The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1902-06-12

Coming down to the two bills which
have been proposed in Congress by
the republican party, the democrats
have opposed them because they were
essentia. combinations of the imperial
policy Of the party IN power. In
order to bring to the attention of the
people the pernicious results of such
a policy it became necessary to ex-
pose to public view the atrocities
which had, perhaps inevitably, &C
companied the war OF conquest which
the United States was waging in the
Philippines and the result has been
that the republicans, absolutely unable
to present any logical refutation of
the charges made against their policy,
adopted the position of defenders of
the army and appealed to the patriot
ism of the people against what they
termed the islanders of the demo
Gratis" Space will not permit a
lengthy examination OF the Philippine
debate but it is worthy of remark that
there cannot be found in the C0A. .
gveSSi0naI Ree0rd a single speech
which, when shorn of its oratorical
ornamentatlon and valnglorlous ex-
aggeration, presents common-sense,
logical defence of the imperial policy
of the administration. Moreover
there will be found the greatest mis-
representation of the democratic po.
sitlon which has been, briefly ex-
pressed, simply a demand that guar
antee of ultimate independence, al
such time as the Filipinos may have
demonstrated their capacity to make
the proper use of their liberty, be
made now, and before the country is
irrevocably committed to the imperial
istic policy. The contention that the
democrats, while opposing military
domination have also opposed bill
which extends civil government is IN
worthy the men who have advanced
it for, as they we'll appreciate, demo
cratic opposition has been well ground
ed on the fact that, while the Lodge
bill ostensibly extends the civil govern
ment it is simply a transfer of th'

Supt. Aver, of the Santa Fee, was in

to think that, in view of the fact that
in a recent controversy relating to the
erection of an additional elevator at
that place the railroad officers took
the ground that there were enough
elevators at that point to handle the
business, it was doubtful if a site
would be granted. He took the sta
tistics furnished him and stated that
he would submit the matter to the

case the request is refused the farmers
are talking of erecting their elevator

OUR FOREIGN BANKS.
Government DepOsitOries in New
InsuIar Possessions

New York, Jan. 2-The plans of the
International Banking corporation,
which has been named by the president
as repository for the portion of the Chi
nese indemnity due to the United
States have been explained by General
Thomas H. Hubbard, the president of
the board of directors of the new cor
poration. He says that after the Phil
ippine agency is established, other
branches will be instituted in the prin-
cipal cities of the new insular possess
sions of the United States. The ulti-
mate purpose is that the entire Orient
and South and Central America shall be
comprehended by the operations of the
bank.
..All of this is but the natural out
growth of the commercial and territor-
ial expansion of the United States
continued General Hubbard. Hereto
fore there has been no particular need
in the United States for a banking in
stitution doing an international busi-
ness but since the Spanish war and the
tremendous trade of recent years with
South America and the promise OF
constantly increasing commerce with
China and the Orient, the necessity for
just such an institution as this has de-
veloped.
Heretofore all of the exchange with
foreign countries has been handled by
the banks of Berlin and London There
are a number of international banks in
these cities. 1t will be the purpose of
the 1htSInauOna1 Banking coTpbrdIOH
to secure as much as possible of the eX-
change business heretofore handled by
these foreign banks with which this
country is concerned
So far comparatively little has been
done by the new bank, its charter by
special enactment of the Connecticut
legislature having been obtained only
last June. General Hubbard said that q
branch would be established in New
York city, although the bank here
would not be for purposes of deposit,
exchange alone being handled This
New York bank is to be a sort of clear
ing house for the various branches con-
trOlled by the main institution. The
erason why the charter was obtained
in Connecticut, according to General
Hubbard is found in the fact thu laws
of that state are unusually liberal 10
banking institutions.

or advises others to do so. The governor

A MISUNDERSTANDING.
How Lady Pauncefote Happened to
Head the Line.

