The Instruction Ended.

The Philippine commission, in its annual
report. which is the third it has made, says
at the outset:
1.-The instruction. as an organized at
tempt to subvert the authority of the United
States In these islands, is entirely at an end
and the whole of the Christian Filipino pop
ulation, with the exception of few thou
sand persons in the Moro country in iso-
lated towns, are enjoying civil government.
Much remains to be done in perfect
ing civil government. In marshaling the
forces of law and order against lawlessness
and disturbances, and in teaching the peo-
pie of the Philippines not only that they
have rights under the law, but also that
they cannot hope to enjoy such rights I'M
less they acquire courage and independence
sufficient to assert them against attempts
by their fellow Filipinos to perpetrate the
system of 'caciqueism,' or, literally trans
lated, 'bossisn.'
Commissions Recommendations.
The commission concludes with the fol-
lowing recommendations, which are re-
specially urged on the attention Of Con-
gress:
1. The establishment of a gold standard
in the islands, and Of banking corporations
empowered to issue circulating bank notes
under proper safeguards.
2 The reduction of at least 20 per cent of
the Dingley rates of duties upon goods i'm
ported into the United States from the
Philippines.
g. An amendment Of the Philippine act so
that the limit upon lands which may be
sold or be held by individuals or corpora
lions from the public domain shall be in
creased to 5000 acres or in the alterna-
tive, so that the government shall be given
the power to lease for sixty years upon
competitive bidding tracts from the public
land aggregating in any individual or cor
porate lessee not more than 10000 acres.
1t says this legislation Is necessary to the
development Of the Islands. and that as the
government owns $4,000. 600 out of 10000
600 acres in the archipelago, there is no
danger Of concentration Of ownership in
individuals or corporations.
f. That the Philippine act may be amend
ed by repeating the limitation which for
bids an Individual or corporation from hold
ing an interest in more than one mining
claim.
s. That all bonds issued by the insular

Fluctuating Currency.

The governor points out, among other ills
from which the country Is suffering that Of
fluctuating currency. On the subject Of
labor he speaks Of the need of making tenn
porary provision such as is recommended
by the full commission.
Touching on the organization of labor
unions, the governor says that If properly
directed the movement may give to the
laboring classes a sense Of the dignity Of
labor and of their independence. He re-
to the unlimited Introduction of Chinese
into the islands to be logical and justified
and says: Another phase of the labor
question which does not seem to have had
its proper weight with the merchants Of
Manila in their demand for the admission
of Chinese coolies is the great obstacle
which such policy would present to the
opening by the United States of it's markets
to Philippine products"

NEW YORK SCHOOLS
State Superintendent Skin-
 ner's Annual Repo- ;.
COMPULSORY EDUCATION A SUCCESS
A Lack of Thorou@hness I'm EIe- mentary Branches Complained Of-BibIe Reading Without Sec
 tartan Teaching Allowable.

ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. 19.-In his an, nual report to the legislature State Su. perintendent of Public Instruction Skinner advocates the taking of $150,- GOO from the free school fund for the payment of the tuition of the nonresi- dent pupils in academic grades. This would give the superintendent a. con trol now in the hands of the state re- gent. The report shows that $3S, ,441,- 90S was expended the past year for ed ucation. During the past school year there have been fifty seven college graduate certificates granted, making a total of 947. This proves that the ranks of trained teachers are increas- ing.
 The statistics on compulsory educa- don show hearty cooperation be- tween state and local authorities. It is evident that the enforcement of the law requiring United States flag to be displayed near every public school building in this state meets with pub lie approval, since reports for the past school year show but 40 infra ctions of this law as against 315 in 1901.
 Average cost of maintenance last year was $27,OOo. This is insufficient and less than other states provide. Our normal schools lose their best teachers because progressive localities offer more attractive salaries.
 The attention of the legislature is particularly called to the lack of thor oughness in elementary branches in our schools, with view to the enact ment of corrective measures. h. stances are cited where the eight years of grade work is cut down to give more time to the academic work, and the. classes in English are cut out to allow for classes in Latin, French and German. >. : ~....s.
 That extracts from the Bible are read without comment by the reader in every public school in New York city, while in the rest of the state it is not generally done, leads Superintend- ent Skinner to announce boldly that despite the ruling of his predecessors that it violates the constitution, he will not stop such reading in other portions of the state, provided there ss no sectarian teaching accompanying it. In report to the legislature MT. Skinner calls attention to the fact that the legislature in 1888 refused to en- act a law forbidding the reading of the Bible in the schools. He says: Dur ing the seventeen years that I have been connected with this department have never known of an appeal or protest from an inhabitant of the city of New York with reference to reading the Bible in the schools of that city, although 1t has been daily read in eysl cry one therSs during all that period, ,1

RICH FIND OF COLD
News of Fabulous Wealth
 Comes From Dawson.
A WILD STAMPEDE IN PROGRESS.
The New Strike Is In American Ter ritory North of Tanana River and Three Hundred Miles
 From It's Source.

SEATTLE, Wash, Jan 19.--A spe- cial from Dawson says tremendous ly rich strike of gold has been made fifteen miles north of a point on Ia naua river, 300 miles from it's source, in American territory, and stampede to the scene is in progress.
 A special to the Times from Dawson says that tremendously rich strike, the magnitude of which has not been equaIed since Bob Henderson told his wonderful story of the Klondike, has been made eighteen miles north of a point on Tanana river 300 miles from its source. The district is in American territory. Circle City has been depopu- lated, and wild stampede of pros pectors from all the surrounding coun- try is in progress. As yet few have reached the place.
 The holes that have proved the wealth of the country were sunk late last winter, and the first man to reach Dawson from the new country has just arrived. He is a Japanese named J. Wada, we'll known in Dawson, wEmre bis veracity and honesty are unques- toned. So far the report has not been spread to any extent in Dawson, but the little that has been told has created an excitement that surely means a stampede,
 The gist of Wada's report is that the district resembles the Klondike in it's physical formation, but has heavier growth of timber. Gold in widely diff ferent kinds had been found in eight different creeks when Wada left for Dawson on Dec. 9. "'e}
 The original strike was made on Pe- dro creek, running parallel with the Tanana. about eighteen miles from the river. This creek is staked for miles.
