Interview with Mayor Molr la l.a?t
NlKhl's Truth.
They fliould not, It the mayor repudl
nted them and emphasizes thai repu
dlntloii by disciplining the man who
misrepresented him. The Truth 11
nelf says: "If Mr llatton acted with
out the authority of the mayor he
eertnlnty did thr mayor a ureal In
Juntlee. for which nothlus short of his
Immediate dismissal from a position
he has grossly ahused can atone. We
Pee no other reasonable conclusion
to t)c derived from Mr. West' allldavlt
nnd we sny this without prejudice to
any of the parties concerned. it Is.
according to our view of the case, a
most humiliating predicament In which
to place the rhief executive of the
city." Dismissal may ho too severe.
Nobody wishes to take the bread and
butter out of Mr. Ilatton's mouth for
jui excess of zeal which he doubtless
thought would win approval at head
quarters. Uut the mayor.lt seems to us,
must In justice to himself.do more than
djfravow Air. Hatton's error, ile must
censure It as. In effect, a reflection
upon his own nlllcial Integrity. The
public expects this, not on account of
any ill will toward Mr. Itatton or with
any wish to pursue him, but as an
obligation owed to tho dignity of the
ofllce of mayor.
The mayor has yet time In which to
extricate himself from this predica
ment. By disciplining Private Secre
tary Hatton he will give proof ot hi1?
disapproval of the hitter's course in
using the prestige of his olllco as a
leverage in a discreditable attempted
deal. Ity Mr. Hatton's own admis
sion he went to see Mr. West In Mr.
AValker's behalf. Why? What had
West to do with Walker or with Walk
er's confirmation'.' llatton says West
is the "paid hireling" of a corporation
alleged to be guilty of debauching pub
lic ollkials. What business had the
private secretary of tho mayor with
such a man?
The mayor miiM accept tho conse
quences if he fails publicly to rebuke
such an action on the part of his con
fidential agent.
Leading politicians are still keeping
an .apprehensive eye upon tho move
ments of ex-Speaker Keed. So long as
he shows, no disposition to settle In
Ohio, however, there s-eeniH to be no
real cause for alarm on part of those
who dead his presidential ambitions.
Let the President Decide.
Advices from Washington say that
for tho past few months the "major
general commanding" of the American
army. Nelson A Miles, has been com
pletely Ignored by the secretary of war
and his subordinates. Under a recent
order ot Secretary Alger, weekly con
ferences of all heads of mib-dcpart-
merits In the war department are now
held, but General Miles has been os
tentatiously excluded from these gath
erings, although by virtue of his ofllce
ho ought to he the most Influential
participant. So noticeable has this at
tempt to ostracize Miles become that
the Washington correspondent of the
rittsburg Times, an unwavering sup
porter of the administration, Is moved
to write: "The bickerings nnd Ill-feeling
between the War department and
General Miles have wearied the public,
and their present relations nro not con
sldered as conducive to tho best In
terests of the service or the country."
In a situation of this character it
Feen.s to us that tho president of the
1'nlted States, as commander-in-chief,
ought to take action of a positive and
decisive character. It is a situation
rlslns? superior to personal preferences
or ambitions. It Is one which Inevit
ably tends to disaffect and to demor
alize the whole regular military ser
vice. If tho president Is not Fatlsiled
with General Miles let him frankly say
so and ask for tho hitter's resignation,
which no doubt upon such a request
would promptly be forthcoming. If on
tho other hand he Is not satisfied with
Secretary Alger's record and person
ality, let him be equally direct and
frank and ask Alger to go. The luglc
of the situation as effected by tho two
official reports of war Investigating
tribunals would seem to call for the
displacement of one or both of these
men, for th good of tho service.
