handled, failed to pass, and there was a
compromise on 5000. The salary of the

stead of $25. A. S. Chew was elected

e Miles Report.

The demand that the report of General
Miles on the Philippines should be given
TO the public became so universal that
the wal department was forced to heed
it, but only a part of it was given out. 1t
has created a juror from one end of the
country to the other. Replies had been
prepared beforehand by the government
which were sent out with it, so as to
lessen as far as possible its effect. Gen
eral Miles says:
Il do not think there is today a people
so sorely afflicted as the 5000, 900 O. in
habitants of this (Philippine) archipel-
ago. Their country has been devastated
by wan. In some places locusts have
destroyed the crops. PestiIence has pre-
vailed, resulting in the reported death of
nearly $4,000 people, while it is estimat-
ed that the number not reported is fully
as large"
The general tells how the people every
where appealed to him and how he issued
an order to the commanding general in
the Philippines to stop all further cruel
ties. The general gives names, dates and
places where barbarities had been prac-
tlced upon the people, prisoners murder
ed, population forced into r~econcentrado
camps. 600 being jammed into one
building, where many died from ~suffoca-
ton and other things of like nature.
General Davis, judge advocate general,
In the reply prepared and given to the
public along with General Miles report,
does not deny the charges, but lays all
the blame on the volunteers. General
Davis says that investigation have been
made in these cases, but they are espec-
tally difficult because the incidents com
planned of were lot made known at the
time, and officers and soldiers of the vol
unteer army who have been named have
been discharged.
General Miles directs attention to the
acts of Recommendation by General Bell,
and claims that they were in direct vio-
lation of the law. He says the law was
also violated in handling and buying
large quantities of rice, which was sold at
a profit. The people who were in the
Recommendation camp were, says General
Miles, considered prisoners of war, but
were compelled to buy food from those
who held them at a large profit" Cen
eral Miles characterizes this as unpre-
cedented. He speaks of the magnitude
of the transaction, which involved 81
100000 pounds of rice and and other sup
plies at a cost of $3O6, 500. He says that |
ian extraordinary feature of this transac-
tom is that the action was disapproyed
by a division commander, who assumed
command, and who turned the matter
over to the civil authorities.
This report came like a clap of thunder
from a clear sky. People have long sus-
pected such things, but the close censor
ship that the secretary of wal has order
ed has prevented the people from know
ing the facts.

a visiting nobleman sought in vain for

lage Of yours?"
"My Lord repliedth yillager, "some

For a century that village had been in
fuenced by the power of one mans per

eighteenth century in England. "You
cannot cut John Wesley out OF the ma
tional life" he says. mo single figure

IN THE MATTER OF COAL.
The Public Has No Share in the Bene-
fit of the Strike.
Hartford .'Courant.

Hartford .'Courant."
Looking backward at the disturbance
which came with the coal strike there
are several things which come into view.
One of them is the piteous condition in
which the coal companies would be left
in case they had to raise wages. 1t was
a question of extinction for them.
Now 60 buy coal or read your stock
market reports. It is Sc a ton, if you
want any coal, and this is the most pro-
ftable year the coal companies have ever
experienced, although they had to do
what was going to ruin them and raised
the pay of their help. 1t is announced
in Wall Street that the Delaware q Hud-
son Company is making 20 per cent. a
year or better at present prices and pro-
duction.
The fact is that the coal companies
have been carefully ruined into the great
est prosperity that they have ever known.
They had to raise wages and then they
raised coal, too, and we, the blankety
public, are paying for both increases,
and the increase has been SO judiciously
arranged that the net profit is greater
than ever before. 1t is a safe prediction
that long before coal gives out something
will be discovered that will make its
place good; and whether that car be
cornered, too, is not to be told until the
discovery comes. Probably it will be
too abundant and available to be con-
trolled.
But that is somewhat remote and has
precious little to do with So coal. The
question is what we are to do now from
day to day, with coal pegged up where it
is and the peggers encouragingly an
~nouncing that it will be higher each
month if another strike has to be fostered
to boost it. Apparently the only thing
to do is to pay So and shut up.
But, meanwhile, each American citizen
can watch the price of the coal stocks
and take a national pride in the fact
that those great concerns have escaped
the destruction that even their shrewd
managers foresaw SO distinctly for them
and are more profitable than ever in their
history. Some calamities prove blessings
and the strike has turned out that way
for the eo aJ HpSaai9eth1 Heifi6 6r hfa a5j9of, bfSs aa

TO ABIDE THE CAUCUS.
Democratic Senators Will Vote To-
oether on Certain Issues.

Washington, Dec. 15.-The Democratic
caucus today, after considerable opposi-
ton, passed 4 resolution declaring that
caucus action of the party hereafter
would be binding and that all members
should abide by such caucus action. The
caucus will assemble tomorrow. when. it
is expected the Panama treaty will be ta-
ken up.
The resolution to make the caucus
binding provides that any action so in
dorsed must have a two-thirds vote. The
Panama canal situation was discussed
and it was developed that sufficient
number of Democrats would vote for the
treaty to insure its ratification.
The action of the Democratic caucus in
making the future DEGREES of the caucus
binding. was not unanimous Senator
CockreIl opposed the proposition. saying
that during the past fifty years such a
proceedings was not regarded as neces-
sary by the Democratic party
To this reply was made that the Demo-
cratic party had been in politics but little
during the last fifty years. Senator Stone
took issue with his colleague and favored
firm caucus action. When the vote was
taken Senator Cockrell. on account of his
views, was excused from voting Two
other senators voted against the propo-
sition.
Senator Mallory moved to exclude from
the operations Of the agreement the pend
ing bill on reciprocity, but this was
voted down. 1t was stated that matters
on which caucus action was to be taken
would be considered as they arose.
