The PhiIipDfne Policy

Chicago. Feb. 9.-A special to the Times
Herald from Washington says: From a
high official of the administration have
been learned some facts in connection
with the policy which President McKin-
ley intends to put in force in the Philip
pines which show his earnest intention
to establish in those islands a govern
ment of and by the natives which shall
be protected from foreign interference by
this country. This official said that had
Aguinaldo succeeded in forming a gov
eminent in Luzon that could have stood
the test of operation none would have
been more gratified than the president
Secretary Hay, near the close Of his term
as ambassador to Great Britain, consulted
with the foreign office respecting the gov
eminent of Indian states under British
dominion. As result of his inquiry 1t
has been determined to accept the rule
of the sultan of the Sulu archipelago
Thus self-government will be accorded to
a portion of the new colonial possessions
from the beginning, and self-government
viii likewise be accorded to other sections
of the territory which are capable of ex-
ercising it.
1t cannot be stated with definiteness
that any action looking to the notification
of the natives of the Philippines and sulu
archipelago of the change of sovereignty
will be made at present
Rear Admiral Dewey will distribute the
proclamation ilieh will be issued. but
such action may not be taken until there
has been a fun consideration of the en-
tire Philippine situation by the commits
sion, of which Rear Admiral Dewey and
General Otis arc members.

General Eagan to Retire.

New York. Feb. "a dispatch to the
Tribune from Washington says: Gen-
eral Eagan is to be placed on the re-
tired list of the army in few days On
his own application after 80 years serv-
ice, and Colonel John r. Weston, the
senior officer of the subsistence depart
ment is to be nominated by the senate
as commissary general of subsistence.
The arrangement for General Eagan's
retirement was made before the presi-
dent committed the sentence of dismiss
sal imposed upon him by the court mar
tial. BY his retirement General Eagan
will forfeit s1,375 from the annual pay to
which he would have been entitled For
the next six years under the sentence
of suspension. Colonel Weston will no.
reach the retiring age until Nov 49, 1909.
He entered the service as first lieutenant

1864, and entered the regular service as
second lieutenant in the 7th cavalry in

diately afterward appointed commissary

DIVORCE FOR WESTLAKE ]
For the Third Time the Minated
Pair Are Separated.
CRUELTY is THE GROUND
Mrs. Westlake Left Her First Husband
in England Without the Formally
of q Divorce-He Gets Half
of the Property.

Edward and Annie NJ. Westlake Were
divorced yesterday for the third time.
The trial of their case was concluded
and at late hour last night the jury re-
turned verdict in favor of the old
man, granting him a divorce on the
ground of cruelty, and decided that he
shall have half of all the property, con-
sisting of five lots and half dozen
houses in the Leggat & Foster addi-
ton, now Standing in her own name.
When Mrs. Westlake was on the Wit
ness stand yesterday some additional
evidence of rather startling nature
was brought out in regard to her ex-
tensive matrimonial experience. Many
years ago. in the early Cos. she was the
wife of q man named Barger in Eng
land. She left him and took up with
Westlake without LtiaS divorce
from her husband. ter year she
came to America with Nestlake and in
time they drifted to Butte, where she
got her first divorce I m him, though
they had never been married. Seven
days later she nlarrit him again. A
few years later she ct another divorce
up with Canadi1n-F, 'nchTan, but the
evidence on that was : >meWhat clouled
and 1T was not made '.ear whether she
was married to him y later got d.

she was married to N'estlaEe again
year or two after she Ed Teen divorced

yesterday when the ju1T decided that

In RAILROAD CIRCLES
J Theatrical Companies Must Pay
Regular Rates.
TT HAS CAUSED A HOWL
Will Tend to Further Demoralize The
atrical Business in the West-Rumor
That the Short Line Has
Broken Its Agreement.
TT HAS CAUSED A HOWL

II Notices have been issued by all West
efn railroads that special arrangements
with theatrical companies have been
\ Withdrawn and hereafter all roads will
charge the regular rates for transporta-
4 tion and the moving of baggage. This
i action, which is causing howl to go up
4 from theatrical managers from Pitts
burg to Frisco, was precipitated by the
conduct of the Chesapeake & Ohio rail-
road in going before the interstate com
merce commission and acknowledging
difference in rates. The Baltimore &
Ohio followed this move by publishing
a circular stating that they would make
complaint before the commission of any
IS violation of the law governing railroad
transportation. Other lines afterward
adopted the same position and the re-
suit is that theatrical companies are
now treated without favor. The effect
of it will be to increase the present de-
moraliZed condition of theatrical bust
ness in the West. For several months
there has not manager visited Butte
who did not complain of business
throughout the West, as a general
thing. 1t has been especially severe on
panies of the Prisoner of Spain,"
'Shantytown" and Dewey, the Hero of
Manila" variety. Only the best compa-
mics have any show, and it is claimed
that these very organizations will suf-
fer most from the new rule of the rail-
roads as a difference of half cent a
mile will be dearly felt by organizations
carrying SO or go people.
An explanation of the great secrecy
maintained by the Oregon Short Line
in the incorporation of the Utah. Ne
Vada & California was offered in rail-
way circles yesterday in the way of a
Well-defined rumor, which, of course,
ended in vigorous denials by officials of
the road, says the Salt Lake Herald.
1t was said that the Short Line has
broken an agreement entered into with
the Rio Grande Western, that neither
road should extend their southern lines
within certain length of time. That is,
that the Western would make no extern
sion from MarysVale and that the Short
should do no building south Of Mil
ford. AL n,e pr.e.-ytl sf,r,ss5
That there ever has been such a
compact is strenuously denied, but the
report certainly has color and this ex-
PLANTATION is altogether more satisfac-
tory than that one to the effect that
the Short Line does not want the South
ern Pacific to know of its actions.
4, 1t is admitted by those, of the new
road that there were REASONS for not
delaying Incorporation any longer, pre-

Notice to Architects and Property Owners

Notice to Architects and Property Owners.
AS it has been customary for archi-
tects and property owners to award the
painting of building to a building
contractor. on fair estimates which he
has received from reliable painting
contractors, and the building contrac-
tor having been granted the contract at
fair estimates, will, in most cases, sub
let the painting to the lowest possible
bidder In this way the building con-
tractor realizes an inactive profit also
creates the closest possible competition
which means the very lowest grade of
work. Therefore, we contend that
building contractor has no right to in
terfere with painting contracts and on
and after March Is, 1899, the members
of Painters and Decorators local union
No. % ono. 80 W. l.. ID will refuse to
