IA certain quarters Of Europe trouble
is brewing; low rumbles OF dissatisfac-
tion not yet ready to burst into livid
eruption Of revolution. It is the old
story, the history of the world, the
struggle Of the masses, the common
people, for supremacy-a supremacy
utterly impossible under present con-
ditions; which cannot come till the red
blood flow and the lives of aristocracy
he offered as sacrifice to the mythical
Lgoddess Of equality. Perhaps when the
I'VE has long smouldered. when hunger
and'uppression and insolence Of nobility
have driven to desperation, there may
be another fearful revolution, like unto
the French terror OF a century ago,
which was after all failure, for out Of
1t came the very opposite of their
ideals--the single power of Napoleon.
And indeed In failure must end all at
tempts at universal equality; con-
dition not to be desired nor In line with
nature. In all things there must be
great and little, and it were unjust to
class the giant and dwarf as equal. He
who has genius should have dominion
over dullpess; has divine right to lead
and guide, and will inevitably do so, too,
in spite Of revolutions socialistic or nj
hiiistic. Only, the true king should be
the greatest of the nation, embodying
the virtue Of the people; should be
chosen by the people for ability proved,
and not by the ridiculous method OF
supposing the eldest son OF their leader
always to be the greatest in the king
dom. Leaders there will ever be, but
the method Of choosing them alone
needs altering.

WALLER WAS TOLD
 TO KILL AND BURN
TESTlFIES HE WAS INSTRUCTED TO SHOOT EVERYTHING OVER 10 YEARS OLD, AND IS coRRoRoR. ATED.

Manila, April s.-Major Littleton W. T. Waller of the marine corps, at today's session of the courtmartial by which he is being tried on the charge of executing natives of Samar without trial, testified in rebutal of the evidence given yester- day by General Jacob H. Smith, who commanded the American troops in the Island of Samar. The major said Gen. eral Smith instructed him to kill and burn, said that the more he killed and burned the better pleased he would be; that it was no time to take prisoners and that he was to make Samar a bowling wilderness. Major Waller asked Gen eral Smith to define the age limit for kill ing and he replied everything over 10"
 The major repeated this order to Cap tain Porter saying We do not make war In that way on old men, women and children"
 Captain David D. Porter, Captain Hiram l.. Bearss and Lieutenant Frank L, Hat ford, all of the marine corps, testified corroboratively.
 The defense requested that a subpoenea be served on the adjutant general, de- manding the production of the records of the massacre at Balangiga of the de- tachment of the Ninth Infantry, in order to refute the statement of General Smith to the effect that the attack upon the troops was made according to the laws of war. The request was granted.

REBATE OF EXPORT DUTIES.
Secretary Root Gives Governor Wright
 Explicit instructions.

Washington, April 8.-Secretary Root, after consultation with the treasury au- thorities, has issued instructions to act ing Civil Governor Luke Wright of the Philippine Islands to give effect to that part of the Philippine tariff act which provides for a rebate of the export duties on goods shipped from the Philippines into the United States This matter is realized to be one of great importance and has caused much agitation in Eu- rope, and especially in London, where the vast Manila rope industry is threatened with severe blow by the advantage that will be given to rope-makers in the Uni ted States. Through the remission of the export duty, which will be collected in full from European shippers. Aside from hemp, the regulations apply to all raw materials coming from the Philippines on which export duties are levied.
 It Is believed that through the opera tions Of this discriminating law there will be a large addition to the number of Uni ted States bottoms and a considerable addition to the manufacturing interests here. It is hoped by this and otherii impor- tant steps to be taken later to make the United vast collecting and distributing mart of the worlds tropical goods.

INCONSISTENCIES FIRE
 ON REVENUE MEN
OFFICERS RETURN FIRE AND AS A RESULT ONE MAN IS DEAD AND ANOTHER HAS A NARROW Es- CAPE.

Louisville, Ky. April s.-News has been received here of fight between moon- sinners and revenue officers a mile and half from Big Meeting Creek postoffice in Hardin county, about 75 miles from this city, during which Asa Humble, an alleged moonshiner, was killed and Dep uty Revenue Collector R. A. Hancock of Louisville who was leading the pursu- ing posse, narrowly escaped death. a rife ball grazing his head and leaving it's mark on the skin.
 The revenue officers had information that a still was located in a bottom near Big Meeting Creek. They surrounded the still and Deputy Collector Hancock stepped out and called upon three men who were ordered to surrender They an- swered with a volley of shots and the revenue officers promptly returned the fire. Two of the moonshners then fled from the still firing as they ran and made their escape. When the smoke had clear ed away Asa Humble was dead inside the still house It is thought one of the men who escaped was wounded. The news of the fight was brought to this city by Hancock and. T. J. Sundiff. a deputy marshall, who was also a mem Der of the posse.

