They VIII lie Allowed to Haye Almost

WASHINGTON, May 2.-The state
department has received a long report
by cable from President Schurman of
the Philippine commission of the con-
ference that was held at Manila Sat
urday, between the members of the
commission and the representatives of
Aguinaldo The text of the dispatch
was not made public, but it was stated
that Mr.. Schurman's report agreed
precisely with the press statement of
the proceedings in the conference as
cabled from Manila.
1t is declared at the state department
that the proclamation issued by the
Philippine commission just before the
beginning of the last campaign pre-
sents the maximum concessions to be
made to the insurgents by the United
States government. The United States
government is willing to accord the ma
tives an opportunity to test their abil-
tiles, for the Philippine commission
proposes to allow them almost complete
control of their local affairs. The ex-
pertinent is already in progress at
some points in the Philippines outside
the Island of Luzon.
So far as the reports indicate, these
experiments are working well and
promise to have good influence in
shaping the attitude towards the Unit
ed States of a considerable element
among the Filipinos, which has been
suspicious of our intentions

Cramps in a new corporation at the
Cramps present location in this city.
The name suggested is the Cramps-V Vic

thorized capital OF the Cramps is s5,-

Thomas Dolan, one of the directors
of the Cramp company, did not deny

Three People Killed and Over Fifty
BADLY Injured.

ROCHESTER, May 1.-The most dis
astrous railroad wreck that has hap
pened on Rochester railroad occurred
on the Rochester and Lake Ontario

filled with passengers, left the track
while going around a curve at full
speed, and were completely wrecked.
over so persons were injured, three
are dead and at least dozen are ia
tally injured.
The following is a partial list of the
dead and injured:
The scene which followed was heart
rending in the extreme. The means
and shrieks of the injured filled the
air and a sickening sight met the eye.
The work of rescue was energetically
carried on and as soon as each sufferer
was taken out he was sent to the hos
pital
Ambulances had been quickly sum-
moned from the city and although 1t
was a long run, remarkably quick time
was made. The ambulances carried
extra doctors so that the wounded were
quickly attended to and the more Sc
riously hurt were hastily removed to
the several hospitals.
