al Full Vintlication


The following special from Wash
ington was printed in the Phila-
delpllia Public Ledger Saturday
morning The Ledger is one the
most conservative newspapers in
the United States. and The Com
mercial Appeal reproduces the spe-
cial for what it may be worth:
Washington, Nov. %. The per-
sistent industry of the three admi-
rails constituting the Schley court
of inquiry has nearly completed the
task OF going over and digesting
the mass of testimony taken in the
course Of the recent trial The
judges have spent portion of their
time in discussing the main points
Of the case from time to time as
they have progressed with the con-
sideration of the case. While the
deliberations of the tribunal are ex-
ecutive, and have been we'll guard
ed under system of military dis
cipline, one or two things have oc-
CURED to afford a basis of exPec-
tation as to the final result. Ad-
miral Dewey has taken the position
firmly that he will not sign any
verdict that in any way censures
Admiral Sehley. The other mem.
bers of the court, Admiral Benham
and Admiral Ramsey, have not
taken this decided position. but, so
far as they have expressed their.
conclusions, It is understood they
viii no doubt join in the Ultimate
vindicat,on Of Scliley.
When the court adjourned after
the completion Of the record il was
surmised from the character Of the
questions submitted by Admiral
Benham that he had practically
reached the belief that Schley was
censurable for the retrograde move
meut. If the Information as to Adj
miral Dewey's opinion is true, il
would seem that he can see in the
circumstances OF that movement no
ground for criticism Of the com-
mander-in-chiefof the flying squad
ron. Those who profess to know
the reasons which actnate Admiral
Dewey say that be has been unable
to look at the accusations made
against Schley from any other
standpoint than his own feelings
wlleu undergoing the fearfuiIy con
centrated responsibilities Of COM
handing a squadron il battle The
uncertainties and perplexities that
beset Sclley at Cienfnegos and
he has compared with his
own experiences in sailing into Ma
mia bay. although he did SO with a
map in his hand betraying the
course left free from mines by the
as a means Of exit for
their own ships. There is good
reason to believe that Admiral

ment OF a republic with Dawson as
its capital
According to the details of the
story. arms, ammunition and pro.
visions have been taken in over the
railroad and caiched at strategic
points. Prominent American resi-
dents Of Skagway are said to be
ringleaders in the conspiracy. Mi
ners 70 the number Of 5000 are
said to wait the summons to arms
ready to fight for independence
from Dominion rule of the gold
fields, camps and towns.
The plan IS to overpower the
mounted police, arrest the civil au-
thorities and take the government
into their own hands. The rigors
of the Arctic winters would give
the insurgents six months immu-
nifty from attack by Canadian or
British troops. aud the adventu-
rous arch-conspirators hope for in
tervention or outside assistance by
the time melting of ice and snow
will permit the invasion Of their
isolated republic.
Il is further related that a hur-
ried conference, lasting until mid
night, was held at Skagway, No
yember S, at which were present
Capt. Corrigan, OF the Northwest
mounted police. who had arrived
from across the Canadian border
late that evening; Judge Brown,
United States Marshal Frederick
and Maj. Hosey. commanding the
United States troops at Skagway.
This was the last of several
hasty consultations between the
civil and military representatives
of the two powers in relation to the
mysterious smuggling Of supplies
into the interior and the reported
conspiracy to lead the miners IN a 4
revolt against the Dominion Gov
eminent in the Northwest Terri
tory. Those present maintained
the strictest silence concerning the
evidence laid before them and their
helpeak to confirm the ru-
mors Of conspiracy.
Capt. Corrgan took train back
across the border the next morn
ing, while United States Marshal
Shoupe embarked on the first
teRmer for Seattle. which port he
cached several days ago. The OBJ
ect of his VISIT was presumably TO
onfer by telegraph with the au-

Cock-Fighting IN the Philippines

OoCA-1 ABublub IN tue ENt4llplu6Ss
The Cincinnati Commercial Tri-
bune suggests that the order for
the suppression Of cockfghting id
the Philippine Islands may be de-
gree too advanced in the effort to
reform the Filiplnos and bring them
into friendly acquiescence in the
American rule. There is no doubt
that cock fighting is 4 denoraiizing
sport, but the difficulty of bringing
the untutored Filipino mind to an
adequate conception of its harm-
.fulness, viii doubtless be great, and
the introduction of his favorite
amusement may appear to him an
act of oppression and tyranny not
calculated to strengthen his love for
the new rule.
The Commercial Tribune says
the time is not far gone when cock
lighting was as much lndrlged in
England as bull-ighting in Spain.
That is true, and the American
people can bring the practice closer
home than the habits of their Eng
lish ancestors. Cock-ighting was
common in Virginia in George
Washington's time. 1t continued
to be practiced in the Southern
States generally until a recent date.
and even now may sometimes be
heard of in remote communities and
hidden corners that escape the vi.
ligauce of the law. It would be
chimerical and quixotic to attempt
at once to bring the moral tone of
the Filipinos up to the highest
American standard. The endeavor
would necessarily create friction
ind animositis.s which it Is desir-
lble to avoid.
The greatest mistakes that have
,ver been made in attempts togvw-
,rn remote people come of the
,art Of the rulers to take cogniz-
Ince Of the difference in the ideas,
;ustoms and manners of those
whom they sought to govern and
heir own conceptions of propriety
md right. Mistakes of this kind
'ught to be avoided in the Philip
lines as far as possible. The
moral elevation OF the people can
'est be brought about by example
nd missionary instruction.
1t may be inferred, however, that
he American officials in charge in
he PHILIPPINES know what they are
Ding. They are on the ground
nd their judgment should be bet |
Ell than that Of those some ten
thousand miles away. Cock-fght-
ng is cruel and demoralizing Not
lore SO, perhaps, than prlze-hght-
ng, and if it can be stopped with
ut creating resentment and a re- .
elllous feeling among the people
