MIR. Frewen says there will be no
war between the Beers and the English.
Many people could not believe that
there was really any likelihood Of war
bet ween the United States and Spain,
but the fabric was strained beyond its
strength and it had to give way. In
this case the oppression bears down on
the pockets of the Englishman; it is a
commercial crisis primarily, but
that is often the most dangerous. I'm
der the present regime the men WI
own three fourths Of the land value
of the republic and contribute nine
tenshs of the entire revenue OF the
state are treated political
" almost exactly as are the
black savages of the junRles, 80 far as
participation in the government goes.
But the Beers do rot hesitate to charge
outrageous duties on every class of i'm
ported goods, notwithstanding the fact
that the South African republic itself
does not produce anywhere Gear en-
ough for it's own needs. One instance
of the excessive tax is the duty of one
hundred per cent on all printed mat
ter, with the exception of newspapers
and school books.-imposed for the ex-
press purpose of compelling the uit-
landers to use the Boer dialect of the
Dutch language. Magistrates are
fined if they make use of the English
language in court. Under the existing
naturalization laws of the republic for
eiguers can not obtain the rights
of citizenship until they have resided
in the republic fourteen years, and
then only after the msiority of ward
ers in the applicants ward shall have
signifed in writing their desire that
he be given the rights, and on condi-
ton that the higher powers shall see
no reason for not admitting him to full
burgher rights. Many governmental
practices in the Transvaal are without
parallel elsewhere, aud while the
Beers aver that they are necessary in
order to maintain their independence
and republican form of government,
the outrages have become so fragrant
that the commercial nations OF the
world demand their cessation, and they
will be stopped. if it takes war OF
Questionab BILE morality to do it..

their bayonets. knowing full well that
they would be shelled out by the Amer

The mutilation Of the enemy
dead is another evidence Of their boasted
civilization.
II our troops retire for strategical
purposes q glorious victory is heralded
all over the country, and according &c
the stories related by the natives, more
Americans are being killed every day
than have yet been landed on the is
lands. In the matter of exaggeration
of the enemy's loss, our troops are
very prone to fall into the same error.
In fact, to hear the men relating al
supper time the execution, they hsd
done during the day, one might be leo
70 believe the country was strewn
with dead Filipinos.
Yet, with the exception OF tbs two
big fights, the largest number OF killed
IN one day has been llS, most Of whom
were mown down by the Gatlings on
the river gunboat Lsguna de Ray near
Gan Pedro Macati. AS matter OF
fact. in nine cases out Of ten, when
brushes OCCUR, our men had no oppor-
tun,ty to hunt for the enemy's dead
ana the loss is purely matter Of con-
lecture.

Problem in Philippines
CONQUEST OF the ISLANDS PIE
sENTs MANY DIFFICULTIES
Topography il Admirably Adapted TO
the Peculiar Tactics Of the Natives

A correspondent sends the following
from Manila on March
If the entire rebel force could be cor
rallied in any one section Of the island
the work Of subduing it would be very
simple and soon accomplished without
doubt. But on the island OF Luzon
alone well-eQuipped army Of over H.
900 men has only succeeded in clearing
the country within radius OF hve
miles from Manila so far, and no one
knows with any degree Of certainty
what there is ahead. Ii is certain
however, that the further they pene-
trate into the wilds of the interior the
greater will be the disadvantage to the
white troops, since swamp and jungle
fighting is the strong point Of the ma
tiyes. 1t is also certain that what is
to be done must be accomplished before
the rainy season, because apart from
the consideration Of the health of the
troops, most Of the country is absolute
ly impossible from May to October.
UNCERTAINTIES TO BE FACED.
Among the uncertainties to be faced
is the force to be encountered. So far
as can be ascertained, the rebel army
which hemmed the Manilians within
the confines Of the city for so long con-
sisted of 30, 600 men, one.third Of
whom were armed Most of these
were, Of course, the Tagalos, who are
the mainstay of the rebellion. If, as
claimed, there are 300 900 of these yet
to meet under climatic and territorial
disadvantages, the problem which con-
fronted Kitchener was simple one
compared with which LawtOn had TO
face on his arrival
OF course, there are tribes, such as
the nocanos, whose hatred for the Tag
alos might render them. useful allies,
but the question arises as TO whether II
would be safe to trust them with
the arms necessary for the purpose.
The lesson taught by Aguinaldo is one
that is not likely to be soon forgotten
and there is great danger in such ex-
perience at this stage of the proceed
ings.
In this connection it must be borne
in mind that their education in the
art of warfare was received in the
Spanish schools, and the Spanish, like
themselves, always fought from cover
when possible The few brushes which
our troops have had with the enemy to
date have proved conclusively that the
latter will not stand flank attack, but
they are quick to learn, and once they
realize that boiling across the open is
suicidal under the circumstances they
will adopt the wiser conrse Of fighting

REBELS SUPPLIED WITH ARMS.
Another Of the uncertainties is the
humber OF arms which the rebels pos
sess. That they are being supplied at
frequent intervals from some unknown
source scarcely admits Of doubt, but
in what quantities cannot be conJect-
ured. Until few days ago there was
every indication that the rebels along
our whole front were using homemade
ammunition, but now smokeless pow
der is again being used, and. judging
from the enormous quantity Of ammuni-
ton expended every twenty-four hours.
their supply must be unlimited. AT
every vantage so far thousands Of
rounds Of Mauser cartridges have been
seized, but still there is no appreciable
difference in the amount expended
from day to day.
Those who know them say that
nothing short Of determination will
insure peace in the Philippines In
some respects, perhaps, this would be
good thing for the other millions who
inhabit the archipelago, inhuman
though the suggestion may seem. That
they are the sole instisators Of the re-
bellions there can be no doubt, and their
methods show that the instincts Of the
savare still predominate.

INFANT BAPTISM IN GENERAL SYNOD.
Probable Settlement of DOctrinal Prob
lem of Evangelical Lutheran Church.

York, Pa, May 22.-The most important
session of the General Synod II the Evan
gelical Luthern Church ever held IN the
United States will convene in tins city at
I:30 o'clock on Wednesday evening. Three
hundred delegates will be present, and the
session will be marked by unusual feat
ures. One OF these features viii be the
presence of an unprecedented number of
fraternal delegates
The general council Of the Lutheran
Church Of the United States, a split from
the General Synod, will be represented by
Rev. DR.. Speiss, Of the Broad Street
Church. Philadelphia. This VAL be the
first time that body has been represented
In the General Synod since its secession
in 1867. The United Synod Of the SOulh.
which was formed by a defecIOh from
the General Synod during the civil war,
will send fraternal delegates.
The other church bodies which viii be
represented by fraternal delegates are
the United Ncrwegi2n Synod, the PTesby
ter.an General Assembly, and the Re
formed General Synod. Infant baptism,
tCIic which has been under discussion the
past four years, viii probably cone before
the General Synod for final disposal ~

committee falls at this session, the synod
