When a man, Malay native or any other
kind, becomes as illogical as Aguinaldo is
reported to be, the sooner he is dis
patched with club the better for hu-
manity. 1t is said that Agunaldo who
heads an insurrection against alleged op-
preston by certain religious orders
which hitherto have monopolized control
of affairs in the Philippines, intends to
revenge himself on them by a general
massacre of Catholics. For an Eastern
liberator who pretends to be fighting for
religious liberation Aguinaldo is too
much of a joke to be permitted to live.
The necessity for an adequate American
army in the archipelago is very apparent,
and the sooner it is organized and placed
on the ground, the better.

No Old Fogyism
fFrom the New York Tribune.

(From the New 1oTk ITioune.)
The fact Is that the whole history of the
American people has been the breaking down of
American systems. social industrial. political.
We broke down American system when we e.
tablished a nation in place of some petty
States: when told Europe that the old pan
of colonial expansion on this continent was at
end; when we annexed Louisiana. Fl1rida.
Texas California, Alaska. Hawaii; when We es-
tdblished the secret ballot; when we overthrow
the spoils system. The plea that abuse must
be protected because it is American is as old
the nation, and every advance has from the
beginning been denounced as IN American and
still viii be. whether il is planned 10 secure
seats for everybody in street cars or TO do our
duty as one OF the powers of the world But in
spite OF all dire fCreLOdings Il the American peOP.e
have uniformly shown that the American system
was the enc which seemed hest adapted to meet
the requirements CT a particular situation. not
what some cid fogy told them the method
they had followed in other times.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 3. 1895.
The Note and the Philippines,

Yesterday the State Department is
sued an official bulletin, covering, as
stated. the substance of Pres dent Nc
Kinley's note to Spain in reply to the
request Of the Madrid government for
information regarding the terms upon
which the United States would be will
ing to make peace.
1t was well not to delay an official
utterance on this subject any longer.
A wrong impression as to the contents
of the note had been derived from per-
sons who claimed and were believed to
be familiar with its text On such au-
thority. including that of at least enc
Cabinet officer, a general impression
spread apace that it was the intention
OF the Administration to segregate the
Philippine from the other questions
that must enter into a peace settle
nent. and to delegate its consideration
to a commission half Spanish and half
American, with power to decide the
future sovereignty and so on of cur
larger Oriental possession.
The language of the note, as it is
referred to in the State Department
bulletin, does not justify the idea above
mentioned, as anyone can easily see.
1t is, therefore, strange that it should
have gained currency through state
snents Of inside and normally reliable
lrties. The suspicion is excusabie
that, when persons in the confidence of
the Cabinet talked about the matter, it
was the actual purpose rather than the
words of the message that they had in
mind and half unconsciously expressed.
In the note itself there is nothing to
show affirmatively that there is dis
position on the part OF the Admin:stra-
Philippines, or to trade them away in
whole OF in part for the political and
financial assistance in the Autumn
elections and in 1900 of the Spanish
bond holding and other interests work
ing against their enforcement 1t is
quite apparent, however, that the
gratuitous and unnecessary offer to
leave open the question of possession
and control affords ground for sur
prise and criticism.
Nothing could be much more motor
ious than the fact that Secretary Day,
who is the putative author CT the state
paper in question, is opposed to Phil
ippine annexation and to American ex-
pansion in any form. 1t is equally well
advertised that ex-senator Edmunds.
who has been officially spoken of as
the international wet nurse and nur-
sery goyerness of the State Depart
ment. is not only an opponent of So
called imperialism" but is credited
with being the attorney for some Of the
chief influences now working to save
the Dewey archipelago to Spain, or at
least TO prevent the American psople
from holding or profiting by it, to the
detriment of Spanish bonds, the Sugar
Trust industry, or the vested interests
OF certain powerful societies until lately
monopolizing civil and economic con-
troll in the territory.
It is therefore natural to infer that
the open door would not have been left
In the proposition without a sufficient
motive, and it would take great deal
of proof to satisfy the average inteIIi-
gent citizen that it was not connected

Lieut.. Richard Wainwright Is having no

TIoN OF PREACHERS.
Two Petitions Asking For a Reduc-
ton In the Heavy Armaments
Maintained By Christian Nations.

Washington, Dec. ga delegation
presented to the president two peti-
tions, one from the great majority of
the organized Protestant Christian
churches of the world, and the other
from the presbyterian alliance.
This petition has been placed in charge
Of the Rev. William Henry Roberts,
the American secretary of the Pan
Presbyterian alliance, and with him
were the Rev. Wallace Radcliffe, Rev.
A. w. Pitzer of Washington, Rev. w.
". Barr of Philadelphia, and Rev. j.

