TRUST POLICY AGREED ON.
Democrats WIN Advocate = FeceraI L.
csuss Plan for Their Be-ulatfo1-At-
titude on Philippine Question

Washington, Jan. 23.-One subject
upon which Mr.. Bryan conferred at
length with democratic senators and
Representatives during his recent
visit was the antitrust policy. The
proposition to license trusts and to
bring them under federal supervision
was advocated strenuously by the can
didate and discussed fayOrabIy by the
democrats invited to the conferences
The plan cOntemplates a law which
shall require a corporation having
factories or establishments in two or
more states to take out a government
license as a condition for doing bust
ness A system Of inspection by sPe-
cial examiners, somewhat after the
forms pursued with national banks,
is to be devised. In this way trusts
are to be regulated and the evils elm
mated by congressional legislation
Southern senators who participated
in the conferences claim that they OBJ
tanned Mr.. Bryan's acquiescence in
the following definite form of Phil
ippine policy:
First-The instruction to be put
down.
SecOnd-A government to be estab-
ished by the United States
Third-LOcaI sovereignty to be &C
knOwIedged when the stability Of the
government is fully assured, the
United States to have a naval base
and commercial privileges and to ex-
ercise Protectorate functions as re-
CARDS other nations.
FOUrth-The Philippine govern
ment, when recognized, to issue bonds
with which to reimburse the United
States for the 10000, 900 paid to Spain
and for other expenses incurred

OmciaIs at Washington Annoyed by Con-
tinued Instantaneous Regarding Web
stsr Davis Visit to south Africa

Washington, Jan. 23-Both the
state and the interior department
authorize the most sweeping denial
of the story that Webster Davis, as
sistant secretary of the interior, is
clothed with any diplomatic mission.
1t is declared that he represents no
department of the United States gov
eminent in his visit to South Africa,
but is there in a personal capacity.
Since his arrival at Cape Town, where
he went to visit his cousin, Consul
General Stowe, the state department
has been very much annoyed at the
miscOnstruction that has been placed
upon his visit IT was to prevent
further misunderstanding on that
score that the department positively
declined Mr. Davis application for
leave of absence for Mr.. Stowe, who
wished to accompany Mr.. Davis to
Pretoria.

FOR THE OLD VETERANS.
Gen Daniel z sIckIes Appears Before the
Pension Committee and Pleads for
Liberal Treatment for Them

Washington, Jan 23.-Gen. Albert
D. Shaw, cOmmander-in-chief of the
G. A r, and the pension committee
Of that organization had a hearing
Monday before the house committee
on invalid pensions in the pending
bill to amend and make more clear
the act of June p, 1899. Gen Shaw
spoke briefly and the main arguments
were made by Chairman Brown, Of
GAINESVILLE, O., and Gen Daniel E
SiclIes, the old commander Of the
Third army corps
The principal feature Of the argu-
ments was that the law be made 50
clear as to be beyond the possibility
Of miscOnsructiOn. Some minor
changes were proposed in the CALM
ger bill and in the main its provisions
were approved as giving the remedies
desired. Gen. Sickles added a yigOr-
Gus plea for adequate attention by
the government to the veterans in
their old age and iRfiFmities.

IMPORTS AT MANILA.

troll They Were Third More Than

Washington, Jan. 23.-The war de-
Partment has made public a state
ment showing the imports at the port
of Manila for the three months of
July, August, and September last, be
ing the first official data since Amer
lean occupation. The total value Of
merchandise entered at Manila Gus
tom house for the three months

China, bringing the aggregate Of i'm
ports up to S6,443, 1O2, or at the rate
of more than SOS, 100000 a year for
Manila alone
The growing nature of the trade is
shown by a comparison with the
amounts for all Philippine ports for
the Is years ended with 1894, during
which time the average yearly i'm
ports of the archipelago only
amounted to s1zO39,O44, or approx
mately twO-thirds Of the valuation in

