THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, DECEMBER 21 1902, MUST WAR TO KEEP TRADE America, 8ays General Young, Will Need Army to Proteot Business. URGES STRONG FORCES IN PHILIPPINES Clatms Orfental Commerce Will Even- Lead Demand Presence of Strong Military Body, tually to Armed Strife and CLEVELAND, 0., Dee. 20.—The fifty- fourth annual dinmer of the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce held tonight was at- tended by several distinguished visitors. The guests of honor were Governor Nash, Adjutant General Corbin, General S. M. B Young, General A. R. Chaffee, Joseph G Milburn of Buffalo and Senator Hanna. These ocoupled the platform table at which also sat the mayor, Tom L. Johnson, Major Garroteon and others. The first speaker was Governor Nash, who referred to the growth of Ohio, and espectally the city of Cleveland. When Ohlo joined the unfon, he sald, there were but three cities, Marietta, Chil- fcothe' and Cincinnati, The population then was 45,000, After fifty years the census showed nineteen cities with more than 5,000, The next speaker was General Corbin, who spoke to the toast, “The Army and Its Needs." He sald, in part: Wo have much that is satisfactory. Our officers and men are of the best—sober, brave and intelligent. We are fortunate in having a permanent military establishment of volunteers. What is known as the reg- ular army {8 In_the highest eense a volun- teer army, every officer and man taking service of ‘hls own motion. But perfection of organization is demanded—a harmonious and intelligent method of co-ordination and direction. r a_century we have nursed tho hope that radical defects would adjust themselves. - During the past century we have had many statutes alming to promote the eficlency of the army, and enacted with good Intent. But they have as a rule Tl ited to aome particular department and not always with (ntelligent relation to what s gore hefore. ‘'hat these unhappy conditions obtain is largely due to the fact that no one has heretofore offered a satisfactory solution Becretary ROOt NOW Dresents ome, recom- mending that a board of military experts #hall he created, at the head of which there shall be an officer of highest rank, who_shall be the chief military officer of the War department, and to be known as the chief of stafr Mr. Root's plan Is not the German or French plan, or that existing in any for- elgn army.

It should be accepted in the spirit it is of- fered, and thero {s no question that it will be, 1f the intelligent consideration of the country s given to it. Commerce Leads Army. Major General Young spoke of “The Army and Commerce,” saying in part: A natlon cannot be great and enjoy pros perity except for a limited time without commerce and an efficient military force. Each s dependent upon the other, and as one prospers so will the other, or eventually the nation to whom they pertain will cease to exist. This is eepecially true of our own republic. 1 use the term “military force” in its broad sense, Including the army and navy and all that Is required to make them efMcipnt It the military force s Inadequate to in- spire a fecling of confidence among com- mercial men that their interests will be protected, the commerce will not increase and that ‘'which may have been established will disappear. People may differ In thelr views as to the advisabllity of either purchasing or holding the Phillppine islands, but no reasonable person can doubt that the predominating reason for buying them was one of hu- manity and a desire to free them from the yoke they'were bearing, just as we did in Cubal T believe that a large majority of the Filipino people who are capable of understanding the eltuation rejolce that we purchased the islands. To obtain the trade of China we Wil have g long and hard struggle with the na- tions of | Hurope. We have obtained a strong polnt o advantage by getting the goodwlll of the Chinese people by our wise and humane diplomacy, but the advantage that overshadows all others is the posses- sion of the Philippines. The greatest value lles fn their strategic position, both from a military and commercial standpolnt, which 1s favorable to gaining and keeping the con- trol of the commerce of Asia. Tha time s coming when the Philippines wiil be the gateway through which will pass the goods of our great manufacturing establishments on thelr way to the Orlent. But however advantageous the posscssion of the Philip- pines may be from a commercial point of view they will be a source of natlonal weakness unless put in a proper state defence and protected by a sufficlently larg aimy and nayy. Quallty and price go a long way toward fixing the bounds of commerce, but there ©an be no permanency to a great commerce for which different nations are competing that Is not backed up by & large and ade- quate military force. This is especlally true of Orlenial commerce. If we wish to gain the supremacy in commerce in the east we must maintain such a military force (army and navy) In the Philippine islands that it can act instantly and ef- fectually at any point in the Orfent, and that fact must be well known and under- stood by all Orlental peoples. The larger and more efficient the force, and the more widely its strength and efficlency are known, the longer will the Inevitable con- filct of arms be delayed. No one can fore- tell when it will come, nor what will be the pretended or real cause, but the time will come when we will have to fizht to main- tain the supremacy of our commerce, HEAVY DAMAGES AWARDED Massachusetts Man Gets Verdiet of $37,000 Agalust Rallroad Com- pany for Injuries, BROCTON, Mass., Dec. 20.—A jury in the superfor court has awarded Frank J.

