CABINET MEETING.
More Than Two Hours Devoted to
the Conference.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4-The cabinet
was in session for more than two hours
today, and a variety of matters which
have accumulated since the president s
absence were discussed. 1t was Secre-
tary Roots first attendance the other
members present being Secretaries Hay,
Gage, Hitchcock and Wilson. President
Schurman, of the Philippine commission,
was also present by invitation and made
a comprehensive statement of the situa-
ton on the islands.
1t is understood that within the next
two or three days he will make a state
ment to the press which will cover his
observations on the islands and later will
make a formal report to the president,
covering the subject in detail This re-
port, however, will not be made until the
other members of the commission arrive
in Washington and not until after Ad-
miral Dewey's return. 1t is understood
that President Schurman takes a hope
full view of the situation in the Philip
pines and has no doubt that, with our
increased forces, we will be able to make
comparatively short work of Aguinaldo
and the insurgent forces He stated that,
although Aguinaldo is the leader of a
very strong faction of the natives, he
does not by any means fairly represent
the entire poulation, a considerable num-
Der appearing to be more or less indiffer-
ent as to the outcome Of the inSurrection.
Although the work of the anti-imperial-
list league has had no considerable inf1u-
ence among the soldiers In our army, Mr..
Schurman said 1t certainly had given
great encouragement to Aguinaldo and
his followers

flee, where only Picquart, Lauth,, Gribe
lin or myself could have revealed them
/ am sure that neither Lauth, Gribelir
nor myself has been so indiscreet You
would do well to discover who is re-
sponsible"
NJ Temps detailed successive steps In
his Investigations showing how Lieut.
Col Henry and Commandant Lauth had
brought pressure to bear to make him
impicate Col. Picquart and their angry
threats when witness report did not suit
them. They accused the witness of be-
ing influenced by some one.
Replying to M. Demange. M. Tomps
said he had only once mixed up Ester
hazy in connection with the report. Es-
terhazy had been seen at foreign
agents residence, which had two exits
and had other suspicious relations. Wit
ness had found confederation of this.
Replying to NJ Labor, M. Temps further
detailed Lieut. Col Henry's pressure
upon him. with a view to having the
communication of the bordereau to the
Matin ascribed to Lieut.. Col. P.cquart
Witness did not know If the leakage
at the war office continued after Drey-
fus left.
Commandant Lauth reappeared with
the view of refuting the evidence OF M
Temps. Lauth declared that no one IN
the statistical section dreamed OF sus-
pecting Picquart when the inquiry was
ordered as to how the Matin secured the
bordereau Suspicion attached rather to
a civilian clerk, who was on frlendiy
terms with Temps.
After Commissary Temps had replied
the court retired to deliberate on the
subject of holding another secret session
When the members of the court re-
turned Col Jouaust announced lna'

morrow morning.

BETTER THAN Ey Err.
Such rs Reported of River Business
the Present Season.

Such rs Reported of River Business
the Present Season.
River business on the upper Mississippi
this summer has been better than ever
before. The annual report Of the Dla-
mond 10 line will show large increase
in passenger receipts and correspond
ing increase, though not as great, In
freight receipts. Passenger travel on the
river began early this season and has
continued heavy without interm1ssion
ever since the first boat left st. Paul for
the lower river. The traffic between In
termediate points has been excellent and
the railroad competition has hardly been
felt. The river season gives different
mode of outing from the rail lines, and
each season sees an increase in the num-
Der of people taking to the water route.
Steamboat men predict that within the
next five years the business out OF Ut.
Paul will double, and new line OF steam
ers be made necessary. The Diamond 10
officials are already planning on increased
accommodation for next season, and 1t is
not improbable that the service In and out
of the port of st. Paul may be increased
by one more boat week. The travel
at present justifies the prediction that
such an increase will be necessary.

