STRIKE ON n RELIEF SHIP.
SfeVedOreS at San Juan Refused 10
Unload the Mcpherson.

San Juan de Porto Rico. Aug. 81
The unloading of the transport Nc
Pherson, which brought supplies for
those who suffered by the recent hur-
ricane, was stopped until Sunday noon
by strike Of the native stevedores,
who had demanded double pay Ma
jor Cruise addressed the lis men en-
gagged in the strike on Saturday, tell
ing them that ordinarily they would
not be asked to work on Sunday, but
the Mcpherson was loaded with pro
visions for their starving countrymen
and it was necessary to request them
to work Saturday morning. The ad-
dress had no effect on the strikers,
and so far as they were concerned the
whole population might starve before
they would work to prevent it.
When Major Cruise saw that the
stevedores were obdurate, he called
volunteer for the work of discharging
the transport. One hundred respon-
ded, and at noon yesterday the work
of unloading was resumed. A new
gang of stevedores are at work today,
but they are green hands and are MAX
ing very slow progress.
Reports from the interior show
that the large planters are opposed to
the free distribution of supplies
They, of course, know the native
character, and they say that since the
news spread among the laborers that
the government would feed them, it
has been impossible to get any work
done on the plantations. The planters
contend that if aid is to be given it
should be given for work done on the
roads and not gratuitously. If the
undertakes to feed the la
borers without any return it will be
to get men to work on the

THE PHILIPPINES ISSUE
Commissioner schurman Says the
Question Is Moral One.

Ithaca, N. Y, Aug 27.-Commis-
sioner Jacob G. Schurman reached Ith-
AGA today. Since leaving Manila The
has, he says, steadily refused to dis
cuss Philippine affairs, although he
has ibeen jbeses ged by reporters every
where, Chicago reporters having gone
as far west as the Rocky mountains to
interview him. However, he now
makes the following statement for the
Associated Press:
First-The United States, having as
summed sovereignty over the Philippine
isrnnds by virtue of "a treaty of peace
with Spain, the chief executive of the
that sovereignty The issue today is
not commercial one, although the
natural resources of the Philippine
islands are of great value, and wait
only American capital for the develop
mleEs Nor is the question one of po-
litical e1pedfency or party politics, all
though in it's collateral branch there
may be aspects ON which political
parties may properly divide, but the
question, today is neither one of COM
mercial advantage nor of partisan pol
tics. It is a purely moral question.
The vital issue is the honor of the
nation, the protection of loyal Fill
pinos. and the fulf11lment of our obli-
cations to the nations of the world in
volved in our acceptance Of sover-
eighty.
Second-The means and agencies for
the accomplishment of this end must
be determined by the president, and it
is we'll to bear in mind that the presi-
dent understands the situation better
than any one else can possibly do, in
asnuch as he is in receipt of informa-
ton from a variety of sources, civil
and military, and has the Judgment of
experts upon the facts reported. 1
have no doubt The president will soon
effect solution OF the Philippine
problem which will be entirely sat
isfaotory: to the American people. To
his craftsmanship and tried ability we
may intrust the issue with perfecs con-
fidence.

NO ROOM FOR WEAKLINGS
Unfit Men Weeded Out of The Vol.
unfeer Regiments.

| Washington, Aug. 27.-Thousands of
dollars have been saved to the gov
ernment by the departments action
in directing the discharge of all vol
uEteers in the new regiments whose
physical condition indicates their liza
bility to break down after a few
months service in the Philippines.
Returns received by the department
from the ten volunteer regiments al
ready organized indicate that 1000
men have 50 far been discharged as
unfit for military service.
This is in accordance with the Or
ders te,egraphed to their commanding
officers by Col Thomas Ward, assist
ant adjutant general, as the result of
a conference between Adjutant gen.
eral Corbin and Col. Ward, in which
it was pointed out that the enlistment
of men of weak constitution would
soon result in their discharge on the
ground Of disability incident to the
service and that they and their fam
lilies would thus become pensioners
upon the government.
General Corbin at once brought the
matter to Secretary Roots attention,
and the latter directed the discharge
OF all minors or men whom the sur
gecns represented as liable to break
down shortly after arrival in the

Bryan. Democrats Are ConfI-
dent of Carrying the Siafc-Con-
ferenceS at CincinnafI.

Washington, Aug. 27.-Mr. John r.
Mclean isxnow in Cincinnati. To-
morrow he will go to Zanesvilla, where
the democratic state convention is to
be held on Wednesday. His present
programme is to arrive at GAINESVILLE
on the night before the convention as
sembles.
Mr.. Mclean left Washington con-
fident that he will be the democratic
nominee for governor. The feeling
in the state. as shown by the action
of the various county conventions.
justifies his confidence. He will be
opposed by Col. Kilbourne, of Column
bus, but if the tide continues as it is
now running, there will only be one
ballot, and the result will be known
long before that ballot is concluded.
During the three days that intervene
before the convention Mr.. Mclean will
consult with a large number of DEM
ocratic leaders from all parts of the
state, and his knowledge of the polit-
tcal conditions with which he is al
ready very familiar, will be materially
increased. He would not, quite nat
urally, be interviewed yesterday as
TO the outlook for his own election.
4 believe, of course" he said s'that
the democrats will be victorious in
Ohio this year, but the election is still
a long way off and no prediction made
at this time would have much value"
Considerable interest is manifested
as to the declarations which the Ohio
democrats will make in their state
platform. 1t is said that the Chicaao
platform of 1896 will be specifically
reaffirmed and there will also be an
emphatic Endorsement of Bryan as the
next presidential nominee 1t is be-
lieved that the delegates, whatever
may be their differences of opinion on
other subjects, will be unanimous for
Bryan. The democratic managers are
we'll aware of his popularity in the
state. 1t is recalled that when he
in Ohio during the unsuc-
cessful fight to prevent the reelection
of Mr.. Hanna 70 the senate, he was
received with the greatest enthusiasm
by the democratic rank and file, and
recent efforts to discover whether this
regard still exists have shown conclu-
sively that it has increased rather
than diminished This being the case.
the democratic managers will not at
tempt to oppose what seems to be the
the UNIVERSAL sentiment Mr.. Bryan
will be Endorsed by the GAINESVILLE
convention, and the delegation which
goes from the state to the next ma
5ional convention will be for him.
Mr.. Mclean will not go upon the
stump. He has already made up his
mind in this regard. He is not a
speaker, a fact which he regrets, but
which he cannot change. He will,
however. give his close personal at
ention to the organization of the
work which is greatly to
lis liking and IN which he exee,s.
