The refusal of the Republican this measure unless the protection to the Sugar reduced the obnoxious Sugar senators to consider trust should be restored gives evi- dence that the President and Repub- liean party in Congress are willing to refuse relief to Cuba and totally ignore American consumers rather than ebandon their alliance with the trusts, “The failure of all reciprocity legis- lation with Cuba rests upon the Re: publican administration, which is willing to reduce the duty on theraw sugar of our producers, but unwill- ing to destroy the sugar monopoly. “Resolved—That the Republican majority in Congress is dominated and controlled by the trusts and monopolies which have the great in- dustries of our country in theirgrasp, as shown by its action in passing an anti-trust bill through the House of Representatives of the Fifty-seventh Congress in the closing hours of the session, the Senate refusing to con- sider the same, as a subterfuge tide over the election of 1900, That bill has been abandoned and they have ever since refused and do now refuse and fail to bring in any meas- ure to suppress the trusts or to fa- vorably report any of the numerous anti-trust bills introduced by Demo- cratic members during this Congress, “Third—That we favor the imme- diate passage of a measure toamend the present anti-trust law so as to more fully protect trade and com- merce against unlawful restraints and monopolies and also a measure to reduce the duties on all articles and commodities manufactured and controlled or produced in the United States by a trust or trusts, 80 as to destroy such illegal combinations, and to reduce the rate of duty on any article or commodity manufac- tured inthe United States and sold in a foreign country more cheaply than in the United States. “Fourth—We oppose the adjourn ment of Congress until the measures mentioned above have been enacted into law.” The eaucus lasted only an hour and was devoted to a discussion of the terms of the resolution, which was drawn up by Representative Jackson, of Kansas, and presented by Representative Griggs, of Georgia, chairman of the Democratic Con- ional committee. A number of ies were made arraigning the majority in Congress and in support ofa strong Democratic declaration. _ Representative Richardson, of Ten- nessee, the Democratic tloor leader, Was among the speakers and at the close of his speech the resolutions were adopted unanimously, Boers Sang Britain's Hymn.

Hamilton, Bermuda, June 27.— Two Boer prisoners who were in the camp on Burts Island succeeded in escaping, but one of them has been captured. Some of the Boers on Darrell’s Island who refused to mus- ter for inspection were turned out by force. ‘Asa result of a subsequent row Commandant Milan was badly beaten by other prisoners on this island and was removed to the hos- pital to-day. Leave of the prisoners on both islands has been stopped and the Boers have beeu placed on prison fare.

Prive, 50° cents.—H. L. Tucker, Scien Emphasizes the Leading Issue. There is no cause for American re- gret in the fact that the leaders of the national Republican organiza- tion are so fully committed to the service of the trusts as to sternly for- bid Republican action toward a re- vision of the tariff. This stubborn allegiance to the monopoly combines serves merely to emphasize the issue of trusts and the tariff upon which the campaigns of this year and two years hence must be fought. Logically, also, it tends to increase the chances of Democrat- ic success in behalf of the people. There is now a certainty in the popular mind that the Republican party is absolutely owned by the Lincoln. Neb., June 24.—W. J.] DEWEY TELLS OF MANILA’S FALL. | akan City Had Surrendered When Spanish Fleet Was Sunk. 26.—Admir Dewey made a statement before the Washington, June to-day concerning the early opera- tions at Manila, when he was incom- Philippine waters. The admiral’s statement made an important addi- tion to the history of the surrender of the city of Manila. This consisted of a positive state- ment by the admiral to the effect that thecity had been surrendered to him at the time that the Spanish fleet was sunk and that when thecity did surrender it was in pursuance of a definite understanding himself and the Spanish governor- general, The admiral: was questioned by Senator Lodge. He said he had first heard from Aguinaldo and his friends about April 1, 1898, a month before between 410s would _rise,None-did-rise-andt trusts. There is an equal certainty that the power of the trusts must be broken if the people are to enjoy the rights to which they are entitled un- der the Constitution. Many of these rights have already been sacrificed in order that the trusts might possess greater special privileges. Many more will be sacrificed if the party of the trusts continues in control of the Government. A cardinal principle of American Democracy declares in favor of equal rights for all, special privileges for none. This principle controls the Democratic party in the fight against the trusts and the high tariff. It will also be the people’s slogan in the approaching campaigns. The Re- publican party itself is working out Republican destruction. The trusts, the tariff and the party of the trusts and tariff stand condemned by the people. A tariff for revenue only will relieve the people of the trust burden, To secure this relief, the Republican party must be voted down and out and the Democratic party placed in power.—Republic. came certain that there was to be war, “T then heard that there were a number of Filipinos who desired to accompany the fleet to Manila,” he continued, All of them were young and earnest, I did not attach much importance to them or to what they said. The day before we left Hong Kong I received a telegram from Consul-General Pratt, located at Singapore, saying that Aguinaldo was at Singapore and would join me at Hong Kong. I replied all right; tell him to come aboard, but I at- tached so little importance to the message that I sailed without Aguin- aldo and before he arrived. There were then many promises as to what the Filipinos would do, but I did not depend on them. Consul Williams as- sured that, upon our arrival and the firing of the tirst gun, 30,000 Filipi- frequently joked him on this point. The Panama Canal Bill Ready. Washington, June 28.—Theconfer- ence report on the isthmian canal was agreed to in both houses yester- day, and the act now goes to the President for approval. It isseldom that the defeated side in a contro- versy feel so happy as the advocates of the Nicaragua canal route.

