'sThe anarchy bills are going to make trouble in the house" said a demo cratic member from New York when asked why congress was doing nothing in a matter on which all the members seemed to be of one mind. ''There Is little difference in the minds of the members as to the necessity of passing a bill to prevent anarchists coming into the country, but there is great jealousy in the committee in regard to the matter General Shattuc, chair man of the committee on immigration, does not consider that the Judiciary committee has the right to pass on any measure which deals with immigra- tion. The members of the Judiciary committee themselves are jealous or Chairman Ray because they think he desires to arrogate to himself too large a share of the glory that will per tain to the authorship of the bill that finally passes As to the democrats, they are not involved except in so far as they may be called upon to protest against any measure which violates state rights.''

AS CHAFFEE SEES IT.
The General Reports on Mili- tary Status Tn Philippines.
REASONS FOR CONTINUED WARFARE.
Two Provinces In Luzon and the Ia- lands of sanar, Mindoro and Cebu Constitute the Dis-
 turbed Area.

MANILA, Jan. 2o.-General Chaffee i'll the annual report, which has just been issued, sums up the situation from the military point of view by saying that the provinces of Batangas and Laguna, in southern Luzon, and the islands of Samar, AIindoro and Cebu constitute the disturbed area in which bodies of insurgents ill force are to be found.
 General Chaffee says the prolonga- tion of guerrilla warfare is due to the physical character of the country and to the nature of the warfare carried on by the insurgents, who pose as friends and act as enemies in the same hour; to the humanity dis played by the American troops, of which the insurgents take advantage, and to the fear Of assassination on the part of those natives who are friendly disposed toward the Americans should they give the latter information con- corning the movements or where abouts of the insurgents.
 Municipal and provincial govern ments are being organized These gov ernments have not yet received prac- tical trial. They constitute the only certain and reliable method of ascer- taining the progress of the Filipinos to- ward self government.
 According to the opinion of army of fcers the disaster to Company of tlfe Ninth infantry at Balangiga, Samar, when forty-eight men were killed, is attributed to the too great confidence of these men in territory which they assumed to be pacifed.
 A report has been received here that q dugout canoe, in which eleven men of Company l. of the Second infantry were travelling, is missing and prob ably lest. It is believed the men either perished or were captured.
 General Wade has cabled from Cebu that 365 insurgents surrendered on the island of Bohol last Friday. The au- thorities here say that if this state ment is accurate it is astonishing, as the secret service had failed to learn of the existence of any such body of insurgents on Bohol island
 An important capture was made in Laguna province, Luzon, when eight men of the Eighth infantry captured D woman insurgent named Aquoda Kahabagan. She recently command ad an insurgent force of 800 men, 300 of whom carried rifles, while 500 were armed with bolos, and for six years past she has been leading insurgent bands against the Spaniards and the Americans.
 General J. Franklin Bell fs still ac- tive in Batangas province, Luzon. A recent engagement in this province. in which the insurgents were defeated with severe loss, resulted in the Wounding of one American officer and 1 the killing of one private
 Colonel Theodore J. Wint of the Sixth cavalry, who is operating in Batangas and Laguna provinces, re- ports numerous small engagements.

Further Runnors of Peace.

BRUSSELS, Jan. 20.-Dr. Leyds. the European representative of the Trans vaal, and the Boer delegates met again yesterday at some mysterious rendez- vous. Dr. Leyds now denies himself to everybody. It is asserted that Dr. Kuy- per, the Dutch premier, on his return to The Hague from London had confer ence with Mir. Wolmarans. one of the Boer delegates, who sent another dele gate to consult with Mir, Kruger, and that another meeting will be held. In spite of the Boer denials a strong feel ing exists here that some peace move ment is afoot between Great Britain and the Boer delegates, but that there is difficulty in arriving at any accepta, ble basis of terms, MT. Kruger and Dr. Leyds being reluctant to commit them selves

The Philippine tariff bill will be re- ported to the senate soon and 1t is pre- dicted that the debate on its provisions will last for q month. Senator Lodge professes to believe that it will be passed as reported, but there are mem- bers of his own party who greatly diff fer from him and who say that 1t will have to be referred back to the com
 mittee. Prominent among these is Senator Mitchell of Oregon. After the bill gets through the senate it will have to pass the house and if the sen- ate persists in it's determination to ex clude that body from voice in the Cuban reciprocity affair there is ey- cry possibility that MT Payne, chair man of the ways and means commit tee, and his colleagues, will treat the measure with little consideration, as they believe that Senator Lodge, in bis capacity of champion of the admins tration, will be thus brought to terms and will be forced the oppose the sen ate foreign relations committee in or der to relieve Secretary Root from his present embarrassing position.

The Panama canal is in totally diff ferent condition from what it was at the formation of the new company in 1894, whites General H. L. Abbott in the Engineering Magazine. Its work has been continuous and rich in re- suits. The plans are perfected, based on a thorough understanding of the subject. The route now presents no serious difficulty from an engineering point of view. The concessions are ample, and good progress has been made in actual construction. A par allel railroad, the existence of nu- merous quarters for, laborers, and a considerable supply of tools, are avail able for immediate resumption of work on grand scale. As compared with it's most formidable rival, nature as long and requiring only about half the number of locks; an exemption from about fifty miles of river naviga- ton which cannot but be dangerous to STedI ocean SlealueTS DS IedSou OA fCAy bad curvature and troublesome fogs and winds; and lastly, harbors which have aided in making it the fayorite transit route since the Spanish occupa- tion five hundred years ago, meeting all the demands of commerce hereto fore, and admitting of future i'm provements at moderate expense, should such, become desirable. It seems clear that if the two canals were opened to navigation there could be no commercial competition between them, taking into account the delays and the costs by transit, including tolls, tugs for steering, etc, and insur- ance rates.

V RAILRoADiNa BY rELEPHoNE.
Il1inois Central Equipping It's Lfns
 Wtth Instruments.

CHICAGO, Jan. 20.--The Illinois Central railroad within a short time will have all the principal stations along its line equipped with telephones for the use of officials and employees in transmitting the orders and mes sages of the company.
 These who have experimented with the system claim for 1t many advan~ tages over the old telegraph system. They assert that by means of the tele- phonic system the service will be prac- tically revolutionized, that with slight improvements, which are inevitable. the telephone will furnish greater safety for train orders, that the cost of train operation will be decreased and the results obtained made vastly better and that no less important IS the constant personal contact between officials and employees, which, the pro- motors say. is certain to result in a higher class of service.
 The change on the Illinois Central will be gradual. The installation of the system will cost about $10O per mile, or approximately S540,000 to equip the entire road, including it's main branches and the Mississippi Valley road. Chicago will probably be the starting place. Almost simul- taneously work will be commenced at New Orleans and St. Louis. From these centers a wire line will be ex- tended to the principal points until every station in the entire system is included.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2o-The sup plementa1 report of the isthmian ca nal commission on the proposition of the Panama Canal company to dispose of its property to the United States for $40,O00,000 has been delivered to President Roosevelt. The members of the commission refuse to discuss the nature of the report, and like reticence is maintained at the White House, but it is said on excellent authority that the report unanimously recommends that the offer of the Panama company be accepted.
 The report, it is said, is voluminous, going into all the phases of the ques- tion and attempting to meet the state ments that any legal complications will arise out of the purchase or that there will be any international difficulties should the deal be consummated.
