Secretary Long made a public
signed statement, dealing with u
rumor that he had made a state
mert to the cabinet deploring the
killing Of Fihpinos without provo
cation and the footing OF private
houses in pacified communities,
knowledge OF which was claimed
to have acquired from letters from
sailors, that was as extraordinary
for what it didn't say as was his
open invitation to Schlcy, day or
two before, to ask for q packed
court OF inquiry, in an authorized
interview. Although he knows
that he is credited with lack OF
sympathy with the Philippine pol.
ICY of the administration. he did
not say "a word in the statement,
written for a paper he know to be
friendly to him, personally as well
as politically. lilo didn't even
deny that he had protested, at a
Cabinet meeting. against the
Philippine policy, but merely said
that he had never received any
letters from sailors, either about
lootlng or about firing on peacable
natives IN the Philippines. If he
didn't say more, he would better
not have said anything. The
country is already surfeited with
statements that do not tell all the
truth and denials that do not
deny.

One of the (irst acts OF Mr.. Me-
Kinley after his return TO Wash
ington was to order the prosecution
OF Admiral SchleY, by the Samp-
son clique in the Navy Depart
meut, stopped. He did not do 80
because Of any love he had for
Schley. but because of statements
publicly made by Maryland re-
publicans that they intended to
hold the administration responsible
for the Navy Departments treat
ment OF Schley. That frigh.ene /
Mr. Mckinley, who is by no means
as confident of his re election as
some other repu blicans profess to
be. And, in addition to ord eriug
a let up on Schley, NJ. Mckinley
sent for exPostmaster General
Gary and asked him to help keep
Maryland in line. Unless Mary.

in their judgement. nothing will
prevent Maryland returning to its

Nothing could moro surely prove
the deception practiced by the ad
mlnistratiOn concerning the situa-
ton in tho Philippines than the
orders issued this week TO all the
regular recruiting officers to en-
list as many volunteers as may
present Themselves for service in
the Philippines, and the official
announcement that Gen. Otis is to
have an army Of 10000 men by
the end OF the rainy season. In
order to keep the appointment of
all the officers in the hands Of the
administration, no organizations
are to be enlisted. Tho men are
to enlist as individuals and the
regiments TO DO formed will be q
5. Volunteers. Although the an
nOuncement was made at the same
time that all the officers for these
regiments would DO chosen from
the volunteers who have seen SER
vice in the Philippines, il is q safe
bet that they will not be. Ex-
Congressman Campbell, Of H.,
who 10 now in Washington, tells
his friends that he has been prom
lsed the colonolcy Of one Tegi-
ment, and hasn't seen any service

In his anxiety to remain in the
Cabinet, Notwithstanding his deal
with Gov. Pingree, who everybody
knows is not an admirer either of
Mr.. Mckinley or Of his admins
tration, Secretary Alger is getting
foxey. In order to jolly Mr.. Nc
Kinley, he publicly said that his
deal with Pingree was solely for the
purpose Of obtaining the Senator
ship and was not binding on
either for any other purpose, that
he was Mckinley man from
start to finish and was prepared to
prove it at any time that it might
become necessary, by breaking
with PiDgree, if he should show
any disposition to antagonize Mr..
Mckinley in Michigan. How
much OF this Mr.. Mckinley swal-
lows nobody knows, but it is
certain that Alger has undertaken
q difficult role. 1t is known that
Senators Mcmillan and Burrows
are hard fighters aud that they
will demand that Alger be put out
of the Cabinet, and their demand
will be backed by many republi.
cans whom Mr.. Mckinley will not
care to offend. Besides, it is be-

Alger to try to get even with SEN

Cnlnrs In Lake Water.

The lake Of Geneva, at the western
end Of Switzerland, is blue, while OF
the lake Of Constance, at the eastern
end of Switzerland, is green. Blueness
Implies purity, since the natural color
of water is blue. A green lake has Its
water slightly clouded with impurities,
which may be exceedingly fine parti-
cles, separately invisible. Prof. Spring
Of the university of Liege says gree
lakes sometimes become absolutely
colorless for time, and he has found
