General Aguinaldos policy embraces
the independence of the Philippines,
whose internal affairs would be con
troled under European and American
advisers. American protection would
be desirable. temporarily, on the same
lines IS that which might be instituted
hereafter in Cuba The ports Of the
PHILIPPINES would be free to the trade
of the world, safeguards being enacted
against an influx OF Chinese aliens,
who would compete with the industli-
ous population of the country. There
would be a complete reform OF the pres

hindrances to enterprise and the invest
ment of capital. The Spanish officials
would be removed to place of safety
until an opportunity offered for them

of public safety and order, and the
checking of reprisals against the Span
ilrds, would naturally have been the
first care Of the government in the new

The Temperature of Well water
Rising Rapidly.
The wells along a defined line to the
south and west Of Phoenix have within
a week become producers OF not water,
and apprehension is felt by many OF
the residents of the region affected
that they are about to become partici-
pants In a grand volcanic drama. In
some OF the wells the temperature OF
the well water rose TO 20 degrees in
a single night In a few the phenom-
enon disappeared soon after its appear
ance. In majority OF the cases, how
ever. the wells fairly steam from their
newly acquired heat. The first known
Of this curious state OF affairs was a
report nearly two weeks ago that the
wells at Maricopa, on the Southern Pa
cific Railroad, 80 miles south of Phoe-
aix, had suddenly become hot. Il was
four days thereafter that the phenom-
enon first was noticed a dozen miles
west of this city. A test at one well
showed a temperature Of nearly loo
degrees No difference is noted in the
wells In the immediate vicinity of
Phoenix.
The line OF the subterranean heat
wave follows the general direction oi
the Sierra Estrella Mountains, vol
cano chain lying Immediately south oi
The Gila River. Thence Il appanrs to
continue on in the diredSken of the
Harqua Hala Mountains, near which

volcanic cones and hills OF drifting

lava flows are so geologically modern
as to have overwhelmed in a number
Of places the cliff dwellings of the an
clients
Though no earthquake shocks have
been noted in Southern Arizona for
years. 1t is the general belief that hot
springs have broken out at each OF the
points affected, for the line OF the phe-
lomenon passes two rivers. This view
IS supported by the fact that at Aqua
