Advices Received by n Japanese

VICTORIA. B. c.. June 29.-Advices from
Hakodate state that Capt. Sakichi of the
steamer Hokoku Maru. just returned from
the Philippines reports that in the south
ern islands the young Fiiipinos are con-
structing fortificauOns against emergen-
cies. Every port is garrisoned by a thou
sand or so volunteers, whose weapons,
however, are very crude only about 20 per
cent being armed with rifles Remingtons).
They are, however. full of patriotism, and
state that they will not yield to the Amer
leans, though the whole of the Islands are
destroyed.
The HUkOku Maru was warmly welcomed
by the Filipinos, who consider the japanese
to be kindred race and hoped for assist
ance from them.
The Fflipinos were prepared to pay for
arms and ammunition, and said the Japan
ese vessels visiting the islands could take
return cargoes of hemp. Captain Sakichi
says he only sold the insurgents two revol-
erS and the cooks knives.

.ALGER IN THE CABINET
McMillan's Friends Will Make No Effort to
Force Him Out,
They Think His Retention VIII Prac-
ticaiIy Aid the Michigan
Senator.

The presence of Senator Burrows at the
White House today led to the belief that
he had come here as the representative of
Senator Mcmillan to quietly enter protest
against Secretary Alger remaining in the
cabinet, but the senator's emphatic state
ment that the subject of Michigan politics
had not been mentioned puts a new phase
on the situation.
Will Not Embnrrass the President.
1t is stated on good authority that Sena-
tor Mcmillan and his friends will probably
not bring the matter to the attention of the
President at all unless the situation
changes materially. Their position is that
they will not embarrass the President by
asking that Secretary Alger be sent adrift.
One of Senator McMilan's friends asserts
that the President will find enough en-
barrassment without an issue being made
which he would have to decide. 1t is also
stated that Senator Mcmillan is Indifferent
to Secretary Alger remaining in the cab
met He believes, it is said. that it will
make votes for him. He further alleges
that everything is so favorable to his re-
election that he does not care much what
is done by his opponent. In private con-
versation Senator Burrows Is most positive
in his assertions that Senator McMillin will
have an easy fight.
President VIII Keep His Hands OF.
Senator Mcmillan is confident, it is said
today that the presence of Secretary Alger
in the cabinet will not convey the impress
sion to Michigan voters that Gen. Alger
has the administrations wish for his cleo
ton. On the other hand, the President has
been so friendly to Senator Mcmillan as to
show it is said. that the President is
''hands off, in the fight.
AIeer Should See the Situation.
1t is said on coed authority that the Nc
MILAN people believe that Secretary Alger
ought to see the situation and meet it. The
hint is thrown out that the Mcmillan fight
ers will continually place before the repub-
licans of Michigan intimations that Secre-
tary Alger remains in the cabinet against
the Presidents judgment. This, they as
sert, viii cripple the Secretary and place
him in a light which might do him much
injury.

PEARS CLAIM AGAINST HONDURAS.
Denial That Minister Hunter Has
Been Delaying Matters.

The State Department has taken notice
of certain charges made against United
States Minister Hunter by B. B. Pears of
delaying the prosecution of the claim for in
demnity against Honduras on account of
the killing of his brother
1t is reiterated that there has been no de-
lay in the prosecution of this case, Mr..
Pears statements to the contrary notwith-
standing, and in support of this statement it
is pointed out that Mr.. Hunter has already
presented the claim for indemnity, that the
State Department has firmly declined to en-
terrain several dilatory propositions en-
anating from the Honduranian government.
and that meanwhile it has been informed
by persons appearing to be fully authorized
to represent the interests of the deceased
that additional informal ton bearing on the
case was on its way to Washington. Still,
this last representation has not had any
effect to cause suspension of the depart
ment's activity in its effort to collect this
indemnity, which, after all. is just twice
as large as 1t has been usual to claim in
such cases.
