connected with the sale of the New York
custom house site 10 the National City
Bank and TO the disposition made of the
proceeds. BY the acts of his predecessors
and the rulings of the Comptroller of the
Treasury he would show that he had a
perfect right TO deposit the proceeds from
this sale in qualified government deposito-
ries and that moneys so deposited to the
credit OF the treasurer of the United
States are in the treasury, just as much
as though they were actually on deposit
in the vaults at Washington.
The legal prohibition against depositing
public funds in bank repositories secured
by government bonds, the Secretary de-

sEvgRIDoE MAKES HIS sP :EcH.

McKinley,s Philippinc Policy.

Senator from Judinna Voices Praise of
McKinIey's Philippine Policy.
Senator Beveridge in the Senate Tues
day made his long anticipated maiden
speech, sustaining the administration IN
its Philippine policy. Senator Beveridge
opened his speech by the statement that
the times call for candor. He said the
Philippines are territory belonging to the
United States" forever. The speaker ar
gued that if it proves n mistake to hold
the territory, the error can be corrected
when we will: every other nation stands
ready to relieve u.s. He went on To ar
que that the Pacific is our ocean; that
China is our national customer and the
Philippines is the door of all the east.
With long prelude as TO the resources
of the islands, the climate, character of
the people and Aguinaldo, in which he
said they were "a barbaric race modified
by three centuries OF contact with de-
cadent race" the speaker began his ar
guments on true military policy. lie
referred TO the proposed cessation of hos
tilities as "a false peace which will be-
tray us: sham truce that will curse
us" Then he argued that in the efforts
TO secure peace the mistake has been
kindness on the part of this nation. mo"
he said. friendly methods have been
thoroughly tried only TO make peace more
difficult There is not now. nor never
was, any possible course but ceaseless
operations in the field and loyal support
of the war at home
In the beginning of his address he had
referred to the unlimited resources of the
islands and cited the fact that "Spain's
export and import with the islands unde-
veloped was So, 173. $40 annually" He
continued with the statement that the
people were indolcnt and offered no COM
petition with the labor of the United
States. Mr.. Bcveridge next branched off
into suggestions as 10 the plan Of gov
ernment needed in the Philippines; it
should be simple and strong, for in deal
ing with the Filipnos we deal with chill
dren." He recommended a philippine
civil service. with promotion for eff

CLEVER BOER RUSE.
SOUNDED THE "RECALL" FOR
BRITISH TROOPS.
English Obeyed the Bugle and Left
Their Comrades to Be Surrounded
General Gatacre Promptly Shoots a
False Guide-Wauchope's Death.

There was no cause for London to
complain of lack of news from South AZ
rica Monday morning. The most i'm
portant dispatches that had come over
the cables in many days were given out
Sunday night by the war Office. One
piece of information contained the de-
tails of another British blunder, or which
amounts to the same thing--of the sue
cess of a brilliant bit of Boer strategy.
During the progress of an attack on the
Beers at Colesburg by some of Gen.
French's command the Beers demonstrate
ed their acquaintance with the British
bugle calls. They sounded the ''recall, "
and three companies of four of the Suf-
folks, which had just been ordered to
charge, obeyed the order, leaving the re-
naming company unsupported These
were surrounded and taken prisoners by
the Beers.
Telegrams from Rensburg say seven
officers and thirty men of the Suffolks
were killed and that about fifty were cap
tured. Gen. Frenchs announcement that
the Essex regiment has been sent to re-
place the Suffolks is more bitter to the
latter's friends than the list of casual
ties, as the only inference deducble from
this fact is that the Suffolks disgraced
themselves and their flag by boiling and
leaving a few of their more stanch COM
rades to fill the Pretoria jails.
Lord De La War;, in a graphic de-
scription of the battle of Magersfontein,
says:
1T is useless to disguise the fact that
