Oyster Bay, Sept. Ain letter to
Charles A. Stillings, public printer at
Washington, made public Sunday
President Roosevelt wrote that II the
changes In spelling advocated by the
simplified spelling board and put into
use in official documents meet popu-
lar approval, they will be made per-
manent. II not, he wrote, they will
be dropped. The presidents letter
follows:
"Hon. Charles A. Stillings, Public
Printer, Washington, D. C.
"My Dear Mr.. Stillings: | enclose
herewith copies of certain circulars
of the simplified spelling board,
which san be obtained free from the
board at No. Madison avenue, New
York city. Please hereafter direct
that in all government publications
Of the executive departments the
above 300 words enumerated In cir
cular No. 5 shall be spelled as therein
set forth.
IF any one asks the reason for
the action, refer him to circulars 3,
4, and 6, as issued by the simplified
spelling board. Most of the criticism
Of the proposed step is evidently
made in entire ignorance of the very
moderate and common sense views
as to the purposes to be achieved,
which views are SO excellently set
forth in the circulars to which have
referred. There is not the slightest
intention to do anything revolutions
airy or initiate any far-reaching pol
icy. The purpose simply is for the
government, instead Of tagging be-
hind popular sentiment, to advance
abreast Of 1t and at the same time
abreast Of the views of the ablest and
most practical educators Of our time
as well as of the most profound schol-
ars-men of the stamp of Prof. Louns-
bury and Prof Skeat.
IF the slight changes In the spell
ing of the three hundred words pro-
posed wholly or partially meet popu-
lar approval, then the changes Will
become permanent without any REFER
ence to what public officials or indi-
vidual private citizens may feel; II
they do not ultimately meet with pop
ular approval they will be dropped and
that is all there Is about It, They
represent nothing in the world but
a very slight extension OF the move
ment which has made agricultural i'm
plement makers and farmers write
"plow" instead of plough" which has
made most Americans write honor"
without the somewhat, absurd, super
flous u and which Is even now MAX
ing people write program without the
me, Just as all people who speak
English now write bat set dim
sum and fish instead of the Eliza
bethian bate settle 'dimme' 'summe'
and fyshe' which makes us write pub
lic' almanac era fantasy and wa
eon, instead of the 'publick' 'almanack
.aera' 'phantasy' and Wagon OF our
great-grandfathers.
1T is not an attack on the Ian
guage of Shakespeare and Milton be-
cause it is In some instances a going
back to the forms they used, and In
others merely the extension OF chang
es which, as regards other words,
have taken place since their time. i
il not an attempt to do anything far
reaching or sudden or violent, or IN
deed anything very great at all It
Is merely an attempt to cast what
slight weight can properly be cast on
the side Of the popular forces which
are endeavoring to make our spelling
4 little less foolish and fantastic.

Havana Sept. 4.--The hopes Of
those who on Saturday night tenta
lively suggested a proposition Of mu
tual concession as means of ending
the rebellion were shattered Sunday
when President Palma called General
Cebreco, one Of the proposed peace
commissioners, to the palace and in
formed him that the government had
no concessions to offer or accept and
no intention other than fighting the
matter through and suppressing the in
surrection. General Menocal, who
headed the list Of the proposed com
missioners sent word to the promoters
of the project that he would have no.
thing to do with 1t unless he could
approach the insurgents with def
mite offer Of some kind from Presi-
dent Palma. The promoters, how
ever, are not entirely discouraged, and
another meeting may be held later.
The Associated Press learned Sun
day from source ordinarily absolute.
ly reliable that the inner circles OF
the government had about reached a
tentative understanding that If the
government was unable to control the
instruction by September Is 1t would
ask for the assistance Of the Unitea
States, but when this assertion was
preached to members of the govern
ment it was met with such an EN-.
phatic denial as to leave no room for
doubling that whatever the govern.
ment may have decided, 1t has decid
ed to see the thing through by all
the force Of arms it can command
and abide by the results.
While the publication OF the peace
project Sunday caused much discus.
sion there was little hope evinced
that 1t would succeed as 1t was con.
coded on all sides that the govern
ment, in the present temper of the
masses, would lose any elections
which might result from it. Besides,
since the government is unwilling to
relinquish the idea of central govern
mental control of municipalities this
also would be serious stumbling
block to such settlement.
One Of the main reasons why the |
government feels encouraged to pur-
sue tht fight to the end by force Is,
as outlined to the Associated Press |
this evening by Font Sterling, secre-
tary of the treasury, its abundance of
money.
1--WE have nineteen million dollars
on hand" said the secretary of the
treasury. Don't overlook that. And
we have a monthly income of two
million dollars. The August receipts
and customs duties were greater than
ever before. We will not need to ne.
gotiate loans for some time to come
at the least. Yes, most of what we
have has been appropriated by con
gress, but these appropriations must
wait We shall use the money In
putting down the rebellion"
New York, Sept. 4.-The Cuban
government transport Maria Herrera
arrived Sunday from Havana in
charge of Mario Garlic. The trans
Fort will load six million rounds OF
ammunition, battery of rapid fire
guns and other munitions of war to
be employed in the suppression of the
Cuban rebellion.

MANILA, June 2O.-A band of 300
Pulajanes, under Ceasario Pastor, at
tackled the town of Burauen, on the
island of Leyte, yesterday.
They killed five policemen, wounded
five and captured the remainder of the
force except the lieutenant who was in
command.
Pastor, the Pulajane leader, was
killed during he encounter.
The attack occurred at an early hour
in the morning. The police ere caught
unawares and their sentinel was rushed
from his post The bandits tken entered
the tribunal and hand to hand fight
took place. The police fought desper-
ately but were overcome by superior
numbers.
The loss of the Pulajanes is believed
to have been great, but it cannot be
estimated, as they carried off their dead
and wounded ,.fter the light.
The municipal records were taken
from the tribunal, piled in the street
and burned. The destruction of these
papers was one of the most serious
phases of the raid, as they included
deeds, licenses receipts, etc. The safe
containing the town funds was not dis
turbed. The bandits carried away the
arms of the police and a quantity Of
ammunition.
A detachment of constab bl. ary under

LONDON, June 21.-The correspon-
dent at Fee of the Daily Mail tele-
graphs that he has had an interview
with the sultan of Morocco, who, when
reluctantly induced to talk about the
Algeciras conference on Moroccan re-
forms, complained bitterly that dur
ing the progress of the conference he
was never consulted.
The sultan added that he agreed in
principle with the convention, but that
"some notifications are necessary and
1 must have time to consider the
treaty"
He especially desired to have clause
inserted empowering him to dismiss
the European commissioners as soon
as, in the opinion of the European gov
ernments Morocco was established on
a firm and sound basis. Such clause,
the sultan said, would be the recogni-
ton OF Moroccan independence and
tend TO allay the suspicious of the
Moroccan people.
The sultan confessed that his great
ambition was to have railway built
to develop Moroccan trade.
