MANILA, Feb. 2&. Alt tho Spanish mili

been ordered, through tho Spanish consul
general, Honor Marina, to return to Spain.
There aro probably seventy of these olllcers,
who on account of business Interests, were
permitted ta remain in tho Islands after
tho Spanish troops wero sent home. They
received a salary from the Spanish govern
ment. A band of seventy armed Insurgents at
tacked tho town of Suog, In tho provl.'i :o
ut South Uocoh, I.iuon, whero they killed
one native nnd abducted live. At midnight
of tho snmo day they attacked the town of
Santa Maria, burt.lng fifty houses.
The Insurgents wcro repulsed by the
Americans, who had ono man wounded; one
natlvn scout and two civilians woro killed.
The Insurgents rutren'cd to tho mountains
closely pursued; their losses wcro not
learned.
Tho projectors of tho conservative party
have asked tho American Philippines com
mission to Inspect their platform, but Judge
Tntt postponed action In tho matter until
Tuesday. They subsequently visited Oun
eral MacArthur and outlined to him their
program, saying that tho ultlmnto views of
the parly would bo submitted later and
would In no way conflict with the principle
of American sovereignty.
General MaeArthur responded that any
Philippine, party, under the present cir
cumstances, should hnvo tbo establishment
of ppacn throughout tho Island for its
primary object and advised the avoiding
of the discussion of other political prin
ciples until peace should be declared. Hn
said tho situation today did not permit

"Mr. Morgan Is the organizer of these two
mammoth combinations of capital," writes

apolis Press, "and though be acts as the
ugent or broker, he iIoch not hesitate to

March magazines which have been coming
to band this week are generally attractive
In appearan:o and their contents ate equally
good, as will bo fount! from examination.
Besides the usual (lotion there are a large
number of Interesting and Instructive arti
cles on general topics, travel, biographical,
hlstorlcnl, scientific, etc.
Almost every part of the globe Is repre
sented lu Scrlbncr's Magazine for March,
and In every case by some well-known
writer who has actually visited the country
which he describes. Tour of the contrib
utors Are distinguished correspondents who
have had many romantic experiences. Their
articles In this number have to do with the
changing conditions brought about by re
cent upheavals. Klchard Harding Davis
leads the number with an account of a
Journey "Along tho Kast Coast of Africa,"
stopping at those strange, half-barbaric and
hnlf -civilized porta that mark the fringe of
progress In Africa. Thomas F. Millard,
whoso previous articles on the "Armies In
China nnd tho Campaign of Hevcngo" have
attracted so much nttcntlon, contributes to
this number a concluding article on "The
Settlement In China." Henry .Norman's
Russian artlclo In this number Is of unusual
timeliness In that It deals with tho per
tonality and tho achievements of tho great
est administrator In Russia, tho famous
minister of finance, M. de Wltte. Allied to
all these articles which show the political
changes Is an Illuminating paper on "Tho
Transformation of tho Map (1825-1900)," by
Joseph Sohn. Tho comparative maps, pre
pared under tho author's direction, show at
a glanco tho tremendous changes of tho
last century.
The March number of Frank Lesllo's
Popular Monthly will be very generally
regarded as the best Issue In the history of
the magazine. We can remember no better
number. A striking article. "Farther North
Than Nanscn," gives the first ndequato ac
count that has appeared on this sldo of the
water of tho heroic dash for tho polo which
has placed tho name of Abruzzl at the head
of tho list of Arctic explorers. Everybody
who remembers Nanscn's wonderful story
will read with eagerness of this yet more
mnrvclous exploit. Tho talo Is full of the
keenest liumnn Interest nnd shows what
men may attain when energy Is directed by
method and courage matched with skill.
The World's Work for March touches
every continent, has something new to soy
on practically every general topic of In
terest, sketches the men who aro doing
some of the great things, In fact retails
everything that the world has dono well
during tho last month. The mngazlno lives
up to Its name In its variety, and then
vivifies the workaday world with keen,
progressive, American spirit. Tbo list of
contonts Is too long to be entirely detailed,
but some of the most important articles
arc: "Tho Rule of tho English-Speaking
Folk," (the race that rules on every con
tinent but one) as viewed at tho closo of
the Victorian era; n strikingly fine story of
the work of old St. George's parUh, New
York, by Mr. Jacob Rlls; Intimately per
sonal sketches of General Dcwet, Alfred
Harmsworth and tho late Philip Armour.
Next fall there will bo observed In Eng
land very extensively the thousandth an
niversary of the death of King Alfred. A
movement Is nlso under way In America to
participate In this celebration, and cortalnly
Americans are equal sharers In what Sir
Walter nesant calls "The Heritage of King
Alfred." In an article with this title,
printed In tho March magazine number of
the Outlook, Sir Walter pays an earnest
tribute to the achievements of Alfred In
establishing Inw, clearing the land of evil
and encouraging scholarship and tho arts.
Tho March Modern Culture opens with
a charmingly written and beautifully
Illustrated article on the "Social and
Domestic Lifo of the Modern Greek," by
R. F. Fisher, In which tho author com
pares the character, customs and achieve
ments of the Greeks with those of the
Italians of our day, and draws a picture
much to tho advantage of tho former.
Threo short Illustrated articles follow on:
"The Chinese Quarter of San Francisco,"
"Two Features of German University
Life" and "Sugar Making the Festival of
Spring," In which the variety of subjects
is accentuated by dissimilarity of style and
treatment. Marlon Harland In tho third In
stallment of "In Our County," describes
"An Episode of a Summer at tho Spa,"
drawing with vigorous pen-strokes a picture
of llfo at a Virginia watering place full
of subtle shadings and emphatic contrasts.
Tho March number of tho Smart Set
openB with a novcletto by Mrs. Burton Har
rison, entitled "The Unwelcome Mrs.
Hatch." This is perhaps the strongest and
1 most dramatic story Mrs, Harrison has
a Kind
Insist In having a share In tho general
prosperity.
"Many of the boldest men In tho street
havo confessedly lost their heads. Mr.
Morgan, for example, nets In his office

