Recognition Of the Filipino Republic by
Germany Is Probable
WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-According to
a special dispatch to the Chicago Tri-
bune it is said Germany may aid
Aguinaldo. While the warlike atti-
tude of Aguinaldo excites alarm at the
war department., that isnot considered
the most serious feature of the situa-
ton. Those in position to know the
facts say the diplomatic situation is
even more grave. Either Germany or
Spain, or both. may recognize Aguin-
aldo's little republic for inte rested mo-
tives, Germany to secure foothold
and Spain to accomplish the release Of
its prisoners of war. This action is
imminent, and government officials
say they would not be surprised if it
took place soon. Prompt ratification
of the treaty would have avoided this
ENHANCEMENT, but it is conceded now
that both Spain and Germany have
some grounds for action to protect
their own interests. and it is seriously
feared they Will improve the oppor-
tunity to make trouble between the
United States and Aguinaldo.

slight falling off after the purchase OF
winter supplies. The S9s.2s5 Is found
to be credit after all the heaviest
bills for the year, such as fuel and
other winter supplies, have been paid,
and after few bills for January sup
plies have been taken out. This bal
ance has been created by the board in
the face OF the fact that the per capita
allowance of. the insane hospitals,
where much of the largest expense is
incurred, was cut So by the legislature
last winter. The January supplies
will probably be nearly as heavy as
those of December, but after that the
balance is likely to show steady in
crease through the next six months.
