ing Gilmore, are prisoners at irsur

Investigation. Dewey.
Iaasmuch rs there were II mem
bers Of the Yorktown party captured
b: the T!lipinos at Baler, and Adj
miral Dewey accounts for only ten CT
them. It is feared that the other five
have been killed. They were prob
ably killed or fatally wounded in the
original assault upon the landing
party at Baler.
The identity of the members Of
the party still unannounced for is
not known. A telegram was sent to
Admiral Dewey today asking him TO
give the department, if possible, the
names Of the men known to be i'll tho
hands Of the F'ilipinos. 1t is accept.
cd at the department that the reason
that he has not already furnished
these names, with the exception Of
that Of Lieut.. Gilmore, in his dis
patch OF yesterdays date, was be-
cause he did not have the informa-
ton. The insurgent headquarters,
where Admiral Dewey says the men
are held prisoners, is supposed to
be San Fernando, but there is no as
surance On that point.

Especial Dispatch to The Post.)
Washington, February Is AT tho re-
quest of the Texas Live Stock association,
Representative slayden called at the inte-
rior department to obtain If possible n
modification of the ruling OF the depart
ment upon the Indian Territory leases. The
assistant secretary In immediate charge Of
the matter said to Mr.. Slayden: "Under
section 20, act of June 2s, 1893, all leases Of
grazing land belonging to a tribe In the
Indian Territory, made prior to January l.,
terminate April /, 1880, after which time
leases can be made only with Individual
members OF the tribes who are restricted
to their proportlonate shares Of the tribal
lands. Individual members can not make
leases until they select their prospective
allotments."
In reply to Mr.. slayden's pressure for
modification of the ruling, the secretary
said; Under the law there can be no de-
parture from the department ruling that
Leases must be made as prescribed. f"
But he suggested that 1t should not be a
difficult matter TO arrange with individual
land owners for adjacent holdings.

Washington, February Ex-senator
James X. Jones. chairman of the dem
ocratic National committee, is not in ac-
cord with Mr.. Croker of New York and
Mr.. Wall Of Wisconsin regarding the para
mount issue in the next presidential cam
psign.
He said today: ITO say that the next
democratic Ma ional convention will reaf-
firm the position taken by the convention
in 1896 is to assert what every candid
man, even slightly familiar with existing
facts knows to be true. 1t is as certain as
ANYTHING human can be that the question
of bimetallism will be the leading Issue
in the campaign next year. And 1t IS rea-
sonable to expect that the majority OF
the people will next time declare for the
marty which means what it says and Will
redeem It's pledges, and that they VIII not
again be trlcked into casting their votes
in favor of the enemies of the pfihcipies
in which they believe"
"Ou what grounds do you base your
bopes for success next year," he was
asked.
.some of the reasons why ] am strongly
hopeful of the future OF our cause are
as follows In the campaign OF 1896 poth
parties declared for bimetallism the DEM
ocrats for independent acton by the
United States. the republicans for an in
ternational agreement, which they pledged
themselves to promote True, this dec
laration on the part of the republicans was
only made to catch votes, and because the
marty leaders did not dare to so TO the
polls without 1t. / think now no one any
I,nger doubts that the fixed purpose OF
thosa who controlled these leaders was to
maintain the gold standard, and TO pre-
vent not promote, an international aeree-
meut The declaration, however, served
it's purpose, and vast numbers OF sincere
himetallists were persuaded to vote the
republican ticket, in the belief that they
were voting for an honest effort TO secure
international bimetallism. The leaders VINO
were responsible for this trick have al
ready committed their party to the single
gold standard. so far as they can, and
if they dare speak out honestly in their
next National platform it will declare ior
the single gold standard"

We have been told from the time that
Aguinaldo's name first attained prom
inence in our news columns, that he
was "out for the dust" We we're first
told that he had sold out the former in
surrection for a tidy sum which had
gone into his pocket. Then the fact
cropped out that the money had been
placed In bank ia Hong Kong for the
Use Of the Filipino Junta when the time
should b. ripe for another iHsurrection,
and not silver dollar Of ithad been used
by Aguinalno for his private benefit.
still he has been held up for our dis
appreciation as mercenary adventure,

what there was in IT, Not few Of us
were deceived into thinking that the
easiest and cheapeet way - end the in

It.seems that the schurman peace
commission went over with that idea.
How we'll il worked Is seen above.
