The editor * of newfipoperis along IU.E lines
ot the ElKticrn railroad In Nebraska were
the guests of the railway company
and the expedition officials yesterday ,
and they wtve taken care of In a manner
calculated to put them In touch with the
exposition and all that has been done In
connection with the great fair. Many ot the
newspaper representatives arrived In the city
Monday night and others came in yesterday
morning. To the number -of about ninety
they assembled at tlio corner of Farnam and
Fifteenth Btrecta nt 9:30 : o'clock and
were there taken In charge by Major
Clarkson of the exposition and taken to tlio
exposition grounds on a special trolley train
A trip won made over the grounds by th&
whole party , the visitors who liad not ecen
the grounds and buildings before expresn-
Ing the greatest astonishment at the mag
nificence of ( tie preparations , and those who
liad visited the grounds at some previous
tlmo being even more surprised
< t'Jti : their colleagues nl tbo
rapid progrctfl which has been made.
After parsing all through the grounds and
bullrJlnKU the party returned down town and
ners entertained at luncheon.
The luncheon wao presided over by Preal-
dent Wattles and seated on cither side ol
him at the principal tables were General
Manager nldwell and General Passenger
Agmt Hiichanan'of the Elkhorn road , Mana
ger Uosewatcr , Director Hitchcock and Prof.
F. W. Taylor , representing tlie exposltlon.
After the cigars were passed President
Wattlea started the ball rolling by making a.
few pointed remarks regarding the power
of the prere and the very material asi'kst
ance the exposition had received from tbu
papers represented by those before him. He
expressed the hope that the co-operation
which has existed would continue and eald
he hoped to ace all of the cdltora at tbo ex
position frequently.
WORK OF THE COUNTRY PUESS.
'Manager ' Hocewator of the Department ol
Publicity and Promotion was the first
speaker. He Indulged In a few personal re
marks of a Joking nature an'J ' then pro
ceeded to expriw the lasting oollgatUtia ol
the exposition management to the pre n of
tlio United Stated , and particularly to the
newspaper ; ! of Nebraska , for the substantli'
support the exposition had received at the
bands of the cdltora. He aawtcd that thla
exposition Is not a count ! y fair or a state
fair , but a world's fair. In which the re
sources of the great tratismltulsE'ippl ' region
o > : to bo fhown to the whole world. Thlrty-
three states and four territories have of
ficially recognized the exposition , and In
bringing about thin condition of affairs , Mr.
Ilcsewater tul.1 , the country press might have
been "sponged" on , but It co it had been
done In the Interest of Nebraska and the
tranaml&jl.islppl region nnd not for the ben
efit of Omaha. The country prcos had re
sponded nobly to the calls made upon It , and
Mr. Uosewuter wild the expedition Intcnto
to recognize the services rendered. Regard
ing certain complaints which had been made
to the effect that the country editors hai
been unable to learn how they were to be
treated , he said this matter had only been
definitely settled within the test few dajs
and ho proceeded to explain the plan that
haij been adopted In this connection. A tlckei
will bo Icoucd to each editor of a paper which
has favored the exposition. This ticket wil
admit the editor and hU wife end will be
good during June or. it the editor la unable
to come to Omaha during that month , the
ticket will be honored at any subsequent time
during the entire tlmo of the etay of the
editor in the city.
Mr. Ro-'awatcr
suggested that when the
editors return home after this , brief visit
to the exposition grounds
they could truth
fully say that Nebraska has done nobly and
diallengo the world to come and see what
has "been " done. It would bo only necceaar
to toll the truth to convince people that >
a fallurettb come to the exposition -woulc
bo a llfe-tlong subject of regret.
The speaker tlien entered upon a brie
personal explanation of repeated charged
which have been made from certain sources
to the effect that The Omaha Bee is be
ing paid for apace. Ho briefly related the
main points regarding the special lllus
Irated edition of The Weekly Bee , whkfc
is to be Issued next week , an issue of 200-
000 , with a four-page supplement on heavy
paper and copiously Illustrated , for which
The Bea to to Tie paid $3,200 in exposition
stock. Ho said howas In favor of giving
the World-Herald the
same- privilege on
exactly the same terms.
