rant For Statehood.
GREAT ENTHUSIASM AT Ell PLS0.

DEMING, n. NJ, May Shorty aft
er leaving FL Psso the train crossed the
line into New Mexico and ran through
the grazing section Of the territory. 1t
was a hot and dusty ride. The first stop
In the territory was made at Deming,
where the president was welcomed by
Governor Otero and his staff. There was
a big crowd and q band at the station,
and the president was given a warm
greeting.
W. NJ Berger, president of the New
Mexico Press association, had met the
party at El Paso and accompanied the
train across the territory. The address
of welcome Mt Deming was largely de-
voted to New Mexico's claim for state
hood. A broad banner above the train
read, New Mexico Demands STATE
hood"
The reception to the president at Fl
Paso was not only one of great enthusi-
asm, but il had the singular feature OF
being international in character. The
cordiality of the distinguished Mexican
officers did not end with their formal call
on Mr.. Mckinley Sunday, when they pre-
scented warm greetings from President
Diaz. They rode in the procession OF
carriages through the city yesterday, join
of El Paso in honoriAg the president Of
the United States.
From the time that President McKin-
iey's special train rolled int the Eel Paso
station until it left for New Mexico and
Arizona 1t seemed as il the honors OF en-
tertainment at this border town were al
most equally divided between the Ameri-
cans and the Mexicans.
The carriage drive through the princi-
pal streets OF the city began at o o'clock
local time). They have four standards
Of time In Ell Paso. At the head of the
procession was the presidents carriage,
drawn by four coal black Texas horses
and escorted by various bands and mill
tary and civic organizations that extend
ed for nearly a mile along the line of

There was a Mexican military band
ordered here for this occasion by the
governor of chihuahua, a Republican

numerous other organizations.
The town turned out Its whole popula-
ton. The cheering was constant all
along the line, and the cowpunchers in
the parade gave vent to their enthusiasm
with tremendous yells which were echoed
and re-echoed from the crowd on the
streets, in the windows and on the tops
of buildings. The carriage drive was in
terrupted at the principal square in the
center of the city, where a stand had been
erected, and the president addressed a
cheering cosmopolitan multitude.

VIII Reduce Force tn 100000.

WASHINGTON, May 6.-After a
careful consideration of the situation in
the Philippines as it exists today the ad-
ministration has decided to reduce the
army in the islands to 10000 men. The
opinion prevails here that this number
will be ample for the present needs Of
the service in the islands, and IL coDdi-
tions continue to improve in the salts
factory manner that has been shown In
the past few months the force may be
reduced still further. The expectation
of the war department is that all the
volunteers now In the Philippines will
have left the islands by the end of June,
leaving only the regulars on duty there.
Following the departure of volunteers
will come the regulars who were sent to
Manila in 1898 just after the outbreak of
hostilities, and their movement home will
continue until the force is reduced to ap-
proximatcly 10000 men.

Wheat I'm China.

The greater part of the wheat
grown in China is winter wheat,
planted in the fall. 1t is not sown
in large tracts, as in the United
States, but planted in small lots of
a fraction of an acre. 1t is in many
cases planted by dropping about
three grains in a hole and putting
few ashes in each hill. It IL hoed
and weeds are pulled out by hand.
When ripe it is cut close to the ground
or pulled out by the roots. The
threshing is done by fails on the
ground. The grain is gathered up,
with large percentage of dirt, and
sold without being cleaned. Another
method of threshing is to whip the
grain over a row of sticks placed on
a box. The wheat is not cleaned be-
fore 1t reaches the mill, and when
ground in the native mills much of
the dirt is ground into the -four, so
that IL is gritty.

Murderers Sentenced.

MANILA, May THE island Of
Samar, one of the Visayan group, has
been transferred from the department
commanded by General Wade to that
commanded by General Hughes. Gen
eral Hughes has been ordered personally
to Samar, and if he is unsuccessful in
negotiating the surrender of the insur
gent general Lukban the force of Ameri-
c:eH troops in Samar will be largely in
creased, and a vigorous offensive cam
paign will be inaugurated.
The report of Colonel Charles r.
Greenleaf, head of the medical depart
ment in the Philippines, which has just
been forwarded to Washington, shows
the percentage of sick among the troops
in the islands to be only 5 %. This is
less than the usual percentage, which in
the Philippines has formerly been from
to 49,
The military authorities have prepar-
ed a schedule and forwarded the same
to Washington, covering the sailing dates
Of the ten regiments of volunteers still
in the archipelago. Unless unforeseen
delays arise the last Of these regiments
will reach home before June 80.
The commission is preparing amend
ments to the form OF provincial govern
ment which are a direct result of their
experiences during their recent visit to
the provinces.
The liberation and transportation of
the 1000 Filipinos set free by General
Macarthur to signalize the issuance Of
Aguinaldo's proclamation have been near
~ completed. The liberation of another
thousand prisoners to celebrate General
iinio's surrender will begin this week.
The prevalence Of lawlessness in isolat-
ed localities is well illustrated by the in
yestigations of military commission un-
der Lieutenant Colonel Howe of the
Thirty-fourth volunteer infantry, which
has sentenced eight members of the Son
datahan society, who were guilty Of the
murders Of 30 men and women, to suffer
the death penalty on May II.
General Sumner has returned with his
column of 800 men which proceeded
