Replies to Interroeatorfes a. to His
Prospective Policy.
W. j. Bryan when he reached Wilmington,
Del, yesterday had the following questions
submitted to him by the chairman of the
republican state committee:
1. Will he. If elected President. COM
mander-in-chief Immediately withdraw the
army from the Philippine Islands?
2. How soon does he contemplate that .
stable form Of government can be given
to the Philippine Islands?
3. How soon. after stable form Of gov
eminent is established, does he propose
that Congress shall declare the indepen-
dence of these islands?
4. How soon after a stable form of gov
eminent Is established and independence
Is declared does he propose that the Amer
lean protectorate the Philippine Is
lands shall continue?
5. VIII he pay the obligations of this gov
eminent in silver gold If elected Presi-
dent?
from his speech Of acceptance. saying: Il
stated If elected President / would imme-
diately convene Congress in extraordinary
session and would ask Congress to declare
the nations policy to be to establish sta
Bile government In the Philippine Islands,
as we are now establishing a stable govern
ment In Cuba; to declare our purpose to give
Independence to the Filipinos as we have
promised to give independence to the Gu
bans; to declare our purpose to give pro-
lection to the Filipinos as we have promised
to give protection to the Cubans and have
for seventy-five years given protection to
the republics of Central and South Amer
ica."
On the second question, he said: mo one
has attempted to fix the number of hours
or days or weeks months necessary,
but will say this. believe that we could
establish a stable government in the Philip
pine Islands in less time that the republi-
can party has established one in Cuba, and
that I think / can promise you that our
officials would not embezzle as republican
officials have embezzled Cuban money
To the third question, he answered that
in his speech of acceptance 1t was proposed
to give them independence as soon as their
stable government is established. The
phrase and las SOON means Immediate
ly' in our language; don't know what it
means in republican. and answering the
fourth question, he said:
''1f the questioner had read my speech
he would have seen that there was no limit
on the protectorate, and we believe that
this nation can assert the doctrine that
when this nation helps a republic to stand
upon its feet the ground whereon 1t stands
is holy ground, and that king shall ever
set his foot on it,
On the fifth question, relative to paying
the obligations of this government in sill
yer gold if elected President. he said:
Il want the republicans who want that
question answered to first find out what
the law requires, and then I want them
to know that If elected President will en-
force that law just as I will enforce the
on big thieves as well little thieves. But
If you ask me to construe a republican law,
1 reply that l shall not construe a law I'M
til 1t becomes my duty to enforce it,

engineer, has recommended to the District
Commissioners favorable action upon the
request of the Anacostia and Potomac River

line of their road from Anacostia to Con-
gress Heights, and also to string copper
wire from the end of the double tracks on

not for any other purpose His recommen-
dation is expected to receive the approval
of the Commissioners.

Refuse to Sell Farms.
Some difficulty has been experienced in
carrying on current work. owing to ex-
tended dredging operations being carried on
by the United States engineers in the vi
cinity. and several complaints have been
made by the residents CT farm some three
miles below the station Of annoyance due
to firing heavy guns down the river. The
bureau has endeavored to lease their prop
erty. with view to its purchase when
funds should be available. but the owners
have refused to lease 1t, and demand an ex-
orbitant price for Its purchase; hence. it
may become necessary to secure 1t by con-
demnation.
The smokeless powder factory was COM
now in good working order, and a moderate
quantity Of satisfactory powder Is being
turned out daily. and at very moderate
cost. Some delay was caused by defects in
the hydraulic presses, which have since
been remedied. and the work was neces-
sarily slow at first. due to the fact that the
industry was new and the employees not IA
miliar with it. Some additions are being
made to the nitrating plant and some addi-
tional presses are being made, as these
parts of the plant were not equal to the rest
of the establishment.
The railroad bed has been regarded and
| ballasted, and the grounds Enclosed by
substantial wire fence 3.S miles long.
Additional quarters are required at the
station for the officers. also dispensary
and new ehronograph and record build
ing and items have been included in the
annual estimates for these purposes.
1.-THE general condition of the establish
ment is good.
"A new emplacement for the heaviest gun
mounts has been constructed, and a new
cast-steel firing platform for the smaller
high power guns has been ordered.
"A new Cotton locomotive crane has been
purchased, and is of great service
