AGU|NALDO ANXIOUS 70
VISIT UNITED STATES.
SAYS HE DOES NOT CARE TO HOLD
OFFICE, BUT WOULD LIKE TO
RETIRE TO PRIVATE LIFE.
THE PRESIDENTS INVITATION
TO VISIT AMERICA SAID TO HAVE
BEEN GIVEN TO THE FORMER
I~NSURGENT LEADER.

MANILA, April 3.-Chief Justice
Arellano, who administered to Emilio
Aguinaldo the oath Of allegiance to
the United States government, de-
scribed to a representative of the
Associated Press the conditions lead
ing up to and attending the ceremony,
which was semi-private:
Aguinaldo, still detained in an apart
ment Of the Malacanan palace and
awaiting orders from Washington, had
expressed himself as anxious to learn
more regarding the American system
of government and had asked Chief
Justice Arellano to enlighten him. The
chief justice carefully explained the
various measures passed by the Phil
ippine commission, headed by Judge
Taft, and showed him what provisions
were made for education and progress
and for municipal and provincial self
government.
Listening with deep interest, Aguin-
aldo finally exclaimed:
Il never believed the Americans
would be so fair and LIBERAL"
Before the conversation had ended,
he had agreed to take the oath of al
%legiance, and this was Immediately ad-
ministered.
Senior Arellano says:
"Aguinaldo's action will induce all
the insurgents to surrender, and | pre-
dict that the islands will be complete
ly pacifed by June.
"Aguinaldo is eager to visit the
United States, but when l questioned
him OF the subject Of holding Office, he
replied that he had no desire in that
direction, and intended to retire to pri-
vate life after a trip to America"
1t is reported here this evening
that President Mckinley has invited
Aguinaldo to visit the United States,
and that the former insurgent leader
may sail from Manila April 18th. Gen.
Macarthur, when questioned regarding
the rumor, said he had absolutely moth

LAYING A FOUNDATION
FOR A GRAVE CONFLICT.
RUSSIA PLACING HERSELF IN A
POSITION TO BRING ABOUT
OPEN HOSTILITIES.
THE PLEA AS TO MANCHURIA
LAW, AND BOUND TO LEAD
TO TROUBLE.

WASHINGTON, April 3.-The st.
Petersburg dispatch to the Associated
Press printed this morning has arous-
cd interest in official circles here. For
the same reason that prevented the
correspondent from quoting any au-
thority in the Russian government as
a source of the suggestion contained
in his dispatch, it is not possible to
cite official authority for the comment
that has been passed here upon the
suggested Russian plea.
This plea in brief, is that the action
of the powers in opposing the Man
ehurian agreement will make it i'm
possible for Russia to leave Manchuria
at all. The comment upon this sug-
gested plea is that Russia deliberately
proposes to commit a greater offense
in the permanent seizure of Manchurla
if the powers will not connive at a
lesser one, in allowing her to make a
secret and private agreement with
China. This plea, it is said, would
tbe laughed out of any court Of inter
national law, Sc d~isingenious is it.
Russia is displeased because the pow
ers discouraged China from signing the
agreement; yet Russia herself joined
with the other powers in undertaking
to avoid any such private arrangement
involving the acquisition of Chinese
territory. Even if she persists, even
if she forces China to sign the Man
churian agreement, there is no obliga-
ton upon the powers, and certainly not
upon the United States, to whom this
Russian pledge was given, to look upon
it as binding at any point. BY the
same reasoning, should Russia, failing
to secure an agreement, continue in
Manchurla beyond a reasonable time,
there is no obligation upon any power
to respect her title and it may be pre-
dicted that this subject will lead to
controversy of the gravest character.

The Republicans elected the balance
of the ticket with the exception Of two
Councilmen. Hughes ran considerably
behind the rest of the ticket.
Results Of municipal elections over

hibitory sentiment is still in the as

worth the temperance issue was not
brought up city Improvements and
other questions taking the precedence.
In Wichita the temperance people made
a fight for supremacy but polled only

candidates were on a law enforcement
platform and their election is. there

Clears Up Promised Difficulty.

Minister Alien MaktS n FepoFt tuAt
Clears Up Promised Difficulty.
WASHINGTON, April "a cable
gram has been received at the State
Department from United States Min
lister Allen at Seoul. stating briefly
that the McLevy Brown difficulty has
been satisfactorily adjusted. Brown
was an Englishman charged with the
management of the Corean customs
department, and it was reported that
he had been removed under Russian
influence. Although DR.. Allen does
not state directly the basis of settle
ment, it is known that his sympathies
were strongly with Brown, so it Is be-
lieved that the official must have been
reinstated.
The immediate result of this settle
ment is to remove what promises to
be an ugly issue between the United
States and Russia, for the American
minister's report shows clearly that
Browns removal would have seriously
injured American commercial interests
in Corea.
