GENERAL MILES THE MAN TO SEND THERE He Han \ever Yet Failed and III * Created Victories Hni e llecn Thoie of Conciliation and Mann ement. ( Copyright , IKfi. by Pre Publ ! hlnf : Co. ) LONDON , July 22. ( New York World Cablegram Special Telegram. ) Andrew Carnegie send out the following statement regarding the Philippine nUuatioa : "Those who warned President McKlnley that there * aa no substitute for nationality * nen he changed the Instructions to the peace commission and bought a rebellion from Spain , said that the Philippines could not taally be conquered and that a long and costly war was Inevitable. If he rashly undertook their nubjugation We were not deceived * s the president was by General Otis' announcements week after week that he would soon end the war by capturing the insurgents. His Increased levy of raw , un trained volunteers only lead him InU , the eecond reason's failure. "General Lawtoa ha * told us that 100.000 soldiers would b required soldiers , not fresh volunteers. We have aot got these and cannot get them , since tralaed volun teers refused to re-enlist. The war will probably go on to the end of next June , until another rainy seanjn sets In , with out rcnult. Even If the Insurgents are badly punished , we shall not be much nearer a peaceful aad successful occupation of that country. To begin with , the work of civiliz ation and the development of these eight millions of people. It will still -be a question of our keeping there an overpowering mili tary force. "There Is no solution to thin question ex cept that which makes people friendly to us. Thin Is only obtained by a promise of Independence , euch as was given to Cuba. The true and only remedy Is conciliation. We must conciliate the people of the Phil ippines aad not try to subdue them , for even if this is frjcceHifully accomplished it brings ua ao nearer to the end. "There Is a recent epUode In Great Prltalo'g history < whlch I commend to the consideration of the president. Two years ago 70.000 British troops concentrated ia the largest force ever assembled In India and war waa declared agaliun the Afridls. That campaign resulted much asf ours has done against the Philippines. General Lock- hart published a proclamation that be was about to descend from "the mountains into the valley for climatic reasons , but In the spring he would return and complete the campaign. That spring never came , not one word hao ever been heard of hts return. Ilerolc Defender. "The AfridUi. like the Filipinos , have been found such heroic defenders of their lani that the government recognized that a bad mistake had been made. The Afridls re main independent , their land is their own. Such statesmanship a strong maa like Sal isbury can adopt. The opposition party had denounced the unjust attack upon the Afridls T and rejoiced when It was defeated , but Sal isbury's government ia stronger than ever. "So it would be with our Philippine mis take If the president only had Salisbury's courage. Instead of sending 12.000 more of our thoughtless young men to be sacrificed he eaould s ad a capable statesman , oce with a mind of his own , authorise him to negoti ate peace and promise Independence under our protectorate until a proper government can b established. The democratic party Rould stultify itself If It did not Indorse this policy. The republican party could then go into the forthcoming political contest with a united front aad probably be successful , although it must be heavily handicapped la any case. "If the next rainy season finds us still at war with the Filipinos it will go hard In deed with ( be republican party's nominee. No tO.OOO or 60.000 men. mostly untrained and unaccllmatlzed are likely to effectually estab lish our control by next June , for not the dc- ! pereiag of opposition army , but a ccrdial acceptance of our rule by the people- , must be obtained. Without this victory is only defeat. "General Miles is no doubt our beet gen eral. He has never yet failed. Hit greatest victories have ben those won by conciliation and management. Let him be sent to Ma nila , authorized to take all conciliatory as well aa military measures necessary In hc ! Judgement to obtain lasting peace. Including authrrlty to promise- trial of Independence under our protectorate whenever a satis factory government i securely eetabllihed. I believe bis record of unvarying luccess will not bo broken. "It U either thli policy now , or another year of failure. We have nothing to hope from military forces alone In the Philippines. We are not a military power 15,000 mite * from our military ba < , and I hope we will never be. "A great standing army U necessary tor foreign conquest. This the raaag of the American people , fortunately , will not ap prove. Let t * have peace.

