Power of Railroad Com missions to Make
Joint Rates to Ne Decided.
ST. PAUL, June 23--The state rail.
road commission will institute man
damus proceedings against the Mime
apolis and st. Louis road with q view
to enforcing the order directing the
road to make joint rate with the St..
Paul and Duluth of $1.95 on coal from
the head Of the lakes to New Ulm.
This action was decided upon at a con-
ference between Judge Mills of the
commission, Attorney General Douglas
and Thomas D. O'Brien at the state
capitol. The present rate is $3.50, but
the business interests of New Ulm peti.
toned that it be reduced, claiming it
was exorbitant.
The case will be test of the consti.
tutionality of the state railroad com.
mission law which authorizes the com.
mission to adjust rates that appear ex.
cessive.

THE HAGUE. June 23.-Many here do

Mr.. Hollis expressed himself as satisfied

with any degree of certainty what the

MANILA, June 23.-The insurgent

posed to be in the neighborhood of San
Francisco de Malabon. holding a posi-
ton more toward the lake or toward

General Wheaton has returned to

night make campaigning uncomfort-
able. The roads are still good but the
rice fields adjoining them are pools of

The Filipinos will not fight until they
can meet our troops III positions most
advantageous to themselves or take our
reconnoitering bodies in ambush. 1t is

tanned here. 1t was at first reported
that his condemnation by the Filipinos
was due to the friendship he displayed
towards Americans. but the informa.
ton just received shows the accusation
against him was not based on his peace
conferences at Manila, as supposed.
They confirm President Schurman's be-
lief in his sincerity. and show that his
advocacy Of autonomy among the in.
surgents was treated as treason. The
charge against the colonel was that in
conversation with Filipino officers, he
predicted that disorders within the in.
surgent territory would lead to civil
war, and therefore, he said, he consid.
cred autonomy under the Amer.
leans preferable to independence. The
Filipino congress tried him on the
charge Of treason. and heated debate
over autonomy followed. Finally the
colonel was sentenced to death, bu,
this was commuted to l2 years impris
Onment, on account of his previous
services to the cause, after an eloquen,
plea upon the part of his counsel.
Colonel Arguelles is one Of the mos,

thirty-four counties, with an area of nearly

anything to protect the inhabitants, and
they have become Indifferent to danger

quent intervals for the worship of the
dragon which is supposed to control the
waters. but no practical plan has ever been
attempted to make permanent banks. When
the time of the annual flood approaches
hundreds of thousands of refugees roam
over the province in search of temporary
shelter and beg from door to door until the
waters subside. Then they return to their
former homes and for the next nine or ten
months cultivate little patches of ground
wherever they elect, because the floods al
ways destroy landmarks and efface the
dividing lines of the farms, If there ever
were any.
Some years ago, by the advice of Gen.
Grant, Ii Hung Chang induced Gen. James
II. Wilson, of Delaware, now with the army
in Cuba, to make a survey and submit plans
and estimates for permanent banks and for
the dredging of the river to a depth suitable
for small navigation, but his conditions
were not approved by the government and
nothing was done.
General Wilson believes the river can be
permanently confined by the construction of
jetties at its mouth and dikes for the dis
lance of about sixty miles, so that the sur
rounding country could be entirely protected
and channel Of ten or twelve feet be fur
nished for commerce. He estimates the cost
al about 100000. Ii Hung Chang is now
engaged in making plans of a similar char
acter, and IL they are carried out the river
