they can err without their honor suffering. After M. Mornard had closed his argument the coure retired to deliberate.
 The court decided to grant revision of the Dreyfus case, and will institute a sup plemntary inquiry.

Paris, October 29.-While the Spanish and American peace commissioners now stand on the threshold of the Philippine question, it seems probable in the light of this hour that the United States will take over the entire archipelago.
 During the four days just passed those in touch with and possibly hold the confidence of the commissioners. have felt the concern tration of tendencies toward the standpoint indicated as likely to be occupied by the United States commissioners at Monday s session of the two commissions In 1897 Spain issued by royal decree bonds fin a sum of $40, ,000,000, to which are pledged the revenue of the Philippines and to which the Spanish national guarantee was added. From these S40, 900 000 of obligations Spain realized $36 900, 900 in cash. These forty mill lions represent the Philippine debt, which is entirely outside of the $100,00 900 of the so-called Philippine and Spanish general debt.
 The conditions also differ, the Philippine debt having been created by royal decree, because the archipelago was not parlia- mentary colony, while the so-called Cuban debt was created by law. The differences raise the question of the non-responsibil- ity of the Philippines when removed from the sovereignty under which it's resources were pledged.
 The Philippine Debt
 Should the United States absorb the Phil ippines, none but officials yet know whether they would assume a part or all of this debt or more than the Philippine debt. The Americans have declined to assume any of the Cuban debt, because Cuba is not theirs, but in deposing Spain in the Philippines the Americans acquire the territory, and it Is believed there will be some financial assumption by the United States. At this point arises the question of how much financial relief might compose Spain to her persons believe that Premier Sagasta has determined to be rid of the Philippines and

The court, however, has declined to order tho ra1ooea oF Drevf,,c

The court however, has declined to order the release of Dreyfus. The decision of the court is as follows:
 "In view of the letter of the minister of justice of date September 1, 1898; in view of the arguments of the public prosecutor denouncing the court for the condemna- tion pronounced by the first courtmartial of the military government of Paris on December 22 1891, against Alfred Dreyfus then captain of artillery attached to the general staff; in view of all the documents in the case and also of articles AS to 446 of the code of criminal procedure, amended by the law of June 10, 1895. rela- tive to the admissibility of an application in proper form for revision.
 "Whereas, The matter has been brought before the court by the public prosecutor in virtue of the express order of the min ister of justice.
 "whereas, The judgment, revision of which is demanded, has the force of a chose juge.
 "Whereas, The documents produced do not place the court in position to decide all the merits of the case, and there is ground for making a supplementary fn- quiry.
 "For these reasons, the court declares the application to be In proper form and legally admissible, and states that it will institute supplementary inquiry and de- clase there Is no ground at the present moment for deciding on the public prose- cutors application for a suspension of the penalty"
 The judges of the court were occupied for three and half hours considering the judgment.
 The public, whose admission to the court was regulated with the greatest care. awaited the decision with marked calm ness. During the suspension of business the public crowded into the Hobbies and vfofu fo hao fho dict. There was no demonstration when the court rose.

THE GERMANS
 FAVOR ENGLAND Would Rather See Great Britain Than France Possess
 Egypt.

Berlin, October 29-The official relations between Germany and Russia have been ruffled recently. This fact, although de- nied' by the government organs, was ob- tained from person in high authority and one of the most striking proofs of the &C., curacy of the statement is that Count Muraiveff, the minister of foreign affairs, has just visited Paris and Vienna, but ig- -nored Berlin, The German newspapers remarked this and have commented upon the omission. More significant facts are the outspoken hostile tone of the entire Russian press In which the re-approach- ment between Germany and Great Britain is described as an underhand plot against Russia. which the latter Is justified in keenly resenting in view of her friendli- ness to Germany in China.
 Moreover Emperor Williams visit to the Orient is characterized as an impudent at tempt to undermine Russian influence in

will direct his commission to sign a treaty by which the United States should take the islands and assume the $40,0 000000 debt.
 The financial condition of Spain is cited by Spanish believers as being too weak to longer maintain a colonial empire.
 The Paris press today declares resistance impossible, and that Spain should abandon the archipelago. Spaniards now in Paris declare that the Philippines are drag and that Spain would lift @ cry of joy to be relieved of them if the terrific debt press ure should be thus lessened. On the other hand Spaniards at home are clamoring that their commission should bolt the confer ence and return, thus fulfilling the highest duty.
 There are Spaniards in Paris who insist that should the United States take the Philippines without a large money consid- eration Spain's commission should return and that Spain. bidding its soldiers in Cuba and elsewhere again to take up arms, achieve thus glorious martyrdom to na- tional honor
 Commissioners Will Withdraw
 In this connection the Spanish commits sioners are awaiting the American com missions declaration and they declare they cannot sign treaty of peace involving the loss of the Philippines to Spain The writer has heard this flat allegation unac- companied by financial condition or pro- viso, but thus far the Spanish commission mas been unwilling to concede the probali- ty of its withdrawal from the conference.
 The American side involves the deter imitation between quitting the Philippines entirely or taking the entire group. Had Admiral Dewey destroyed the Spanish fleet and immediately withdrew no Amer ican would have mourned for the nom possession of the Philippines and the fact of the obligation for the conditions of their people which has been imposed upon the United States. Such an obligation It is now felt exists, save by the control. or occupation of the entire archipelago. The Americans feel that there is no possible geographical livs for dividing the Philip

