With Cubans Coming,

A SAD BLUNDER.
DR.. W hittakerTells ofWrong
Identification of a Body.

Dr. Clarence w. Whitaker has re-
turned from Santiago de Cuba, and last
night came to Worcester from New
York city, where he has been resting
since $50 o'clock Sunday morning.
The physician tells an interesting
story Of his trip. He has gained %
pounds, and said that he never felt
better in his life, but was glad to get
away from Cuba. He thinks that any
man who would take UP his residence at
Santiago should be shot.

The doctors description of the man
ner in which the graves We're located
and the bodies identified is particular

port Cooke, formerly the Roumanian, is
| now at her dock at New York city and
the bodies of nearly TO Massachusetts
men will be shipped from the metropo-
lis to their different destinations and
laid to rest before the latter part Of the
week
The Massachusetts delegation waited
days and weeks for the government to
eXhume the bodies of Massachusetts
soldiers. This delay was caused by Gen.
Woods orders to have men Of the New
York state regiments taken care Of be-
fore others were touched. The Massa-
chusetts delegation after the arrival of
''the funeral ship" waited four weeks.
DR., Whitaker got tired of waiting and
asked Supt. Rhoades to allow him to
commence work. He volunteered to do
anything. dig graves, drive mules or
boss the bang of natives, and after this
plea the superintendent placed the doc
tor in charge of party OF five natives
and deputized Undertaken Oliver J.
Lyons of the government staff to see
that the bodies were properly eXhumed.
Under the guidance of DR.. Whitaker,
! the Cubans commenced their work upon
the graves of four heroes whose resting
places were without d mark of any
| kind.
| The bodies when brought to the sur
| face were found to have been buried
with empty ginger ale bottles tied
around their necks and inside of each
| bottle was the soldiers name.
! The four graves contained the re-
mains of Benjamin Riley, Co. NJ, Sec
ond Massachusetts, of Adams, Archie
c. Hale of Boston, who was MEM
Der of the Second regiment, but the
doctor did not learn to which company
he belonged. Private Stetson of
| Springfield and another private from
| the same city were the last to be
brought to the surface.
The bodies of Paul Vesper, Arthur
NJ. Burnham of Springfield Hugh G.
Davis of Athol, were brought to the
surface of the ground later in the
| day
| After Dr. Whitaker had started the
work Of eXhuming the Massachusetts
men, the work progressed rather slow

RICHMOND, Virginia, ministers have
inaugurated a crusade for the enforce
ment of the Sunday laws. An appeal
has been issued asking the people to
cooperate in the movement. One
speaker at the conference described
the late revolution in Nashville result
ing from a concerted popular move
ment, He said that the chief of police
would do nothing to remedy the evil,
nor would the mayor or the board of
public works, until the citizens arose en-
masse and requested that the governor
send troops to Nashville to enforce the
laws. Then the board of public works
got down to work and removed the
chief of public from Office and started
a new regime, with the result that the
Sunday laws were enforced and strict
ly observed. This may have indicated
some slight Impotence on the part of
the people of Nashville with those
public officers who had taken oath TO
enforce the laws, but such Impotence
Is sometimes remarkable as q disinfect-
ant.

The largest item of Japan impor-
tations is raw cotton. The importation
of raw cotton has steadily and rapidly
grown since 1892. Cotton spinning
machinery has been rapidly introduced
into the Oriental Yankeedom, the
number Of spindles row in operation
being nearly four times that in 1893.
Tie southern United States are direct
ly interested in this fact. Their
cotton must come into competition in
Japan with that of British India and
China. In 1896 less than seventeen per
cent of the raw cotton imported into
Japan was from the United States: in
1898 the proportion had doubled.
Further statistics show that American
cotton Is steadily growing in favor in
Japan and is rapidly taking the place
of the products of India and China not
withstanding the fact that these mar
kets are much nearer and labor much
cheaper than in the United States.
The reason for this complete victory OF
the American product over all compel
itors is Superior quality. AS an ex-
ample of what maybe accomplished for
our southern and western states by
a systematic effort to extend their
trade with the orient, these figures are
deeply significant.

philippine PROBLEM.
Question of Indemnity.

