Washington, Oct. 3O.-There is only
one question before the COVE nment
now concerning the Philippines-that
is the putting down Of the insurrec-

president will not be inclined to give
much time to any other aspects of the
situation. This is, in effect, what Mr..
Kinley has told the members Of the
Philippine commission during his in
terviews with them. The president is
willing and even anxious that the COM

for himself he is concerned chiefly in
crushing the rebellion. When that is
done he will be ready TO consider sug-
gestions and policies for the govern
