the previous disagreement which has
so long delayed the report of the COM

port will be signed and delivered to
the president Immediately on his re-
turn from Hot Springs to Washington.
1.-THE members of the commission
had agreed after the elaborate and
thorough consideration they have given
to the subject, and believe that the
last objection to the beginning of the
interoceanic waterway had been swept
aside and that congress may be relied
upon to promptly authorize the canals

AUTONOMY DESIRED.



Manila, May 3.-Autonomy is the
burden of the talk of the Filipinos, and
it IL thought that the kind they wish
for would be little different from the
scheme of an American protectorate
which they talked OF before the war.
Senior Paterno. who has succeeded
the irreconciliable Mabina as president
OF the Filipino so-called cabinet, is a
student and writer of ability He
once drew up a plan of autonomy
under Spain which the Spanish govern
ment promised to adopt, there then
being troublesome rebellion on foot.
The American commissioners, in study
ing the question of the Philippine gov
eminent, have found several good
points in this scheme, Palermo is now
the strong man In Aguinaldo's party.
All the moneyed leaders of the insur-
rection see that 1t is hopeless and are
anxious for peace. Those who want
money think they may pyofit by har-
RAISING the Americans awhile longer.

Ds>ntsd bv the President, While

b. thS Governor General.

Manila, May 24.-Professor Schur
man, head of the United States Philip
pine commission, has submitted the
following written propositions to the
Filipinos:
"While the final decision Is to the
form of government Is in the hands OF
the congress, the president under his
military powers, pending the action OF
congress stands ready to offer the fol-
lowing form of govsrnulent:
"A governor general to be appointed
by the president; cabinet to be ap-
pointed by the governor general; all
the judges to be appointed by the presi-
dent; the heads Of departments and
judges to be either Americans or Fill
Pinos, or both, and also general ad-
vlsory council, its members to be
chosen by the people by form of suf-
frage TO be hereafter carefully deter
mined upon.
1.-The president earnestly desires that
bloodshed cease and that the people of
the Philippines, at an early date, en-
joy the largest measure Of self-govern-
ment compatible with peace and
order.r
The United States commission pre-
pared the scheme and the president
cabled his approval of the form of the
document. The Filipinos have made
no definite proposition except for the
cessation Of hostilities until they can
present the question of peace 10 the
people. Professor Schurman told the
Filipinos they had no means of gath
sring the people together, as the Ameri-
cans control most of the ports. He
also reminded them that liberal form
If government was offered them, and
pointed out that it was better than the
conditions existing under the Spanish
.ule.
Gozaga, president of the Filipino
replied that nothing could
70 worse than Spanish rule and ad-
nitted that the form Of government
was liberal.
The civil members of the Filipino
have decided to cooperate

mission, as the former considered

'osterous, after General Otis refusal

The purpose of the Filipino leaders

when it was captured and surrendered
to Lawton's advance guard.
In conversation with American Off

The delegates add, as their most i'm

he does not so act the Filipino gov
eminent will repudiate him, as four
fifths Of the natives are weary of the
war and desire the early ending of
hostilities.

DAMAGES FOR LYNCHING.
An Indiana Judge Decides That Action
May be Brought.

An Indiana Judge Decides That Action
May be Brought.
Indianapolis, May 19.-Judge Baker
of the United States District court has
rendered a decision in which he holds
that the heirs of Marion Taylor, who
was lynched at Scottsburg several
months ago, had right of action for
damages against the sheriff of the
county and his bondsmen. The decis-
lon was rendered on a motion to over
rule demurrer to the complaint. The
sheriff, James F. Goblin, and his bonds
men were required to answer the COM
plant within ten days. The case,
which is for $4,000 damages, is ex-
pected to come to trial in about thirty
days.
In holding that the sheriff is re-
sponsible for the prisoners in his care.
the court said, in part: ''If the law
imposes duty of care in respect to
animals and goods which he takes into
his possession by virtue of his Office,
why should not the law impose the
duty of care upon him in respect to
human beings who are in his custody
by virtue of his office? Is helpless
prisoner in the custody of sheriff,
less entitled to his care than a bale of
goods or dumb beast? The law is not
subject to any such reproach.
