London, April 1S.-The Times, COM
menting editorially today upon Major
General Lawton's retirement from the
Laguna de Bay district in Luzon, finds
in it nothing surprising or discouraging.
British generals have often had to do the
same thing, says The Times, in similar
circumstances. a much graver mat
ter is the reported discomfort of the
American troops. but here also all coun-
tries pursuing foreign policy have had
the same difficulties to contend with, and.
no doubt, the United States will soon
find it advisable to initiate European
measures and to enlist a regular force
for the purpose of holding the Philip
pines. Foreign possessions cannot be
held by volunteers.

SHOULD TRY MORAL SUASION
British OlhCers Advice on Philip

London. April lS.-The Daily Chronicle
publishes this morning an interview with
Lieutenant General Clarke. agent gem
eral for Victoria and Tasmania. and for
mer governor and commander-inch
of the straits settlements, regarding
the American policy in the Philippines.
Sir Andrew urges a thorough UNDER
standing of the native character and
government, SO far as possible, by native
institutions. The Americans, in his
opinion, should first discover Aguinaldo's
source of supplies, and then turn these
into agencies of trade for the settlement
of the country. They should show the
natives that this would be a better out
let for capital. and they would thus be
depriving the enemy of the siuews of
war
After that he continues, they should
buy out the religious orders. with the
sanction of the pope, and attach the
secular clergy in some way to the ad-
ministratiOn, securing their powerful in
tluence. Underlying everything, says
Sir Andrew. must be the good will of the
natives. Then, with carefully selected
administrators, the United States would
have nothing to fear from the Fill
pinos."
The interview was supplemented by
report based upon the experience of
British admins traitors in the straits set

THE CONDITION Of TRADE
Industrial Activity Is a Promi-
nent Feature.
PRICES ARE HOLDING UP
The Pig Iron Output Materially De-
creased-Additiona Advances in
Wages An Active Spring
Demand.

New York, March 10.-Bradstreert's to-
morrow will say: Industrial and trade
activity is still a prominent feature of
the general business situation. Price
strength. too, is noticeable, especially
in view of the midwinter rise of FeAru-
airy. except in the case of the leading
cereals and wool. In manufacturing
lines the situation is one of great activ-
ity. Additional advances in wages an
nounced this week seem likely to swell
the number of workers whose wages
are reported advanced to close to 1I5,-
uuo. The IRON and steel trade is still eX-
cited by a feverish demand, inadequate
supplies and further advances in quota
tons. Shut downs for repairs and other
reasons have reduced the pig iron out
put materially, and current production
is said to be considerably below that of
January l. The number of old furnace S
being furnished up and put in operation
is steadily increasing, but the effect as
yet in production is not very marked
"A lower tendency in wool is a disap-
pointing factor. Lumber is active at
most markets and prices are firm, be-
cause of well cleaned up stocks. Raw
and refined sugar have alike moved up
"dlu, partly because OF unfaVOra bl G
Cuban crop advices, and also in sympa-
tiny with the Improvement going on in
European beet markets. Refined has
been marked up. Notwithstanding the
trade war now going on. Wheat is
weaker, notwithstanding crop damage
reports, and other cereals are in sympa-
thy chiefly because of the growth of
bearish views Of supplies held by farm
efs and tendency to discount the gen
orally expected heavy government esti-
mates of wheat in farmers hands.
Reports from leading markets East
and West are of an active spring Job
bling demand, particularly for dry
goods. but shared in by clothing, shoes
and other staples. On the Pacific coast
business is fairly good, except at San
francisco, where general trade is below
the average, owing to uncertainty re-
garcing the crops. Wheat. including

LOSES A SENATOR.
Delaware viii Probably BE Minus One
for Two Years.


Dover, March 10.-The democrats and
| regular republicans who have been
| such important factors in the triangu-
| lar senatorial fight had an understands
| ing this evening which amounted to an
agreement to disagree, but to leave Del
aware with only one senator at Wash
| ington for two years.
What do you regulars propose to
do" asked the democrats.
IF YOU will support Senator Gray or
give him five votes more in recognition
of his services TO the nation a this crit
ical time, we will support him to a
man.
This was declined by the regulars.
but they agreed, if the democrats want
ed to weed out Addicks. to give them
one more opportunity by taking up
Colonel Dupont again, for whom some
of the democratic assemblymen had eX-
pressed a desire to vote. The democrats
said no to this, and the result is that
they are voting for whomsoever they
please, While the regulars have again
brought Colonel Dupont into the fight.
The democrats therefore will not take
up Senator Gray again as an unit be-
cause they realize the necessity Of leav-
ing the senatorship an open question
for two years hence, and the Importance
of arousing the enthusiasm of leading
democrats by votes for them to- morrow
and Monday. the last days of the SEES
sion. 1t is consequently expected that
tomorrow voting will last well into
the afternoon. and will make the day
a memorable one in the history of Della
