Manila, Jan. 15-Official dispatches

Panay, indicate that the natives are
disposed to be friendly, although alb
solutely opposed to the landing of the
United States forces without orders
from Malolos, the seat Of the so-called
Filipino native government Some of

HE EXPOSED WEYlER.
The London Times Correspondent Made
Himself DisIiked.

Mexico City. Jan. 15.--Charles Akers,
correspondent Of the London Times in
Cuba, is here. He did perhaps more
work than any other correspondent to
expose the cruelty and incapacity of
General Weyler and made himself
heartily dislked by that official, but re-
manned in Cuba and kept the English
public informed of the true state. Of
things. He praises highly the conduct
of the American regiments during the
Cuban campaign. He says the Cubans
are in the main peaceable and there is
no danger of a conflict between them
over American authorities, provided the
latter show the necessary tact. The
Cuban generals have been busily en-
gagged in disbanding their forces and
are aiding in the work of reconstruction
in perfect good faith. He sees no rea-
son why the CubanS should not form a
government of their own, but of course
they would always be more or less un-
der the protection of the United States.
He denied that there was the slightest
truth in the pretended revelation from
Havana regarding the blowing up of
the Maine. Mr.. Akers says that by the
end of January there will be from $50
to 200 central sugar factories in opera
ton in Cuba. 1t is estimated that the
sugar crop should be from 900 to
500, 600, as preparations are already be-
ing made for planting increased areas
next June and July. Thus it will be
seen that the resources Of the island
are already entering again on a period
of peaceful development,

SilVER'S FRIENDS.
Advocates of the White Metal VIII Meet
i'll Louisville.

Louisville, KY, Jan. 15.-Judge James
P. Tarvin of Covington, and president
of the league of bimetallic clubs in the
Ohio valley, met a local committee of
the Young Mems Democratic club to-
day and made arrangements for the
convention which the league will hold
in Louisville next summer. This is the
first active work of preparation made
towards this gathering of advocates of
the white metal. Judge Tarvin stated
to the committee that he had certainly
secured as speakers for the occasion
William Jennings Bryan, George Fred
Williams of Massachusetts and the
Hon. Charles A. Towne of Minnesota;
also probably Ex-Governor Altgeld of
Illinois and Senator J. X. Jones of Ar
kansas, chairman of the national demo-
cratic committee. There will also be
number of prominent speakers from the
four states to be representative
lucky, Indiana, Illinois and Ohio. The
executive committee of the league will
hold session in Chicago during the
next 10 days. At that meeting further
matters pertaining to the Louisville
meeting will be definitely settled. Judge
Tarvin stated that he expects the con-
vention to bring fully 500 delegates to
Louisville.

AMERICAN ON GUARD.
The Customs Service to BE Made an OBJ
ject Lesson to the Cubans

Washington, Jan. 15.-Assistant Sec
retary of War Meiklejohn gave out to-
day synopsis of the report recently
made by the collector of customs at
Havana, Colonel Laskar H. Bliss. He
writes that the operations of the GUS
toms house at Havana are proceeding
very smoothly, considering all of the
conditions under which he has to work
On the day following his installation
number of employees vacated their
positions. Some of them We're Span
iards, returning to their own country
or We're employees who, under the Span
ish law, had become entitled to retir-
ing pension. Had this class remained
in their service their pensions would
have been jeopardized. Others left for
reasons best known to themselves.
Colonel Bliss is carefully readjust-
ing his force. placing Americans On
guard where general supervision of
the whole force is necessary. Colonel
Bliss says that in his opinion the Gus
toms service Of the island should be not
only an object lesson. but school of
instruction for the native. 1t can, he
says, be made an object lesson by hav-
ing no one except Americans in the
service. But it can be made a school
for instruction only by having the ma
tives for the great mass of employees,
with only enough Americans to see that
their work is faithfully and honestly
done.
Colonel Bliss announces that in ad-
d1tion to the weekly reports required
from such collectors by the executive
order of December 49, he proposes to
institute a system of daily reports,
showing all money received. He thinks
he can keep the war department daily
informed as to the revenues at a trine
expense. Colonel Bliss found on nand
when he took possession of the GUS
toms house at Havana only $780, re-
sulting from a special tax, which Was
laid upon loading and unloading vessels
under the Spanish rule. The first days
receipts amounted in cash to $1.522 81
The second day they rose to $3,32059.

