of Lopez. who declares that he Is op-
posed to fighting with armed resistance
now, but that he hopes to keep up the
contest, believing that the best friends
of the Filipino, and the men most Will
ing TO turn the islands back to the ma
tive Filipinos, are in Boston, and in
his childlike faith believing that the
hub of the Union lies on the back bay,
may again rouse his countrymen To ac-
ton. Similar letters go to Gen. Chaffee
at Manila.
Meanwhile Lopez thinks that he Is
going out to his own country TO carry
on a campaign of education In two
ways. He will try and educate his own
people that they may have a chance
to compete on an intellectual basis with
what he is pleased TO term the "Ameri-
can invader" and wrest the control of
tha .il
of Boston, and in addition to this home
education he proposes TO elevate the
minds of the American people by means
Of series of letters from portions of his
own country. which will be sent broad
cast from the Boston organ OF the Fill
pino enemies of the country Through
this means he hopes to bring the peo-
pie of the country to point where they
will demand the giving of this archipel-
ago to himself and his friends.
Accompanying Lopez is friend who
is on his way about the world, and who
thus has the company of the Filipino
TO Manila, where he will be the guest
of honor during a short stay in the ISL
ands. Mr.. Fiske Warren is one of the
leading business men of the city. and
has been interested in public questions
for many years. He was the first man
in America to run an electric carriage
through the streets, and an accident
caused by the passing of his machine,
brought about the first Massachusetts,

Commenting upon the stoppage of the
automobiles here Mr.. Fiske Warren
said: 1T is perhaps interesting to note
that at the time when the automobiles
here have been put out of commission,
the company which has been operating
such carriages in Boston should have
gone out of business. The company
there had an abundance of capital, the
papers being for a corporation, of s25,-
100000 and yet even with all the money
that could be wished there was no
chance to make the business pay at
all. / was told that the reason for
