DISTRESS IN PHILIPPINES.

Additional advices received at the
War Department yesterday from Gov
ernor Taft make the situation in the
Philippines appear more serious than
was first supposed. Starvation threatens
the natives unless relief can be quickly
sent to the islands. The terrible efiec,s
of war are now felt and Governor Taft
reports to Secretary Root that it will be
several years before the present depres-
sion is overcome. Col. Clarence Ed
wards, chief of the Bureau of lnsular
Affairs, has been directed by Secretary
Root to make arrangements for the pur-
chase of large quantities of wheat and
flour, to be distributed among the sui-
fering Filipinos This is in addition to
the purchase of $4,000, 900 worth OF
food supplies by the Philippine Com
mission in the East and distrlbu-
ton of rice by civil governors. Gov
ernor Taft says material conditions
are depressing and the ravages of chol-
era have destroyed thousands of lives
and prevented the natives from working.
Little food has been raised and what
crops were planted were largely destroy
ed by the locusts. While the agricultr-
raj situation is bad, he regards with more
seriousness the loss of the native carabao,
thousands of which have been destroyed
by rinderpest during the past year. Gov
ernor Taft says that ladronism is still in
evidence in the Philippines, and is to
some extent responsible for suffering in
the provinces. The robbers take station
in the mountains, steal the carabao, and
drive them from one province to another
and sell them. AS yet efforts to suppress
the bandits have not succeeded very well
but the fight against them will be con
tinued, and Governor Taft hopes in thu
end to rid the country of their operations

STATE MAY Get LANDS
SECRETARY HITCHCOCK MAKES
RULING ON SWAMP CASE
Matter Is Held Up Pending Decis-
ion by Federal Authorities as
to Original Agreement
Entered into.

The Duluth land office received within
the past few days an order from the sec
rotary of the interior which has some
bearing upon the contest now pending
between the state and federal govern
ments as to the title to a part of the
so-called swamp lands Of this state.
AS has already been related in T h e
G b at length the land in question is
a portion of the territory granted by the
federal government to the state many
years ago as swamp land, by reason of
the fact that it was shown as such upon
the government surveyors platS. Later
it was ascertained that many errors had
occurred in the plats of the government
surveyors and that a great deal of the
land described as swamp was in reality
high and dry, and good for farming
purposes. Then the United States land
department ruled that If a settler or con-
testant could show that any portion of
the land claimed by the state as swamp
was not swamp, the title of the state
to that land would be cancelled.
The state has, however, taken the ground
that the federal government is bound by
the original agreement as the state ae-
cepted the grant in good faith and took
the government surveys as is authority;
and it is argued that it is fair to presume
that tie government surveyors made
which We're really swamp
Secretary Hitchcock, in his order says
in part:
upon consideration Of the states POSI-
ton. it is directed that further proceed
ings looking to the determination Of the
character of these lands otherwise than
by an examination of the field notes Of
approved and existing United States sur
yeys, be suspended until the department
can consider and give final determinatiO
to the question whether the agreement
heretofore made with the state respecting
the matter shall be adhered to in the
further adjustment of the swamp land
grant to this state; that the proposed
hearings at the Duluth and St Cloud
land offices If held at all, be postponed
until the state has had a chance to OK
anime the land involved, and that notice
be given all persons claiming lands adj
versely to the state, or seeking title, IS
well as to the state and grantees Of the
state that the department is considering
whether further effect shall be given 10
the agreemet with the state whereby it
lands under the swamp land grant should
| be determined by field notes of the United
| States surveys, and that each of said
| parties will be accorded until and includ-
| ing the frs Icy of March, to make such
| showing or f3e such brief in the premises
as to them may seem appropriate in the
| light of their interests"
| The disputed territory in various por-
| tons of the state comprises many thou
sands of acres and in case the state is
successful in its contention. this land viii

CITY RAILWAY PROBLEM
W. j. BROWN ADVOCATES NUM-
CIPAL OWNERSHIP.

s.Cjtv Railways was the subject of a
naDer read by w. J. Brown before the
Socialists club at Pfeifer's hall yester-
day afternoon. Nj. Brown advocated
municipal ownership, and gave his rea-
sons He said if i wCre possible for
corporation to own and operate the city
railway and make a profit by dong SO,
the CITY could do the same and instead
of making profit, could offer mucn
cheaper fares. While the cents charg-
at the present time is small amount,
it means "a great deal to a man who
saving of cents on each fare collected
on the system in year would amount
to a fortune.
Mr.. Brown referred at length to tho
cities in which the street railways are
operated by the municipality, and failed
to find a single case where it had not
been entirely satisfactory to the people.
He spoke at length of Glasgow, where a l.
cent rate is given to 40 per cent of the
people and a 2-cent rate tothe rest. This
he considered a good reason why the
plan should be adopted in this city.
When questioned in regard to the mat
ter he was compelled to admit that
when the difference in wages and values
between Glasgow and st. Paul was TAX
en- into consideration, the 2-cent rate was
greater than the scent rate would be i'll
this city.
After Mr. Brown had finished his ad :
dress the matter was taken up in a gen.
eraI debate and a number of people
spoke upon the question. majority of
those present favored municipal owner
ship in St. Paul One gentleman said
that the only reason corporations were
permitted 20 own and operate the city
railway was because the board of alder
because it was to their own financial
benefit to do so.