THE TRADE DESTROYED,
England Will Profit at the Expense of
Germany and France.

London, Jan. 15-The Berlin correspon-
dent of the Times says: The Cologne
Gazette commenting upon the decision of
the United States supreme court regard
ing cotton velvet, says the rule will of
course be applied to all German manufac-
lures, so that it would be useless in the
future for a German manufacturer to
produce his goods in bond with view of
saving the duty on raw material. The ar
ticie concludes: ITO put it briefly. i'm
ports to America are Forbidden and the
export trade is destroyed, at least for
countries which, like Germany and
France, must pay considerable duties
upon the raw material they import
For country which, like England does
not impose a duty on raw material the
decision, in the opinion of the Cologne
Gazette, can not be regarded as bad news
inasmuch as extreme protection would
seem to have done free trade for once
good turn in the course of the internecine
war of protectionist countries.

Washington, Jan. 15.-The work Of

These will be held in the house of rep
resentatives and Immediately following
them both branches of congress viii

Swanson, formal notice having been
given that it would be called up on
Tuesday. An election case has the
highest privilege and if the notice is
carried out, the personnel bill will go

Wednesday has been set aside for the
committee on Interstate and foreign
commerce and an agreement to that
effect has been made. The most import
ant bill this committee has on hand
is that providing for a Pacific cable
running to Hawaii and Japan.
BY Thursday the postoffice appropria-
tion bill will be reported and ready
to take up in the house. and perhaps

THE PLACER MINE BILL.
No Letter in Protest Has Been Received
From Lord HerscheIl.

Victoria. B. c.. Jan. 15.-An Associated
Press representative was assured tonight
by the lieutenant governor and members
of the government that no letter has been
received by the British Columbia govern
ment from Lord Herschell, opposing the
bill to exclude aliens from the Atlin and
other placer mines. The interest in the
bill is increasing here. many merchants
thinking that the passage of the bill will
be a death blow to the outtitting trade
they expected to do. So far amendments
proposed make it seem likely that the
provisions of the bill will be made more
stringent. There is quite a strong feeling
that it should be made to apply to quartz
mining, a feeling, however, whch is not
shared by some of the members from the
RoSsland and SLOGAN districts

Nothing Done by the Legislatu ure n West
Virginia.

Charleston, ". Va, Jan t3.-The legis-
lature has been in session four days the
past week without doing anything. This

contest. and it will continue all this week.
The democrats hold their senatorial eau

the certificates of election the republicans
have a bare majority on joint ballot for

DR.. Newell Dwight Hills, formerly of
Chicago. deliver his first sermon in the
edifice. The gathering in it's different
phases brought forcibiy to mind the days
of Henry Ward Beecher. and Dr.. Hills
more ardent friends are delight I'd beyond
expression. When Or. Lyman Abbot, the
retiring pastor opened the services at
1890 o'clock every pew and gallery seat
was filled and the extra chairs in the
lower aisles were as eagerly taken. Peo-
pie stood five and six deep in the rear
aisles, and there was line of listeners
standing along the walls of the spacious
side aisles. 1t was probably the largest
attendance since the Beecher period DR.
Hills occupied seat to the right of DR.
Abbott, and the Rev. DIR. Henry NJ. Field
was at the latter's left. Dr. Hills was
listened to intently. He seemed perfectly
at ease and spoke SO distinctly that every
person in the church heard him. His
theme was Jesus Christ. the Supreme
