LETTER FROM WHEELER.
The General Favors Holding the
Philippines.

Huntsville, Ala, Nov. PA man in
Huntsville received a letter today from
Gen. Joseph Wheeler, dated Santa Rita,
Luzon, P. L, September %, 1899, in
which Gen. Wheeler gives his views on
the question of the annexation of the
Philippines by this government. Gen.
Wheeler says, among other things:
THE time has passed for the people
of the United States to discuss the
question of what is to be done with the
Philippines The territory controlled by
US contains more than 1000. 900 people.
If we were to abandon the country
these people, who desire American pro-
lection, would be subjected to all kinds
of reprisals; their property would be
cOnfiscated and many of them would be
killed. For US to go on and conquer the
country and then withdraw our army
and abandon the country would make
We have induced people to adhere to
US and, therefore, would leave them to
become the victims of revenge.
There is another view We drove out
the Spaniards, who had been the gov
ernlng power nearly 400 years. For US
to withdraw would leave a condition
of anarchy, and foreigners who own
property in the country would have
certainly strong moral claim against
the United States for their losses.
There are nearly. if not quite 80 dis
tinct tribes in the Philippine islands.
and there is very little probability that
they would submit to any government
lnauguraUed by the IagalOS, of whom
AguinaldO calls himself the head Most
certainly government by that class
OF people would be very unjust. and
there would be constant revolts against
it. The result would be that the peO-
pie who have business interests and
property would appeal to some strong
government, Germany for instance to
come with an army and restore order.
l think the people generally want
peace
Under q good government, this coun-
try would be one of the greatest wealth.
and our connection with it would be of
great benefit to the United States The
evil features Of these islands have been
exaggerated to our people. Americans
VIII lind this an excellent field for their
energies, and the neutrality-suspicious.
powers of these islands under American
influence viii be great. The action of
some of the people in the United States
IN asserting that the people of the Phil
lpp1nes ought to have Independence
does great deal of harm and assists
AguinaldO in maintaining the insurrec-
ton. as he publishes all assertions by
Americans of that character and he tells
his supporters that if they hold Out.un-
til winter independence will be given
them The people who are disposed to
be favorable to US and who desire US to
govern the islands fear to assert them
selves. because they know. if they do so
and the Americans should abandon
them, they would be in great danger
OF their lives, and in all probability
their property would be cOnfiscated."
