ton of the sale Of opium and intoxi.
cants to uncivilized races. The mem

CHAFFEE'S REPORT.
The Military Governor Sums Up the
Situation In the Philippines.
NO REDUCTION OF TROOPS WANTED.
what Military Government Has Done for
Manlla-The Terrible Disaster Which
Befell Company Q Of the Ninth
Regiment

Washington, Dec. THE war de.
partment yesterday made public the
first annual report Of Maj. Gen. Chat
fee, military governor Of the Philip
pine islands. Gen. Chaffee sums up
the situation in the Philippines from
a military point Of view by stating
that tho provinces Of Batangas and
Laguna, in Luzon, and the islands
of Samar, Mindoro, Cebu and Bohol
constitute the area now disturbed by
any embodied force Of insurgents.
He says that TO the physical charac-
ter Of the country, to the nature Of
the warfare Of the rebels, who are
amigo and foe in the self same hour,
to the humanity Of the troops, which
is taken advantage of by the rebels
and the inhabitants who sympathize
with them, and to the fear Of assas-
sination on the part of the friendly
disposed il they give information to
the American forces, is due the pro-
longation of the guerrilla warfare.
Gen. Chaffee recommends that
there be no further material reduc-
ton Of troops before January, 1908.
On the subject Of the military gov
eminent of the city Of Manila, Gen.
Chaffee says: "In the government
of Manila for three years, if the mil
itary have done nothing more, 1t is
everywhere apparent that an excel
lent foundation has been laid and a
turbulent and hostile community
brought to observe the laws and in
dividually be orderly; this has been
done without undue harshness or Sc
verify Of treatment of the inhab-
itants."
In anticipation of partial concen-
tration of the troops in the Philip
pines next year Gen. Chaffee submits
estimates Of cost for the construc-
ton of quarters and barracks.
Gen. Chaffee devotes good part
Of his report to the terrible disas-
ter which befell company c, Ninth in
fantry, at Balangiga, Samar, and
which, he says, was largely due to
over confidence in assumed pacified
conditions and in people, who, to a
great extent as yet, are strangers to
and unappreciative of our humane
and personal liberty beliefs and ac-
tons" American soldiers, he says,
fail to discriminate between real and
assumed friendship on the part of the
Filipinos.
With his report Gen. Chaffee sub
mits those of the commanders OF the
military departments in the Philip
pines and of the heads of the several
staff departments.

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW.



New York, Dec. 7.-Bradstreet's
says. This has been notable
week in trade and industry. Retail
distribution, stimulated by cold
weather and holiday influences has
been very large, and is reflected in q
decidedly good reassorting demand
from jobbers. The trade In food
staples and metals is the basis for the
apparent resumption in the advance
Of the general level OF prices noted
for November. Iron and steel are
stronger at the highest prices of the
year. Inability to obtain supplies is
complained Of all the way from the
furnace to the finished product. The
switchmen's strike affects Pittsburg
and further aggravates the car short
age trouble. Some mills are closed
for want of steel and some furnaces
for want of fuel. Steel Is practically
unobtainable for prompt delivery.
Wire and nails alone are weaker in
price on competition.
The original impetus for the ad-
vance in wheat, the scarcity and high
prices for the coarser grains, has
this week been aided by the widening
out of speculation, outside buying
being feature, aided by the smaller
run of receipts at the northwest
The highest price paid for II months
has been reached in the face of the
largest gain in stocks, both here and
abroad, reported in any month for
years past. Wheat in the United
States and Canada increased 21,000,-
900 bushels in November, an increase
nearly five times the gain shown a
year ago. Corn and oats are higher
than at any time since 1891. Hog
products and provisions generally are
in better speculative demand and
statistically the position has many
points of strength.
Business failures in the United
States for the week number 237,
against 1sa last week, 224 in this
week last year.. 220 in 1899, 237 in
| 1898 and 800 in 1897.

st. Louis, Dec. THE Southern
Telegraph and Money Order company
was again raided yesterday afternoon
by a squad of detectives and police.
The rooms of the company were
crowded when the raiding squad APP
peared on the scene and every occu-
pant of the place was taken. In all,
eight wagonloads of men were taken
to the Four Courts. The raid was
made under the order of the police
board, the allegation being that the
place is a pool room. Prosecution
will follow under "the common
nuisance" law, the recent prosecu-
ton under the Missouri law having
proved a failure in the courts.

Minneapolis, MINI, Dec. 1.-THE
Mississippi river is unprecedettly
low. Owing to the lack of water
power the street car service in Mime.
apolis, st. Paul and Saltwater has
been considerably reduced. Flour
mills are also seriously affected. The
deficiency of water is attributed part
ly to the lack of fall rains and partly
to the fact that loggers on the head

To Expedite Troops to the Philippines.

Washington, Dec. I'm order to

supplies from the United States to
the Philippines the secretary of war
has transferred the transport Kilpat-
rick from the New Manila
route to the San Francisco-Manila
route, so that the vessel, which is
now at Manila, can assist in carrying
troops between the last two named
posts. She will sail about the mid

at the war department that it takes
as long for one trip from New York