The president responded cordially to
the delegations, saying that he favored
arbitration between Great Britain and
America. He also said that he had re-
sponded promptly to the czar's propos-
al for disarmament, but that under
present circumstances the armaments
of the United States could not be les
sened, but would, in any event, be
less than would satisfy European ma

OGDEN MAN TRIES TO KILL HIM
SELF WITH MORPHINE.
Suffered Many Misfortunes, the Last

CBy Telephone to The HeraId.)

Ogden, Dec. 30.-HeGber Brown, son
of Moroni Brown. attempted suicide at
midnight by taking morphine, and at
an early hour this morning it could not
be determined whether he would live or
die, though the chances appear slightly
in favor Of his recovery. Brown has
been respondent for some time, and
his poverty is the only reason sur
missed for his rash act. He has a wife
and children living on South Washing
ton avenue, and things have been go
ing against him in financial way of
late. Last Saturday a valuable horse
died just after he had refused a tempt
ing offer for him, and since then he
has brooded a good deal and made re-
marks that he could never get through
the winter. Last night he procured
some morphine and got a glass of
water at a saloon. He mixed some of
the drug in a glass and tried to drink
it, but succeeded in drinking only a
part of it, being prevented by the pro-
pT,ietor. He admitted having taken
poison, and told them they might send
for the police. He walked to the sta
ton with officer Murray, but soon af-
ter was seized with commissions.
DR.. Dickson, the city physician, was
summoned, and after working over him
several hours said that he might re-

officer F'arr noticed the man acting
queerly, and saw him purchase the
drug, and either take some or pretend
to do so before he went to the saloon,
so that he either took two doses or

GREEDY YANKEES ABOUT TO

Toronto World Announces That the,
Expansion Ilea In the United
States Involves the Annexation of
Canada-England May Give Her
Consent-General Wilson's Report.

Toronto, Dec. 29.-The Toronto
World, which opposes the present Lib
eral government at Ottawa, has a
startling editorial today, under the
heading, Canada on the Brink" in
which it warns the people Of this coun-
try that times are critical, so far as
the maintenance of Canada as a, free,
Independent and integral portion of
North America is concerned.
UNLESS Canadians" declares the
World, ARE fully alive to the situa-
ton, and speak out in no uncertain
way, they will find themselves between
a graSping annexation movement in the
United States, having for its end the
domination of the whole continent, and
a great party in England, prepared to
make almost any sacrifices to the
United States in consideration of some
kind of support of England in her race.
with Russia, France and with other
European powers.
The World then refers to the recent
speech at Macon, Ga, of Major Gen
eral James II. Wilson of Delaware, in
which that gentleman expressed the
hope that he would see the day when
our starry flag shall float everywhere,
from the frozen north to tine sunny
climes of Central America
We believe" the World proceeds,
that these words of Mr.. Wilson only
show too well the opinion of a great
number of Americans, when once their
appetite for expansion is aroused in
the direction of the north and if once
they get it into their headss that they
only have to go far enough in their
great game of bluff, which seems to be
their best and their strongest card in
diplomacy, will force Canada, willy
nilly into annexation.
In, conclusion the paper says: ''We
are nearer to absorption than ever we
were. Do Canadians realize it?"

NEW YORK'S MURDER MYSTERY
NO CLUE IN THE ADAMS POISON
ING CASE.
Believed That the Sender Of the Dead
ly Package Is a Woman-Cor-
nish's Marrow Escape.

New York, Dec 29.-The Adams Cor
nish poisoning case remains as great a
mystery as ever. When the detective
bureau. the district attorneys 5 Office. the
coroner's office and others seeking to
find d solution of the strange case end
ed their labOrS for the day, all said that
nothing had been learned that might
assist in bringing the guilty persons to
justice.
The police are inclined to believe that
the person who sent the poison to Cor
nish is a woman, although the evidence
is of the most flinsy character, and is
largely based on opinions of more or
less responsible parties Mr. Cornish,
who was also poisoned at the time of
Mrs. Adams death, is now completely
out of danger, though confined to his
bed at the Knickerbocker Athletic
club
pr. Coffin gave an interesting state
ment of how Cornish escaped death,
while Mrs. Adams. drinking from the
same glass, was killed by the deadly
poison.
Cornish mixed the poison said Dr.
Coffin, "and gave it to Mrs Adams. She
drank but a little, complaining that it
was bitter. Cornish then took the re-
mainder and drained the glass to the
dregs. 1 think that the reason Cornish
was not Killed is that he drank the
dregs and Mrs. Adams took the poison
in solution. The quantity of powdered
matter acted as an emetic and cleared
his stomach
When they found he was unable to
come to them. Captain McClusky and
Mr.. Mcintyre, accompanied by a steno-
grapher. went to the Knickerbocker
Athletic club and were in conference
with Mr.. Cornish for more than an
hour.
Captain McClusky said nothing had
been learned that had not been already
published. Cornish told him that the
silver holder had evidently been used,
and while it was marked Sterling" it
was plated. 1t was not a Tiffany arti-
Gle. but came in a Tiffany box and had
a Tiffany card in the package.
