SEATTLE, Oct Z.-The National Wo

morrow will witness the departure of q
large number of the delegates for the

Coast visiting friends and relatives and
a number will go from here to Southern
California.
The excitement over the denunciatory
resolutions on the national administra-
tton's policy in the Philippines and on the

passed yesterday, had not died out when
today's meeting convened. Many dele

interview to-day, while refusing to al

union made the mistake of its life in
passing the resolution. In order to further
our temperance work we have much to
ask of the administration and our re-
quests will have but little weight when
by our minutes we show that we have no
faith In President Mckinley and the other
official heads of our Government. The
union will live to regret yesterday s
work"

Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-A special to the
World from Washington says: Senor An
tonic Regidor, now in London, will sail
for the United States within three weeks.
and as a fully accredited representative Of
Aguinaldo Will present to President Nc
Kinley new terms for ending hostilities
and reconstructing the government of the
islands. The coming of the representative
is kept close secret by the administra-
tion, but from high authority the World
correspondent learns that these are the
exact terms Aguinaldo desires:
l. Absolute free trade between the United
States and the Philippine Islands, carrying
with 1t the fullest commercial favor between
the two countries.
2. Perfect religious freedom. now exists
under the government Of Aguinaldo, the same
being concession made by him to the wishes
of the United States.
g. Coaling stations for the United States
upon all important islands OF the archipelago,
to be selected by the United States and ceded
outright forever by the Ffltpinos. This would
include Manila
l. Military reservations at Manila, noilo,
Panay, Mindora, Negros, Masbate, Samar,
Mindanao and such other islands as may be de-
termined upon by both Governments
5. The employment OF United States officials
In the customs and all other internal branches
OF the Government. to be selected by the
United States and paid by the Filipino Gov
ernment.
8 The Introduction of the American police
system
7. The establishment of a Judiciary as now
exists the island of Cuba.
S. The reconstruction of the entire Filipino
Government upon lines as nearly consistent
as possible with those prescribed by the con-
stitutton of the United States and adapted to
the requirements OF the natives
3. Recognition of the Filipino Government
as an independent republic under a protec-
torate of the United States.
Senor Regidor will have plenipotentiary
powers to treat with the United States
Government upon all of these points in
order to reach an agreement by which
hostilities may cease.
Senior Regidor will be the most i'm
portant political emissary ever sent to the
United States by the Filipinos. He will
have more power than Agoncillo, who was
summarily driven out of Washington
after presenting a memorial to Congress
which was notable alone for it's indiscreet
attack upon the United States. Senior
Regidor will represent Aguinaldo himself.
Regfdor is said to be a man of great
ability and learning. having had long ex-
perlence in European diplomatic circles.
The Filipino Government has had no
representation here since the banishment
of Agoncillo. But the administration has
been fully informed of the demands Of
Aguinaldo and his advisers through the
dispatches Of General Otis and the secret
service maintained by this Government
in Europe.

GUARDING AMERICAN
INTERESTS IN SAMOA

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25-Until further
informed of the attitude of Great Britain
on the German proposition to partition
the Samoan Islands among the three
powers signatory to the Berlin treaty,
It is probable that Secretary Hay will not
make a categorical reply. Final action
certainly will not be taken by this Gov
ernment until the President and Secre-
tary of State understands the views of
influential Senators with reference to the
proposed disposition of the islands.
In the meantime there is no intention
on the part of the administration to be
pushed into hasty action by rumors of
ing from German sources that for the
surrender of her rights In the islands of
Tutuila and Savaii Germany should be
given possession of Upolu and additional
compensation.
1t was significantly stated to-day that
the President proposed to carefully guard
every interest of the United States in
Tutuila in view of American possession
of the harbor of Pago Pago on that ISL
and by this Government and to REQUIRE
adequate compensation for the surrender
of American claims to the islands of
Upolu and Sava1i.
The authorities have determined that
appointed to settle the Samoan question,
but the matter will be ended by direct
negotiations between the three Govern
ments. It is apparent that these negotia-
tions will consume several months and
as preliminary to them 1t may be de-
cided to put into force some of the rec
concentrations of the Joint High Commits
sion. which some months ago investi-
gated the conditions prevailing in the
islands.

Charges of Perjury and
F0rOeru

CHICO, Oct. 25.-At last some action
has been taken In the notorious will con-
test in the Alfred Fuller estate. The full
history Of this alleged will was given in
The Call some time last summer and, as
was then predicted and intimated, that
sooner or later the principals to the will
would find themselves in deep water. The
will over which so much comment has
been made was in favor of Mrs. Minnie
Houseworth, DR.. ]. E. Rodley and John
Garner being the witnesses. This will
was hatched up some time after the
death of Alfred Fuller, who was never
married and much comment was made
when the same was offered for probate.
The Grand Jury has had the matter un-
der consideration for the past two weeks,
subpenaing many of the most prominent
citizens from Chico before 1t.
This afternoon indictments were issued
for J. Z. Rodley, John Garner and Mrs.
Minnie Houseworth Garner and Rodley
were arrested here, while Mrs. House
worth was arrested in San Francisco.
The charge against them is forgery and
perjury. Unusual interest Is taken in the
case because of the prominence of the
accused. ]. e. Rodley was for the past