IN HIS OLD PARISH
RIGHT REVEREND RTSHOp vxTRIcEr
breaches AT ST. JOHNS
CHURCH
FIRST VISIT IN TEN YEARS
He Is Now at Michigan City. Ind,
and Was Formerly President
of Seabury Divinity
School.

Ft' Rev. John Wright, bishop of Mich
lgan City, Ind, and formerly pastor of
the Church of st. John the Evangelist
IN TINS city, occupied the pulpit of that
chufch yesterday at both morning and
evening services; and in spite of the
increment weather was greeted at each
service by a large congregation of his
former pensioners
Blshop Wright was pastor of St. John s
Tor four years, beginning in 1888, and in
that period greatly endeared himself to
the members of that flock, and formed
many strong ties of friendship At the
earnest solicitation of the late Bishop
Whipple and the late Bishop Gilbert,
then bishop cOadjutor of this diocese.
DR.. Wright gave up his charge in this
city to become president of Seabury Di-
vinity school at Faribault, which was
then much in need of a man of his char
acter and executive ability at its head.
1t IS now about two years since he be-
1t is now about two years since
he became bishop of Michigan City.
While in st. Pa0Bishop Wright is the
guest of Theodore L. Schumacher. Of
Crocus Hill, who is one of the vestrymen
of st. Johns church.
Yesterday was the first day that Bish-
op Wright has occupied the pulpit of st.
Johns since he retired from it's incum-
bency more than ten years ago, and In a
gracefully Worded prelude to his serman
he expressed his pleasure at being once
more among the members of his former
flock. He said that when it was pre-
sented to him as his duty to leave ST.
Johns to take up his wok in another
field, he had accepted that duty with
deep regret; and that reg9et he had never
outgrown in all the years that had elaps-
ed since mis- departure. His interest in
this parish and Its members had been
so constant and so earnest that now,
upon his return to these familiar as
sOcjations he could feel that all. these
years had not been.
Bishop Whipple preac hed upon the OBJ
legation of business men to come forward
and act with the clergy in the suppress
sion of the vice of q city. 1t was not
enough, he said, that the men of affairs
and influence in the community should
give their financial support to the
church and the reforms conducted by the
church and the clergy even though that
support was freely and literally given.
They should also and more than all con
tribute their effort and their influence
and by their personal example should aid
in the work.

IS SURE.
NORMAL PRACTICALLY
SETTLED
FOUR MEMBERS PLEDGED

Supt. w. A. Shoemaker, of ST. Cloud,
will be the next president of the State
Normal schol at St Cloud, succeeding
President George r. KIeeberger, who
has resigned, and will retire at the end
Of the present session.
That this will be the result of the
deliberations of the state normal board
at it's next meeting cannot be doubted
Unless the members change their minds
in a hurry, or unless something now
entirely unforeseen should arise, DR..
Shoemaker election is assured D1rec-
tors Morey, Eastman, Olsen, Phelps and
Clark are out and out for DR.. Shoemaker
as the situation now stands. Director
Hammond has favored Supt Denfeld.
of Duluth, but since that gentleman 3
withdrawal, will undoubtedly be tor
Shoemaker. While the other gentlemen
have not declared themselves. there
seems to be no reason to doubt that they
will swing into line for the st. Cloud
man. The fact that there is no Mime
sofa opposition to Shoemaker is the big
thing in his favor. This is not the only
thing; he has the almost unanimous
backing of Minnesota educators in the
ST. Cloud Normal School territory He
has the solid backing of ST Cloud. The
normal school people at the st. Cloud
school want him; the citizens of st
CLOUD want MN; Ut hIeebergef wants
him; and there is not a discordant note
in the chorus in his favor. Mr.. Shoe
maker was long a member of the St.
Cloud normal schoI faculty He and Dr..
Kleeberger have been close friends, and
they are in accord as to the policy Of
the normaif school DR. Kleeberger
would regard Shoemaker's selection as
a vindtcatioR3 of himself in every way.
Mr.. Shoemaker has been in st. Paul
for the past four days, but modestly
declines to give a statement as to his
chances. butts it is known that he has
assurances Of support sufficient to guar
antee his election if the matter were to
be settled today. 81