In closing Mr. Rose-water eald the De
partment of Publicity greatly appreciates
the hc-lp of the country press and Intends
to do everything possible for the benefl
ot the editors of the newspapers of tlie
tate.
'HOW ' TOCIl THE PEOPLE.
General Manager BIdwell was the nex
. speaker nnd spoke briefly regarding the
power ot the state prcea. Ho said It wao
the best medium through which these In
terested In the progrce * of the state could
Ibest bring about that objeerand Us referrei
to the success of the exposition as a re uli
brought about , largely , through the support
given the movement by the newspapers. Hi
then spoke of ( tie great resources of the
atato and how these may bo developed by
concerted effort on the part of all concerned.
Q. M. Hitchcock was next Introduced and
ho epoke quite briefly regarding the Im
portance of the exposition to tbo Interests
of the state and the-energetlc support which
had been given the enterprise by the prcaj
of the state.
P. O , Simmons of Seward was called on
for a- talk on behalf of the guests ot the
„ occasion. He briefly exprewed the thanks
1 ot these present for the magnificent man
ner In which they had been entertained , and
said that every newspaper man In tbo state
1s thoroughly interested in the success of
the exposition. Regarding the proposed
plan of providing for the accommodation of
' visiting editors Mr. Simmons had some
thing to say. Ho said he was a member
of the executive committee of the press
association of the state and as such had
been Instrumental In preparing a plan which
embodied the views of the committee and ,
toe believed , of the state association , re-
uardlns the courtesies to which the editors
of the state are entitled for thalr support
of the exposition. He said the editors ex
pect to pay for everything they receive and
lo not regard free admissions as favors.
The plan outlined by Manager Rosewater ,
ho said , did not meet with his approval ,
and ho did not believe It would bo satis
factory to the. other members of the com ' "
mltteo or to many of the association. He-
said he thought the plan presented by the
press executive committee would bo much
more acceptable. Mr. Simmons warned the
exposition management that there are many
editors In the state who are simply waiting
an opportunity to stick a knife Into the
vitals of the. exposition If the opportunity
offers , and ho said the plan now proposed
tvould simply afford thla opportunity.
PASSES FOR EDITORS.
President Wattles said In reply to the
remarks ot Mr. Simmons that the exposition
expects to grant everything within reason
to the editors of the country press , and he
eald the least that could bo done would be
to give to the editor of every paper which
helps the exposition free admission for him-
eelf and wife , at any time they may choose
to como to the exposition. Before taking hli
ecat Mr. Wattles read a letter from Gov
ernor Holcomb regarding the proclamation
he will teen IBSUO making June 1 a state
holiday in honor of the exposition.
Q. 'F. Kenower of Wlsner and General
Passenger Agent Buchanan made a few brlel
remarks and the assemblage dispersed , the
majority of the visitors taking the 3 o'clock
train for their homos , General Manager Bid-
well having held the train twenty minutes
for their accommodation.

The discussion of the wage schedule of
the onslneers formed an Important part cf
the proceedings. Just what the new scale
is has not been given out , but General
Manager Dickinson of the Union Pacific
said to Thr Bee yesterday afternoon that
a new scale of wages for the engineers had
been adopted , effective May 1 , differing but
very little frcm the wage scale that had
been In effect during the receivership of
the company. The wage scale that was in
effect during the receivership was fixed by
the federal court. In the absence ot any
agreement It was continued in force by the
new company until May 1. On that d'lte
the new cale , which Is reported to be sat
isfactory to both parties to the agreement ,
went Into effect.

NEW YORK. May 3. A special to the
Herald from Wellington MJS : Secretary
Long has taken Immediate measures to relieve
lievo the United States fleet In the Pacific
of any erntxirrnsmient It might feel for
waut of coil. Orders have been telegraphed
to the government authorities at San Fran
cisco to select two ot the swiftest nhlps
at the port , load them with coal and dis
patch them at once to the relief of Com
modore Dewey's squadron. As China and
Jiimn delayed making declarations of neu
trality , some experts in international law
hold that the United States may still obtain
coal In eastern ports. Commodore Dewoy's
achievements , however , have caused the ad-
mlnlstratlcn to feel that the government
should not hesitate to send him supplies
at once without waiting to speculate on what
eastern ports may be open to him.

