WASHINGTON, March c55..-To-day's ses-
sion Of the Senate Committee on Philip
pines was devoted to consideration OF that
portion OF the Philippine Government
which relates to the lands held by the
religious orders. The question was not
formally disposed of, but members of the
committee generally express the opinion
that the provision will be allowed to stand
practically as it was after the committee
completed its work to-day.
The only material alteration made to-
day related to the payment for the lands.
One of these provides that the bonds to be
issued to secure the means for the pur-
chase of the lands by the government
from the friars shall be made payable in
gold or its equivalent in Philippine curren-
cy, and another that they shall draw IN
terest at the rate Of 415 per cent, instead
Of per cent, as originally provided.
! RELIGIOUS DISCRIMINATION.
The committee also accepted sugges-
ton made by Senator Rawlins. that
clause be inserted requiring that just COM
pensation be awarded under the provision
allowing the government to acquire these
lands by the use of right OF eminent DO
main. The action on this amendment fol-
! lowed discussion OF the wisdom and
| fairness of the provision, in which Sem
ator Rawlins declared that It was ob1ec-
| tionable. on the ground that it sanctions
religious discrimination. He said that
under that provision, the Philippine adj
ministration could condemn and take II
lands owned by Catholic orders. at a price
| to be arbitrarily fixed by courts created
by that government, and then. if so dis
posed sell or lease them to persons or Or
CARNATIONS composed of persons of other
religious affiliation. The supporters of the
bill admitted that the question was a deli
cate one hut said that people OF all rei-
gious beliefs in the Philippines are united
in the opinion that the friars are a dis
turbing factor, and that their lands should
be taken under governmental control as the
best means of terminating the trouble.
It was stated in the course of the meet
| ing that the lands would not cost to ex-
coed $1,000, GOO.

LONDON, March 25.-Sir George Goldie,
ce-president of the Royal Geographical
Society and founder Of Nigeria, who has
just returned from a thorough inyestlga-
ton OF South Africa, where he conferred
with Lord Miner, Lord Kitchener, Cecil
Rhodes, Sir Walter. Hely-Hutchinson, the
Governor of the Cape of Good Hope, and
numbers of other influential men, brings
home rather pessimistic ideas Of the
general situation from a British point OF
view.
the conditions in Cape Colony he re-
CARDS as especially dangerous, and he
considers that the most serious British
difficulties will be encountered there in
the future as at present. In the course
of an interview with a representative of
the Associated Press, Sir George Goldie.
while recognizing the possible Importance
of Acting-Fresident Schalk-Burger's step,
said he was convinced that the question
of peace or war rests in the hands of
President Steyn; that Mr.. Kruger and the
other Beers in Europe no longer repre-
scented Boer opinion. The real difficulty in
the path of peace, he believes, is the
question OF granting amnesty to the Cape
and Natal rebels, and Sir George says the
vague promises Of the British Govern
ment have not the slightest weight while
the fighting Burgers are in their present
state Of mind.
Sir George Goldie favors granting am
nesty TO the rebels, but he insists that
everyone must be disfranchised for life
This, he declares, would go far towards
allaying the bitterness of the loyalists.
Sir George deprecates any attempt to
permit the use of dual language He
says English alone must be the official
language, and adds that the fact that
practically the whole OF the rising gene
rations of the two Republics are now in
the concentration camps, would be of
great aid in this direction. He estimates
that 100000 armed men will be needed IN
South Africa some years after the con-
clus;on of peace.

been finally beaten, though some of them
admitted that they had been temporarily
overweighted by numbers.

Capt. Charles r. Taylor, Of the Fire
Board, gave the views Of that board
practically.
1--WE expected two engines he said,
but when we see how well the committee
has distributed the money, we feel that
one is all that the city can afford to give
us this year, ard there is a possibility
of getting the other in the next annual
appropriation. With this one engine the
department will be wonderfully strength
ened, and with the added appropriation
TO the Water Department for charging
the water mains, we feel that much has
been done to place the city in a COM
paratively secure position as against fire
losses. =

the place for locating the new company.
It will be placed i'll a position to be
within easy reach of Fifth and Broad
