THE PHILIPPINE DANCER.

The Philippines are not only a
costly charge on the people of the
United States, but they have very
quickly developed their perilous
character to us as q tender point
of our physical domains under in
terrational complications. The
wrath of the Japanese on the other
side of the world would affect us
very little if we did not have that
excrescence, SO to speak. on our
body polite over there for them TO
take their spite out on in the event
their bad feelings go far get the
better of them. As the New Or
leans Picayune says:
1.-The recent misunderstanding
with Japan would never have given
us any occasion at all for uneasi-
ness were it not for the Philip
pines. japan would be no match
for us if it were merely a question
of defending our own coasts and
boundaries, but when it comes to
keeping her out of the Philippines
the situation is entirely different.
1t can thus be readily seen that
the Philippines may become
source Of humiliation TO us at any
time.

Washington. = A notable confer
ence on the subject of trust prosecu-
tons was held at the White house
Friday night. Those who participated
were President Roosevelt, Secretary

Secretary of the Treasury Cortelyou,
Secretary of Interior Garfield, Attor-
ney General Bonaparte, Interstate
Commerce Commission Knapp and
Lane and Frank B. kellogg of Mime
sofa, special counsel for the govern
ment. The conference began shortly
after 9 o'clock.
The discussion took a very wide
range. Much of the time was given
to the Hartman Alton deal. Every
phase of that transaction was thor
ougnly gone over and discussion was
participated n more especially "
the president, Mr.. kellogg, Attorney
General Bonaparte, Commissioners
Knapp and Lane. The conclusion was
promptly reached that however dam
aging the evidence might be against
Mr. Hartman, the testimony he had
given in the interstate commerce in
vestigation had given him complete
immunity from criminal prosecution
Commissioner Knapp explained that
he did not complete his investigation
and that therefore he was not prepared
to give definite opinion as to the
sufficiency of the evidence to warrant
the government in instituting at this
time suit to nullify the Alton deal.