When the naval bill gets into the senate it is quite probable the appropriation for submarine boats will be large increased, thus en- abling the navy department to go into a new departure in naval architecture on a scale which will.tend to put the navy ofthis country ahead of the sea force of all other nations, at least so far as the element of harbor défense is concerned, cireumstances proach the cover the lan use ¢ submarine He gave THE KAISER MAY COME. Thought That the Emperor of Ger- many Is Paving the Way for Trip to United States, Ts the kaiser paving the way for a personal and official visit to the United States? That is the query one hears on all sides, cables the Berlin correspond- ent of the New York Herald. It is undertsood the prospects of a jour- ney to the United States were dis- cussed during the kaiser'’s recent trip on board the Kronprinz Wilhelm to the North sea, It has always been one of his earnest wishes expressed in private conversation and to the members of the American emb at Berlin that he might some day has been passed by the Senate and accepted by the House, declaring for the Panama route with an alterna- tive proposition in favor of Nieara- gua route by the President. This position was emphasized by Mr. Hepburn, chairman of the House committee on interstate and foreign commerce, and author of the Nicara- gua bill, addressed the House yesterday in support of the conferees’ report accepting the Senate bill. Colonel Hepburn is one of the fighters of the House, and it isgener- ally believed would not have yielded to the Senate amendment did he not think that the Nicaragua ronte would be finally selected. He stated, in the address to the House, that he believ- ed that the Presideht would fail in his negotiations with Colombia for the title to the Panama route, and would finally be compelled, under the terms of the bill, to resort to the oth- er route. This opinion of Colonel Hepburn is shared by Senator Mor- gan, who championed the Hepburn billin the Senate. Senator Morgan insists that the new Panama Canal company of France will be unable to give a valid title to the Panama route, and he does not believe that the government of Colombia will be able to come to terms with the United States.

PHOTOGRAPHED ON HORSE. President Roosevelt Caught by the Camera in the Act of Jumping a Fence, President Roosevelt has had his picture taken 17 times in the attitude of going over a high fence astride of a horse. While out riding recently his horse took a fence in a manner to suggest the artistic qualities of a photograph, and Mr. Roosevelt en- gaged a local photographer to pro- ceed to the spot and arrange to take a series of pictures. This was accom- plished one day last week, with the result that no 1 than 17 success- ful proofs of as many different equestrian attitudes have been ob: tained. The president is highly pleased with the work of the camera, and he has given to a few close friends these pictures, accompanied by his autograph. The photographer who achieved this result has sold te a New York illustrated paper the privilege of reproducing the 17 pic- tures, for which the publishers pay $500, s: A Lucky Hospital, The Westminster hospital, facing the entrance to the abbey, claims to have the best site in London from which to view the corcnation proces- sion, and, as a stand to accommodate 2,000 people is to be erected, and as 25 guineas a seat has already been offered by some applicants, the hospital cof- About 40 per cent. of the men em- ployed in the Minnesota mines are Fin- landers, another 40 per cent.
