Advices from the Orient bring to hand the full text of the edict recently Issued by Fernando Prlma do Hlvora , governor general of the Philippines , a brief reference to which has been made through official sources at Madrid. Tlio edict la so severe In Its treatment of all ene mies of the Imperial government that the manifestos of Weylcr seem mild In compari son. Taken na a whole. It appears as nn ofilclal confession of the untruth of the fro- rmont announcements from the government at Madrid that the Philippine Insurrection has been suppressed and the people pacified. The edict begins with the revocation of all pusses heretofore Issued nnd the establish ment of a military trocha. Property belong ing to pcrsocs connected with the rebel lion , or to tenants , partners , or any person Interested In property belonging to the rebels , Is declared forfeited to the govern ment , and will bo seized to satisfy the needs of the Spanish army. The famines of Indi viduals who nrc Incorporated In the rebel party must go to Join them or fix their resi dence under the watchfulness of the author ities. For the purpojo of this order the families of rebels will consist of their wives , children , parents , brothers , brothers-in-law und cousins. TO\V.\S AUK IIUDKD IIV Pllt.VTIIH.

Associated Press dispatches from Vancouver on the 12th Inst. contained nn account of a raid by Chinese pirates upon the European settlement at Hal Pong. The steamer Coptic , which has r.rrlved from the Orient , brought full particulars of the murderous affair and the punishment meted out to the offenders who worj captured. The pirates fiivt attacked the town of Hal Duong at S o'clock on the night of December 15. It was llred In four quar tets simultaneously , and half of this provin cial capital has bejsn destroyed. The resident governor and bis family nnd European olll olals were compalled to abandon their resi dence during n sortie of the troops nnd tnko shelter In the forts. The force was too small to admit of meeting the pirates , who were armed with rlllcs , In tlio open. At Phu-Nlnh-Glam8 there were no casualties among tbo Europeans , but considerable damage - ago was done to the town. About 3 o'clock on the morning 'of December 1C several hundred Annninltcs crossed the river Uich- tray In smnll bands nnd converged upon Hal-Pong. Shortly afterward several fires started in the European anil native quarters on the outskirts of tbo town. Reports 'of firearms were heard In eevry direction , and a constable ran to the barracks and gave the alarm. Meanwhile another band , about ItiO strong , attacked the village of Amblr. This wns headed by an old man , who marched in the center of four standards , which bore the Inscriptions. "Obey the order of heaven. " "Destroy the Europeans , " "Exterminate the dyrnsty of Ngu Yen and Mae. " About -I o'clock n company of French troops in two divisions turned out and charged the rear gunrd of the pirates with llxcd bayonclH. Fifteen of the pirates wore killed and several more wounded and taken to the hospital. In the meantime' the pirates had entered the house of Mr. A. R. Marty and killed his "bookkeeper , SI. Gauthier , nftcr horribly mutilating him. His 7-year-old child also disappeared. Then they attacked M. Dulce , clerk for the Fua.se Mining company , and left him for dead. Ho was taken to the hos pital , however , and may recover. On the following Saturday ten of the cap tured pirates were executed upon the spot where M. Gauthier was assassinated , nnd after the execution , the heads of the pirates were placed upon utnkrs and set up In front of the house. About 200 Europeans nml 500 natives witnessed the execution.

Ho railed attention to the bitter at tack made on him tbcu by President Proc tor of the commission.

