IT IS NOW PORTO RICO.
Senate Committee Changes the Spell
ing on the Name.

Senate Committee Changes the Spell
ing on the Name.
washington. Jan. 27.-The senate
committee on Porto Rico has decided
so far as it can decide that the island
whose affairs it has under its particu-
lar care shall be known as Porto Rico,
and not Puerto Rico, as fixed by a re-
cent executive order The question
came up today in the meeting of the
committee in connection with the Fora
ker bin providing form of government
for the island, and the decision upon
the spelling Of the name was unani-
nous.
The committee went over the bill in
detail, deciding upon many changes in
phraseOlogy and some alterations in the
provisions of the bill. Probably one of
the most important changes was to
strike out the word constitution
wherever it appeared in the original
print of the bill, which extended the
provisions of the constitution as well as
of the laws to the island. The change
was made because OF the opinion gen
orally expressed by the members of the
committee that our constitution is not
suited to the Porto Rico people. The
opinion was also quite general that the
CAAEllGltM VI TIE EDAicLlAk LtBi1 d G4OL
necessary. Some Of the senator's ex-
pressed the opinion that the natives Of
the island were not yet prepared for
jury trials.
Another important amendment pro-
vides for the retirement of Porto Rican
coins and substitutes for them the
coins Of the United States. The secre-
tary of the treasury is authorized to
redeem the silver coin known as the
peso and all other silver and copper
Porto Rican coins now in circulation at
the present rate of so cents in the
money of the United States for one
peso.
Another provision authorizes the
president to appoint an officer of the
army to be governor Of the island. not
withstanding any present laws to the
contrary, but the appointment Of such
officer is made optional with the presi-
dent All laws enacted by the Porto
Rico legislature are to be reported to
congress, which reserves the right to
annul them if considered necessary.
The provisions OF the bill relating to
the questions of the tariff, the federal
courts, the internal revenue and a del
egate in the congress of the United
States, were passed over until a full
attendance of members of the commit
tee could be secured. one or two of the
members being absent during the
greater part of the day.

BJLLER's MOVE Has FAILED.
Gloomy View Of Situation is Taken

Gloomy View of Situation is Taken
II London.
New York Tan 27-Dis catches fron1
London say that the military experts
the newspapers and the people IN the
street take a gloomy view o. the situa-
ton on the Tugela. it beinE he general
belief that General Buffers fianking
movement has failed as completely as
his frontal movement of last month.
The idea prevails that the war office
has had news which it is keeping from
the public, and that the list of casual
ties which was given out yesterday
does not cover the losses Of General
Warren from the annoying fire" spok-
en- of by General Butler.
Since the thanking movement began
on Jan. 10, General Butler has reported
sixty killed $50 wounded and sixty
missing II is remembered how his
casualty list grew from day to day af-
ter the defeat last month. ard it is
feared the losses Of the past few DAYS
have been frishtful.
General Butler is criticised for the
form Of his message. which reads as
though he were trying to saddle the
blame for the defeat upon General
Warren.
The new British reverse is likely to
nave dlSneartenlng effect upon the
beledgUered garrison of LadysnIith but
for whom the campaign would have
been conducted on very different plan.
Letters written when the siege of
Ladysmith began were very sanguine:
a letter written about the middle of
December said the besieged had ratiOns
for SIX weeks. and according to all re-
ports the food question must be press
ing. The latest message from Lady
smith reported twelve deaths in one
day from enteric fever and dysentery.

New York, Jan. ga special to the
Herald from Washington says. The i'm
preston is growing among admiBstra-
ton leaders that there should be some
definite action by congress without
much further delay, upon the problem
of the Philippines policy. It is general
~ felt that further delay in the declara-
ton Of some sort Of government policy
for the islands may not only work
harm in the Philippines, but may be
utilized 20 advantage by the Democrats
in the pres. dental campaign.
While senators are very guarded in
THEN Utterances, several Republicans
believe the administration policy VIII be
strengthened by a frank and prompt
declaration, or by congressional action
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1900-01-28