HUMBERTS NOW PRISONERS Spanish Police Oapture the Most Gigantio Bwindlers of a Generation, MAY POSSIBLY UNCOVER BIG SCANDAL Threaten to Get en with Parls When Authoritles Ar- rest Them. Certain Unnamed Persons in Police (Copyright, 1902, by 20, Press Publishing Co.) PARIS, Dec. (New York World Ca- blegram—Special Telegram.)—The Spanish police are entitled to all the credit of the arrest of the Humberts and to the whole of the $5,000 reward offered by the French government. The opinfon prevails in best informed quarters here that the French authorities knew the Humberts' hiding place, but did not wish to arrest them lest documents they undoubtedly possessed re- veal scandals like those of the Panama which shook the republic to its foun- fons So many false alarms have been sprung upon the French public concerning the | Humberts that when the news that they had been arrested in Madrid reached Paris this afternoon people smiled incredulously saying, “We've heard that story before. When the first Intelligence arrived at the Palaise de Justice (central courthouse) there was a great commotion. “Is it true?’ was the question on every lip. Grave judges were almost as much ex- cited as fledgling barristers. A noteworthy colncidence is the return to Paris yester- day of ex-Premler Waldeck Rousseau. When he was leaving Rome for France he Is reported to have sald: “I am eager to return to Paris, for I am already one day late.” He was the only man in France who saw through the Humberts before they fled and he did not hesitate to pronounce their “heritage” us the biggest swindle of the century. He knows more about the Hum- bert affair than any other living man, and it may be taken for granted that his sud- den eppearance in Parls on the evening of | the arrest of the famous swindlers was something more than a mere coincidence. Get Entire Family, MADRID, Dec. 20.—Madam Humbert and other members of the Humbert family and Madam d'Aurignac, the sister-in-law of Madam Humbert, who became notorfous in connection with the great safe frauds In Paris, have been arrested at a hotel here. They had been in Madrid since May 9. Some time yesterday d’Aurignac was seen to enter the building, and the house was surrounded. After some difficulty the police were admitted and arrested the long sought for defaulters. The prisoners protested that they were victims of infamous pro- ceedings. They threatened to get even with certain persons in France and sald they bad come to Madrid direct from Paris. Mile. Eva became hysterical and Mme. Humbert clasped Marie d'Aurignac and her daughter In he arms, pleading with the police ““for the love of God not to separate | me from my daughter.” The police suspect the Humberts of hav- ing disposed of important papers in the lavatories while delaying the entry of the officers. The family tried to escape by the windows, but falled, as the house was sur- rounded, The prisoners maintain they are fnno- cent, declare they themselves have been victimized, and say they desire to return to France and defend themselves agalnst the charges. SOCIAL CHAT OF CHRISTMAS Children of the Amerfcan Set to Have Gorgeous Christmas Tree at Mrs. Chaunceys'. (Copyright, 1%2, by Press Publishing Co.) LONDON, Dec. 20.—(New York World Cablegram—Speclal Telegram.)—An Ameri- can children’s Christmas party was given Thursday by Mrs. Chaunceys, assisted by her sister, Lady Newborough, It was at Mrs. Chaunceys' house in Mayfair and for the little friends of Mrs. Chaunceys’ daugh- ter, Alice. The ball room was a mass of flowers all frosted over. In the center stood a Christmas tree of gigantic size, laden | with all sorts of Parisian toys of the most | expensive description. Perched on the top most branch was Polichinelle in white satin. | The hostess adorned this colossal tree with | her own hands. The distribution of its tempting fruit also was an arduous task. The two sisters looked singularly alike as they stood together removing the treas- ures for the crowd of little people bidden to the feast. The particular feature of entertainment was a play given by two wonderfully clever French girls of 8 and 9 years, respectively. Mrs. Ronalds recently brought them out at one of her Sunday musicales. They maks up as Bernhardt and Rejane, whose differ- ent styles of acting they mimie to perfec- tion. 1 The little guests included the children of | the marchioness of Dufferin, the countess of Essex, the countess of Craven, Lady Naylor Leyland, Lady Algernon Gordea Lennox and numerous others. Miss Gladys Deacon, having ended her visit with Lord and Lady Clifford of Chud- lelgh at Claridges, went to Paris, where her mother and sisters are living on Rue Goujon, but 1s coming back to England for Christmas to spend the holidays with Prin- cess Henry of Pless at the house of the latter's parents, Newlands Mamor, where a blg shooting party will assemble for the sporting beginning on Christmas evening. There will be private theatricals in which Miss Deacon will take thé leading part Sho is a fervent Catholic and a great fa- vorite among the old Cathollc families here, the most exclusive in the country, and al- ways exceedingly slow to admit & newcomer The Cliffords of Chudleigh are one of the oldest and proudest familles, dating back The pretty American girl is greatly in- teresteq in an effort to raise tunds for the Catholic poor, but is somewhat puzzled | about how to do so.

