SENATOR ALLISON
ON PHILIPPINES
PRESIDENT DOING HIS DUTY
Could Not Withdraw Army and Navy
If He kiShed-- Congress Alone
Has Power.

NEW YORK. Nov. 1.-Senator ALI
son. OF Iowa, discussing matters in the
Philippines in the forthcoming issue
OF the Independent will say:
1t does not seen to me that there can
be two sides to the question OF what
is our present duty in the Philippines.
BY our treaty with Spain and with the
exchange Of ratfcations OF the treaty,
these islands became ours. Our title to
them is clear and unquestionable under
our constitution and under the law and
usages Of nations, The insurrection
there against our authority began after
the treaty was signed at Paris and con-
tinues TO this time. our duty requires
us to suppress this instruction and to
establish peace and order
with the restoration of order there
I take it for granted that congress will
provide government for the people OF
the Islands in the spirit OF liberty and
justice and with a view to their highest
possible civilization. Heretofore when
possessions have been acquired by the
United States, congress dealt with the
people residing in those territories in
the spirit of liberty and justice, which
prevails in our constitution and our
laws, and l have no reason to give or
even suspect that future congresses will
not make such rules and regulations for
these inhabitants as will provide for
them the largest measures of liberty
possible for them as well as the larg-
est local participation in the govern
ment with the situation there under our
sovereignty and under our flag.
SO far as can see the only practical
alternative to this is tfe abandonment
Of the islands, the withdrawal Of our
troops and the withdrawal Of our navy
as we'll
The president has no power TO direct
this, as he cannot ALLEVIATE territory ac-
quired. Congress can do so by law and
will soon be in session and those who
think we should surrender what we
have gained there and withdraw our
army and navy will have an opportun-
ity Of testing lhe sense OF congress by
Offering propositions to that end"

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY.
Found TO be Just the Thing to Adopt
in Hawaiian Islands.

NEW YORK. Nov. 1-Telegraphic
communications by signor Marcom's
wireless system is to be established be-
tween five Of the Hawaiian islands by
company Of Americans.
Frederick J. Cross, Of the firm Of Cat
ton. Neill & Co. engineers Of Honlulu,
who is now IN this city, has closed a
contract for the American company in
Hawaii.
Although many engineers regarded
the connection Of the five islands by
cable as lmpracticable, because Of coral
reefs, on which a cable is soon covered
with coral growth, breaks being fire.
oucnt and repairs extremely difficult, the
American company had about decided
to attempt it, as the needs Of tele-
graphic communication has grown most
urgent Then they heard OF signor
Marconi's achievements and Mr.. Cross
was sent 10 this country to view the
workings Of his system. He found that
the Marcon system would cost much
less and be more practicable in many
ways than a cable.
Regular telegraph business viii be
done by the company installing the
wireless system. The distances over
which communication viii be estab-
lished viii vary from eight to sixty-one
miles.

NEW YORK. Nov. IA special to
the Herald from Washington says:
So far as can be learned nothing is
known in Washington of the reported
offer of Great Britain to cede the Gill
bert islands and the Solomon islands, in
the Pacific 10 Germany.
Negotiations for the settlement of the
Samoan questions have reached a stage
where Great Britain is called upon to
make proposition Of some kind, and
the German foreign office may have
been sounded to learn whether Ger
many would be willing TO turn over her
interest in Samoa to Great Britain in
return for the Gilbert and Solomon
islands.
II the British soreign office has this
bargain in view, it would have to be
approved by the United States as the
third power interested in the Samoan
islands before it could be formally
agreed to by Great Britain and Ger
many.
