M0R0S WANT WAR.
Many Queer Pretexts For Cp-
posing Americans.
FILlPINOS SCATTER FALSE REPORTS,
Tell Chiefs That We Are at Wal
with Russia and Spnin-An Tn
friendly Letter Forged by
Warliae DnttOs.

WASHINGTON, Sept. H. - Manila
papers Just received at the war depart
ment contain reports from Mndanao
regarding the Moro problem, showing
what the various suuans and dattos
are doing. together With correspond.
ence that has passed and conversations
that have occurred between army oiii-
GERS commanding in that island and
the different chiefs.
1t appears that the Moro chiefs were
Informed by Filipinos from Luzon that
Russia and Spain were at war with the
United States. One of the sultans when
asked why he would not be on friendly
terms with the United States author-
ties said that the Moros were all under
the direction of the sultan of STAN
boul, and they had been informed that
there was enmity between the sultan
of StAmbOul and the United States
government.
Captain Pershing, in command of the
cavalry, told him that this was entirely
a mistake. Another datto made the
claim that the MorOs always had been
i'll undiS,irbcd Possession Of the Lake
Ianao country and that even the Span
iards never had attempted to interfere
with them, and they did not want the
Americans to TO so.
There had been considerable friendly
correspondence with the sultan of Bal
culGd, but finally Il very unfricndiE let
ter was received from him, warlike in
Tone which greatly surprised the Amer
lean officers. BY another Moro chief
the Americans Were informed that the
ugly letter wa9 Il forgery prrpetratcd
by two of the dattos under the sultan
of Bacolod. These dattos were very
anxious for war one of them claiming
that he could hold his fort against any
force that might be sent against it.
The war party was stronger than the
peace party and Was taunting the Mo-
ros who wanted to be Oh peaceful
terms with the Americans by calling
them towards.
The Filipino insurgent Rut!ino was
found to be in that region making trou-
bic for the Americans.
In another communication from the
Moro country it is stated that Colonel
baldwin tried to get all the sultans
and datloS to meet him in Il friendly
conference. The sultan Of Baculod pro-
fcssed friendship. but asked for three
months in which to communicate with
the various tribes over which he was
chief. MurUS in the camp Of Colonel
Baldwin said that this was simply
ruse to gain further time ana prepare

Christ does draw, he never forces.
The greatest magnet in the world
is helpless before the unfaith and
Indifference of men. He must find
affinity of soul in men, before he
can magnetic them. He wants
men, all men to como unto him,
but they must come. The text gives
no warrant whatever for the soft
and silly notion of an universal sal
walton whether men will or not. 1t
does not mean that the whole world
will be irresistably drawn by the
divide Magnet and with their con-
sent or without it, be at last enroll
ed among the followers Of the Lamb
1t rather means that there will be
reversal of the present irreligious
condition Of the world and that then
it may be said all mon have been
drawn to tho Christ.
Some of us are looking not 50
much for world-kingdom but for
a wo rld-King. God hasten the day
OF his coming.

further, to nomin a 10 no man to 70

The conservative Democrats Of
the state have been building upon
the fact that they had neither Nc
Kinley against them nor Bryan fort
them in this campaign, aud that Il
was plain issue of the people against
Addicks, and therefore felt sure Of
winning. IS
