The times., 1899-01-24

Owing to the noise made by the Filpinos
and the Cubans, we are apt TO forget that
We are in possession of territory called
Porto Rico and with fewer people. yet of
no mean Importance from its geographical
position. The Porto Ricans have displayed
a higher degree of intelligence, more
discriminating patriotism and finer sense
of gratitude than the inhabitants of the
other islands wrested from Spain. They
have realized that the benefits of American
institutions are vastly TO be preferred TO
the uncertainties of absolute independence
and they are so happy in their escape from
Spanish tyranny that they look upon the
Stars and Stripes with alteration. Their
highest ambition is 10 become qualified
for citizenship in the great Republic that
made them free. They have discarded
Spanish from their schools and taken up
English and there is not a house in the
island owned by a native but flies an
American flag.
4 fair idea of their spirit may be gained
from the mission OF their representatives
sent to Washington. They believed that
this Government would do as Spain has
revenue from customs and other sources.
They believed that they would be forced
TO support every American soldier kept in
the island. Therefore, thinking that their
revenues would be small and their ex-
penses enormous, they asked that the num-
Der of troops to be permanently billeted
on them should be as small as practicable.
Then they learned that all the collections
from customs and other sources would be
spent for public improvements in Porto
Rico and that the Government at Wash
ington would bear the expenses of all the
soldiers. They were almost frantic in
their gratitude. In spite of their mistake.
they had never thought of making any
complaint. To them. whatever the nation
that freed them does is right.
This is the spirit that should animate
the Cubans and Filipinos even more than
the Porto Ricans, for they have been freed
from more oppressive conditions-a free
dom they could never achieve for them
selves even though Spain could never
wholly master them.

A GIGANTIC ICE TRUST.
Incorporation Hill Introduced in the

by Mr.. Mauley. OF Augusta, authorizing
the incorporation of the American Ice
Company. with a capital stock of s6O. 600.

There are two ice companies. the knick
erbocker and the Consolidated Ice. now in
existence. which were organized under the
general corporation laws of Maine, with
a capital of SIC, 10000 each. The general
law does not permit the formation of stock
companies with capital above ten millions

State Legislature.
The capitalization at $50. goo 900 is the
largest ever introduced in the Maine Leg
islature. 1t is stated that the Offices of
the company will be located here. but
the business will be carried on elsewhere.
II is also said that this new company CON
templates the absorption of the Knicker-
booker and the Consolidated companies

of all artificial methods of ice making.
so that the whole business of supplying
ice to the large cities of the Atlantic sea-

FAREWELL TO HIS COLLEGE.
President Schurmnn Ready to As
sumo His Philippine Duties.

Ithaca, n. Y, Jan. 23.-Students and
professors assembled in the library lecture
hall today to listen to President Schur-
mans farewell address to Cornell. He left
here tonight TO assume the duties Of presi-
dent of the Philippine Commission. The
seating capacity of the big hall was en-
tirely insufficient to accommodate the
crowd. When President Schurman, Act
ing President Crane and Bishop Potter
took their places on the stage, every seat
was taken and the doors and entrances
filed. President Schurman said in part:

years, the greater part of which have been

heart to find that those in whose hands the vel

In monarchy the educated people will rule;

tions congratulating President Mckinley
on his wisdom in choosing for a position

for 1t as President Schurman.

A MUDDLE OF AUTHORITY.
How General Ludlow Came to Mis-
understand General Miles.

The report that General Ludlow. mill
tary governor of Havana, had decided to
send statement TO the Alger Relief Com
mission replying TO the remarks of General
Miles before the Commission about the
work of the engineer department was dis
cussed yesterday at the War Department.
1t is believed that General Ludlow had a
misConception of what General Miles said
regarding him.
General Miles stated that he had direct
ed General Ludlow to proceed to one Of the
Southern ports and procure the necessary
transportation for the debarkation OF the
troops at Santiago. He added that he sup
posed General Ludlow had done so
At army headquarters it was said this
afternoon that General Ludlow did not
want to go to Santiago, nor did General
Miles want General Ludlow to abandon
General Shafter 10 go on the expedition TO
Porto Rico. An officer whC was with Gen.
eral Miles at Tampa is authority for the
statement that General Miles wanted Cen
eral Ludlow to 90 to Cuba and take entire
charge of the engineering work of the eN-
petition.
II was with this purpose in view that
he ordered General Ludlow to accompany
General Shafter. II was intimated that
General Ludlow was not fully recognized
by General smarter ds III Chdr se vi the Gu
gineering work, but was given entirely
different work in command of brigade.
1t is said that this same condition ap-
piled to Colonel Wagner, of the Military
Information Bureau, who was not allowed
to land as a member of General Miles
staff or as representative of the Com
manding General of the Army, and was
told that he could not land in that capac-
ity He finally became an aide ON the staff
of General Lawton and in that way was
allowed to go to the front

The public might infer from the Presi-
dents appointment Of Colonial Advisory
Board that there is foundation for the ru-
NOR that Secretary Alger intends TO re-
sign his office, For this board is to act
under the direction of the Secretary of
War-will, in fact. constitute a new bu-
reau Of the War Department-to deter
mine questions in relation to the granting
of franchises and other things in Cuba
and Porto Rico. After his experiences
with Secretary Alger, beginning with his
navy was in perfect shape for hostilities
and ending with the necessity of a court
martial for the Commissary General,
it is hard TO believe the President
would consent to the control of
franchises and like matters by any
beard over which Secretary Alger
has absolute authority.
1t would not be easy for the President
to cite his authoritES for creating, with
out Congressional action, bureau of the
War Department. to consist of three mem
bers with salary of five thousand dollars
year each. 1t may have been in his
power to appoint commission to visit
the Philippines in order to report on con-
ditions there, but that is a very different
thing from organizing permanent bu-
reau i'll a department established by Con
gress. Mr.. Cleveland had to recede from
his position that the heads of departments
are merely clerks of the executive branch
OF the Government and not subject to any
orders from Congress. 1t is probable
that Congress. taking account of the
scandals that have resulted from the ad-
ministration Of Secretary Alger, will be
disposed to resent anything like an inter-
ference with its prerogatives in his in
terest.
The need of somebody to receive
and in a way consider the applications
for franchises in Cuba and Porto Rico is
apparent. II is also fact that these
matters are still under the supervision of
the War Department That makes il all
the more necessary that there should be
a change in the Office of Secretary of War,
since there is every reason to fear new
scandals in connection with transactions
that have a financial side

More Had Reef Testimony.

We have by no means reached the end
of the evidence against the meat supplied
to the army through the Commissary de-
partment. While the reports of the regi-
mental commanders in Porto Rico and the
testimony of DR.. DAILY stand unrefuted,
there are many officers and men with ex-
act knowledge Of the facts who have not
been called by the Alger Relief Commits
sion. That body never had the confidence
of the army the general public. There
was never a moment when il was sup
posed to be searching for the truth.
Therefore men who are in possession of
valuable information which they would
gladly offer to Congressional committee
have never thought it worth while to ap-
pear before Secretary Ayers whitewash-
ing board. Some Of them have talked
| about the defects and blunders in the War
Department conduct OF the war and ii is
apparent that General Miles charges
would be abundantly proved if sincere
effort were made
Among the officers who have been Undue
ed TO speak OF the meat by the attack on
General Miles, is Capt. Francis NJ Bean,
late OF Battery c, Pennsylvania Light Ar
tillery. who lives at Phoenixvile. The
