Bishop Potter believes the saloon ex-
lists because it meets a want, but he
also believes it meets a want deStruc-

Manila-Statement From Junta.

Hongkong, Feb. S.-The Filipino
junta here has issued the following
statement:
simultaneously with the proclama-
ton of the republic, Aguinaldo re-
leased the Spanish war prisoners as
an act of grace.
THE Spanish imposition of the poll
tax is enforced by the Americans with
greater severity. Formerly the poor
paid 81 and the rich S37. Now the low
est pay So and the rich 500, which is
greatly exasperating the people.
THE gambling, cock-fighting, bruis-
ing, squeezing and the American abus-
es of the customs are causing democrat
iZation. The Spanish corrupt, despotic
system seems to be the model of the
American executive.
THE Manila Filipinos are indignant

perimented with by amateur colonial

THE TINE CLOCKS TO GO.
They Have Been An Annoying Fac
tor In the Clerks Official Life

They Have Been An Annoying Fac
tor In the Clerks Official Life.
The clerks of the treasury department
are doubtless rejoicing over the pros
pect that the time clocks" which have
been such an irritating factor in their
official life during the past few months
Will be abolished, according 10 the pro-
visions of the legislative APPROPRIATION
bill as reported TO the house yesterday.
These devices for keeping tab" on the
goings and comings OF the clerks nave
aroused great indignation among tnen-
Some have claimed that the CLOCKS nave
placed them on the basis of laborerS in
the shipyards. Others have based their
objections upon the ground that they
are not treated equitably, receiving no
credit for overtime spent at their desks,
while their little latenesses nave been
vigorously deducted from their records.
Others still have looked at the matter
from a financial point of view, asserting
that the money which might have been
saved To the government by the use
of these clocks has been far more than
counterbalanced by the initial cost OF
the machines themselves ana py the
cost of the clerical labor of computing
the time records thus obtained. The
system. however, has been strenuously
defended by some of the officials or the
department, who have claimed that, de-
spite the petty annoyances to which the
clerks have been subjected, they nave
been made more punctual in their at
tendance at their desks and have been
stimulated to more regular methods or
work Yet other heads of bureaus and
divisions have Joined with the clerks In
protesting that the clocks have been
more of a nuisance than help.
AS TO the matter of deducting from
the annual leave time lost in late ar
irving or in occasional absences from
the building it is to be recalled that
the leave, while in theory only a gra-
tuity., has come to be regarded as part
of the clerks emoluments. it being as
sumed that in all ordinary circum
stances the government, when hiring a
clerk. engages to pay him a twelve
months salary for eleven months of |
work. Yet the theory of gratuity is |
by the fact that the gov
eminent on occasions takes advantage I
of it's right to deny the annual leave, /
such as the emergency which arose /
during the war period, when clerks
were kept at their desks in some de-
partments throughout the summer
without vacations. Nor does the gov
eminent strictly observe the traditional
hours of employment, for in rushes of
work, orders are frequently given for

clerks TO remain at their desks over
time, for which they receive no addi-
ticnal pay. Despite these facts, how
ever. the leave custom has become SO
well grounded that the clerks who OBJ
Ject to tine-clOcks have urged that in
equity they should be given credit for
overtime to offset whatever deduc-
tions may be made from their leave
period as a result of their hardness and
occasional absences. And so the con-
trOversy has progressed until il now
seems settled, for the present at least.

MURDERS IN CHINA.
Two More Victims of the Anti-for-

of the murders OF missionaries and for
eign residents recently in China, de-
tails Of a particularly barbarous affair
at Chong an Chang, involving the life
OF an EngliShman named Fleming and
Evangelist Pan, have been wanting. J.

sion visited the scene Of the murders,
and tells OF a shocking condition of af-

He ascertained that the people of Chon-

every foreigner in the place, and when
Mr.. Fleming set foot in the town he
was q doomed man.
At least 200 people witnessed the muir
der from the opposite side of the river.
Evangelist Pan was suddenly and
quickly cut down. Mr.. Fleming dis
mounted from his mule to go to his
assistance, but he, too, was attacked
and slain after a desperate conflict, in
which he was dreadfully wounded
with sword and an iron spike. The
TWO victims were stripped of their
clothing and their bodies left for three
days on the public road.
