Dec. 5. The Financier to-day says a combine is bting effected among the tobacco growers of the Philippine islands with a capital of between 1:6,000,000 and 7,000,000. The scheme ia being carried on In London, under the auspices of the Rothschilds, who, through their Spanish Investments, have large interests in the Philippines. The paper adds: "The contracts and concessions were obtained through some of the American peace delegates, who, in typically Yankee fashion, have managed to combine private and olllclal business. The name of a prominent American commissioner is being freely bandied about London, but without any apparent Justification. The chief promoting, it is ssaid, is being done in New York, though the names of the parties doing it are not announced." . A G II ALDO NOT CLKVIIH. Merely Cunning, Mr. Weeks Snys Vnssar Girls Suffer Privations. SAN FRANCISCO. Der. 5 Congressman Edgar Weeks, of Michigan, who arrived from Manila on tho transport Hancock, when asked about conditions in the Philippines, replied: "I saw Aguinaldo and fpent half a day with him. Ha is not an intelligent man. and, I think, feels that he is inferior in Intellect to the Americans. He seemed to me not clever, but cunning. The general opinion among the military men is that Aguinaldo should be allowed to escape. He is a dead issue and is no longer a menace to the United States. It is supposed he does not want to run aawy, as he would at once be assassinated by the friends f General Luna, whom he ordered to be killed. "The nw method of educating the natives, as adopted by thl government, is wrong. Renned. handsome your. ladies from Vassar and oiher colleges went d wn to the Philippines to educate tiu-se nalivt-s. They have had to put up with all kinds of privations and to eat native food, and in some places their lives have bern in langer. I think this is entirely unnecessary, nt plae ot these young ladies, discharged soldiers of education, who had become acclimated, should be appointed and the young ladies should be sent home. The question of the Sultan of Suhl and his harem is a very small matter when you are confronted with tha great questions that are now Involved.

One received to-day setting out the feellnxs of the municipal council of liacara, Luzon, reads In part: "All the members, having received this news grieve, mourn and are indignant at so lamentable a misfortune, and after a few moments of silence unanimously resolve to record in the minutes the deep sorrow which the death of the honorable President has caused.

Ports Closed by Chaffee. MANILA, Dec. 5. General Chaffee has issued orders for the closing of all ports In the La gun a and Batangas provinces. The quartermasters there "will cease paying rents to the Filipinos for buildings used for military purposes, as it is known that a large proportion of the money finds its way to the insurgents in the shape of contributions, and General Chaffee intends that no more government funds shall find their way into the hands of the enemy. The reason for closing the ports is that too many supplies are found to be getting into the possession of the insurgents.

SPEECH BY THE PRINCE EDWAIID'S HEIR TALKS AT A LUNCHEON IN THE GUILDHALL. Reception In Honor of the Royal Tourists Addresses by Cliumberlnln and Salisbury. LONDON, Dec. 5. Tho city entertained th Prince and Princess of Wales to-day at a luncheon given in the Guildhall and presented them with an address of congratulations on their successful tour of the British empire. The royal party drove from York House to the Guildhall ia an open four-horse landau escorted by Life Guards. They were met everywhere with the heartiest reception from the sightseers lining the brilliantly bedecked and trooping guards on the route. The scene in the library of the corporation's historic quarters, where their royal highnesses were received by the lord mayor. Sir Joseph C. Dimsdale, and the corporation, was picturesque. Leyee or diplomatic dress uniforms were worn by the majority of the guests, among whom were the agents general of the colonies. Prominent among the other notables present were Lord Salisbury, Lord Rosebery and Mr. and Mrs. Chamberlain. Tho reception was made the occasion of a demonstration in favor of the government and Mr. Chamberlain, the colonial secretary, as well as emphasizing the loyalty of th.e colonies and their devotion to Great Britain. It was a purely family affair, no foreign diplomats being Invited, but the Englishmen present included most of the notabilities of the country. The Prince of Wales wor the full uniform of a rear admiral. The princess wa3 dressed In black brocade velvet relieved by a long chain of diamonds. The lord mayor and aldermen wore their state robes. Seated in the vicinity of thu Prince and Princess of Wales were Lord Salisbury in the Windsor uniform and Lord RoEsbery and the Duke of Devonshire in the same uniform, with the broad ribbon of the Garter, and Mr. Chamberlain in court uniform. The Prince of Wales seized the opportunity to make a speech on the relations between the motherland and the colonies, reviewing the experience of his tour and emphasizing the lessons to be learned from it. lie referred to each colony he had visited, and In speaking about the Dominion said: "To Canada was borne the message already conveyed to Australia and New Zealand of the motherland loving- appreciation of the services rendered by its gallant sons. In the Journey from ocean to ocean we were enabled to see something of its matchless scenery, the richness of its soli and the boundle?s possibilities of that vast and but partly explored territory. We saw, too. the success which has crowned the efforts to weld into one community the peoples of its two great races." The prince's address made a most favorable impression upon the audience. Mr. Chamberlain as accorded a tremendous reception when he rose to respond to Lord Rosebery's toast to the colonies, but neither he nor Lord Rosebery said anything of international Importance. Lord Salisbury alone referred to the topic of which everybody was thinking, namely, England's unpopularity abroad. He said: "No doubt it is true Just at this moment that we have enemies who are not very reticent In expressing their opinion. Hut on the other hand to-day's celebration, which Is largely due to the action and cooperation of their royal highnesses, has shown that w;e possess in the support of our distant kinsmen an approval and sanction which to us is worth infinitely more than all the censure that we may receive from other nations." This remark of the premier was greeted with prolonged cheering. He continued: "I cannot say that they are

