SANGUINE OF SUCCESS.
State Department Hopes to Bring
Foreign Powers to its Views In
Chinese Affairs.

Washington, Dec. 3.-Administra-
ton officials continue sanguine that
the ministers of the powers at Peldn
will soon reach a common ground of
agreement in the demands to be made
upon the Chinese imperial govern
ment in satisfaction for the Boxer
outrages The state department is in
communication with the ministers
and ambassadors of the United States
to the European courts, and addresses
which have come from them from
tiIue to time lead the officials here to
hope that the powers viii be brought
to the position maintained by the
United States in dealing with the Chi
nese, viz. That there should not be
demands made upon the imperial gov
ernment which it is not able to fulfill.
Our government has persistently held
to this view in the progress of the
negotiations between the ministers at
Pekin, and if the principle of this
contention can be maintained in the
combined note to be handed to the
Chinese plenipotentiaries decided
advantage will be had at the start.
The attitude of our government on
this subject has been made clear to
Mr.. Conger. The meeting between him
and the German and French ministers
Saturday at Pekin, presumably, was
in compliance with the minister's
latest instructions from Washington.
Nothing has been heard from Mr..
Conger by the state department for
several DAYS.

THE KENTUCKY LAW UPHELD.
Opinion of the United States Supreme
Court on the Kentucky Sep
Rrate Coach Law.

Washington, Dec. 3.-The Kentucky
state law requiring railroad compa-
nies in that state to provide separate
coaches for colored passengers was
made the suDj,c' of an opinion in the
United States supreme court, the case
being that of the Chesapeake 4, Ohio
Railroad Co. VS.. the State of Ken
tucky. 1t came to this court from
the Kentucky court of appeals. The
opinion was handed down by Justice
Brown, and the Kentucky courts
Judgment in favor of the state was
affirmed Justice Brown stated that
In this case the railroad company had
attacked the statute on the ground
that it was unconstitutional, in that
1t is an interference with interstate
commerce.
Justice Harlan dissented, stating his
opinion to be that the law is an in
reference with interstate commerce,
and also taking the position that the
Kentucky legislature has no author
ity to classify citizens by color in
railway coaches.

THE NEW CENTURY FOR GOD.
Midnight Services to be Held for Its
Solemn Conservation to
His Service.

Washington, Dec. 3.-Archbishop
Martinelli, the apostolic delegate, will
participate at services to he held at
st. Patrick's church, in this city, at
midnight on December 81, to conse.
crate the new century to God.
A year ago the pope gave a special
permission, with a view to WIDE exer-
else of the privilege, to sing a solemn
mass at midnight of December 81 OF
last year, to consecrate the closing
year of the century, and to repeat it
on December 81 next, at the same
hour, for consecrating the entire
new century. The ceremony, like that
of a year ago, is expected to be an
unusually brilliant one, and most of
the bishops throughout the country
probably will hold similar solemn
services.

Speaker henderson arrived at his

rather slow in invading the galleries.
The president pro TEN, Mr.. Frye, was

senate began to show signs of the ac-
tiyity preceding actual business, which

The Army.

An increase in the regular army is
recommended and the need of soldiers
shown. After saying that we need at
least 10000 troops at home to care for
our expensive foruhcauonS and ordnance,
he continues
We have In Cuba between 5000 and 5000
troops. For the present our troops in that
island cannot be withdrawn or materially
diminished, and certainly not until the con-
clusion of the labols of the constitutional
convention now in session and a govern
ment provided by the new constitution
shall have been established and its stability
assured.
In Porto Rico we have reduced the gar
risons to 1856, which include $50 native
troops. There is no room for further re-
ductlon here. We will be required to
keep n considerable force in the Philip
pine islands for some time to come. From
the best information obtainaJle we shall
need there for the immediate future from
$4,000 to 60O00 men. | am sure the num-
Der may be reduced as the insurgents
shall come to acknowledge the author
ity of the United States, of which there
are assuring Indications.
1t may be apparent that we will re-
quire an army of about 10000, and that
during present conditions In Cuba and
the Philippines the president should have
authority to increase the force to the
present number of 100000. Included In
this number authority should be given to
raise native troops in the Philippines up
TO $4,000. which the Taft commission be-
lieve will be more effective in detecting
and suppressing guerrillas, assassins and
Ladrones than our own soldiers.
