CREATES A SENSATION.
the Constitution Causes Angry Ex-
pressions of Disappointment.

Kingston, Jamaica, July 31.-The re-
port of Sir David Barbour, late financial
minister of India, who has been study
ing the sugar industry of Jamaica in
it's bearing upon the political situation,
has been published here. The report
has created sensation and angry dis
appointment, being regarded as the re-
suit of prearranged scheme to despoil
the colony of representative constitu-
ton which would be likely to encourage
the American annexation tendency by
alternating the wavering sentiment of
loyalty. The report may be summar-
lied as follows: The condition of the
colony, though precarious, is not alto
gether hopeless; but an immediate loan
of 91,675,000 sterling is necessary,
which would be warrantable only if the
colony resigns its constitution, accept
ing imperial control.
Public opinion considers that any,
thing would be preferable to surrender
of the constitution, the most conserva-
tive even whispering of annexation as
an alternative,

MANILA, Jan. 1.-THE situation at
noilo is unchanged. The F1lipinos are
increasingly active day and night. On
Saturday they loaded some lighters
with rock and sank them at the en-
trance Of the river, blocking the chan
mel for all vessels with the exception of
launches. The lights have been ex-
tinguished. Order, however, is main
talned with severity and offenders are
promptly shot.
On Sunday one of the Arizona's boats,
manned by soldiers, was carried on by
the ebb tide to Quimares Island, and
while attempting to land there armed
natives assembled on the beach and
compelled the Americans to retire. The
Filipinos refuse to have any dealing s
with the Americans. Vegetables and
fruit are not obtainable, business is
suspended and the warehouses are
filled with rotting sugar.
AT Manila the situation is critical, but
pacification is possible in spite OF the
unyielding attitude of the Filipinos. 1t
is reported that the rebel Government
at MalolOs is willing that the Amerl-
cans should establish a Protectorate on
the condition that they promise to give
the Filipinos absolute independence
within a stated time. 1t is also said
that the F'ilipinos will demand official
recognition.
Efforts are being made to bring about
another conference with the rebels. The
educated Filipinos are anxious to avoid
trouble and it is hoped that the mill
tant Filipinos will recede before wiser
counsel In the meantime the tension
is extreme on both sides.

FRIENDSHIP OF GERMANS
AND AMERICANS AT MANILA

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-Maior AL
phonse Won Sonnenburg, the German
military expert who was at Manila
during the blockade by the United
States navy after the battle Of Cavite,
and who is now in this city. speaking
to-day about Rear Admiral Dewey.
said:
There were never any honest differ
ences between Dewey and the German
admiral, Won Diedrichs; there was only
a theoretical difference about the inter-
probation of one word in the expression
'droit de visite" - the right of search
what was the meaning of ViSite, for the
forms of search were different toward
different kinds of vessels, toward mer-
chantmen and ships of war. But after
the friendliest exchange of letters by the
two admirals an understanding was at
that was in it at all / will tell you that
the American squadron once received sup
plies of frozen mutton, and your admiral
sent Admiral Won Diedrichs a present of
half sheep. The other returned the
compliment by sending Dewey living
calf procured somewhere in the islands
You see how stupid to think that they
wanted to begin shooting at each other.
The English were at the bottom Of this
story Of misunderstanding. All that the
English in Manila could do to create sus-
picion between the two countries they
did. They sent false stories to Hong
kong. which from there were telegraphed
over the whole world.
Here's another example Of the broad
mindedness Of Admiral Dewey When
the Consuls of various neutral countries
