The Mnhometan Problem.

New York, July G.-"1he fact that n
million or more Mahometans have been
brought under our flag in the Philip
pines renders statehood or territorial
government for some of the population
of the islands an impossibility for
many years to come" said General
John c. Bates. formerly in command of
the department Of southern Luzon in
an interview here.
''l;elicvcrs in the Koran occupy the
soutncrn half of MindnnaO and the
islands to the sniItlward. Their CON
version to the Christian faith is consld-
cred by many as practically hopeless,
although Jesuit missionaries have gone
among them undauntedly.
'"rhe Mahometans will grow jeal-
ois and hostile ms soon MS the zeal OF
the Christian missionary becomes
greater than his tact. These Mahomct-
ans welcomed our rule. Many of them
practice polygamy. The example OF
the sultan of the Sulus is already IA

violence. Violence cannot be justified

sity of ,equipping American men-of-

man, has resigned. Mr.. Griffith acted
as attorney and agent of several east

tion of any embarrassment or annoy
ance arising out of the many and sour
rilous attacks made upon my private
and official character and conduct by
my personal and political enemies, and
not from any sense of wrong doing on
my part.
Il have no regrets for any Of my ac-
tions, nor do offer any apologies or
excuses; to my mind 1 have done no.
thing calling for apology or excuse. 1
am content to await and abide by the

can Special. .)-Otficinl announcement
was made Monday of the completion
of an immense lead combination, hav-
ing a capitalization of about $4,000
600, which will control the output OF
the lead fields in southwestern Mis-

not yet taken corporate shape, Will be
included the properties Of the Guggen-
helm Exploration Company, the Stand
ard Oil lead mines. the Whitney-Ryan
holdings, those Of the Union Lead and
Oil Company and the Electric Storage
Battery Company, the mines owned by
Grant B. Schley of this city.
The final terms Of the deal were ar
ranged last week, and the scheme now
rests in the hands of attorneys and
others, who will work out the general
plan Of consolidation. The formation
of this immense combination is due to
the efforts of Daniel Guggenheim,
Thomas f. Ryan and William C. Whit
ney. According to estimates made by
one of the interested parties, the out
put of the projected company will be
from 5000 to 5000 tons of pig lead

TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS
IN MISSOURI LEAD COMBINE

In the official announcement 1t Is
stated that the proposed company Will
construct smelters, concentrators anu
refiperies adjacent to the various prop
critics, which will involve the expendi-
ture of millions of dollars.
Denial is made of the assertion that
the new company will be operated III
competition with the American smelt-
ing and Refining Company. Ihe state
ment Is made that the two companies
will not be competitive In one way, us
each is a distinct enterprise.
"Ours is lead proposition" said
one of the promoters of the new com
pany to-day, while the American
Smelling and Refining Company Is

The scheme Of combination of the
various companies holdings into one

lowing it to be operated by another
company, is n novel one. In the pres
ent Instances the capitalists owning
the most valuable lead properties In
the southwestern part Of Missouri, have
agreed to pool their holdings into one
company, which will be given corpor-
ate form In the course of few weeks.
This company does not, as Is usually
the case, become the operating COM
pany, but will transfer its right to the

STATE INSTITUTIONS MAKE

|, hardship or injustice by its provisions.
ANY movement mt this time which
would tie up the funds Of the state for
an Indefinite period, or throw doubt on
the validity of the law, would occasion
disaster to all the state's interests, and
especially to the state Institutions; and
should any hostile movement, through
technicality, finally succeed, extreme
confusion and distress would follow.
This is time when all individuals and
all representatives of corporate inter-
ests have an eminent opportunity to
show the qualities of good citizenship.
and aid the welfare of the state. A
display of exclusive self-interest under
these conditions would appear to be an
act little short of n crime. Therefore,
"Resolved, that we, the representa-
tives Of the twelve state institutions

peal to the representatives Of all prop

from placing the welfare OF the state