Reports have come from the West dur
Ing the past three weeks that a rival line
! to the coast would be built to compete
with the Canadian Pacific. The new line
is reported to be already under way,
though railroad men in st. Paul, posted
OH the prevailing situation in the West,
are inclined to doubt 1t. The rumors
started with operations which have been
commenced 10 defect the Ontario &
Rainy River road to a more southerly
course, in order to obtain easier grades.
The new road, If built, will run through
the northern part of the state, the On
tario & Rainy River, the projected Win
nipeg & Southwestern, from the Manitoba
capital to the Lake Of the Woods, form
ing part of the system.
There is but little doubt that there
are men who would take up such prop
os1tion as suggested, and it Is reported
that several interests will back the new
road, MeKensie & Mann, the Manitoba
railroad capitalists, being mentioned as
parties who are pushing the project. The
roads mentioned are projected by OF I'M
der the control of this firm, and 1t would
be comparatively easy to float bonds SUI
ficient to build the remainder of the line,
with what connections are already in
sight.
It is stated that the Northern Pacific
from Portage la Prairie to Winnipeg will
be used as link in. the new system, with
the Manitoba & Northwestern west. This
G11n C
from Winnipeg and from its terminus,
easy construction could be. obtained to
Edmonton, and thence to the Yeiiowhead
pass in the Rockies, from which point Il
new corpora ton, said to be dominated by
the Mckenzie interests, is proposing to
build to Fort Simpson, on the Pacific
coast. This port; is a considerable dis
lance north of Vancouver and would have
little trouble in, commanding the trade
of the extreme north coast.
The new system will, naturally, need
Eastern connections, in ORDER to give the
canadian Pacific fight. These, 1t is
claimed. will be furnished by Canadian
! lines and by lake steamers on Lake Su-
perlor.
Whether this scheme of a transconti-
mental road will be carried out Is not
certainty. Itdmay be nothing more than
the dream of some enthusiast who desires
to see the monopoly Of the Canadian Pa
cifc broken. One thing Is certain, how
ever: There will be new and 1ndepend-
ent route between Port Arthur and VIM
nipeg, which, will naturally be extended
westward from that point into the wheat
region This will mean reduced rre1ght
rates between Manitoba and the East.
I.0@v ly1f
and Koochiehing, where the Rainy River
road will dip into this state before er-
fecting connection with the Winnipeg
& Southeastern, a large part of the Man
itoba trade could be turned in this direc-
ton.

HAS NOT RESIGNED.
Chief Justice Chambers Expects to
Return to Samoa.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4-Chief JUS
tice Chambers, of Samoa, is here to con-
fer with officials and submit his report
to the three powers represented in Sa-
moa.
While avoiding a discussion Of pend
ing diplomatic questions Judge Cham.
bers, when seen today, spoke in an In
teresting manner on some of the general
conditions in Samoa and also cleared up
some misapprehensions as to his own
status and plans. Notwithstanding re-
ports Of his resignation, Judge Chambers
states that he has not resigned, but, on
the contrary, that he still holds the po-
sition of chief justice of Samoa. In his
position, moreover, he is sustained by the
state department, which is acting on the
theory that he is in full possession Of
the office, although temporarily absent.
He also pointed out that it has been
frequently stated that he comes to Wash
ington to report to the state department.
whereas he was chosen chief Justice
by all three governments-the United
States, Great Britain and Germany-and
his reports are made in triplicate to all
of them. 1t was this, he is inclined to
think, which led to some exception be-
ing taken by one Of the signatoFy
powers.

NEW DEPENDENCIES.
President VIII Soon Announce q
Definite Policy.


WASHINGTON, Sept 4.-There is good
authority for the statement that the pres
ident has returned to Washington with
these general ideas uppermost in his mind
as to his future course in relation to the
new dependencies:
The Philippines-Civil government by
three commissioners to supplant military
rule Immediately after the rebellion Is
crushed
Cuba-Continued military control until
1t is determined by means of a general
election whether the inhabitants want in
dependence or annexation. If independ-
ence, the new government elected will
be recognized by the United States, and
be given encouragement and every oppor-
tunity to establish it's stability. If an
nexation, the president will be governed
by the sentiment of American citizens as
1t may then exist
Porto Rico-Civil government of the
territorial form, similar to that which
prevails in Arizona.
Observation-Disclosures form of govern
ment, as recommended by the Hawaiian
commission, and as provided for in a
measure now pending in congress.
Some weeks will elapse before the pres
ident settles down to the actual prepara-
ton Of his message, but he will imme-
diately commence discussion Of the de-
tails Of important questions with the
members Of his cabinet. Future discus
sions with his cabinet may change some
what the presidents views as to the form
of civil government best suited to meet
the Philippine situation, but at present
the commission idea predominates

FORT SMELLING PLANS.
Post to Be Headquarters for Men
Returning From Philippines.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4-Fort Smelling
is soon to become one of the most i'm
portant military posts in the country.
The Minnesota military reservation is
to be greatly improved, and the extern
sive work that has already been ordered
by the war department, and is, perhaps.
now under way, Is but an earnest Of
what is to follow. The post will be a
general headquarters for returning troops
from the Philippines, and plans are being
considered for a considerable extension
of the barracks.

Presidents October Trip to Termi-

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-Senator Car
ter, of Montana, who has just returned
from European trip, was at the White
house, today, and. after conference
with the president, stated that Mr.. Nc
Kinley would be compelled to give up his
contemplated trip through the West. He
would attend the ceremonies attending
the laying of the corner stone at the Chi
cago postoffice building, in October, but
1t was altogether improbable that he
would get further west than Chicago.
