PHILIPPINE BILL TO
COME UP IN HOUSE
Belief at Capital is That Administra-
ton Il Eager to Free
Islands.

WASHINGTON, Aug. %. - The
house rules committee Thursday I'M
expectedly brought out a special rule
for the early consideration Of the ad-
ministration's Philippine bill and it
will he rushed through within the
next two weeks.
The bill sets no date for the COM
plete independence OF the Philippines.
but il is understood an effort will be
made TO amend il 10 provide inde-
pendence in the near future.
From an authoritative source II was
learned Thursday that Pres. Wilson
and Secy Garrison want the bill hur-
ried through.
The belief at the capitol Is that the
administration regards the present as
timely occasion 70 press the indie
pendence OF the PHILIPPINES and pro-
poses TO take advantage OF the general
sentiment for peace by suggesting that
the United States prepare 10 withdraw
from the islands and thereby avoid the
possibility of complications.
The bill places in the hands of the
people OF the PHILIPPINES a greater
measure OF control OF their domestic
affairs than they have ever had, the
purpose being to enable them 10
establish full government which will
be in position to take over the admin
istratiOn OF the islands whenever the
United States consents TO yield them
up.

HENRY C. FRlCK IN
SERIOUS CONDITION
Death OF Pittsburgh Steel King Ex-
pected at Any Moment at
Beverly, Mass.

BOSTON, Aug. %. Henry c.
Frick, Pittsburgh steel king, who has
years, is at deaths door and no less
than seven doctors, including several
of the most famous physicians in the
country attended his bedside expecting
death at any moment. Thursday night.
Mr.. Frick was stricken with a slight
shock a little over a week ago. The
illness seemed so trivial at first that
the local physician, DR.. Patterson, was
summoned and il appeared that he
could handle the case without assist
ance. However Mr.. Frick grew stead
lily worse and finally DR.. Patterson
informed the family that it would be
necessary TO summon specialists.
Accordingly seven physicians, in

EXPECT ANOTHER
BIC FIGHT SOON
London Paper Commenting on
Situation in France Says
Mobility of Germans is Sur
prise to Allies.

LONDON, Aug 2S.-The Chronicle
publishes the Following analysis:
The situation IN northeastern
France has now become exceedingly
critical and little information is likely
10 reach us here until another battle
has been fought. The Germans have
brought up their corps through Bel
GUM where their communications are
secure and the allies are falling back.
Ii is greatly to be feared that the
French did not penetrate the German
strategic plan and that troops have
been diverted TO a useless offensive on
the Alsace and Lorraine borders
which should have been elsewhere.
The fate of the lost provinces and OF
much else will be decided not on their
own soil, but by German armies which
are now contending possibly on the
line Of Arras. Cam brai and Lacateau.
There are no Notifications here, but
on this line or further on to the rear
field entertainments will have been
prepared and a good defense should
be made.
"But the Germans are moving very
rapidly Their mobility is surprising
and il is attained largely by use of
motor vehicles. some of them carrying
guns and all carrying men to positions
far advanced. From the very begin
have thrown their whole weight upon
the allied left wing and there can be
little doubt they will endeavor to prac-
tice the same strategy i'm the new sit
uation. This II is that gives such crit
zeal importance to the battle which
has now begun. If the Germans
should be able to strike out between
Amiens and the sea they would get
astride our communications and pos
sibly cause a further retirement.
There is still ground for the hope
that the German advance may be re-
PEELED. The British troops have COW
cred themselves with glory and the
nation is proud of them, but in a great
battle they must conform to the num-
Der of the allies and, In this new po-
sition of affairs they must look after
themselves and their communications.
Ii is important that our troops should
be in communication with their base
and receive a constant stream Of re-
Inducements ammunition and stores"
