States Philippine commission last
night gave one of the most brilliant
balls Manila has ever seen. It was
one of a series of entertainments in
tended to foster friendship between the
Americans and the natives. The com
mission has the handsomest residence
in Manila, overlooking the harbor. The
grounds surrounding it were Illumin
ated, while the house itself was decor
ated with the American colors. The
newly appointed judges, General Otis,
a number of other American officers
and many wealthy natives were pres
ent. There was a display of gorgeous
native toilets and many Jewels were
worn and the array of handsome wo
men surprised the Americans. There
was a long program of American and
Filipino dances, followed by the ren
dering of several instrumental selec
tions. closing with “The Star Spangled
Banner.”
United States Senator Albert J. Bev
eridge of Indiana, who came to the
Philippines some time ago, has made
a fortnight's trip in the southern is
lands, visiting Iloilo, Negros and Cebu.
During his tour he talked with the
chief of Jolo, who has 2,000 fighting
men under his command and who pro
fesses friendship for America, which
friendship he hinted might bestrength
ened by the continuance of the annual
(subsidy of $12,000 formerly paid by
the Spaniards. Senator Beveridge will
leave here on Saturday. He intends
to travel In China.
General Smith has punished the in
surgents at Escalante Island of Ne
irros, for the murder of Captain Tilley
of the signal corps, who was fired upon

he landed. General Smith burned the
town and killed a number of bands of
insurgents whom he found In the

I* Favornlile
WASHINGTON, June T —M e con
tingent of the war department which
Is in favor of quick action and a speedy
end to the oriental caropnign even at
a large expenditure la chafing at delay
The utindr.istration ad vie-a from Prof
Schurmann of the Philippine commis
sion have been uniformly optimistic
and it is understood that further ad
vices of the same tenor were received
today.
It is said there is no difficulty in
putting into Manila any number of
troops this government may elect to
send. The war department h->s a
large and well equipped fleet of trans
ports, both in the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans. Several of these are already
un the way to Manila with regulars
and can he promptly returned and sent
with fresh forces if necessary. The
prospect now is, however, that the ac
tive campaign in Luzon is finicheu till
.the end of ihc miny season.
'Coincident with the withdrawal of
the volunteer troops in the Philippines
Brigadier Generals Hale, Smith and
Funston will be relieved from further
duty in that country and ordered home
for muster out. It was to meet this
prospective reduction in the number
of general officers serving In the Phil
ippines that Brigadier Generals Bates,
Grant, Young and Schwan were order
ed to that country.

WEST UNITES ON HENDERSON.
Hopkin* Withdraw* from Speakership
Contest In lownn'e Favor
CHICAGO, June 3.—Congressman A.
J. Hopkins this afternoon withdrew
from the national speakership contest
in favor of Colonel D. B. Henderson
of Iowa. Nine of the fourteen con
gressmen in the Illinois delegation
were present at the general round-up
meeting held in the Grand Pacific hotel
this afternoon. After four hours' dis
cussion behind closed doors it was
decided to withdraw Mr. Hopkins'
name and support Colonel Henderson.
The conference was perfectly har
monious. Mr. Hopkins made the fol
lowing statement:
“I have had a full conference with
the Illinois republican delegation in
congress today and the situation of
the speakership contest was fully dis
cussed, Including the action of our
neighboring states in declaring for
Colonel Henderson of Iowa.
1 My colleagues and I recognize the
great responsibilities devolving upon
the Fifty-sixth congress and the neces
sity of perfect harmony in the repub
lican party. To further prolong my
candidacy, whether successful or un
successful, it is thought might result
in embarrassment to the successful
candidate in the proper administration
of his great office.
“Believing as I do that my retire
ment from the speakership race at
this time will simplify the situation
and conduce to harmony in the party
with consequent best results to the
whole country, I have, with the ap
proval of the Illinois delegation, de
cided to withdraw from the speaker
ship contest.
“After my withdrawal and further
conference by the delegation it was
decided to support Colonel Henderson's
candidacy for the speakership, in
which action I fully concur.
“My withdrawal and the subsequent
action of the Illinois delegation were
hail without any consultation with
Colonel Henderson or any of his sup
porters and without his or their
knowledge.”
At the conclusion of the conference
Mr. Hopkins sent the following tele
gram to Colonel Henderson at Du
buque. Ia.: “I have decided to with
draw from the speakership contest and
• he Illinois delegation has determined
to support your candidacy. I wish yoi
every success.”
Sherman Mill In the Karr,
SYRACUSE, N. Y.. June 3.—The
Post-Standard will tomorrow print
the following signed statement from
Representative Sherman.
UTICA. N. Y., June 2., 1899.—An
swering your request for a statement J
in reference to the speakership contest,
accompanied by your statement that
Mr. Hopkins of Illinois had withdrawn
in favor of Mr. Henderson and that the
Illinois delegation had decided to vote
as a unit for Mr. Henderson, 1 have
only to say that, assuming both state
ments to be correct and that the entire
Illinois delegation had decided to fol
low Mr. Hopkins to Mr. Henderson
(and both statements are only as
sumed). also that Mr. Henderson has
the entire Wisconsin and Indiana dele
gations, also certain support in other
state, Kansas, Dakota and elsewhere, '
he is still over twenty votes short of
a majority of the republican member
ship of the Fifty-sixth congress.
Unless a current report with refer- 1
cnee to Ohio is corrert, I have not j
lost the support of a single member
upon whom I counted. Mr. Henderson
is not yet selected as the republican
choice for speaker.
So far as I am concerned. I have
striven to eliminate sectionalism from
the friendly contest. Whoever is chos
en speaker it will be unfortunate if
the selection be based upon sectional
lines, or be, even remotely, the result
j of any promises or deals. I am cer- ;
i talnly still a candidate. I simply state
broadly that I am in accord with my
i party and with the administration.

