CUBAN OR AMERICAN LIVES
BLOCKADE MEANS
DIFFERENTIATION OF NATIVES.
On the Other Hand, an Invasion
Would Mean Death to Many
American Soldiers-A Cuban View

New York. June 1.-THE Medical
News, in its issue of today, will pub
lish a discussion of the ACCESSIBILITY of
a summer campaign in Cuba, written
by Dr. F. L. Paine of Philadelphia, who
is Cuban-American, in which he says
in part:
'The unpreparedness of the military
branch of the government has become
so apparent and from all accounts the
necessity of a much larger body of
troops to invade the island so evident,
that l can well understand the hesita-
ton on the part of the Washington au-
thorities to land troops at this season of
the year around Havana and MatanZaS.
In fact I am about convinced that I'M
less Havana, in the meanwhile, capitu-
lates from lack of food, no troops will
be landed in that province before the
month Of October or November.
Around Santiago the conditions are
greatly different. The country all about
is billy and much more healthful and
by utilizing the several thousand in
surgents in the neighborhood for the
purposes of Earrisoning the city after
its capitulation, the American troops
could be safely encamped all summer
under decidedly more advantageous
conditions than at Chickamauga or
Tampa.
From the point of view of a Cuban,
this pacific blockade, especially if kept
UP all summer, means the practical eX-
termination of ali the people in these
three proVinces-Pinar del Rio, Havana
and Matanzas-and as the war, we are
told, was undertaken for the purpose
of saving these people, why should not
American troops be Immediately landed
on the island, even if they do run the
risk of a high death rate from CHI
matte conditions, etc?
ION the other hand, as Americans, we
are justified in reasoning the matter.
We are certainly not prepared for such
an undertaking. Our soldiers, mostly
men who were only yesterday clerks
and mill hands, are not even supplied
with one of the most essential and vital
things for a summer campaign in the
tropics, and that is suitable clothing.
In such an undertaking we know that
climate does not influence mortality as
much as deficient preparation and lack
Of organizations therefore, let us take
into consideration the lives of 10000 or
10000 Americans as against the cuban
who are perhaps, already |
beyond any human aid. This pacific |
blockade will certainly force Havana to |
capitulate long before October and by |
that time we shall have a thoroughly |
trained and properly equipped body of |
troops

ENGLAND'S FRIENDSHIP.
Alliance Is Favored By All Except
the Irish.

London, June 11.-Last evenings pro-
ceedings in parliament contained illus
trations of the high favor in which
Americans are held here just now.
Every allusion of Sir William Vernon
Harcourt or Mr.. Chamberlain 10 the
suggested alliance or understanding
was loudly cheered, the Irish alone dis
senting.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt, the
Liberal leader, said: No one is more
anxious or more eager for closer and
more permanent relations with the
United States than myself. Ever since
1 have had anything to do with public
life. my foremost object has been the
cultivation of good relations with the
United States. There have been mis-
chieVous attempts to represent that
there was differences between the two
political parties on this subject. There
is no such difference. There is no
member of the Liberal party, any more
than of the Unionist party, who does
not place friendship, alliance, if you
choose to use the word in the sense
of friendship. with the United States
in the very front of English politics"
Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain, at the end
of a long defense of his policy as sec
rotary of state for the colonies, made
an eloquent reiteration of his desire
for close, cordial and intimate rela-
tions with the United States, adding:
And the more close, the more init
mate and the more definite they are
the better 1 shall be satisfied"
At one point of his speech Mr.. Cham
berlain was repeatedly interrupted by
the Irish, and the Daily Chronicle says
it thinks he will rue the bitter words
with which he finally answered them.
Mr.. Chamberlain's words were: THE
Irish will have something to say to it,
but 1 am thankful to say the Ameri-
cans will not listen"

CAUSE OF THE PHILIPPINE WAR
WHY NATIVES REBELLED A
SEC0IID TIME.
Spain Tricked the Insurgents By
Promising Reforms If They Would
Lay Down Their Arms.

Vancouver. B. c., June 11.-Some
very interesting information was
brought by the steamer Empress of
Japan, from Hongkong. regarding ne
gotiatiOns between the Philippine rebel
chief and the United States at Singa-
pore, and the causes leading to the
second appearance of the rebellion in
the Philippines, which was almost Co
incident with, though not instigated
by, the strained relations between
Spain and the United States.
In December last General Primo Ri
vera, who above all other Spanish
generals, had intimate knowledge Of
the country and it's inhabitants, found
the position untenable for both parties.
Neither of these had the remotest'
chance to terminate the rebellion de-
cisively, the rebels being secure in
their mountain Businesses, the Span
iards holding the chief towns and vii
lagos on the coast. Primo Rivera,
therefore, sent two well known Phil
ippine natives occupying high positions
in Manila, to propose terms of peace
to Aquinaldo in Blac Ma BatO. A cOun-
ell of the revolutionary government
was held, in which they agreed to lay
down their arms, on condition of GER
tain reforms being introduced.
Primo de Rivera agreed to these re-
forms in substance and made its con-
ditiOn that the principal rebel leaders
must leave the country during his ma
jeSty'S pleasure. As these leaders had
lost all of their property or had it con-
fiscated and plundered. the government
agreed to provide them with funds to
live in a becoming manner on foreign
soil. The rebels laid down their arms
and peace was apparently secured, but
no sooner had they done so and re-
turned to their homes than the in
transigent religious orders commenced
at once to again prosecute them and
trump up imaginary charges to pro-
cure their re-arrest. The Spanish gov
eminent, on its imagining itself secure,
deSisted from carrying out the prom
ised reforms, thinking a trick like that
played on the Cubans after a peace ar
rangement by Martinez de CampoS
might succeed. The Philippines, how
ever, refused to be made dupes and
have taken up arms again, not alone
in the immediate districts around Ma
Mia, but throughout the archipelago.

just come to light that a sack contain

many of them, and hopes soon to have
them all sent to their destinations.