WASHINGTON1. Jan. 2C. The house devoted - voted another day to the consideration of the Indian appropriation bill nnd moat of the time was consumed In the discussion of extraneous questions. Far the most Inter esting fcnturci of the day was the debate on the question of reducing the mall carrier service In the large cities owing to the fall- tire of the senate to attach the estimated deficiency of $1GO.OOO to the urgent deficiency bill. This subject has been agitating the metropolitan cities ever slnco the order was Issued for cutting down the force on Kebru- ary 1. A dozen representatives from as many cities protested ngnlnst the proposed reduction and urged nn Immediate * appropri ation , when Chairman Cannon of the appro priations committee allayed the wrath of tlia members by assuring them that there was no occasion for alarm , that the service could not poaslbly suffer until Juno 15 , before - fore which time there would bo ample op portunity to pass a daflcluncy appropriation M.4. Loud used strong words in his criticism of the Postolllco department olllolals nnd promised aomo Interesting disclosures later on. Without any preliminary business the house today went into com mittee of the whole and resumed consideration of the Indian appropriation bill. The pending amendment was that to strike out the appropriation for the Carlisle h'dlan school. Mr. Sherman ( rep. N. Y.J. ill charge of the bill , defended the work of : ho Carlisle school , which , he said w-is : hc greatest Industrial school In the country. Everything was taught there which was necessary to make the In.llan n self-support- Ing cltt/cn anywhere in the world. His observation wus that the best Indian schools wf re those which were not on the reserva tions. Ho said the Carlisle foot ball cloven lad placed J,7,000 in the treasury of that college during the past season. The motion to strike out the appropriation for the Carlisle Indian school was defeated after considerable ! debate , 29 to 63. Tt-n pages of the bill were disposed of today. The conference report on the urgent de- llclency bill was adopted. INDIANS NOT PUOailKSSlNG. The house today having under considera tion the Indian appropriation bill , ' .Mr. CB - non ( rep. , III. ) expressed the opinion that the Indians were not progressing. It was only In the Indian. Territory that their con- lltlon was relatively good. Ho thought edu cation at eastern schools would effect little Mr. I.acey ( rep. , i la. ) eulogized the wort of the Indian schools.

" The meiiiber from South Dakota was evi dently nettled , and he retorted with consid erable bltterrcfls. So far as physical char acteristics went , he- said , he thought Mr. Cennor.

WASHINGTON' , Jan. 2(5. ( lr more than six hours the senate bad under discussion the Teller resolution providing that the gov ernment pay the principal and Interest of t'.ie bonds of the United Stales In silver. Ily agreement the .imoinlmiiit and pending resolution are to be voted on boPoro adjourn ment tomorrow. Tlio day was devoid of In cidents and acrimonious colloquys which characterized that of yesterday , but It was riolete with argument and oratory. The time was consumed by Mr. Teller ( all. , Colo. ) , the author of the resolution , and Mr. Daniel ( dem. . Va. ) , who supported the resolution , and by Mr. Hoar ( rep. . Mass. ) and by Mr. Plait ( rep. , Uonct. ) , In opposition to it. All delivered speeches except Mr. Hjar , whoso speech was In reply to statements advanced by Mr. Teller yesterday. N'o other business was transacted. At the turning of the senate today Mr. Halo ( Me. ) presented the report of thu con ferees on the urgent deficiency appropriation bill and riio report was acreed to. Mr. Chandler ( N. 11.secured ) the adop tion of a resolution , calling upon the attorney general for a report as to whether there have been recent violations of the consti tution in tionlhMiia by the exclusion from service on Jurleu In United States courts of duly qualified citizens en account of color. On motion of Mr. Vest ( Mo. ) the oenato took up the Teller resolution. The debate wao opened by Mr. Teller ( Colo. ) , the author of the resolution. He said he would per mit no innn to excel him in hor.or or good faith. "I would do niothlng , " ho aald , "that would bring- about such a condition of af fairs ns would bo disgraceful , whatever the opinion of the senator from Massachusetts ( Mr. Hoar ) may bo of my opinions or con victions. The Massachusetts senator tried to make It appear that my pa-'itlon was cci a parallel with the making of a ten-dollar piece out of a copper cent. Such a propo sition I do not advance and I do not think It would Hnd much support In this or any other legislative body. " Mr. Teller mid ho would be willing to retire from public life If by so doing he could bring about nn International bimetallic agreement. He complained that the exist ing contiacts conceiving the money In which the- bonds of the United States were payable could not be changed without action of con gress , one of the i > artles to the contract , and the government bad a right to all thu ad vantages the contract afforded It. The point had been reached , said Mr. Tel ler , wlitci an effort waa 'being ' made by the national government to put the country on the gold basis , and In bis