List of Corruption.

CAMBRIDGE, MASS. october 29.-Pro-
fessor Charles Elliot Norton, in an adj
dress before the Graduates Club of Har-
ward College. this evening, expressed
sentiments which are likely TO arouse as
much discussion among Harvard men and
others as has followed many Of Profess
sor Norton's recent utterances. The
sneakers subject was "The New Ameri-
ca" In the course Of his remarks he
reviewed the conditions which make this
republic in many ways an experiment IN
the history Of democracies. Continuing,
he said:
mo one would have thought the Ameri-
can nation so devoid of sense as to go to
war in the beginning Of the hot season in
tropical climate, and without any
adequate preparation to carry that war
to a successful issue.
This war was a revelation. The old
America came to an end with the declara-
ton of war. The new America threw
over many Of the old ideals which have
been maintained by this old America,
and substituted for them those of the
other nations of the world We must
make up our minds to the new condi-
tons. We are to be military nation.
Moreover all brutal tendencies viii be
encouraged by the recognition Of force
as the last appeal by the central govern
ment itself, and too, entanglements with
other nations must arise.
WE ARE LEADERLESS.
Meanwhile, we have no leaders, ana
hence we find ourselves with great re-
sponsibilties and no guidance for the ig-
norant. uniformed, inhammable popu-
lace: and we are allowing events to carry
MS into the most dangerous situations
The whole system Of government needs
10 be revised and reorganized. The pen
sion list is a list of corruption. and has
| lowered the morals of the recipients whlle
| IL has increased the national indebted
ness -,
els there nothing TO be done? Ihe
| situation is to be met with courage and
| n determination to get the best out or
| bad case. We must divorce the govern
ment of these dependencies from politics
or else they will become dens of corrup-
| ton"

General Butler as to the reason that
General Blanco had ordered the suspen-

WE WILL TAKE ALL PHILIPPINES.
Spain May Insist That We Take
$40, JOO.O 900 of Debt With Them.

PARIS. October 29.-While the Spanish
and American Peace Commissioners now
stand upon the threshold Of the Philip
pine question. IL seems probable, in tine
light OF this hour. that the United states
will take over the entire archipelago.
During the four days just passed, those
in touch with, though possibly not in the
confidence Of the commissioners, have
felt the concentration Of tendencies to-
ward the standpoint indicated. as likely
to be occupied by the United States Com
missioners at Mondays session of the
two commissions.
In 1897, Spain issued, by royal decree,
bonds in ;he sum of $i0,O00,sO, to which
were pledged the revenues Of the Philip
pines, and to which the Spanish national
guarantee was attached. From these
$iO.OOOOOO of obligations Spain realized
$3G. 100000 in cash. These forty millions
represent the Philippine debt, which is
entirely outside OF the s7OO, OOO 900 of the %
called Philippine and Spanish general
debt.
STATUS OF PHILIPPINE DEBT.
The conditions also differ, the Philippine
debt having been created by Royal de-
cree, because the archipelago was not a
parliamentary Colony, while the so-called
Cuban debt was created by law.
The difference raises the question of
the non-responsibility of the Philippines
when removed from the sovereignty un-
der which it's resources were pledged
Some well-informed persons believe that
Premier Sagasta has determined to be rid
Of the Philippines, and would direct his
commission to sign a treaty by which the
United states should take the islands and
assume the $4OOOG,OO0 of debt.
SPANIARDS MAY WITHDRAW.
| On the eve Of the Philippine negotia-
tions there is unofficial anticipation that
no treaty will be signed which involves
the loss Of the Philippines to Spain with
out large financial consideration, and it
would not cause surprise should the Span
| iards, at some stage Of the considerations,
withdraw as body, or If some members
should resign, elfecting the same result.
The American commissioners to-day re-
ceiyed from Washington full advices in
| response to the submission Of their in
dividual views regarding the Philippine
| question. and two sessions were held to
consider these replies.

THE WATER SUPPLY.
Edward Belts. engineer OF the Chicka-

ticulars OF the establishment of the water
supply system OF the park for the army.
He said there was an amply supply OF
water for the troops at all times ana
that there would have been space COR
Is 600 more troops on the pipe line.
j. C. Howell, railroad station agent, told
OF an instance in which fifty-four SICK
men, being part OF a Wisconsin command,
bad been placed on a train and started
TO their homes without medical supplies
or physicians and without furloughs or
transportation papers. They were taken
off the train at Chattanooga and their
wants administered to by members OF the
relief societies.
PHYSICIANS INCOMPETENT.
Ira ]. Haines, a private acting as
member OF the hospital corps, who said
he had been a practicing physician IN
Louisville, KY. for eight years, was eN-
amined on the lines OF communication
he had sent to the commission. in TINS
communication he had charged that pa
traata1 fpr fNphniH- fever
when they plainly had pneumonia. Upon
being pressed he modified his statements,
saving that he had had no consultations
with the physicians as TO their line OF
treatment. He said. however, that he
considered some of the physicians incom-
petent. He also charged that appoint
ments were made in the hospital upon po-
litical influence.
Captains Daniel Il. Mccarthy and NJ. G..
Zalinskl. OF the quartermaster's depart
ment al this point. gave testimony as 10
the conduct Of this office. They agreed
that the administration of the depart
