KANSAS AND COLORADO.
And Thor Fight for the Water Of
Arkansas River
~ Assnclated i,ress.l


Washington, o. C., Nov 3.-The
answer of the state of Colorado in the
suit Of The state of Kansas versus
Colorado, for restriction of the use of
the water Of the Arkansas river by the
latter state. was filed in the United
States supreme court today. In gen
eral all the allegations of the bill of
complaint are denied and T. is set
forth that the appropriations Of water
complained of were made in accord
ance with, and in reliance upon. the
doctrine respecting the appropriation
OF water of the natural streams for
beneficial uses which by usage and
custom prevailed in the arid region
of the United States at the time of
said appropriations, and which, by
recognition and approval of the Uni
ted States, has at ali times been the
law applicable to public lands in said
arid region.
II is urged that the people of Kan.
sas have themselves recognized the
of the use OF the water OF
the streams for the purpose of irriga-
tion by so using the water themselves.

The day before we left Hongkong I
received a telegram from Consul-Gen'

and would Join me at Hongkong. I
replied: All right: tell him to come
aboard but I attached 80 little I'm.
portance to the message that sailed
without Aguinaldo and before he ar
rived. There were then many prom
ises as to what the Fillpinos would
do, but did not depend upon them.
Consul Williams assured me that upon
our arrival and the firing Of the first
gun 10000 Filipinos would rise. None
did arise. and I frequently joked him
on this point"
He told about Agulnaldo's arrival.
saying that he put him ashore and
told him to organize his people. Asui.
naldo came back discouraged and
wanted to 60 to Japan. but the Ad-
miral told him to continue his efforts.
The Admiral said he paid no attention
to Aguinaldo's first proclamation OF
independence OF the Filipinos. Speak
ing Of Aguinaldo's military operations
he said he did wonderfully in whipping
the Spanish.
Admiral Dewey said emphatically
that he never had recognized Aguinal-
dos government: nor did he salute
Aguinaldo's fiag: he never called Agui'
naldo general" but addressed him
rs Don Emilio"
The Admiral said he had never given
the Philippine Republic the slightest
recognition; that he had no authority
to do SO, and did not consider 1t an
organized government. He said the
Spanlards were fearful of the Filipinos
entering Manila. and. therefore. sur.
rendered to him In advance. He said
there was no need for the loss OF q
man in the capture Of the city. No
gun would have been fred but for
the desire of the Governor. who said
his honor demanded that few shots
be fred. $50 I had to fire and kill q
few people," said the Admiral. but
the Spaniards did not fire because he
dewey had warned them not to do
SO.
Admiral Dewey said he had written
the. Navy Department that the Fill
pinos were more capable Of self-gov-
ernment than the Cubans. because he
saw that Congress contemplated giving
independence to Cuba. and he knew
that the American people had little In
formation concerning the Filipinos.
He said that when he let the Fill
pinos have guns and ammunition he
thoNght 1t was n military necessity.
LooRlng backward he could see that
they were not needed. He considered
them very ungrateful In turning
against the United States.
