MINERALS or PHILIPPINES.


Admiral Dewey ReDorts m the Rseours Of
the Couatxy.
Admiral Dewey has forwarded to
the navy department a memoran-
dunn on the mineral resources of
the Philippines. prepared at the ad-
mirals request by Professor George
F. Becker Of the United States ge-
illogical survey. Professor Becker
made considerable researches and
consulted all the available author
tiles. Only about . score of the
several hundred islands, he says,
are known to contain deposits
Of valuable minerals. He includes
table showing the mineral-bearing
islands and their resources. This
table follows:
Luzon-Coal, gold, copper. lead
iron. sulphur, marble, kaolin.
Cataanduanes, Sibuan, Bobol and
Panoan-Gold only.
Marimduque-Lead and silver.
Mindoro-Coal, gold and copper.
Carraraybata Rapu, Semarara,
and Negros-Coal only.
Masbete-Coal and copper.
Romblon-Marble.
Samar-Coal and gold.
Panay-Coal, oil, gas, gold, cop
per, iron and perhaps mercury.
Biliriam-Sulphur only.
Layte-Coal, oil, and perhaps
mercury.
Cebu-Coal, oil, gas, gold, lead,
silver and iron.
Mindonao-Coal, gold, copper,
and platinum.
Snlu archipelago-Pearls.
OF the coal, Mr.. Becker says that
it is analogous to the japanese coal
and that of Washington. but not
to that of the Welsh or Pennsylva-
MIA coal.
1t might better be characterized
as highly carbonized Ignite likely
to contain such sulphur as iron
pyrites, rendering it apt to sponta-
neous combustion and injurious to
boiler plates. Nevertheless, he SAYS
when pyritese seams are avoided
and the Ignite is properly handled +,
it forms a valuable fuel. especially
fer local consumption.

He was 4 feeder, and his duties
watching the furnace required him
to 60 to the door occasionally and

WILL RETAIN ALL.
President lrGKinlsy Has Decided That
the Philippines Shall - Annexed.

President Mckinley ID convinced
there il NO way in which the United
States can escape the responsibility
Of taking all the Philippines. He
has arrived at that conclusion after
mature elaboration, and the ques-
ton Of controversy will be over a.
allowance to Spain for the islands.
This feature Of the case is now be-
ing carefully considered by the ad-
ministration at Washington and
by the American commissioners in
Paris.
When the American commission
ers left for Paris it was not con-
templated that they should demand
of the Spanish more than absolute
cession Of one island to the United
States and q reversionary interest
in the other islands of the group.
It has been found, however, that
there were many practical difficult
ties in the way Of such a solution,
not the least of them being the evil
dent impossibility of SPANS re-
establishing her authority over the
remaining islands without q pro-
longed and bloody struggle with the
Cuban forces. This information
coupled with the opinion of military
and naval commanders familiar
with the Philippine situation, led the
president to believe that Dewey's
destruction of the Spanish feet in
Manila bay and General Merritt's
capture of Manila annihilated Span
ish sovereignty in the islands and
it became the duty Of the United
States to establish better govern
ment than the one that was destroy
ed by the American army.
The president has been deluged
with letters from all parts of the
United States and resolutions from
commercial and religious bodies
urging that American sovereignty
should be maintained wherever
the flag has been planted. In this
same line, the presidents recent
western trip was revelation to
him and the members of the cabi-
ne: who accompanied him. The
further he went west the stronger
he found the sentiment in favor
of holding all the Philippines and
establishing American government
over there.
The Philippines are regarded as
standing on different basis from
Cuba and Puerto Rico, and some
members of the administration be-
lieve if the islands are taken Spain
should be given some measure of
for them, especially
as the Philippines have been by far
the most valuable of all her colonies.

One of the grandest acts of Miss
Gould's philanthropy has never
been noted in the newspapers.
When the men at Montauk Point
were mustered out or given fur
loughs most of them started dir
ectly for New York and many al
most Immediately fell victims to
the temptations of great city. A
few days later they usually found
themselves in some low lodging
house without dollar. Often they
were i'll or weak from exposure and
privations and suffered relapses be-
cause of their designations. When
this fact became known to Miss
Gould she hired the Salvation Army
headquarters. placed q sum Of
money in the hands of the person
in charge, bought $50 spring cots
and bedding, provided cooks, wait
ers and other necessaries for q hotel
and placed agents on all the trains
running into the city from Montauk
Point and the railway stations to
notify every soldier who arrived in
town that a good bed and whole.
some food were waiting for him at
l21 East Fifteenth street without
expense. Some of them remained
there week or more, seeing the
sights of the oity. Others were
taken there by the police, for, at
Miss Gould's request, the superin-
tendent of police issued an order
to the patrolmen to take al the
drunken soldiers and sailors they
picked up in the streets to "Fort
Gould" as they called it, instead
of to the police station. The Sal
walton Army people were in the
habit of taking care Of men in their
condition and knew how to treat
them. Those unfortunates who
had lost their money and were un-
able to reach their homes we're al
ways supplied with railway tickets
paid fof from Miss Gould's full
purss.
