JULY 4TH IS THE DATE CIVEN Cabinet Decide* to Take Thia Step When Philippines Bill 8hall Have Passed—Other Matters Under Con sideration. WASHINGTON, D. C„ June ?8.—At the meeting of the cabinet yesterday the terms of an amnesty proclamation to the Filipinos, which It Is contem plated to Issue on the Fourth of July, were agreed upon. The war depart ment for some time past has had un der consideration the draft of a proc lamation and has found It necessary to make a number of changes In Its text. In its modified state It was agreed to by the cabinet and Secretary Root will cable it to Acting Governor Wright for his Inspection. If It meets the hitter's approval nothing will re main hut for the president, If the Philippine civil government bill Is a luw on that day, as 1h now expected It will he, to Issue on Independence IJay a formal proclamation setting forth terms of amnesty for all political of fenders In the islands, Including Agolnuldo and those held at Guam. The proclamation Is based upon the general objects of the Philippine gov ernment bill, namely, to restore peace In the archipelago and substitute a civil for a milliard administration. The proclamation will declare that a state of peace now exists In Ihe Phil ippine Islands save In the parts of the archipelago where the Mlnandao or Pagan tribes are giving the United* States a great amount of trouble, and will declare In effect that, with the transfer of the government of the archipelago from a military to a civil Hiatus, all those arrested and hold for political offenses shall bo restored to liberty, granted full amnesty and allowed to participate In the civil government that 1b to bo Inaugurated In the islands. While the proclamation la subject to changes In text, the general language of the document la pretty well mapped out, _ .. ... . UIOIUODIUI1 Ui the treatment that should bo accorded the political prisoners of tho Islands. There Is no Intention, It la stated, to release those convicted of other than political offenses, tho benefits of the amnesty being limited to those hi custody as a result of breaches of mil itary law, leuvlng criminal offenders to the action of the proper authorities under the coming civil government. Tho purpose Is to demonstrate that motives of humanity and generosity dictate our course toward the Phil ippines. When tho Islands are turned over to the civil authorities they will not he left without adequate military protection, as no more troops will be ordered home for tho present and ev ery precaution will be taken for the military safeguarding of the Islands under the new civil administration. Another subject under consideration at the cabinet meeting was the nego tiations for the purchase of the friars' lands In tho Philippines. Secretary Root took with him to the meeting all the correspondence which has pass ed between himself and Governor Taft while the latter has been carrying on negotiations at Rome. It Is under stood that Secretary Root feels great confidence In a successful outcome of Governor Taft's efforts. The cabinet meeting was held In the president's temporary quarters on I,a fa.votte square and was the first time In eighty-eight years that a regular session of the cabinet has been held outside the white house.

Venezuelan Government Force* Are Again Defeated. PORT OF SPAIN, Island of Trini dad, June 28.—The Venezuelan gov ernment forces have been defeated again near Urlca, in the state of Cu manla, by the rear guard of General Mato’s revolutionary army. Deserters and fugitives are entering Cumania and Barcelona by the hun dreds. Among them is Garido, son of the war minister. The new disaster complicates General Castro’s position In Barcelona, the headquarters of President Castro’s largest army. Gen eral Velutinl, the chief commander, quarrels daily with General Castro (who Is a brother of the president), and he will abandon the command. The situation Is more than critical. The government is compelling Im porters at Carupano to pay again the duties collected on goods received during the late occupation of the town by the revolutionists. The first pay ment was made to the revolutionists, which causes a new diplomatic Inci dent. The United States vice consul, Juan A. tirsint, has left Carupano for Trin idad. His life was dally menaced by soldiers for having tried to protect the interests of French citizens, he being also consul for France. KING ABLE TO SMOKE.

In fact, King Edward’s doctors are in clined to regard the patient’s pain and bis appetite as healthy symptoms, al though with the resorve they have maintained throughout they refrain from commenting thereon.

H. Thompson. The suggestion was acted upon, and Mr. Thompson was nominated by an overwhelming vote, which, on motion of a Douglas candidate was made unanimous. THE CANDIDATES. ■W. H.

GRAND ISLAND, June 26.—The platform of the Nebraska populists as adopted affirms the Omaha, St Louis and Sioux Falls platforms, pledges re duction of freight rates by 15 per cent in certain specified articles, promises higher taxation of railroads, includ ing franchises; pledges the enact ment of the initiative and referendum, full employers’ liability, making black listing a crime, issuing free transpor tation a misdemeanor; favors liberal appropriations for the State univer sity, favors employment of convict labor in manufacturing binding twine, condemns the pardon of Bartley and favors a board of pardons and In dulges in congratulation on the last fusion state administration. The important planks on railroad issues are: : “We pledge our party to enact a maximum freight rate law reducing rates on live stock, hay, grain and mill products 15 per cent and prohib iting any increase on other commod ities. We will reduce passenger rates to 2% cents per mile. Based upon present assessed valuation of all property, we will increase the as sessed valuation of the railroad prop erty of this state from $26,000,000 to at least $40,000,000. The franchise of public service corporations are justly subject to taxation the same as tan gible property and whatever a prop erty is worth for the purpose of sale and income it is also worth as a basis of taxation. We pledge our repre sentatives in the next legislature to enact a law making it unlawful and a misdemeanor to give or accept trans portation from railroad companies, except to shippers of livestock and railroad employes.” A separate reso lution against tearing down the fences unlawfully erected by the cattle syn dicates and favoring a land-leasing law also recommended by the resolu tions committee was sent to the Sixth district convention. FROM THE KING’S BEDSIDE. The Ruler’s Condition as Favorable as Could Be Expected. LONDON, June 26.—Reports indi cate that while the condition of King Edward is as favorable as might be looked for, he is still far from being out of danger, and that even though he should recover from the effects of the present operation, he will be an invalid for a long time. He passed a restful night, recovering well from the effects of the anesthetic, and the morning bulletin from the surgeons said that the signs were such as to give hope. It is admitted that until the wound has progressed to the point where the drainage tubes can be withdrawn that no definite hope of recovery can be encouraged, for there is always the danger of peritonitis, of hemmorrhage or of other complica tions. All preparations for the coronation have been abandoned, save the illum inations of London and the bonfires which had been laid on 300 hills throughout the kingdom. These will be left, with a view to celebrating the king’s recovery, if possible. London is still much confused by the unexepected turn of affairs and all departments of city and govern ment administration are congested by the rush of work incidental to the change in program. It Is rumored in London that the king wishes to be crowned in the bed room and that the procession of Fri day be carried out without him, but it is not likely that this step will be taken. His majesty’s chief concern is about the disappointment of the people who had arranged to witness the coronation spectacle. Hard Blow Strikes Tyndall, TYNDALL, S. D., June 26.—A Windstorm struck this city near mid night, doing much damage.
