A welI-Taken Exception.

Manila, June 16.--When the Grimm
al suit brought by Benito Legarda, a
Filipino member of the civil com
mission, against the newspaper Free
dom for having published a libellous
article from another newspaper of
Manila, came up for hearing last
week, counsel for the editor of Free
dom objected to Judge Rhode, before
whom the suit was to be tried, on
the ground that when Rhode was a
private attorney he had addressed
opprobrious epithets to the editor Of
the paper and declared that he would
not rest until he had landed him In
prison. Judge Rhode admitted hav-
ing made this statement, but said he
thought he was capable of trying the
case fairly.

West Point, N. Y. June 13.-The
centennial celebration of the West

Thursday with the presentation OF
diplomas to the graduating class. The
weather was fine. and the ceremony
took place out of doors on that part
Of the parade grounds known as
cavalry plain" An open tent over
a platform had been erected for the
speakers and officials, and standing
at the front Of the platform Presi-
dent Roosevelt presented each new
officer with his diploma. 1t was TX
pected the president would make a
few remarks, but he simply shook
hands with each cadet. On the plat
form besides the president were Gen.
Horace Porter, Gen. Miles, Secretary
Root, Secretary Moody, Postmaster

Alabama; Senator Quarles, of Wis

The audience comprising ladies' in

and beautiful scenery about West
Point gave the exercises a pictur-

The speakers were Gen. Dick, for
the board of visitors; Gen. Root, for
the government, and Gen. Miles for
the army.
The president left West Point in
the afternoon by train for Washing
ton.
The two most-talked of incidents
of the celebration are the speech of
Gen. Horace Porter, which made a
deep impression, and the defense of
the army in different speeches. Gen.
Miles remarks were chiefly those of
an older to younger officers, and re-
ferred almost wholly to the business
of war. He said there were supreme
moments in the life of a soldier, one
when an officer knows he is doing
just what the enemy thinks he is not,
and when he feels one more victory
has added to American glory. Gen.
Miles was loudly cheered and APP.

SAID TO HAVE BEEN BoIoED.
Five Men Of the Fifth Cavalry Captured
May 80 Are Said to Have Been
BoIoed to Death.

Manila, June 16.-Friendly natives
in Manila say a report is current
among their countrymen that the
five soldiers of the Fifth cavalry who
were captured by the insurgents May
80 have been boloed to death near
Teresa, in Morong province, Luzon.
This report has not been confirmed
by the American authorities of that
district.
Twenty-Five members of a band of
insurgents who were captured while
fighting with Gen. Lukban in Samar
took the oath of allegiance to the
United States, and were subsequent
ly released. Four members of the
band were killed in the engagement
which resulted in the capture of
their companions. The rs men who
have sworn allegiance have see Gen.
Chaffee, and have promised to give
him all the assistance in their power
in the work in maintaining the pres
ent peace conditions in Samar.
A commission has been sent to Sa-
mar to appoint Senior Llorentes gov
of the island and to establish
a government there.
1t is expected that a general am
nesty will be declared July first; this
amnesty will result in the release of
the Filipino prisoners now on the
Island of Guam.
The prospects in the island of
Leyte for a speedy termination of
the armed resistance there are
bright. Since the parts of the island
were closed s%urrenders of insur.
gents to the native constabulary have
occurred daily.

City, a place of 1900 inhabitants, was
wiped away, yesterday, by fire, the

BROAD QUESTION Of DUTY.
The President Decides to Send q
Message to Congress on
Cuban Reciprocity.
DOES IT IN THE FACE OF OPPOSITION.
after Discussing the Question with
a Number of Leaders the Presi-
dent Decided Not to Allie w His
Political Prospects to Interfere
With His Duty.

