Hovr the i:iu-t-tc! Promotion I Viruptl in Ar inj- Circle. WASHINGTON. March CO.-Tho question as to how General Funston will b- reworded for his services in capturing the head and front of the Philippine Insurrection continues to be a topic of discussion in all official circles. In view of General MacArthur's specific recommendation, indorsed by General Wheaton, that General Funston be appointed a brigadier general in the regular army, there seems to be no doubt ;n well-Informed quarters that the iresiuent will meet promptly the popular üerr.inü in this matter and appoint General a unston to one of the existing vacancies in tne list of brigamer generals. TV only objection made to stich action that It would shut out all olficers of the army below the grade of brigadier general from possible appointment to the head of the i.rmy. It is Mated that the condition of I'ffalrs would be lue t. the possibility that General Funston might have command of tae army until after all his present military assc-datts had retired for age. Although such a contingency is possible It Is extremely Improbable. If appointed he would be the youngest general otlieer in tne array, and if promotions were made by seniority eventually would become the lieutenant general and hold that oltice lor many years. Hut, under the law, the President sckctf all the general olllcers and Is not even conrtnt d to the army In making them. Although a brigadier general naturally would be st lectcd for promotion to a vacancy in the list of major generals, the President. If he chose, might appoint a civilian or an otlieer of the army regardless of his rank. The same wide range o selection also applies to the lieutenant gener?.lcy, notwithstanding the popular Impression that the senior major general legally is entitled1 to the promotion. The President's . wide discretion In such appointments was Illustrated recently irt the cases of Generals f'haffee. Wood and Pell, all of whom wre Jumped over many of their seniors In the army. There was nothing out of the ordinary In the appointment of General Miles to the command of the army. If the President had so preferred he might have placed WEATHER FORECAST.

It appears, therefore, that General Funston's appointment as a brigadier general would not necessarily m? in his enforced promotion to the head of the army In consequence of the retlrenunt of ofllcers now his superior in rank. Whether his advancement would Le slow or rapid would depend altogether on the wishes of the chief executive. The War Department has sent to General MacArthur. commanding the military forc s in the Philippines, an acknowledgement of the hitter's message regarding the capture cf Agulnaldo by General Funston. The officials decline to rnakj the text of the dispatch public. The War Department has under cons!d ration the giving to General Funston as a recognition of his gallant act of a medal of honor.

Pettlgrew Talk n I nii.iL NIIW YORK. March 21. I'x-Senator R. F. Pettigrew, cf South Dakota, said in an interview respecting Aguinaido s capture: "I don't know that the capture of Aguinaido will terminate the war in the Philippines. I am not snifllciently acquainted with the Malay race to rperyk of their tenacity. The capture of George Washington would not have ended the Amtriean revolution. I consider our treatment of the Filipinos constitutes one of the blackest pages in American history. Aguinaido was one of our allies and hi-H people should have been given their independence when tho Americans took possession of the i-lands. General Funston's act was a brave and a risky one, and 1 believe it was a bona title undertaking, for the success of which Funston should be well rewarded." CAUSE OF CANCER. Prof. II. It.

"Cancer Is caused by an animal parasite which we have identified and located In the Ntw York State cancer laboratory," said Prof. II. R.

