FARLEY DENOUNCES
 WABASH INJUNCTION
AGUINALDO WOULD
 HAVE HAD MONARCHY
ACCORDING TO PAPERS CAP. TURED IT WAS NEVER INTEND ED TO MAKE A REPUBLIC OF PHILIPPINES IF REBELS WON.

Washington, March 6.-The bureau of insular affairs of the war department has just published a pamphlet of 4s pages giving the telegraphic correspondence of Emilio Aguinaldo from July 15, 1898, to February 2s, 1899, the period just preced- ing the fall of Manila and following the outbreak of hostilities between the United States forces and the insurgents.
 These telegrams were discovered by Capt John M. Taylor, Fourteenth infan- try. among a mass of papers captured from the so-called insurgent government. They are sufficiently complete to show that the insurgent leader leaned strongly upon others for advice. and that there was serious opposition to his authority even among his own people. and that an attack upon the Americans at Manila had been fully decided upon before the out break of hostilities February I, 1899, and that in the event the struggle should prove successful the new government that would have been created would not have been a republic for titles of nobility were on January IA, 1899, promised to certain insurgent officers as a reward Tor entering Manila and capturing the Ameri- can forces

 BUDGET HAS A MYSTERY.
German Navy Department Makes a
 Secret Out of Estimate.

Berlin. March 6.-The German navy de- partment makes considerable mystery out of some portions of its budget re- qurements. Herr Richter the radical leader, complained in the budget commt- tee today that the government Is simply asking for lump sums for the maintenance of the fleet. and has not c"sn specified the ships or stations on wh !, money IS to be spent. He affirmed that the reich stag had the right to have detailed infor- nation Admiralty Secretary won Tier pitz replied that administrative discre- ton required some reserve. The increased expenses were largely for vessels on for eign service. As a matter of fact, Ger many's battleships were rather behind than in advance of the navai programme.
 Herr Richter again asked for a list of the ships ready for service and for copies of the cabinet orders directing the ships to be put into commission.
 Secretary yon Tierpitz declined to fur nish the latter. but said he would hand Herr Richter personally a list of the ships ready for service.
 The strong German force sent to East Asiatic waters was, Secretary von Tier pitz said. assigned to that stdtlCn at the request of the foreign office.

1t Will Take at Least Month to Dis pose of Treates-Tillman Sounds the Death knelI of crum's
 Confirmation.
BY WArrERsoN sTEALEY.

Washington. March 6.-(special.)-Th democratic senators are feeling good over their caucus today. Arthur Pue German is again in the saddle, and the party Is assured of competent leadership as long as he remains in the senate. He is more than a match for the republican leader Senator Aldrieh, and the Maryland sen- ator's election Is sufficient indication that the fight the democrats will put up in the senate from now on will be color less affair.
 There are also good signs of a bracing up over on the house side. Much depends upon the course the democrats will pur- sue here In Washington next winter.
 There Is a distinct air of encourage ment among democratic senators over the general political outlook, and confidence is expressed that there will be demo- cratic President in the White House two years from now.

NEGRO TEACHERS ADJOURN.
It Is Agreed That 1t Is Best to Turn to
 Agriculture.

Chattanooga, March 6.-The first annual conference of the negro presidents of the colored agricultural and mechanical col- leges of the southern states, was conclud- ed today. The results of this conference are epitomized in .he declaration of prin- ciples adopted by the conference, which the colleges will live up to themselves. and urge upon the colored race. The eor- ference attached considerable importance to the movement to establish central nor nal schools under the auspices of the Peabody educational fund. It was the opinion of the educators that the estaD- lshment of such a school for teachers, as is contemplated by the trustees of the fund, would be a great impetus to the cause of negro education.
 It was agreed that the industrial schools should try to impress upon the colored people that 1t is best for them to turn to agricultural pursuits to better their condition and to shun the cities and towns

SENATE DEMOCRATS
 PROUD OF GORMAN
CHALLENGER TALKS
 TARIFF REVISION
SAYS THAT WILL BE ATTENDED TO IN TIME, BUT NOT ACCORD
 ING TO DEMOCRATIC IDEAs-HE
 DISCUSSES PATRIOTISM.

Detroit, Mich. March 6.-The eigh- teenth anniversary banquet of the Mich- igan Republican club at the Hotel Cadil- lac tonight was attended by 400 persons. At the speakers table were Senator J. H. Gallinger of New Hampshire, Gen. Leonard Wood and former Senator John M. Thurston of Nebraska, the speakers of the evening; Congr grsssniah William A. Smith, the toastmaster; Senator R. A. Alger and Senator J. c. Burrows of Michigan; Captain F. L. Alger, president of the club, and ruinber of other men prominent in Michigan politics.
 Senator Gallinger responded to the first toast Patriotism and Protection" Referring to the revision of yhe tariff, he said:
 "The republican party will attend to that in due time and the revision will be made not according to dsm ocrutic ideas but in consonance with the principles of the party which has always legislated for the best interests of the people ol the United States. We have had enough ex- periences with tariffs for revenue only. But we must not fors t that prosperity and power bring corresponding duties and responsibilities. In the providence of God we have enabled Cuba to take her place among the nations of the world, free and independent republic. We have enforced the Monroe doctrine and thus protected cur neighhors in South Ameri- ca from possible European aggression. We have by the fortune of war, come into possession of the Philippine archl- pelago and other islands. It Is great responsibility, one that we cannot shtrk; duty that we must faithfully perform. Europe Is not to get foothold on Amer ican soil, Cuba is to be protected and the Philippine islands are to remain in the possession of this great American people to be lifted by us in due time to the high plane of American citizenship and human liberty. Along these lines our duty lies and this country will not fail to faithfully and fearlessly discharge it's duty.'
