Went to Philippines on Presidents
Instructions,
Is DEVOTED TO TIE ARMY.
No Conditions Exist IN the Islands
That Warrant Resort 10 Med
ieval Cruelty.

New York, May l5.-The Army and
Navy journal viii print tomorrow
letter from Gen. Nelson A. Miles, In
which the writer says that he went to
the Philippine islands not as a tourist,
but In an official capacity, and that the
instructions addressed to him as lieu
tenant general commanding the army"
came from the highest AUTHORITY, viz,
the president, In which he was directed
to give especial attention to "the in
struction, discipline and supplies Of the
army"
In referring to his official report on
the Philippines, Gen Miles says that
mo one can have more sacred regard
Tor the honor of the army than myself"
Coming TO the subject Of crueltes IN
the Philippines Gen, Miles letter reads
as follows; 1T Is idle to assume that
campaigning In the Philippines has con-
ditlons that warrant resort to mede-
val cruelty. and that such departures
as have existed should not be overlook
cd and condoned.
ut Is gratifying that the serious Of
lenses have not been committed By the
soldiers unless they were under the d.
rect orders OF certain officers who were
responsible Soldiers have withheld fire
when ordered TO shoot prisoners, pro-
tested against the acts Of cruelty and
written TO relatives at home urging them

crimes. II VIII ever be one ofthe glories
Of the army that such deeds, committed
by whatever authority, are abhorrent to
the American soldier The officers who
are responsible, using chiefly creul
Macabebes, do not by any means con-
sutute the American army, and there
must be very unmistakable line
drawn between the great body OF hon
orable and faithful officers and brave
soldiers whose records have been COM
mendable. and those. OF whatever sta
ton, whose acts have received, and
should receive, the earnest eondemna-
ton Of all honorable men,"

THE PRICE OF ANTHRACITE
Retail Rates Not Announced Yet

Coal companies have not announced the

received orders to reduce the price. but
dispatches from New. York Indicate that
April 1 coal will go down and begin its
fresh start by. advances of. 10 cents a
month to the price which will prevail next
winter This is the regular rule to get
consumers to put in coal during the sum
mer: Last spring the low price was s775.
This year the people will have to. pay. for
the increased wages to miners and the in
creased cost Of lake transportation, 10
cents a ton. Nothing Is said about the eX
penses OF the late strike. However, the
starting price will be $3.50 and this will be
advanced each month by 10 cent incre-
ments until SO is reached. The price now
is $3.50. but that Is abnormal @,.-,~ s.:
1t was announced in Wall street yester-
day that the wholesale price Of anthra cite

10 cents ton and thereafter each month
prices will be restored 10 cents a ton until

TO OFFSET THE METER
Alderman Merrill Recommends an
crease In Water Rates-Grad-
uated Scale Suaoested,

The growing popularity of water meters
was shown by Alderman Merrill at the
waterworks committee meeting yesterday
as the chief reason for substantial in
crease In the water tax. Under the old
system Of charging for faucets consumer
paid about $3.50 a quarter for water.
With the meter the consumer has been
able to cut down his water assessment
to about 20 cents. The committee is con-
templating the institution of a graduated
scale, by which Is cents 1000 gallons
would be charged to those who use 10, 900
or less a quarter, 10 cents for those using
from 10000 to 100000 gallons and cents
for those using more than 100, 900 gallons
Alderman Merrill explains that this in
crease in the cost of water is necessary
to meet the expenses of the department,
whose income has been greatly reduced by
meters. -.:.~-.~ =
The committee instructed the city clerk
to advertise for bids for iron pipe for
next year The council will purchase a
total of about so, 900 TONS

INCREASE IS UNEVEN
Reason Owners Of Retail District
Property Ask for Partial
Abatement.
They Say That Burden Has Been
Unevenly Distributed on Down
D.. Town Properties. -

{ wv. L. Harris says that the request for
the abatement of SO per cent of the in
crease in the tax assessments on retail
district property, request which the
county board turned down yesterday be-
cause of lack of jurisdiction. was based
on the inequality between the increases in
the district named and those in the whole
sale and other portions of the CITY,: Mr..
Harris says: s7>Fl&si ..
The assessed valuation was raised 20
per cent in 1902 over that of 1901, which
Increased the valuation by 10000, 600.
Out Of this increase about $4,000. 600 was
placed on the fourth ward and $4,000. 900
on the retail district which l have
bounded ~,~
THE taxes in this district were in
creased from. 40 to 60 per cent, and this,
we claim, was meauitable. inasmuch as
the same increase was not made in the
tax of other property located outside of
this district. We did not look for any
such great increase. 1t was more than we
could ever expect In the> very nature Of
things.
IF there had been an increase Of from
to 10 per cent. we should not have no
ticed the inequality. but this was a ser-
Gus proposition from a business stand
point An increase of per cent in our
business Is quite an item; 10 per cent is
serious question, and 20 per cent is SO
great that it is practically impossible of
auJuSlH2ent, anO q business 1dtdllly Is lii
minent.
L have made a list Of about twenty OF
the large houses in the jobbing district
outside of the retail center and in most
cases I found that the tax had not been
increased at ALL while in others 1t had
only been increased by from to 10 pei
cent. We do not believe that the rea
estate on which large business houses are
located should be increased in valuation
only in the retail district.
I'VE are willing to stand our share o1
the increase In valuation, but do not
think 1t has increased from 40 to go pei
cent In the retail district and not at al
in choice portions of the city adjacent
to this district.
THE large business blocks have to pa,
such enormous taxes this year that it will
take Is per cent of the gross income
This is the case with both the Syndicate
block and the Andrus building, two Of the
finest properties on Nicollet avenue.
1.-THE assessors department in st. Pau
has been conducted in an entirely differ
ent manner. The business men have
worked together for st. Paul and, while
they have tried to raise as much money
as possible, they have had the co-opera-
ton OF the assessors department. and III
no part Of the retail district is real es-
tate, assessed for more than $1,000 front
