OF DEAD FROM THE philippines.

vVSTSauSeT Namoo OF PriV0te S0t0t0TU
Who Die In Philippines viii be Ca
bled to Washington at Cost Of $50
Name.
Oyster Bay, Aug. 1e.-The President
yesterday gave orders that hereafter
the names of the enlisted men OF the
army who died in the Philippines be
cabled to this country every two
weeks. When the volunteer army was
In the archipelago 1t was the custom
to cable the casualties, but on the
withdrawal of that army the practice
was discontinued.
The subject was discussed while the
President was entertaining number
OF visitors ut luncheon yesterday.
Among those Mt his table were. Major
Generals H. G. C0rbin and s. B. NJ.
Young, Henry LOOmis, the author, ia
cob A. Riis of New York, Robert A.
Morris, chairman Of the New York
County Republican committee, Former
Governor David r. Francis of Mis-
souri,, president of the Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition Company, Henry NJ.
Warren of Philadelphia, son of Bish-
op Warren of the Methodist church,
and Congressman Mercer of Nebraska.
The subject of cabling the names OF
the dead soldiers was preached by Mr..
Riis. He made the point that under
the present system the relatives of en-
listed men who died in the Philippines
were kept in ignorance of this fact for
from eight to ten weeks, while the
families of officers who succumb there
are Informed ut once. The President
was greatly interested in the matter,
and as soon as 1t was explained to him
nrdnrnd 10 tvxot rnk
General Chaffee Mt Manila to cable his
full casualty list twice month.
While 1t costs on an average of $3.50
to cable news to this country OF the
death of an officer In the Philippines,
1t costs about $50 for each enlisted
man. This difference Is due to the
fact that the war department has code
numbers for all of its officers, while
the names of the enlisted men, togeth-
err with their company, regiment, ETC.,
must be sent in full.
Former Governor Francis discussed
st. Louis Exposition affairs with the
President. He informed the President
that the dedicatory ceremonies would
occur April Both next, this being the
one hundredth anniversary of the
transfer of the coded territory from
the French government to the United
States. President Roosevelt promised
to attend these ceremonies and further
stated he would have our representa-
tives abroad instructed to use their
best endeavOrs to induce foreign gov
ernments to have exhibits Mt the expo
sition. He instructed Generals Corbin
and Young, who sail tomorrow on the
Fatherland for Germany, to become
the guests Of Emperor william during
the maneuvers of the German army. to
do all they could to further the inter-
ests Of Germany in the exposition.
Mr.. Mercer discussed the political
situation In the Northwest and he in
formed the President that his recep-
ton In Omaha next month would not
be confined to one political party, but
would be participated In by all par
ties.

White Race . Myth.

San Francisco, Aug. 18.-A story dis
putting the existence OF race of white
men on Mindanao island was told to-
day by G. G. Stone. recently member
OF the army engineering corps In the
Orient, who returned yesterday. Stone
was commissioned by Captain Bald
win to make q tour Of the island with
the purpose, in part, of nscertnining
the truth Of the reports that race
OF people distinct from the typical
Moros inhabited the interior portion Of
Mindanao.
Stone declares that the statements
made as to the existence of native
white men on the island are not found
ed on fact. He met many persons
whose facial characteristics denoted
Caucasian ancestry, particularly in the
matter Of complexion. when contrast
I'd with the Moro skin. hut his in
Iuiries led to the development that
these lighter-hued people were de-
scended from Castillans who had long
ago settled ON Mindanao and had mar.
Rid native women.
