JAPAN BRAcING UP.
Preparations Point to Adoption of Strong
Foreign Policy.

Toxic, March 29-The newspapers
here say it is proposed to relieve the
Japanese troops in the Chinese prov
ince Of Pe-Chi-Li by a force so per
cent stronger. Although May is the
usual month in which the relief of the
force at Seoul takes place, the relief
of the troops here will take place i'm
m%ediately. Three officers Of the
headquarters staff will also proceed
to Corea. These movements, with
the unusual activity at the a~rsenals, is
taken to point to the adoption Of a
strong policy by Japan.

RESULTS AS EXPECTED

Manila, March 29-Aguinaldo today
conferred i'll the Tagalog language with
former members of his cabinet and
other prominent F%ilipinos, who ex-
planned to him the hopelessness of
the insurgent cause and advised him
to use his influence to establish peace
and for recognition of American SOW
ereignty. The result of the conference
is not known.
Some hours elapsed before the news
of Aguinaldo's capture was generally
known. The fact that he was a pris-
oner caused joy and congratulations
among the Americans. The native
population was apathetic. There was
no particular excitement.
After being convinced of Agui-
naldo's capture, General Geronimo,
the insurgent leader in the province
of Morong, Luzon, has surrendered
with six officers, As men and SO rifles
to Colonel j. Milton Thompson Of the
Thirty-second regiment at San Mateo.

The former insurgent officers and

also been recommended that every
man participating in the capture of
A%guinaldo receive 2 special medal.

REWARD FOR FUNSTON

Washington, March 29-The ques-
ton as to how General Funston will
be rewarded for his services in captur-
ing the head and front of the Philip
pine insurrection, continues to be a
topic of discussion in all official
circles.
In view of General MacArthur's
specific recommendation. Endorsed by
General Wheaton, that General Fun
ston be appointed a brigadier general
in the regular army, there seems to be

Vienna, March 3O-A semi.oficial
publication states that England, Ger

notes to Russia and China warning
them that signing of the Manchurian
agreement will involve partition of
China. This combined action deters
Russia from insisting OH signature of

France declined to cooperate with
the others, but intimated to Russia
that she would regard conclusion of

GRoUTY OLD REVIEW.
London Publication Is Still Discussing
Nicaraguan Canal.

London, March 29-The Saturday
Review, discussing the N%icaraguan
canal controversy in a page article
says: There is little hope for the
United States doing the agreeable to
England and if the American govern
ment should persist in defiance of its
pledges, in attempting to obtain ex-
elusive control of a canal whose neu-
trality is of the highest Importance to
the whole world, there would be only
one course open. The rest Of the
world must take steps to protect itself.
The article alludes to american
aggression and advocates united

no doubt in we'll informed quarters
that the president will meet promptly
the popular demand III this matter,
and appoint General Funston to one
of the existing vacancies in the list Of
brigadier generals. The only objection
made to such action is that it would
shut out all officers Of the army below
the grade of %brigadier general from
possible appointment to the head Of
the army. 1t is stated that this con
dition Of affairs would be due to the
possibility that General Funston
might have command of the army un
til after all of his present military as
sociates had retired for age. Although
such a contingency is possible, it is Ok.
tremely improbable.
If appointed he would be the young
est general officers in the army, and if
promotions were made by seniority,
eventually would become the lieuten-
ant general and hold that office for
many years. But under the law, the
president selects all the general officers
and is not even confined to the army
in making them. Although a briga-
der general naturally would be select
ed for promotion to a vacancy in the
list of major generals, the president,
if he chose, might appoint a civilian
or al officer of the army, regardless of
his rank.
The same wide range of selection
also applies to the lieutenant gen
eralcy, notwithstanding the popular
impression. that the senior major gen.
eral legally is entitled to be promoted.