Hut If neither of these alternatives
Is acceptable, to the president there
(ilsts a very simple third solution. Let
him summon Alger, Corbln, Weston,
Miles and tho various other heads and
sub-heads of tho war department to a
personal conference, and In their pres
ence express decidedly his opinion of
their continual bickerings, with a
pointed admonition that that kind of
thins must stop Immediately. The
president, as commander-in-chief. In a
time of military activities, has a right
tn expect nnd also a rlrjht to demand
discipline and loyal subordination
among the war olllco ofllcials. Ho has
the light tn veto any schemo of ostra
cism of one ofllcer by other olllcerH und
under tho circumstances of this partic
ular case, as they appear to tho pub
lic, this right Is also a duty which tho
prcFldent owes to the army and to the
nation.
A German reporter Is serving a
jeven years' sentenco In ptitun for
having written u lurid falsehood con
cerning a plot to assasslnnte tho em
peror. American Journalism Is as un
popular In the Fatherland as Ameri
can pork.
The e'teemed Philadelphia Press,
which a few days ago pronounced Sec
retary Alger a well-meaning hut weak
man now occupies a column and a
half of douhle-lead"d edllotiil ppace
with laudation of his "vigorous nnd ef
fective" work. Which Judgment Is tho
public to nccept?
The Secret of Agulnaldo's Rebellion.
An Interesting vhw of the Innunec
lln In Luzon It presented In a letter
to the New Vnik livening Post by Its
conespondent In Manila, John K. l.ass.
The Kvenlng Post is violently hostile
to the administration's Philippine pol-
Icy and Its representative, Mr. Pass, I
went to Manila sharing his employer's
opinion mi '.his subject. Hut several
m -tilths' study of Phlllppln condition.;
on the spot have modified Mr. ihiss'
,iinrlulon. although he has nol yet
been ablf to convert the editor of the
Kvenlng Post. Under date nf April !t
Mr. Mass write Ihut the backbone of
the Philippine rebellion bus been
broken and that the more Intelligent
otricors and men in Agulnaldo's army
n gnlze the futility of their struggle
and want to make peace on the Im.os
of acceptance of American rub', but
thev nre held hack by the teirorlzlng
tactics of nn oath-bound s-ociot society,
which has forced the hopeless lighting,
ordered most ot the crimes committed
by the Insurgents and inaugurated
among the peace-loving population a
veritable reign of terror.
"There has for years." write? Mr.
Mass, "existed a secret brotherhood
known as the Kntaptmans. a political
organization resorting to the methods
used by the Ku-Klux Klan ot unsavory
memory In our own country, and using
tho same mystic symbol, 'K. K. K.'
Not politics alone, but financial gain
and ether considerations prompted the
members of this order to deeds ot mur
der, robbery and arson. The leaders of
the revolution combined with (his so
ciety, and for the time being, at least,
Micceeded hi making it their chief
agrnt nnd support. During tho months
when the Amu leans were Ivlng idle In
Manila, awaiting tho action of the
peace commission, the senate and the
administration, this society was busy
recruiting Its .strength from among the
young and reckless and Irresponsible
Flllplno,untll it became s-tiong enough
to make the entire populace bow to Its
will and fear Its vengeane?. Through
out the city every able-bodied man was
listed will made to give In his adher
ence to the revolution. K'en the ser
vants of white families, to whom they
weie attached because of kind and gen
erous treatment were registered as
revolutionary soldiers, and feared to
make protest. The Filipinos who drow
officers' carriages, were their persmal
servants, did their washing, or cooked
In their kitchens, as well as others who
work'd In company kitchens or about
the hospitals, were either Katapunans
themselves or o fcare.l them that,
when the time came for action, they
iles'uioii their posts to a man, stealing
what they could, Including all tho
clothing In the hands ot th' laundrv
men. Many ot them wcr- found dead
In the trenches on the day of the big
light around Alaulla.
