FACTS ABOUT THE PHILIPPINES,

The Spanish official world deserves
none of the credit for any phase of
progress in the Philippines. 1t is the
Chinese, numbering half-milliop, who
have gone far into the interior with
their wares, cultivating a love Of
barter and trade among the natives. It
is the Enelishman, the American, and.
most of all, the German, who have
organized the great business enter
prises that have given Manila a respec-
table position among the larger Eastern
cities. Some Spaniards in private life
have also made large fortunes in busi-
ness, as, for instance, two brothers of
General Weyler, who in a few years
SHOWED that successful prosecution of
the tobacco trade is as profitable as a
gold mine. AS rule, however, it has
been the function of the Spaniard to be
simply part of the governing machine
organized for revenue purposes, collect
ing the head tax, the house tax, the
import and export taxes, and all the
imports with great assiduity, repressing
every foreign enterprise so long as it
was possible to keep every rivuIet of
trade flowing to Spain alone, and open
ing, one after another, six ports TO
foreign commerce only when the pres
sure became irresistible.
In one sense Spain seemed to have
lost The Philippines before Aguinaldo
and the other insurgent chiefs raised
their revolt and long before Dewey's
feet thundered in Manila Bay. Her
grip upon every legitimate industry
and enterprise in the islands had prac--
ticalIy passed into the hands of fore
igners. She remained the toll-taker,
and that alone.
There IS large body of the better
class natives, many of them mixed
bloods, not few of them with strain
of Spanish in their veins, educated
largely through the religious agencies
of Spain, who revolted again, three
years ago, against all things Spanish.
They are found in Luzon, in Panay and
in some other islands, and they are the
insurgents of to-day.
In word, it may be said that the
vast resources of the Philippines have
been tapped only along the very sea
edge. Commercially and industrially,
the interior of all the islands is as yet
sealed book except to the peddling
Chinese with his pretty trade. There
is reason to believe that few parts of
the world are richer in gold, copper,
iron, lead and sulphur than the Phil
ippines; but they are not attainable in
the roadless interior. Large enter
prises like the Philippines Mining Syn
dicate are operating on the coasts and
will push inland when the way can be
opened.

General Breckfnridge's CompIa. n
Against the Surgeons.

Cincinnati, September 81 - The
Times Star special from Lexington.
KY, says: General Breckenridge,
who is in command OF Camp Hamilton
here, and Surgeon General Sternberg
had a long conference just before the
surgeon general left here with Secre-
tary Alger General Breckenridge
wanted to know just who had the right
to command the hospital surgeons. He
said at Chickamauga these individuals
were a sort OF 'do-as- you please" fel-
lows, under nobody's command. Gen
eral Wilson had requested certain
things TO be done In the hospitals at
Chickamauga, and no attention had
been given his demands. Investiga-
ton, General Breckenridge said show
ed that the surgeons considered them
selves subject only to the orders OF
General Sternberg. General Breckin-
ridge said he found the same trouble
at Camp Hamilton and he wanted to
have distinct understanding regard
ing the matter. General Sternberg
said that the surgeons at Chickamauga
were subject to the orders OF General
Wilson and that the general should
have found this out. II he saw his or
ders were not obeyed. he should have
found the reason for such disobediencc
and had the matter settled at once
General Breckinridge said the same
was the case right here. and he wanted
General Sternberg to inform General
Sanger that he was the proper person
to command the surgeons.

The talking was begun here by Cen
eral Sanger against the medical de-
partment, and by General Waites
against the quartermaster's, and it is
expected that officers at other points
will add very materially to this testi-
mony before the tour of inspection is
completed. Secretary Alger stated that
all Of this information and all other
evidences that he could secure would
be presented to the inVeStiga ting COM
mission at Washington.
At the conference here last evening
Of Secretary Alger with General Breck-
inridge, the commander of Camp Ham

said while the division hospital may
be a good thing, that as it was con-
Quoted it had been a disgrace to the
service; that it had deprived the regi-
ments of their surgeons and caused
hardShipS on the sick who should have
had better attention at the proper time.
Surgeon General Sternberg in reply in
sisted that all acquisitions had been
hOnOred in Washington and that any
medical men failing to do their duty
should be reported.
General Waites told Secretary Alger
that the neglect of some quartermas-

Metcalf, died recently in San Francisco
of typhoid pneumonia contracted while
at camp Merritt, as member Of Unit
ed States regulars, will take steps to
have charges preferred against General
Otis, now with the American forces
in the Philippines. Mr.. Metcalf said
today:
Il am a member of an organization
of people all over the country who have
lost relatives or friends who have en-
listed in the regular army for service
in the Philippines. These died through
exposure on that pestilential spot
known as Camp Merritt. Each mem
ber of this organization will bring

one, and | believe it will be able to ac-
complish the object for which it was
formed.

