/ bassador Hay and Lord Salisbury wa:
| that in our control of the Philippines
! the "Open-dOor policy should prevail
| Yesterdays London Times quoted EN-.
! bassador Hay as having said that the
door would be open to the commerce
! of all nations" but that this did not
| imply absence of tariff taxes. 1t meant
| rather, he said, that other nations
would have facilities of trade in the
| Philippines equal to that the United
| States. In other words, there would be
no inequality or discrimination as be-
tween nations and this in fact was
what an "open-door" policy implied.
The Times added that there was no rea-
son to doubt the sincerity of the United
States or her ability to faithfully per-
form her obligations.
Congressman Dingley. chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee, and who
has by reason Of that eminent position
been called to confer with President
Mckinley many times of late, shed a
great deal Of light on this subject to-
day when he said:
1T should be borne in mind that a
very vital point as to the revenue is
involved in the possible admission of
Porto Rico, Cuba and the Philippines
into the Union as Territories or States.
These tropical islands are capable of
producing every pound Of sugar and
many other tropical products that the
United States consumes. If they should
be admitted into the Union in such a
manner as to extend our tariff over
them and thereby allow a free impor-
tation Of their products we would prob
ably lose not less than $50, 900 900 Of rev.
enue annually, which would be a very
serious situation under existing con-
ditions. All of these difficulties only
serve to emphasize the soundness of the
suggestion that the policy is TO continue
the military administration of what
ever islands fall into our hands, and in
the meantime make thorough investi-
cation of every phase of the serious
problems which must be met. This will
properly prepare US to meet them with
wise legislation"
The three most potent reasons for the
administrations conclusion to continue
stated TO be the following:
F1rst-In order to keep the pledge
made to England that the "open door,
policy should prevail (Which could not
be If we established complete sover-
eighty over the islands,
Second-1f the islands were TO be an
nexed the United States would lose $780,
100000 in revenue now annually re-
celVed from sugar importations, and
which revenue is Indispensable.
Ihlrd-The presence of our soldiers
IN the islands will hold the Filipinos in
complete subsection, whereas If we
should annex the islands an undesira BILE
element would not only become a part
ana parcel of this Union, but these ma
tives would be a source Of everlasting
trouble.
This solution Of the problem would
at the same time have a tendency to
conc1liate those who now strenuously
oppose what they term the Presidents

Picquart, bearing the signatures of
leading authors, politicians and jour-
nalists, is being widely circulated for
further names and will be presented to
the Government. This evening it is re-
ported that M. de Freycinet, Minister of
War. has consented to be interpellated
on the subject in the Chamber of Depu-
ties next Monday, when a sensational
scene may be expected.
Another of the features of the case
poured upon M. de Freycinet, who is
accused of quailing before General Eur
linden and the general staff
M. Labouri, Colonel Picouart's coun-
sci, says he is convinced 1t will be i'm
possible to condemn Picquart on the
charge of forgery, but that the accused
officer may possibly be condemned on
the charge of communicating secret
documents, although the communica-
ton was in no way inimical to the in
terests of the state.
Colonel Picquart continued his evil
dence before the Court of Cessation
throughout the whole day and his de-
position is expected to occupy several
days more. There is still some hope
that he may receive justice, owing to
the presence on the court martial of
Colonel Bonnal. who is a great friend
of Picquart, but NJ. Clemenceau, in
Aurore declares that the court-martial
is packed, and accuses M. de Freycinet
of allowing an innocent man to be vic
timized in order to increase his own
chances at the next Presidential cleo
ton.

CENTR4L FIGURES qT THE LAUNCHING

staff are dumb in the face Of the bare
faced decision Of the Military Governor
Of Paris, General Zurlinden, to try Col
onel Picquart by court-martial. while
those favoring revision are furious at
this new attempt to defeat justice and
protest against the court-martial being
ordered.
Nobody belives that Colonel PicQuart
is guilty of any crime except a cour-
ageous desire to render justice to Drey-
fus, but on all sides 1t Is recognized
that in practically secret trial he may
be condemned on some technicality,
thus attaining the apparent object,
which is to throw doubt upon his de-
positions before the Court of Casa
tion in the Dreyfus trial.
Every one is asking the motive of
General Zurlinden in SO persistently
pursuing Colonel Picquart, and why a
courtmarital, If necessary, could not
be postponed until the decision of the
Court of Cessation has been given.
Every one is asking whether it is des-
perate attempt to shield the former
Minister of War, General MERCER, and
the general staff, even at the risk of
precipitating disaster and the nations
hatred, and in any event of driving
every doubling person into the Drey-
fusite party.

FIRE DESTROYS EIGHT
KESWiCK BUILDINGS
Property Valued at Over $2O, 900
Burned in the Smelter
City.

REDDING, Nov. 25.-Fire in Keswick
the smelter city north of Redding, con-
sumed over 500 900 worth of property at an
early hour this morning. There was but
$500 insurance. Eight buildings. containing
eight saloons, drug store, variety store
and a barber shop. were burned. They
were located on North street, and consti-
tuted what was part of whisky Row.
All were frame structures, highly 1nf1am-
mable, and the contents were of much the
same character
The fire originated in Dinnigan's saloon,
and Is thought to have been of tncendiary
origin. Owing to the lack of water 1t was
with great difficulty that other and more
valuable property was saved. This was
the second fire within six months, and the
two have consumed the greater part Of
the growing town.
This mornings losses are: R. P. Dinni-
gan, building, stock and fixtures, $780, in
surance, $500: Crosby & Stewart, saloon

RUSSIA WILL NOT
TRY TO INTERFERE
But the Taking of the Philippines
May Presage the Termination of
Friendship for Uncle Sam.

