Finally, the President, through the Sec- ry of War, pronounces the follow! » the United States army: " o5 DJUTANT GENERAL'S OFFICE, HINGTON, July 4, 1902, been received from the ent R DEPARTMENT, July ¥ 1 the United Saten — 02 on this anniversary of na- ependence wishes to express to the en of the United States tion of the service they the country in the difficult un- which they have brought to a suc- nclusion during the past year.

They have transferred the | rent of Cuba to the Cuban people amid | universal expressions of friendship and good | will, and have left a record of ordered justice | and liberty, of ravid improvement in material and moral conditions and progress in the art of government which reflects great credit upon the people of the United States. BRAVE MANY DANGERS. The President thanks the officers and enlisted men of the army in the Philippines, both regu- lars and volunteers, for the courage and forti- tude, the indomitable spirit and loyal devotiog | with which they have put down and ended thl great insurrection which has raged throughout | the archipelago against the lawful sovereignty | | and just authority of the United States. The | task s pecullarly difficult apd trying. They were required at first to overcome organized re- sistance of superior numbers, well equipped | with modern arms of precision, intrenched in an | unknown country of mountain deflles, funlif‘s[ and swamps, apparently capable of intermi: ble defense. When this resistance had been | overcome they were required to crush out a | general system of guerrilla warfare conducted emong & people speaking unknown tongues, | from ‘whom it was almost impossible to obtain | the information necessary for successful pursuit | or_to guard against surprise and ambushes. | The enemies by whom they were surrounded were regardless of all obligations of good faith and of all the limitations which have imposed upon clvilized warfare. Bound themselves by the laws of war, our | of unscrupulous treachery and to contemplate | without reprizal the infiiction of barbarous cru. elties upon their comrades and friendly natives, They were instructed. while punishing armed resistance, to concillate the friendship of the peaceful, yet had to do with a population | among whom it was impossible to distinguish friend from foe, and who in countless instances used a false appearance of friendship for am- bush and assassination. They were obliged to deal with problems of communication and transportation in a country without roads and frequently made impassable by torrential rains. | They were weakened by tropical heat and trop- | ical disease. Widely scattered over a great | archipelago, extending a thousand miles from north to south, the gravest responsibilities, in- | volving the Iife or death of their commands, frequently devolved upon young and inexperi. enced officers beyond the reach of specific orders | 1ce er ‘all these adverse circumstances the of the Philippines has accomplished its task rapidly and completely. In more than | two usand combats, great and small, within thre rs, it has exhibited unvarying courage and resolution. Utilizing the lessons of the In- dian wars, it has relentlessly followed the guer- rilla bands to their fastnesses in mountain and jungle and crushed them. It has put an end to the vast system of intimidation and secret as- sassination by which decent natives were pre- vented from taking a genuine part in govern- ment under American authority. It has captured or forced to surrender sub- stantially all the leaders of the insurrection It has submitted to no discouragement and halted at no obstacle. Its officers have shown high qualities of command, and fits men have shown devotion and discipline. Its splendid, virHle energy has been mccompanied by mel(: control, patience and magnanimity. With sur- prisingly few individual excentions its course has been characterized by humanity and kind- nees to the prisoner and the non-combatant. With admirable good temper, sympathy and loyalty to American deals its commanding gen- erals have joined with the civilian agents of the Government in healing the wounds of war | i and assuring to the people of the Philippines ' { the blessings of peace and prosperity. Individ. | ual liberty. protection of personal rights, civil | order, public_instruction and religious freedom | have followed its footsteps. It has added honor | to the flag which it defended and has justified | increased confidence in the future of the Amer- jcan people, Whose soldiers do not shrink from Jabor or death, yet love liberty and peace. R The President feels that he expresses the | sentiments of all the loyal people of the United | States in doing honor to the whole army which | has joined in the performance and shares in the credit of these honorable services, This general order will be read aloud at parade in every military post en the Fourth of July, 1902, or on the first day after it shall have been recefved. soldiers were called upon to meet every device | { ELIHU ROOT, Secretary of War.

Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN_JOSE, July 3.—The Police and Fire Commission and the Board of Education resigned to-day in a body and at the | meeting of the Council this evening City Clerk J. W. Cook tendered his resigna- tion, with a demand that it be acted on at once. Just the meaning of this move is but partially clear. The Board of Edu- cation and the Police and Fire Commis- sion by their acts have made themselves subject to removal, but just where the “nigger in the woodpile” lies in the resig- nation of City Clerk Cook is unfathom- able. The general impression is that the Mackenzieites will attempt to hold on to the offices when Mayor-elect Worswick and the rest of the Citizens’ ticket present themselves for office next Monday. It is believed the ground advanced will be that the election was illegal because of a mis- take in the charter calling for the election of Councilmen. The following appointments were made to-day by Mayor Martin to fill vacancies caused by resignation and expiration of terms: City Beard of Education—E. W. Maynard, H. E. Jones, Thomas A, W hLeeler, J. J. Ryan, Charles A. Kenyon. Police and Fire Commission—Alexander Hart, James Kelly, Manuel Perry, Dr. E. M. Carmichael, Joseph McKiernan. Board of Health—Dr. Robert Caldwell, Dr. George W. Seifert. Park Commission—Harry Bercovich. Library Commission—Daniel McGinley, Dr. D. E. Nash. When the Council convened this even- ing City Clerk Cook tendered his resigna- tion. After an executive session it was adopted. Elmer E. Cottle, an avowed Mackenzieite, who has been acting Deputy City Treasurer, was at once appointed to fill the place. ' Cottle at once appointed the old deputies in the office, and they were confirmed. Miss Irene Frost was chosen police ma- tron. The Council then adjourned until Monday morning, when the new officers take their seats. Late to-night it isreported that the Mac- kenzie men will not surrender the of- fices they hold without a legal fight. A fund is said to have been raised for the purpose. ‘At the last city election the City Attorney rendered an opinion in re- gard to the closing of registration, but the District Attorney negatived this and registration was kept open several weeks longer. It is believed this will be the point raised. * POLICE TO PRESERVE ORDER. To-Day’s Parade. Chief Wittman issued an order yester- day to company commanders regarding the parade this morning, the open-air concerts in the afterncon and the fire- works In the evening. Captain Birdsall will have charge of the police in the parade, which will consist of Lieutenant Gleeson, Sergeant Donovan and twenty-five patrolmen from Company A; Lieutenant Duke, Sergeant Shea and twenty-five patrolmen from Company B; Lieutenant Price, Sergeant Wolf and twenty-five patrolmen from Company D; Lieutenant Kelly, Sergeant Bush and twenty-five men from Company E, and Sergeant Coogan and eighteen mounted officers, all of whom will report to Cap- tain Birdsall, uniformed and equipped for parade with batons and tassels, at Battery and Market streets, at 9:30 a. m.
