The Herald acknowledges the receipt
of note from d. H. Wells, jr., in
which he explains his early dis
charge from battery A. Upon receipt
of my cable,' he writes, Governor
Wells wrote me, telling me that ne
despaired Of securing my release, but
that he had telegraphed for it. In the
meantime General Stewart L. Wood
ford had been importuned by Junius
F. Wells in my behalf and had wired
General Corbin. AS l cabled on Oct

me on the 9th day of the same month.
and as General Corbin told Woodford
afterwards that he had been pleased

men pursuant to his request, and as w.

REPORT ON THE CONQUEST.

When President Mckinley appointed
commission to investigate Ayers
conduct of the war. everybody said
that the members of that commission
knew what was expected of them. AL
gers mismanagemen was McKinley's
guilt So Alger was acquitted-white-
washed, as all the world declared.
When President Mckinley selected a
commission TO investigate his field Of
conquest it was generally understood
that the report would agree with the
presidents policy. 1t has been made
public and with one exception, il is an
argument in favor of continuing the
war of conquest or determination,
whichever it may be.
This exception is the recommendation
that government be constantly
kept before the Filipinos as a prom
ised goal. If the government adopts
this suggestion and the president acts
upon II we look to see the Tagals lay
down their arms.
President Jacob Gould Schurman
signs the report and endorses it in full.
In his private opinion. slavery and
polygamy can never be abolished in
The Philippines without a bloody and
protracted war Over his signature he
has said:
This republic, whose soul is self
government, does not want Asiatic
dependencies or the military despot-
ism they would entail. The proxim-
ity of Cuba made its misgovernment
ouf affair. But we are not called
Upon to rectify the tyrannies of At
RIGA OF Asia. Nor are we under any
obligation TO Aguinaldo and the in
surgents. Let US keep to our own
hemisphere, seeking only naval sta
tions in the Old World.
JACOB GOULD SCHURMAN.
We do not believe that President
Schurman has been influenced by pres
ideutial favor so much as by presi
dental example. Mr.. Mckinley has
been vacillating, void of purpose,
drifting and uncertain from the first.
ii his appointees are not made of
sterner stuff, no wonder. The profess
sor evidently knew what was wanted
by his official creator.

SHOT TO END
LIFE AND WOE

A family row between Frank Perry and
his wife at 107 Guerrero street last even
ing. in which Perry slapped his wife $
face and afterward attempted to take his
own life, was the cause of quite a com
motion in that part of the Mission.
The first information which led to trou-
BILE in the household of Perry came
through the summoning of a physician
to attend a man who was shot. Police
Officer c. J. Joseph, while patrolling his
beat on Market street, had heard of the
shooting and proceeded to investigate the
cause, accompanied by Officer II. l.. Fol

struck her in the face and then picked up
a pistol and fired at his heart.
William Van Valkenburg, the father-in-
law of Perry, claimed to be in the yard

while Mrs Van Valkenburg gave another
version of the affair, but stated that the
young couple had some trouble upstairs
when the shot was fired.

of the circumstances, directed Officers
Joseph and Folsom to go back to the