Washington, Jan. "A misunder-
standing which is particularly annoy
ing to the officials who were at the
White House reception yesterday ap-
pears to have arisen from the fact that
Lady Pauncefote, the wife of the Brit
ish ambassador with the embassy staff,
held the place of honor at the head of
the diplomatic line. as the reception be-
gan. The rule in such cases is quite
clear and well established in preced-
ents; name ely, that the ambassador
present longest in continuous service
at the capital shall head the line. It
was through an act of gallantry and
graciousness on the part of the Ger
man ambassador himself that this rule
was not applied yesterday. Lady
Pauncefote informed the German am
bassador of her husbands illness and
of her recognition of the fact that he,
Herr von Ho1leben. was for the day
dean of the diplomatic body. The am
bassador declined, however, to take ad-
vantage of his position and himself as
signed to Lady Pauncefote the place
she occupied at the head of the line
with the embassy staff.

y FIREMEN
OVERCOME.
Fierce Battle With Flames on
Union Square, New York.
Morton House and keith's
Theatre Afire.
LASTS THREE HOURS.
Loss is Estimated at 30 ThOus-
and Dollars.
Guests OF the Hotel Had a Mar
row Escape.

New York, JanS2.-The Morton House
and Keith's theater at Union Square
and Fourteenth street were threatened
with destruction by fire early today.
One hundred frightened patrons of the
hotel were forced by the smoke to make
exit from their rooms and a great deal
of excitement was caused in the neigh
borhood by the fear that the fire would
spread Twenty-Five firemen were over
come by smoke and the fire department
worked three hours before they had the
flames under control. The loss was es-
timated at $4,000. The fire was discov-
cred by the night engineer of the Nor
ton House. An alarm was turned in by
him without waiting to warn the guests
of the hotel, who when they were
awakened found the Railways full of
smoke. None of them waited to dress.
but gathering up their valuables, they
hurried to the ground floor where they
found a refuge in the restaurant which
was free from smoke The firemen tried
to fight the flames from the sidewalk,
but were obliged to lower ladders into
the cellar and fight from there. The
smoke in the cellar was so dense that
many of the firemen were overcome by
it. An ambulance was called from a
hospital and all the men were reSuscita-
ted in short time
1t was three hours before the hotel
guests were able to return to their
rooms. All were badly chilled and
many of the women were hysterical
from fright.
The origin Of the fire could not be
learned.
The hotel and theater are in the same
building. The fire was confined to the
lower part of the hotel The theater
was not damaged.

1T is COOLING.
Mr.. Jennings Tells Why Temperature
Is Changing.

A high barometer coming into Kansas
from the Rocky mountains is pushing a
low barometer, which has been in Kan
sas, before it and will result in cooler
weather in southeastern Kansas tonight,
according to the government forecast
The forecast sent out today is Fair
tonight and Friday. Colder southeast
portion tonight" The minimum tenn
perature for today was 81 at o'clock.
For the past few days the minimum
temperatures have occurred several
hours after the sun has begun to do
business. Observer T. B. Jennings ex-
plains that fact as follows: 1.-The in
fiuence of the sun does not begin to De
felt until some time after it has risen.
In summer the influence of the sun is
felt before it is up. The cooling process
of radiation in winter goes on until
checked by the sun. The natural law is
that the coolest part of the day occurs
when the amount of heat lost each in
stant by radiation from the earth just
equals the amount received from the
sun. The warmest occurs when the
amount of heat received from the sun
each instant equals the amount lost by
radiation" The observer thinks the
statement is very plain.
The hourly temperatures for today
according to the government thermom-
eter were as follows:

After Pardoning Bartley Gov. Savage
Takes Trip.

Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 2-Gov. Savage will
leave today for a short tour of the south
ern states, his final destination being
New Orleans. At the state house it was
understood that the pardon of Joseph
BARLEY, the defaulting state treasurer,
was to be the final act of executive clem-
ency for the present holiday season No
local happening for months has caused
the sensation that did the release of Bart
ley.
Gov Savage said that he had received
many personal expressions of approval of
his act as well messages of congratu-
lations- kilograms of the same tenor
poured into the BARLEY home and friends
and former neighbors called to express
their good will. In this city there were
also expressions condemning the govern
or's action, accompanied by predictions
that it would have an important political
bearing. Mr.. BARLEY would make no
statement
The theory. that the government was ac,
tuated by the belief that the pardoned
man would be in a position to make res
titution of part of the half million dollars
lost to the state was neither affirmed or
denied
