WASHINGTON, Oct. ga considera-
ole part of the cabinet meeting today
was devoted to a consideration of the
military situation in the Philippines. The
meeting was attended by all the members
and all participated in the discussion.
The subject was brought to the attention
OF the president and cabinet by Secretary
Root. Conditions in the island of Samar
have led the war department to consider
the propriety of stopping for the time
pelng the reduction in the Philippine
army through the discharge of enlisted
men, whose terms are expiring How
ever, after hearing Secretary Roots re-
port and discussing the situation thor
oughly, the cabinet decided that there
was no present occasion to suspend the
reduction in the forces in the Philippines
Inc original policy therefore will prevail
and 1t will be necessary, it is understood.
to send to the Philippines at once the
haH dozen regiments selected for the
service last week. Secretary Root said
that the sporadic outbreaks at isolated
points in the islands would be dealt with
properly as they arose, and additional
troops to meet these small emergencies
scarcely would be needed
The president announced that he had
completed practically the Thanksgiving
proclamation, and it would be promul-
gated in a few days.
While no public statement has been
made on the subject, it is known that
President Roosevelt has nearly completed

The weapon was then lowered ana the
men made a cheap purchase. ',ney re-
peated these tactics at another store
with the result that the village constable
soon had them under arrest. They gave
their names as S. E. Stewart, of St. PAU,
and F. A. Johnson, of Beldon. They were
both young, while it was apparent there
was no real intention of holding up the
citizens, yet such sport was frownad upon
to the extent Johnson was fined $40 and
Stewart sent to Jail for twenty days.
The matter of establishing a city poor
house is being agitated. It is claimed
that the poor could BE cared for more

manner than by committing them to the

FRIENDLY TO BEET SUGAR.
Twin City, Jobbers mourning Dis
pleasure of Sugar Trust,

Twin City. JObbers mourning Dis
pleasure of Sugar Trust.
IF the jobbers of ST. Paul and Mime
apolls are not careful they are likely tc
incur the displeasure of the American
Sugar refinery. Franklin Sugar refinery
and other manufacturers of th,. saechar-
Inc product that are in sympathy with
the trust, because of their pres ellt friend
ly attitude to the various beet sugar fac
tories, especially the Minnesota Beet Sug-
ar concern, located at st. Louis Park
1t is claimed that at the present time
the trusts are selling none of their prod
uct in this market, because Wholesalers
prefer to handle beet sugar on account
OF II belng from ~ to 10 cents hundred
pounds cheaper than the finer grades
Previous years the beet sugar did not
cut very much of a figure in this market.
but this year there is going to he a
greater amount of it manufactured, and
1t is bound to keep out the higher priced
sugar, unless the trusts can intimidate
the jobbers and make them believe their
interests are best served in handling trust
sugars.
1t is claimed that the trusts have al
ways favored the jobbers, in extending
them good credit and carrying large
assortment of spot stock, which relieved
the lobpess OF carrying any great quanti-
ty. 1t is also claimed that the beet sugar
is sold on practically the same margin
as the standard grades, and under these
circumstances there is no advantage in
handling it.
The war will continue to go merrily on
until there is some definite settlement of
the question. Last year Michigan manu-
featured about 1,S00 cars of beet sugar
minnesota about 100 cars. This year
Michigan will turn out from present in
dications, 1900 cars, and the estimate for
Minnesota has not yet been given out,
but it is fair to presume that it will be
nearly double last year, and with this
market the scene of battle, it is hard to
tell what the outcome will be.
1t may be decline in price all around,
or Michigan may be compelled to un-
load her surplus elsewhere, as Minnesota
event. 10

G. H. PARTRIDGE DENIES BEING A
CONGRESSIONAL CAN
DIDATE
WOULDN'T ACCEPT NOMINATION
Says His Business Interests Will Not
Allow Him to Think of
Running for the
Office.

A representative of the G o b called
upon George H. Partridge yesterday In
regards to his being a candidate for con-
gress on the Democratic ticket from the
Fifth district, as announced by one of the
morning papers.
Mr.. Partridge said:
1T is really too absurd for comment.
l don't know where such a story could
have had its inception. The matter has
never even been limited at to me-"
Mr.. Partridge was then asked if he
would accept such a nomination if ten
dered and said: Positively, under no cir
cumstances would I allow my name to
go on the ticket. My business interests
would not permit of any such arrange
mentS.
Mr.. Partridge further said that he
would prefer to have the papers say moth
ing further about the matter as it was so
entirely impossible that a denial would
make him appear ridiculous.
The feeling among large element of
the business men of Minneapolis, regard
less of political utilization, is that if Mr..
Partridge could be induced to make the
run his election would be foregone con-
clusion, as he has such a large following
of influential friends and the stand he has
always taken for the welfare of Mime
apolis would make him a great favorite
with all classes for political preferment.
