As a further mark of respect tho senate adjourned.... Tho members of tho house listened with rapt attention to tho presi dent's inessaso and at tho conclusion there was an enthusiastic demonstration on thu republican side.

Tho speaker appointed a commltteo and then, iih a further mark of respect, tho house adjourned.

Senator Hoar (Mass.) said the dllllculty was that assassins of kings and rulers always gloried In their crimes and wero In no wise deterred by tho fear of punish ment. Tho most effoctlvo remedy, ho suggested, would be to have tho civilized nations of the world ngreo upon somo desolate spot on the earth's surface to which all anarchists who upheld assas sination or tho overthrow of govern ment should bo transported. In such a community tho anarchist could carry out his theories of living without a govern ment and the world would bo rid of his presence. Senator Penroso (Pa.)

Ho Snyn, Aro Amlgo nnd Fo Alike In tho Self-Sumo Hour Mili tary Condition In thu Inland Summed Up. Washington, Dec. 7. The war de partment yesterday made public tho first annual report of Maj. Gen. Chaf fee, milltury governor of the Philip pine islands. Gen. Chnffce slims up the situation in the Philippines from a military point of view by stating that the provinces of Untnngns and Lngunu, in 7aioii, and the islands of Samiir, Mindoro, Cebu and llohol constitute the area now disturbed by nny embodied force of insurgents, lie suys that to tho physical charac ter of the country, to the nature of the warfare of the rebels, who are amigo and foe in the self same hour, to the humanity of the troops, which is taken advantage of by the rebels and the inhabitants who sympathize with them, and to the fear of assas sination on the part of tlio friendly disposed if they give information to the American forces, is due the pro longation of the guerrilla warfare. Gen. Chaffee recommends that there be no further material reduc tion of troops before January, 1003. On the subject of the military gov ernment of tlio city of Manila, Gen. Chaffee says: "In the government of Manila for three years, if tlic mil itary have done nothing more, it is everywhere apparent thst an excel lent foundation has been laid and a turbulent and hostile community brought to observe the laws and in dividually be orderly; this has been done without undue harshness or se verity of treatment of the inhab itants." In anticipation of a partial concen tration of the troops in the Philip pines next year Gen. Chaffee submits estimates of cost for the construc tion of quarters and barracks. Gen. Chaffee devotes a good part of his report to the terrible disns tcr which befell company C, Ninth in fnntry, at Ualangiga, Saninr, and which, he sajs, was "largely due to over confidence in assumed pacified conditions and in a people, who, to a great extent ns yet, are strangers to nnd unnpprcciative of our humane and personal liberty beliefs and ac tions." American soldiers, he says, fail to discriminate between real and assumed friendship on the part of tlio Filipinos. PUSHING CANAL TREATY.
