President VIII send Them TO the senA
ate Next Week.
Washington Jan. 2S.--The senate
continued the consideration of the
peace treaty i'm executive session yes
terday. the doors being closed for al
most three hours. Senator Frye, a
member of the Paris peace commits
sion, and naturally strong friend Of
the treaty, held the attention Of the
senate during the greater part Of this
time Constructivey he occupied the
floor during the entire session, but he
was frequently interrupted by other
senator's Most of these Interruptions
came in the way Of questions, but
some of them took the form of speech
es. This was notably the case with
Senator Berrys Interruptions. He
spoke for some time, and in doing so
denounced the treaty in severe terms
Senators Mason and Caffrey asked
many questions.
Senator Frye devoted himself largely
to an explanation of the proceedings OF
the commission. reading literally from
the record as already printed but stop
ping as he proceeded to explain the
quotations which he made. He had
not proceeded far when he was asked
il the president had not originally in
structed the commission to only insist
urul securing coaling station in the
Philippine group. To this Mr.. Frye re-
pl ed that he did not feel at liberty to
give his Interpretation of the presi-
dents Instructions but II was not nee
essary that he should do so, as the
president had. he said, determined to
comply partially at least with the SEN
ate's request for the documents on
file bearing upon the negotiation Of the
treaty, and Mr.. Frye said he felt JUS
titled in assuring the senate that the
papers would be received not later than
Monday.
one senator reminded him of the
| representations of Agunaldo's Ameri-
can agent Agoncillo, and asked If he
meant to force the Philippine people to
actual hostiites to which Mr.. Frye re-
torted that it was the opposition which
was forcing a continuance of the state
of war and which would be responsible
for hostilities if they shouA' occur

Terrible Experience OF Shipwrecked
sailors in New Guinea.

Terrible Experience OF Shipwrecked
sailors in New Guinea.
Vancouver, b. c., Jan. 2S.--After es-
Gaping death by drowning IL of the
crew of the ship Manbare were cap
tured and eaten by cannibals of New
Guinea. The Manbare was bound for
Sydney, Australia, when it was caught
in the terrible gale Of December. Near
Cape Nelson it began to sink. The
crew, Is altogether left the vessel in
two boats and soon became separated.
One boat containing II men was
finally thrown ashore ten miles from
the cape. The sailors were seized by
natives from the interior and hurried
off to the village of the chief One
man, James Greene, escaped.
The sailors were stripped and bound
and killed, one each day. A wild orgie
was participated in by at least a hun
dred savages, who had gathered for the
feast. In several cases the sailors were
tortured by the old women and chill
dren of the tribe. The eyes of one
were gouged out. The doomed men
stoically watched the elaborate prepa-
rations for their death.
In most cases the men were beheaded,
their heads being stuck on poles and
paraded before the men who were to
suffer the same fate.
Greene was rescued by a steamer
after tramping without food a day and
| night to reach the coast. The scenes
of horror he had witnessed turned his

ARMY REORGANIZATION BILL.


Military Committee Makes Conces-

Washington, Jan. 2S.-The opposi-
tion to the army reorganization bill
on the Republican, side of the house
has become so strong that yesterday
Chairman HUI of the military affairs
committee. decided IL would be wise
to abandon the idea Of providing
directly Tor a regular army Of 100000

The Citizens Ticket.

Those of our citizens who affiliate
themselves with the Citizens party, on
Thursday placed in nomination can
didates for borough and ward offices,
and the harmonious spirit evidenced
in the selection of the various nom
inees, and the maguanimity displayed
by the defeated candid ties, is a har-
binger of success at the polls in Feb
ruary The men who have secured
denomination have been tried and
not found wanting, and we feel as
sured that the new men will prove
themselves faithful guardians of the
peoples interests.
There are but two borough Offices
to be filed this year-that of High
Constable and Borough Auditor. The
Citizens nominees for these positions
are in every way capable for the
duties of the respective positions
The High Constable has too long
been looked upon as a mere pensioner,
drawing his pay and giving no equi-
valent therefor. Mr. Hopkins is in
no way incapacitated for the duties
of the position, and will faithfully
perform them. Can as much be said
of his Democratic opponent2
The people have come to look upon
the position of Auditoras one of much
Importance. We violate no conf
dence in saying that the young
man" who has been nominated in op-
position to Mr.. Watkins will find that
the people demand a person of ma
ture years, who has at least some
knowledge of the duties of the office
to which he aspires, and thus avoid
the necessity, as in the past, of secur
ing some one other than the regularly
elected Auditors to do the work. Mr.
Watkins is fully conversant with the
duties and is capable of performing
them.
The Citizens nominees for Counci
and School Board, of whom we vii
speak at more length as the campaign
progresses, are exceptionally strong
candidates, and they will no doub
receive the undivided support of thei
party voters Hundreds Of Demo
Gratis this Spring will vote for TIN
Citizens candidates, as rebuke to on
or two self-assumed leaders in thei
party, who have forced themselve
upon the Democracy in the hope O
pecuniary reward and whose supper
of the party is actuated solely iron
mercenary motives.
The Democracy of this town hav
any number of able and, we nigh
add, brilliant leaders, under who's
management the party has been in
variably successful, but even thes
men revolt against the mercinary iii
terlopersn referred to above, and, a
a consequence, are lukewarm in thei
support For these and otherreason
the opposition to the Citizens nom
nees is ANYTHING but a harmoniou
family, and the success Of the Cit
zens ticket is practically assured

the following statement concerning a
published report that the government
had Intercepted dispatches from him
to Aguinaldo in which he advised that
the Fnipnos would have to fight for
their independence, and that now was
the time to act: THE statement is
absolutely false, and Is calculated to
excite feeling and animosity in this
country and to prejudice the Philippine
cause. No such telegram has ever been
sent by me, ard for that reason no
such telegram could have been inter
cepted."
