JUST PLAIN WAR.

Administration Now Recognizes Diplo-
macy With Filipinos Is of No Use.
NEW YORK, May 3I.-A special to
The Herald from Washington says:
The situation in the Philippine ISL
ands as described IN recent dispatches
is such as to make almost necessary to
raise at least part of the provisional
army authorized, by the last Of June. if
the United States expects to secure
complete control of the archipelago.
The administration has been brought
to realize that it is no longer war and
diplomacy in dealing with the insur.
gents, but plain war. Diplomacy and
the peace commission must take back
seats until the enemy has been com.
pletely whipped and forced to sur
render.
General Otis has not sufficient num-
Der Of men to accomplish this end. 1t
is believed he has so informed the war
department, but the officials will not
admit it. They do admit, however,
that the outlook for an early peace is
very gloomy, and that more troops are
badly needed in the Philippines.
Just how to meet this situation is a
question which confronts them and re-
quires prompt decision.
1t is expected that the president will
discuss all phases of the situation with
the cabinet Tuesday and reach an early
decision

Police.
Authoritative Statement of the
Boundary Question From
Washington.
Canadians Now Insist on Terri
tory Which They Have Never
Before Claimed.

CHICAGO, May 31.-Under directions
from the war department, Brigadier
General T. M. Anderson, commanding
the Department of the Lakes, has Or
dered Company E, Seventh United
States infantry, to Alaska. The COM
pany is stationed at Fort Sheridan.
Captain c. S. Farnsworth is in COM
mand. The soldiers are to do garrison
duty in place Of company of the Four
tenth infantry which has been with
drawn and sent to Manila. Company
E will leave for San Francisco at once,
from which place it will be transported
by water to Skaguay or Taya.
General Thomas M. Anderson is in
terested from military standpoint in
the settlement of the Alaska boundary
question. He is the American army
officer who about year ago went to
Alaska with force of soldiers and
drove out of the territory the Dominion
police that had rendezvoused there, it
was supposed, for the purpose of taking
possession of valuable lands belonging
to the United States.
The issues in the controversy were
the subject of discussion by the general
at his office in the Pullman building.
He drew emphatic conclusions of the
duties of the United States in the mat
ter. General Anderson, in describing
his work last year, said:
when 1 reached the disputed terri
tory with United States troops found
that the Dominion troops had taken
possession of Skaguay and established
a military Office there. Maps illustrat-
ing the boundary between Alaska and
the Yukon district, as fixed by the Do
minion government, had been circu-
lated broadcast. Ten days later full
company of uniformed Dominion police
came up to strengthen the advantage
already gained at Skaguay by taking
possession of Taiya, but in the mean
time 1 had established two garrisons in
Skaguay, two in Taiya and one in
Haines Mission, which is the beginning
of the Dawson trail.
"This gave me the advantage of pos
session, and when thekDominion police
finally appeared, notified the officer in
command that he would have to take
his men across the border Immediately;
that my directions were to rid Ameri-
can territory of Canadian police. Well,
the police retired and we have held the
ground ever since"

Joint High Commissions Failure to Agree
Due to Canada's Selfishness.
WASHINGTON, May 31.-Feeling has
made it necessary, at this stage IN the
exchanges between the United States
and Great Britain respecting the Cana
dian boundary commission, that the ex-
act status of the commissioners should
be known, that the people, not only of
the United States, but of Great Britain,
should have an opportunity to judge for
themselves of the comparative rectitude
of the actions of the United States and
Canada, respectively. The following
statement has been obtained from a
prominent person:
Canada continues to be land of
surprises. The friendly protocol of
Washington was signed on May 80,
1898, for the adjustment of all differ
ences between the United States and
Canada, in most amicable spirit. The
ink of that protocol was only we'll dry
when the province of Ontario discov-
cred chance to exhibit her idea of in
ternational equity. American lumber
men had been invited to take timber
leases in that province, with the priv
lege of cutting logs and exporting them
to the United States.
Strange Inconsistencies.
1.-THE provincial government, after
taking their leases and placing their
money in. the treasury, passed law
prohibiting the expectation Of logs,
with the result Of causing some bank
ruptcies in Michigan. During the ses-
sions of the commission the same pecu-
liar idea of international justice was
exhibited in another province, that of
British Columbia. This time it was the
mining interests that were involved.
The authorities Of that province took
the money of the American miners who
had made the discoveries of gold; al
lowed them to spend. thousands of dol
lars in constructing roadway to the
scene of their interests, and then pro-
ceeded to change their laws to contine
all such mining privileges to British
subjects and British corporations
Another such instance of this kind
of practice was worked out to American
nurserymen. They had taken con-
tracts to supply stocks to the Canadians
when, under the pretense Of fear of San
| Uose scale, the Canadian authorities
| prohibited any further importation Of
| nursery stock. At the same time the
Canadian courts held the Americans
| liable for violation Of the contracts
which their own laws had caused to be
| vacated.
1.-The Dominion government also
seems to share these peculiar principles

tested Indignantly against any conces-

tough task. A portion of the dispatch