BERLIN, Nov. 25.-The st. Peters,
burg correspondent of the Berlin Tage-
blatt says a Russian diplomat in the
course of an interview has declared
that Russia will not stir finger to
prevent the United States from occu-
pying the Philippines, but he said he
was unable to conceal his conviction
that the injustice of Americas atti-
tude presaged the termination Of the
friendship which has hitherto subsisted
between Russia and the United States.
LONDON, Nov. 26.-The Paris cor
respondent Of the Standard says: 1t is
limited that the delay in the peace ne
gotiations here is chiefly due to the ir-
ritation of Senor Montero Rios, who
wants to resign and has only consented
to retain his membership in the Paris
commission on personal appeal of
Senor Sagasta to his patriotism, the
premier having assured him that per-
sonal responsibility is in no wise in

General Wood Provides Means tc
Enable Cubans to Return to

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-General Wood,
commanding the Department Of Santiago,
has sent an official report to the War De-
partment, of which the following is an
extract:
"I have sent rations all along the sea-
coast and by pack trains into the interior,
using every effort to scatter the rat'ons
about in such manner as to enable the
people desiring to return to their farms
In the interior to do so with a reasonab be
assurance that they can obtain food while
waiting for the development Of thoir first
crop. Santiago to-day is as clean and

Excellent order prevails; there 1as not
been a murder in the city since our occu-
pancy.'

JUDGE 0NG ON THE
TRAIL OF Mr.. BLANDIN
Anxious to Begin Proceedings
Against the Ex-Judge for His
Attack on the Bench.

CLEVELAND, Nov 25-Judge w. G.
Ong Of the Common Pleas Court today
issued call for a meeting of the bench
to take action on the sensational attack
made on the Judges by ex-Judge Blandin
at the finish Of the Burke hearing on
Wednesday. va
At the meeting this afternoon 1t was
decided, before proceeding against Judge
BIand1n either by contempt proceedings
or through the newspapers to procure a
copy or his speech as it was taken down
by the official stenographer
1t is altogether improbable that con-
tempt proceedings will be instituted
against Judge Blandin as a majority OF
the members of the bench are opposed to
1t. Judge Ong may, however, proceed
against Judge Blandn alone If he decides
the Judge is in contempt

Call Office, Riggs Hous
Washington, Nov. rs.

Washington, Nov. 25.
The Call correspondent received to-
day from a close friend of the admin
istration what is believed TO be an en-
irely reliable statement to the effect
that 1t is the purpose of President Nc
Kinley to continue the existing military
government over the Philippines at
least during the remainder of his term
Of Office. The treaty making power is
Of course vested in the Senate as we'll
as the President of the United States,
and the result Of the agreement reach
ed at Paris will have to be ratified by
the Senate. But when 1t comes to en-
acting a form of government for the
Philippines both bodies of Congress
will have to be consulted. So, when it
is stated that President Mckinley has
determined to continue in force the
military government, the consent Of
Congress is taken into consideration.
1t is believed that the leaders who are
his supporters in both the House and
the Senate are aware Of his determina-
ton.
This solution Of the Philippine prob
lem has been hinted at for some time
OF late reports have been printed to
the effecthhat the United States would
over the islands, though the exact na-
ture of our control over them has been
variously surmised. The discussion of
the open door, policy during the past
few weeks has given the public an in
sight into the administration probable
intentions. The Berlin cablegram To the
London Times and that papers edl-
torial comment on the open door" pol
icy. printed yesterday, and especially
that part of it quoting Secretary Hay,
have given a clew to the proposed pro-
gramme.
1t was pointed out in these dispatches
several weeks go that several months
since there were rumOrs of an Anglo
American alliance, but that they were
based on agreement between En-
baG-gSfr>r- Fay, Lord Salisbury and Mr.
Chamberlain, whereby England ano
America were to join hands in the East
and compete jointly for the trade of
the Orient, where Germany is making
such rapid strides and where Russia
promises to acqupire all of the Chinese
empire eventually if her aggressions
are not resisted. The United States
did not bind herself to aid England
with an armed force to resist Russian
aggressions in Manchuria, but England
was anxious the United States should
retain the Philippines in order that the
two great English-speaking people
might use 1t as a base or entering
wedge for a gradual extension Of trade
in the Orient, especially beyond the
Chinese walls where Russia and Ger
many are beginning to make CONNER
cial headway.
Another agreement reached by En-

A MODERN BATTERY
Naval Board Recommends That It Be
Made First-Class Training
Ship.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 25.-The Naval
Board Of Construction at It's meeting to-
day decided to recommend to the Secre-
tary Of the Navy that the old ship Mont
can be overhauled at the Mare Island
Navy-yard, California, and made into a
ffrst-class training vessel for naval an
prentices. The boards plans provide for
putting in a spar deck and new boilers
and installing modern battery, so that
ties. 1t was estimated that the entire
work of Improvement would cost ahont
100000. The Mohican was built at Mare
island in 1892