Fort Scott, Kan. Jan. 22-seoFge

Of 500 Een- Amos Philips, q convict

faction of the mob and the officers
because there is some doubt Of his
guilt The lynching was conducted
in a quiet manner.
The indignation that resulted ia the
lynching was provoked by o despeT-
ate attempt on the part Of the Aeeks
men TO murder a deputy sheriff and
break jail on last Saturday evening"
They felled the officer to the floor 81
the Jail, and the death blow was
warded of by another officer, who AZ.
rived at the scene Just in the nick Of
time. A battle of from 20 TO so shots
followed during which George MeelSs,
one Of The murderers, was shot IN the
leg. The nerve displayed by the two
victims OF the mob was only eQuaied
by their utter Indifference to the trial
and the court which convicted them.
George ATeel1s, the older of the two.
was carried 70 the tree. from which
he was swung IN front Of the jail,
smoking a cigarette, and was evident
" as unconcerned IN the matter as
the least interested man in the crowd.
His brother, Ed MeelIs, attempted to
make a statement, but the mob would
not listen.
The atroeity of the crime Of which
the men had been convicted, and their
suIlenness and Indifference TO the
court had infuriated the citizens
four weeks ago, almost to the extent
of lynching, and extra precautions
were taken to prevent it. Oficer Al

that gathered around the Jail during
the battle never left until the hfeIess

.BILLERS UTTER FAILURE.
Movement to Flank BOer Position
is Suddenly Checked.
A Dispatch sent After Two Days silence
Prepares England for Torss News
Beers Resume BOmbardmeut
Around Ladysmith.

London, Jan. 24.-Gen. Buffers great
turning movement, Of which so much
has been expected, has come to stand
still. His carefully worded message to
the war Office telling this, after a silence
OF two days, reads like an apology and
an explanation.
Gen. Warren holds the ridges, but
the enemy's positions are higher. The
British artillery is playing on the Boer
positions and the Beers replying. The
British infantry is separated by only
400 yards from the enemy, but an ap-
prOach to the steep slopes across the
bare open would expose the British TO
q fatal rife fire.
Gen. Buffers plans have reached
their development. He declines to send
his infantry across this zone against
formidable positions by daylight, and
disclosed his purpose tC assault the
SpiOn Kop heights during the night.
This appears to be the key to TO the
BOer defense. If he takes it and
thus commands the adjacent country
an important and possibly decisive step
viii be accomplished.
It seems that Gen. Buffers dispatch
reached the war Office rather early in
the night and was tba subject Of a pro-
loDged conference between Lord Lans-
dOwne, Mr.. Balfour and several other
staff officials. A determination appears
to have been reached not to give out
the message during the night, but tow
ard two a. m. copies of the dispatch
were made out for distribution among
the newspaper offices. These arrived
too late for extended comment.
Dispatches from BOer sources des-
oribe the renewal of the bOmbardment
of Ladysmith as more heavy than any
previous firing and as intended to dis
courage q sortie, syptoms of prepare
tions for egress from the town having
been observed from the BOer positions,
Special dispatches photographed from
Ladysmith on Monday say that the
investment has not been relaxed aud
that the garrison has ceased to specu-
late regarding the exact date Of deIiF-
erenee.
The positions of the British forces
outside of Natal is unchanged. The
forward movement elsewhere appears
to he waiting for reinfOrcements.
Advices from Pretoria state that
Gen. Warren's force attacked the BOer
positions three times Saturday, being
repulsed each time with heavy loss.

then make what appropriations may

work IN the future There is some
complaint about the slOwness with
which the work of aIloting lands and

territory is progressing. One town

whole year in laying out two towns,
and these two towns are the smallest

Havana, Jan. 23.-The newly ap-
pointed law reform commission viii
begin work almost Immediately.
The judicial system throughout the
island viii be made to lend itself to
the speedy handling Of cases IN order
that justice may be obtained without
delay. At the same time facility to
appeal VIII be granted. Severe en-
actments viii be instituted against
perjury, the commission being Of the
opinion that a few severe sentences
viii go a long way towards stopping
that crime.

procedure, as well as to avoid any
confusion between the military and