GAYNOR SAYS HE
 IS PERFECTLY SAFE
HAS NO FEAR OF u. s. AUTHORi- TIES BRINGING HIM AND CAP TAIN GREENE BACK FROM QUE BEG, CANADA.

Syracuse, N. Y, April S.-A representa- tive of the Herald has returned from Quebeck, where he saw John F. Gaynor and B. F. Greene. who are wanted at Sa- vannah, Ga, for trial in the United States courts on charges of defrauding the gov- ernment in contract work in that harbor. In an interview Gaynor said they knew before they went to Canada that they could not be extradited under the present indictments, otherwise they would not have gone there. Should they be extra dited on new indictments, he added, they must be tried on these indictments, and in his opinion conviction could not be se- cured upon them. Informed that Chief Wilkie disclaimed any effort to bring the fugitives back. and that the matter rested with the department of justice, Gaynor said:
 'T want Captain Greene to hear that" and he called Captain Greene over and made the reporter repeat the statement.
 That don't look as if they were doing much. If they are so sure they have us, why don't they come and get us if they can? Let them take us if they can. They can't do 1t. That's the reason and they know that they can't do it."

E OY SEVEN DAY MORNING NEWSPAPER PUB ISfED IN ALABAMA
RECIPROCITY ADVOCATES DRAW FIRST BLOOD IN BATTLE WHICH
 HAS BEGUN ON FLOOR OF HOUSE
ALABAMA MEMBERS DID
 NOT VOTE AS A UNIT

while forty-one voted against the mo- tion.
 Representative Underwood of Alabama in explaining the position of the majority of the Democrats, said he believed every Democrat should have voted for the mo- tion.
 "The speaker had just ruled" said MT. Underwood, that 1t was a privileged measure affecting the revenue and there fore subject to revenue amendments. The motion was to go into the committee without limitation of debate and without a rule preventing us from offering amend ments which would give us opportun- ity to further reduce the Dingley rates and make the bill effective both as a rev. enue reduction measure and as a meas ure extending our commerce
 The Democratic side of the House is not split to anything like the extent report ed by the eastern Republican press. This time the split Is on the Republican side. On the final vote it is expected very few Democrats outside the Louisiana, and pos sibly the Texas, delegation will vote against the measure.
 Senator Bailey = Texas and Senator Foster of Louisiana were prominent on the floor of the House this afternoon try ing to obtain votes against the bill, which both of them will oppose vigorously in the Senate.

VAK ASHINGTON, April s.-(Special.)
 M In the vote in the House this
 H VI afternoon on the motion to go into the committee of the whole for the purpose of considering the bill reducing the Dingley tariff rates between the Uni ted States and Cuba, Representatives Richardson, Bankhead and Clayton voted against the motion, while Representatives Underwood, Burnett, Bowie and Taylor voted for the motion.
 Representatives Wiley and Thompson are not recorded as having voted. It is un- derstood that the Democrats who voted against the motion do not mean to be placed in an attitude antagonistic to tariff reduction, but simply took the view that voting down the motion would have been the best political move at that stage of the proceedings. Both Representatives Clayton and Bankhead will vote for the passage of the bill. Representative Richardson told the Age-Herald corre- spondent this afternoon that he would probably vote against the bill. The ma jority of the House Democratic members, ffty-nine in number, voted in favor of going into the committee of the whole,

important role in the invasion of the Southern railroad territory by the LouIs- vile and Nashville and the war that will result between the systems. The Southern has always had absolute control of them. When the Tennessee Central opened up new coal lands of the Cum berland mountains the Southern stepped in and practically secured control of that road. Twice have efforts been made toward consolidation of all mining proper ties of this district, but each have fail ed and some of the coal operators have even gone so far as to charge that the failure of the Southern railroad to sup ply all demand for cars. has been due to an effort to force combination and sale of the properties Some color Is given this theory by the fact that simultaneous with the announcement of the Louisville and Nashville entrance into the coal fields the Southern's general manager sent special representative to look into the car supply and leave nothing undone to meet the demand for cars.

Secret Service Men Have Not Been

New Orleans, April 8.-There are three British transports loading at Chalmette and the only delay is due to strike of ship liners, who want s4 day instead of 8.

United States Dis trict Attorney Howe was down there to- day, but says he was only showing some friends the city, and has received no in structions from Washington.
