AT PIfM
Oar Commissioner Returns From
His Philippines Tour.
AN ENTIEELY HOPEFUL VIEW
OT tho Condition K.vltt Inic In tlm
Southern I1hiiiN The I'eoplo I)i N'ot
With to J'litht Public SohooN of
Mnnlln Opened,
Manila, July 3. Frofemor J. G.
Schurman. of the Unltwl State ad
visory commission for the Philippines,
returned to Manila yesterday from a
three weeks' tour of the southern
Islands. He takes an entirely hopeful
view of the general conditions there.
Tbe Intelligent aud substantial citi
zens desire an American protectorate.
The masses are awaiting the settle
ment of the war In the Island of Luzon
before declaring themselves. They are
chiefly anxious to be undisturbed. The
president of the town ot Santo Nicolas,
In the Island of Cebu, said to Mr.
Schurman: "We want peace, food and
prosperity. Wo do not wish to fight.
Wo would be neutral."
Tho president ot the commission
thinks this declaration fairly expresses
the sentiments of the people In the
southern Islands of the archipelago.
Many of the towns there are In the
hands of small bands ot Tagalos, and
the people fear to endorse American
rule until they are certain thnt Aguln
aldo must bo beaten. Let them once
bo convinced of this, and tho allegi
ance ot tho southern Islands, Mr
Schurman thinks, enn be secured by
diplomacy.
Mr. Schurman traversed the Island
of Negros with Colonol Smith and a
party of natives. In several of the
principal towns he was tendered ban
quets, and he had an hour's confer
ence with the young sultan of Sulu,
who received him In the royal audi
ence chamber, surrounded by a body
guard of flerco looking Moros.
Mr. Schurman told the sultan that
the United States had acquired the
sovereignty of tho Philippines from
Spain, but had no wish to subjugate
the population nor to Interfere with
their customs or religion. On the
contrary, the great desire of tho Amer
ican government was to help the peo
ple of tho lslandB to develop their
country. Tho sultan replied that he
earnestly desired peace, and was anxi
ous to continue the existing treaties.
On the return voyage the president
of the commission visited tho town of
Borneo, capital of British North Bor
neo, where he was cordially received
by tbe British ocffllals, who afforded
him every facility In his study of the
local government and the customs of
the people. The population he found
much like that of the southern Philip
pine Islands. Tho government Is rather
in an elementary state, but a more
complete organization Is being de
veloped as rapidly as Is practicable.
Today the public schools In Manila
opened, and thero are 5,000 children In
attendance. Tho teachers Include
Americans, Spaniards and FilIIno3.
English will be taught one hour a day.
One of the Instructors Is tho widow of
the FIIIpluo patriot. Dr. Rlzal. who
prepared the statutes of the Philippine
league, anu wno, when about to board
a steamer at Barcelona In the autumn
of 189C, was arrested by the Spanish
authorities and sent to Manila, where
he was tried by court martial on a
charge of having organized the upris
ing in the Philippines, sentenced to
death, and shot on Dec. 29 of that
year. After her husband's execution
Mrs. Rlzal, who Is the stepdaughter ot
a retired Hong Kong gentleman, went
to imus and was chosen captain ot a
company of Insurgents.
Almost every steamer brings mis
sionaries. The arrival of ono In Cebu
made no little trouble, as the report
spread rapidly among the Ignorant
classes that the Americans Intended
to compel them to give up their
churches. The American authorities,
in the interests of harmony, requested
him to withdraw and he complied.
Senor Llorente. who is considered
the most Influential native in Cebu,
said to Mr. Schurman: "I like the
American Idea of the separation of
church and state, but I think it would
bo unwise to introduce Protestantism
while conditions are so unsettled."
The rain has fallen almost contin
uously for nine days. It has been a
tremendous downpour, and tho whole
country Is flooded. The trenches at
San Fernando are ditches of water.
and the mud Is knee deep in the tem
porary camps at several of the outlying
towns. Some of the permanent camps
nave ueen maue fairly comfortable bv
tho erection of bamboo shelters, rooted
and floored.
