1865 deaths in the army. These reports
challenge contrast with the best English
experience in Egypt or in India and they
surpass even the excellent conditions
that exist in Cuba, where there is no fight
ing and the men are not exposed to the
elements but have comfortable garrisons.
Men drowned or who have died from in
jures received otherwise than in battle
are counted a total of 1864. This total is
interesting compared with that of the
men killed outright in action with the
Filipinos from Feb. to June covering
the active hostilities. In these four
months with an average of 1000 men en-
gagged the killed were 226 This great dis
parity reveals what development has re-
suited from the experience of the Santia-
go campaign. when 1900 died from dis
ease and only 26O were killed. In fact
the death in the Philippines has appar-
emily lost its novelty and no question hav-
ing been raised about it from this side of
the ocean, no recent cable report from
Gen. Otis contains any illusion to it,

Luna'S Death a GodSend

New York, June 16.-ln an interview at
Brussels with a Herald correspondent NJ.
Andre, the Belgian consul general at Ma
Mia, declared that Luna's death was a
Godsend; that he was the soul of the re-
belion and the most sanguinary man of
all Aguinaldo's army, and one who tor
tured Spanish prisoners and lived by in
surrection. Before M. Andre left Manila
for his present visit to Europe he OBJ
tanned from the Americans some con-
cesslon for Philippine insurgents in con-
s1deratlon of Luna's formal promise to
release Spanish prisoners. Luna after
ward refused to fulfill his promise, and
M. Andre, having described Luna's con-
duct as treacherous and felonious, the
latter sent hlm challenge to a duel, but
he disappeared without fighting. NJ.
Andre says the assassination of Luna re-
moves the principal obstacle to peace
which the Americans now have a great
chance OF speedily procuring, even by
simple persuasion.

Death Rate is Light.

New York, June 16.-The statement to
the effect that men around Manila are dy-
ing like flies and that the war departme mt
has been compelled to suppress the regu-
lation health reports which 1t has been
customary to make public are not
true but serve the good purpose of bring
ing out the fact that the health conditions
in the American army under Gen. Otis are
not only astonishingly excellent but have
probably been never equalled in any
army in tropical countries, says the
Washington correspondent Of the Tri-
bune. Compared with that last summer
in Cuba, the comparative immunity from
death or serious illness of the American
troops fighting outside of Manila seems
little short of miraculous. From the land
ing of Gen. Anderson's first military ex-
pedItion near Cavite on June 80 last year
up to the last weekly report from Gen.
Otis dated June 9Th there have beeen only

The Will Filed.

Oakland, Cal. June 16.-The Geographic
will of the late minister of the Neither
lands, de Fremayne, who died at Coolidge

his son, VIM. ]. de Fremayne. who petit
tions for letters of administration, he
being named in the will as executor. The

English Arbitration Scheme

New York, June 16.-The correspondent
of the Herald at The Hague gives the
following outline of the English arbitra-
ton proposal:
1t provides for the organization Of a
permanent tribunal of international ar
bitration, which shall be accessible at all
times and shall be governed by a code of
arbitration to be provided for by the
peace conference for that purpose.
A permanent central office shall be es-
tablished with a permanent secretary
and archivist and suitable staff to serve
as medium of communication for the
assembling of the tribunal.
Each signatory power is to appoint two
jurists or publicists Of high learning and
integrity to act as judges for the tribunal.
Any Of the signatory powers desiring to
have recourse to the tribunal for the
peaceful settlement Of differences shall
give notice of it's desire to the secretary
at the central office and afterwards elect
from the list of members of the tribunal
the number of arbiters stipulated for the
a. bitration agreement with permission to
adjoin to them any other person.
The litigants themselves will fix the date
for the assemblage of the tribunal.
This outline shows that the English pro-
posals are most lame, simply propound-
ing the principle Of arbitration and not
making it compulsory in any way. Ger
many would probably prefer the English
scheme but it is believed the conference,
no wishing to be trihing with useless
work, as already wired will agree upon a
compound of much more precise and SER
ious matter and binding the American
and Russian schemes.
