Hecrnt Inxnlnr llprlaloni Do Hoi
Afff-rt (he Rtntnii of the I'hlllp
plnra Civil Ciovernment
der Mllltarr Role Soon.
WASHINGTON. Juno 5.-Tho prnrt
dont mul niciiilicis of the cabinet hnve de
cided, nftrr a full (liyussloii of the ques
tion, thut nu extra n'lsion of confront to
consider the Philippine question will tie
unnecessary.
After the meeting of the cabinet the
following ollieiiil announcement was
uwnle:
"The president linn determined that ex
luting conditions ilo not require or war
rant calling congress together during the
present nununcr or tuning any change in
the policy hitherto pui,iicd and announc
ed in regard to the Philippine Inlands."
The principal point upon which the
cabinet reached n deciwion that an extr
iepion of congrcNM Is not necessary to
enable the president to put In operntion
a civil government in the Philippines is
that the supreme court decisions do not
affect the president's military power ill
the isluuds under his authority as coao
nnnder in chief of the army.
It is not proposed by the administration
to abandon the idea of putting Into opera
tion a civil form of government and pro
mulgating a revised Philippine tariff. The
plan now under contemplation is to Inau
gurate a civil government just ns soon ns
possible under the president's military
power. This will mean that while there
will be a civil administration in the l
lands they will continue under military
control until congress has passed laws
making a complete change of government
wnn a civil head.
The question of prnlgnting a new
tnrilf in the Philippines is not changed
by this decision, us the new tariff, which
is merely a revision of the old one, will
be unnounced when approved by the sec
retary of war, mid the duties will be col
lected by olllcers appointed for that pur
pose by the president under his military
power.
The supreme court decisions as viewed
by the administration settles, first, that
the Poraker net is constitutional; second,
that the collection of duties on Porto
Rican products between the time of the
cession of the island of Porto Illeo and
the passage of the Koraker act was 11
iegul and must be refunded. These are
held to be the main essi ntial points of
the decisions. Xothing in them is con
strued to apply to the tariff situation as
between the I'niteil States and the Philip
pines. The conclusions of the cabinet
are not based on nny knowledge as to the
prospective Philippine decision of the
supreme court, though it is declared
there is little apprehension as to the
findings of that decision. If the present
system is upset in that decision, which
is now anticipated, there will be little
difficulty, it is believed, in refunding
the uniounts meantime collected under
protest.
A niic Diamond.
NEW YOHK, June 1. A diamond so
big that its like has never been seen by

CARNEGIE'S PREDICTION.
.1ns Enorlnnd Will Some Da? eed
Oar Aid.
LONDON', June 5. "Mark my words."
said Mr. Andrew Carnegie last night,
"the time is coming when the continental
powers will combine to smash up this
little island of Great Britain. When that
happens, she will have to turn to the
United States for help.
"I feel certain it will not be refused.
The United Stntes will step In and sny,
'Don't.' They will net just ns Great
Britain did in the Spanish-American war.
What she did then was great, and it is
not half realized yet." .
When Mr. Carnegie gave utterance to
these sentiments, he was in the Lnnghnm
hotel, Loudon, where he hud arrived from
Scotland for the ('number of Commerce
gatherings. Until then he hnd steadfast
ly refused to be interviewed.
Resuming the topic of Anglo-American
relations. Mr. Caruegie said:
"I believe in the community of the Eng
lish spenking races, by which I mean that
the Americans and the British are now
c loser than ever before. Could you get a
better instance than the visit of the dele
gates of the New York Chamber of Com
merce to Windsor last Saturday? I sug
gested it, and King Edward took up the
Idea thoroughly. It was a fitting com
mencement of the new reign.
"I know how deeply interested King
Edward Is in the United Slates. I have
known this since the time, years ago,
when I drove him on a locomotive in the
United Stntes, which, by the way, he did
not forget when we met under different
conditions.
"The idea that the visit of our dele
gates to Windsor can be in any way con
strued as King Edward's recognition of
American commercial superiority is all
nonsense. The king is full of tact and of
friendship for our country."

British Fell at the First Voile-.
Ratterr Lost (inns, but
Iteeovered Them.
LONDON, June 5. The war office pub
lishes the following dispatch from Lord
Kitchener, dnted Pretoria, June 4:
"Jamsatown, Cape Colony, surrendered
to Krltsinger's commando on the morning
of June 2 after four hours' fighting. Th
town guard and loyal volunteers wer
overpowered before our pursuing columns
could come up.
"Our casualties were three killed and
two wounded. The Boer loss is sold to
have been greater.
"The stores were looted, but the gnrrl
son was released.
"Have placed Gemeral French In charge
of the operations in Cape Colony."
Details received regarding the fighting
at Vlakfonteln show that it was one of
the most desperatOAcngngements of the
war. General Dixon's column was trav
ersing the district and establishing posts
when it was attacked by 1.200 Boers un
der Commandant Kemp. The Boers were
so close that 50 British fell at the first
Volley.
The yeomanry held- the position, pro
tecting the guns until they were nenrly
decimated, and then, finding it impossi
ble to save the guns, the artillerymen shot
the gun horses to prevent the Boers mov
ing the guns.
The column quickly recovered from the
shock of the unexpected attack. The
Derbyshlres charged with bayonets and.
after a short desperate fight, drove off
the Boers and recovered the guns. The
Derbyshlres and yeomanry both lost very
heavily.
It is asserted that while the Boers had
temporary possession of the suns thev
shot two artillerymen iu cold blood for
refusing to work them against their own
comrades.
The appointment of General French,
w-ho has been recruiting his health in
Cape Town, to tommnud the operations
in Cape Colony indicates that Lord
Kitchener attaches considerable impor
tance to the invasion.
