Yesterdays Church Services Abroad

Yesterdays church services We're
particularly notable throughout the
greater portion of the civilized world
It is doubtful If ever before in history
these exercises assumed so Largely a per
sonal character. Everywhere the death
OF Mr.. Mckinley was the principal sub
ject Of the discourses, and everywhere
was breathed the same feeling Of high
appreciation and tender regard for the
HlustriOUs American so violently and
causelessly stricken down in the very
midst Of his career From Germany
from England, and from all parts of
our own country comes the some story
Of beautiful and impressive observ-
ances. OF loving eulOgy Of the distin-
guished dead, and the singing Of the
hymns which were dear 10 him in life.
In England particularly. the death
Of Mr.. Mckinley seems to have been
taken as a national bereavement The
press dispatches state that there prob
ably was not d single clergyman Off
ciating yesterday in Great Britain who
failed to make reference to the assassi-
nation. while among the cOugregat lions

and others fell beneath the blows Of

when Queen Victoria died. but gener-
ally the expressions have been largely
perfunctory.
In this instance. however. the feeling

confined 10 those in official station. but

more remarkable. too, because in mon

the rule seems to have been reversed

Kinley's public career was virtually
closed by his address at Buffalo in

The News in The Philippines.

In this hour Of national bereavement
the news from Manila is of an espe-
Cially gratifying character-not in ap-
prising US of battles fought and victo-
ries won over armed insurgents. bat
in its assurance that the death Of the
President is not likely to result in any
disturbance Of the peaceful conditions
now prevailing throughout the greater
part Of the Philippine archipelago. 1t
was within the possibilities that the
assassination Of the Chief Magistrate
of the United States might suggest TO
the natives an instability in the
American Government that would en-
courage a relightiug Of the insUrreC-
tiOnary fires now SO nearly extinEuish-
ed. The long connection with Spain
and familiarity with the conditions
prevailing in Spanish American re-
pUbIics, might easily have led many
to conclude that the violent death Of
the President meant, if not the over
throw. at least the weakening Of the
Government.
The advices are to the effect that so
far frCm encouraging fresh hOsuItias,
the resultant feeling among the natives
is one of very general sorrow. Many
Of them are reported as expressing the
belief that the FilipinOs have lost their
best friend. II is pleasant 10 know that
they feel thus. but at the same time
il NAV be we'll for the natives TO be
assured the change viii not affect them
iniuricnsIy. il would be unfortunate
if they imbibed TIE notion that Mr.
Mckinley had been succeeded by a
President less kindly and considerate,
whose ambition or disposition might
lead him TO harsher measures.
The Manila Dispatches inform us
that the Philippine Commission at once
issued a proclamation carefully ex-
planning that the death Of President
Mckinley in no way affects the sta
bility Of the American Government
This is well, but it VIII also be wise for
the Commission 10 give every possible
assurance that It viii lead to no change
OF policy observation-disclosures % the Fill
pinOs- OF course the Commission can
not speak positively with reference to
the details Of President RooseveIts
probable course. but there is no reason
70 believe that in principle it viii de-
part much from that Of his predecessor.
Considering the temperament and con-
dltiOn Of the FiHpin0s. too much care
cannot be taken 20 guard against the
spread Of erroneous ideas among them
upon subjects concerning which they
are peculiarly sensitive But present
conditions are excellent in so far as they
are in any way likely 10 be affected
by the death Of Mr.. Mckinley. and
there is no reason 10 doubt that the
Commission is dealing wisely with this
phase Of the situation.
