Tlio members of tho committee, according
0 tho statement of tho chairman, will meet
u tho Hornugh Council chamhor on Monday
evening noxt, at 7:30 o'clock, for tho purpose
of outliiiK tho work in hand, Tho committee
will subsequently meet tho Iiorough Council
at a time to bo decided upon later.
With probably a few exceptions, the mem-
lers of the committee always take an active
Interest in public atl'alrs and especially havo
they assumed aggressive position on tho
reservoir question. Most 01 them, at least
those who have given public expression to
their opinions, favor the erection of tho
rosorvoir as proposed by tho soven members
of Council. Tho sentiment of tho taxpayers
at tho meeting Thursday night was clearly in
favor of stopping work oil tho reservoir at
once, although the chairman declared a mo
tion to that effect lost, when tho veto was
ton to one in tho atllrmativo. Tho people ot
tho Iiorough, therefore, anxiously await tho
action of tho committee of twenty-five
These gentlemen know tho sentiments of tlio
taxpayers upon tho subject and tho latter
look to the commlttco to carry out these
wishes.
It ib probable a spciial meeting of the
Iiorough Council will bo called, otther Mon
day or Tuesday ovenlug, as tho members of
that body now know tho sentiments of the
people. The seven members who favored
tho reservoir project can hardly assumo a
position antagonistic to public sentiment.
and Mr. lioll will likely find himself in the
minority in pushing tho project ahead.
I lie suggestion lias been made that tlio
meetings of tho commlttco should bo ac
cossiblo to thoso tuxtmvois interested In
borough atfalrs, and that their deliberations
should bo given as much publicity as pos-
sitilo. Objection is raised to this for several
very good reasons, and one or two membeis
of the committee suggest that reprcsenta
tives or tlio press bo allowed to report tho
deliberations of tlio committee, and thus
keep tho people informed upon this now all
important question. Let thero bo no star

THE PEACE
COMMISSION
'liltoliuv Iteiil nnil Justico
White Complete the List.
WHAT THEY WILL DEMAND.
Spain
Must Oodo Luzon Island to
Our Government.
DEMANDS WILL BE IMPERATIVE.
Spain's Commissioners Will Be Notified
That Discussion Will Only Be a Waste
of Time The Judgment of Our Com
missioners Is Against Assuming a Dollar
of the Cuban Debt, and That Question
Will Be as Troublesome as That of the
Philippines.
Washington, Aug. 27. Secretary Day,
upon leaving the cabinet meeting yes
terday afternoon, announced that
Whltelaw Held and Associate Justico
White had been selected as pence com
missioners. The full commission,
therefore, Is ns follows: Secretary of
State Day; Senator C. IC. Davis, of
Minnesota; Senator William P. Frye,
of Maine: Whltelaw Ilk Id. of New
York; Edward D. White, of Louisiana.
Secretary Day last night announced
that all have now accepted, and that
the peace commission stands com
pleted.
The following attaches of tho peace
commission havo been selected and will
be appointed by the president: John
Moore, of Massnchusets, now assistant
secretary of state, to be secietary of
the commission, and J. II. MacArthur,
New York, to be assistant secretary,
Mr. MaoArthur was formerly first sec
retary of tho United States legation at
Madrid, and Is now on special duty at
tho state department. He has had con
Iderable experience In work of a dip
lomatic nature. These appointments
were decided on by the president yes
terday afternoon.
The membership of the commission
being completed, Secretaiy Day ar
ranged to Ieavo for Canton at once In
order to make his personal preparation
for a trip to Pails. Ho will be accom
panied abroad by Mrs. Day, who has
entirely recovered from her recent HI
ness. The secretary has already shipped
to Canton a number of his personal
effects, In anticipation of his early re
tirement from the state department.
Assistant Secretary Moore last night
admitted his selection oh secretary ot
the commission. He said he had not
decided when he would resign his post
as assistant secretary of state, but
that It probably would be within
fortnight. He had a Ions conferenco
with tho president yesterday afternoon,
at which some of the plans of the com
mission were discussed. Secretary Day
also had an Interview with the presl
dent.
The personnel of the American com
mission Is regarded as partlculary
strong among public men. The views of
all the commissioners are pretty well
known.
Secretary Day does not favor the
United States holding all the Philip
pines. He would be satisfied with Ma
nila and Manila bay. Senator Frye
would be satisfied with Luzon Island,
Mr. Held, judging from the editorials
In his paper, considers It Impossible for
Spain to exercise control of any por
tlon of the Philippines, and thinks that
the Interests would bo better subserved
by the United States maintaining con
trol over the entire group.
Senator Davis Is a territorial ex
pansionist, and It Is believed, judging
from some of his recent speeches,
would favor permanent control over the
entire Philippines.
The commissioners apparently arc
not going to Purls to demand tho en
tire group of the Philippine Islands, but
to contend only for the occupation of
Luzon Island. This was strongly de
veloped at a conferenco at the White
House between the president, Secre
tary Day and Senators Davis and Frye,
a majority of tho members of the com
mission.
It Is believed the commlssloeis will
make a straightforward demand for the
Luzon Island, In accordance with sug
gestions supposed to have been receiv
ed from Admiral Dewey. Their de
mands will be stated briefly, but In em-
phatlo terms. It was suggested that
the contention of the United States
phould be drawn up In unmistakable
English and presented to the Spanish
commissioners, with the statement that
discussion would be n waste of time,
an there could be no modification of tho
American claim under any circum
stances. Of course, such a vigorous
American proposition would be sus
tained by the great mass of American
people, but It would hardly be In lino
with diplomacy.
It Is said that tho Spaniards are en
deavoring to make It appear that the
great and all absorbing question Is-the
disposition of the Philippines, encour
aging that Impression In tho hopo that
tho United States may ba Induced in
consideration of certain concessions In,
the Philippines (o assumo the respon
sibility for tho Cuban war debt. Tho
judgment of tho commission thus far
Is against assuming one dollar of the
Cuban debt. It Is behoved now that tho
Cuban dobt question will he as trouble,
come to the commissioners an that of
the Philippines,
Tho American commissioners will
enter upon their duties with the firm
determination to bring about a speedy
Conclusion. They will leave here about
the middle of September uud reach
Paris In time to begin woik In accord
ance with the terms ot the protocol.