which will mean the same thing. They
think such a step would work to their
advantage through the favorable i'm
preston it would make upon business
men, and at the same time strengthen
the administration by bringing an ear
~ end TO all except the merest guerilla
warfare in the islands.
The senate is expected to take the
first practical steps on this line, but as
yet nothing has been done. Senator
Lodge Of Massachusetts, chairman of
the Philippines commission, has up to
this time been Of the opinion that there
should be nothing in the nature Of
declaration Of policy in advance Of the
ending Of the insUrTeCtiOn by the cap
tuTe Of AgUinaldO and the surrender by
the Filipinos of their arms.
Action is Urged.
1t is understood several prominent
senators on the committee are urging
action for the two reasons indicated
that a declaration by congress would
tend to help conditions in the Philip
pines, and that such action would
strengthen the administration
The only resolution now before the
senate. legislative in its character, is
that Of Senator SpO0ner Of Wisconsin.
This is modelled on the similar resolu-
ton Of congress under which the pres
ident obtained fun authority, executive,
legislative judicial in the territory
covered by the Louisiana purchase un-
til such time as congress should itself
take charge.
i think it would be better" said Mr.
Spooner, Ito take that action than to
have the conduct Of affairs remain in
the hands OF the president simply
through his power as commander in
chief Of the army, a year after peace
has been secured. The most practical
declaration we can give those people
out there would be to show them that
congress recognizes that we have ae-
QUiTed possession Of the country and
we are legislating for it,
VIII Put Down Instruction.
"Of course we shall put down the in
surrection. Tnat is what we have in
creased the army for, and by showing
them that congress treats them as in
surrectionists and regards their coun-
Try as part of the country controlled by
Us, we will, ] think, do much more to
ward bringing a settlement of the con-
ditiOns than we would by any formal
declaration Of policy"
Senator Morgan of Alabama, agrees
with Senator SpOOner.s view of what
should be done by congress.

Defends the Government.
Joseph Chamberlain, who expected to
attend the banquet of the Birmingham
jewelers. and silversmiths this evening,
was unable 70 be present owing to the
holding Of a meeting OF the defense
committee. His place was taken by the
Hon. Jesse Ceilings. under secretary of
state for the home Office, and Mr. J.
Austen Chamberlain civil lord of the
admiralty.
The former replying to a toast to
Her Majesty's Ministers" deplored the
attitude Of the press in regard to the
war IN South Africa He said there
had been no middle in is conduct, and
the facts. when known. would show
there had been no war in which more
foresight, skill and care had been dis
played by the government than the
present one. The reYerses, he declared.
only increased the determination to
prosecute the work to the end. The war
involved the question whether Great
Britain maintain her position or sink
into an Insignificant third-rate power.
AR. Austen Chamberlain. in the
course Of his remarks, said that If
Great Britain had shirlzed her respon-
sibllity the price paid would have been
the loss in the near future of South
Africa and her separation in the not
remote future from those great
branches of the Anglo-Sa stock,
whose loyalty which was due to their
confidence in Great Britain's power to
see right done her subjects in every
portion Of the world, was so dear to
Great Britain
Lord DUnraven, who is chairman of
the committee having a charge the
raising Of a force of mounted sharp
shooters for service with the yeomanry
IN South Africa, has appealed to the
public for subscriptions in aid Of that
organization. He says he already has
400 applicants, whose shooting records
are high, and many of whom had ex-
perience in the bush. The amount
needed is 10000, of which g 600 has
already been subscribed.

in regard to the situation in China,
especially as it is announced that the
Shikishin1a will endeavOr to transverse
the Suez canal by divesting herself Of
her armament. Up to the present no
ship of such size has traVersed the ca
nal.
The Interpretation that the departure
Of the Shikishima was directly due to
the situation in China is incorrect, as
the Associated Press learns today that
the date set for the sailing was decided
on many weeks ago, and farewell
party was held on board of her previous
to the deposition OF the emperor of
China. But though this incident was
given exaggerated Importance in the
afternoon papers, the Associated Press
ia able to say that those in England
most cognizant of the secret aims OF
Japan, especially those who are fulfill
ing her naval contracts, have for some
time past thoroughly believed she med
itated striking a blow at Russia. If
this impression is correct, and there is
the highest and most conservative au-
thority on which to base it, it is not
unlikely that Japan's hand may be
forced. and her intended coup will be
attempted before her plans are COM
oleted.
Japan's Powerful Navy.
It may be that Japan only meditates
for the present to prevent Russia from
accomplishing the designs which var
ious correspondents have credited her
with since the change in China's en-
perOr. Two powerful war vessels built
for japan on the Clyde Will soon be
ready to sail, while others are under
course Of construction. Their strength
has not attracted much attention, but
their importance as international fac
tors can be judged from a statement
made to a representative Of the Asso-
ciated Press by one Of Engiands great
est ship-builders, who declared the yes
sells building for Japan were the most
powerful IN the world, and could de-
etroy the best British ships in fifteen
minutes
Several of Japan's vessels in course
Of construction would have been com
pleted before now, had not Japan en-
countered financial difficulties. The
British builders would not let the YES
sells sail until paid for in cash.
Got Money From England.
To accomplish this Japan induced a
syndicate Of English bankers to ad-
vance the money, and their action has
been the subject of a good deal Of pri-
vste criticism in the inner admiralty
circles, when it was realized what ire
mendous naval power Japan was accu-
INITIATING, and though Great Britain's
strength was not impaired, it was
thought inadvisable for British capital
lists to so materially assist Japan TO
become a dangerous rival
A well known naval expert tells rep
resentatfve of the Associated Press that
if Japan puts in commission the ships
scheduled for service in the near fu
ture, she will be ready for war within
six months, and can then defy Russia,
and as the japanese and Russian ships

this measure is decided to inausurate

The aim is to make ability and in

"To briefly summarize the salient fea-
