FILIPINO CONGRESS.
Aguina1do Presides Over an Extra
ordinary Session.

MANILA, Sept. $3.50 p. ma Fill
ipino who has arrived from Tarlac says
an extraordinary session of the revo-
lutionary Congress took place at Tar
lac on August Oath. Aguinaldo presid
ed, and chose Mabini as President Of
the Supreme Court and GonZaga as
Attorney General They both represent
the most conservative and temperate
element.
Mabini, who recently resigned the
Foreign Secretaryship, is the ablest
man connected with the revolution.
Gonzaga was President of the last
Peace Commission.
The proceedings Of the Congress dis
proved the report that Aguinaldo had
declared himself dictator.
A decree has been issued by the
Filipinos compelling the registration of
all foreigners in Filipino territory. The
Chinese, who are a large fraction of
the population, are considered foreign
ers, including those born in the Philip
pine Islands. Application must be
made on stamped paper, which figures
largely in all the business of the in
surrectionary Government. This seems
to be largely a scheme to tax China
men.

MORE PEACEFUL ASPECT.

LONDON, Sept. s. - The Anglo
Transvaal situation wears to-day a
more peaceful aspect. The Associated
Press account of the decisions taken at
the Cabinet council are confirmed from
the best sources of information. In
addition to the troops from India a
brigade of four battalions of Infantry
is under orders to start for South Af-
rica Immediately, one from home and
three from Mediterranean stations. The
sailing of the Castle liner Harlech
Castle has been cancelled and the
steamer will probably be employed to
transport British troops.
A semi-official statement comes from
Pretoria through Cape Town to the eff
feet that the Transvaal Government
has explained to the British diplomatic
agent, Conyngham Greene, that it's last
dispatch was meant as an acceptance
of the proposed joint inquiry into the
franchise question. 1t appears that
the negotiations had become so in
volved that the Transvaal Govern
ment itself had become confused or,
perhaps, for it's own purpose, wished
to appear so.
The Cape Town correspondent of the
Daily Chronicle" says: 'It was the
Transvaal attitude regarding the SUI
zerainty question that caused the Afri-
kander leaders in Cape Colony and the
Orange Free State to cool off promptly.
The Transvaal has now resumed a
practical tone, and the AfrikanderS are
exerting a supreme effort to expedite
settlement"
The Daily Chronicle AYERS that
Lord Salisbury's moderating influence
was felt throughout the council. This
is exceedingly probable. but in any case
the Cabinet was unanimous in favor
of Mr.. Chamberlain sending a strong
dispatch demanding a categorical an
swer to the proposals Sir Alfred Miner
submitted to the Bloemfontein confer
ence
The Times thinks something more
than this might have been demanded,
but the Cabinets decision meets with
universal approval and pending devel-
opments nothing further Will be done"
JOINT INQUIRY ACCEPTED.
PRETORIA, Sept S.-jMidnight y
The Government has isused formal
announcement that its East dispatch
was intended as an acceptance of the
joint inquiry The mistaken interpre-
tation arose through confusion of
ideas. Both President Kruger and
Vice President Joubert declare that
they are determined to work for 81
peaceful settlement
THINKS THERE WILL BE NO
WAR.
LONDON, Sept. S.-Montague White,
the Consul General of the South Afri-
can Republic in London. said to q rep
resentative of the Associated Press this
evening:
II assure you on the authority of a
Cabinet Minister that there will be no
war with the Transvaal In fact, the
Queen will not permit war. I received
a telegram from Pretoria to-day as
suring me that the Transvaal Govern
ment quite understands the position
regarding the peace party in England,
and is in nowise misled by speeches or
demonstrations"

some thing in the matter Of equipping

The next two years are going to be

Foundation will be laid during that
period for q city which in a few years
will rank second to none in the state.
The voters, therefore, should exercise
8 than ordinary caution in selecting
city officers at the election next month.
An administration in which the people
could not repose full confidence would
retard the growth Of the city. None
iof us want to see this done; neither do
we wish to see the city go ahead too
fast. 1t is progressing rapidly now, but
the conditions justify the present
growth; if it progresses too rapidly.
though, there will be a collapse.
It needs a level headed man to guide
the destinies of Billings during the
next two years, supported by a council
which has the interests of the city at
heart and no Interior ends to serve.