SHAMROCK'S CHANCES BETTER Iliey Seem to Have Improved Since the Itecent Trial Itace rtlth llrltannla. 'Copyright , 1539 , By Pres * Publishing Co. ) LONDON. Jaly 22. ( New York Cable gram Special Telegram ) . The results of the Shamrock-Britannia trials have Im mensely increased public Interest In the American cup contest , which It is now hoped Shamrock may win. The hcit Judges of the raerita of Shamrock , famous yacht skippers , moot of whom happened to be in the Solent during the trial * with BritUnnla. have given their views. Carter. England's pre mier skipper , summed up his opinion of both contests as follows : "I reckon Shamrock Is the beat boat that ever crcnsed the Atlantic. I know all about the other challengers and Amerlca'a prowess , but doubt If the Hereshoffj can excel the lightness of Llpton's boat. She certainly Is light to the extreme , but strong Ithal , and unless she encounters a gale la the western ocean will race oa the American side like the great boat I believe her to te. The ham mering of the westerly wind might not do her good , but la heart I believe ehe will win. I did all 1 could with Britannia la the tnals. I know she U aa goad as was Vigilant , if not better. Thistle , however , beat Gene-la In I&5T by more than Sham rock beat Britannia , which means come- thlng. But the challenger was obviouily held back and I am positive can do better In America. I think worlds of Shamrock and for old time's nake hope she will suc ceed where Gentrsta failed. " Captain Myles of Lome , who was oa Gal atea during the cup races , says : "Trial matches are apt to deceive onlookers whose wish that the chalrenger win Is father to the thought. Still I think Shamrock's form 1 superb. I witnessed Valkyrie's trial on the Clyde with disappointment. I did not expect her to win the cup , but Shamrock's form against Britannia compels the belief that her chance Is excelling I believe la cup racing trim her weakness /own the wiad will be removed. " Captain Srcamore. who steered Valkyrie III when the memorable foul took place , watched the challeacer sail both matches. His Ideas are. "Trials confirm the opinion that Shamrock is the best boat ever built for the task of bringing back the cap. No other boat ever approached her pointing and sailing whea on the wind. I am satisfied that la fetching la a breeze she Is stlffer. faster aad more weatherly than Valkyrie. Had Defender been on the Solent the other day I consider ? he would have been badly beaten. I like American yachtsmen. I know there will be fair paly. The only doubt U as to heaT weather acrosa the At lantic. I hope for a smooth passage aad British success" Bevin , who sailed Ailsa acd Dan raven's captain on Audrey , said : "I have little doubt that If fair play can te obtained Shamrock is faster than Columbia. The cup will come to this side. Other chal lengers , with the possible exception of Val kyrie III , were not faster than their oppo nents. " Ben Parker , skipper of the Kaiser's Me teor , said"I know American waters thor oughly. I have seen Shamrock under con struction and ia dry dock. I believe the conditions cf the yacht's architecture are so similar now that the result of a cup race will be Influenced chiefly by which boat is most rlshtly constructed. After a thorough j examination of Shamrock's raetals and j method of construction I am satisfied the i Americans caaaot surpass us on either point. I watched the trials. Shamrock sailed ahead of my highest expectations. Nothing oa this side is fast enough to look the way she went. I feel confident the states caa produce nothing to lead hT horns.

The hot spell of weather was temporarily broken last eight by a heavy fall of rain , followed by a some what gloomy raoralag. causing apprehension for the inter-university sports. At aeon. however , the nn wag again shining and the heat was tropical. This left London under a hot mist , but dispelled the fears of rain. The gates of the Queen's club grounds were ) ' thrown open at 2:15 : p. m. to take crowds that were already surrounding the en trances. The American and English nags were flying from the center of the field , while the club house and long row * cf stands which enclosed the remaining sides of the j I grounds were brilliant with flags of all ai- I ttonj and the colors of Yale and Harvard , Oxford and Cambridge. The announcement in the newspapers that the prince of % Vaes ! would cot wear a frock : coat or top hat caused many to follow the prince's example , and the grounds bore a purely holiday appearance. The rain had resulted la putting the track la excellent condition and the microscopic care with which every superfluous particle had be n removed , won the admiration of American visitors. Team * Ilrnch the Gronndn. The American teara woie up at Brighton la the beat of health and spirits , breakfasted before S o'clock and took the 5 o'clock train for London. Upon their arrival here the party drove to the Royal Palace hotel , Kea- elngton , where they lnncced""aloae. and shortlyi'a u > r3 o'clSclc drove to the Queen' * club , entering the pa Til Ion by the rear ea- traac ia order to avoid the crowd. The Englishmen arrived about the same time. Each man had his owa valise to the club house , where there was a cordial reunion be tween the member : of the team and their friends , who had accompanied them from America , but had been staying ia London while the others were training at Brighton. Un-Jer Mr. Wendell's strict order , not a word was said by a single man with regard to the prospects of the contests , bat the faces of all Indicated the utmost confidence. Walter Camp , who has been watching the Tale-Harvard team closely , was an early arrival on the field. He expressed ad miration of the track and the weather conditions , he said , were perfect for the Americans. Mr. Camp added that if the Americana could not win today he did not know when they could.

The tender of the war portfolio was made to Mr. loot last tight aftsr the conference at the White Hoes- . As the president will leave for * he Adiron dack * Wednesday or Thursday of next week it is hardly probabie that Mr. Root will cometo Washington to center with him te- fore that time.

It was stated that Senator Platt came to Washington -last evtnlns"'armsd 'with Au thority from Mr. Root to accept In 'his name the war portfolio. It Is not expected that the aceptane * will make any change in the plans of Secretary Alger , and he will remain on duty here until the end of the peent month , being assisted by Mr. Metkle- Joan , who is expected to reach Washington this aftemaoa. Secretary Alger had confidently expected the ap-pointment of Mr. Root , and was very much p' je < i at the president's choice. This waj evidenced ia the fallowing Utter , which Secretary Alger addressed , yesterday to hti successor : WASHINGTON , D. C. . July 21. My De-ir Mr. Root.
