Otis HAS FIR EE Rein.
Must Exercise Own Discretion in
Philippines.

Washington, February There was an
almost complete release today from the
tension under which the rapid occurrence
of events In the Philippines has held the
officials OF the administration since the
first startling news from Manila Satur-
day night. This was brought about
| through the receipt of bulletin from
Gen. Otis, summing up the latest results
of the fighting he has had with the ma
tives. The statement that Aeuinaldo's 8
influence had been destroyed and that the
Filipino leader was seeking for &C sss-
tion of hostilities and for a conference,
was most acceptable and was interpreted
Us an admission that he had realized his
terrible mistake. Ii Is entirely improb'
able that he will be able to restore anything
like the status quo, or to obtain anything
like the same terms as were POS. BILE last
week No one here now knows what
Gen. Otis intends TO impose In the way
of tsrms Secretary Alger this afternoon
repeated his statement OF yesterday that
he had given the general no instruction !
since the battle and saw no reason for
giving any.
He realized, he said, that Gen. OTIS.
| being on the ground and having prov d
his fitness, was In better position TO deal
with the situation than anyone In Wasn-
| ington. Should the General ask perinis-
| sion therefore to do anything. he would
be granted permi ssion Immediately.
"Should he ask fer Instructions on any
point" said Secretary Alger, ''he W i'll tie
told to exercises his own discretion.
In this view Of the case it will be seen
| that no one here can tell at present how
Otis will act toward Aguinaldo's applica-
zion. but the opinion Is expressed by
men here who know Gen. Otis's expert
snoe with the Indians, that be will make
the laying down Of arms the condition
of dealing with the insurgents at all and
| II that condition is met. of course it viii
mean speedy termination of the rebel
| lion.
The Portland daily press., 1899-02-09

Bangor, including the Bangor house and
the Penobscot Exchange hotels, an In
tsrest of.about $4,000 In the Eastern
Maine State fair and other. smaller items,
segregating about $500 In addition to
these assets whose value can be approx
mately estimated, Mr.. Bsal has claims
against the Penobscot Central railroad
for the amounts advanced for Its con-
s.ruction. The value of these claims
depend entirely upon the sale
Of the bonds. When the bonds can
be sold and at what price. is a
problem for flnanciers. The Bangor house
Is valued at about 500. 900, but, there are
mortgages upon it amounting to about
go. 600, and Mr.. Beal's interest In the
Penobscot Exchange amounts to only
about 20, 900
II Is expected that there will be meet
ing Of the creditors m few days, when
further steps will be taken. Among the
Bangor creditors is Horace G. Chapman,
landlord OF the Bangor house.. who holds
Mr.. Bears notes for considerable
amount. Mr.. Beal has been in Augusta
since morning, and his attorney, Hugh
r. Chaplin. is also there. SO that no state
ment from either can be obtained to-
night. Assignee Ryder says that sched
uls Of assets and liabilities win be pre-
pared In few days.
The Portland daily press., 1899-02-09

Representative Gardiner of Patten and
Representative Powers of Fort Fairfield
are with Dir. Webb in the front rank OF
the two cent forces. Mr.. Gardiner intro
duced the fr,t bill which is a copy of the
Massachusetts law. Today MIR. Webb pre-
sented the bill based on the Vermont
statute. The bill ia as follows:
Section !. Every railroad corporation,
operating, managing or controlling any
railroad Of over fifty miles, which Is
wholly or partly located in this state,
shall provids and have on sale at all
principal stations on car line of tie road
within this state at rate not exceeding
two oen is per mile, mileage tickets in the
form of coupon books of convenient size.
containing coupon representing one
thousand miles or less which shall be ac-
ceptsd aud received for the fare of the
bearer of sa!d mileage ticket, or person
presenting the same, on all lines OF the
railroad within this state of the corpora
ton presenting the same; prov ided. how
ever, that no single passage shall be
granted for less than three mileage
coupons.
Section T. Every railroad corporation
included within the provision Of this act
| violating any provision OF section one OF
this act, shall be fined not less than sI0C
nor more than $500, to be recovered upon
complaint. one-half to the complainant
and the balance to the county where the
offence Is committed.
The act would apply TO eight railroads,
the Bangor and Aroostook, the Boston
and Maine, the Canadian and Pacific, the
Grand Trunk, the Maine Central, the
Portland and Rochester and Portland and
Rumford Falls, and the Washington
county hne. The first real discussion OF
the question will come before ths railroad
committee when tne hearing is given on
the two bills pending. but there is SC
much talk about 1t in the lobbies OF the
state House ami the corridors of the
hotels here, that some idea of the line oi
argument may be gained now. The re-
port OF the railroad commissioners will b
relied upon from many of the figures like
ly to be used by both sides of the contro
versy. In that report are statements c
