INSTRUCTIONS TO GEN MILLER.
The governments instructions to
Gen. Miller at Iloilo were to land and
get in communication with the insur-
gents. This is as far as his orders
have gone, except that when he has
established communication with the
insurgent officials and people, he is to
make public the purposes of the Unit
ed States. Not shot is to be fired
by the forces of this country unless
they are attacked, or until further or
ders are given from here. This pro-
gramme as agreed upon between
President Mckinley and Secretary Al
ger several days ago.
SECRETARY ALGER HOPEFUL.
Secretary Alger was at the White
House for some time this afternoon.
He stated in the most emphatic terms
that no alarming news has come
from Gen. Otis, and that he did not
believe shot had been fired so far,
VI ilidU MOulu Dc nIeu. ne Is
confident that Gen. Miller will be able
to handle the situation successfully,
and obtain control of Iloilo without
bloOdshed. He is of opinion that the
insurgents have been so long imposed
upon that they are naturally sus-
picious, and fear the worst if they
surrender their strongholds into the
hands of the United States.
A GENTLE POLICY.
The policy to be adopted is gentle
one. Persuasion will be used before
powder. That will be the last resort,
and Secretary Alger is optimistic in
his views that it will never be neces-
sary. The president, it is said, also
views the situation in a similarly hope
full manner. He believes that the Fill
pinos will become less suspicious when
they understand more fully the inten-
tiOns of this country. He believes

THEY WANT TO TELL

Women VINO have suffered severely
and been relieved of their ills by Mrs

FORCE OF HABIT.
He Was Used to Standing in street
Cars and He Grabbed for
the Straps.

1t was at the Himbish- Mimmikin wed
ding reception.
The crush was terrible.
People With tender feet uttered alf-sup-
pressed groans here and there, and weak
women would have tainted if there had been
any hope that fainting would have done the
least good.
Ever and anon Burbank would make a
frantic grab for something above his head,
and then looked disappointed.
Lambert watched him reach up half a
dozen times, and then edged his way
through the crowd to where his friend
was being jostled about.
just as he got there somebody gave a
lurGh somewhere, and the people began
to sway about as they do in crowds where
there are nervous or mischevous persons
who insist on pushing.
Burbank was almost carried off his feet,
and he made a frantic effort to grasp the
invisible something that he had previously
endeavored to find above his head.
"See here, old man." exclaimed Lambert,
what are YOU trying to find up there?
Burbank gave a start, as if he had just
been aroused from a trance, looked sheep
ishly at his friend, and then replied:
Its force of habit. This crowd makes me
think. every little while, that I'm in d street
car, and, involuntarily, I reach for the strap,
whenever the people begin to lurch. =

WRECK ON THE LEHIGH.
Zen People Reported Killed Near Bound
BROOK, y. j., aud More Than
Twenty Injured.

! New York. Jan. "a dispatch from
Eouud Brook. y. J., says that two
trains on the Lchigh Valley railroad
have been wrecked near her, and that
| ten persons were killed. More than
| twenty are said 10 be injured. The re-
ports says that one OF the trains was
the Black Diamond express.
\ dispatch received from Bound
Brook says that - persons had been
Iillcd in the wreck. and from 80 to As
injured. twenty-five OF the injured
were taken to NIuhlenburg hospital,
IHainfieId. y. j.. and the others were
taken tC Elizabeth, y. j.
The collision is reported to have
been between local train and the
Black Diamond express. The local was
bound from Bound Brook for Jersey
City. while the Black Diamond ex-
press WAS on its way to Buffalo.
Fire from the locomotives commu-
nicated TO the cars nearby and the
horror Of incarceration of those caught
under the wreck was threatened.
The forward car of the train was
split cPen and every soul in it was
either killed or manned. Bodies were
lying in every direction, two or three
piled on top of each other in places.
Limbs were torn from the trunks, of
some passengers and hurled yards
away.

steel of one of the engines could be

The Situation Admitted to be Critical, but
Gentle Policy VIII be Pursued
by the Government.

Washington, Jan. "a great deal
of reticence is exhibited at the war de-
partment relative to the state of af-
fairs at IlOilO. 1t is admitted that
Gen. Otis has reported to the depart
ment the facts that were reported to
him in turn by Gen. Miller, but all
that can be gathered as to the nature
of the communication is that it goes
to confirm the press reports as to the
attitude of the insurgents. There are
excellent reasons why the officials at
the war department should at this
stage maintain secrecy as to the in
structions governing the movement of
troops in the Philippines.
ADMITTED TO BE CRITICAL.
The situation is admitted to be criti-
cal. but not hopeless by any means,
and it is extremely desirable that the
danger of a rupture shall not be in
creased by inf1ammatory publications,
which powerfully effect the eXcitable
Filipinos. 1t is believed that Gen. Otis
is framing a plan of campaign which
will result in the extension of his con-
troll over the island of Panay at least,
without actual hostilities, or. if it
must come to warfare, then with the
least possible exposure of the Ameri-
can troops.