Washington, June 14.-After talk
ing with a number of the leaders in
congress regarding Cuban reciproci-
ty, President Roosevelt determined
to send a message to congress reaf-
firming his attitude on the subject.
The president earnestly considered
the matter for several days, and it is
stated that the action of the anti
reciprocity senators in deciding to
hold out against the policy advocated
by the majority of the party did not
influence the president in the least
in deciding to transmit his message
to congress.
The presidents action, it may be
stated from sources close to him was
influenced by the broad question OF
the duty of the United States to Gu
ba and of fairness to the new repub-
lie.
1t has been pointed out to the pres
ident that his warmest political sup
port is in the section of the country
where there is the greatest opposi-
ton to reciprocity, the west and
northwest, and that he should remain
content with the stand he had taken
without accentuating his views in a
special message. 1t is known, how
ever, that the president did not hesi-
tate to arrive at the conclusion that
he would not let his political pros
poets interfere with what he regard
ed as his plain duty. 1t is further
known that he told his friends that
it was a source of great regret to
him to take a position hostile to the
wishes of his warmesJ supporters,
but that he felt it would not be in
keeping with his own nature and his
position of chief executive to longer
remain silent on his subject and
thereby give an opportunity for false
speculation as to his attitude.
The president was further led to
conclude that the relations of the
United States and Cuba must neces-
sarily grow closer, and that the
United States should not, at the out
set. after it's declared purposes to-
ward the island, assume q position
contrary thereto, and thus arouse
the suspicious of the Cuban govern
ment as to our real intentions to-
ward it.

THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
White House. June u. 1902.
A TOPIC FOR CONVERSATION.
How the Different Parties to Reci-
prOcity Find Comfort in the
Presidents Message.

Washington, June 1.-the presi-
dents reciprocity message gave SEN
ators a live topic of conversation yes
terday, but so far as is yet apparent
there is no change in the situation
There vas a disposition on the part
of the leaders on both sides of the
controversy to claim, when speaking
publicly, some advantage from the
message. The straight reciprocity
men urged that the effect would be
to cause at least some of the beet
sugar republicans to abandon their
opposition. They commended that
many of them had misunderstood the
attitude of the president, and now
that this had been made clear there
will be no longer excuse for opposing
straight reciprocity measures. The
message, they argued, would clear
the atmosphere, render the presi-
dents attitude unmistakable and,
therefore, bring opponents within the
party face to face with the fact that
in continuing their opposition they
are a%ntagonizing the official head OF
the party.
"We have known all the time where
the president stood on this subject,
and have told the republican OPP
ponents of reciprocity just what the
facts are" said a leading reciprocity
senator. ''They refused to accept our
assurances and professed to have eX-
pressions from the president to the
contrary. The message confirms all
that we have said to them. 1t clears
the atmosphere, and necessarily the
result must be beneficial for a reci-
procity bill"
The beet sugar leaders declared at
the close of the day that the mess
age had caused no loss whatever to
them and that those senators who
stood with them yesterday IRE still
with them. They also asserted that
the presidents interposition in the
matter had had the effect of causing
| to hesitate some senators who here.
tofore had not taken a positive stand
against reduction, because of the
feeling that the president should
leave congress to deal with the sub.
ject in its present stage.
Senator DIETRICH was = among the
most outspoken of the beet sugar
men, and he made an unsuccessful eff
fort to secure the attention of thu
chair after the reading of the mess
age. Those who are in his confidence
say that it was his purpose to move
for the discharge of the committee
from the further consideration of the
house bill, in order to permit the i'm
mediate consideration of that meas

WEST POINT CHARITY BOYS.
How They Have Repaid Their Uncle
for His Care and Keep.

loE his ShTc ~ EAeeps
Manila, June 16.-Speaking at the
West Point centennial dinner, which
was held here last week, Acting Civil
Gov. Wright said he did not think
"The strike now being waged in con-
gress on the Philippine government
bill is as fierce and as irreconcilable
as it appears to be;"the sober second
thought of the American people were
always right, and that they would in
time do justice to the Americans in
the Philippine islands.
Speaking at the same dinner, Col.
Charles A. Woodruff, head of the sub
sistence department at Manila, said:
"The graduates of West Point may
be Charity boys but in the Mexican
wal these boys saved the nation in
money alone more than the military
school has cost since it's foundation.
The same boys led 100000 men to
victory in the greatest of modern
wars. The charity boys have all re-
paid their board and keep a thousand
fold. They can glory in the fact that
wherever $4,000 American troops
have faced an enemy, the commander
of these men was a West Point grad
uate. The established reputation of
the boys from West Point has be-
come a synonym for honor, integrity
and the highest credit in the coun-
try. They have saved the country
millions of dollars and thousands of
lives, and the charity boys will, no
doubt, uphold in the present war the
proud supremacy of the United
States"
