THE PHILIPPINES

Interesting Notes From tho SpecialCorrespondent of tho HongkongTelograph

Manila Jan 17 Tho troublo be-

tween¬

tho Filipinos anil tho U Sgovernment has undergone no ap-

preciable¬

change either one way ortho other

Last week the whole city wasthrown into a state of trepidationowing to a report that the nativeswere rising and that tho Filipinoarmy was attacking tho town Theexcitement was immense there waBa regular stampede and in less timethan it takes to relato all the shopsin town were closed One couldlook down a whole street and notfind a living being nor a carriageThe garrison stood to4artns withinten minutes of the alarm whichproved to be a false one It all oc-

curred¬

ovor a little disturbance inTondo district where there wassome dispute between the Filipinosand the Chinese in the market

On Saturday last a circular wasposted on the walls of the city of avery seditious nature It purported tobe signed by an American soldieraudis an appeal to his comrades in theUnited States army to disregard thecommands of officers concerningany attack upon the insurgent armyaud if forced into action to fire inthe air so as to Bhow the Filipinosthat the American soldiers are insympathy with their struggle for in-

dependence¬

Following an allegedreview of the events preceding thecapture of Manila by the Americansand the statement that it is evidentthat the American governmentintends to retain the islands iB thestatement that the retention of theit lands is contrary to justice nod atvariance with the frauk olid noblepromises made to General Aguiualdo Then follows the suggestionthat the soldiers ought to unite toprotest to the commanders againstthe retention of the islands or atleast we should observe an attitudecontrary to such wishes so as to letthem kuow our disgust In the casethat thoy tho officers should orderus to fight we ought to obey butfiring in the air so that when theFilipinos see it they would do thesame Then follows the statementthat wo should give immediatelyto tho Filipinos our arms TheMonroe doctrine is brought iu andthe argument ib made that to takethe islands is to blot the fair escut-cheon

¬

of the country to which weowe allegiance and says let us notobey tho orders to fight the Filipi-nos

¬

With a statement concerninghis reasons for concealing his namethe anonymous writer concludes bypretending to sign the symbolioletters of a fraternity W F

The English of the document isvery amusing and it is apparentthat the article was originally writ-

ten¬

in Spanish aud then literallytranslated into English by one whohad a most rudimentary knowledgeof the language

A Filipino dentist named Arevalohas been arrested on suspicion ofbeing implicated in its promulgation He denied the authorship ofthe document but did uot deny thathe was connected with tho publication of tho same Arevalo iB beingdetained and it is not known whatsteps the authorities intend to takeiu the matter

The El Commorcio publishes astatement to day to tho effect thatMabini Presidont of the FilipinoCouncil has been relieved by Maria ¬

no FrioB owing to tho continued ill ¬

ness of the formerPresident MoKinley haB decided

to submit tho Philippine questionwith its myriad complications to acommission which will be instructedto thoroughly investigate everyquestion iuvolved including that ofthe capability of tho Filipinos foreelf government This commission

will foi aist of Admiral Dewey Qonoral Otis Colonel Denby ex Ministerto China Brigadior Geuoral Whittier formerly Collector of Customsat Manila aud Mr W Sherman thtewell known New York banker andfinancier Tho two first named mem ¬

bers of the commission are alreadyhere aud the others will sail imme-diately

¬

for Manila With such acommission everything concerningthese islands will undoubtedly babrought out iu its truo light

Tho situation in Iloilo is verygrave Conciliatory stops are absolutely useless and the Americantroops cauuot attempt to land unlosvery strongly reinforced If GeneralMillor had disembarked his men im-

mediately¬

after his arrival and m rupied the town there would ml havebeen any trouble at all but a it ishe allowed the Filipinos to tuakw alltue necessary preparations for opposition t heir small army has been rein-forced

¬

by ten ten times its uumbdruntil they are in or position to takeup an attitude of defiance Businessis at a complete standstill and theforeigners have taken to the Amer-ican

¬

ships for protection All thiswhile the expedition remains idle iuthe bay unable to accomplish any-thing

