He knows noth Ing about 1t and does not want to put brakes upon his enth usiasm by any access of knowledge in the premises.

He has soul ful sympathy for the down trod- den negro aS the colored iudivid- ual appears to him i'll his dream aud phantasies and he wants tc know no other.

INDEPENDENCE
Is What Carnegie Would
 Give Filipinos.
WOULD PAY FOR IT HIMSELF
Offers to Pay For Philippines Pro- Vided Their Inhabitants are
 Granted Freedom.

New York, May 17.-Andrew Carnegie offered to the late Presi- dent Mckinley to pay the $20, ,000, 00C for the Philippines if he would authorize him to say to the Filipinos that the United States would ultimately grant them free dom.
 Mr. McKinley's answer was that Mr. Carnegie did not under stand the real situation.
 Through George +. Seward, president of the Fidelity and Casualty Co., this new evidence has been made public, as showing the intensity of Andrew Cal negie's opposition to the United States occupation of the Philip pines.
 Mr. Seward and Mr. Carnegie are cid friends and ardent anti imperislists.
 Mr. Seward says that the con yersation in which Mr. Carnegie told him of the offer he had made took place ut MT. Carnegle' $ house in this city some time be- fore Mr. Carnegie sailed fer Eu- rope.
 Carnegie expressed again his regret at the course of events in those islands, and then spoke of his efforts to prevent the out break of hostilities between the Fllipines and the Americans th olo.
 He said he had called on the <! President ih Washington before the ratification of the treaty of peace with Spain and had told him that he was convinced we were facing war with the Eli rinos, which he was greatly de- sirous of avoiding.
 At that time the President was already contemplating sending q  committee to the Philippines to endeavor to reach en agreement with Aguinaldo and his people which would avoid hostilities.
 Mir. Carnegie said to Mr. Sew ard that he had told the President that he wanted to be sent to the Philippines as Il special commis- sioner with authority to assure the Filipinos that Americans were seeking only thelr good and had only the kiniest feeling for and the best disposition toward them ; that we deslred to help them es- tablish their own government SC curely, anu then their indepen- tence would be gnlzed.
 If he could have such autht rity, Mir. Carnegie told the President he himself would under take to pay the $20,000,000 which the treaty of Paris bound the United States to pay Spain for the relin- punishment of her title to the Philippines. Mir. Carnegie did not desire to prevent the ratlfca- tion of the treaty, but he did de sire U prevent the United States from undertaking to control and govern those islands, d proceed ing which he belelved to be fraught with grave danger to us and the responsibilities Gf which he thought we should not as sume.
 Mr. Carnegie has never madC any public reference to tbis part of his talk with President Me Kinlcy, but Mr. Seward says that ill telling him about it Mr' Car negie had laid 10 injunction 0 secrecy upon him and had, there.  fore, felt authorized to make l public.

CAN'T BACK OUT

SUPREME COURT so DECIDES
Governors Attempt to Abrogate Brick Company's Contract
 Comes to Naught.

The readers of The Journal are familiar with the now famous case of E. T. Mcconnell ct. al vs. the Arkansas Brick and Manufacturing Company, which was decided by Chancellor Thos. B. Martin in the Pulaski chancery court few months ago whereby the penitentlary board attempted to annul d contract entered into by the board of commissioners between the Arkansas Brick and Manufacturing Company and the state. The brick company re- fused to allow the commissioners to set aside the contact and car ried the matter into court The ease was first tried before Chan cellor Thos. B. Martin and the brick company won, Judge Mar tin holding that the commission CTS could not lawfully set aside q contract intered into by them as authourzed agents of the state. The board of commissioners was not satisfied with this ruling and carried the matter before the supreme court
 Last Saturday in the supreme court Mr. Chief Justice Bum de- livered very long opinion, af- firming in all particulars the de- cree of Judge Martin in this pen itentiary case. The opinion is entirely too long to give an ex- tenso, hut it may suffice to sa that the ease was tried upon the t''aalrla'"t -..,I 4i... zl...>.....-.-. thereto.
 It will he remembered that Judge Martin overruled the de marrer of the state, and his de- cree, as quoted in the supreme court opinion, is as follows, and sufficiently states the case, viz:
 "Therenpon being well and sufficiently advised as to all mat ters of fact and law arising here in, as shown by the complaint and confessed by the demurrer, the court doth order, adjudge and de cree that the resolution passed by the board of commissioners fol the management of the state pen itentiary of the state of Arkaesas on the 18th day of August, 1901 attempting to cancel and annul the contract purporting to have been made by and between tht parties to it's litigation and fleC as an exhibit to the complaint, be and the same is hereby cancelled and held for naught,
 ''That the defendants, Jeffer son Davis, J. W. Crockett, T. C Monroe, Geo. w.
