GAGE STANDS WITH SHAW
Former Secretary Of Treasury Approves
Currency Plan Of Successor,
WOULD SLIGHTLY MODIFY SUGGESTION
Frank 4. Nanderlip Thinks Mr..
schiH's Remarks DO Not Refer
to the Immediate SituR-
ton In Markets.

NEW YORK. Jan. 5.-Lymsn j. Gage.
former secretary OF the treasury. said to-
day that he agrees with Jacob n. Schim
in the opinion that a great panicis inevita-
BILE unless steps are taken to remedy the
inelssticity of the existing currency sys-
tenn.
II agree positively with Mr.. Schff. said
MIR. Gage. that the monetary conditions
which have existed in this country durins
the last six days are disgraceful to us as q
nation and I further agree with him that
stunning panic is but a matter Of time
unless something is done. The more
promptly and effectually this is done the
better for us.
I'm my opinion there Is no immediate
danger, but the danger itself is apparent
and If the country sits passive under exist
ing circumstances the country will suffer
don't understand how any thoughtful
financier can fail to recognize the peril.
81 see Mr.. Schff objects TO Secretary
Shaws recommendation OF an emergency
circulation of heavily taxed bank notes
holding that such a plan would facilitate
speculation rather than the legitimate in
terests which stand in need at present. I
may say that I believe Secretary Shaw's
idea an excellent one-with certain modi-
flcations. With these notifications be-
lieve his proposition would provide a cure.

In It's Relation TO the Church OF Rome
There are many points OF agreement,
he said. between the two branches, both
in their doctrine and practice.
Piety, in its accepted sense, is marked
feature OF Russian public and private

The answer is long one and involves
many considerations. There is naturally
In the first place. the Byzantine origin or
the Russian church.

separated, were temporarily divided on
the basis of union In uolnts OF doctrine
and differences in matters Of discipline,
The creeds must be one, but the liturges
may be different"

CUBAN REVOLT
OF 1906 PASSES
into HISTORY

Havana, Oct. 12-The Cuban revolution
of 1906 now seems to have passed entirely
into history Reports from all parts OF
the island indicates that the disarmlng OF
the rebels is practically complete. few
scattered bands are still at large and
horse stealing and petty robberies are
likely to occur in remote districts. but
outbreaks OF consequence are almost inn
possible The work OF replacing tho
marines by troops will begin soon and
go on steadily. Gen. Bell will derect the
operations for some weeks.
Gems. Guerra and Belancourte started
riot this evening by parading through the
city at the head OF their staffs They
were followed by men carrying a banner
with the inscription, Long Live the Lib
eral Party" The paraders were pursued
by a bowling mob
The Provisional Government will have
nothing TO do with the question Of the
sovereignty OF the Isle OF Pines or with
the separation OF the Government OF the
island from the rest OF the Cuban Re
public.
The executive authority Of the United
States already has declared that the Isle
Of Pines belongs TO Cuba and has en-
bodied that affirmation I'm a treaty con-
ceding the sovereignty Of the island %
Cuba and this treaty Is now pending rati-
fication in the American senate. The en-
tire matter being one for the adjudca-
tion OF the state department. the Pro-
visonal government. which is wholly
under the war department, will not mix
therein.
The mode OF government Of the Isle OF
Pines as part OF the Cuban Republic may
be altered or amended, but the desire OF
Isle OF Pines Americans for Territorial
or municipal government as part OF the
United States cannot be conceded by any
action on the part of the Provisional
government OF Cuba or the war depart
ment. The president OF the American
Association OF the Isle OF Pines has not
yet interviewed Gov. Taft on this mat
ter, but the most that is likely TO be
gained will be the placing of an Ameri-
can military officer as temporary Gov
ernor OF the Isle in lieu OF the present
Cuban Mayor. whose relations with the
American residents have not been pleas
ant
The American residents OF the Isle have
adopted unanimously a resolution exon
Grating Secretary OF State Root and Gen.
Leonard Wood from all blame I'm connec-
ton with the turning over OF the Island
to Cuba, and they feel that this step
ought to open the way to negotiations for
making the Isle American territory.
They consider the present condition OF
affairs opportune for securing a settle
ment OF the matter. which they believe
may hang fire Indefinitely in the Ameri-

christianity Is n religion In that II has

thought it strange that the missionary

inseperable: and he wished 10 state that

whose object Is TO teach the fundament-
al principles OF the Christian religion and

THE FILIPINO HAS HIS
OWN WAY OF WORKING

In the Worlds Work Hamilton Wright
in his article. The Development Of the
Philippines" gives the following instance
of how the Filipinos work:
when the construction company began
operations they employed about 500 men.
On the first Monday the 300 men all APP
peared for work. on Tuesday only $50
turned up. on Wednesday there were
about 500 So II f1uctuated. The superin-
tendent made inquiry. The Filipinos were
like children. oh, Senior, what does II
matter TO you, Senor, whether we do this
work today or tomorrow or Sunday? We
ask wages only for the work we do The
superintendent replied that it was neces-
sary that the work be done during the
specified periods, ,-andth he would dis
charge any man who failed TO report for
work for two consecutive days unless for
some unusual cause. The men, after that.
reported promptly for duty. Soon after
ward il was discovered that in the after
noon they became weak and listless. IL
was found that they ate no lunch at the
noon hour. but merely slept idly in the
shade.
The superintendent then arranged to
give each or the workers a peseta (ten
cents, American money)s at noon time.
He also took care that at noon each day
there should be on hand a food vender TO
sell the natives at reasonable cost a few
simple, nutritious foods of the kind to
which they are accustomed Thereafter
the men worked efficiently all day. After
several weeks, however. II was found that
many were deserving to go home to their
families--for the Filipino Is devoted to
his home. 1t was decided 10 remove this
cause OF trouble. The families were loca-
ted in homes built for them close 10 the
spot where the labor was performed. Now
this colony plan is adopted by many OF
the large companies. which provide be-
sides the homes. churches schoolhouses,
a cockpit. dance hall, band for the
