KILLING OF NATIVES A
FEATURE OF EXPANSION

PRINCETON, N. J., Jan Sex
President Cleveland, in reply to the re-
quest of a representative of the Asso-
ciated Press for an expression on the
question of expansion, said:
1 do not care to repeat my views con-
corning the prevailing epidemic of impe-
rialism and territorial expansion. As
Stunning, however. that my ideas on the
subject are Anticipated and unsuited to
these progressive days it is a matter of
surprise to see that the refusal of cerain
natives of our new possessions to acqui-
esce in the beneficence of subjecting them
selves to our control and management
should in the least disturb our expansion
lists. This phase of the situation ought
not to have been unanticipated, nor the
incident naturally growing out of it over
looked. The remedy is obvious and sim
pie The misguided inhabitants of our
new territory who prefer something diff
ferent from the plan for their control
which we proposed or oppose our designs
in their behalf should be slaughtered. The
killing Of natives has been q feature Of

Senator Perkins Makes a Hit in His
Speech at Boston in Opposition
to EXPANSION

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Senator Per-
kins returned to-day from Boston, where
he addressed the Boston Merchants
Association Tuesday night in opposition
TO the permanent retention of the Philip
pines. He speaks enthusiastically of his
reception. His speech was well received
and made a great hit. Congressman Bou-
telle of Maine, who was also one of the
speakers of the occasion, pronounced
Senator Perkins arguments unanswer-
able. Notwithstanding the Senator's out
spoken personal opposition to expansion
he will vote for the ratification of the
peace treaty under instructions from the
California Legislature.
Senator White to-day secured the
passage of the bill granting the State Of
California per cent of the net proceeds
of cash sales of puohc lands in that
State.
BY direction of the Secretary of War
Captain David G. Shanks, Eighteenth
United States Infantry. will proceed to
New York City and join the Seventeenth

GENERAL MILLER TOLD
TO OCCUPY ILOILO

NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-A special to the
World from Washington says: Gen
eral Miller has received instructions to
land his expedition and occupy Iloilo."
This statement was made to the
World correspondent tonight on high
authority and was confirmed by two
Cabinet officers. 1t was not the inten-
ton of the President to begin the ex-
tension of military jurisdiction in the
Philippines until after the arrival of
the six regiments of regulars, prepara-
lions for the sending of which are now
being made, but the insurgents forced
the issue by occupying Iloilo. Secretary
Alger tonight, in answer to a question
as to whether or not instructions had
been sent to General Miller to effect
landing, said: The rebels can fight or
run"

ment that the Sultan of the Sulu Is
lands was negotiating at Singapore for
the annexation of his group to British
Borneo, which he said should be
watched.
All of the statements made by Gen
eral Merritt before the American Com
mission at Paris appear in the docu-
ment. In substance he said the insurg
ents would fight if the attempt was
made to surrender LuZon to Spain.
Spain could not preserve the islands I'M
aided. Asked whether the insurgents
were capable of government, he replied
that it would take time; they would
have to be educated up to it. Senator
Frye asked if the natives would enlist
under the American flag and if Agui
naldo could be given command He
replied in the affirmative to both QueS-
tions. Further, he said that Major
Bells report showed that the insurgents
had $500 stands of arms. AguinaldO
had $780, 900 in bank in HOngkong and
$4,000 in public funds in Bacoor. Ma
jor Bell expressed the opinion that if
the United States should govern the
islands for a year Aguinaldo would
have no army left.
General Greene's estimate is also pro-
duced. He said there were $4,000 Span
ish prisoners in the Philippines, includ-
ing 400 officers, with 1000 arms and
zZ,OOO,UUU ROUNDS OF ammunition. lie,
described Aguinaldo's character and
said much tact would be required in
dealing with him. In his opinion that
chieftain did not command the sup
port of a large body of Filipinos.
Then it must be remembered that the
insurgents were all Tagallos, only one
of thirty races in the Philippines. At
the time he spoke none of the two
million Visayas, people of equal abiIi-
ties, had taken any part. He was asked
what chance there would be for native
government, to which he replied: mo
native government can maintain itself
without the active support of a strong
foreign government. 1t is difficult to
see how any foreign government can
give this protection without taking such
an active part in the Management of
affairs as is practically equivalent to
it's own name"

FILIPlNOS THREATEN
AN OPEN RUPTURE

HONGKONG. Jan. 5.-Leading repre-
sentatives Of the Filipino Junta in
Hongkong, in the course of an inter-
view with the correspondent of the AS
ISOLATED Press, to-day declared that the
serious crisis in the Philippines is due
to what they designate as overt, un-
fair treatment of the Filipinos by the
United States. They said that despite
the known fact that the whole of the
Nlsayas group was in possession of the
Filipino forces, General Otis was or
dered to take possession of the entire
archipelago and dispatched troops and
Warships to the southern Visayas The
Filipinos, according to the junta repre-
sentatlVes, are determined to prevent
the landing OF the Americans at Iloilo
and may, as last resort, destroy the
city for strategical purposes.
Inc Junta insists that a rupture Of
the friendly relations now existing be-
tween the Filipino national govern
ment" and the American executive is
imminent, and that hostilities are prob
able, unless what they characterize as
the unreasonable, unfair and over
bearing policy of the Americans" is
modified. They say the FiIipinos would
deeply regret such rupture, but would
accept 1t as inevitable
In concluding the interview the
spokesman of the junta representa-
tives said: The Filipinos appeal to
the American people to uphold the
rights of mankind and to avoid blood
shed, assuring the Americans of our
desire to complete a friendly settlement
through an impartial committee of in
quiry. The Filipinos loyalty supported
the Americans against the common
enemy, and they now look to the
American nation to fulfill the PROMISES
made to Aguinaldo at Singapore before
he proceeded to assist Admiral Dewey
All the Filipinos ask is the truest and
best rights of mankind
