THE PRESIDENT MOURNS.
ms and Secretary Root Expressed Sorrow
at Lawton's Death-Sketch of
His Cereer.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-Secretary
Root and the president each expressed
his profound grief at the confirmation
of the report of the death of the gallant
general.
General Lawton's death was a great
Shock to the officers OF the war depart
ment, to nearly all of whom he was
known personally. Hitherto his luck
in battle had been marvellous. He had
been in hundreds of skirmishes and mid
night attacks. He was regarded as a
man of action and of splendid courage,
but was not considered reckless. He
never exposed his men without due con-
sideration of the risks and the stake.
His men knew this and would unhesi-
tatingly follow his lead under what
seemed to be the most desperate condi-
tons. The Indians came to know him
as the most active. vigilant, wary and
determined of foes, and his pursuit and
capture of Geronimo, the most famous
Apache chieftain, has gone down to his
tory as one of the most remarkable
campaigns ever undertaken with the
small force in hand. General Miles
picked out Lawton to lead the chase
after the Indian chief. and for three
months, day and night. without a
pause, through all sorts of yicissitudes

WHAT WILL GIVE PEACE,
Mabini said Government Liberal, Secure
and Froe Would Preserve 1t
In Philippines.

MANILA, Dec. 20.-Mabini, formerly
a member of the Filipino cabinet, and
considered the strongest and most in.
tellectual Of the insurgents, said to a
correspondent of The Associated Press
at Manila:
1.-THE future peace of the Philippines
depends entirely upon the form OF gov.
eminent the Americans establish. We
are yanquished because we lacked foo0
and munitions and mlSmanaged3 oul
affairs But the spirit of independence
is craving for recognition The indi.
viduality of the Filipino people still
lives. If the government eventually
established here is liberal, secure and
free. the satisfaction and contentment
of the people will result and there will
be no trouble. If it is otherwise the
people will be dissatisfied and another
revolutionary movement will surely oc,
cur sooner or later. Without the PEG.
pies support such a movement is I'M.
possible Everything depends on what
the Americans do.
1.-the subsequent guerrilla warfare
will be easily terminated if the people
do not support it. which they will not
do if they are satisfied. Otherwise it
will be possible to prolong 1t indeh
nitely. 1 believe the Filipino people
should be consulted as to the nature and
details OF the government TO be estab.
hshed. If the war results i'll the recog
milton OF our desires, rights and necessi.
ties as people to be governed, 1T will
not have been In vain
Mabini spoke unoffieially, expressing
his own opinions.
The Panay insurgents were driven out
of the island by General Hughes and
are passing to Negros. where they are
counting trouble. Two hundred recent
arrivals there from Panay ambushed
Lieutenant A. @. Ledyard with a party
OF Is men Of the Sixth infantry. 1t was
in this fight that Lieutenant Leoyard
was killed. falling at the second volley.
Colonel Smith, governor of Negros, has
been obliged to arrest several prominent
natives on charge of conspiracy. The
native municipal constabulary in three
towns recently mutinied and went into
the mountains, but the native soldiery
are reported loyal.
