TEXT OF TREATY
CABLEO TO OTIS,
Ne is Advised of Ratification OF
Treaty of Peace.
MILLER IS TO TAKE ILOlLO

Washington, Feb. 1T is au-
thenticelly stated by the war de-
partment that the president noti-
fed Otis and Dewey of the action
of congress on the peace treaty,
but no suggestions were made for
the future actions of these men.
General Otis acknowledges receipt
of the announcement, but that he
was ignorant of the provisions of
the treaty. The war department
throught it best that he know, so
shortly ter noon today, operators
commenced sending the full text
of the treaty.
The authorities believe here that
immediately upon receipt of this
General Otis will direct Miller to
take control of Iloilo, peacefully
if he can, and if not, by force.
dewey will, at the same time, send
one or more ships to the Sulu
islands and compel the Sulu czar
to recognize the supremacy of the
American flag.
The Americans are taking adj
vantage of the advances they made
Sunday and yesterday. The wa
terworks, four miles north of the
city, were taken last night after a
sharp engagement. The lst Ne
braska. which was in advance
found the place deserted, but the
natives had taken with them por-
tions of the pumping machinery
These were found after n brief
search a short distance from the
works, and the task of restoring
them will be short one. The
Nebraskans had a lively brush
with the enemy on their way to
the water works. in which two
men were killed and three men
wounded.

Are Becoming Civilized.
Price 8 Cents

Major Theodore Sternberg of
Ellsworth, who is paymaster in the
army in the Philippines, has this
to say in prophecy of an evolution
which may be expected to take
place among the Manila fair sex:
Il saw a native woman, whose
scanty skirt barely came to the
knee, wearing garters; no stockings,
no shoes only garters. Now, that
woman was on the road to civilized
dress. She will have to wear stock
ings, in order to dress up to those
garters; and then shoes will have
to come to protect the stockings,
and there you are. ] notice that
American skirts and shirt waists
are worn more and more. kansas

such sum. During the past

Cubans Ask for Policy.

Havana, Feb. 6. Prominent
Americans who are studying the
Cnban question express the belief
that if the United States govern
ment would define its Cuban pol
icy it would do much to ameliorate
the feelings of unrest and fear and
TIE lack of confidence which prevail
among all elements.
From the Cuban standpoint the
actions of the United States are full
of mystery and evil portent If
tue governments policy were more
definitely defined, Cuba would
know who is to pay the American
army of occupation. and statements
to the effect that these moneys are
being collected as Cuban customs
would not evoke troublesome SEN
timents.
