STRICT INSTRUCTIONS
Given by Gen. chaffec to Prevent Mill
tary and Civil Friction.

Washington, March 17.-Rumors of
cases of conflicts of authority between
the civil and military authorities in the
Philippines find substantial confirma-
ton in an order recently issued by Gen.
Chaffee, the division commander at
Manila, to the commanding officer of
the 9Th Separate Brigade operating in
Iloilo. The order is as follows:
There appears to be some misunder-
standing as to the extent and under
what circumstances the military may
act of its own motion in provinces
where civil government has been put
into operation by the Philippine COM
mission. The division commander de-
sires to avoid friction with the civil
authorities and you are informed that
the civil government entertains a
strong suspicion that the army in
MANY instances wilfully and for ute
rior motives, unnecessarily interferes
with the civil officials in their pre-
sclibed duties, making arrests when
they should not do so, usually on sus-
picion rather than for just cause; if
not for cause, then unwarranted arrest
because of the fact that civil author

You are advised also that the vice
civil governor has been informed by
the constabulary and others that the
presence Of the army is no longer nee
essary or advisable at very large ma
iority of the stations now occupied by
it in what are known as pacified prov
inces. The division commander desires
that a strict Interpretation be put upon
paragraphs of general orders which
embrace the idea of non-interference
by the military in civil affairs.
1.-The military will be upheld in at
lacking all armed bodies which officers
believe are intended to disturb the or
derby and peaceful authority of the
United States in the islands. 1t will be
well, however, to determine in advance
whether it is United States authority
aimed at or whether mere local dis
orderly band is out for robbing, the
suppression of which the civil authori-
ties may prefer to deal with single
handed, unaided by the army of the
United States.
You are advised also that many
complaints are received by the civil
governor to the effect that soldiers are
disorderly in the communities where
stationed, that they are harsh and ill
treat the inhabitants. No excuse can
be accepted for complaints of this sort.

ALL WORKING.
Only Is Strikers Are Now Idle
at Boston.
StopI Work Because Two Of Them
Lost Their Old Places.
Speedy Settlement of Greatest Strike in
East for Years.

Boston. March 1.-THE great strike
of last week, involving 10000 union
men, was completely wiped out, today
When practically every man went back
to ms work under conditions but slight
ly changed from those existing when
the trouble began. Tonight, the only
incident in the labor situation is the
strike of 10 longshoremen at the Clyde
Line wharves. This is not actually al
offshoot of the big strike, but an in
dependent strike brought about by two
discounted workmen. This morning
practically all the longshoremen APP
piled for and got work, thus solving
the freight problem on the water front
At the freight sheds of the railroads
the number of men left without i'm
mediate employment was less than 500
but during the forenoon it was believed
that most of the men were used in one
way or another somewhere, in the ef-
fort to move freight eXpediously.
About noon IS men on the Clyde Line
struck because two men taken back did
not get their old places, although given
work. The board of arbitration does
not consider this part of the general
Strike, Dul 10 " SCtllG
Tonight, the board issued a review of
the day with the expectancy that it has
closed up the biggest labor trouble in
the East for many years. The bulletin
follows:
THE strike situation confines to inn
prove. There have been numerous con-
erences with both employers and en-
ployes which have resulted in many
misunderstanding being cleared UP
and a number of men have returned to
work.
'"The difficulty of the longshormen
employed by the Clyde Steamship Co.
was adjusted at an early hour, this
morning, by the reinstatement of all
their former employees who returned to
work at noon. After working two
hours the men expressed dissatisfac-
ton, claiming that two of their num-
Der had not been given their old pO-
sitions, and struck work until the mat
ter could be adjusted. A further con-
ference in the early evening was with
out result, but the matter will be re-
sumed in the morning in the hope of an
early settlement.

more frequently than would be the case
if friendly relations had not been rup-
tured. The above controversy is some
thing new, and, though following the
recent sympathetic strike, it has no
necessary connection with it, and is not
an example that should be followed.
1.-THE statement previously made con-
corning the coal teamsters difficulty
was accurate, Notwithstanding contra
diction.
1.-The efforts Of the prominent bust
ness men, labor representatives and
the state board have for their object
the reinstatement of the largest posi-
BILE number of men who participated
in the strike. Continued patience is
still necessary in order that their object
may be successfully accomplished.
