Force in Philippines Cannot be Reduced
at Onee-Folly to DO so.
As result of conference between
the secretary of war and Quartermaster
General Ludington, it has been decided
that no further action can be taken
with regard to the return Of the volun-
teers from the Philippines until con-
gress stall make provision for their re-
placement.
The war department is considerably
embarrassed by the failure of congress
to make provision before the recess for
the relief of the military situation in
the Philippines.
Acting under representations made
by General Macarthur the department
has concluded that it is absolutely nee
essary to maintain an army of 10000
men in the Philippines until the cur
rent policy of establishing municipal
governments throughout the archipel-
ago has been executed. 1t is stated at
the department that any reduction of
the military strength below that figure
under existing conditions may prove
disastrous to the interests of the United
States. No further reduction will be
made until the war department is adj
vised fully of the purpose of congress
with regard to army legislation.
When the necessary authority has
been given it is the purpose Of the de-
partment to bring home as rapidly as
possible all the volunteers and regu-
lars whose terms of enlistment expire
on the 30th of June next, but not be-
fore it is possible to replace them man
for man with new recruits enlisted
under the terms of the new army bill.
1t is expected that congress will act
promptly on the army bill soon after
it reassembles in January. but even in
that event it is said at the war depart
ment it will not be possible to get the
fresh troops to the Philippines inside
of two menths. The general home
coming of the mass of volunteers there
fore will have to be postponed until
about February 1.

Force Are Searching For
tho Pair.

An Indianapolis, Dec. 90 dispatch says:
A sensational kidnapping inv lv.ng the
family Of ex-United States Attorney
General Miller, occurred this afternoon
and led to a hot chase a few minutes
later across the state to overtake the
wife Of Samuel d. Miller, son of w. H.
Miller, who was supposed to be flying
to New York with her stolen son.
Samuel Miller and wife have lived in
New York for several years, and last
summer he came west to go into his
fathers Office. His wife stayed in
New York. Last Friday she came
here to demand possession of her
seven-year-old son, whom her father
had brought west with him and who
was living with him at the house Of
the grandfather, w H. Miller.
The husband and wife held consul
tation, and she agreed that If the boy
was allowed to DE sent to her daily she
would not kidnap him.
This afternoon the nurse and boy
called on Mrs. Miller at the hotel.
Later Mrs. Miller said they would go
for drive, and they started in closed
carriage down towards the depot.
The German governess, suspecting
foul play. jumped out of the carriage
while it was on run, run to a tele-
phone and notified the father and
grandfather.
Mrs. Miller Immediately ordered the
carriage driven to Brightwood, and
when the two Millers arrived at the
union station there was no trace of the
woman and boy.
Mrs. Miller was Helen Karcher, of
Po.tstown, Pa. and Samuel Miller
met her nine years ago at Washing
ton, when his father was United States
attorney general. They were married
q year later and the boy is now seven
years old.
Last summer Mr.. Miller was offered
an opening in his fathers office and
came west. Mrs. Miller refused to
come and since that time has lived in
New York. There has been no divorce
and Mr.. Miller has been sending her
an allowance.

A London, Dec. 20 dispatch says:
The position of Cape Colony is hang

Morning Posts Capetown correspon-
dent everything depends upon the
quantity Of ammunition in possession
OF the disloyal Dutch. 100 Of whom
have Joined the Beers in the Phillip
town districts alone. Energetic meas
urcs have been taken to stem the inva-
sion. but there is unquestionably dam
ger that parties Of Beers will get
through into parts Of the colony AMI
gradually raise the whole cape in re-
bellion.
Most Of the dispatches from Cape
town says the raiders are doing little
harm and are being rapidly enclosed
BY Lord Kitchener's command. Lord
Kitchener is In the heart OF the disaf-
1ected districts. He has the advantage
OF being acquainted with local condi-
lions Last March he supervised the
suppression Of the rising which oc-
eurred then. He is bringing down
thousands Of troops from the north.
The Standards Capetown cores
pendent says the loyalists demand that
marshal law shall be proclaimed
throughout Cape Colony, but adds:
s'Such step is now impossible, ow-
Ing to the lack Of sufficient troops TO
enfore IT."
The correspondent OF the Daily Mail
ut Capetown says:
The pro Boer press is singularly
quiet. They have been made uneasy
BY tho promptness and thoroughneas
Of the military action, but reports
from the various parts Of the western
provinces foreshadow perilous poss,-
eiiities. A responsible colonist who

declares that 90 per cent OF the Dutch
are simply voting for the appearance
OF = resourceful leader to rebel"
Civil railway traffic has been sus-
pended largely in all parts OF the
colony, and the movements OF both the
Beers and the British are almost un-
known In Capetown. II appears that

but was repulsed and fed, entrenching