opinion the time had arrived for all parties to walk squarely fi. > to the cannon's mouth of the question and meet the Lsauo fairly and honestly with themselves and the pecple. Ici response to a .lUtoment by Mr. Teller that $202.000,000 of bonds were sold for the purpose of maintaining the gold standard , Mr. Gear said It was well known that more than $200,000.000 of those bonds were sold to meet a deficit In the treasury. The statement was llatly contradicted by the Colorado senator , who maintained that there was no necessity for the sale of hauls to meet current expenses , when there was plenty of silver to meet pressing obligations of lL.ie government. In conclusion , after speaking about two hours and a half , Mr. Teller replied to Koine statement ? made yesterday concerning sdv- fcirs tanks. At the conclusion' ' of Mr. Teller's speech Mr. Lodge called attention to some state ments ! n criticism of an amendment offered bv him ( Lodge ) yesterday , regarding the pending resolution , The resolution declared that the obligations of the United States should bo paid "In the money that Is of the highest value in- the world , In gold or Ita pqulvalont , whether that be gold or Ellver. " Mr. Lodge Inquired whether Mr. Teller wao In favor of that amendment. "Well , I shall vote agatast it , " replied the Colorado senator. Mr. Lodge Insisted in knowing whether Mr. Teller did or did not think theamenJ - incnt a proper -prir.-clplo for congress to lay cow.-- . cow.Mr. Mr. Teller still held that the government and the government's creditors ought to ibldo by cciiifracts made. "I desired to know , " said Mr. Lodge , 'what tbo penalor from Colorado thought of ny amendment , because I copied it word or word from a speech made by the senator n which he declared every dollar this gov ernment owes will be paid in the money which Is the highest memoy of the world. In ; olc' or the equivalent of gold , whether that x > silver or paper. " Mr. Lodge thought if the senator from Colorado believed that his statement was accurate when he made It. 10 ought not now to object to supporting it with his voice and vote. Mr. Teller replied that ho had never advo- ated itho payment of government obllga- lena In depieclated currency , and 'did ' not now. now.Mr. . Hoar followed In a speech , In which ho tool ; the position of yesterday that the question under discussion was not one or law. but ono of honor and Integrity. Uo sJd the adve-catcs of the pending resolution maintained that by a crime the price of sli ver had been reduced uii'til ' the silver In n dollar was worth only 41 cents , yet the same senators who made the charge of "that crime" nlvocatod the payment of the gov ernment's obligations In this dcprcrlatei ; mine ) money that had been depreciated. as they claimed , 'by ' crime. The Colorado senator , when he rose to be gin hU speech , Mr. Hoar said , expressed a dcslro to resent something. In fact he w : & always resenting something. M.1. Teller IOSD to call Mr. Hoar's atten tion to a statement , -and Mr. Hoar replied by likening him to a small hey who in quired what the cost of eleven pounds of bpof would be at 7 cents a pound , and re plied , "you can't get no beef ut no such price. " In the course of his remarks Mr. Hoar re ferred Incidentally totho present Industrial situation In Now England and Its relation to the Dlngley tariff law. iJJo was glad , and the people of Now England were glad , of the Industrial prosperity of South Cirolinu , Alabama and Georgia , but ho did hold that tlio people of New England did not like to bo brought Into competition with communi ties where long hours arc the rule In Indus trial departments , and where child labor was employed. He said those practices were not known In New England , where limited hours for workmen and no child labor were provided for by law. CompiHItlon upon a basis of equality of Jaw would be welcomed by Now England. "Our policy , " said Mr. H6ar , "Is not bounded by state lines. Wo are Nc-w Eng land men. but wo are G'bovo ' all Americano. " Mr. Hoar Hhortly afterward concluded and wa _ followed by1 Mr. Plutt ( Conn. ) In an ad dress In oppcaltlon to the pending resolu tion. Mr. Platt declared that It was the purpose of the advocates of the resolution to override the solemn declaration of con gress that the parity of gold and silver coins should bo maintained. Mr. Platt said that If Jio could bollnve that this country could coin silver freely without dc-'troylng tbo debt-paying power of silver ho would bo glad to enter on that policy. He could not , however , entertain the possibility of such a policy. IrJ the course of a brief colloquy between Mr. Platt 'in the one side and Mr. Allui and Mr. Tlllman , Mr. Platt said that his country had now bimetallism. To this Mr. CluHidlor took exception , saying that any definition of bimetallism which omitted the fret ) coinage of both metals at a ratio fixed by law wus not only Itfomct , but obsolete. Mr. Platt challenged Mr. Chandler to pro duce any reuognlzcd authority which In cluded free coinage In the definition of 1)1- Mr. Daniel followed Mr. Plutt In support of the resolution- lie iuld we board on all el U Hie clamorous statements of the go'd moil that th financial question was unsettling InwitifHs and destroying tin- credit 'four people- .

