GEN. FUNSTON INTERVIEWED.
The Noted Kansan Speaks on the Philip
pine PrOblem-Cavalry Greatly
Needed In the War.

Kansas City, NO., Sept. "A special
to the Star from Manila says: Gen.
Frederick Funston and Mrs. Funston
are with the Kansas regiment. Gen.
Funston has undergone an operation
necessitated by an injury resulting from
fall from his horse while serving in
the Cuban army with Gen. Gomez. In
an interview Gen. Funston remarked
that If he was in good health he would
not mind staying in Luzon. He dis
likes war, but inasmuch as there is
fighting he would like to remain and
aid in bringing it to close. Speaking
of the future, he said.
The only solution of the problem will be
through whipping the insurgents. / do not
think they will surrender When we begin &C.
tive operations against them on o larger scale
in the autumn we will scatter them into small
bands and think when the soldiers composing
these bands see that they are persistently pur-
sued they will throw away their arms and return
to their pursuits of peace. A year hence small
bodies Of armed men will be able to go anywhere
in Luzon. The island was always infested with
bandits and was never safe for Europeans to
travel in. Cavalry is greatly needed here. The
country. when dry, is superb for cavalry opera
tions The insurgents have none. One Of their
strong points is their ability to retreat rapidly
Cavalry could overtake and hopelessly scatter
and punish them and could subsist largely on
the country.

vana the following proclamation:
Executive Mansion Aug. l7.-To the People
Of Cuba: The dsorganized condition Of your
island resulting from the war and the absence
of any general recognized authority aside from
the temporary military control of the United
States have made 1t necessary that the United
States should follow the restoration Of order
and peaceful industry by giving Its assistance
and supervision to the successive steps by
which you will proceed to the establishment OF
an effective self government.
As preliminary step in the performance OF
this duty, have directed that census OF the
people of Cuba be taken and have appointed
competent and disinterested citizens Of Cuba as
enumerators and supervisors. 1t is Important
for the proper arrangement of your new govern
ment that the information sought shall be fully
and accurately given, and | request that by
every means in your power you aid the officers
appointed in the performance Of their duties,
WILLIAM MCKINLEY.
The proclamation will be published

FRANCHISES In PORTO RICO.
Washington, Aug. 3l.-The war de-

in the matter of franchises by granting
a revocable license to Ramonde Valdez
to construct a, system of canals and
electric lighting and power works on
the Rio Plata at point at II miles
above San Juan, Porto Rico. This is
the first license of the kind yet issued.
Mr.. Valdez is native Porto Rican and
the war department was induced to
grant the license because the construc-
tion of the plants means the expendi-
ture among the distressed inhabitants
of Porto Rico of about 5000, 900, The
license is made revocable because the
department is advised that legally it
can 60 no further but must leave its