From salesman In n country store at $3
n week to tho presidency of the greatest
steel manufacturing concern In tho world,
with a salary unparalleled In the business
world and about $50,000,000 In stocks and
bonds, Is the record of Charles M. Schwab,
who Is tho head of the new $1,000,000,000
Steel trust formed by J. Pierpont Morgan.
Carnegie and others, All this came within
less than twenty yenrs.
In Williamsburg, lllalr county, Pa., Mr.
Schwab was born Februnry 18, 18112. Ten
years later tho Schwab family moved to
Loretto, on tho crest of tho Alleghany
mountains, where "Charley" was sent to
a college thoro. Ho fancied engineering
nnd took i scientific course. At the ago of
18 ho left tho institution to mako his liv
ing and eamo to Braddock, where some
friends from Loretto had located. Ho ob
tained employment in Dinkey's general
store, which was not far from tho Cnrncglo
Bteel works.
Past tho storo on his way to and from
the mills came Captain William R. Jones,
nt tho tlmo general mnnager of the works.
Ho stopped In the storo to buy tobacco
and noticed young Schwab, The latter
seized tho opportunity of acquaintance with
Captain Jones and tho latter oftered him a
position.
In 1881 Schwab was msdo chief engineer
and assistant manngcr of the Braddock fur
naco and steel works, and held the plaro
until 18S7, when ho was sent over to Home
stead as superintendent. He was thcro