LONDON, Dec. 20.—(New York World Cablegram—pecial Telegram.)—The duke of Marlborough recently asked King Ed- ward to change the name of the royal palace now called Mariborough house, so that the palace which the duke is buflding for | himself on Curzon street may have that name. But after consulting with the prince | of Wales and with court officials, the king decided that it might cause great con- | tuston 1t the name was changed. So the duke has decided to call his new mansion | Blandford house, after his second title. It might far more fitly be called Vanderbilt house, although the duke never loses an opportunity of denying emphatically that it is fn whole or In part a gift from hi father-in-law. Like most building opera. tlons, it 1s sald to be costing the duke more than double the original estimate and is making a far heavier drain on his re- sources than he ever contemplated.

A great commotion followed, and Hoffman, pale as death, could play no more. His mad votary was led away by force and placed in an asylum.* f METRIC SYSTEM IS IN FAVOR Growing Sentiment for the Adoption of Decimal Plan of Welghts and Measures, (Copyright, 1802, by Press Publishing Co.) PARIS, Dec, 20.—(New York World Ca- blegram—Special Telegram.)—The action of the American Chamber of Commerce in Paris in recommendisg the adoption of the metric system, has led to an agitation among the Anglo-Saxon business element in favor of the change. It s belleved here that England is only walting on the United States government to eignify an intention of adopting the metric system to join In the movement. The only opposition en- countered is among those engineers or manufacturers whose establishments are run on conservative principles and whom the introducing of the metric system would compel to overhaul their measure and ma- | chines, entailing considerable labor and ex- pense. DOES HIS OWN ADVERTISING Cheiro, the Palmist and Vineyardist, Buys Newspaper for that Purpose. (Copyright, 132, by Press Publishing Co.) PARIS, Dec. 20.—(New York World Ca- blegram—Specfal Telegram.)—Chelro, the palmist, has become a newspaper proprie- tor. He bought a vineyard some time ago, but he is better at palmistry than at wine selling and lost a lot of money in cham- pague. Now he hopes to get some of it back saving the cost of advertising, and has bought the American Register, which was made famous by the late Dr. Evans when it was the only English paper in the French capital. When Dr. Evans dled the paper was sold by public auction for $600 and eince then has had a checkered ex- tetence. Now Cheiro has taken it chiefly to crack up his champagne.

Fe Limit Powers to BERLIN, Dec. 20.—The soclalist mem- bers of the Reichstag held conferences daily this week over the position in which the | party is placed by the new rules. Since the creation of Parllament they could say | anything in the house, as all uttcrances were privileged and the lese majeste and | sedition paragraphs of the penal code were not applicable to them. While those priv- fleges are not more impaired, the oppor- tunity to take advantage of them under the new rules is limited. At the pleasure of the majority it is possible to introduce and pass any measure in two days, conse- quently soclalist leaders consider the power of their party as an opposition party is weakened, but they have not vet declded on a policy to follow.