In reference to the above Senor Lopez has issued the following statement: "I believe it is the wish of the American people to know the truth about many things connected with this war, as well as to obtain an authoritative statement of the attitude of the Filipinos, towards American sovereignty. I do not know of two men better fitted to give such information than Aguinaido and Mabini. Almost all the statements that have hitherto been made are from American sources. It would, therefore, only be fair that two representative Filipinos should be allowed to give their opinions about the Americans and to speak in behalf of their fellow-countrymen. The bringing of Aguinaido and Mabint to America can do no injury to truth and Justice, and 1 assume that both desire to know the truth and to do justice to us." iioii:rrL roit good nnsii;rs. Col. Jevett, at Xpw Albany. I)Ueue the Capture of Aguinaido. LOUISVILLE. Ky March 2a. Colonel Jewett, of New Albany, Ind., who served with the f.rst American occupation in the Philippines as judge advocate of the Eighth Army Corps, and was intimately acquainted with Aguinaido, said to-day: "Aguinaldo's hohl upon the Filipino people was largely a matter of superstition. The ignorant ones believed him to be Anting-Anting.' which is their way of describing" one who beats a charmed life, liefore he left Cavlte in July. lS'.is, it was currently reported and believed among these people that h underwent the ordeal of having a volley of ride balls fired at his breast at cltf.se range and wits unharmed. His mother, a pure Filipino woman, was of dark brown col..r. with straight black hair, and absolutely devoted to and proud of her son. She was very courteous to strangers, and I was several tjmcs tinder obligations to her fr a cigar out of her own lox and a light from the burning end of her own cigar. "My own notion is that Aguinaido Is glad to bo captured. The Filipinos thoroughly understand the humane treatment which our people accord to even the worst criminals, ami I Imagine that In ids captivity Aguinaido will become reconciled to American domination and even hope that he may be of great service to his own people in ticonclling them to tho government that cannot fail to bo advantageous to them. All the stories about Aguinaido going to and from Manila during the American occupation are a mistake. He was never in Manila from the time he was exiled by the Spaniards In 1S'.7 until Funston brought him in this week." 'AX ACT OP TRCACIIEUY.' A London Saturday Scold Who Writes Like an Ant l-Iuincrlnllnt. LONDON, March 29 The Saturday ReView will say to-morrow: "The news of the capture of Aguinaido may be welcome as meaning the end of a war which is still wasting life and ruining prosperity In the Philippines, but for Aguinaido himself, whose capture was effected by a gross act or treachery, there must be general sympathy. He gave the Americans Invaluable assistance in the capture of Manila and in the previous maneuvers. He proved a faithful ally until, partly owing to a change of policy in Washington and partly to a want of tae. among the American generals, war suddenly broke out between the allies. De Wet Is probably the finer general, but Aguinaido is the liner chiracter. Considering his antecedents, Aguinaido has proven himself singularly humane. He has displayed, moreover, a genius for Inspiring scattered trlbts with his own enthusiasm for the freedom which was promised him." "Xot i:mimo a j u i x a l n o.

Senator Spoouer'n Views. MADISON. Wis., March 2:.-Senator Spooner said to-night: "The capture of Aguinaido is of thl utmost consequence and will bring about the tarly termination of the winde organized opposition to the authority of the United States. He will, of course, be treated kindly and will have an opportunity for the lirst time to learn the difference between our methods and those of Spain. I shall not le at all surprised if v Ithin a few days he issues a proclamation to the insurgents advlslr.g them to surrender and advising Filipinos generally to submit to the sovereignty of the United States." Young; Praises Fnnstoii. SAN FRANCISCO, March 2. Maj. Gen. S. It. M. Young, who arrived from Manila to-day on the transport Logan, said: "General Funston's exploit was one of remarkable bravery, and he Is deserving of the highest recognition at the hands of our government. This talk about 'West Point lnduence is all bosh. If any such statements have been made that graduates of West Point or m n who have risen from the ranks will oppose Funston's advancement it has come from the lips of dlappelntd officers.

