WASHINGTON, Jan 5.—Senators Proc- tor and Burrows of the Senate Military Committee had a long conference with Secretary Root at the War Department in regard to the military situation in the| Philippines with special application to the bill providing for an increase fcr the res- ular army under consideration in the Sen- ate. Just before the conference the Sec- retary talked with a number of newspaper men. In the course of the conversation he said there was no [oundation for the statement published lu some newspapers that he had predicted tuat the troubles in the Phlhpglnes would end with th re-election of President McKinley. He ex- plained that he had aiways avoided tha making of predictions in any matter and he certainly had never made the predic- tion in question about ihe speedy termina- tion of the Philippine troubles. The near- est he had ever come to doing 50 was in his last annual report to the President, when he summed up the military require- mente in the Philippines as demanding 60,000 men for the :mmediate though this number might be progressive- ly decreased by the restoration of order. the creation of a native police and the use of pative troops in place of Ameri- cans. We should acquire permanently an arm; of about 60,000 American troops, he said. and during present conditions in Cuba and the Philippines about the present number, 100,000 would be required. In answer to a direct question Secretary Root sald that final arrangements for the return of the volunteers from the Philippines would not be made until Congress had indicated its intention with regard o their replacement by fresh troops. One thing settled, however, was, he said, that the volunteers brought back to the | United States would be mustered out at | points as near thelr places of enlistment as possible and not at San Francisco, as was originally intended. In explanation of this plan of action le said it was based on the experience gaincd in the muster out of the volunteers at the close of the ish war, when it was found that the vol- unteers brought home from the Philip- pines spent all their money in places of amusement in San Francisco and were financially unable to continue the jour- ney to tiielr homes. I the Secreotar; stands by his announced programme it said that it will complctely upset the ten- tative arrangements already made by the adjutant generals and the quartermas- ter's department, which contemplate the muster out of all the volunteers at San Francisco and their transportation to their homes as individuals at reduced rail- road rates. The plans reached a point Where the tranmsportation companies had prepared a schedule of rates between San Frlncuco and all points in the United States. Will Attend Barber’s Funeral.

SENATE MENDS - THE ARMY BILL | Minor Changes Are Agreed Upon With Little Debate. e WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.—While the Sen- ate was in session for more than three hours to-day, little in the way of im- portant legislation was accomplished. The committee amendments to the army reor- ganizatior. bil! ‘o which no objection had been raised were agreed to, but none of the contested amendments were consid- ered. Pettigrew of South Dakota to prevent the consideration of matters that would ad- vance the business of the Senate. A few unobjected measures were taken from the | calendar and passed. When the Senate convened the bill ex- | tending the mining laws to saline lands | was passed. | The Senate then proceeded to the con- ‘ sideration of the army reorganization bill. Proctor of Vermont, for the Military Com- mittee, offered as an amendment to sec- tion 22 the provision introduced by self yesterday concerning vacancies in the i him- ‘ position of chief of staff. The amendment | was adopted. When the section of the bill was reached providing for the appointment of volunteer officers to be officers in the reg- | ular army an extended discussion ensued. Money declared there were many officers in the volunteer army who were as clear- | ly entitled, gentlemen and officers, to | commissions in the regular army as ca- dets who, by hazing and by their testi- mony before investigating committees, | are to-day disgracing the whole country | at West Point. | The committee amendment providing that volunteer officers might be appointe | to second lieutenancies was disagreed to, thus restoring the House provision that volunteer officers may be appointed to the grade of first lieutenant. Commenting on this part of the bill, Danlel of Virginia declared that he wholiy disagreed with the committee which had drawn the bill. As to the proposition for the appointment of volunteer officers to the regular army, Daniel sald: ooks like a skillful plece of eng neering by a regular army officer to kee in the army many of the brightest an best military lDIrl!rl‘ zf th% |¢l:‘ou‘r;t‘r1y.n'rml most prosci ve n e B eore of this Country that has ever been presented.” Daniel declared sarcastically that the bill constituted a beautiful welcome to the volunteers returning from the Philippines, providing as it did that no volunteer of- fcer could look forward to any better ‘ade than that of the first lieutenancy n the regular nrmi" nlflfleyfig:x"d rom thaa Col:zmlttve,:“on ilit: rs an amendment pro That the Prosident shall have the authors ity to fix th arts of the army ration. It was adopted. Spooner, :46 p. m., moved that the SBenate return to unfinished business.

Whether these contributions have taken the form of money or clothing or grain they have sprung from the noblest of human sentiments, viz.: The feeling for suf- fering manhood and the recognition of a com- mon ald between the two great branches of the English speaking race, and they have exer- clsed a positive and material influence in the mitigation of the greatest calamity with which India has been afflicted for many years.
