the presence of fire in the coal stored
in the vessels bunkers As the steam

to quell the flames by the use Of steam

smoke to the deck.
The Beechy is said to have met with
fine weather on the voyage. The time
was considerably reduced owing to the
fire in the bunker coal which would
have to be discharged before all traces
of the blaze could be removed.

"Cowards" in the Philippines

From the New York Mail.
The town of J 5, capital of our Suiu
archipelago in the Far Eastern sea. is
besieged by Moro insurgents. 1t is an
interesting situation. In the manage
inent of these Mussulman irreconcilables
we have employed great deal of con-
ciliation and trustfulness. Apparently
the policy worked well. American ad-
ministrators, for time, walked unarmed
among these barbarians, where the mere
appearance OF a Spanish official once
meant an attempt at assassination.
But Just as we were concentrating
ourselves that the Suu lion had at last
lain down in peace with the American
lamb, the lion began to rage again. Sol
diers and police were assassinated on
their beats, and the Moros broke out in
open insurrection.
The Philippines are not all inhabited
by Moros. This is fortunate. But a
policy of perfect trust is as inappro-
priate for Manila as it is for Jolo. We
are accused by the Moros of cowardice
because we have not ruled with an iron
hand. And in reality. the Filipino mind.
Moro or Tagal, does not comprehend any
other standard of conduct than the gos-
pei of force.
IL the Filipinos were abandoned to their
own devices, the Americans who have
ablished themselves in the island would
very shortly find themselves in the same
general situation as the Americans in