WASHINGTON , May 3. Ttie French am
bassador M. Jules Ciimbon , has received a
dianatch from the foreign office at Paris
GMtlng that ttio French ambarsador at Ma
drid , M. Pattccnotcr , has forwarded odlclal
details of the Spanish reverse at Manila. M.
' '
I'aternoter'e report was baaed on the latest
Spanish official advlcce. It elates that the
Spanish cruiser Ilelna Maria Ceirtotlnla and
Cestllla were totally burned up , being set
on flro by bombs from the eneray'a ships.
Two of the wiallcr Sranlfli ships , the dis
patch states , were sunk In order to avoid
falling Into the bands of the enemy. The
other Spanish ehlps were half destroyed and
had .taken refuge in Dakar's bay. Th&
British embassy has received no reports of
any character as to the Manila battle , so that
there Is lis basis for tlie statements that
the State department has been informed by
British officials hero that Manila has sur
rendered to Commodore Dewoy.
In the ateencc of specific advices from
Manila , members of the dlnlomatic corps are
dtscusolns with great Interest the future
course of the United States toward the Plill-
Iplnea. They do not doubt that the lalandu
will bo occupied by the American forcts , If
Indeed the occupation has not already oc
curred. The only question on that point Is
nald to bo the number of men Commodore
Dewey can aparo from his fleet to make up
a landing party sulHclint to hold Manila and
other points when large garrisons o' Span
ish troops are there.
FUTURE INTERESTS THEM.
It U the future of the Philippines , how
ever , which meat interests the foreign au
thorities here. As to this , a leading diplo
matic official aald It was unfortunate at
this juncture that ttie assertion was made
by leading men here that the Philippines
would be taken and held at le-ist until the
war ended , when they might be eod ! to
Great Britain or Japm He pointed out that
while this course might be a wise ono to
duo time , yet its announcement now only
oarvedto awaken European powers at a
moment when It was necdlces and Impolitic
to exclto resentment * In those quarters.
There was no principle of lnternatlon.il law ,
he said , wtilch kept a victorious na
tion from enjoying the fruits of
warfare , by holding territory
gained In battle. Intervention by the pow
ers of Europe , he pointed out , was a new
procedure , quite apart from International
law , and based only on the strength of united
action , but he added significantly , "united
squadrons often make International law. "
The suggestion that Great Britain would
take the Philippines In exchange for the
Bermudas and other British posses ions , near
this country. Is not regarded as feasible. It
Is pointed out that the Bermudas and other
British West Indian possessions have far
greater prospective value to England than
the Philippines , owing to the command they
will have of the Nlcaraguan canal t > r other
inter-ocoinlo waterway between North nnd
South America. Such a canal would b < > a
highway for the British commerce to and
from British India , and , it is salj , that the
possession of coaling stations and ports near
the canal are of far more concern to Eng
land than Its remote Insular possessions In
Asiatic waters.
NO SUGGESTION OF INTERVENTION.
There has been no suggestion yet of Inter
ventlon from any foreign source , although 11
Is felt that the occupation of the Philippines
Is more likely to develop a move In this di
rection than any other step thus far taken
A diplomatic official ot long experience lu
Asiatic countries pointed out that there weri
Ircumstances connected with the Philippines
which would make their holding by the
United States more of a burden than u fen-
eflt. He said their population was made up
of Malays , Japanese , Chinese and half-breed
Spaniards , mixed with the former races
making an Incongruous people Impossible to
assimilate with American institutions. The
status of the people , he said , was far below
those of Cuba or Hawaii , so that objections
which had been made against assimilating
the Hawallans and Cubans would be doubly
strong against the people of the Philippines
PLEASES FOREIGN MINISTERS.
The understanding that congress would
eliminate the tonnaga tax from the revenue
bill gives much satisfaction at the embassies
and legations , particularly these of Great
Britain , France and Germany. The ambas
sadors from all these countries have re
ceived Instructions to urge the extreme
severity of this tonnage tax upon British
French and German commerce comtag to
American ports. It was stated by the diplo
mats that in the case of the big ship Kaiaer
Wllholm Jcr Grosse , the tonnage tax would
amount to $17,500 per year against $2,500 at
present. It was remarked In this connec
tion that it was rather strange to ask for
eign governments to adopt neutrality de
crees , and at the same time fsk them to share
In paying the cost of the war.
