Notwithstanding which he desired to go
on record as believing that convictions

sigmatized the ordinance as "vicious
legislation" and said that to continue
these prosecutions will cost the city from
$500 to $1,000.
Councilman Sherwood asked the attor-
ney, if it was his intention to prosecute
these cases, why did he give 5 days
notice, to allow the evidence to be got rid
of? At this point voice was heard IN
the audience saving, "The slot machines
didn't get days notice." Sherwood
further asked if it was not fact that the
court records OF the monthly fines OF the
inmates OF those houses would not be
sufficient to convict. The only reply OF
Attorney Shields was that he gave this
notice SO that the ordinance could be
repealed.
The attorney further said he wished to
change the opinion filed last week, in the
South Aberdeen street Improvement
matter. He was now Of opinion that ii
the planking was done on one side OF the
street center, that side alone would have
to pay for it.
In regard to the old warrants against
the improvement OF west Heron street,
he said they should be dropped from the
city books, as they were no longer city
liability.
The council appeared to pay no atten-
ton to the suggestion Of the attorney that
ordinance No. So be repealed, evidently
concluding that if that official wished to
institute cases that will cost from $500 to
$1,000, when he is CONVINCED that convic-
tons cannot be had, they would leave
the responsibility with him.
The attorney was directed to prepare
resolution for the planking of Heron
street, from L street to Washington
street.
Marshal Graham called attention to
certain confictions in curfew ordinance,
which were referred to the attorney.
The following bids were received for

MANILA. April 13-Major Little
john w. r. Waller of the Marine Corps
has been acquitted of the charges
against him. by "a vote of eleven TO
two the court-martial. composed Of
Army and Marine Corps officers, held
that in killing eleven natives of Samar
last January without trial he was act
ing i'm accordance with the rules of war
the orders of his superior and the mill
tary necessities of the situation.
Major Waller had been on trial since
March 18th. He admitted the killing
of the Filipinos and further that he
was in full possession of his faculties
at the time, but he pleaded thCF he act
ed in accordance with orders.
1t is expected that General Jacob H..
Smith, who commanded the depart
ment, will be brought to trial for giving
the orders under which Major Waller
acted. General Chaffee has the matter
under consideration and orders con-
vening a new court-martial are expect
ed soon.
General Smith was recently trans
ferred from the Philippines to the COM
mand Of the Department of Texas at
San Antonio. Before the transfer he
had received the surrender of the last
important band of insurgents in Samar,
and his work had caused General Chat
fee to announce the practical paciica-

TAFT Goes TO ROME
TO NEGOTIATE REGARDING THE
FRIARS
The Permanent Peace of the Philip
pines Depends ON the Removal of the
Friars Entirely.

WASHINGTON, April 13.-Gn Admin
istration circles i'm Washington there
has been some amusement over the
talk about the so-Called mission to
Rome The facts are that Governor
Taft has impressed very strongly upon
the President and Secretary of War
that the question of getting rid of the
friars was of vital consequence to peace
in the Philippines and that to accom-
plish this it was necessary to deal di-
reCtly with the head of the corporation
involved, Rome. After much Considera-
tion it was decided that Governor Taft
should stop at Rome on his way to the
Philippines to consult with the church
authorities and see if it would not be
possible to come to some agreement on
behalf of the Philippine Government
There would be nothing of any kind
or shape in the matter which would
suggest anything in the way of diplo-
matte relations. 1t would be purely a
business transaction. The United
States Government is neither favorable
nor hostile to any particular sect. 1t de-
sires to treat all alike with exact jus
tiCe 1t does not wish to do injustice
t. the friars by taking away their
lands without compensation On the
other hand, it recognizes that, although
the Christian FilipinOs are practically
all Roman Catholics, they were never
tEeless a unit in demanding that the
frars leave the island. Governor Taft
better than any other man could eX-
plain this state of things at Rome. 1t is
believed If an honorable and satisfac-
tory arrangement can be reached the
result will be most beneficial to the ISL
ands.