¬

Since capturedThe President of the Visayau Re-

public¬

Koque Lopez has transmit-ted

¬

his reply to President McKin- -

leys proclamation It was to theeffect that the Visayan State Councilfound itself compelled to choose be-

tween¬

the authority of the UnitedState whkh its officers were pre-tending

¬

to impose aud that of theCentral Revolutionary GoverumeutThat while the proposed authorityof the United States dated from thesigning of trie treaty of Pari3 onDecember 10th 1898 that of theCoutral Revolutionary Governmentbesides beiug founded on the sacredand natural ties of blood languagehabits ideas aud sacrifices wasfounded principally upon that poli-tical

¬

constitution which was bornwith the revolution Please tellus savs his message in all sinceri-ty

¬

how we could conscientiouslyshow a preference for the authorityof the United States which onlydates back from the Treaty of ParisDecember 10 1898 of which by theway we have never been officiallyinformed over the authority of thoMalolos Government founded upondeeds of conquest previous to theTreaty of Paris and the natural tiescreated by that political constitutionwhich was established from the firstmoment of the rebellion commencedon August 11189B In conclusionLopez says that after mature deli-beration

¬

tho Council speaking forall tho states of the Visayas insistsupon refusing to consent to the dis ¬

embarking of American forces without express orders from tho Government at Malolos

General Millor in responding tothis communication expressed regretat the determination of the Filipinosto resist the authority of the UnitedStates and pointed out that theclaims of the United States both inCuba and in the Philippines werejust and legal because they had notonly been won by conquests on landaud sea but had been finally recog ¬

nized by the former ruling power inthe Trpaty of Paris

Therefore auy improvement ofthe situation at Iloilo does not seemlikely in the near future

Qno of tho amusing incidents ofthe Iloilo expedition is that thenative garrison of tho Iloilo fort mis ¬

took the Baltimores meal peunantfor a challenge aud three times aday they too hoisted a red flagwhenever the uruisers pennant noti-fied

GAMBLERS AT WORK

frouioter Thurstous newspaperotherwise known as the Advertiseron Saturday last contained an arti ¬

cle headed Locking up Money inwliiuh the Minister of Finance is

bUiiiotl for having in the Treasurythe sura of 82960495 We quoteliotn iho article the following

This amount out of circula-tion taking into consideration thenumber of inhabitants aud theamount of coin and currency in thecouutry would be under ordinarycircumstances enough to excite ap-

prehension¬

and fear of financialpanic

May wo ask the writer of the arti-

cle¬

in question what there is in exist-

ing¬

conditions of our money marketto excite apprehension and fear offinancial panic Is the reserve inthe Treasury such a contraction ofthe currency as to create alarmHave prices of commodities fallenone of the first signs of a dangerouscontraction Is it not a fact thatprices aro advancing Have not ourbuilders and contractors stated pub-

licly¬

that one reason for the advancein tenders for building is the ad-

vance¬

in building materials Didnot the sale of real eBtate on Satur-day

¬

last prove conclusively thatthere is currency enough for all leg-

itimate¬

enterprises

The writer under review thengoes on to state that in the UnitedStates in 1886 when the Treasury atWashington held 250000000 thebankers became alarmed Have ourbankers shown any alarm at whatthe Advertiser styles a locking upof money Is it not a fact that thebanks of our city have money enoughfor all legitimate business

But the Advertisers financial

writer goes on to say as to conditionsin the Unitod States in 1886 thatthe money market became string ¬

ent and the prices of stock declin-

ed

¬

Do not tho reports of tho Ho-

nolulu

¬

Stock Exchange show aBteady advance in prices of soundstockB for tho past month Where ¬

in then have we any signs of such a

contraction of the ourrenoy thatshould oause apprehension and fearof financial panics to the generalpublic

No the only place where the signsindicate a panic feeling is in thebreasts of the quartette of promot-

ers¬

who have the Kihei scheme inhand If The Independent believedin gambling and was in the habit ofgiving pointers to its patrons itwould say that odds might be laidthat the Advertisers so called financsal article was inspired by one ofthe aforesaid quartette

Until the well known symptomsof daugerous contraction of ourrenoyare clearly indicated in other chan ¬

nels of trade than stock gamblingwe would advise good citizens tosupport the Minister of Fiuance in

a reasonable financial policy In themeantime give a wide berth to thecharmers who offer shares in corpo-rations

¬

that are as yet in the doughnot being even half baked of whichare Kihei Lanai and possibly others

It is a matter of regret with manyof our best people that the Adverti-ser

¬

should be prostituted to thouses and purposes of promoters ofquestionable schemes as a touter