Thcodcre Roosevelt, vhe president-elect of

"Disbanding the Union Army" Is the title
of an article by Ida M. Tarbell. This fully
describe the extraordinary feat accom
plished by tho federal government, at th
close of the civil war, when, without any
disaster, 1,000.000 soldiers wero returned to
quiet pursuits. The article Is elaborately
Illustrated.
"The Anecdotal Bide of Theodore Roose
velt" gives sharp, clear views of the stren
uous life of our many-sided vice president
elect In the March toadies' Home Journal.
Theso anecdotes reveal the characteristics
of his remarkable personality, and aro
freshly told by his closest friends. The
witching "Widow and Her Friends" of
Charles Dana Gibson's creation are vivified
Into stage personages and Introduced In a
two-act comedy by Marguerite Mcrlngton
a Gibson play with Gibson men and women
and Gltson Illustrations. "The Only Ameri
can Girl Who Ever Married a King" recalls
the almost forgotten romance of a New
England girl who came near to wearing a
crown, and "The Loveliest of All Kentucky
Girls" recounts the social triumphs of a
southern beauty. Edward Rok writes on
topics of widespread Interest nnd Helen
Wntterson Moody discusses "Girls Who 'Go
In' for Something."
The February issue of Cram's Magazine
contains a number of articles of the sort
that ono having read puts away for future
reference. Among these may specially bo
noted "Our Useful Conifers," by Prof.
Charles E. Aaron; a brief but graphic his
tory of "William III of England," by Mil
ton Reeve: it very clear and entertaining
account of tho bloodless "Toledo War." by
E. F. Watrous; a number of little known
points regarding "Edward VII of Orcat Brit
ain," by Spencer Townsend, au,d some In
teresting statistics regarding tho "Growth
of Churches In the Nineteenth Century."
Tho Improvement noted lu recent num
bers of Everybody's Magazlno Is still more
conspicuous in tho 'March Issue. This Is a
flrst-rato magazine, brimful of Individuality,
containing remarkably strong stories and
articles of distinct Interest and readablo
ness. Among the 10-cent monthlies It is
rapidly forging to the front, ana ft bids
fair to contest the supremacy of Us moBt
widely circulated contemporaries.
Two contributions of Immediate Interest
In Alnslee's for March aro "Tho Mlles-Cor-bln
Feud," by 1 A. Co'otldgo, nnd "Yellow
Journals." by Allen Sangree. The first of
theso Is n remarkably frank account of the
long-continued friction lp' the War depart
ment. Tho artlclo ,on , '-'Yellow Journals"
tells how theso papers are made, and alms
to explain why they nro made as they are.
"Uruguay's Progressive Ruler," by Douglas
White, Is a portrait study of Cuestas, who
Is a unlquo exception among South Ameri
can presidents. "Tho Decay of Manners,"
by John Gilmer Speed, Is an earnest pro
test In exceedingly readable form against
the dccllno of American politeness. "Somo
After-Dlnner Humorists," by George Barry
Mallon. Is an anecdotal sketch of the best
after-dinner speakers, with enjoyable ex
amples from their speeches.
Tho March number of the Woman's Home
Companion has many features of more than
ordinary Interest. Some of them that will
prove very Interesting are "Father John, the
Greek Miracle Worker," by Edward Pago
Gaston; "Tbo Goddess of Excelsior," by
Bret Harte; "A Great Athletic Club for
Both Soxes," by Bertha Damarls Knobej
"America's Greatest Social Function," by
Waldon Fawcett; "The Most Richly Fur
nished Homo In America," by Haryot Holt
Cahoon. The fiction In this number Is
especially strong, being contributed by such
authors as John Kendrlck Bangs, Mrs.
Spofford and Bret Harto. 1 The art features
arc decidedly superior to anything that has
heretofore appeared In a magazine. There
Is a magnificent reproduction of Sir Lau
rence Alma-Tadoma's great painting, "Tho
Village Festival," besides fine paintings by
W. Frank Calderon, Herman Kaulbach, Karl
Gustav Hellqvtst and J. Clemtnson.
"Tho Balloonist" Is the hero of Cleve
land MoffettV third paper on "Careers of
Danger and Daring," which appears In the
J. Pierpont Morgan, Charles Schwab
and Charles T. Yerkes.
Schwab, who had been elected a member
of the board of managers of the company
the preceding yenr, was chosen president.
At that tlmo II. C. Frlck was chairman
of the bonrd of directors and the active
head of the company. When Frlck left
Mr. Schwab was given the chairman's
duties. He filled them so successfully that
when tho business was reorganized last
spring Schwab was elected president of
tho Carnegie company, the capital stock
oT which has been Increased to $160,000,000
Schwab lives on a property for which
ho paid $175,000 cash. He Is married, but
has no children.
Charles T. Yerkes, boss of the Chicago
Street railway lines and ownor of the Chi
cago Inter Ocean, has disposed of his in
tcrest in the former property and to all
Intents has shaken tho dust and soot of
Chicago from his brogans, carrying his pile
to New York. The career of Yerkes Is
thus summarized by tho Chronicle:

