AN UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT.
Filipino Women and Children
SheIIed by GunbOat.

MANILA. Aug. 2.-CVia Hong Kong
The gunboat Rapidan last week shelled
Paete, on the lake, near Santa Cruz. The
town was full of people who had been
encouraged to return after Gen. Law
tons expedition, having been assured
that they would not be molested if they
peaceabiy attended to their business
Lieut. Copp, who was in command Of
the Napidan, heard that the insurgents
had reoccupied the town, and steaming
close in, opened fire with his six-pound-
ers, without warning. The people, see
ing the boat approaching, fed to the
hills in a terrified condition, and with
barely time to escape. One child was
killed and many buildings were dam
aged. The authorities express great re-
gret on account of the incident.
After taking of Calamba by the Amer
leans, Gen. LaWton ordered that Capt
Otis, of the Washington regiment, be re-
heved of his command and placed under
arrest On account of slowness and seem
ing reluctance of the company under his
command in obeying the order to dis
embark from the cascoes and wade
through the marshes under fire The
men say that majority of them have
been sick and unfit for duty and were
given to understand that they would not
be asked to do any more fighting.

WILL BE NO WAR.
Mr.. ChOate Expresses an Opinion on
Alaska boundary Dispute.

LONDON, Aug. S.-Joseph H Choate
the United States ambassador to Great
Britain, was interviewed today by rep
resertative of the Associated Press in
regard to the recent war or arbitration
speech delivered by Sir Wilfrid Laurier
the Canadian premier. He said:
There will be no war. It is safe to
say that no amount Of politics or poll
ticians in either country could occasion
war in this connection
Mr. Choate intimated that Mr.. Lauriers S
recent remarks were a political dodge.
Regarding Mr.. Choate's statement, the
Canadian high commissioner, Lord
Strathcona and Mount Royal, said to a
representative, of the Associated Press:
''Sir Wilfrid Lauriers remark was mere
ly a figure of speech, and not a political
dodge, as intimated by Mr.. Choate. Sir
Wilfrid Laurier would not descend to
such thing, nor did he in any way mean
to challenge the United States. No sensi-
BILE man could regard war as possible,
but Canada is simply taking a leaf out
of the United States book in demanding
now what the United States demanded
IN the Venezuelan case. Canada is now
a nation, although closely allied to Great
Britain. AS such, she must protect her
rights. We merely ask for an equal set
tlement, through arbitration, following
the United States lead. We believe Presi-
dent Mckinley is thoroughly in earnest to
have the question honestly settled. The
Misrepresentation of Sir Wilfrid's remarks
by the United States press is unfortu-
nate. Any bitterness or abuse by the
Canadian press is entirely unauthorized.
The negotiations are progressing, and I
believe a satisfactory settlement of the
Alaskan question will be achieved"

USUALLY RETICENT SECRETARY
OF WAR OUTLINES WORK IN

CAMPAIGN Will Be VIGOROUS
FDNTY THOUSAND MEN WILL HAVE

Mr.. Root Denies That He and the
President Cannot Agree as to a
Policy to Be Pursued in the Phil
iDDincS--WOu Not Answer at
Query as to Possible Removal of
Gen. Otis-PIeased With Troops.
PLATTSBURG, n. Y, Aug. S.-The war
in the Philippines is to be prosecuted with
a vigor that ought to result in speedy
cessation of hostilities there. The cor
respondent of the Associated Press saw
Secretary of War Root tonight in the
office of the Hotel Champlain, just after
he had said goodbye TO the president and
was prepared to take the 9:45 o'clock
train for Washington. The secretary re
ferred to his visit to Plattsburg barracks
this afternoon, where he witnessed a regi-
mental drill of the Twenty-sixth regulars.
This regiment has been recruited and
organized within six weeks, and they drill
like veterans.
THE progress which the officers and
men of the Twenty-sixth regiment have
made in drilling in so short a time Is
simply marvellous" said Mr.. Root. 1T
shows the wonderful power Of the United
States when ten regiments of volunteer
soldiers can be recruited, drilled and
equipped for active service in the field
in so short time"
''Will the war in the Philippines be
prosecuted vigorously from now on?'
asked the Associated Press correspondent.
Mr.. Root turned on his heel and re-
piled, quick as a flash:
es, sir, the war in the Philippines
from now on will be prosecuted with all
possible energy. All the men, all the
end the trouble in the islands will be
furnished at the earliest possible mo-
ment"
How large a force will be at the dis
posal of the commanding general there?"
Was asked
There will be $4,000 men there ready
for active service at the close of the
rainy season, by the last of October. and
more will be sent if necessary"
With reference to the rumors puhIisbad
in some papers that President Mckinley
and he could not agree upon a policy to
be pursued in the Philippines. Mr. Root
said:
OF course that is all nonsense"
Asked as to a prospective change of
commanders in the Philippines, Mr.. Root
SAID he could not say anything on that
at the present.
1t is gathered that there will be an
energetic campaign in the Philippines.