Jan. 20 , At the oxccuttvo mc-ettag of the republican members of the house committee * on banking nnd curroacy this afternoon the Individual nttttudo of the members was polled and the procedure In the drafting of the currency legislation mapped out. All the republicans except Sotithwlck ( N. Y. ) , who had tiot participated In the pro ceedings , were present. A resolution , offered by Mr , Johnson , ai > slgnlng each one present five minutes In which to declare hla Attitude , whether lie thought there was a necessity for banking legislation , and If so what essential prin ciples ho favored for 'racorporallon In the currency mcaaure to bo finally framed , wns patojd , .iiid the- roll then called. Mr. Walker favored a revision of the sys tem which would tnko the currency busi ness from the government nnd furnish nt cnce n banking system on assets. He would not approve any pkr.i materially dllfcrl.'ig from this , and In this policy would not necfeaarlly cling to hla bill. Mr. Hroslus ( Pa. ) was opposed to retiring the greenbacks nnij to banking on assets In any degree. Mr. Johnson ( Ind. ) urged the gold stand ard , lotlromcnt of the greenbacks , eliminat ing the currency business from the treas ury and IrsuliiK new circulation through na tional Innka to take Ita place and avoid' contraction , the new circulation to bo under national control. Mr. Van Voorhls ( Ohio ) substantially agreed with Mr. Urculus. while Messrs. Mc- Clenry ( Minn. ) , Fowler ( N. J. ) and Mitchell ( N. Y. ) held views along the line of Mry Johnson's policy. Mr. Braiding ( Mich. ) oppos&d a doclara- tlcu for the gold standard In so many word * and wus not certain , that ho wns willing to have tlio greenbacks retired or to have credit currency. Mr. Hill ( Conn. ) favored the monetary commission bill and practically agreed with Mr. Johnson. Mr. Prince (111. ( ) opposed the specific dec laration for the gold standard and thought tlio retirement of the greenbacks should bo carefully dealt with and he favored bank In- ; on assets. Mr. Cnpron ( I { . I. ) approved of allowing banks to extend circulation' ' to the par value of their bond. ? , the Incorporation of banks with smaller capital and a diminished tax on circulation. This , he believed , would pave the way for more extensive currency legislation In tbo future. liciM.N pAVCMt OK .MIl.W.irtCKK. Cirnln ln ( < -s llnvi * ] ) lMorliiiIimtril In Knviip of Mlniirniiiillw. WASHINGTON , Jan. 2C. The Interstate Commerce commission today rendered an opinion by Chairman Knnpp In the case of the Milwaukee Chamber of Commerce against the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway company and others. The commis sion rules that distances by shortest avail able routes are the proper distances upon which to base comparison of differentials in grain rates from the same points of ship ment to such markets as Milwaukee and .Minneapolis. .Another point decided Is that , although carriers serving but ono or two competing cities may be reducing rates to the city served by them prevent the cor rection of an unjust relation of rates to tin- two place's from common points of supply , It Is nevertheless the duty of the commis sion to condemn such a reduction of charges nnd to imllcatc the basis on which the rules should bo readjusted. Milwaukee complained that the rates on wheat and other kinds of grain from shipping points In lown , Minnesota seta and Pouth Dakota to Milwaukee were unlawful in comparison with the rates charged on like grain to .Minneapolis. The coniinlMioit decides that In many Instances and In varying degrees at different points the differentials in grain rates to Milwau kee above Hie rates In force to Minneapolis from shipping points in and south 'of the southern Minnesota division of the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul railway give prefer ence to Minneapolis and subject Milwaukee to unreasonable prejudice and disadvantage. That Just and reasonable differentials in such rates would bo obtained by applying the interstate distance tariff of the Chicago. Milwaukee ft St. Paul , or the Chicago & Northwestern , to the short line mileage from the several points of ( shipment to Minneap olis and Milwaukee and that just rates to Milwaukee would be made by adding dlffer- cnlials so obtained to rales from tlmo to time in force to Minneapolis ; thnt any higher rales to Milwaukee will be relatively unreasonable and unjust to that city.
