OPEN PORTS IN PHILIPPINES.


According to Secretary Root, 1t is the
policy of the administration to open all the
ports in the Philippines to the commerce
of the world soon as it can be safely
done with regard to the existing conditions
in the archipelago. Instructions to that
end have been sent to Gen. Otis at Manila,
and he has notified the department that
the various ports in the Islands will be
opened soon as they can be garrisoned.
The opening Of these ports will make
great change In the condition Of affairs in
the Philippines, through the release to the
markets of the world of vast quantities or
hemp and other valuable products that
have been accommodating during the past
two years of the insurrection.
One Of the main purposes Of the war De-
partment in sending large reinforcements
to Gen. Otis was to enable him to garrison
all important cities that came into his
possession and to insure the proper con-
duct of business affairs. Now that ne mas
practically destroyed the insurgent army
and scattered it into small bands In differ-
ent parts of the islands, 1t is believed that
he will soon be able to relieve a large por-
ton of his army from active field service
and utilize it in garrisoning the principal
seaports. There Is at present a great de-
mand for hemp in this country, and the
prospect of the early opening of the ports
of the Philippines Is very encouraging to
the American dealers in that staple pro-
duct.
