Iegarding the Philippines Senator Ghandler said to-day that he was not willing to commit himself at this time to the permanent annexation of the islands. He believed, however, that they should never be returned to the bloody rule of Spain. *“I believe,” said he, “that they should be liberated like Cuba and aided to form, if pos- sible, a free self-governing state, protected by the United States in consideration of the adoption of a commercial treaty by which there should be free trade between the islands and the United States. “We will not become imperialists by controuing the destinles of the Philippines.

In | speaking of the work Dr. Thoburn said: 1 Ne cannot study Christianity prop- erly unless we study the setting to | Christianity, and it will be this early | Christian environment that the rabbi will attempt to give. Christ came from | and lived among the Jews, and in the | early centurtes the entire setting and urroundings of Christianity—the forms of worship, the people of the time, the | of the Christian —all were Jewish.

Rabbi Voorsanger is very learned upon this subject-and the course, while valu- able, will be valuable only as history.” | -Dr. Voorsanger is expected to have a synopsis of his course ready within a few weeks.

The case comes to the Supreme Court on appeal from the Court of | Claims, which refused the petition for a rebate on the ground that the grant failed when the Secretary of the Treas- ury did not prescribe the regulations | which were made necessary by law. The argument was begun for Dunlap | by George A. Wing, who contended that | the objection raised by the court below was without force and did not relieve | the Government from the obligation to I pay the rebate. He argued that the pro- { fessed object of the Wilson-Gorman law | was the reduction of taxation, whereas | the tax on spirits had been increased | | from 90 cents to $1 10, contrary to the | | spirit of the law as a whole. This tax amounted to 9 per cent and was made so enormous, as all know, because of the use of spirits as a beverage, and while this might be legitimate the same | reason could not be supposed to have | | been good in the use of alcohol in the | arts and industries which it was our | policy to foster and not discourage. | Evidently, he argued, the intention of { Congress was to relieve our manufac- | turers from the tax in order to place | them on an equal footing with foreign | manufacturers who had free alcohol. Moreover a drawback is allowed on im- ported alcohol used in the manufacture of articies to be exported. Hence the | | present practice was a discrimination against American alcohol. He held that the fact that the requirements of treasury regulations should be coupled with the allowance was more in the | nature of a direction to the Secretary | than a condition under which the re | bate should be allowed. | Concluding, Mr. Wing declined to con- | the | cede the position of the Government would be equivalent to leaving the en- forcement of any legislative enactment to the discretion of the executive, which | he claimed was an encroachment dan- gerous to the best interests of the citi- zen and one not to be encouraged for a moment by the judiciary. Special Attorney Binney contended | on behalf of the Government that the | people of this country were sufficiently protected against encroachment by the | executive officials and that there was | no danger from that score. He argued | the .determination of the question | turned on the one point as to whether | the grant to the manufacturer was con- | ditional, holding that it was made upon | the condition that the rebate should be made only after the Secretary had | made his regulations. The Secretary | had failed to make these regulations | because without the power to execute | the law it would be unavailing, hence | the untenable character of the claims | of the appellants. The Secretary had not put himself above the law, but he had found himseif unable to protect the United States in the execution of the statute. He contended the court could not take cognizance of the manufact- urers’ contention, as it could not per- form executive acts or sustain the rights of persons dependent upon ex- ecutive action which had not been per- formed. The exercise of a discretion by the executive was no usurpation, but an act for the protection of the interests of the Government and this was not the | only instance in which such discretion | had been exercised. Indeed, the action of Congress in re- pealing the law made it manifest that Congress had partially at least antici- pated such course as the treasury had pursued. The time for the presentation of the case was continued for two hours and Attorney General Griggs and Hon. J. H. Choate will be heard to-morrow, the Attorney General for the Government and Mr. Choate for the appellants. There is much interest manifested In the case, especially among the manu- facturers of proprietary medicines. It is said to involve an aggregate of $4,000,000. % BERING ISSUE NOT DECIDED. Anglo-American Commission Far From a Final Settlement. WASHINGTON. Nov. 20. — The Anglo- American Commission had expected to resume the