MAJORITY AGAINST IT

COMMITTEE OX RELATIONS OPPOSED TO PLATT AMENDMENT. lladieal. Action of Cubans Augmented by Gunlherto (inmrr The Contention Divided. HAVANA, March 20. Senor Villuenda, of the committee on relations of the Cuban constitutional convention, to-day signed the report of Senor Gualberto Gomez, thus placing a majority of the committee in opposition to the principal features of the Plait amendment. Neither the Radicals nor the Conservatives seem anxious to put the question to an immediate vote. The plan to send a delegation to Washington tir.-t is being favorably considered. Little public interest is manifested in the outcome. The convention itself is divided into warring political factions, local politics being the chief subject of discussion. General Sanguilly has sent in h'.s resignation, alleging that he could not abide by the vote of the Havana Republicans rejecting the amendment, it is doubtful if the convention would accept the amendment, as the Republican delegates lrom Santiago and Santa Clara, thougn they have been repudiated by their party for voting against the amendment, still hol-1 their seats. Radically opposite views are held by different groups ot the same party, ind this tends to substantiate the assertion of the Conservative press that the opposition to the amendment is centered in Havana, and that the delegates do not represent tho feeling of their constituents. A split is threatened in the National party of Havana because of a resolution adopted against the ' Piatt amendment." Senor Tamayo, secretary of stale, resigned from the party to-tluy.

The Louisville Courier-Journal says this morning: "The Kentucky distilleries and Warehouse Company made a. sensational advance In the price of whlsy yesterday.

The interior towns and cities had a net gain of 1.329, whereas New York city unions suffered a loss of 4,223. The percentage of labor unionists idle at the end of December was 22, as compared with 19.4 in lSW. The coal miners of the Pittsburg district, in convention yesterday, ratified the wage scale signed last week by the wage committee. This action insures steadv employment for more than 20.000 men in tnis district for the coming year. The committee then went into executive session to consider the situation In the Irwin district and devise means to Induce the miners In that strict lo Insist on the adoption of the Pittsburg scale. AH the blast furnace operators in the Youngstown. O.. district posted notices vesterday granting their employes an advance in wages of 10 cents a day, to take effect April 1. The demand of the men is 20 cents, and the announcement was made that they would strike at midnight Sunday If not granted the increase. The action of the operators was a surprise to the workmen, and It is expected the men will hold hasty meetings to take action on the matter. State Commissioner of Labor McMackln, ot New York, has Issued his quarterly labor bulletin. Among other things it says: "Negotiations are progresisng toward" a compact between the American Newspaper Piibllshers Association and the International Typographical Union which, if adopted, will establish the peaceful methods of arbitration in place of strikes or lockouts in that large part of the printing Industry controlled by the Publishers' Association."

Its estimated cost Is $n.i"O0v. The coil operators of the Irwin (Pa.) Held nested notices at all the mines yesterday that the rite of wages for the ensuing year from April 1 will remain the same as lr.st year. The notice Is taken as an Indication thnt the operators will not meet tne mine workers' otllclals in conference on tne question of adopting the Pittsburg seile, ami an effort may be made to enforce a strike. There are 2".iv miners In the Ir win district, but the operators claim that only la per cent, are In the union ard the others are satisfied with the reale and conditions.

From th" tone of the Germ in press it appears that almost all branches "of German Industries are using their Influence to procure an increase in the tariff rates, accrrdlng to a report from United States Consul Schumann at Mainz, to the StaU Department. Actuated by the fear of American competition, paper manufacturers in particular ure loud in their demands tor a higher protective tariff, not beleg

content, the report says, with having raised the prices on their wares from 25 to 4; per cent. They claim, says Consul Schumann, that if their demands are not hee 1td the United States will ruin the German pi. per industry, as new paper factories are being constantly built In the United States and before long will simply flood the German market, it is pointed out that If the demands of the paper manufacturers are acceded to. the prices of German paper would be increased enormously, and, natuially. the German press, which would suffer greatly from such a contingency, is waging a lively war against an increased tat iff on paper.

