Queen Helene was born January 8,

Her father. bravest of men. had high
ambitions for his favorite and most

Car of Russia, anxious to win the
good will of this small but mighty peo-

made her an inmate of his palace and
a protege of the Czarina, with the well
understood purpose of marrying her TO
his son. the young girls widest dreams

tiles.
IN RUSSIA
Did she love the Czarovitch? Well,
that is question upon which the dark
eyed beauty has not opened her lips.
But that she loved the idea of one day
becoming Czarina of all the Russias,
mistress of the most splendid court in
all the world, there is no question how
she stood there. She would have given
her two black eyes and pearly ears for
the chance.
The Czarina fell in with her hus-
bands idea. and the Montenegrin was
treated as kindly and as lovingly as if
she were a daughter. She bore herself
becomingly, and those who saw her
would scarcely have imagined that she
was brought up in a squalid little viii
lage of 1000 inhabitants among the
Balkans, Cettinje by name. where her
father was more like a highland chief
tain than the ruler of people accord
ing to the modern idea of kings.
But she had been well tutored, and

other languages. we'll. and though she

1t is said that Nicholas later tried to

Washington, Feb. 22.-Upon repre-

to the effect that some of the islands
south of the Philippine archipelago
which had been taken possession of
by the United States gunboats were

direct the withdrawal of our claims

OUR WAR ABOUT ENDED.
Military Operations in Philippines
ernment VIII he Established.

Washington, Feb. 22.-According to
information received at the war de-
partment from Manila, with the end
of the present expedition of Gen.
Bates into the two provinces at the
extreme southern part of the island
of LuzOn, military operations IN the
Philippines will close. Afterward, it
is said, there is nothing to do but to
undertake to maintain order through
a police system. Attention is now be-
ing given TO that subject, and steps
are being. taken TO form a thoroughly
mobile, lightly armed gendarmerie,
something on the order of the Cana
dian mounted police, TO cover the
islands at ali points and conserve the
energies of the regular troops.
The arrest of a Tagal on the charge
of being a guerrilla, as reported from
Manila, it is said at the war depart
ment, marks the initiation of another
policy toward the insurgents who still
remain under arms. As the summary
punishment of guerrillas can not be
had until some action has been taken
to declare the termination of the APP
plication of the rules of war, it is as
sumed at the war department that
Gen. Otis has already issued some kind
of proclamation or notice to the ma
tives warning them that if they defy
the rules of war and pursue a preda-
tory warfare, they viii be treated as
guerrillas when captured.
The president is devOting special
attention TO the formation of the new
Philippine commission, acting on the
advice that the army has reached the
end of its functions in the islands and
that the time is ripe for the establish
ment of civil government throughout
the archipelago. 1t is hoped that the
personnel can be completed before the
end of next week. 1t appears that Mr..
DENLY was obliged to decline reap
pointment as a commissioner on ac-
count Of physical inability to stand
the hard work that will be involved
throughout the visit to all the islands
and set up local governments.

MAcRUM's CHARGES.
The state Department Makes AnsvvGt
TO the House Resolution Calling
for Information of Them.

Washington, Feb. 22.-The answer
of the state department to the house
resolution calling for information re-
garding certain charges made by late
Consul Macrum, was Transmitted TO the
house Wednesday by the president. 1t
is signed by Secretary Hay, and after
reciting, the resolution says:
answering the first part of the res
OlutiOn: The department of state has
been in regular communication by
mail and telegraph with Charles Z.
Macrum, late consul of the United
States at Pretoria, South African re-
public, since his entrance upon the du-
ties of the office. Communications
made TO him have been answered and
the execution of instructions sent
has been reported by him. His dis
patches to the department, forwarded
through the consulate at LOurenZO
Marques, have during that time been
regularly received. The only instance
of complaint in respect to the transit
of the mails for LOurenZO Marques
and Pretoria was in November last,
when a temporary stOppage of the
mails occurred at Cape Town, against
which Mr.. Macrum and the consul at
LOurenzo Marques protested. Ar
rangements were made for the prompt
delivery of the consular mails to the
United States consul general at Cape
Town, by whom the mail for Mr.. HOl-
lis and Mr.. Macrum was forwarded to
Lourenzo Marques. The delay lasted
but a few days, and has not required
so far as the department is advised.
After that time the departments mail
for LOurenZo Marques and Pretoria
was sent by neutral route, which, it
appears, was known and open to Mr..
Macrum and Mr.. Hollis as early as
November 16 last. No obstacle, there
fore, is mere known to have existed
since then to Mr.. Macrum's Unham-
pered correspondence with the depart
ment of state. At no time while at
his post did Mr.. Macrum report to the
department any instance of violation
by opening or otherwise of his official
mail by the British censor at Durham
or by any person or persons whatsO-
ever, there or elsewhere. Neither has
he reported since he left Pretoria, al
though the amplest opportunity TO do
so by mail while on the way home
and in person when he reported to
the department upon his return.
answering the second part of the
aforesaid resolution, the undersigned,
secretary of state, has the honor to
say that there is no truth in the
charge that a secret alliance exists be-
tween the United States republic and
the empire of Great Britain; that no
form of secret alliance is possible I'M
der the constitution of the United
States, inasmuch as treaties require
the advice and consent of the senate;
and finally, that no secret alliance,
convention, arrangement or under
standing exists between the United
States and any other nation.