consideration of the reci- procity _dlscussion to-day, but as the Bering Sea question had not been dis- posed of the consideration of that branch of work was continued. While consid-' erable progress had been made a final adjournment upon the seallni question | is not yet assured. Besides the present | valuation of the Canadian ing fleet, it is said the rellnquishment of the rights of sealing is another factor which the Canadians consider quite as import- ant as the value of the present fleet, 1 only, Spain having the right to name the prices she wants for her territory and to reject or accept the American offers. The Sraniards no less than the Americans now are anxious to conclude the business which brought them here. As the result of the work of Mr. Moore and Senor Ojeda the draft of the articles embodying the protocol agree- ments was completed this evening. It will be presented to the two commis- slons in the morning at their separate sessions, when it will receive final con- sideration. There will be little delay on these articles. Mr. Moore will also submit to-mor- row to the United States Commissioners the subjects to be presented to the Spaniards for negotiation. These, for convenience and greater dispatch, are being drafted into the form of articles, The release of the insurgent prisoners held by Spain will go into the protocol agreements, it having been already agreed that Spain is to release them upon the United States undertaking to secure the release of the Spanlish pris- oners in the hands of Aguinaldo. This question is so intimately related to the peace treaty that it has been removed from the subjects that are matters of negotiation, and has been embodied in the articles containing the protocol agreements. e S FILIPINOS A CAUSE OF APPREHENSION WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.—The Gov- ernment has been officially advised of the successful termination of the Paris peace negotiations with Spain. A cable- gram to. this effect, which had been re- ceived from Chairman Day, was read at to-day’s Cabinet meeting by the Secre- ary of State. By the terms of the treaty, which will be signed during the present week, Spain surrenders to the United States her sovereignty in the Philippine Islands and Guam Island, one of the Ladrone group. In lieu of all claims to indemnity the United States will pay Spain the sum of $20,000,000 in gold or its equivalent. Before returning to the United States our Paris Commissioners will secure from the Spanish representatives, if possible, a proposition for the sale to the” United States of an island in the Caroline group, some distance east and south of Luzon, for a cable station. Should Spain, however, decline to sell the island for a reasonable sum, the matter will be dropped, for the present at least. The possible cession of this island is not involved in the pending treaty, and no pressure will be brought to bear to induce Spain to part with it. The apprehension which manifested itself some time ago over the attitude of Aguinaldo and thé Philippine insur- gents has not entirely disappeared, though the administration believes they will accept the situation without a confiict with the United States. The matter was discussed at the meeting to-day and some of the views expressed indicated a possibility that the insur- gents may yet have to be dealt with. e PRESS OF PARIS IS MUCH DISGRUNTLED PARIS, Nov. 29.—Commenting on the peace negotiations the Petit Bleu says: “The Monroe doctrine is now out of date. The American republic, conquer- ing and colonizing, no longer has the right to clcse to Europe the new con- tinent, since she herself has stepped out of it.” The Temps says: “The transatlantic democracy has become an imperialist, and a republic founded on federalism and autonomy has become a conquer- ing one. From an international point of view this means a repudiation of the Mcnroe doctrine and the entrance of America into the conflicts and intrigues of the great powers, and her harshness to Spain is the cause of much anxiety as to her relations with other powers.” CONFIDENT THE TREATY WILL BE RATIFIED NEW YORK, Nov. 29.—The Washing- ton correspondent of the Herald tele- graphs: Prompt ratification of the American-Spanish treaty of peace is expected by the administration. From conversations the President has had with the Senators who have called upon him during the last few days he expects that there will be little oppo- sition to the treaty, though he has found a diversity of opinion as to the future government and disposition of the Phflipp{nes Spectal Dispatch to The Call.

The petition was argued this g mtention was that the section of the code under which the election was called was_unconstitutional, and that a Justice of the Peace could be elected only at a general election. The section referred to provides for the election at a special election of all officers, in case of no choice, | except a Governor and Lieutenant Gov- ernor, but It is a well-known fact that a Superior Judge cannot be elected except at a general election and can be appointed v to fill a vacancy. e the petitioner clted e attorney for numerous authorities upon this point.