WASHINGTON, June 3.—The cabi

there was no present necessity for the
enlistment of volunteers.
Tin* situation was gone over at the
cabinet meeting very fully before th's
conclusion was reached. The presi
dent stands ready at uny time it may
appear necessary to authorize the on

men be deemed necessary, although
hoping thut such a contingency may
not arise General Otia is to tie given
the 30,000 men for whom he asked.
The additional 3,000 or 6,000 troops
to make up the 30.000 are to be taken
from the regulars now serving In

TWO PUNS THAT APE IN VIEW
■Souse Troop* Might be Spared from Culm
and Porto Klro, or Volunteer* to the
Number of 141.000 Culled For.
WASHINGTON. June 2.—Replying
to the Inquiries of the secretary of war
General Otis telegraphs that he is still
of the opinion that 30,000 troops will
be necessary for the effective control
of the Philippines.
Secretary Alger took General Otis’
cablegram to the president and after
a conference with him stated that the
text of the dispatch would not be made
public, as it contained other matters
besides an answer to his inquiry of yes
terday.
“It reaffirms General Otis’ estimate
made some time ago.” said the secre
tary. “that 30.000 men would be suffi
cient to cope with the situation. As I
stated yesterday the regulars now on
the way or under orders to go to the
Philippines will give General Otis
about 24.000 or 25,000 men after the
withdrawal of the volunteers.’’
“Where will the additional 5.000 or
6.000 men for whom General Otis asks
come from?” the secretary was ask
ed.
"That has not been definitely deter
mined as yet,” he replied. "We may lie
able to take the additional regulars
now located in this country, Cuba and
Porto Rico, or it may be found advisa
ble to muster in volunteers.”
“In case it is decided to call for
volunteers will the call only be for
the 5.000 or 6,000 men necessary to
bring General Otis' total up to 30,000?”
“If volunteers are called for,” replied
the bpi retary, "the call will proba
bly be for 10,000 men.”

PHILADELPHIA, June 2.—The fea
ture of today's session of the general
assembly of the United Presbyterian
church was the report of the committee
of reform. After discussing Sunday
desecration the report considered the
temperance quest.on, and a resolution
was adopted designating November 4
as a Sunday on which the ministers
should preach on temperance. Before
presenting his memorial to be submit
ted to President McKinley opposing
the army canteen Judge J. M. McCul
loch of Iowa declared that Attorney
General Griggs’ interpretation cf that
law was an insult to the profession ot
law in America and that his decision
was the most outrageous one ever sub
mitted since the Dred Scott decision.
The judge also criticised Secretary
Alger in scathing words for his atti
tude in the matter. The memorial
caused a more heated debate than any
other question before the assembly.
The memorial was finally adopted. A
memorial was adopted asking the na
tional house of representatives to re
fuse to seat Representative-elect Rob
erts of Utah.
Chicago was decided upon as the
next place of meeting.

