upon the situation. asserting that the
decisive policy Of the Americans will
undoubtedly be successful.
A Spanish banker who was inter
viewed expressed fear that the procla-
nation would not reach the masses
controlling the uprising, because, he
explained. the Filipinos at Manila are
mostly domestics and clerks who have
no definite opinions, and the wire
pullers outside of the city have I'M
doubtedly intercepted it.
Continuing, the Spanish banker said
that If the proclamation had been is!
sued on May ,. or even on August IA
of last wear, the result would have
been different, as, in his opinion, based
on twenty years experience. the only
argument which appeals to the masses
here is the gun.
The editor of "Oceania' thinks the
proclamation is the most polite docu
ment ever published In the Philippine
Islands, and that it is bound TO con
vince the wavering the folly of further
hostilities.
An English merchant says the hrs,
clause, with reference to the estab
lishment and maintenance OF Amer
lean sovereignty and warning the ma
tives would settle the question In the
minds of every thinking Filipino.
A Scotch shipowner thinks 1t does
not leave any further doubt as to the
policy of the United States, and that
consequently, Aguinaldo should sub
nit to the inevitable, as the continu
ance of hostilities is opposed to the
best interests of the Filipinos.

TWO Ex-PRESlDENTS

Both Give Tn6orsen snt to Idea of SHttiing
International Disputes by Arbitration.
Boston. April Among the COM
munications received by the United
Society of Christian Endeavor recent
ly, in connection with its proposition
for a war against war and peace
by arbitration" are two from former
United States Presidents. Grover
Cleveland and Benjamin Harrison.
Mr.. Cleveland wrote: THE mem
hers and the friends of the Society of
Christian Endeavor have never Ell
tered upon an undertaking so practi-
cal and so noble as the effort they are
now making TO secure an abandon
ment of war as means for the settle
ment Of international differences, and
If there is any substance to the claim
that our institutions and the traits
that characterize us as a people tend
to national elevation and ChristianiZ-
alton, it is emnently proper that our
country should be in the lead in any
movement in the interest of peace"
Mr.. Harrisons letter says: For my
self. and much more for the great
body of its citizenship. | express the
desire of America for peace with the
whole world. 1t would have been
vain TO suggest the pulling down of
block houses or family disarmament
to the settlers Of a hostile Indian from
tier. They would have told You. right
ly, that the conditions were not ripe.
And so it may be. and is, probably.
true that full application of the prin-
ciple is not presently possible, the
devil still being unclaimed. 1t is by
spirit of love and forbearance master
ing the civil institutions and govern
ments OF the world that we shall APP
proach universal peace and adopt ar