"It was dread of th s.?eret and swift
vengeance of this society that enabled
Agulnaldo to collect his taxes In every
house in Manila. The Americans col
lectc.l the regular taxes only where
their military authority extended, but
Agulnaldo collected his even from the
body servant of the military governor
himself. This is the force the revolu
tionary leaders have set In motion,
and which now holds them In Its re
IcntJLSS grasp. There Is not wanting
evidence that Its strength was tested
by Agulnaldo Immediately after tho
failure of his attack on Manila and his
disastrous defeat at Caloocan showed
him his inability to fight the Americans
successfully. There were tumors that
Agulnaldo had been deposed because
he sent emissaries to General Otis to
consult about peace, and that Mon
tenegro had been made commander of
the army. This proved not to be whol
ly true, but It appears that Montenegro,
an ardent revolutionist, though but a
bell-boy at tho Lala Hotel before the
war, had the Katapunans behind him.
and was strong enough to dictate the
policy of tho president, who had either
to go on with tho war or become a
refugee himself, with the possibility of
Katapunan vengeance seeking him out
wherever he might go."
To this oath-bound society cemented
together by Malay Ignorance, supersti
tion and love of intrigue, Air. 15asa
ascribes most of the excesses of the In
surrection, Including tho unsuccessful
plot to assassinate, at a given signal,
every white person residing In Manila.
"So this," he concludes, "is the situa
tion: The United States grasped tlvi
Philippine electric battery and cannot
let go, and Agulnaldo grasped the
pules of the revolutionary electric tr.it
i hints and cannot drop them. The lead
ers of this revolution, except tho
fanatic that now control the original
leaders, went Into this movement fur
personal gain. They wanted to fonc
the United Stales into term, with
them, or. In ease our government was
bluffed into recognizing their so-called
republic, they had It so fixed that It
would be a purely oligarchical govern
ment, with themselves In control. They
overshot tho mark when they unions,
ened the force they now are un..bl.- to
control, and uro between the devil and
the iieep sea However, I think thoro
will be no more serious ilghtln?. that
the Insurgent army will gradually dis
integrate, that the Katapunans will
steadily lose stiength and power to
terrify tho people, even If they keep
up a guerrilla warfare for a time, and
that a pence will be established by tho
tlmo tho rainy season sets In which a
garrison of 20.000 men can maintain."
In tho llgh: of this Information, tho
authenticity of which Is thoroughly
established, well may the Philadelphia
new-draper recently edited by the pres
ent accomplished postmaster general
say: "Tho very worst thing which
could happen to tho Philippines and
to tho freedom and future self-government
of the inhabitants of thcae islands
would bo tho success of this conspi
racy. Tho Ablatio despotism which It
would Introduce would be the trrave
of all future advance for tho archipe
lago. The Issue today presented Is
whether under this responsibility the
United States shall permit Malay des
potism to be established by nn Asiatic
secret society, or whether, first, order
nnd tho telcn of law shnll be restored
und next self-government l.u Intro
duced by American hands. To this Is
sue only one answer Is possible, and
It Is being made as fast as our troops
can make it, hindered by tho ullles in
this country of this policy of Intimida
tion and assassination."
llertha Pellsteln, who was sent to nn
limine tisylnm th other day, cnrrlcd
with her three book: "Pen llur,"
"Uncle Tom's Cabin," and "Flashes of
Wit fiom Pench and Par." It Is
thought that the responsibility rests
on th inst named wolk.
General ProoUe's transmission of
word from General Wood that reports
of brigandage In Santiago province nro
completely untrue suggests that the
Wood style of law and order ought to
pievall throughout Cuba.
Kdllor Kohlsaat's nightmare story
alleging wholesale debauchery In tho
lust congress In tho Interest of a Cuban
lepubllc docs not appear to attract
confirmation. Our Chicago friend
should name names.
Tlie Times-Herald Is worrying lest
the bold, bad man. Quay, should tuko

Doubtless the Times-Herald editor
would piefer to boss that Job unaided.

Latest Troubles
in the Transvaal
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
THIS AUPICST by the authori
ties of the South African repub
lic or Pritisli subjects and for
mer officers of the Pritlsh army,
assuming, as must be assumed, that
It has been made for probable cause,
derives whatever Importance may at
tach to it from the fact that It will
tend powerfully to Increase the strain
of a tension which had already nearly
reached the breaking point. It has
for some time been felt and seen that
the relations between Great Prltaln
and the little Poor republic over whose
administration Ooin Paul Kruger pre
sides with so much shrewdness of
judguvent and tenacity of purpose,
were rapidly approaching a crisis.
