gave notice that the same objection

This afternoon counsel for the State
confessed a motion to quash the cita-

the case against the Commissioners
with the same result. Application was
then made for a new citation.
Judge Stewart urged counsel to ex-

efforts. Former Senator White to-day
expressed desire to do all in his power
TO nave the regiment mustered into the
service Of the United States for work
In Luzon or anywhere else in the Phil
lpplnes If the officers and men in the
regiment really desire to go abroad.
Some time ago. said Senator White.
Colonel Berry said to me that he
would like to effect a reorganization of
the old Seventh Regiment, as nearly
all of the men in the regiment. officers
and privates, desired to re-enIist for
service in the Philippines, and that he
was about to fill vacancies as they
might occur. Colonel Berry requested
that Senator Perkins and myself
should make contingent tender of the
regiment to the War Department. This
was done, as l understand, and Ad-
jutant General H. c. Corbin notified me
to-day that he had received by wire an
offer of the Seventh's services to the
Government, which offer would be duly
considered.
General Corbin, in his telegram, in
forms me thas Major t4eneraf Elwell S.
Otis is entire master of the situation
and that General Otis desires in refer
ence to new troops will be promptly
complied with. The sum and substance
of the situation at present is, in my
opinion, that nothing iss to be done in
the direction of additional forces for
the Philippines until General Otis so
elects.
Personally, while I have never
taken and do not now take the smallest
particle of stock in the Philippine ex-
pansion, l believe, nevertheless, that it
is the duty of the Government to for
ward to Manila large forces if we are
to keep up the present fighting at all.
and it appears to be settled that the
contest is to go on. A small force will
not only bring about casualties to our
selves, but will also tend to prolong the
struggle, to the disadvantage of all
concerned. 1t appears to me fncon-
sistent with the policy of the admins
tration to continue the present unsatis-
factory condition of affairs

WALDECK-ROUSSEAU FAILS
TO FORM A CABINET
POINCARE MAY RESUME THE TASK

DARIS, June 20.-It was announced
Dthis afternoon that Senator Wal
deck-Rousseau had declined the
n task of forming new Cabinet.
This morning the effort he was known
to be making looked most promising.
The Senator had informed President
Loubet that he hoped to complete the
list by tonight, and the newspapers
were so certain that a forecast of the
probable construction of the new Cabi-
net was given, as follows:
NJ. Waldeck- Rousseau, Premier and
Minister of War.
Senator Monis, Minister of Justice.
M de la Nessena, Minister of Marine.
NJ. del Casse, Minister of Foreign Af-
fairs.
M. Camille Krantz, Minister Of Pub
lie Works.
NJ. Cailleaux, Minister Of Finance
M. de Lombre, Minister of Commerce.
NJ. Leygues, Minister of Public In
struction.
NJ Guillaine, Minister Of the Colonies.
NJ. Lepine, Minister of the Interior.
The failure of NJ Waldeck- Rousseau
Camille Krantz to accept the portfolio
of Public Works, which he considered
inferior to the portfolio of War, held
by him in the retiring Cabinet. But
for this the Waldeck- slate
was complete.
NM Poincare and Guillaine made
their acceptance Of office dependent
upon the inclusion of NJ. Krantz. The
latter, besides refusing the portfolio of
Public Works, pressed his disapproval
of certain measures which M. Waldeck-
Rousseau proposed to take against the
generals and colonels who recently in
spired a newspaper propaganda in fa-
vor of the army.
After formal conferences tomorrow
it is expected that M. Loubet will again
summon M. Poincare.
The failure of M. Waldeck- Rousseau
makes the situation exceedingly diff
cult. Both M. Casimir-Perier and Gen
eral Bruguiere declined to enter the
Cabinet. 1t is quite uncertain whom M.

YASH1NGION, June l9.-Ihe FOL
xEi lowing telegram was received
wv at the War Department to-
day:
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, June 19.-Hon.
II. G. Corbin. Adjutant General, Washing
ton: Southern California supports admin
istration in its efforts to suppress the
Philippine insurrection and tenders the
President for immediate service a well
organized and thoroughly disciplined reg
iment of infantry Officers and men ready
to embark as soon as necessary field
equipment can be furnishd.
GEORGE c. PERKINS,
United States Senator
STEPHEN NJ WHITE.
In response to this the following tele-
gram was sent to Senator Perkins at
San Francisco to-day:
Hon. George c. Perkins: Your telegram
offering a regiment received and forward
ed to the President and Secretary of War.
II has not as yet been determined to call
volunteer regiments into service for the
Philippines. Your telegram will have full
consideration should it be decided to raise
additional troops. General Otis is mas
ter of the situation, and his reQuisition
for men and material will be met with
promptnesS He will determine from time
to time the number of men required to
meet the demands of the situation.
II. c. CORBIN. Adjutant General.
The following cablegram has been re-
ceived from General Otis:
MANILA, June 19,-Adjutant General,
Washington: All volunteer organizations
here desire to be mustered out in San
Francisco OTIS.
The cable message Of General Otis
was in response to a specific inquiry
of the War Department based upon it's
declared policy of having each volun
teer organization elect whether it
should be mustered out at San Fran
cisco or it's home station. 1t appears
from General Otis message that the
volunteer organizations prefer to dis
band at San Francisco. in accordance
with the original arrangements of the
War Department. A model camp has