MILEAGE DUE VOLUNTEERS.
War Department Compute* Difference
Itetween Mueterlng Out at Home
and San Francisco.
WASHINGTON, June 1.—Secretary
Alger haa caused the quartermaster
general to make a careful computation
j of the mileage which the Philippine
volunteers from each state would be
entitled to should they be mustered
out at San Francisco and has attached
to the statement a schedule of the rail
road rates that each man would be re
quired to pay out of his pocket in the
event that he elected to take the travel
allowance.
The information was embodied In the
shape of a message which was cabled
today to General Otis, as follows:
"Volunteers mustered out at San
Francisco will receive travel pay ap
proximately as follows: Men of com
panies, Colorado, $59 to $95; Idaho,
$51 to $81: Iowa. $82 to $130; Kansas,
$83 to $131; Montana, $53 to $84: Ne
braska. $74 to $117; Nevada, $55 to
$87; North Dakota, $86 to $136; Ore
gon. $32 to $51; Pennsylvania. $127 to
$201; South Dakota. $82 to $130; Ten
nessee, $107 to $169; Ctah, $36 to $57;
Washington, $39 to $62; Wyoming, $55
to $87; Minnesota, $89 to $142.
"Of course the higher sums are
graded among the non-commissioned
officers. Railroad fares are; San
Francisco to St. Louis and Fargo, $43;
Chicago, $44; Washington and Phila
delphia. $59; New York, $60; SaP,
Lake, 24; Lincoln and Topeka. $37;
Des Moines, $40; Sioux Falls, $41;
Cheyenne and Denver, $35; not includ
ing subsistence. Officers, of course, get
larger sums. Submit these facts to
each regiment and let them determine
by vote whether they will be mustered
out at San Francisco and take travel
pay or in their own states, transported
by government. Cable vote of each
regiment. "ALGER,
"Secretary of War.”
FACTS FAVORING DREYFUS.

the Court of (.'a*»atlon.
PARIS, June 2.—The court of cassa
tion at noon today resumed hearing
the arguments in the application for
a revision of the Dreyfus case. The
same audience as on the previous days
of the hearing was present, but the
rest of the Palace of Justice was de
serted.
Maltre Mornard, counsel for Madame
Dreyfus, resumed his speec.i. He re
viewed the facts in favor of I>eyfus.
Counsel expects to close his speech to
day.
Maitre Mornard's speech was large
ly a refreshing of straw already
thoroughly treshed out by M Ballot j
de Beaupre and Maneau. He warmly ;
eulogized the report of M. Ballot de j
Beaupre and applauded the conclus- j
Ions arrived at by M. Maneau.
Counsel for Mine. Dreyfus concluded
with protesting against the idea that
even for the sake of the honor of the j
army might should dominate over
right.. He said the army itself was j
thirsting for honor and justice to be ;
rendered, and he pointed out that the 1
army could not be dishonored by the 1
acknowledgment that a judicial error
had been committed. Counsel then j
said: "l am awaiting your verdict, be
lieving it will prove to be the blessed
dawn wnirh will throw upon our be* !
loved country the light of concord and :
truth.” (Applause.)
The president of the court then an
nounced that sentence would be ueliv
ered at one of the approaching sessions
of the court. It is generally surmised
that this means sentence will bd de
livered on Saturday at the opening of
the sitting of the court.

CHICAGO, June 2.—A special cable
to the Tribune from Paris says: Major
Mart hand's speech at Toulon has fallen
like a bomb. Mart-hand's previous at
titude and his frequent protestations 1
of loyalty to the government gave no
indications of his intention to lash the

The speech is regarded as seditious.
Here Is the incriminating phase, spok

that peace was the instant question.
Happily, peace was maintained, but i
I believe I can say that of that sort of
peace there had better not be too much