Some weeks ago a petition was for
warded to London, whereby more than
20,000 foreign residents of the Trans
vaal recited a long list of grievances
and appealed to the Pritlsh govern
ment for relief. No one who under
stands how such things are done sup
poses that this action was spontaneous
as to Its origin, or that It was taken
until official assurances had been ob
tained with regard to Its acceptability.
If there had been any doubt as to this,
the manner In which the petition wns
received by the authorities of tho col
onial department sufficiently defined
the situation.
fl
it was at once made apparent that
this protest of twenty thousand Prit
lsh subjects against the harshness and
Injustice of their treatment by the
Kiuger administration was Intended
to bo the point of departure for a new
line of policy, and since then tho In
dications thus exhibited have been
abundantly confirmed. There has been
an Interchange of communications be
tween Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, tho
colonial secretary, and President Kru
ger. nnd while their terms have not
been published, their tenor Is an open
secretl Mr. Chamberlain has told
Oom Paul that the grievances stated
must be redressed nnd the latter, real
izing that the Pritlsh colonial secre
tary means business, Is even now pre
paring to take part In a conference
with the Pritlsh high commissioner
for South Africa, though whether for
tho purpose of covering a reluctant
retreat ur inventing fresh pretexts for
Inaction It would be hard to say.
o
Tho situation In the Transvaal Is
peculiar. Here lived, until a few
yeais ago, a rude und primitive com
munity of farmers. Isolated from the
world and content with their Isola
tion. They neither Invited Immigra
tion nor desired It. They resented
and opposed It with all their might,
but it came In spite of them. Tho
discovery of gold within their terri
tory exerted un attraction which there
was no resisting and tho Transvaal
filled up with adventurous seekers af
ter fortune, who sotm outnumbered
the original owners and cultivators
of the soil. These Outlnnders. as tho
Poors call them, have Immensely In
creased the wealth of the lepubllc and
pay much the huger part of the current
taxation, but they nr excluded from
nny share In the government and urn
subject to a variety of vexatious and
burdensome discriminations, against
which they have constantly protested,
but hitherto In vain. It seems that
now at last their demands, or the chief
nf them, nre ubout to be enforced.
o
Such Is the crisis which the arrests
now reported have occurred to accentu
ate. If tho arrests shull prove to have
been Justified, tho Incident may
have no othor than an Indirect effect,
though that effect cunnot be otherwise
than disturbing, but unless strong evi
dence of tho culpability of tho persona
Implicated Is forthcoming It will bo
difficult to convince the Pritlsh public
that these arrests, made at this par
ticular Juncture, do not represent an
other sly trick played by President
Kruger for the purpose of furnishing
an argument against the reforms which
he has been utged to Institute. Put
whatever mny be the nature, of the
Impendlntr developments, It Is evluent
that a new era of politics In the South
African republic Is about to bo ushered
in.
LITERARY NOTES.
"A History of the American Nation,"
by Professor A. C. McLaughlin, which Is
published by V. Appleton & Co., Is the
first volume In the new Twentieth Cen
tury. The purpose of this book Is to
trace the main outlines of national de
veliipnicnt, to show how the American
people came to lie what they are. These
main outlines Include the strugRle of tho
nations of western liurope tor possession
or the New World; the foundation and
growth ot Pimllsh colonics; the develop
ment of political Ideas; the dltlicultles
and disorders of the confederate period:
the adoption or the Constitution of the
United States; the effort to maintain
national Independence; and tho subse
quent struggles and events that finally
brought all sections of the nation Into a
bond of perpetual union. These events
have been so narrated that the reader
will come to an appreciation of his po
litical surroundings and of the political
duties that devolve upon hhn. For this
reason especial attention has been paid
to political fucir. to the rise of parties,
to the Issues Involved hi elections, to
the development of governmental ma
chinery, and, In guieral, to questions of
government nnd administration. The M-
ltiutt'ut it.rt r..iti,..,. .....1 ..u..,.ntiil1 1 fllm

maps huvo received the most careful at
tention. When newspaper correspondents wero
brought to the front as prominently as
army and navy men hi our war with
Spain, most of the xtiiy-nl-hoin" ciltles
united In the opinion that tin- best work
done by nny newspaper man at the time
was that of Oscar King Davis, the cer
icpondent of the New York Sun. Ills
account of th" enptute of Guam by oar
naval forces Is perhaps the best thing
of the kind t tin t has ever been written.
