CARING FOR THE SOLDIERS,
Experiences of an Army Nurse in the
PhiIipDines

Marjorie Henshaw, one of the army
nurses in the Philippines, has written let
ter to friend in this city, under date of
Manila, April &c, which is, in part, as fol-
lows:
The rush has been simply continuous
since our arrival, and, until the coming Of
the Sheridan with Miss Gladwin there was
no let up whatever in the work of supervis-
ing the nurses at the hospitals, housekeep-
ing of nurses home, dispensing Red Cross
supplies and answering emergency calls to
officers wives sick in their homes 1t has
been go, go, from early morning till late
at night with many a night call besides.
The nurses were needed. every one, in the
hospitals from 1870 am. till 6 pm, thus
leaving no one available for all outside and
extra work but myself. In addition, Off
cials had to be interviewed on all occasions
Il did not call for more nurses because
the Sheridan had not yet arrived. Col.
Woodruff was expected in Manila every day
and reorganization in the hospitals a
result OF his advent. Despite every difficult
ty, | am glad to say we are doing a work
that each member of an auxiliary will feel
proud of and will compensate for the effort
and expense. To begin with, on the Grant
552 cases were cared for by the nurses dur
ing the trip, together with like number on
the other transports. In Manila We began
work in the hospitals on arrival In the
large General Hospital auxiliary nurses are
III tic WdFuS receiving tile wound
ed from the firing line, and one has charge
of the officers ward (twenty-seven beds) at
same In the Second Reserve excellent
service is being rendered in caring for ty-
phold and chronic cases. have free rein
to go through the hospitals and dispense
the good things provided by auxiliaries
(where they are needed1, thus covering a
very large field and enjoying happy and
satisfactory relationship with surgeons in
charge of hospitals.
Useless to report, since we left New
nrly fs,n in fn1t Re tI,a L.
to this moment our supplies have proved
incalculable. The patients enjoy a suf-
ficiency of ice and every special delicacy that
can be made or procured through our funds.
1T is right hard work. and while Manila
in many ways might be an ideal place to
live in, it is very hard place to work in.''

OUR DUTY IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Bishop ThOburn Talks of the Situa-
tiOn in the East.

Bishop J. NJ. Thoburn of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, who has spent forty
years as a missionary, mostly in India, is
back at his home in Cincinnati. The bishop
spent some time in Manila in March last,
and was an intelligent observer of events.
He says there is no doubt that the out
was intended by Filipino leaders to include
a general massacre in the city of Manila
He cited in proof of this the testimony of
two Filipino servants, who We're summoned
to service in the army by Aguinaldo and
who dared not disobey, but who warned
their American employers to keep within
doors that night, as orders had been given
to kill all Europeans found on the streets.
The whole history of the present Philip
pine situation showed such a natural ami
logical, and even inevitable, course of
events that the United States is bound to
assert its authority there. Anarchy and
assassination, he declares would follow the
withdrawal of the United States forces.
The bishop declines to discuss the subject
from the standpoint of American politics,
States should shrink from giving up her eX-
elusive policy and hesitate to take her
place among the nations when the duty is
so manifestly thrust upon her. If China
falls to pieces, as nearly all well-informed
people believe she will, it would be unwise,
European nations have right to settle the
destiny of that great empire without any
reference to America.
The United States must Inevitably be-
come the dominating naval power of the
Pacific ocean, and If such a future is in
an important portion of the coast line of
eastern Asia,

AFFAIRS IN GUATEMALA.
Hints of Foreign Action Involving
Another COrinto Affair.

The State Department is watching with
anxiety the developments in Guatemala. 1t
is premature to say that the decision has
been reached to send the Philadelphia from
San Francisco down to that country, and it
may be that the presence of the gunboat
Vixen on the east coast will be regarded as
sufficient for the present But there are
hints of foreign action that might involve
repetition of the Corinto incident and in
that case it would undoubtedly be deemed
necessary by our government to have a
stronger naval represen tation at the seat
of trouble.
II is said at the State Department that
the financial conditions in Guatemala, with
impending reputation, threaten severe
loss to American citizens. But so far our
government has not consented to take any
joint action with England. Germany or any
other nation to bring pressure to bear upon
the disturbed republic of Guatemala.
1t is problematical what attitude will be
adopted by our government in case an at
tempt should be made by European govern
ments to seize custom houses in Guate-
mala to collect for bond holders. In the
case of the Corinto landing a question of
outraged national honor was involved. an
indemnity having been demanded by Great
Britain for the ill-treatment of her consular
officers. But our government has hereto
fore, and notably in Mr.. Blanes time,
leaned to the belief that the holders of gov
ernment bonds being individuals, took their
Doiuo SUBJECT TO the V1clSSltuQeS ana
chances of reputation, the prices being
regulated by the risks incurred. This view
would not seem to admit of the right of a
European government to make the failure
to collect such individual debts sufficient
cause for hostile landing on American
soil. This view, of course, Is subject to a
modification, especially as some of our own
citizens are believed to be interested in pre-
venting the reputation of the Guatemalan
bonds, so that a new construction of inter-
national law on that point may be ex-
pected If the financial conditions in Guate-
mala are not sneedilv hatterad

GLAD TO GET HOME.
Warm Welcome Extended to the
Brave Oregon Volunteers.

The United States transports Newport
and Oh4o, bearing the Oregon Volunteer
Regiment $rom Manila, arrived at San
Francisco Wednesday night. The vessels
were sighted early in the afternoon, and
soon the shrieking Of steam whistles, the
changing of bells and the firing of cannon
announced that the first batch of returning
volunteers from Manila We're nearing the
shores of California. Within a few minutes
the streets We're thronged with people wend-
ing their way to the docks and to the
heights overlooking the bay, intent upon
catching glimpse of the transports as they
steamed up the harbor under the escort of
a score of vessels, which had been made
ready for the arrival of the steamers.
The roofs of the warehouses were crowded
with people, and from scores of fagp0leS
streamed the stars and stripes. Steamers.
tugs, yachts and even small rowbOats We're
scon making their way as fast as possible
toward the Golden Gate. The reception
committees boarded the tugboats Sea Queen
and Governor Irwin and headed for the
ocean. On board the Irwin were the harbor
commissioners, the officials of the National
Guard of California and Gov. Geer of Ore
gon and his staff. On the Sea Queen were
the representatives of the press the band
furnished by Mayor Phelan, and many in
vited guests. The revenue cutter Golden
Gate bearing federal officials, was soon un-
der way, ana Sne was joined Dy the 1euerdi
quarantine boat from Angel Island. Then
there were boats at the disposal of the Red
Cross and other societies, and many char
tered by private parties.
AS the transports slowly steamed up the
harbor the soldiers gathered in excited
groups on deck and some climbed into the
rigging, where they shouted and cheered
like mad. The band on the Sea Queen
played patriotic airs, and the screaming of
many steam sirens created a pandemonium
The health officials boarded the vessels,
which changed their course toward the
quarantine stations, where the doctor will
make a thorough examination of the men.
1t is yet undecided whether the Oregon vol
unteers will be allowed to land in San
