Secretary of War Corrects an Appar ent Misunderstanding. Washington, Aug. 23. Apparently, there Is n misunderstanding In tho United States in respect to the mis sion on which General Bates was des patched to the Sultan of Sulu or Jolo. It has been published that tho general was authorized to mako a treaty with the Kultan. The secretary of war &ays that Is a mistake. Neither General Otis nor any ono elso In tho Phlflpplncs has mado or will mako treaties with any of the peoples in the Islands. General Bates was sent to the Sultan of Sulu archipelago to enter Into an agreement with him whereby the sov ereignty of the United States over tho Islands should bo acknowledged and warfare with a half-savago people avoided. The Sulu archipelago was accepted from Spain for tho reason that it was believed to bo better for tho United States to assume sovereignty over the Islands than that they should bo left as dangerous neighbors to bo con trolled either by the sultan or by some other power. In tho geographical grouping they belong to the Philip pine archipelago, and naval officers who appeared before the peace com mission expressed tho opinion that It would require moro forces to control nnd protect tho whole of the nrchl. pelago than to control n part of It, It Is recognized by tho administra tion that the government of the Sulu group Is a difficult problem. The In habitants will havo to bo handled as wo havo had to handle tho most sav age Indian trlbea Rut tho question Is to be left to congress' ns tho whole question of government of tho Philip pines Is left to that body by tho treaty of peace. Tho war department I now directing a mllltnry government In the Philippines, and General Otis Is doing what ho can to place the Amerlrnn flag over all the Islands and havo the na tives recognize It as tho emblem of supremo authority.
