The German commander of the Irene
claims that his interference with the
Philippine rebels in Subig bay was for
humanitarian reasons. He says the rebels
have never been recognized by any power
as belligerents, and not by the United
I States as allies, and hence he did not
think they had recognized place to car
ry on military operations. Humanitarian.
ism is cutting great figure in this war.

There are 800 or 400 Eoases of5yellow
fever among our troops at Santiago, but
so far the disease has been of mild type
and there have been few deaths. Proba-
bly, good manys leases of SO called
malarial fever were really yellow fever.

resolution; and In the senate therefore
we ought to expect to find q disposition
to keep within the limits Of this dis
elaimer. But the chairman of the COM
mittee on foreign relations has thus early
taken occasion to announce that, SO fa1
as he is concerned at least, nothing shall
| get away which we get our hands on.
| The establishment of an independent
and stable government in Cuba after the
Spaniards are driven out will give our
statesmen about all the scope they need
for the exercise of their abilities. Our
purpose in going to war and our declara-
tion that we did not intend to annex
Cuba make it impossible on the one hand
to wash our hands of all responsibility
Tor the future Of the island after the Span
lards are driven out, and on the other to
settle the governmental problems which
may arise in what probably would be the
easiest and most effective method, name.
ly by making the island a dependency of
the United States and governing it our
selves. We have got to allow the people
of Cuba to elect the kind OF
government they want and to
establish it, but at tho same time
we shall be under obligation to see that it
is a government strong enough ana just
enough to preserve tranquility in the
island and protect the rights of all the
people. Anarchy under home rule will
be no better than anarchy with Spanish
sovereignty, and with no sort of consis-
tency can we tolerate the former while
going to war to put an end to it. Precise
ly how we shall exercise supervision over
the erection and maintenance of govern
ment in Cuba is a question for Statesmen
to settle; the fact that supervision will
have to be exercised in some way Is set
| tied by the conditions existing upon the
island. 1t may rightly be considered for
tunate that we have committed ourselves
in advance to no particular part of the
population, as we should if we had fol-
lowed the advice of those who wanted
the insurgent government recognized,
and have not received assistance enoug h
from the rebels to put us under any con-
siderable obligation to them, since it
leaves us unhampered and free to do that
which seems best under all the circum-
tances. Had we recognized the insurgent
government we should have made our
selves in a sense its agent and defender,
under obligation to maintain it perhaps
though we might feel that it did not rep
resent the wishes of a majority of the
Cuban people. But free and untramelled
though we shall be, constrained neither
by promises nor obligations, all the wis.,
dom and craftsmanship we can muster
will be needed to settle the problems
which Cuba will present, consistently
with our anti-bellum declarations.
