livered in this city before large

shock the remark was applauded,

ISLAND ARMY
American Forces in Philippines to be Main
tanned According to Policy Agreed
Upon by President and Secretary
Cabinet Meeting.

WASHINGTON. DC, Oct. 30
At the cabinet meeting yesterday
Secretary Root announced the
policy agreed upon between the
president and himself in regard
to troops in the Philippines.
This policy is to maintain the
army IN the Philippines at from
80. 900 to $4,000, and send new
regiments to take the place of
those depleted by expiration of
enlistments. This is in line with
General Chaffee's recommends
tons, and also those of Ajutant
General Corbin.
The army in thePhilippines now
numbers 10000 men, The terms
of enlistment of 20, 900 men will
expire before the close of the
present fiscal year, and they will
have to be brought home by the
expiration of service. To take
the places of these 10000 men
10, 900 troops will be sent to the
Philippines, so that the army
may not be cut below $4,000.
If the conditions in Samar con.
tinue unsatisfactory the enlist
ment will be continued and more
troops be sent. But Secretary
Root relies on the judgment of
General Chaffee, who does not
anticipate any extension of the
insurrection in Sumar nor any
trouble elsewhere. But he is
not ready to recommend any Sc
rious reduction of his force.
There has been no change in
the plan of the War Department.
Secretary Root has relied upon
the judgment of General Chat
fee, and he is. acting in harmony
with the generals recommends
tons. This has not been a ques-
ton for Cabinet discussion. The
Cabinet has had no voice in the
matter. The president approved
Secretary Roots policy of main
tanning the army in the Philip
pines, as Secretary Root indoors
ed the recommendations of Gen.
ecal Chaffee. The decision was
announced to the Cabinet. That
was all.

NO YIELDING
English Sympathizers with Beers Chars
ed with ProIonSinS the War.-Pres.
ent Policy will be Contiuned'-Re
cent Activities in the Field.

LONDON, Oct. 30.-Speakine
at Cupar. Scotland, yesterday,
Colonial Secretary Chamberlain
said he believed the war in South
Africa would have been over
long ago but for the action OF
misguided people in Great Britin,
who had led the Beers to believe
that # they were only persistent
in their resistance the English
people would grow tired of the
struggle and would give them
what they asked. Chamberlain
AIDED that great as were the sac
rifces which the British had
been called upon to make, and
great as still might be the sacri-
fees demanded of them, they
would not abate one jot of their
resolution until there was nc
doubt as to the future of South
Africa.
A dispatch from Lord Kitch-
ner, dated Pretoria, Oct. %. says
he has received reports of i'm
portant fighting Oct. "a, near
Great Marico river, when De-
larey and Kemp attacked Brit
ish force and were only repulsed
after severe fighting, leaving
forty dead on the field, including
Commandant Omstirheysen. The
British lost twenty eight men
killed and had fifty five wounded
The Beers carried off eight Brit
ish wagons. The Beers appear
to have paid special attention to
the guns, as thirty-seven gun
ners and drivers were killed
and wounded.
Lord Kitchner mentions num-
Der of minor affairs, and says
that since his last weekly report
on Oct. 81, seventyfour Beers
have been killed, sixteen wound
ed, $50 captured, and.there have
been fourty five surrerders.
Lord Kitchner also confirms the
previous report of General
Botha's narrow escape from be-
ing captured.
General French reports that
the Beers in the eastern part OF
Cape Colony continued to avoid
his columns.
A dispatch from Durham, Ma
tai, says Lord Miner, Governor
of the Transvaal and the Orange
River Colony in a speech here
said that speaking in a formal
sense the war may never be over,
but it is burning itself out.
