FUNSTON SORRY.
Admits He ts Liable to Lose Ills Temper
 Over PhiItpnIMes. ----

Denver April 23.-When shown this afternoon copy of the order issued by Acting Secretary of War Sanger by di- rection of the president, General Fun ston said
 q think it possibly refers to my re- marks on the Philippines at the Sons of the American Revolution banquet last Saturday night. I said nothing there but what I had said before, and the manner in which I was introduced by General Hale at the function natur- ally called for remarks on the Philip pines. If my remarks of that occasion are not satisfactory to my chief, I re- gret #.
 'I am the last man to do anything prejudicial to military discipline, but, as I said at the above mentioned recep- tion, when l talk on Philippine ques- tions I am liable to lose my temper. But truth does not always lie at the bottom of the we'll. Until I hear from Presi- dent Roosevelt I have nothing to say pro or con-
 Continuing, he said that in future his public utterances would be free from any reference to the Philippines, and he intimated that his speeches, as printed, were, as a rule, full of mis- statements and very badly garbled.

 pen.tOn of adr.

| Paterson, N. J., April 23.-Striking dye helpers to-day stormed the estab- lishments that were still running, and by force compelled a complete suspen- sion of business in their trade They
 engaged in a series of running fights with the police and plant managers, and in one of the severest clashes exchang
 ed volley of pistol shots. The radi-
 calls among the strikers were in com
 mand, and hostilities ceased only when
 there were no more shops to win over
 to the cause for which they were fight ing. Many persons on either side were severely injured during the rioting, but none dangerously so. It was believed for time that it would be necessary
 to ask the state for troops to restore order and insure protection to life and property, but the police expressed con- fidence in their ability to handle the situation and no request for outside aid was made. Judge Dixon called the grand jury before him and charged them to indict the persons guilty of rioting. The owners blame the radical foreign element for the trouble.

 Following is the text of the letter to General Funston;
 War Department, Washington, April
 22 1902
 Sir: l am directed by the president to instruct you that he wishes you to cease further public discussion of the situation in the Philippines, and also to express his regret that you should make a senator of the United States the object of public criticism or discus sion. Very respectfully, "Wm Cary Sanger, Acting Secretary of
 War"
 "Brigadier General Frederick Funston,
 Commanding Department of the Col
 orado, Denver Col.'
 At banquet last Saturday night of the Colorado Sons of the Revolution, General Funston is reported to have said of Senator Hoar: "I have only sympathy for the senior senator from Massachusetts, who is suffering from an overloaded conscience"
 Probably what caused the issue of this particular letter was an application from General Funston for leave of ab sence in order that he might attend the banquet to be given in Boston by the Middlesex club I was understood that he was to deliver another address there, and as the president deprecates the discussion of public questions in this fashion by United States officials and officers, this letter was sent The request for leave of absence was refus- ed. A copy of MT. Sanger's letter was to Senator Hoar.