Great Britain adopting extreme measures toward the khedive of Egypt unless he modifies his attitude.
 The convention providing for the lease of Wei Hai Wei to Great Britain is pub lished today. It provides that Chinese troops and warships may use the territory. Some of the British newspapers imagine this implies an arrangement by which Great Britain will recognize China's mili- tary forces.
 Great Indignation Caused
 The National Review says that there has been great astonishment and indignation in French ministerial and higher military circles of France by the publication in Russia of two frank articles by M. Zera- kowski, president of the Russian appeal court, charging the Dreyfus courtmartial amounted to return to the Lettres d Es- chat and the days of the bastile and also scathingly criticising the prosecution of M Emil Zola. It is asserted that the Russian government received remon- strances from Paris in the interval be- tween the articles, efforts being made to have M. Zerakowski silenced. But it is added the attempt failed. This Is looked upon as being evidence of a remarkable change of opinion in Russia.
 It is announced from St. Petersburg that all the powers have accepted the czar's invitation to send delegates to the pro- posed Disarmament conference.
 Each power will send three delegates and 1t will be a record breaking diplo- matic assembly in point of numbers.
 Count Muraiveff Russian minister of foreign affairs is going to Lividia, where he will confer with the czar' the out lines of the programme which will be submitted to the delegates of the powers

Silver Republican Convention.

The silver republican, convention for
the second judicial district met in this
city last Tuesday in accordance with
the conditions of the adjournment of
the Boise meeting, The Nez Perce
delegates were all present and Messrs.
Sweet, Bangs, Rees, Morgan and
Herren of Moscow, and Coutts of Ken
drick with two proxies composed the
Latah delegation.
Willis Sweet was chosen chairman
and r. t. Morgan secretary.
Messrs Lake, Coutts and Burnham
were appointed committe on crcden-
tials. The Idaho county delegation
had not appeared in person but S. e.
Herrin of Moscow presented telegram
from the county centra! committee of
the party instructing for F. l.. Moore
for Judge. This message was referred
to the convention by the committee on
credentials. The question of authority
of the Idaho county committee to
direct the vote of delegates who had
been elected by the people was dis
cussed at length and it was finally de-
cided to adjourn the convention till
7:30 p. m. to await further advice from
Idaho county. In the meantime Mr..
Herren received dispatch signed by
seven of the allotted eight delegates of
that county authorizing the vote to be
cast under instruction for f. l.. Moore
for Judge. Mr.. Herren was permitted
to so vote the Idaho county proxies
after the recess
Major Manning of the Me- Perce
delegation then placed +. l.. Moore in
and Mr.. Coutts NOM
mated f. G. Steele the republican cam
didate. Before the vote was taken
Mr.. Sweet addressed the convention.
In his speech he deprecated the idea
Of endorsing any candidate in the
selection of whom the silver republi-
cans had not been consulted. He
styled endorsement as absorption and
and not fusion. He urged independent
action for the principle of bimetallism.
Mr.. Bangs then offered as substi-
tute for the question before the house,
the nominations, a motion to appoint
a committee to wait upon Mr.. Moore
as democrat who Nigh. take action
in the premises and Mr.. McNamee
who it was said had power to act for
the populists on the matter of the dis
trict judgeship. A committee waited
upon Mr.. Moore and Mr.. McNamee
and these gentlemen appeared before
the convention. They both favored
fusion of the silver forces but as mat
ter of course could not act with author
ity for their respective parties. They
made brief statements on that line and
retired. At this time Mr.. Moore was
again nominated by Major Manning.
Mr.. Sweet was then nominated by
Mr.. Roberts. A vote followed after
some discussion. Mr.. Sweet received
13 votes and Mr.. Moore II. Mr.. Sweet
RETAINED from voting for himself but
cast two proxies which he held, for
Sweet and which he explained carried
with them instructions to that effect.
The nomination of Mr.. Sweet, upon
motion of Mr.. Lake, was made unani-
nous. Mr. Sweet pledged himself to
Withdraw IN the eveut Of the combined
silver forces meeting and taking united
action in the nomination OF candi-
date for the place. The convention
then adjourned.
