WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-An inter esting question and one of vital i'm portance to the administration is the attitude to be assumed by the United States toward the Philippine insurgents in the event that we reach an agree H9ent for the. suspension of hostilities with Spain. It is stipulated in our peace terms that the United States military forces shall occupy and estab- fish military form of government over the city of Manila and the bay. with the surrounding territory. This involves an immediate surrender of the Spanish forces, not to AguinaldO, but to General Merritt, and there is now apprehension that the insurgents will resent this bit oterly and that it will be necessary to eXpel them forcibly from the territory described.
 Beyond this, it is said in some quar- 'ters that pending the decision of the peace commissioners as to the future of the Philippines, the United States will be morally bound to maintain the statu quo in the island at large. In other words, having deprived Spain of the ? means of resisting the onslaughts of the Insurgents, it has been urged that the United States would be bound to prevent the latter continuing their warfare.
 There is a lack of information in Washington on many important points as to the conditions in the Philippines. For instance, it is not known, even approximately, how extensive the revo- lutionary movement has been through out the vast group of 1900 islands and among the large population, estimated to aggregate between 5000, ,0OO and 15,- 100000. If the revolutionary movement is general and extends to very many of the islands, the task presented to the United States military and naval au- thorities will be one of great magni- tude, in the event that it is decided to be incumbent on us not to restore Span ish sovereignty where it has been lost, bat to prevent its overthrow in sections

 FRIEDRICHSRUHE Aug. 3.-The publication of Bismarck's memoirs Is most unlikely for years to come, as this has been left entirely in the hands of Prince Herbert, and qualification of public curiosity is about the last thing in the world to influence him. Lothar Brecher told me before he died that Bismarck's memoirs consisted then of two bulky volumes, already complete in themselves, and that one would be published during the Princes lifetime and another after his death. These dispositions were as indicated above and altered since Lothar Brecher died.
 pr. Schweninger quilted Friedrichs- ruhe at midnight. Before he left we strolled up the hill together, on which the mausoleum will be built. and sat down on a rude wooden bench on which Bismarck rested. where he used to lean on his stick and gaze over the valley, and where, sitting with Dr. Schweninger, the idea struck him that he would like to be buried at that par ticular spot.
 "Yes," the doctor unused, "here he will have a cathedral all to himself. arched over by the oaks and beeches he loved so we'll"
 pr. Schweninger tells me that his life's work was over when Bismarck died. This was his sacred task. guarding that precious life. Bis marck's bright humor occasionally shone forth in all it's radiance until the last, but his animal spirits visibly de- clined during the final few months. The complete isolation in which he lived added materially to depress him. He used to long for Schweninger 70 come. "I am glad you have come. turn to others. but they do not under stand me; what I say Is to them like water running down the back of a peli- can." he would declare sadly.
 One of the saddest features connect ed with the last few months of his life was that his favorite hounds. his fond est companions, died before him.. No one remains to-day to whine and sor- row beside his bier.

and King, are deeply affected by the death of the man whom God, the LoTu, fashioned as his instrument to achieve the realization of the undy1ng asplra- tion of the Germans for unity ana greatness.
 This is not the moment to enumer- ate all the achievements of the great man who has gone to his rest, or to re- fer to all the cares he bore for the Elm peror and the empire, and all the sue cesses he won.

 When Prince Herbert declined sec ond time the Emperor's proner or grave in the Berlin Cathedral his Maj esty indicated a plan for national monument. It is understood he pro- poses to place in the cathedral an i'm yt11a figure of Bismarck in the uniform of g. cuirrassier.
 Rather an unseemly Wrangle has arisen in the press concerning the ex- act causes and circumstances of the Princes death, and the fact that no autopsy was held makes 1t impossible to silence scandal-loving tongues.
 Professor Virchow, interviewed on the subject declined to express an opinion on the vague information available, but said he was disposed to think that the death of the Prince was painless.

 ''The numerous expressions of deep af- fiction and cordial sympathy which testify to the imperishable memory of my great father are so overwhelming in their eX- tent that it appears impossible to thank the mourners singly, even to the end of my own life.
 From all five continents of the globe the sorrow of the family bowed over the coffin is re-echoed in touching sympathy and it grieves me to be unable to an swer every. manifestation Of this feel ing I beg the German newspapers to grant space for these words: tr
 Tn the name of the nearest relatives I thank with my whole heart all who, by words of comfort or floral tributes from those we have never seen, have giv- en expression to the splendor of sorrow which fills our land. |"
