WASHINGTON, June 5.-Gen. Corbin
was at the White house tonight, going
over the dispatches from Manila and
other places and considering matters in
connection with the campaign in Luzon.
There was nothing, however, from Gen.
Otis that the officials care to make pub
lie. Although aware several days ago OF
the prospective campaign for driving the
insurgents out of the peninsula of Mo-
rong, no detailed report of the move
ments of the troops has been receiped
by the war department. There was
long dispatch from Gen. Otis, but it dealt
mainly with routine matters, including
the examination of officers for promotion,
but filed to give any account of the latest

memory has Great Britain met with three
such military reverses in a single wscs.
and hence 1t is not surprising that notes of
anxiety should be heard amid the general
chorus Of press expressions of grim philos-
ophy and resignation.
Mr.. Asquith's speech at Newcastle last
evening fairly expresses Tie moderate av-
erage opinion of the situation. A more
radical view, which. however, has few open
followers. was echoed by Sir wilfrid Law
son In an address to the Liberals of Car
isle. He accused the government. after
bringing the country to the verge Of war
with America. Russia. Germany and
France. of having plunged it into war with
the South African republicans, of thorough
incompetent diplomacy. He thought the
people should insist on the government
stating its terms. so that everybody might
see what 1t was fighting for.
The Sunday papers mostly follow the lead
Of yesterday morning and afternoon jour-
nails in their comments on the situation. At
the Army and Navy and other clubs the
general impression prevails that the check
is only temporary.
The government view Is probably voiced
by Right Hon. Walter Long. president of
the Board OF Agriculture, who. speaking at
the shipbrokers' dinner in Liverpool last
evening. intimated that the Cabinet COM
mittee on national defense had considered
the advisability Of utilizing the militia and
volunteers for service abroad. He en-
phatically asserted that the government in
no way attempted to interfere with the
generals In their military operations. Some
say that another 100000 troops are wanted.

does not purpose to send them 1t will be

does arise the lvv.OOO will be forthcoming

LONDON. Dec. 16.-The public is just be-

THE COURSE OF EMPIRE.
Asquith, Home Secretary, Sees a Pos
sfble Turning Point.

LONDON, Dec. 16.-The Right Hon. H.
Fl. Asquith. addressing the Tyneside Lib
eral Association at Newcastle this even
ing, said: Nothing is more unjust than to
seek to undermine the confidence of the
country and the army in a gallant general
on the strength of a single error Of judg-
ment or a single reverse. Nor Is 1t time
when 1t becomes responsible persons to go
about whistling Of alliances or dazing the
world with exhibitions Of freaks of new
diplomacy. The situation confronting US,
after reading to-day's painful news. is so
serious that 1t is hardly possible to speak
or think of any other topic. We cannot
afford to spend time in unavailing re-
grets; sterner and more urgent duties are
laid upon US. We must not exaggerate
the reverses and disasters of to-day. They
may become the victories Of tomorrow.
'At the same time. let us not underesti-
mate the gravity of the task before us.
The war has developed proportions which
may make it the turning point in the for
tunes of the empire. 1t has become wider
and deeper than the question Of maintain
ing our position In South Africa. 1t is our
title to be known a world power that Is
now upon trial, and If we fail here the en-
pire ceases to be a world factor. Whether
the magnitude of the task We have under
taken ought not to have been seen sooner
is a question which will have to be an
swered hereafter. but now 1t is clear that
our force is inadequate. 1t is the univer-
sal opinion of all parties that whatever
accession is needed to give the army ire
sistible superiority, however great the sac
riices involved. the country will readily
sanction.
1.-The nation confidently expects the gov
ernment to do what Is necessary 1t is our
duty as a nation to be united and calm
and to concentrate all our resources, ma
terial and moral. upon a task which we
cannot lay down or leave incomplete with
out dealing a blow alike to the honor and
safety of our empire"
