WASHINGTON, May 21.-Mr. Pat
tersOn OoloJ. one of the minority

of yesterday in discussion of the
Philippine question. Mr. Patterson
quoted from the utterances of his
newspaper, the Denver News, to show
that it consistently had advocated the
independence G. the Filipnos since
December. 1S9S. He said the editorials
quoted by Mr.. Foraker some days ago
had been written prior to chat time.
He discussed the whole Philippine
question, and several lively colloquies
occurred during the speech. Mr.. For

Engineers Action Is Doubtful.
WILKESBARRE. Pa, May 27.-It is
still matter of conjecture whether the
mines in the anthracite region will be
completely shut down next Monday
when the order issued by the executive
boards of the United Mine Workers
governing the hours of labor and wages
to be paid engineers. tiremen and pump
runners goes into effect. The operators
claim they will have all the help neces-
sary to keep the pumps and engines in
running order.
The United Mine Workers and the
officers of the Stationary Firemen's as
socation, on thc,Other hand. claim that
unless the coal companies grant the
demands made upon them the great
bulk Of the engineers tiremen and
pumpmen will quit work. There seems
to be no question but that both sides
are straining every nerve to make the
best showing possible.
While the position that will be taken
by great many of the engineers and
pumpmen is not known, it is known for a
certainty where the firemen stand. They
will strike almost to q man, and the
operators will be compelled to secure
green hands to take their places.