prepared a feast which was enjoyed by tho
young man's many acquaintances.
In an interview with a IIiciiald reporter
Mr. lleiscl related tho following Interesting
conversation : "I left town in Juno, lhlifl, and
ouriieycd to Pittsburg, and remained thoro
but n sliiut time when I extended my travels
to Denver, Col. Not content with my now
oeation I set out for Elktou, Col., vtlicro I
ngaged in gold milling. After six months
of mining I began tho 'punching' of cows,
generally termed a cowboy, of which I had
my flist cxperieuto in New Mexico. This
was last yoar. When tho war with Spain
was in progress I inherited adesiro to become
a fighter for the Stars and Strlpos. Hearing
ot Icudy" Koosovclt, who was then orgauiz-
ng his Itough Itiders, I made application to
enlist. I was mustered in Troop 0. at Santa
l o, iow .Mexico, on May 3, and was among
its llrit members. Tho Statu of Now Mexico
furnished 310 riders, this entile number
being bout from Santa I-e to San Antonio,
Now Mexico, where wo wero all given
bronchos to "bust" or break in. Wo remained
there some tlmo aud wero then transferred
to I ampa, Ha., where wo went into camp,
but shortly after set sail for Cuba. I wish to
stato hero that no horses woio taken to Cuba,
but wero left at Tampa, Fla., witli teu men
lriiui each troop in charge.
Wo landed at lijquaro, Cuba, on the 22nd
of June, and two days later engaged in our
first light at El Caney, losing S mou and 15
wounded. On Juno 30th wo marched to San
Juan, tho hills that lio directly back of tho
city of .Santiago, whoro wo woro encamped.
no placed a hattory of artillery within 100
feet of the camp, uud on July 1st this sumo
battery opened fire on a Spanish block house,
which was situated about 5,000 yards from
our camp, lliroo rounds woro fired, when
tho Spanish retaliated, killing two gunnorB
with tho first shell. Their second
volley killed threo Hough Itiders
and wounded eight. Wo had six hundred
riders in all under command of Iloosovelt.
Wo finally succeeded in capturing the block
house after a fierce fight. Gen. Shafter and
tho 10th U. S. Cavalry aro largely responsible
lor tho oxlsteneo of tho COO riders to-day
Shortly after we had been located tho
Spaniards began to encloso us in in tlio shape
ol a V, which was discovered by the General
through a largo field glass. This compolled
us to withdraw some distance and change
our mode of attack.
"Two weeks ago wo set sail for Montauk
Point, L. I., whero they are now oncamped
with 1,200 men and as many horses. Man'
of tho men are in tho dctontion hospital,

Mr. Malono, as a mombor of tho committeo
on nuisances, stated that many of tho collars
in tho houses on tho north side of Centre
street ami cast from Bridge strcot woro in
very bad shape, many of them liclng filled
with water from 8 to 10 inches in depth. Tho
cause of tho filling up is that tho bed of tho
crcok is higher than tho levol of tho sower,
and that tho only remedy for this trouble
was to lower tho bed of the crook. His re
marks were substantiated by Solicitor Hurko
who had accompanied tho committe
to the seat of tho nuisance In i
few short remarks tho Solicitor ox
pounded his views on tho matter by saying
that tbo filling up of tho stream was not ouly
attributable to the P. & II. O. & I. Company
aud tho Thomas Coal Company, but also to
the Iiorough, as tho bed of tho stream con
tained much natural soil composed of sand
which had been washed there through tbo
sewers that empty into it. Upon motion of
Mr. Malone the Solicitor was instructed to
communicato with tho representatives of
both coal companies and also the Borough
Council to arrange for a meeting and havo
tbo nuisance abated.
Tho report of tho Hoalth OUlcor contained
a list of 15 nuisances which wore abated.
Health Ollicor Conry then lodged com
plaint against Georgo Leitzol tor continuing
tho occupation of scavenger in tho borough,
without receiving his license Uy motion of
tho Hoard Mr. Conry was instructed to In
stitute criminal proceedings against Leitzol
for violating tho rulos and regulations of
the Hoard of Health and also tho borough
ordinances.
A lengthy discussion theu followed on tho
West Centro street sowor muddle, which was
participated in by all tho members present. It
terminated by tho Health Ollicor receiving
instructions to push tho executions which
have already been issued against tho property
owners.
Undor the head of now business President
Spaldlug referred to tho vaccination of school
children as the school term will shortly opou.
Ho also suggested that all tho parochial
schools and other privato institutions bo com
pelled to havo their scholars vaccinated. A
motion to that ell'cct was passed and tho
secretary was instructed to notify ail tho
superintendents to enforco tho rules. Dr.
Spalding was tbon unanimously elected

The meeting was then adjourned.
