CABLE MESSAGE FROM ACTING
GOVERNOR WRIGHT.
No Armed instruction in Any of the
Philippines Not Under Civil
Government.

Secretary Root today made public the fol-
lowing important cable message from Act
ing Civil Governor Wright in regard to i'm
proved conditions in the Philippines:
MANILA, May q, 1902.
Secretary of War, Washington:
With reference to your cablegram OF
18th, outside of Moro country, the only por-
ton of the archipelago not organized under
civil government are Lepanto Bontoc Ba-
tangas, Laguna, Principe, Infanta, Mindoro,
Samar and the Paraguan and other small
groups No armed instruction in any Of
them No reason so far as relates to peace
full conditions why civil government in all
may not now be established. Special gov
ernments for EontOc and Lepanto, inhabited
exclusively by peaceful Igorrotes, will be
organized in few days. Will organize a
civil government in Laguna Immediately.
Batangas, formerly organized, was turned
over to military authorities by Philippine
commissions act No. 173; will repeal same
to take effect July 4. The only reason for
not giving the act immediate effect Is that
many people in this province have only re-
Gently returned to their homes, and in order
| to prevent possibility of suffering think
best to have the military look after them
until the date named because the latter
nave perfected organization. which the
civil authorities lack. Crops now being
planted will mature by August 1. Whilst
Principe and Infanta could be organized at
once, 1t is difficult to look after them until
We receive vessels building, say by
September 1; few Inhabitants and unim-
portant. Mindoro and the Paraguan group
are large islands Sparsely populated and
difficult of access without vessels. For
these reasons think best to leave the mill
tary temporarily in charge, because they
have transportation facilities. Under Span
| ish regime Bontoc, LepantO Principe, In
| fanta and the Paraguan group did not have
provincial government, but were command
| ed by military officers, and Mndoro was at
| tached to Martinique.
Major General Adna r. Chaffee concurs

Commissioners requesting that the alley In
the rear Of lots to II. in square 426 be-
tween 18th and Sth and K and L streets

an offer was made to dedicate the land
for the same. The writer asks that all

flee Is willing to accept dedication of the
alley as public one. provided it is made
by all the interested parties, which does
not seem to be the case in the communi-
cation in question. The computing engi-
neer states that Richard c. Lewis does
not appear, and, on the other hand, he
knows of no way in which taxes already
assessed against this private alley can be
waived, and he believes that they must
be paid before the dedication can be ac-
cepted.

DEALING IN FUTURES ILLEGAL
Statutes and Court of Illinois Are Up
held by Decision OF supreme
Justices.

WASHINGTON. March 3.-The United
States supreme court today affirmed the de-
cree Of the supreme court Of the state OF
Illinois in the case OF Alfred @. Booth
against the State OF Illinois, involving the
validity OF the state statute imposing a
fine Of from $40 TO $1,000 for dealing in
futures. The decision of the state court
upheld the law. and today's opinion sus-
tained that decision. The opinion was
handed down by Justice Fuller and was
dissented from by Justices Brewer and
Peckham.
The Illinois law involved Is section 1sO Of
the criminal code OF the state. and It pro-
vides that whoever contracts to have, or
give to himself or another. the option to
sell or buy at future time, any grain or
other commodity, or forestalls the market
by spreading false rumors to influence the
price Of commodities or corn. shall be fined
not less than $40 nor more than $1,000, or
confined in the county jail not exceeding one
year, or both.
In delivering the opinion OF the court
Justice Harlan said that Booth had been
indicted "on the charge OF violating the
statute so far as It related to options to
buy grain or other commodities at future
time" He was found guilty and adiudged
TO pay fine Of 800.

Rebels Drive Back COnstabuIary,
Eleven of whom Are Unac-
counted For.

MANILA. March 3.--Twenty-hve mem
bers Of the constabulary Of Morong encoun-
tered eighty well armed insurgents today.
The former fed after expending all OF their
ammunition. Eleven Of the constabulary
are unaccounted for. The same band Of
insurgents turned back a commissary
wagon, but did not molest the escort Of
three men.
Governor Flores Of the province Of RIAL
says the members OF the band who recently
captured Ampil. the president Of Caints,
Morong province we're neither Ladrones nor
insurgents. He thinks a private feud was
at the bottom of the matter. Word has
been received that Ampil is still alive, but
under torture and expecting death. As
previously set forth in these dispatches,
Ampil was an enthusiastic American sym
pathizer.
A force Of constabulary and military are
securing the country. and bands Of insur-
gents and Ladrones are nocking to the
island of Leyte. The constabulary officials
have been notified of the arrival Of a band
of malcontents from Bohol and other places.
They are well armed and are serving un-
der Capile. An extra force OF constabulary
will endeavor to handle the malcontents.
General Lukban has offered to assist in
suppressing the insurgents. IL given a GER
tifcate that he conducted his share Of the
war, according to civilized usages. His
offer has not yet been considered favor

RIO eRANpE cAsE REMANpEp
Action BetweeR Government and Irri-
cation Company Returned TO
Territorial Court.

WASHINGTON, March 3.--The case of
the United States against the Rio Grande
Dam and Navigation Company today was
passed upon again by the supreme court OF
the United States and again remanded to
the territorial courts OF New Mexico for
the further taking Of testimony.
The case involves the right to construct a
dam at Elephant Buttes in New Mexico un-
der the treaty with Mexico prohibiting the
placing Of any obstruction In the river cal
culated to prevent the navigation Of the
stream. The case was heard by this court
in 1899 and remanded for the purpose Of
making inquiry as to the effect the dam
would have on the navigsbIlity Of the
stream below the dam.
Justice Harlan handed down the opinion
Of the court today and he intimated that
the territorial courts had acted too precipi-
lately in refusing to grant more time for
the taking Of testimony in accordance with
the request OF the United States for such
extension. He did not, however, reverse
the verdict on this ground, but on the gen.
eral principle that 1t is an equity proceed
ing, affording the widest latitude In such
matters.
I'VE cannot" he eaid. resist the convic-
tion that II we proceed TO final decree on
the present record great Injustice may be
done to the United States as well as to all
interested in preserving the navigability Of
the Rio Grande.'
Under the order Of the court both sides
are to have the opportunity to adduce fur
ther testimony.
