PLEA OF THE FILIPINOS.

The Katipunan society, secret or
der with ramifications throughout the
Philippine islands, which, 1t Is said,
was the instigator Of all the revolts
against Spanish rule and which 1t Is
known had a principal part in the ris-
ing against the Americans, has pre-
pared a petition to the congress OF the
United States which will be submitted
through the Philippine commission.
The petition recites the history OF
the Katipunan society, including the
details of the organization, to which,
it is alleged, 100000 members belong.
1t declares that since 1892 independ-
ence has been the sole aim Of the So
ciety. 1t rehearses the events of the
present instruction in proof Of the
tenacity of the Filipinos to their ideals.
1t then relates the facts in connection
with the dispatch of messenger by
General Otis in May, 1899, to San Isidro
to confer with Aguinaldo, whose only
reply to the overtures made to him
was that the Filipinos would have in
dependence or death.
Continuing the petition says that
from the commencement Of the fight
ing the peaceful natives have sup
ported the insurgents secretly, and
that this support continues to be
given, either willingly or under COM
pulsion. 1t denies that the revolution
represents the personal or political
ambitions of the leaders. and declares
that the people of the entire archi-
pelago, including the Moros, support
the instruction.
The society declares that annexation
is impossible. The racial differences
are irreconcilable. The recent numer-
GUS robberies and similar crimes are
the natural result Of state OF insur-
rection and are not indicative of the
general tendency Of the Filipinos. 1t
is impossible to force lasting peace,
and autonomy cannot succeed. There
only remains independence. which.
with American protection, is de-
manded.
In conclusion. it is declared that
eight points have been demonstrated,
i. e.: First, the revolution was en-
tirely the work of the common peo-
Pile; second, desire for independence
impelled the people to prepare the in
surrection; third, the people are de-
termined to sacrifice everything In or
der to obtain their just aspirations;
fourth, despite the grave hindrances
the people still hope that the Ameri-
cans will be just and impartial and
recognize them; fifth, the Fflipinos
will never conform to American SOW
ereignty; sixth, annexation Is impos-
sible; seventh the amplest autonomy
would be violation of the will OF the
Filipinos. and. eighth, the Filipinos
are capable of self-government.
The final paragraph says: "In the
name of justice and with all the energy
of our souls we demand. first, the
recognition Of the independence Of the
Philippines, and, second, that in case
information is desired concerning
events occurring relative to the peace
full villages or the armed camps, 1t be
requested from the Filipinos, who by
their antecedents and good conduct
merit the respect, confidence and af-
lection of the Filipino people. Ma

A curious case has just been decided
nv \the supreme court Of New South
wales. A prisoner in that colony.
while serving his sentence, had the
sight of one of his eyes destroyed,
through the bursting Of the water
gauge glass of steam engine in the
coal. On his release he brought an &C
uon against the Minister Of Public
works, claiming $1,000 damages. On
anneal the full court has held that on
grounds of public policy the action
was maintainable. But it Is quite
nossible that an appeal to the Privy
Council would reverse this decision.

Concede Philippine Failure.

And now the Mckinley prophets
concede that the Philippine war Is not
over; that, in fact, the islanders are
still thoroughly rebellious, and that
more troops rather than less than the
65, 900 now there will be- needed.
But, with easy mendacity, they now
charge that all this hostility ON the
part of the Filipinos Is because Of the
encouragement given them by the
wicked anti-imperialists. Only re-
elect Mckinley and Republican con-
gress, they assert, and the insurgents
will at once lay down their arms and
bend their necks to the Mckinley yoke
of colonial absolutism.
1t Is, indeed, far cry from that
Mckinley who, in his Cuban message.
rightly declared that "forcible annexa-
ton would be criminal aggression"
to the Mckinley who has now, for
near a year and half, in shameful
breach of faith with our Filipino allies,
been waging war of conquest in tho
Orient. Well may William Lloyd Gar
rison ask:
How, in the future, will this record
read?
Here lie the patriots Of the Philip.

Wheat formed a moderately active mar
ket at times, but generally both the spec

small. and upon good authority it was
said that there was an export rate of
