Views of Philippine Commission to

Washington. Nov. 1.-The members of
the Philippine commission. Admiral Dew
ey,. Professors Schurman and Worcester
ard Colonel DENLY. will make a prelim-
mary report TO the president before the
and of this week. ard IL is understood
the report viii be Immediately given to
the public This report will be prepared
at the request OF the president as result
of a conference between the president and
the commission at the White House.
The president personally summoned the
commissioners and an hour was spent in
consultation, during which he explained
the points ne desired covered in the pre-
liminary report IL may be weeks. pos
sibly months, before the complete report
is ready.
Professor Schurman. who is president
of the commission, said after the members
left the White House. that the report to
be made this week would cover certain
phases of the situation which the presi-
dent desired cleared up at this time.
When asked If the report would touch up
on the so-called Sulu treaty (the argu-
ment between General Bates and the Sui
tan of Suiu). Professor Schurman replied
in the negative
That was purely a military arrange
msnt.' said he. with which the commits
sion had nothing to do"
Secretary Hay and Secretary Root were
present at the conference
The significant feature of today's con-
ference was the revelation that the COM
mission is absolutely unanimous in its
view respecting tie proper line of treat

TREASURE FROM ALASKA.
Steamer Roanoke Arrives at Seattle
With $1,5OO,OOO.

Seattle. Wash, Nov. 1.-The treasure
ship Roanoke, which II ached here six
teen days from ST. Michael and eleven
days from Cape Nome this morning,
brings the first story of the death of
several New Workers, members of an
Alaska prospecting company.
The dead are: Mr.. and Mrs. Emil
kuhner. oscar Becker and a man whose
name is unknown. Becker's body was
washed on the beach at st. Michael
island, and later was found an over
turned steamer and a scow loaded with
machinery, which represents the as
sets of the company. Two survivors
are John Becker and Theo Diederick.
The-Roanoke had aboard, according
to her owners. drafts and dust from
Cape Nome amounting to 81. 500 600. The
principal portion of this is represented
by drafts held by John Brynteson, ia
fet Linderberg, p. H. Anderson and c.
w. A. Killman, four of the original To-
Gators of the camp. There were fully
200 others on board with dust valued at
from $500 to $4,000 each. a large portion
of the same being beach dust
The principal holdings are about as
follows: Linderberg and Brynteson,
$500 900; j. r. Anderson. 100000; c. w.
$4,000; F. Schow, 100000; H. C. Will
kinson, $4,000.
Owing to the alleged impurity of the
water at Nome, typhoid fever was quite
general at the time the Roanoke left,
and twelve deaths had occurred. Six
of the patients who were sufficiently
we'll to travel came down on the Roam
oke one of the big state rooms having
been fixed up as temporary hospital.

richest men, was among the unfortu-
Mates

BRITISH FOUGHT TILL
POWDER WAS ALL GONE
Continued from page -

the column from the impossible situa-
ton into which he had thrust it,
draws a sad picture of the men "hoping
for relief and then realizing with Bit
terness OF heart that someone had
blundered; that they had been forgot
ten by their general and his staff, and
that nothing was left but surrender
and Imprisonment at Pretoria until the
end of the war"
The Daily Chronicle says: at is evil
dent that somebody Numbered, but
more details are required before the
blame can be apportioned."
The Times says: A careful calcula-
ton of the British losses in all the en-
gagements since the outbreak of hos
tilities. excluding the casualties among
the non-commissioned officers. and men
in Mondays disaster at Ladysmith,
which are thus far unknown here, gives
a total of GIG; to which probably 1920
will be added when the details regard
ing the Ladysmith reverse are received.
This total is made up as follows: Off
GERS 1873, eighteen being killed. sixty one
wounded and fifty-three captured; men
7SS, being 1871 killed, 492 wounded and ia
captured.
The Times further says: The dangers
of Sir George Whites plans are patent
even to civilians, but it is not impossible
that the Cape boys in charge of the
mountain battery have been tempered
with by the Beers. Otherwise such
large and comprehensive stampede is
very extraordinary occurrence from
such a slight cause.
General Whites movements, so far
as it can be understood from present
information is open to criticism, espec-
tally in the complete absence of COM
munication with the main body.
The morning papers comment with
the greatest satisfaction upon Canada's
suggestion regarding the sending of
second contingent to South Africa.

PUBLIC MEN SPEAK.
Refer to the Disaster at Ladysmith
and Predict Success.

London, Nov Lord George Hamil-
ton, secretary of state for India, speak
ing at Ealing tbs evening resardi- & the
situation IN South Africa, said:
Our ultimate victory is certain, and
when the terms which we, as victors,
will propose to the vanquished are
known, foreign nations will see that the
main cause which has forced us to en-
bark upon this conflict Is not desire
of peouniary profit or of territorial ag-
grandiZement. but determination to
emancipate a vast territory for the
common benefit of mankind from an
ignoble and degrading tyranny"
The Earl of Selbourne. Under secre-
tary of state for the colonies, speaking
at Dumfries, said:
1T is not the fault of the statesmen
of the Transvaal that we have not be-
come embroiled with some European
power. If hcstilitics had not come
when they did they would have come
at some moment of national danger and
difficulty"
Baron Tweedmouth, former parlsa-
mentary secretary to the treasury.
speaking at Edinburgh. said:
THE public mind has not been 50
moved since the news of the dreadful
events CT the Indian mutiny We IN
fortunately are warning with a nation
of the same stock and religion as our
selves At this crisis all hearts go cut
to the brave Beers and to the small
British army in Natal. which, against
fearful odds. has performed magnifi-
cent feats of valor. 1t is not the time
to call our opponents names or to utter
cries of vengeance, but to back up Fer
niajesty's ministers who have a fearful.
yes. an awful responsibility upon their
shoulders"
The Earl Of Darlington, liberal, speak
ing at buckingham, gave expression to
virtually the same convictions. The
Earl of Lonsda1e. honorary colonel of
the Third battalion, border regiment,
at a banquet this evening at White
haven, declared his confidence in Gen
eral White. the British commander in
Natal, and predicted a grand reviewsin
Pretoria next March. Referring to EN-
peror Williams celebrated telegram to
President Kruger at the time of the
failure of the Jameson raid, Lord Lois
dale said:
IF his majesty's dispatch had been
rightly understood, it would have had a
totally different effect. 1t was sent
with view of allaying two sores. 1T
was not antagonistic to Great Britain.
1 have the pleasure to know the vieSxs
of the German emperor, and they are in
accordance with the views of Eng
land -
