this is part has had the heavy work
lars in the Philippines, but at least Ave-
sixths of the force is made up of volun-
teers. In fact, the troops operating at
the north of Manila, by the govern
ment's showing and by the evidence of
recent history, have done the great bulk
of all of the seasons Philippine fight
ing. To the extent of more than two
thirds of its total membership this
army operating to the north of Manila
is composed of volunteers. In the south
ern commands which, in comparison,
have had next to nothing to do, this
proportion is reversed-these troops are
largely regulars.
AS to fatalities-the Standard is not
in possession of exact data. 1t is enough
for present purposes, however, to take
the testimony of a dispatch recently
sent out from Washington which an
nounces that there, have been about two
thousand deaths among the members of
the American force in the Philippines,
this total including men killed in ac-
ton and those who have died of wounds
or disease: and the statement Is that,
aside from this death roll, the records
show a distressing total of fifteen hun
dred men wounded on the battlefield
More than that, the confession is that
in these figures seventy-five per cent
are volunteers.
These figures may not strike the

A Match for Alger.

n things are looking just now,
Senator Mcmillan will prove 10
be a sharper thorn in Secretary
Algers side than General Miles was.
Newspaper mention was made of the
fact, about a fortnight ago, that Alger
laid the foundation for a federal sena-
torship for himself by announcing that
Senator Mcmillan had promised to get
out of his way at the right time.
Mcmillan promptly denied this. Alger
came back with the assertion that Nc
MILAN had frequently told him that he,
Mcmillan, had no desire to retain the
senatorship if the secretary wantsd the
seat. To this the reply of Mcmillan IS
that he never said what Alger says he
said, and, more than that, he adds that
it has not at any time occurred to him
to shape his plans to suit the pleasure
of the secretary.
1t is square issue between the sec
rotary and the senator; we wager that
by large majority, the American pub
lie believes that, of the two disputants
the senator is the man who is telling
the truth. Here is an instance where
Alger can't appoint a commission OF
order a court-martial for a man who
happens to stand in his way.

fully fifteen senators who voted against

In this interview Mr.. Mantle dis
cusses the theory that the senate Is
"a continuous body" That character
ization of the senate. he says, is a fic-
ton. THE decisions of the supreme
court" Mr. Mantle adds, ARE relied
upon as precedents, because the court
really is continuous body. But it is
quite different with the membership
of the senate. I can seen no. reason,

and the United States. In part these
matters relate to trade relations on
either side of the line that separates
the two countries; in part they relate
to serious questions about boundary
lines. 1t ought to be practicable to
settle all contentious involving the two
countries without loss of temper or of
credit and without undue advantage
for either side. Very important inter-
ests are at stake. and it is to be hoped,
on every account. that the commission
will go at it again and find a way to
reach satisfactory conclusions.

Not On the Fourth.

II S if it were not an event wholly
out of the question, some of the
! newspapers are still picturing
what will happen if Admiral Dewey
arrives in this country in time to be
the attraction in some city's Fourth of
July celebration.
If the programme already announced
is carried out, Dewey will be on the
high seas on Independence day, he will
celebrate that anniversary on board the
flagship Olympia. He is due to leave
Manila harbor to-day, expecting to be
detained several days at Hong Kong,
where the Olympia, which has not been
locked since August in 1898. will be
overhauled and put in good sailing con-
dition 1t is figured out that the run
from Manila to New York will cover
1886 nautical miles. Three stops for
coal will be necessary. Reckonings
made in the navy department at Wash
ington show that these halts, at Co.
Jumbo, Alden and Gibraltar, involve a
loss of nine days, and that all told, the
Olympia, if in good sailing form, will
need sixty days for the cruise. So that.
If all We're to go well, Admiral Dewey
may sight New York soon after the
middle of July or, more probably,
nearer to the first of August
Then, too, it is highly improbable
that Admiral Dewey will consent to
be the central figure in many popular
demonstrations. Last week publicity
was given to several kilograms in
which he declined the offer of formal
receptions extended to him in the name
of important American cities, and the
plea was that his health forbade an
acceptance. We may believe the re-
ports that tell of the admiraPs i'll
health. Otherwise, there would be no
accounting for his return home at this
juncture in Philippine affairs. He is a
member of the commission named to
make peace with Aguinaldo, and he
leaves on the eve of the serious nego-
tiations. He is the central figure in
the Philippine campaigning, and he
starts homeward at what appears to
be the eleventh hour in the fighting.
Doubtless his arduous service has left
Admiral Dewey in a physical condition
that really forbids the hurrah and the
fatigue of the rousing receptions with
which the American people would like
to welcome him home.

1t Won't Work.