DISCUSSING HIS FATE

Washington. March 29-The view
Of a majority of the cabinet is that the
time is not ripe to decide what course
should be pursued in the disposition
of Aguinaldo. 1t is felt that some
little time should elapse to permit an
opportunity to deliberate carefully
over what course would prove the
wisest, whether he can be of any SER
vice to the United States government
at Manila by exerting his influence in
the direction Of peace, whether 1t
would be dangerous to permit him to
remain SO close to the field of insurrec-
tion, or whether even it would be hest
to send him among the other insurgent
prisoners on the island of Guam.
There is no disposition to deal other
wise than leniently with him, but
there are various questions that will
have to be considered in the case, as
for instance, whether he personally in
stigated the assassinations of Ameri-
cans and similar offenses, which some
of the members of the cabinet feel call
for some penalty. It cannot be to
emphatically stated that the admins
train will avoid giving the captured
leader any basis for posing as a
martyr.
The matter of transporting him to
Guam will receive serious considera-
ton. The trend of views as expressed
by the cabinet indicated that ultimate
transportation to some place of con-
finement outside of the Philippines
was the course most likely to be
adopted.

GOVERNOR DOLE
Noted Woman suffrasist Says Ha-

From the San Francisco Examiner,

Mrs. Helen III. Cougar and her nus
band, John D. Cougar, arrived yes
terday at the Occidental from Hawaii,

Mrs. Cougar does not approve OF
Governor Dole She has this to say:
IT think that Governor Dole should
be removed. not on political. but on

is a human slave pen, where 800
women are kept for immoral pur-
poses. They are managed by cor

WAS FORMERLY MISS BRANDT.
story of Mrs. IsobeI b. Walkers d.
vOrce Case.

VOrce Case.
An Associated Press dispatch to the
Morning News Wednesday announced
the beginning Of divorce proceedings in
New York by Mrs. IsobeI B. Walker,
nee Brandt, against her husband, John
Brisben Walker, Jr., son of the owner of
the Cosmopolitan Magazine and head Of
the locomobile industry at Irvington-on-
the Hudson. The case has local interest
in Savannah, where Mrs. Walker was
we'll known before her marriage, as
Miss Belle Brandt, daughter Of Mr.. Carl
L. Brandt, director of the Telfair Acad-
envy of Arts and Sciences. The New
York Journal prints the following report
of the domestic troubles of Mr.. and Mrs.
Walker, Jr.:
Absolute divorce is asked for by the
young wife of John Brisben Walker Jr,
son of the magazine editor, in papers
filed with the Westchester county clerk
at White Plains. Mrs. Walker asks for
the custody of their one child, Isabel
Strother Walker. four years old: for ali
mony and for permission to resume her
maiden name. Mrs. Moore, of No. 81
Newbury street, Boston, Mass, is named
as correspondent.
Mrs Walker is a daughter Of Carl L.
Brandt, the artist, whose home is at
Hastings, and is very pretty. She met
young Walker at a reception given at
the house of the late Henry Willard. he
was then-in 1862 years old, and she a
year younger He lived with his parents,
at Irving top-on-the Hudson, where the
automobile company of which the elder
Walker is president, is located.
when the young couple announced
their engagement their parents agreed
that the wedding must not occur for a
year. This precipitated a romance with
at least one unique feature.
ION Aug. %, 1895, about two months af-
ter the beginning of this year of proba-
ton young Walker, accompanied by his
mother, left Irvington for a trip 40 this
city. When the train stopped at Hast
ings Mrs Brandt and her daughter en-
tered the same car. The quartet left the
train together at the Grand Central Sta
ton. After that it was not long before
the young people found an opportunity
to lose their parents. The next the moth
ers heard of their children was in tele-
grams from Washington telling of their
marriage.
Mrs. Walkers complaint in her suit
for divorce states that she was married
at Westwood, N. ]. She charges that
during the month of August. 1900, and
prior TO that date her husband and the
woman named as correspondent lived at
the boarding house of Mrs. Jennie Rein
hard, in Boston, under the name of Mr.
and Mrs, Moore.
IAN order of Justice Keogh appointed
John F. Coffin as referee to take testi-
mony in the divorce suit He also ap-
pointed Robert L. Raymond OF Boston, as
a commissioner to take testimony of Mrs.
Renhard.
THE husband enters a general denial
OF all the charges. He is living with his
parents at Irvington-on-the-H Hudson. He
is an enthusiastic automobiles and a
well-knoWn golf player on the links of
the ArdsleV Casino ;,
