BISHOP And SENATOR
THOBURN AND PATTERSON HAVE AN
INTERESTING TILT.
CoIorado's Silver Democrat Attempts
to TangIe the Methodist Pre-
late with Questions.
DR.. THoBURN FOR EXPANSION
AMERICAN OCCUPATION OF THE
PHILIPPINES AN ACT OF GOD.
FiIipfnos Much Like the American In
dams in Many Respects, the
Bishop Said.

WASHINGTON. May 22.-Bishop Tho
burn. OF the NJ. z. Church Of India and
Malaysia. was before the Senate committee
on Philippines to-day. He said the Ameri-
can occupation of the Philippines should be
continued. In the course of his examina-
tion he said that the American occupat ton
was an act OF God This led to quite a
long lire OF questions by Senator Patter-
son, in which the bishop was asked whether
the occupation OF Cuba was an act OF God.
and when he replied in the affirmative Sen
stor Patterson asked if the withdrawal
was also the Get of God.
1T Is too soon to answer that" he re-
piled. THE United States may have to so
back there"
Senator Patterson pursued the questions
10 some length. and the bishop finally pro-
bounced them metaphysical"
Senator Beverage objected. saying the
questions were unnecessary. and Senator
Patterson remarked that whenever the
questions were such as to bring out evil
dence the majority did not want an excuse
was made for objection. Chairman Lodge
sustained the objection
The line OF the bishops testimony in part
Is indicated by the following questions by
Senator Patterson and Bishop Thoburn's
responses;
IF the Philippine government should be
established and you should be asked
whether you thought such establishment
was the act Of God. would you ask to defer
your opinion
Il would not say IL was the act of God >
You would say it was the act of the
deviI?''
NO: / would not ! would say II was the
act or American politicians" he added that
ne believed that with an independent Phil
ippine government the Macabebes would
be exterminated within twelve months
Mr. Patterson asked the witness IL he
believed the subjugatiOn OF barbarous or
semi-civilized people BY the great powers
70 be the act OF GOd?"
4 would not put il that way" he repIfed
.'The most enterprising governments are

ments generally find that they have 10 fol-
low their citizens. God rules and over

The Vatican Disappointed.

ROME, May 22.-Doubt is felt in Vatican
circles as TO whether the Pope. after ALL
will give an official reception to the Taft
Commission. Official notification of the ar
rival of the commission here at the end of
May has been received at the United
States embassy and has caused disappoint-
ment at the Vatican. as ii specifically
eliminates all the political aspects sought
TO be attached to the commission; sets
forth that the commission must not i'm
any way be regarded as an American rec
ognition of the Vatican's policy towards
Italy. and points out that the commission
is of q purely business character and in no
way connected with politics.

~ HE Republican Territorial Com
mittee last evening ordered print
a ed the rules as drafted by the
committee and postponed their con-
sideration until April 2sth, when there
will be special meeting for the pur-
pose. In the meantime the rules will
be printed and a copy sent to the mem
bers of the various committees, to
prominent Republicans throughout the
Territory. and all for the purpose OF
having many opinions ready for dis
cussion when the rules are taken up.
The draft as submitted is nearly the
same as the present rules of the party,
with the changes which are made nee
essary owing to the fact that an cleo
tion has been held and there is basis
for future representation. There are
some omissions where the exigencies
OF the occasion would suggest action
as in the limiting of voting at priInar-
les to those who are Republicans, and
there are other points where there
seems on the face to be an effort TO
safeguard the ballot at the primaries

AND
PLAGUE IN
FAR EAST

HONGKONG, Mar. 15.-News reach
ed the Colony on the 1st inst. that chol-
era had broken out at Canton and was
raging severely among the Chinese pop
pulation. Two Europeans have unfor-
tunately succumbed to the dread dis
case. one of them, we regret to state,
was Lieut. Commander E. A. Baird OF
III. NJ. gunboat Britemart. His death
was very sudden. On the 9th ult. ne
was at Shameen playing tennis, and
he dined there at night and. after play
ing a game of billiards. left for his
ship, apparently in the best of health
and spirits Toward midnight, how
ever he was seized with a pain in the
chest and he succumbed next morning.
The flags on the shipping and the prom
trent buildings are fioated at half
mast. The deceased officer was buried
On the 1st inst, on French Island. 1t is
believed that he contracted the disease
by drinking some milk. The other Eu-
ropean who died was Mr.. t. Agnew, %
years of age. an employe of the Gus
toms: he drank some unfiltered water,
and died on Thursday.
A fatal case OF what was apparently
cholera was reported in the Colony at
the beginning of the week, the victim
being a Chinese farmer who has been
residing for the past few days with a
friend in Queens Road Central. He
was i'll before his arrival in Hongkong.
We are glad to learn on reliable med
ical authority that there is no evidence
of an epidemic of cholera prevailing
at Canton, and the accounts of cholera
there have been of too alarming a ma
ture Since the death of Captain Baird
on the 2Sth ult there have been no cases
OF cholera, and although our informant
passed through the native city on sew
eral occasions he saw no evidence of
the existence of the disease The cof-
fin-shops showed no signs of activity,
and these invariably show outward and
visible tokens of the prevalence of a
decimating disease.
In connection with the above we
were advised on the 6th inst. that there
mad been another death amongst the
foreign staff of the i G. NJ. Customs.
The deceased was an acting boat ofi1-
Ger named T. Stephenson, a middle
aged man of weak constitution. who
had been out of health for some weeks
and was much alarmed at the death OF
Agnew, who lived few doors of.
Stephenson was on duty on Tuesday
morning but was taken i'll with chol-
eraic symptoms. not however, in an
acute form. Remedies checked the
symptoms. but deceased expired
through heart failure at 2:15 on We'd
nesday morning, 5th inst. Another
suspicious case occurred in the Canton
Customs Staff on Friday.

On the Saturday two japanese died
of cholera on the s S. RiOjnn Maru at

suspects have been removed to the

at the Richards street and the Opera
house ends of the square. The first

In each report made at the meeting
OF the Republican Fourth district COM
mittee at noon yesterday. there was a
tone of great interest in the election.
Each committeeman said that the feel
| ing was that If the vote could be got
out there would be no question of the
victory OF Harris at the polls.
