Negroes bring particulars Of the uprising last
month In the southern part of the island, 10
which Lieutenant A. C. Ledyard, Sixth In
fantry. was killed. Instead OF being an IN
important revolt OF native police, as was al
first reported, it appears to have been an
attempt to overthrow American authority
The movement was started by the chief OIL
cials OF the autonomous government, tne
men who were elected and inaugurated with
so much ceremony last November.
Eleven OF these officials, including the
president and several councillors, were
lodged in jail on charges Of plotting treason.
Several secured their release under heavy
bonds, but others remain In prison.
General Smith found evidence that the re-
voting police were following the orders OF
the autonomous government, which designed
to use the forces under its control to over
power the Americans. The plot failed
through being started prematurely, but
Negroes was In state OF uneasiness for
week. Two companies OF the Twenty-sixth
Infantry were hurried from Iloilo to rein

retreating escort for three miles along the
road, until the Americans were reinforced.

BUSINESS methods have at last
been applied to the work OF raising
money for the Grant monument in
New York. Had this been done
seven years ago the monument would
now be finished, and a pride to New
York instead of disgrace. That
city gave as freely to the fund for
the relief of Jamestown as any other
in the country. There was method
in the management Of that fund.
There were committees to solicit SUBJ
scriptions from all departments OF
trade, and a large amount of money
was raised in a very short time. The
same method is to be applied to the
Grant monument subscription, and,
if it be thorough, the different COM
mittees ought to raise the money
necessary to complete the monument
in a few weeks.

The scanlalous yyre.ches.

The Puritan fathers, who settled
in America, were greatly addicted to
smoking; indeed, the practice became
SO common that even these strait
laced observers Of time and seasons
actually smoked in church. This
custom soon caused very considerable
annoyance, as the religious exercises
were greatly disturbed by the clink-
ing of steels and f1ints and the clouds
of smoke in church.

For two or three years eminent
architects have claimed that the de-
finitive type of commercial architect
ure had been found in what is known
as the Chicago SYSTEM" namely,
a rigid framework of steel forming
the pillars, floor joists, and partitions,
supporting the roof and upholding
the structure without aid from the
exterior walls, which are mere
veneer of brick, stone, or terra Gotta.
Now, however, comes Gen. Sooy
Smith, himself an engineer Of the
highest scientific attainments, and
declares that the steel or iron frame
work must be discarded and solid
stone pillars substituted II absolute
safety against fire is sought. 1t Is
evident that the adoption Of Gen.
Smiths suggestion would greatly de-
crease the available area in a build
ing. as the size of the columns neces-
sary to support a given weight will
be greater in stone than II they are
made of metal. And as owners seek
the maximum amount Of income
producing space it is likely that the
Chicago system will be adhered to
despite this scientific criticism OF It's
qualities as a flreproof type of con-
structiOn.

One Of the most interesting debates OF this
session Of the Virginia Assembly took place
in the Senate. The subject under consider
alton was the LeCato resolution so amend
Ing the Constitution as to make the prepay
ment Of the capitation tax the prerequisite
to vote. The proposition failed few days
ago, but was passed by and came up on q
reconsideration. There was very decloed
opposition expressed to the resolution. Inc
antagonism OF most Of those who spoke was
based upon the fear that such legislation
might imperil the question of calling con-
stitutional convention. Several of the speak
ers pointed out the fact that the delinquents
who were aimed at in the LeCato resolution
would be apt to show their opposition TO
call for convention when 1t Is submitted 10
the voters. Some of the speakers intimated
that it was likely that the desire to defeat
the convention inspired some of the friends
of the measure under consideration.
