NATIVE TROOPS TREACHERoUs
why Some Army Officers DO Not Fa-
vOr the Organization of Regi-
ments of Fiiipinos.

Some army officers DO not look with
much favor upon the proposition TO or
ganize regiments of natives of the Phil
ippines. An army officer on duty in the
Philippines in discussing this subject
in letter just received said: II won
der what those who favor this scheme
will say when they hear of the result
of two instances where the natives
were armed by the Americans. One was
in the province of Camarines Sur. where
a native police force of 20 men was
armed and equipped. The first night
after being sworn in and receiving
their arms the natives deserted, bag
and baggage, to the insurgents. The
other instance was that of company
of Macabbees. who were in the service
for year. They hung on until they
had become as well drilled as a native
could be in that length of time They
were thoroughly instructed in the use
of the Krag-Jorgensen rifles. learned
to shoot fairly well, and then deserted
with all the government property in
their possession to their deadly enc
mics, the Tagalogs"

FILIPINO LEADER TALKS.
senor Benito Legarda Declares His
People want Peace with Ameri-
can sovereiRnty Thrown In.

Senior Benito Legarda, a wealthy Fill
pino cigar manufacturer, who was at
one time secretary of the treasury in
Aguinaldo's cabinet. is in Washington.
He has been on Il trip around the world.
He expects to spend a month or two in
travel in the United States before re-
turning to his home in Manila. With
him is Theodore Santos, the 1S-year-old
son of rice planter in the province Of
Pomponga Luzon. Young Santos ex-
poets to stop at Berkeley, Cal, where ne
viii attend the University of Cali
fornia.
Seror Legarda is firm believer in
the necessity of American sovereignty
in the Philippines, and at the same time
he is loyal to his own people. He does
not think they are capable of govern
ING themselves. but he docs believe that
with just administration they will
eventually become just as good citizens
as this country has anywhere.
Senior Legarda said: THE vast ma
jority of the people want peace, and
they want it with American sover-
eighty Much of the trouble which has
been caused out there is due to the
constant talk in the United States of
the ability of the Filipinos to govern
themselves. They are encouraged in
this delusion. If the United States
were TO withdraw its forces there
would De turmoil and revolution. With
out support we would drift backward
instead of forward.
THE Filipinos are capable people.
They want to do the right thing, but
they have much to learn. Give them
the opportunity and they will learn,
and they viii become loyal Americans.
They are willing that American soy
ereignty shall be maintained. but they
do not want continuance of military
administration. They want the estab-
lishment of civil administration,
backed up by military force as far as
may need be. Without a civil govern
ment, with continuance of military
government. a great many soldiers and
a long time will be necessary before
pacfication."
Senior Legarda said the people above
all things wanted the frars done away
with.

SPREADS THE FEVER.
The Mosquito Responsible Alone for
Yellow Fever Contagion.
specIRc Cause of Disease Not Yet
Known, But Investigntion Proves
That the Tiny Insect Industri-
ousIy spreads IL.

An interesting paper was read De-
fore the Pau-American medical con-
gress at Havana. Cuba, by DR.. Reed
on the propagation of yellow fever by
mosquitoes. The specific cause Of yell
low fever still continued unknown, he
said. but the work of the yellow fever
commission at Quemados had conclu-
sively proved, in his opinion, that the
mosquito served as an Intermediary in
conveying the disease, the spread of
which was due to this medium alone.
The commission had concluded. there
fore, DR.. Reed added, that the disinfec-
tion of clothing was not only unneces-
sarv but useless. owing to the impos-
sibility of contagion from such
source.
1.-The experiments Of the commits
sion showed" said DR.. Reed, "that the
mosquito is unable to propagate the
disease until ~ days after being in
fected, and is only infected by biting
a yellow fever patient during the first
two days of the patients illness. The
same result was found by injecting the
blood of yellow fever patient into
healthy system. Blood taken after the
first two days illness does not affect
the second subject.
"The length of time during which d
mosquito can retain the poisonous
germs has not vet been determined;
but an instance came under the OBJ
scrvation Of the commission where
mosquito after 81 days infected a. sub
iect with a pronounced case of yell
low fever. The mosquito of the yellow
fever type is smaller than the mosquito
of the malaria type. 1t is a distinct
species and propagates day and night"
On the motion of Dr. Wilde move
ment has been started to induce all
the American governments TO send del
egates to a congress called particularly
for the purpose of studying yellow
fever. the delegates to remain in ses-
sion several months.