Springfield Republican. it is the striking merit of Italy that the recent assassination of King Humbert has not been followed by a reaction against liberalism and democracy. An attempt to kill the' oll Emperor William I of Germany was instantly made by Bismarck the pretext for the passage of harsh laws restricting popular liberties. In Russia, of course, the liberal movement was thrown back for years by the severely reactionary policy taken up after the assassination cf Alexander 11. In Italy no such reaction has taken place, while Victor Emmanuel III lias certainly exhibited the traits of a statesman in his course during a dllHcult period. Upon the fall of the Saracco Ministry he did not turn to the Conservative leaders, but to the Liberals, Zanardelll and Giollttl; and he turned to them at a time when they were necessarily in co-operation with the Republican and Socialist groups, which had been largely increased at the last parliamentary elections. Against Zanardelll there had long been a coalition to prevent his rise to the premiership on the ground that his supremacy would mean the abandonment of the government to extreme parties. The young King, however, called upon Zanardelll to form a Cabinet with the distinct understanding that he could associate with him whatever parliamentary groups he chose. Tills action seems to have been taken by Victor Emmanuel with a deep-seated purpose to prove that he had liberal nnd democratic sympathies and that he would rule "with the people and for the people." There is no European monarch who has uttered more sagacious sentiments than these, which are credited to the young King of Italy: "If there are Radicals and Socialists in the Cabinet it will be the best demonstration that the monarchy can assimilate no matter what party, even the most extreme, when they have a. programme and definite object the prosperity and welfare of the country." Zanardelli's Cabinet as finally made up contains no Radicals or Socialists, tdnce the premier could mt come to an agreement with them as to the best mode of reducing military expenses, but his Ministry is In no sense reactionary, while it promises to be true to the interests of the common people in matters of taxation and the state expenditures. With the King himself in sympathy with a government imbued with so liberal ideas the situation is no less than remarkable so soon after the tragedy in which Victor Emmanuel's father fell by the assassin's hand. Olli NATIVE OSTEM). An Eastern Opinion of the Health Rewort at V-t Itiideii. Victor Smith, in New York Press' Such of our gamblers as spell reform with big capitals and dream of it at night are preparing to betake themselves and thetr remaining paraphernalia to West Baden, Ind., which has Uen a Tammany Hall resort for several years. At first West Baden was a way station on the Loulsvillo. New Albany Si Chicago Railroad, in thi southern part of the Hoosier State, where a few persons stayed for a we.'k at a time to drink the water of the saline sulphur t-prir.gs.

What was good enough for the bo.s of Tammany was good enough for the Cook county Democracy: what was gottd enough for New York and Chicago was pudding for blacklegs. The politician and the gamester went hand In hand, and Wst Baden Is to-day our native Ostend. Lately Wall street has taken up West Baden and French Lick, adding a highly desirable element to the community. The gaming house proprietors are tickled nearly tc death. The beauty of the water is this that no man can drink it and whisky at the same time. So long as he drinks the water his appetite for ll juor relxds. and, t converso, so long as he drinks liquor hi appetite for the water n bels.

Every known device for enticing the piker and plunger is on the grounds, and with each recurring season tho managers ate appropriating a larg part of their profit? to the extension of the casino and the aggravation cf Its fascination. It may be said just here that West Baden. French L'ck and Chesapeake Leach are. not in collusion or competition for the gambling business of New ori. and are in no way responsible for th five purifiers and the committee of fifteen, the lattt . of which seeir.s bound tf drive gamesters and ysuckers alike out of town.

Russia is awakening to the uses of electricity; various cities, from Odessa on the Black sea to Vladivostock on the Pacific, are Inviting estimates on trolley system and electric lighting. I have stopped at Russian hotels which have ordered out tho flimsy French incandescent plant, to be replaced by the more reliable up-to-date American system. Even the Franco alliance does not guarantee favoritism. Only recently, the city of Odessa gave an American firm an order for the piping for tho construction of her sewerage system. The English, following the example of the Germans, have gone about the work of securing Russian orders in a businesslike manner. They publish a Ruslsan business paper at Moscow, and give purchasers six months or a year in which to settle their bills. American business men seem content to rely on the exertions ef the various consular agents, for it is only through the Influence of their minister at St. Petersburg that any progress has fnon made toward holding the projosed machinery exhibit in St. Petersburg next summer, and now that the likelihood of on International exposition at St. Petersburg in 1)I grows, the tw may be merged.