Mr. Davis Is about to publish his first
book, entitled -'Our Conquests In the Pa
cific." This will contain the famous
Guam article, as well as many others
from the Philippine. Mr. Davis hid
much to do with Agulnaldo, and gives
hi an Interesting way tho conclusions
that lie arrived at from his numerous
conversations with the noted Filipino
chief. As he saw much ot Admiral
Dewey, he has, for this and other ob
vious reasons, given much space to our
great naval hem. The book Is to be Il
lustrated by sixteen half-tone engrav
ings, from photographs chosen out of sev
eral hundred most interesting pictures
leeted or taken by Mr. Davis dining his
work as a correspondent.
The success of Hubert W, Chambers
new novel, "Ashes ot Umpire." in ling
land is beginning to stir the critics In
France and Germany. it Is said that
the German emperor Is very angry tit the
book, nnd that translations nre forbid
den. What that monar.ii will think of
Mr. Chambers' new book, "The Con
spirators," now appealing serially In
Harper's Weekly, can only be surmised;
for Air. Chambers has certainly used
Wilhelm ns a character and treated him
with n playful abandon calculated to
arouse meeker monaniis to frenzy. As
for the other book. "Ashes of Umpire,"
It is receiving the enthusiastic praise of
the English press. The novel ran through
the Illustrated London News, and was
magnificently Illustrated by Forrcstler.
Now the Mncmlllans have brought the
book out In Loud) n, and the Stokes com
pany In New York, and editions follow
editions.
The success which F. T. Pllllril has
won by the force and vividness nf "The
Cruise of the Cachalot" linpnrts a spe
cial Interst to the announcement of his
forthcoming book. "Idylls of the Sea."
which Is to be published by D. Appleton
& Co. This bonk sketches varied phases
of the life and experiences of those who
go down to the sea In ships. It Is not
confined to the vvhnbr's exploits, but in
cludes the things which are seen and the
adventures which are undergone by all
manner of men upon the sea. The keen
observation and dramatic quality of the
nuthors first book are vividly Illustrated
In this fascinating volume.
Harold Frederic's Inst novel. "The
Market Place." Is to be published sim
ultaneously In Ameilea, England and
Canada. The Ameilciiti nnd Canadian
editions are to be Illustrated by draw
ings made by Harrison Fisher. All es
pecially interesting Item of news Is that
the novel In book form will contain much
that was omitted from It hi Its sella!
publication, and In book form only can
the reader have the story Just as It loft
the pen of the author.
Stephen Crane has fixed upon "Active
Service" ns the title of his forthcoming
novel. Ah the hero and heroine hav
many exciting experiences In the arena
of the Greco-Turkish war. It would seem
to be well chosen and likely to Interest
his admirers, ospeclaly ns It Is of the
same general nature us the title of the
author's most successful work, "Tho
Pcd Padgo of Courage."
"A History or Hohcmlan Literature."
by Count Lutzovv, Is to be the next vol
ume In the Literatures of tho World
Series published by D. Appleton & Co,
The author has developed n comparative
ly unknown field with tact and scholarly
discrimination, nnd ids treatment of the
subject Is happily re-ent'orced by trans
lations of charcterlstlc examples of Ho
liemlan literature.
Governor Poosevelt concludes the story