As a r«sult of Marehand's speech a

I’rlactpal Text—“Now Is t hrift Risen
from tha Dead”—I. Cor. IS-HO—Jesus
Triumph* Over tha Uruvs and Rises
to Glorious Immortality.
11. “But Mary stood without.” As
soon ns she Imd told the disciples her
fears she returned to the sepulcher, and
reached It probably soon after Peter and
John had left for home. "And as she wept
she stooped down and looked Into tha
sepulcher.” Because she was anxious to ^
see whether shu might not. after (.11,
he mistaken about the absence of the
body.
12. “And seeth two angels In white."
In white raiment. White signifying the
purity of their character. Matthew speaks
of the angel's raiment being white as
snow, and his countenance like lightning.
"The one at the head, the other at tho
feet.” The idea Is apparently that of
sitting and watching the body.
13. "She salth unto them.” While the
other women were terrified, Mary seems
to have had no fear, so wholly was she
taken up with her great desire of finding
her Lord. She was ready to brave more
heroically than ever all danger If she
might only find his corpse.—Jacobus.
"They have taken away my Lord.” This
has been applied typically to those who
have tried to take the divine nature of
Jesus from the Scriptures, and left them
but an empty tomb.
14. "She turned herself back.” She was
outside the cave, looking In, and now she
turned away, perhaps hearing footsteps
behind her. "And saw Jesus standing,
ami knew not that It was Jesus.” Why
did she not recognize him at first? (1)
She hud her eyes dimmed with tears, and ^
(2) her mind occupied anil excited with
other thoughts: besides, (3) she was not
at all expecting to see him alive; <4> Ills
garments must certainly have been
changed, as the soldiers had those he
was accustomed to wear; (5) she may
not have looked up to hi* face, perhaps
hardly looked at all; Mi the long agony
on the cross must have made some dif
ference In his appearance.
15. "She. supposing Him to be the gar
dener." and therefore a servant of Joseph
of Arimathea, who owned the tomb, and,
of course, friendly. N’o other person
would be likely to la? there at so early
an hour, unless It were the Roman guard,
of which she probably knew nothing.
"Ami I will take him away.” See that
It Is done. She would take the care and
responsibility on herself.
lfi. "Jesus salth unto her. Mary,” This
word spoken In the old. familiar tones,
and showing that Jesus knew who she
was, led her Instantly to recognize Him.
The voice Is one of the last things to
change. I have known ministers, after
many years 'absence, to be recognized by
the voice, when all things else had
changed beyond recognition. "She • • •
salth unto him, Rabbont.” Hebrew for
my master or teacher.
17. "Jesus salth unto her. Touch Me
not.” The verb primarily means to fas
ten to; hence It Implies here, not a mere
momentary touch, but a clinging to.—
M. R. Vincent. The translation "touch
Me not" la Inadequate and gives a false
impression. The verb (haptesthal) does
not mean to "touch” and "handle” with
u view to seeing whether his body was
real; this Christ not only allowed but
enjoined (v. 27: Luke xxlv., 39. comp. I.
John I.. 1): rather it means to "hold ori
to” ami “cling to.” Moreover. It Is the
present (not aorlst) Imperative: and the
full meaning will therefore tie. "Do not ^
eontlnue holding M*-." or .-Imply “hold M»"
not.” For I am not yet ascended to My
Father." This Is the reason given why
Mary should not cling to Jesus at this
time. How Is It a reason? (D It means,
do not stop now to embrace Me. but has
ten away to the disciples, for you will
have other opportunities to express your
devotion to Me, since I remain some time
on earth before I ascend to heaven, or
(2) Mary would have held her Lord fast
with the grasp of earthly affection and
love. She seems to have thought that
Jesus was m remain henceforth with
them in the body. Jesus reminds her that
this Is not true, hut that only after Ills
ascension could there be the truest, full
est, most spiritual expressions of devo
tlcn. (3) Grimm explains It thus: "Do
not seek to learn by touching Me whether
I am even now clothed with a body: there
Is no need of this search, for I have not ~
ascendtd to (hr* Father”—and am. there- "** •
fore stlil in the flesh—“but go unto My
brethren,” etc. "But go to my breth
ren.” “Here, for the lirst time. Jesus
speaks of His disciples as brethren.” -
Hovey. In spite of their failures, the dis
ciples were His brethren In love, and
service, and fellowship with God. being
sons of the same Father. "I ascend.”
IS. "Mary Magdalene came and told."
She obeyed the command of Jesus.
19. “The same day" on which Ho
arose. During this day Jesus appeared
live time*. "The doors »jr,? tjwut_ * * *
for /ear of the jews. who might easily
be angry at the disappearance < f Jesus
from the tomb, and the rumors of Ilia
resurrection. "Where the disciples were
assembled.” In some upper room In Je
rusalem belonging to some dlclpls.
"Came Jesus and stood In 'he n.'dst.”
Kit her by some miracle, as V'lien He
walked on the sea, or escaped (rotu the
mob at Nazareth, or by quietly oprn.ng
the door. The fart that Jesus entered
through the closed door does not Indicate
that the body was other than the natu
ral body which had t»een laid In the
grave; and I'hrtst's language at this very
time, as reported by Luke "A spirit hath
rot tlesh aiut bones, as ye see M« have,”
appears to tie conclusive that His resur
reetion Isely was III* physical body.
20. "Hhewed unto them Ills hands and
His side” To prove to them that He
was the same Jesus with the same hotly,
that had been crucified, but now come to
life again This was essential to the ^
complete proof of Hi* resurrection Dur
ing Torty day* (Acts! Jesus appeared ten
or eleven times, on one occasion to mura
than five hundred al once. Thus the
proof of Hi* resurrection was complete.
