Victoria, B. c., June 29-Details of
the drowning of five men of Company
G., Twelfth infantry, U. S. A., in the
Pasig river June 8, were brought from
the Orient by the steamer Empress of

the direction of an officer were cross
ing the river on a small raft made of

men were crossing in regular squads,
but at the time of the accident the raft
was overloaded, and rapidly filled until

The water was full of struggling men,
fighting against the swift current and
heavy equipments, and before they
could be rescued five had gone down

Chicago. June 29.--General Charles
King, who commanded the First bri-
gade, First division, First army corps,
In the Philippines, arrived in Chicago
last night.
The general discussed the various
phases of the Philippines situation
freely, and among other things de-
clared that If General Otis had had
$4,000 troops at his command at the
outbreak of hostilities he would prac-
tically have stamped out the insur~
rection by the beginning of the rainy
season. He expressed the opinion,
however, that warfare of a guerrilla
character is likely to be kept up for
some time after the close of organized
opposition. He also said that General
Otis should have from $4,000 to 60 900
men when active hostilities shall be
resumed with the return of the dry
season. He reiterated his former
statement that the Filipinos are ca
pable of self government, and paid a
tribute to the western volunteer SOL
diers, who, he declared, have proved
themselves to be the best soldiers in
the world.

Report That a New Emperor WIN
soon BE Proclaimed.
Victoria, B. c., June 29.-It is re-
ported at Pekin, according to news re-
ceived by the Empress of China, that
the emperor will resume power next
month; another report that about June
goth a new emperor will be proclaimed.
One authority believes the new ruler
will be a grandson of the late Prince
Kung, another asserted that a grand
son of the fifth princess (Prince
Tunph) has been chosen.
The empress dowager is said to be
altogether "out of Sorts" full of
anxiety, and much given to weeping.
The palace is far from enjoying a state
of harmony.
The cabinet is little better. Wang
Wen Shao pleads age and infiTmity,
and then Telapses into silence. Kang
vi is jealous of the immense power
now welded by Jung Lou and despises
him for his inexperience in important
government business, but both hold to-
gether for the maintenance of the en-
press dowager and the enrichment of
the manchus, whose present watch
word is: 1T Is going; grab as much
as possible while the chance lasts"
Denying Charges of Extravaganza.
Harrisburg, June 29.-T L. Eyre,
superintendent of public grounds and
buildings, said in relation to the pro-
posed expenditures at the executive
mansion: "At a meeting of the board
of public grounds and buildings The
question of furnishing the mansion
was considered. The items-the ele-
vator, decorating halls anu stairways,
raising the roof over the Office and pro-
viding additional sleeping rooms, oil
paintings and marble statues were all
disallowed. None of these expenses
will be incurred. The board has had
no intention at any time to make these
expenditures. The governor opposed
the outlay. These items we're in the
schedule of possible things required
during the coming year, like many
other items that get into the schedule" 4"

The Tin Plate Factories.

1t is unfortunate that the tinplate
manufacturers of the country should
be the first to strike a discord in the
note Of prosperity that very gener-
ally prevails at the present time. 1t
is reported that rather than agree to
the demands Of their employees for a
slightly increased wage every factory
in the country will close indefinitely,
throwing some $4,000 men out of
work.
The tinplate makers are the most
prominent beneficiaries of tariff
schedule arranged for their sole bene.
fit. Under the schedule the tinplate
industry has prospered and is to-day
in the foremost rank of American in
dustries The workingmen have
asked for an increase Of wages. By
every precedent and in keeping with
the object OF the tariff that supports
the industry their request should be
granted, if it is possible to do so.
Acting under the impression thai
the demand came mostly from radi
calls among the workingmen the in
crease was refused and the shutdown
announced as reported above. But
it turns out that the workingmen'l
petition was not the work of the radi
cal wing Of their organization, but o
the conservative body of the labor
ers. In any event, this peevish anC
spiteful attitude toward $4,000 work
ingmen who ask for an increase o
wages is deserving of something
better than threats from the tinplat'
manufacturers.