Should our government Withdraw
from the Philippines, that very act
would constitute tacit admission that
the war against the Filipino was
wrong from the outset. And with
drawal of our forces would constitute
an admission of liability for An
indemnity to the Filipinos for the los
ses incident to the war, including all
property destroyed by our troops. No
doubt we could, by treaty with the FL
lipinos, al sOlve ourselves from any legal
liability for indemnity, yet the moral
obligation would still remain, and SEN
timents of honor would prompt US to
discharge such obligation--on the same
principle which impelled us to pay
$40, 600, 900 TO Spain as an incident to
the cession of the Philippines.
Is our government prepared to ad-
NIT liability for indemnity for the war
against the Filipinos? Would not such
an indemnity amount to more than the
cost of prosecuting the war to q con-
clusion? After paying Spain 100000
600 to extinguish her title to the is
expense in an attempt to
restore peace and order rs
preliminary to the establishment of
a stable government, or the founda-
ton of Independence, are we prepar-
ed to give up athe islands, and pay
an indemnity to the natives? Let us
bear in mind that a withdrawal would
render US both legally and morally
responsible for . war ind smnity.
am not prepared to say that, in
case We should withdraw from the
Philippines and An independent gov
eminent should be established there,
that the subject of indemnity to tho FL
lipinos might become question
for arbitration-under the
moral and political support of 9TH
or powers-yet such case
would be possible. When, during tho
war between the states an attempt was
made to terminate the contest, the
proposition to that end contemplated
the payment of a war indemnity to the
confederate states, at least the
contemplated payment for the
slaves would have been an equivalent to
a war indemnity. If we withdraw
from tho Philippinss, We shall admit
that we weres in error in prosecut-
ing the war, and by that
very act shall render
liable to make due repara-
ton to q poor, half-civilized people for
the ravages of war. Are we prepared
for a withdrawal and the payment of
3 largo war indemnity?

THE congress that will assemble ir
December will have three very i'm
portant matters to consider: first, the
establishment of more or less perma-
nent government for our colonies,
Dorto Riaa Ha a,e;i, -~-I 49, f>fI:ffp-
pines, and the erection of an autonom-
Gus government in Cuba or prepara-
ton for the final dispersion of that is
land; second, currency legislation in
volving a formal declaration for the
gold standard, provision for the protec-
tion of the gold reserve. and If pos
sible the retirement of the greenbscks
and the reform of the national banking
system; third, the question of the
trusts. In the Forum for October
Charles G. Dawes, comptroller of the
currency, outlines the chief steps in
currency reform which the friends of
sound money hope for and expect from
the next congress. He quotes from
President McKinley's second inaugural
address as follows:
In my judgment the present condi-
ton of the treasury amply Justihes the |
immediate enactment of the legislation |
recommended one year ago under |
which portion of the gold holdings |
should be placed in a trust fund, from |
which greenbacks should be redeemed |
upon presentation, but when once re-
deemed should not thereafter be paid |
out except for gold.
"This plan of the PRESIDENT" says Mr.. |
Dawes, ''has commended itself, during |
the past year, to the best judgment Of |
q constantly increasing number, until |
there now seems to be an almost un-
animous consensus of opinion among |
the friends of sound money that It will |
properly be the foundation of the COM
ing legislative reform of the currency.
If congress does nothing more than en-
act law declaring the standard to be
gold, and providing for its security aad
safety by this plan of the president, it
will have carried into effect one of the
greatest financial reforms of our his
tory" The presidents recommends
tion is remarkably simple and easy of
Every body can
understand why it is desirable to pro-
vide relief from the SO called "endless
chain'' which caused so much trouble
during Cleveland's administration
when democratic free traders were
doing their best to bankrupt the coun-
try. Under the "endless chain," green
backs or government demand notes
were being turned into the treasury in
enormous quantities in exchange for
gold, and were reissued as soon as
received, through being paid out on
account of governmental expenses. The

safety of our currency,

His Reward.

Among the stories of that former
governor of Texas Familiarity known
as Sam" Houston is more than one
amusing tale.
There was financial agent of the
penitentiary who had warmly opposed
the election of Governor Houston, but
was particularly anxious to retain his
own pleasantly lucrative position.
Consequently the governor was soon in
receipt of a petition in which the man g
years of faithful service and special
qualifications for the place were set
forth in glowing terms by himself.
The governor sent for him and said,
gravely: SIT appears from this petit
tion that you have been in the peniten-
tiary eight years?'
81 have" was the reply.
''And during that time you have
performed faithfully every duty that
has come In your way to the best of
your ability?"
81 have" answered the agent, his
courage swiftly rising.
'tThen, sir" said the governor, with
he air of one comforting priceless
favor. ST pardon you out!'-Baltimore