Final Slap at the Commanding Cen
eraI of the Army

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-Since the pub
lication of the order defining the duties
of the inspector general of the army a
change has been made in the second
paragraph. This portion directed that
officers of the inspector generals bureau,
when not assigned to duty in depart
ments, should be under the direction of
the secretary of war and commanding
general of the army. In the order as pub
lished today the words "and commanding.
general of the army are omitted, leav-
ing the order, it is said, as approved by
Secretary Alger.

PHILIPPINE COURTS.
War Department in Receipt of Gen.
Otis Orders.

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-The orders of
Gen. Otis establishing courts in the Phil
ippines have been received by the war
department. On June an order was is
sued in which courts in the province Of
Manila, and the courts of peace in the
city of Manila were e-estabished as
they were prior to Aug. 49, 1898, "in so far
as compatible with the supremacy Of the
United States in the Philippine islands
and the exercise of military government
therein" The province is divided into dis
tricts and the judges district attorneys
and justices of the peace are named. All
of these have Spanish names. The sec
retaries of the courts are directed to
report to Lieut.. Col E. H. Crowder judge
advocate of the army in the Philippines
An order dated June 26 directed the con-
solidatiOn of the offices of copyrights,
patents and trademarks, administered as
separate bureaus heretofore, and Capt.
George P. Ahern, Ninth infantry, is plac-
ed in charge.

the messages of the president. The gen
eral view at that time was that recogni-
ton OF belligerency in itself was not a
casus beli1. Up to the present time there
has been no intimation to the state de-
partmeDt that any foreign power enter
tanned even the remotest idea of giving
recognition to Aguinaldo and his asso-
ciates. On the contrary, there has been
a most friendly feeling maintained be-
tween this government and foreign pow
ers throughout the Philippine conflict.
The state department does not share the
apprehension which is said to have arisen
among army officers that China has given
indirect recognition to the Filipinos. This
apprehension grew out of report from
Gen. Otis that horses could not be Sc
cured for cavalry use from China because
they were "contraband of war"
At the state department it is said that
the matter has not assumed a form in
volving the recognition of a state of war,
but that Minister Conger reports China S
course is due entirely to certain domestic
regulations prohibiting the expectation
of horses or ponies.
The course which the foreign consuls
at Manila will pursue in connection with
AgUinaldoS communication is a matter
of some conjecture among officials here.
At the state department there is no dis
position to limit the consuls in forward
ing the appeal to their respective govern
ments. AS rule it is quite unusual for
consuls holding exeQuaters from a friend
ly government and having official relation
with it to carry on communication with
an insurrectionary leader. But 1t is ap-
preciated that in this case the consuls
are the innocent victims of Aguinaldo's
letter writing. AS military authority Is
supreme in the Philippines, any questions
arising to the course of consuls would
probably be referred to Gen. Otis, but
there is no intimation here that he has
advised of the address or that he will
have any objections to its transmission
by the consuls. 1t is rather expected,
how wever, that the consuls will take oc-
casion to advise with the military au-
thorities as to the proprieties of the sit
uation before taking final action
