CONDITION IN PHILIPPINES
SENSATIONAL REPORT BY AN ADJ
MINISTRATION AGENT.
Otis Numerically Criticised-Corrup-
to Retain General Otis in Command"

The San Francisco Call of October 10,
publishes a page article purporting to
be a COPY of a report made to the Adj
ministration by special agent sent
to the Philippines for that purpose.
The name of the agent is not given,
but it is stated that the report was
secured through an influential man who
is close to the Administration.
The Call thus summarizes this report
Auguinaldo has more power than we
are inclined to admit. His name is
one to conjure with.
1t will be a good deal easier to restore
peace when you have $4,000 or 10000
soldiers in the islands, but that the
rebels will ever give up their arms L
do not believe.
1t seems unfortunate to retain Gene
raj Otis in command. He has entirely
lost the confidence of the soldiers and
civilians in the Philippines
Many of the agents sent here are un-
doubtly corrupt. Two young officers
stole supplies of the Red Cross, sold
them, and are now prosperous business
men in Manila.
The deepest danger in the Philippines
| is that we have men in high offices who
can do no governing but simply damn
and kick "niggers."
Men like Funston could have taken
| command of the army, and men like
| irving Hale would be very well suited
| for the civil government.
The Filipino Peace Commissioners
were sharper dipomatists than ours.
The Tagals who are at the head of
the revolution are the smartest, bright
est and best of all the Filipinos.
A silly decree was published, and,
believe upheld by General Otis, that al
marriages that have thus far been per-
formed in the Philippines by Protes-
tant clergymen are null and void.
While we have allowed our soldiers
all to gamble, the Tagals watch us al
cards and craps and fully realize thai
cockfights (Which have been abolished
are no worse.
I am surprised that John Barrett
should state in the Review of Review!
that the people of Cebu asked our pro
lection. The records show that Cebl
was surrendered to the American!
under protest.
There is a good deal of jealousy bet
ween the high officers of the army.
IF offices cannot be filled by men o
merit it will be dangerous for tn,
United States to hold the Philippines.

TO RIVAL THE w. C. T. L.
Founding of a New Organization at
Chicago.

A new temperance society, the Young
Peoples Christian temperance union,
came into being in Willard hall, Chica-
go lately. 1t had a somewhat anarchis-
tic birth. The delegate from Missouri
William K. Reeme of Kansas City, ad-
vocated the use of dynamite in spread
ing temperance doctrines by blowing
up distilleries and breweries, declaring
that violence would furnish the only
means by which the society could ac-
complish it's purpose. The other dele
gates did not agree with the opinion of
the delegate from Missouri, and there
will be decided declarations against the
proposition. The constitution pledges
the newly-fOrmed society to the project
of securing 100000 votes for the pro-
hibition party, and of collecting $1,000
900 or more, if necessary, to save the
Women's temple. In these two respects
it is divergent from the Woman's
Christian temperance union. The lat
ter organization has refused to indorse
political party and has cut loose from
the temple. The new organization &C.
ognizes both sexes, while the Woman S
Christian temperance union admits wo-
men alone.

VioIinist Pitschinoff Living In a
Peasants House.

Berlin, July 26.-Pitschinoff, the Won
derfuI Russian violinist, who is soon to
play in the United States. is at Pre-
Voro, on the Oste, in a peasants house
in rooms so small, under ceilings so low
that he may not eat in them anything
taller than pancakes, served one by one.
He can not practice his violin there.
There is not space enough. He goes
out under the trees. among the popula-
ton of the barnyard to practice.
He has denied himself all the luxur-
les; he has refused to see relatives,
friends, welI-wishers- He lives in the
solitude of a monk, in a convent of
Asia It seems impossible to realize
that he is to be the sOlOist of the Phil
harmonic society of New York at its
pext concert in the fall.
His violin is an authentic Stradivarius
presented to him by Princess Ousorf of
Moscow. He has received the highest
hOnorarium that was ever given to an
instrumental artist in Berlin. He is the
son Of a brave soldier, the grandson Of
a soldier. The conservatory of Paris
and the musical academies of Russo
and Germany have paid hOnOrs to him
But he is not satisfied. He is Orpheus
The cocks and the hens of the peasants
barnyard strut in an enchantment; the
rare passers-by in country carts, drawn
by oxen, stop to listen to the music that
he plays, and forget the hours. There is
no other subject of village gossip for
miles around than his art
He works as if he were a. student. He
plays by the hour and he spends a least
five hours daily practicing for his en-
gagement in the United States.

cow COMMITTED SUICIDE.
Clarissa, Barnum's Trick Bovine
Drowned Herself

Louisville, Ky, July 26.--Despondent
from the loss of her first and only child
and tired of her slow, monotonous life
in the country, Clarissa, the famous
COW, who was at one time heralded as
one of Barnum's principal attractions,
committed suicide this morning by
drowning herself in a pound at her own
er's place, on the BrownsbOro road.
Clarissa was probably the best in
formed and most perfectly trained COW
of this country. She was born about
twelve years ago on the stock farm of
Mr.. Joe Tevis. in Madison county, Ky.
The COW was sold to P. T. Barnum
turning a somersauIt and was after
wards resold to her former owner. She
once before tried to kill herself.

PRISONER ON A sPIRE.
Aeronsut Loses Control of Parachute
and Narrowly Escapes Death

Pittsburg, Pa, July 26.-Several
thousand persons saw Jack Cassel, a
New York aerOnaUt, dangling from
church spire 200 feet above the ground
and witnessed his escape from death
after it seemed he must lose his grip
from his parachute.
The wind bore his big umbrella over
toward Calvary church, where it enter
ed a calner current of air, and it de-
seconded directly upon the two huge
spires. He narrowly escaped impale-
ment on the lightning rod points, but
the parachute caught on the steeple,
stopping the aeronaut with such a jerk
that he retained his hold only by a des-
perate exertion of strength. He lodged
on the edge of a small gothic window
to which he was enabled to cling. And
there he sat. painting as he gazed down
into the streets filled with excited spec
tatOrs. Casseu caught his parachute
ropes, and tying them end to end he
let the cord down to the pavement A
heavy rope was attached to the cord,
and CasseH pulled it to the top of the
steeple, then he tied the strong rope to
the spire and slid down in safety to the
street
