SETTLEMENT OF DIFFERENCE


Senate Bill No. "a, introduced
by Senator Brown, is an Act 10
amend section lao Of the Civil
Code, relating to the submission
of differences 10 the Supreme
Court without action. IL provides
that parties TO question in diff
ference which might be the sub
ject Of a civil action in the Circuit
Court or Supreme Court may,
without action, agree upon a case
containing the facts upon which
controversy depends and present
a submission Of the same to the
Justices of the Supreme Court
either in term time or in vacation.
but II must appear by affidavit
that the controversy is real ana
the proceedings ia good faith to
determine the rights of the par
ties. Provided, however, that the
Justices of the Supreme Court
may in their discretion require
the case to he first submitted to a
Circuit Judge at chambers, sub
ject to appeal.
In its report on the bill the
Senate Judiciary Committee say:
previous to the passage of the
Judiciary Act of 1892, which re-
organized the Judiciary of the
Islands, aud under which Act we
are now working, parties to
question in difference and which
difference might be the subject of
a civil action, had the right under
the section now sought to be
amended, to submit the same to
the Supreme Court upon an agreed
statement of facts without the
Formally of bringing an action.
This method was simple, differ
ences were settled speedily, and
with comparatively small expense.
Upon the passage of the Judi
ciary Act, the jurisdiction of the
Supreme Court WAS made almost
entirely appellate, and although
Section lao was not repealed in
terms by the Judiciary Act, it is
repealed or may have been re-
pealed by implication. However
that may be, it is deemed safer
and in the interests of all who
may have differences or questions
to settle, which cannot be settled
by themselves amicably, to re-
move any questions and amend
the section, 80 that when its pro-
visions are sought to be taken ad-
vantage of, it can be done, and no
questions raised rs to the legality
or jurisdiction of the proceedings
authorized under the section
sought to be amended.
We recommend the passage of
the Bill.

New York, May ia commission
er sent to Gomez camp has returned
here. Gomez formally declares his
readiness to cooperate with Miles and
Sampson whenever the United States
has available the land forces necessary
to take Havana without risking many
of our soldiers.
Hunger in the field almost equals
Weyler's cemetery towns. Ten
thousand Cuban revolutionists have
died in the last four months. Gomez
own forces in Santa Clara are now liv-
ing vicariously On small game. Other
portions are worse, and but 100000
healthy soldiers remain.
There are IL, 900 men in Southeast
ern Cuba; 1900 in Santa Clara under
GARLIC, 1900 in Matanzas under Betan-
court; 1900 in Havana under various
small leaders; 5000 in Pinar del Rio.
Pedro Diaz and Mayi Rodriguez are un-
der the experienced and skillful Gomez,
and there are full, 20, 900 more Cubans
anxious to fight if armed, equipped

pied by few regular troops, the most
moderate estimate is 40, 900 resolute Gu

DEWEY'S PROMOTION.

A Substantial Recognition of His Re-
narkable Victory.
Washington, May IL. - A fitting
tribute was paid by the senate to Com
modore Dewey for the magnificent vic
tory he achieved in the battle of Manila
bay. The message from the president
was received recommending that vote
OF thanks be extended by congress to
Commodore Dewey and the gallant
officers and men of his command.
Without word of debate and without
dissenting voice, the senate agreed to
the resolution carrying into effect the
recommendation of the president.
The senate went farther than that.
A bill was passed increasing the num-
ber of rear-admirals to seven, in order
that the president might nominate
Dewey to the, highest position in the
navy within his gift, and that, too, was
passed without dissent.
In addition. joint resolution was
unanimously agreed to, directing the
secretary of the navy to present to
Commodore Dewey sword of honor,
and have struck, in commemoration of
the battle of Manila, bronze medal
for each of the officers and men who
participated in the gallant fight. The
resolution approprlates $4,000 to ena-
BILE the secretary to carry these provis-
ions into effect.

NO SURRENDER.
The Spaniards at Manila Are Still
Arrogant.


Arrogant.
London, May ia dispatch to the
Daily Mail from Hong Kong says a
communication from Manila asserts
that the Spaniards are still arrogant
and not likely to surrender until the
city is blown to pieces. A telegraph
operator has gone with the McCulloch
to see what can be done with the cable.
The Hong Kong correspondent of the
Chronicle says the British in Manila
have forwarded petition to Vice-Ad-
miral Seymour, mander-in-c chief of
the Chinese station, for further naval
assistance, and it is anticipated that
additional ships will be sent there.
The British consul is working in har-
mony with the American commander,
but it is felt that the British interests
require supervision by a force suffici-
ent to keep the SpaniaIds and natives
in check.
There is no desire to advocate Brit
ish acquisition of the Philippines, thus
completing the chain of British posses
sions from the Straits settlements by
Borneo to this colony. 1t is felt that
the occupation of the Philippines by
any other great European power would
be most dangerous to their interests.
Business at Manila is at a complete
standstill, but the Spaniards are not
likely to surrender until the city is
blown to pieces. The British inhabit-
ants, however. are confident that the
trouble will soon be over.

painful monotony of the story was
broken this morning by news of victims
killed and wounded in their wild at

and almost every town in the province
of that name there were serious disor-

quelled by the military. Now it ap-
pears that the prisons are too small and
too few to contain the people arrested.

battle ensred with the municipal
guards. The rioters possessed them
selves of quantity of firearms, and
the streets were barricaded, and they
remained so till the moment of tele
graphing. Twelve dead bodies and
many wounded still lie in the streets,
and nobody dares to remove any of
them on account of the firing. which
continues steadily.

Value of the Victory

Chicago, May 10.-A special to the
Times-Herald from Washington says:
The representatives Of the foreign gov

in the serious conflict between the
United States and Spain. They are
specially concerned at present in the
fate of the Philippines, and are discuss
ing the possibility of interference by
the powers. The concensus of opinion
seems to be that If the United States
concludes to retain possession Of the
conquered islands of the Pacific, the
European powers will have no cause to
