.F|L|P|NOS VS.. AMERICANS
WANT TO GET INTO A FIGHT.
A Filipino Oficer Thought He Might
Fight Our Montana B0ys-He saluted
Our Flag and Rotterdam Appeal Is
sued by Filipinos.

Manila, Jan. 10, via Hong Kong, Jan.
2l.-The Americans and Filipinos were
probably nearer conflict this afternoon
than at any time since the occupation.
Fortunately the matter was amicably set
tied. A Filipino lieutenant imagining
that his men had been insulted by some
American troops, marched company OF
40 armed natives to the line of the Amer
leans and the sentries. four in number,
back of the Montana regiment, in obedi-
ence to orders, were compelled Ito retire
to the outpost in order to avoid trouble.
AS the Nlipinos disObeyed the command
to halt, deployed in the canebrake and
assumed determined, threatening atti.
tude, Lieutenant Jansen, who was in COM
mand Of the post, telegraphed 10 brigade
headquarters and General Otis personally
investigated the matter. The Filipino
captain was summoned and he was also
found to be excited. AS a result of the
conference he admitted that the Filipino
lieutenant had exceeded his authority. His
men were drawn up in line, saluted, cour-
tesies were exchanged and the Fiipinos
retired.
The incident is significant, as it shows
the tendency of the Filipinos to disregard
pickets, knowing that the Americans are
not willing to commence hostilities and
it also demonstrates the danger of ire
sponsible junior officers of the Filipino
army precipitating trouble at any mo-
ment.
An Appeal In Broken English.
Another proclamation, purporting to be
issued by an American and signed "W.
t." appeared on Friday and appealed in
broken English to brother Americans and
comrades to let the Filipinos alone and
that eff their officers compelled them to
fire, to please fire in the air."
The proclamation also appealed to
Americans to disregard Nlipinos who pre-.
tend to favor annexation. and alleged
that the American agitation to hold the
islands is fostered by few officers who
are making money thereby"
The proclamation concluded with para
phrasing the Monroe doctrine in the
words: ''The Philippines for the Nlipinos."
A native dentist here named Arevollo
has been arrested. He denies the author
ship of the document, but admits connec-
ton with it. Other arrests are probable,
He has been twice imprisoned by the
Spaniards for treason. He was formerly
an aide of Aguinaldo's and his arrest
caused CONSERVATION among the Flipinos.

as a promise that his administration

one. To have the people free from sus-

precedent to the successful handling Of
the complicated affairs of the island.
Perhaps no man could have been

Wood will be. He has been firm yet

district and they respect him; as gov

ably enjoy the same popularity.

IN DEFEssn or MINERS MEETINGS.

Juneau, Alaska, Dec. 20. 1899.
To the Editor: In your issue of Decem-
Der Is appears an account Of meeting OF
the Seattle Chamber of Commerce, at
which Gov. Brady Is quoted as saying:
Gov. Brady spoke of miners. meetings wi,',,,

This statement has caused a wave OF In
dignation In this community. We have
long recognized that minerE meetings are
terror to evil-doers, and there 10 no In
stance on record In this territory where
substantial justice has not been done.
The miners of Alaska are admitted by
every writer who has cnronicled his Inn
pressions as being far above the average
In intelligence, and particularly law
abiding. In q vast district like this. with
no available remedy at law, abuses would
be practiced and crimes committed far
oftener than Is the case were 1t not for
the salutary effect OF miners meetings.
There is no instance on record in the
Yukon where the decision of miners
meeting could be described as laugh
ter OF Justice" On the contrary, many
grievances have been promptly redressed
and no person has ever raised question
as to the justice of the decision rendered.
Gov. Brady quotes the case of Capt.
Healy. The facts are not as he states
them. Capt. Healy discharged the cap
tain of the Weare. his company's river
boat, and refused to give satisfactory rea-
SONS. On appeal to a miners meeting
the captain OF the Weare was given a
verdict, to which he was entitled under
his contract. and was afterwards given
command OF one OF the boats of the
Alaska Commercial Company.
Not having sufficient courts In Alaska,
there Is no other way of obtaining ones
rights except through the instrumental
ity of miners meetings, and any man can
with safety rely upon receiving impartial
justice at such meetings.
IL we have not sufficient courts. Gov.
Brady ought to recommend more. In his
report, Just published, ne says:
THE erection of three additional courts
would meet present and future wants for
many years to come"
At the Chamber OF Commerce meeting
he says:
1--WE should have at least four courts to
off1ciate In case of the sickness or death
of one."
Gov Brady spent week in Juneau on
his way south, but he was very careful
not to reflect upon the miners during his
w. A. BEDDoE.

SUGGESTIONS FOR SMALL MANU-
FACTORIES.

Seattle, Wash, Dec.y %, 1899.
To the Editor: i note with inter-
est your editorial this morning concern
ing Small Manufactures" To my mind
1t is subject most essential to the
future welfare of this growing city. I
note also that the Real Estate Board has
appointed a committee to consider the
matter Of their encouragement. This also
is good, and in the right direction. In
this connection would like to make
few suggestions: First-That the COM
mittee ascertain and have published the
number and kind Of manufactures al
ready operating in this city-their pro-
ducts market, etc. Second-I would sug-
gest that permanent exhibit of home
manufactures be made at the bureau of
information or Chamber of Commerce.
and every inducement made to exhibit
these home products to our citizens for
the wholesome purpose of encouraging
home consumption, thus encouraging and
assisting such home manufactures as we
already have.
When we have undertaken to encourage
and foster our present home establish
ments and Industries, we will have already
made considerable advance in encourag-
ing other enterprises to locate here. Very
respectfully, and for the good work,
o. M. MOORE,
Secretary Puget Sound Bureau of Infor-
