MEET MANY Difficult TIES.
Philippine Commissioners Have
Hard Task.
sNEERED AT BY SPANIARDs.

Manila, Sept. 1.-THE Filipinos seem
incapable of realizing the scope and
purpose of the legislative functions of
the commission of peace. Spaniards
sheer at the new arrangements. A
majority of the islanders desire peace
and the resumption Of business under
the Americans but they are SO cowed
by a long series of murderous atroci-
ties and destruction of property by
their armed countryInen that they dare
not actively show their feelings be-
cause experience has taught them what
such an expression of sentiment will
bring upon them from the revengeful
rebels. A genuine reign of terror is
exercised by insurgents and ladrones
over peaceful country folk, in order to
collect the revenue and recruits their
operations require; and widespread
vengeance is wreaked in the vicinity
of garrisoned towns For example,
the insurgent general Cables, in the
province of Laguna, put to death the
president and oficeholders of the town
of Bay, on Laguna de Bay, officials
who had been installed by the Ameri-
cans, and gave orders that similar
fate should be meted out to other ad-
herents of the American cause.
Any change of policy involving the
withdrawal of the United States troops,
without substituting for them an ade
quate defensive force, is certain to re-
suit in fearful retaliation at the ex-
pense of the friendlies.
In northern Luzon the situation is
fairly well maintained and the people
in that quarter are quiet and. engaged
in planting, except in two provinces,
where there has been recent outburst
of rebel and ladrone activity. But in
Southern Luzon conditions are far
from satisfactory. Life there is not
safe outside the garrisoned towns.
Travellers are subject to ambush by
guerillas. Barely does day pass with
out an encounter between the United
States troops and the insurgents or
1adrones, resulting in casualties.
The experience of Northern Luzon
shows that the American occupation of
any locality tends to its pacifcation
and well being. An unsettled Amer
lean policy retards the investment of
capital. Nevertheless, the imports for
the last quarter ard half were great
er than during any equal period of the
Spanish regime. No doubt the needs
of the army OF occupation are respon-
sible for a very considerable fraction
of this. The internal revenue collec-
tons are third greater than those
made by Spain. This is due to an
honest system of accounts, to lack of
| favoritism and to impartial enforce
ment of the law.
The commission will first organize
municipalities in the pr6viHces. Sub
sequently it will turn its attention to
needed reforms in the civil and Grim
inal codes, passing in due ti,ne4o other
features of it's instructions, with the
idea of esta blishing a central civil gov
eminent during the next eighteen
| months.

Eight Against Two Hundred.

London, Sept. 4.-When General
Olivier was captured eight Queenstown
volunteers had SORTED from the town
and took up position in a donga,
through which the road passed behind
the Boer position.
As the Beers retired through the
donga in single file, they were stuck
up one by one and put under charge
of couple of men, out of sight, until
the colonials' had captured twenty
eight, including. General Olivier and
his three sons. AS 200 Beers were fol-
lowing behind in fairly close order,
the co1onials then began hard volley
firing, with the result that they killed
six Beers and frightened off the others.

Russia WIN Not Leave China.

Washington, Sept. 4.-Much interest
was aroused by the dispatch from St.
Petersburg, giving the full text of the

discrepancies which had existed. The
most important correction it makes is
in disclosing that Russia has not or
dered her minister and troops to with
draw from China, as was stated in the
American paraphrase of the proposal
but that she intends to recall NJ. de
Giers and his staff ''to Tien Tsin with
er they will be accompanied by Rus

Rapid City, S. D., Sept. 4.-Over a

for $40, 1000 damages for the death of her
son. The defense held that there was
recovery for the death of a single per-
son. At the trial the mother was given
damages, but the supreme court has
reversed the decision. Other similar
cases are pending in the courts.

Nicaragua is Willing.

New York. Sept. General P.
Alexander, who was appointed by
President Cleveland arbitrator in the
boundary dispute between Nicaragua
and Costa Rica has completed his mis-
sion and returned. While disclaiming
definite knowledge on the subject, he
was inclined to think that PROPOSE
ton from the Nicaraguan government
to. ours had already been made. He
believed that, rather than not have
the canal built, the Nicaraguan gov
eminent would accede to almost any
terms made by the United States.
