Pedigree of the Princes. of Taxi..

Ratisbon began yesterday q festival which will
last for whole week, and will draw crowds from
Upper Austria. for it is just hundred and
fifty years since the Princes OF Thurn and Taxs
transferred their residence from Frankfort-on the
Main to the banks Of the Danube. Not many
royal houses can show Purer prouder ped
igree than the Princes Of Taxis. They began
their rise in the world with the modest degree
of knighthood conferred Franz Won Taxs
about l5l6. for establishing the first post BE-
tween Berlin and Brussels. A few years later
they appear postmasters general for the Ger
man Empire and the Spanish Netherlands mo-
nopoly which they enjoyed until 1861. the very
year in which Prince Albert. the actual head of
the house. was born. For relinquishing the priv
ilege. the then holder received 3.0o000o thaers.
They are almost the only princes, not of the
blood. with whom the Austrian Impelal Arch
dukes and Archduchesses deign to mate.

The Minister Sees No Present PrOs-

Boston, June 6.-The Rev. DR.. Edward

gregational ministers in Pilgrim Hall yes
terday on the Peace Conference at The
Hague. The statesmen Of Europe. said DR..
Hale, have been making treaties looking
toward universal peace for twenty years.

The Hague. The great lawyers of the
world have been working this matter out.
DIR. Hale was sarcastic on the matter of
arbitration Russia. England and the
United States. he said. are very much in
accord with the plan proposed by the New
York bar to form a court and have it per-

TUESDAY. JUNE 6, 1899.
An ArgressiSe Campaign.

Once more we are told. in the language
of the old Civil War newspaper bulletins:
1.-The Government is about to adopt more
active measures for the suppression Of the
rebellion" We hear from the White
House and the War Department that Otis
is to conduct an aggressive campaign
against the Tagal mutineers in spite OF
the rainy season. II he cannot chase
Aguinaldo on foot or on horseback, he is 10
go after him in boats, on RATS. or swim.
This announced policy is a clear con-
cession to the public opinion that it would
not do 10 let the rebels think they had made
a drawn battle of the late campaign, and
that the fight must be kept up continuous
ly until they lay down their arms and sur
render Internationally. So far, the course
of the Administration is commendable. or
would be if it had practical basis. I'm
fortunately, it is difficult to see what ad-
vantage is to be gained by pursuing the
mutineers through swamps and jungles.
unless our general has troops enough TO
hold their lairs after capturing them. That
we know cannot be done with the small
force at Otis command, and which is now
to be reduced by the discharge of many
volunteers.
Unless il be the intention of President
Mckinley to organize an adequate army of
occupation. and send it to the relief of
our military authorities in the Philippines.
it looks very much as ii he were only
making bad matter worse in encouraging
Otis to accept all the hardships and risks
of climate involved in a rainy season cam
paign in the field; because. it is perfectly
certain that his command, unless amply
re-enforced in the interim, by the time
dry weather comes again, will find itself
weakened and decimated by sickness. and
not tenth as able to cope with the situa-
ton as it was between February and May,
when it failed for lack of sufficient num-
bers.
The War Department is said to have
plans of greater or less brilliancy which,
for the present, are strictly concealed.
What they may actually amount 10 is a
matter of mere conjecture. But there is
no doubt that the Administration sees the
necessity of action of some kind that will
allay the irritation of the American masses
over the mistakes both military and civil
that have been made in Luzon. 1t may.
therefore, be the intention of Mr.. McKin-
ley to call for the thirty-fve thousand vol
unteers provided for by act of Congress.
and unless he expects to let his officers and
troops in the Philippines wear themselves
out in fruitless fight against superior
force and nature, he will order out the
provisional army al once. since. with the
best efforts he and his subordinates can put
forth. autumn will come before they could
be ready to take the field with anything
like efficient organization and preparation.

favorably report them to the full body
What is still more satisfactory, it has ac-
cepted the mediation proposal of our dele
CATION. and that. it is thought, will be
adopted by the Conference.
Thus, the one practical result of the
whole affair promises to be acceptance of
the proposition submitted from America,
which provides for an arrangement after
the manner of the code of honor. Each in
tending belligerent may appoint disin-
terested second, and the seconds shall en-
deavor to bring about an accommodation to
avoid collision and bloodshed. Should
their friendly efforts be unavailing to pre-
vent war. they will still continue them
with a view to bringing about an end of
hostilities and an honorable settlement as
speedily as possible.
At the instance of Count Nigra, one of
the Italian delegates, the American scheme
has been modified, so that acceptance Of
mediation shall not interfere with mobili-
zation. fortifcation. or any warlike prepa-
ration, or, after the outbreak Of hostilities,
affect military or naval operations, until
after agreement by all parties to the ar
rangement.
Perhaps this is as near TO compulsory
arbitration as the world is likely to come
for some generations, at least, and it Will
constitute an important forward. step. As
an academic proposition it would be a
grand thing if permanent high court OF
arbitration could be constituted that would
be respected by all nations equally and
would be conceded authority to bring in
ternational law to condition of certainty
under a common code. But desirable as
that would be in this and some other re-
spects. there are serious and, for the pres
ent, probably fatal objections to any
scheme that would force unwilling pow
