Senator Simmons Also Protests Against Cruelty to Native ‘WASHINGTON, April 28.—In the Senate to-day Simmons of North Carolina spoke in opposition to the Philippine. Govern- ment bill. He urged that the Philippines ought to be turned over to the-inhabitants of the islands; There was no reason, in his mind, why independencé should be aned to the Cubans and denied to the. ilipinos. He sald it evidently was the purpose of the Republican party to retain the Philippines permanent! but he did not believe the subject had been_settled finally by the American people. Person- ally, he 'had no doubt that the islands ought to be turned over to their inhabi tants, as he felt they were entirely capa- ble of establishing a proper governmient, althouTh they may not be capable of e tablishing and maintaining such a go ernment as ours. The Filipinos by hered- ity, he thought, were not fitted for our kind of government. Simmons referred to the order issued by Geperal Smith to make the island of Samar a “howling wilderness,” and to sltny all male inhabitants over ten years o age. - - ‘“No order recorded in all history,” he declared, “parallels that order except that of Herod the King. 2 8 “I feel” he continued, ‘“like calling upon the great, brave and humane man new in the White House to probe these thines to the bottom and at least to wake e R R mmons confessed to a feeling of alarm for his own section of the cmfntry-over a tponement of the 1 1n oba;.'n evidence from was the prospect of the admission to - the United B‘gtn of the cultus roduct: of the islands, for, with the M abor could be uced there, those products 1902. e Governor Gage a nd Tayor Snyder Will To-Night Extend Wel- come to the Visitors.

WASHINGTON, April 28.—The State Department has had some correspondence with the Government of Mexico regard- ing the case of ex-Councilman Kratz, who is a fugitive from justice from St. Louis, charged with bribery. The man, at the department’s instance, has been arrested and is locked up at Guadalajara, but as the offense with which he is charged is not one of the offenses named in the treaty as subject to extradition the de- gnnment has been trying to procure his elivery to the Missourl authorities as a matter of comity. Considerable obstacle has been encountered in the shape of a polite suggestion of the Mexic¢an authori- tles that they will do this, but only on the understanding that the United States Government will reciprocate in kind when occasion arises. This is an embarrassing condition, impossible of fulfillment, for no American court could deliver a fugitive from justice if his offense is not set out in the extradition treaty. It is thought an effort will be made to secure the pun- ishment of Kratz by Mexican courts If he_cannot be returned to Missouri. . LO , April 28.—Chief of Detec- tives Willlam Desmond and Detective Thomas. McGrath will leave to-night for the City of Mexico to bring back Charles Kratz, ex-City Councilman, indicted for hflbelx' and a fugitive from justic ho is under arrest at Guadalajara, fieflcn. 1t s believed that when the St, Loul: ficlals reach the Mexican capital all will l&lvau been arranged for the surrender of ratz.

Committee Is Appointed to Consider the New Com- bination. LONDON, April 28.—The Parliamentary | committee appointed by the Admiralty to | consider the question of subsidies as af- fected by the new Atlantic shipping com- bination and the best means of obtaining for the raval service auxillary steamers of greater speed and efficlency than the | ships now employed, will be presided over by the Earl of Camperdown, a former Lord of the Admiralty. The other mem- bers of the committee are Vice Admiral Fitzgerald, Professor Byles, Captain Saf- ford, R. N., and representatives of the Treasury and the Postoffice. The commit tee will report on the modifications neces- sary in existing contracts, and what al terations in the present rate of subsidy will be necessary to prevent vessels pass- ing to a foreign flag without permission of the Admiralty. In the House of Commons to-day the President of the Board of Trade, Gerald Balfour, replying to a question, said the board had no power to request the dis- closure of any agreement for the transfer of a British ship to a foreign owner, nor to require the White Star line or other lines which had entered into the Ameri- can combination to disclose the terms of their agreements with the American syn dicate or to produce any facts showing the status of the persons who, under the agreements, acquired a share in the con- trol or beneficial interest in the ships con- cerned. The effect of the shipping com- bination, he added, was engaging the ser | ous attention of the British Government. | Replying to questions on the same (op:u in the House of Commons to-day tha Secretary of the Admiralty, Arnold-Fos- ter, said the Admiralty was of the opinion that the services of merchant cruisers should be continued, if compatible with reasonable expenditures. Such subsidies would not.seriously affect the expenditure | on fast crulsers, whose services could not be performed by mercantile cruisers. Tha Government's present arrangements gave it the power of utilizing in war time a certain number of merchant steamers and gave it a lien on steamers now being constructed. FROTESTANT ALLIANCE MEETS WITH DEFEAT Fails in Its Attempt to Have the Jesuits Expelled From England. . LONDON, April 28.—The efforts of the Protestant Alllance to expel the Jesuits | from England, under the act of George 1V, have again failed.

The mag | trate declined to grant the summons holding that the act was obselete. On King's Bench division of h Court of Justice to-day the Lord e Fustice, Lord glverstone, held that the magistrate had the right to review the summonses and refused to issue a mandamus to compel the magistrate to do so.
