WASHINGTON LETTER.
Irregular Correspondent
WAsHINGToN, june Is, 1900.

MIR, Mckinley must have doubts
Of the ability Of Hanna to carry out
the programme in Philadelphia,
which he has y. KID. That is the
only explanation OF the very bad
taste he has shown in sending two
members Of the misunderstanding
Root and Postmaster General Smith
to Philadelphia, TO help Hanna
manipulate the Republican Conven-
ton. Smith carried the platform,
which he wrote under orders from
Mr.. Mckinley and Hanna, that
will be adopted by the Convention,
and Roots special bueiness is to
see that Boss Platt doesn't get in
his threatened monkey business
with the Vice Presidential portion
Of the HANNAH Mckinley programme.
If we haven't sufficient number
Of troops in the Philippines to keep
the Filipinos in subsection, how are
we going to be able to send lot
of them to China to help the Euro
peans whip the Chinese "boxers"
into subsection? That is the prob
lem which now confronts Mr.. Nc.
Kinley and his Cabinet. And after
this government helps the European
government knock out the boxers
and set up new Chinese govern
ment, what will come next? That
is the problem which may, in the
very near future confront the Amer
ican people. Are we ready to as-
sumo any new responsibilities for
the government of more Asiatics
Have we not already more OF that
sort Of thing than is desirable?
He is very gullible chap indeed,
who will be convinced by the num-
Der Of national banks organized

enacted by the republican Congress

Tho Republican National Convention
was called to order in Philadelphia,
Tuesday, by Chairman Hanna, of the
National Committee. Senator Wolcott,
of Colorado, was named Temporary
Chairman. The nomination of William
Mckinley for President is foregone
conclusion and indications were that
Gov. Roosevelt, of New York, would be
the choice for Vice President. A pref
ty fight was developing between Sena-
tors Platt and Quay on one side and
Senator Hanna on the other. Mr. Mudd
holds the balance of power in the con-
test between McComas and Master for
the National Committeeship.

that the new law is good thing.
But that seems to be the republican
idea. Periodically since tho law
went into effect, Comptroller Dawes
has given the press a statement
showing the number Of banks, etc.
The last says that 1862 applications
have been made and 159 authorized
to organize, with a total capital of
IS, 645, 900, and that the increase in
National Bank Note circulation has
been $51, 997,910. A careful and
and correct statement of the condi-
ton of these new banks a year or
two from now will be much more
important than the figures now
given out
The administration was greatly
chagrlned by the indifference of
the people of Washington towards
Gen. f. s. Otis, and took especial
pains to add attractions to the re-.
ception given him by the people of
Rochester, N Y, his home city.
Secretary Long sent the full Marine
Band, at public expense, and Sec
rotary Root, virtually ordered Gen.
Joe Wheeler, now an unassigned
Brigadier General in tho regular
army, to go to Rochester to help
add enthusiasm to the occasion.
Mr.. Mckinley has been made to re-
alize, by the indifference OF the
public toward Gen. Otis, how nm
popular his Philippine policy is
with the people, and with the real
ization has come alarm. lie knows
that the people know that the re-
sponsibihty for putting Otis in
command in the Philippines, and
keeping him in command after his
undtness for the position had been
shown up, belongs to VIM. McKin-
ley, and he fears that the people
will be ~ Indifferent towards him
on election day as they have shown
themselves to be towards Otis now.
The spectre OF doubt has become
Mr.. McKinley's constant compan.
ion.

YEARS YET To WAIT.


until there is radical change in the
temper Of the Filipinos, the towns which
are garrisoned will remain 'pacitled only
so long as the garrisons remain. Until
the leaders Of the instruction are put
out of the business the plotting will con.
tinue and attacks will be ordered
an answer to tho question, How soon
can peace be established ? the usual an.
swcr was, At least two or three years.
Certainly ii will be months and perhaps
years before the United States will dare
TO withdraw its garrisons and iutrust
the territory to the civil authorities and
local sentiment. In many provinces
there seems TO btmn Improvement In
conditions. The belligcren,s are re.

trust these amigos
FILrIEos Do Nor BELIEVE Us
mo doubt there are thousands Of
good people in the United States who
are panied and provoked because the
Filipinos have not perceived the lofty
virtue OF our intentions as governing
power and submitted to rs gladly But
this prcsupposes that the Filiplnos are
acquainted with the spirit OF our ins,i-
tutions and can figure from It that we
are cruel only to DC kind The Filipino
Is no mind.rcadeb or course we have
told him that II he surrcndcrs bis arms
aud obeys our instructions IL will be bet
ter for him in the long run, but, unfor.
tunately, the Filipino is convinced that
white men do not tell the truth The
natives regard every fair promise as
some new trick to deceive them In
brief, the effort to coddlo them has not
been successful
EUROPEANS Our FRIENDS,
= "Ilavc we any friends In the islands ?
Yes, the European business element in
Manila and the other ports are In favor
Of American rule because they see in it
the only hope Of stable government
with protection for property interests.
"If we have comparatively no friends
among the natives the reasons are not
hard to discover Assuming that the
Filipinos are incapable Of self-goyorn-
ment ard that the United States really
wishes to deal justly and humancly with
them, there Is still no denying that we
permitted themto believe that they would
be granted their independence, thar later
on we refused 10 consider their claims
and that up TO date We have killed about
$1,000 Of them The only law we have
given them up TO date Is martial law,
which is always hateful. Whatever may
be the facts as TO the outbreak Of Febru-
airy, 1899, the natives blame the Amori-
cans for the present war"

OF each other and represent so many ir-
responsible private enterprises. Col.
Montenegro of the insurgent army, who
surrendered and came into Manila the
other day to renew old friendships, told
me that Aguinaldo, before fleeing from
Tarlac, recognized his army into small
companies and ordered guerrilla war
fare.
FEW MAUsERs SURRENDERED.
THE most significant fact tending to
prove that the Filipinos are not in a
peaceful mood is that the arms used in
the instruction have not been surren-
dered. 1t is estimated that the insur-
gents had a total of $4,000 rifles, most
of them Mausers, with few Springfelds
and Remingtons. Only 5000 or 1000
rifles have been captured or purchased
The government now pays $50 (Mexi-
can) for every rifle turned in by ma
tive. AS a result OF this liberal offer
many old Remingtons and defective
SpIingfields have been given up, but the
natives have not yet begun to turn in
the new Mausers with which they did
their fighting There must be about
$4,000 rifles remaining in the hands OF
The insurgents, and the Americans seem
unable to buy them or capture them. II
is only fair to conclude that the Filipi-
nos are keeping these weapons because
they expect to use them again.
"In the island Of Luzon, at least the
natives who are not prowling around
garrisons waiting to chop up stray
American are keeping alive the reyolu.
tionary sentiment, while they pretend
to be submissive. The same Is true OF
the other regions in which there has
been any resistance to American author