An Echo or the Civil Wnr and a Hurled Treasure. RICHMOND, Va., Dec. ü. Judge Berryman Green returned to-night from Danville, bringing" with him a clew to a buried fortune and the sequel to the story of a remarkable lawsuit of the reconstructlon period. The story is romantic, affects some of the most prominent families In Danville and involves a treasure of 55,000 buried during the war by a Federal soldier, now living in Ohio, who offers to come and search it out If he Is Insured against prosecution for having taken the money. Near the close of the war, when the Federal forces were overruning Danville, the directors of a bank there divided out the gold, amounting to $5,öü0 each, among themselves for safekeeping, the idea being that in this way most, if not all, of the assets of the bank could bo saved. After the war the directors held a meeting and each one produced the $5,000 In gold except Mr. Waddill. who stated that he took his J.V00 home and that a Federal soldier entered his house, and, after severely choking him and threatening his life, succeeded in getting the money. Waddill's statement was verified by his wife in every particular. The bank sued for tho money and a long and expensive litigation bepan. which resulted in Mr. Waddill being declared by the Supreme Court of Appeals net responsible. Mr. Waddill was represented by Berryman Green and George C. Cabell. The bank was represtnted by an equally strong array of counsel. All the parties to tho litigation are now dtad except Judge Grcon. Just? as Judge Green was about to take the train at Danville to-day the . postmaster came running to him, bringing a letter he had received from Ohio. The writer states that he was a Federal soldier, and while in Danville, Just before the end of the war. he had gone into a man's house and secured &, in gold; that being pressed for time he buried the gold and was hurried off with his regiment before he was able to return and unearth it. He says he has a map of the location and will return to Danville and secure the gold and return it to the owner if he is guaranteed protection from arrest or prosecution by the authorities of Virginia. He otters. If this Is done, to come to Danville, locate the money und deliver it to the proper owners, provided that out of the amount his expenses will be paid. Another interesting phase rf the case is that Major Sutherlin, long since dead, and father-in-law of Col. Francis L. Smith, of Alexandria, bought up all the assets of the Bank of Danville, and if the money is recovered it will be declared assets, and will go to Mrs. Smith as heir of her father. MRS. BONINE'S TRIAL.

MerrilFs MAURICE CUBANS HAVE NO IDEALS SUCH IS THE VIEW OF REV. W. DUDLEY POWERS, A MISSIONARY, Wim Also Snys the' Priest Is the Most Conspicuously Immoral 3Inn In the Island. NEW YORK, Dei. 5. The missionary conference of the Protestant Episcopal Church was continued to-day. This afternoon the missionary exhibit in the parish house at St. Paul's Church was thrown open to the public and many gathered in St. Taul's to listen to the addresses of three prominent church misionarles. Rev. W. Dudley Powers, of Cuba, was the first speaker. After declaring that the people of Cuba have no ideals, are not spurred on by any ambitionsare animated by no inspirations and look forward to no future, Mr. Towers said: "However, there are indications of a reaction, and a violent reaction at that. I do not wish to commence a tirade against any church, but the truth may as well be known. The reaction setting in Is against the Catholic Church. Onethird of the population have no ecclesiastical connections; neither are they Instructed In the truth. Among them the priest is conspicuously the most immoral man. A really good priest cannot be found. When 200 of these sailed away from the country, a n?val officer was heard to mutter: 'Thank God. When he was told that others would take their places he replied: 'None so bad as these can come.' " After declaring that now there is a disposition to receive the truth throughout the island and other encouraging conditions prevail, Mr. Powers said the people of Cuba to-day are not so much immoral as "unmoral." They have lost the ability to distinguish right from wrong. The Rt. Rev. Peter Trimble, of Alaska, often referred to as "the hero blfhop of Alaska," then spoke on "What We Are Doing for Alaska." The Rev. Henry Forrester spoke of "Missionary Work in Mexico." This evening at Christ Church, under the head of "Why Do Missionary Work?" addresses were delivered by the Rt. Rev. William D. Walter, of this diocese on "Diocesan Missions;" Rt. Rev. F. R. Graves, bishop of Shanghai., on "The Heathen Need." and Rt. Rev. Luden L. Klnsolvlng. L.shop of Brazil, on "The Christian Need."
