CONDITIONS IN PHILIPPINES.
Boston Citizens Protest Against Sup.
preston of the Truth.

Boston, Mass, March 1.-Two meet
Hall today ito protest against the
suppression of truth about the Phil
irpines and praying for further official
injury into conditions there"
The men active in preparing for the
meetings have been prominent in the
New England Anti = Imperialistic
League. Colonel Thomas Wentworth
Higginson presided at the first meeting.
Charles S. Hamlin declared that the
meeting had been called for no parti-
son purpose, but was merely q gather
ing of the people of Massachusetts to
consider action upon a vital question
fore u.s." he said, whether govern
ment officers are h servants or mas
tiers. Terrible charges have been
brought against certain officers
charges of cruelty, almost unparalleled
in history. Charges were made that
prisoners of war were murdered after
the battle of Caloocan. General Otis
sent the charges to the advocate, re-
commencing court martial proceedings;
the judge advocates reply was unfav-
Orable, and this reply has been for
warded to the adjutant general of the
army by General Otis. with the state
ment that he doubted the wisdom OF
d court martial n no action has ever
been taken by the war department. If
any one who ever raises his voice in
protest he is branded as an assailant OF
the honor of the army
II have talked with officers concern
ing these charges and 1 believe that the
feeling is almost unanimous that the
honor of the army demands the fullest
investigation and the prompt %acquitta'
or condemnation of the officers charged
with crime Tho ootinr of tho nrnCanf
administration n the senate commit
tee in refusing to probe these charges
to the bottom, is but another mode OF
expressing the belief that these charges
of crime are not a few scattered cases
but pervade the whole army

SAVED FROM WATERY GRAVE.
Crowded Steamer Sinks, But Most of
the Passengers Are Rescued.

Palatka, Fla, March 19.-The steamer

morning little after 3 o'clock, four miles

Manuel Myers, the pilot who was at
the wheel when the boat went down
was the first to discover hat the boat
was sinking. He Immediately called
Captain MERCER who had just retired.
Engineer Frederick Priest who was on
duty at the time, also noticed the pc
culiar lurching Of the vessel and turned
on the midship syphoons but finding
no water he started aft and discovered
that the vessel was sinking stern first.
Engineer Rosingal by this time was
on deck and ordered all hands to the
cabin top. In an instant, the vessel
made a lurch to port, striking the tim
Der or the north bank of the river and

is accredited as we'll as the interests of
his own country. The journalists mis-
understood Baron Won ~Sternburg, as he
explained in his report to the foreign
office. I must beg the members not to
attack the German representative at so
important a post as Washington for
matters which later prove untrue.
Professor HaSSe also mentioned hat
Baron Won Sternburg married an Amer
lean lady. Petitions Of our ministers
TO marry foreigners have been treated
differently at different times, which is
only natural Such cases cannot all
be considered by the same formula
The principle has been held. especially
under Count o Caprivi that a Ger
man diplomatist must marry only a
German woman. Prince Bismarck ex-
pressed the same principle, but he per-
mitted numerous exceptions" The
chancellor then mentioned cases where
Prince Bismarck allowed DISTINGUISHED
German diplomatistS to marry foreign
ers. He referred to the case of General
Count Won Schweinitz, who was Ger
man ambassador at St. Petersburg. and
quoted Prince Bismarck's letter. giving
him permission to marry an American
as follows: Refusal to grant permis-
sion to Count Won Schweinitz to mar
ry an American will exercise an ex-
tremely unfavorable influence upon our
relations with the United States which
nav been SO carefully promoted. There
are enough tendencies at work against
US in America and u refusal would be
utilized in a hostile sense"
Il believe, therefore," Won Buelow
continued, that we can apply the same
principle to our present representative
at Washington. Prince Bismarck took
the greatest care to foster good rela-
tions with America and our oversee
interests are today much more weighty
thar in the seventies or eighties, and
nobody can dispute that our relations
with America are just as important
now"

WANTS TO PAY THE DEBTS.
International Syndicate Offer to As
sumo Ve~nezueIa's Burdens.

Washington, March 19.-The Internal
tional syndicate, headed by the Selig-
mans has renewed on a larger scale
than at it's first venture, the offer to
ers on conditions. L N. Seligman has
been in Washington two days in that
pursuit n he has been at the White
House and a communicated with
some members Of the diplomatic body.
1t is understood that the demand is
not now mad for a guaranty by the
United States government that these
investors shall ecoVer their money
from Venezuela when the loan becomes
due. But while the syndicate has not
renewed its request as first made, it
does want some visible exhibition of
the interest of the United States in this
matter; something that night connect
the United States government with the
enterprise. 1t wants an American to
be appointed an agent and stationed in
Caracas to manage the redemption of
the loan, and if necessary to collect a
certain proportion Of the customs re-
ceipts. 1t is believed this proposition is
many, for if it were accepted, Venezue-
la could pay her creditors within a few
days and the disagreeable necessity of
adjusting the question of preferential
payments would vanish.
Mr.. Bowen does not favor the prop
%osition.

today hat Jose Estrada Palma, a son
of Thomas Estrada Palma, president of
the Cuban republic, n Miss Mabel

Miss Jacobs sister, to the parsonage
Of the New York Presbyterian church
in Harlem where they were married by
Rev. Duncan Mcmillan, after which the