The Japanese minister , Mr. ( Hoshi , was
notified by the foreign office * t Toklo last
night that a decree of neutrality had 'been '
L 'ueil. Ho has so Informed the State de
partment. The aispatch does not give the
terms of the decree. It serves to close
Japanese ports rather sooner than was ex
pected. Notice of China's 'neutrality has
not yet been received and thcso ports
still remain open.

WASIIINOTON , May 3. The cabinet Is ex.
? ected to decide toJay whether troops shall
bo sent to aMst Dewey In retalnlns posses-
slon of Manila.
The president will await advices from
Commodore Dewey before dccUIng whether
o send troor to Manila.
The a-lmlnbtratlon has practically decided
o occupy the Philippines with a strong mill ,
ary force as aoon as possible after Com-
nodoro Dewey's report , which Is expected
omcrrow , has 'been ' received. For this
> urpose Pacific slope troops will bu usrd ,
and It Is expected that at least 5,000 will
be onroute within the next ten days.
There docs not scorn to be any doubt as i
o the government's purpcso to hold the Is-
an 's pending a fkial settlement with Spain.
when they will he used as a collateral to
sfC'cure the payment to the United States of
R war Indemnity. High officials are of I
the opinion that none of the powers will I
seriously dispute- our right to make such
final dUposltlc-i of the Islands AS stilt sour ,
) Utpose lu tht enforcement of war claluia
against Spain , and In any event this gov
ernment will be prepared to contest nay '
point which may bo raised on thh score.
As Indicated In Secretary Long's request
today for an emergency appropriation , HIP I
government will take step * at oace to auppljr '
Commodore De-wey's fleet with provisions
nni ! other supplies , Including ammunition
and coal , and to this end will dispatch at
the earliest possible moment a sufficient
number of ships to supply amply all pogsl *
> le needs cf the Asiatic squadron. Those
supplier will bo forwarded at once without
awaiting a decision of the question |
as to whether or not troop * should be sent
out to relieve the commodre of the ncces-1
olty of policing Manila with the men from
his fleet. One whip his been secured al >
ready as a collier. It Is tuld to be a muiti
fleeter vets el than these usually so employed -
ployed , but It will take It about three weeKs
to reach Manila and It may stop en route at
Honolulu to replenish Its own coal wipply
from the large accumulation held ihero by
Admiral Miller.
It may bo that , the department , In case of
further need , will try to secure more coal
for the American Philippine fleet from a
nearer and cheaper source than Calilorula.
It Is believed that there Is nothing In ttie
neutrality laws of most nations that pre
vents a merchant from shipping coal 13 a
belligerent power , though a war ttilp of such
belligerent Is icstrlcted lu taking on such
coal In the neutral port. Of course the
merchant would make the shipment at dls
own risk , for the coal piotcibly would be
tiold to be contraband by the Srccilardfl. As
mature st d , after Admiral Dewey's vic
tory , there Is no Spanish naval force left In
east mi waters to at'lzp such a. ship , uo It
would bo easy to compensate the coal mer
chants for the small risk Incurred by ship
ping coal to the American Heat at the Philip *
plncn. It Is eald at the Navy department
tfiat plenty of superior coal con be secured
In this manner in the Asiatic ports at an
tveraso price of $10 per ton. |
Pcrton white , a very high grade coal , can
bo had lu laige quantities from New South
Wales at low figures. However , the Navy
department will rot rely upon nny source
outstJc for the first shipment , but will start
ono steamer at once from San Francisco as ,
soon as It can bo loaded.
Although without confirmation from any
official source , the naval officials are dlJ-
pobed to attach some credit to the statement
coming from Paris that at the last accounts
from Manila the American fleet was firing
upon Corrcgidor Island. This Island lies In
the outer entrance to the harbor of Manila
and Is about twenty-fhe ml'ei below the city.
It Is crowned by a lighthouse and has sev
eral modern guns In place. While not a sctl-1
ous menace to the American fleet , so long ns
the latter lies far above In the vicinity of the
city , the existence of the fort at n place ,
commanding his line of communcatlon could
not be long tolerated by the commodore , for
It would endanger any unarmorrd ship seek
ing to reaeh the fleet and In a measure
would prevent supplies from coming In.

It was a source of congratulation , fcai.eJ