EX-Judge Mackay Arrested for Blgamy

Philadelphia, September 21.-Thomas
]. Mackay, who is said to be an ex-
judge of the circuit court of South
Carolina was arrested in this city to-
day on the charge of bigamy. Accord
ing to Mackay'S story, he is the victim
of persecution. He has nearly reached
the four score mark, but the woman
whom he claims to be his legal wife
is but 25 years of age. Her name was
Bertha POrterfield, and until her mar
riage to the judge she lived with her
parents, who are said to be prominent
people at Charleston, w. Va. They
We're married about a month ago at the
girls home and from there went to
New York. While in that city, she
claims to have learned that her hus-
band had another wife. He is said to
have explained that he was married
in 1881, but several months later his
wife told him that she had another
husband and the judge left her. He
did not see her again. he is said 20
have declared, until his visit 10 New
York, and there, upon learning of his
second marriage. she threatened him
with arrest. For a time he pacified
the fears of wife No.2 by declaring that
he would have the first marriage an
nuiled, as it had never been legal. But
the status of affairs soon reached the
ears of the girls parents, and a war
rant was at once issued for Mackay's
arrest. He was arraigned before Mag
istrate Jermon late in the afternoon
The hearing was postponed pending g
further investigation by the police.

HAWAIIANS DIVIDED
Some Advocate Restoration of Queen
LfIuOkaloni-Others Want Territor.
faI Government.

San Francisco, September 21-The
from Australian points via Honolulu.
AdVices from the latter place under
date Of September 14th say that the
congressional commissioners are fin
ishing their work and expect to leave
for Washington on September 23rd
The commissioners are now being del
uged with petitions and memorials
from the native Hawaiians. The senti-
ment Of the natives appears to be di-
Vlded. One faction desires the restor-
alton of the queen While the other ac-
cepts the new order of affairs and asks
for certain rights under the new form
of government.
The natives who favor restoration
held mass meeting on September Eth
and adopted a memorial which was
presented to the commissioners. The
memorial alleges that the annexation
treaty has failed and the Joint resolu-
ton is ineffective because it was not
passed by the people Of the Hawaiian
islands or the representatives in the
Legislature. The memorial concludes bv
asking that the constitutional govern
ment Of January 16, 1896, be restored
under the protection of the United
States of America.
Among the speakers at the mass
meeting was Robert w Wilcox. Nhe
revolutiOnist who a few weeks ago
took the oath Of allegiance in order to
qualify for a full pardon for past mis-
deeds. Pointing to the United States
flag over the government building he
said: 1t is useless to say that the flag
over there will not come down again
1t was up before and it came down II
Will be shown that the annexation
vote was carried through by a handful
of foreigners. If America loves us
why were not Hawaiians placed on the
commission? We are not represented
there. The next thing we shall not be
able to vote
The other faction of Hawaiians also
present memorial to the commission
This memorial asks for a territorial
form of government with full rights
for the natives and permission to make
appropriations for ex-Queen Liliuoka-
lani, Princess kaiulani and Queen
Dowager Kapiolani.

kenly. y. c.. September 21.-This
was red letter day for democrats in
Johnston county. The citizens OF
Kenly and vicinity gave a big barbe-
cue picnic and the political issues OF the
day were discussed by Hon E. W. Pou,
candidate for solicitor in this district
and Judge H. G. Connor, of Will
son county.
By early morning the people from
Nash. Wilson, Wayne and Johnston
counties began coming in until we had
an audience composed Of about 1,500
white men and 500 ladies.
1t is useless to say that both
speeches were powerful in argument
and sweeping in effect. Mr.. Pou paid
his respects to the present administra-
tion and made good his assertion that
cit is impossible to fuse truth and
falsehood." Judge Connor appealed
to the patriotism of his hearers with
telling effect. There were several pop
ulists and republicans present who will
long remember this day and who will
date their return to the white mans
party from today.
