THE PRESIDENT
Is Angry Over the Incident at
 Venice.

Washington Special to Chicago Tribune.
 The arrest and Imprisonment of four of the officers of the cruiser Chicago at Venice is likely to become an interna- uonal incident.
 President Roosevelt Is wroth and in tends going to the bottom of the matter. He was very much incensed this morning when Secrtary Long appeared at the White House for the Cabinet meeting and reported that the Navy Department had received no official report upon the arrest and imprisonment of the officers. He lost his patience altogether when Secretary Hay came in and said that the State Department had no news either about the matter. He ordered that dis matches be sent 1t once to our naval and diplomatic representatives at Venice and Rome to report all the particulars of the affair forthwith
 fhe President is not only officially angered by the neglect of our representa- lives, but he is personally very much provoked at the idea Of Ambassador Meyer permitting such an outrage to be perpetrated without even verbal pro- test being made to the Italian govern ment He is very much veXed at the action of Commander Beehler the naval attache in rendering apologies for the behavior of officers of the Chicago before there had been judicial determination by the follow officers of the accused whether their conduct was such as would ro .,uire an apology.

THE RETURN OF REMEY.
Says Pacification of Philippines "is
 Only a Matter of Time"

New York. May 1.-Rear Admiral Remey who arrived here today on the Brooklyn after a tour of sea duty in the far east was interviewed on the conditions in the Philippines. He said 1T have no actual news to bring from the Philippines Of the stories of alleged cruelties and the subjection of the natives to the so-called
 water cure l have no personal knowl- edge. What I may have heard, should not care to give for publication because of the possibility of being called before the committee of the Senate now investi- gating the charges.
 Concerning general conditions in the islands General Chaffee told me before left that things were progressing satls- factorily. slowly. but surely and that qualification was only a matter of time. Talk of the withdrawal of the United States from the Philippines Is based on an inaccurate and incomplete knowledge of conditions there. Our country could not withdraw. Chaos would result My observations have convinced me that the natives are not capable of self-govern- ment yet. They need guiding hand. and now that we have undertaken the task, we cannot for the sake of humanity withdraw until the work is completed"

N Y.. was declared a draw by Referee Siler. The decision was unpopular, the major ity of the large body of spectators being of the opinion that the New Yorker was entitled to the verdict by more than a fair margin.
 Jack McKenna, Regan's manager. was so incensed at the ruling that he had to be restrained by the police from doing bodily harm to Referee Sller. Began put up an excellent fight and he left the ring fresh and unmarked. Forbes. on the other hand was very wild in his delivery and throughout the fight failed to land a blow that in any way distressed Began. Began played for the stomach principal ly and his well directed blows to that region had Forbes in distress. especially in the closing rounds of the battle.
