Vancouver Barracks, 1t is said, have re-
Gently been ordered to San Francisco;
ten companies Of the Third Artillery are
scattered along the coast, but the
greater number are in California; the

General Miles believes it would be ad-
visable to have cavalry troops accom-
pany the infantry and artillery, for the
reason that they would be extremely
valuable for patrol duty. Their num-
ber, however, necessarily would be linn
tied because Of the great amount or
room required for the transportation of
the horses. The matters of arms and
equipments for the militia, together
with any ordnance supplies that may
be necessary, will be net by the War
Department from the Benicin arsenal,
| in California. For transportation pur-
poses. the department officials say,
there is no lack of available vessels on
the coast.
1t is said at the department lhat
commander for the troops to go to the
Philippines has not yet been decided
upon. Brigadier-General Merriam is in
command of the Department of Califor-
MIA and the Columbia, and he may be
selected, though there are other officers
available for the command, which Is
eagerly sought.
A reticence in making public the
plans of the expedition is noticeable
among the officials and heads of several
of the bureaus who will be called on to
assist in furnishing supplies have not
vet even been advised Of the depart
ment's purpose.

THE PHILIPPINES.
The London Spectator" Urges the
United States to Keep Them.

LONDON. May THE Spectator
in an article to-day urges America to
keep the Philippine Islands, to raise
colored army of 10000 men, land with
this effective Sepoy army, hold the
Philippines. Hawaii and Porto Rico,
having the army of occupation out OF
the local revenues.
Continuing, the Spectator says:
with such a garrison these islands
would be as safe as drawing groom,
and as full of business as Broadway or
the Strand
Referring to the outcome of the war,
the Spectator remarks: 1.-The Amer
leans will emerge from the war with
new ideas and larger ambitions. They
will have defeated second-ciass Eu-
ropean State and will feel acutely that.
as matters stand they would have been
defeated by first-class one. They
could not have fought France, to say
nothing of Great Britain, without sur
fering grave defeats at sea and enor-
NOUS losses on land. That is not the
position which suits American temper,
and Washington will set itself to con-
struct ffrst-class iron fleet. That once
built. the desire for position in the
world equal to their position among
nations will compel them to abandon
the idea of non-intervention and change
the Monroe doctrine into direct and
effective protectorate of the two Amer
icas.
I'VE hope the Americans will keep
the Philippines. and that they can keep
them there is no doubt whatever. Eu-
rope. to put the truth in its most bru-
tai form, cannot attack them without

WINS a Train Robbery Planned?

JOPLIN, Mo-, April What appears
to have been an unsuccessful attempt
to hold up Pittsburg & Gulf train
occurred at one o'clock yesterday
morning near Upton ford, II miles
south of Joplin. The conductor of a
northbound freight train reported
that band of robbers were stationed
near Upton ford. His suspicious were
aroused by red lantern swung across
the track as the freight approached
the station. When the engineer slowed
up, no robbers appeared and 1t was
supposed that, finding the train was a
freight instead Of passenger, the rob-
beers withdrew into the woods