+ YNDER the instructions which, it
J is said. We're given to this coun-
try's commissioners to the peace
congress at The Hague. the American
position is to be one of friendly atti-
tude toward the proposed permanent
peace commission, the reservation on
our part being that the submission
of disputes to this tribunal shall be
the voluntary act of the contending
parties-that is to say, the contes-
tants in any given case can fight or
arbitrate, as they all elect. That is
an arrangement which shows, from
one more standpoint, that the proposed
permanent commits ion is not practical
that indeed il really is impractcable
and that, for all H good that is likely
to follow, our prnsentatives, under
their instructions, might as well have
remained at home.
The advocates of the permanent
peace tribunal have made the point
that failures in several recent attempts
to arbitrate international differences
are due to the fact that the right sort
of tribunal was lacking. They have
pointed out the fact that these meet
ings have been like conference Of
wrangliag attorneys rather than the
submitting of rival sides to the arbitra-
ment of a recognized tribunal. But
what of the view we propose to ad-
vocate at The Hague? What of a
court or tribunal that cannot command
the attendance of a defendant when
the plaintiff has asked hearing?
The upshot of this awkward arrange
ment would be that the weak nation
that is party to a quarrel will want
to submit the case to this proposed
permanent tribunal; the strong power
will always insist on fighting it out.
The plan under which the Washington
correspondents say our commissioners
are to participate in the cars con-
gress has working parts that won't
work well.

Not Pleasant Reading.

.@ REF as it is, the Manila bulletin
o received at midnight, as a part
of the press report for this
mornings publication. is worse than
disappointment.
In this country the anticipation was
that the islanders We're on their last
legs and ready to surrender on our
terms. The news of the past two or
three days was to the effect that the
Aguinaldo forces, thoroughly dlsheart
eneda had permitted word to reach
General Otis that those of them that
had not already taken. to the noun
tains were prepared to appear in un-
conditional surrender and submit to the
best terms they could get.
Not longer ago than yesterday after
noon the press dispatches announced
that definite peace propositions from
the Filipino government are immi-
nent,' that the forces have been for
the last four days willing to secure
peace on any terms General Otis may
see fit to offer' and that if Agunaldo
does not act the natives will repudiate
MS leduefSnlp. MOst SlSnlflcant OF all,
in yesterday afternoons news, was the
statement that the Filipino congress,
on May 6, had appointed a commission
whose members, so the assurances
were, would appear at almost any
moment and settle according to the
lines laid down some time ago by
General Otis.
It transpires that several commits
sioners appeared in Manila yesterday
Their proposition was an armistice
pending the session of the Filipino
congress-a proposition which General
Otis summarily rejected days ago The
whole incident appears to be added
proof that these Aguinaldo warriors
are willy men; the suspicion IS that
they are banking on weather and eli
mate to do for them what their arms
have failed to achieve.
1t may yet appear, however, that this
revival of the proposition once rejected
by General Otis is merely a manifesto
ton of what, to Aguinaldo's way of
thinking, is diplomacy and that before
these commissioners retire they will
frankly own up and accept the newt
able.

complete his term in six years and
three months. He is not yet 90 years of
age.
After being taken back to Jail Neary
expressed himself satisfied with the
verdict and it will probably also give
satisfaction generally, for the evidence
at the trial disclosed the fact that he
acted under considerable provocaton
and great excitement when he used

violent blow in the face without cause.

John Phillips. a miner living at the

three other miners. as he claimed. and
was getting the worst of it, when he de-
cided TO run for it. Officer Loughrin saw
him running bareheaded and took after
him, calling to him to stop. Phillips
thought the other fellows We're after him
and increased his speed until he distanced
the officer. Officer Leyden came up at
this juncture and took up the chase. but
Phillips was too speedy for him and he
could not catch him. Not knowing what
the man had done and fearing it was
something serious. Officer Leyden did not
propose to let him get away. and so he
called him several times to stop, and just
as Phillips was in front of the city hall
he fired shot in the air. The shot had
the desired effect and Phillips quit The
shot. together with the yelling, called out

the excitement until they learned nothing

ing arrested, his face was badly bruised
and he had a cut in his head, which he
said was caused by one of his antagonists

Y complaint with this office

doing service in the Philippines. This
correspondents assertion, accurately
summed up, Is that the volunteers were
practically without the duty Of rem
dering any service for long time after
they enlisted that they Ought GER
tainly to be willing to do a little over

fighting, the death rate. when you fig

All this, as the Standard said recent
ly, is the style of testimony given by
the patriotic member of the home guard
one of the men who did not enlist:
one of those who think that a little
more or less of it for the volunteers
doesn't make so very much odds Our
correspondent evidently has not taken
account of the vital fact pointed out bv

duty of the administration, in any
event, was to give to these volunteers,

At the instance of John Schneider. q
complaint was filed in Justice Smith S
court at South Butte yesterday, upon
which warrant for third degree as
sault was issued for the arrest of Abra-
ham Mime. Schneider reported. to Dep
uty County Attorney Alley that Mime
came to his house in Mahoney avenue
in a beastly state of intoxication. He
did the good Samaritan, as he supposed
by going after Mines wife to take him
home. A rumpus ensued upon the ar
rival of the lady, and Mime repaid
Schneder's kindness by drawing q
knife and cutting him across the face.
Schneider is the man who some
months ago had his one-armed wife
and her brother arrested for heinous
offense. At the trial the charge was
disproven and Prosecutor Alley direct
ed the arrest of Schneider for a brutal
assault on his wife, Of which charge he
was convicted.