the Infancy and early childhood of her own
daughter, Marie, who was born within th!
Arctic Circle, and revisited her birthplace
on Lieutenant Peary's voyage after the
monster metcorlto ho had discovered.
Fiction readers will turn first, in the
March Century, to the opening pages of a
new story by Irving Bacheller, author of
tho record-breaking "Eben Holden." The
title Is "D'rl and I," the general theme Is
American border life at the time of tho
war of 181? and the leading characters are
Colonel Raymon Bell, U. S. A., a south
erner, and Darius, a typical Yankee. Con
tinuing his Webster series. Prof. McMaster
considers this month his hero's experience
as a leader of the opposition In congress.
It will surprise most readers of the Century
to learn that the flight of tho empress
dowager from Pekln did not occur till the
city was actually In tho hands of the
"foreign devils." It was on August 15 that
she, with the emperor, empress nnd heir
apparent, set forth, each In a separate cart,
toward Tal Yuan Fu. Luella Miner, an
American missionary, who describes this
heglra, has drawn her Information from a
hitherto unpublished account written by a
Chinese gontleman of high standing whose
authority Is unimpeachable. As .a com
panion paper to this may bo taken Bishop
Potter's "Impressions of Japan," the third
of his series on the "East of Today nnd
Tomorrow." This Is quite as Incisive nnd
suggestive as the articles on "China and
the Philippines," which preceded It.
The March Atlantic prints a vigorous edi
torial call upon the president to "Give the
Country the Facts" about the Philippines;
Henry B. F. Macfarland, tho famous Wash
ington representative of tho Boston Herald,
contributes a striking analysis of "Mr. Mc
Ktnley as President." Woodrow Wilson
discusses "Democracy and Efficiency" can
our democracy hold Its own against the
present reaction towards monarchy? W. E.
B. Dn Bols writes Instructively concerning
"The Freedmen's Bureau:" J. W. Root dis
cusses tthe lessons of "British Confedera
tion; W. C. Dreher In "A Letter from Ger

that nation; J. B. Thayer sketches "John
Marshall," our famous supreme court chief
Justice. Mrs. Wlggln and Miss Jewett con
tinue tholr attractive serials; Roy R. Gil
son, Charles B. Loomls, Dora L. Hastings
nnd others contribute lively stories and
sketches; Edith Thomas, R. U. Johnson and
William P. Foster add attractive poems, and
a brilliant contributors' club and the At
lantic's farewell tribute to Queen Victoria
round out a notable number.
Lincoln's famous phrase, "Of the people,
by the people and for the people," ascribed
by Mr. George F. Parker In the February
Review of Reviews to Thomas Cooper, an
eighteenth century writer, does not seem to
have been peculiar to any ono writer or
speaker. In the March Revlow nre pub
lished several suggestions from correspond
ents, each of whom bints at a separate
possible source of the form of words In
question. Judge Story nnd Daniel Webster
nro two authorities cited as employing very
nearly the same Ideas, In similar phrase
ology. A letter from Mr. John White Chad
wick, however, seems to prove conclusively
that Lincoln got the phrase from one of
Theodoro Parker's anti-slavery addresses.
Parker wrote: "Democracy Is direct self
government, over all tho people, by all the
people, for all the people." William II.
Ilerndon, Lincoln's law partner, says that
Lincoln read and marked this passage with
a pencil.
