Alleged Rupture Between tho Ameri-
ems and EiIiplnos.

Madrid, Jan. ga dispatch from
Hong Kong to the Reforma Of this city
says a letter received from the Philip
pine islands announces that the rupture
between the F'ilipinos and Americans
is an accomplished fact, and that the
lives of the Spaniards in the archipela-
go are endangered.
The impartial says: "All the .ntelli-
gence from the Philippine islands shows
that the Americans recognize their in
ability to overcome the insurgents in
the island of Luzon and the Visayas."
Hong Kong, Jan. 25.-The members OF
the Filipino junta have issued a state
ment protesting against the purchase
by the American authorities at Hong
Kong of number of steam launches
for river work in the Philippine islands
as high handed, unnecessary and vex-
atious."
1t is estimated that there are fully
$4,000 Filipinos under armt, and it IS
said that there are nearly so Maxim
guns at Malalos, some of them having
been recently acquired.

GENERAL
Joe Wheeler Explains Why He
Does Not Resign His Seat.
MILITARY POSITION TEMPORARY

The soutbo~n LENDER Thinks the Pres
ident should Not BE Prohibited From
Selecting Mem bers OF Congress For
Special Missions.
Washington. Jan. 25.-The inquiry or
dered by the house OF representatives
as to what members were holding out
side ofiices-originally intended to de-
termine the status Of Major General
Wheeler and other members in the
army-was begun yesterday by the
committee on judiciary. The main in
terest attached to the statement of
General Wheeler, which was formally
prepared, and was in part as follows
IF the extreme view Is taken that
the clause in the constitution is man
datory and that 1t applies to all mem
bers Of congress who accept offices Of
temporary character, which may be
terminated at any moment, then the
government will frequently find itself
embarrassed in selecting men for GER
tain duties. For instance 1t would
have been unfortunate IL the president
had been inhibited from appointing
Senators Davis, Frye and Gray on the
peace commission, Senators Morgan.
Cullom and Representative Hit on the
Hawaiian commission, and Mr.. Dingley
and Senators Fairbanks and Faulkner
on the Canadian commission. 1t would
also have been unfortunate had he been
inhibited from appointing such a dis
tinguished and able man as Senator
Morgan on the arbitration court in
Paris.
THE committee will readily under
stand my embarrassment in a matter
OF this character. There are three other
members of this house who have ac-
cepted military commissions, and some
2S others who have accepted civil po-
sitions. 1t would be very unjust to
them for me to have assumed to decide
this question by attempting to resign,
as Ii has been urged that such action
on my part would be used as an argu-
ment against their right to retain their
| seats in congress. Again, / have re-
ceived continued and urgent appeals
from my constituents not to resign.
In Difference to the views of the dis
tinguished members of congress who
are insisting upon my seat being va
Gated, l have studiously refrained from
taking an active part in the proceed
any congressional pay, mileage or clerk
hire since May 4, notwithstanding that
/ have been compelled to employ clerks
at my own expense to perform routine
duties"

however. and in the first an agreement
was reached to vote on the peace
treaty on Feb. 6, at p. M At the
second Senator Davis presented the
American commissioners reasons for
the acceptance Of the treaty in tn form
f. FhiCh X was finally concluded.
While he admitted that there had been
some diversion Of opinion among pub
licists in the United States as to the
policy of including the Philippines in
the agreement, there had been practi-
caliy no other honorable way out of
the difficulty. As for himself, Mr.. Da-
Wis was willing from the start to ex-
tend our borders so as to include these
islands, because he believed their ac-
QUESTION a most important stride In
the advancement of the American ma
ton, commercially and otherwise. He.
with others, was looking forward to
the prospective partition of the vast
Chinese empire among the European
nations, and he foresaw that If the
United States did not secure a footing
IN the Orient such as they have an OPP
portunity to secure they would be
most effectually and forever shut out
from the vast market.
Those who are familiar with the
Views Of the president say that he has
urged an early vote, upon the ground.
that nothing is to be lost and every
thing is to be gained by prompt &C
ton.
