"Apropos of the wonderful ancient
ruins in Yucatan," said a New Orleans
college professor there is one very
fortunate circumstance which has pro-
tected them almost entirely from spo-
liation by the Indians. 1t is currently
believed by the natives all through
that part of the country that the ruins
are haunted and that devils will carry
away anybody who attempts to modest
them. This superstition has been en-
couraged by explorers and is a better
safeguard than a picket of soldiers"

Senator Butler once had bill appro-

Of Senator Wolcott's fun.
"Can the senator tell me the date Of
the battlef" he asked Mr.. Butler.
''It was the first battle Of the Revo-
luton, 20 days before the battle of
Lexington" was the reply.
But cannot the senator tell me the
day and the year?" persisted Mr.. VOL

Mr.. Butler was stumped. 81 can tell
the senator tomorrow" he finally re-
marked.

A few minutes later Senator Wolcott
relented, and Mr.. Butler made another
effort to get the appropriation agreed
to. This time it was Senator Lodge
who objected.

and thus avoid the bend. 1t is said further that
the Commission has found that there is no end
of pipes conduits and obstacles in Forty second
st. and that 1t wants to steer clear Of them.
Yesterday several members of the Commission
talked with the representatives of the New-YorIx
Central Railroad. looking to a change of route
by which the underground road can come down
under the Grand Central Station. The officials
of the New-York Central do not look with favor
at all upon this plan. They say they do not
want the tunnel builders blasting under the sta
tion, and intimate that if the tunnel were built
under the Grand Central some day a heavy
train might roll along and sink down into 1t.
1t was learned yesterday that the Rapid
Transit Commissioners believe that they will be
able to finish the tunnel within contract time.

POLITICS IN THE PHILIPPINES.
FORMING a PARTY ORGANIZATION ON
AMERICAN PRINCIPLES.

Manila Dec. 1.-THE first political party
under the American regime is in process of
formation. It's principles have been embodied
in platform which will shortly be made pub
lie. 1t is understood that the declarations of
the platform give the fullest recognition to
American sovereignty, and also favor a con-
siderable degree Of native autonomy concerning
internal and local affairs.
ers, who have been instrumental in bringing
the matter 10 a head. have been in conference
with those interested, and this evening the plat
form will be outlined to the Philippine Com
mission by Senior Buencamino former Premier
in the so-calIed Government of Aguinaldo; Colo
mel Aquiles and DR.. Frank S. Bourne. an Ameri-
can, formerly chief surgeon, with the rank of
major. and health officer of Manila. DR.. Bourne
was with Professor Dean C. Worcester prior to
the American occupation. and has confidential
relations with the Filipino leaders.
The Commissioners are not likely to give pub
lie expression to their views regarding the for
nation of political parties, but the principles of
the new organization, so far as made known,
seem to be favored by intelligent Filipinos
