He Is authorized to make certain suggestions tending to this end and to bind his church to a certain extent. Ho asked that n committee bo appointed to meet with him and hear what he had to h'.. This was compiled with by the synod. Dn Sehmaurk was caroful to say, how ever, that he 'and the church he repre sented, wcro opposed ,to anything like amal gamatl.!, but were hcnrtlly In favor of co-operation. When ho meets with the committee Mr Srhmauck will point-out tho well rccognltcd fact that at present two boardH of foreign missions are '.operating In substantially the same territory and using translations of slmjlar words, such as tho Apostles' Creed, which differ In many particulars. Ho will ask tho adoption ot a single standard, so that tho people among whom tho mis slonarles aro woi'kfn'g may not bo ablo to ay that the two bodies of Christians do not, agree- Tho sarao situation exists with rotation to home .missions, with the ex ception that a board of arbitration already exists, but has never held a meeting.

The telegram ot the Phllllplnc commission to Secretary Hoot on January 17, 1H01, reciting that tho military authorities In Manila had for two yeara subjected women of bad character to "certified examination," and the courso of General MacArthur In defending such policy was mado the occasion for the adop tion of a set ot resolutions earnestly pro testing against "the Introduction of the Eu ropean system of state regulated vice In the new possessions of the United Stales." The reasons urged against such n courso wcro: To furnish bad women with .official health certificates was contrary to good morals and would Impress both soldiers and natives as officially sanctioning vice; It was unJUBt to subject vicious women to com pulsory medical examination not applied to vicious men; official regulation of vice, while lowering the moral tone of tho com munity, la quite Ineffective In protecting public health, ns shown by experience In Paris, where tho system originated, by Its abandonment In England, Switzerland and other countries and Its failure evcrywhero It has been tried.

The committee, devoted Itself moro especially to the social evil aa It exists In Hawaii and the Philippines. It Is explained that the evil Is authorized and protected by military regulations, and tho coinmlttco demands that this situation bo uprooted. The report was adopted unanimously. The coinmlttco on Sunday schools and young people's soctotlea reported n resolu tion which nlm-'d at keeping the societies of the church under Its own control and aa far ns possible, away from the leaders of the lnter-denomlnatloual societies, many of whoso views on organized labor and bo cret societies are against those ot the mem bers of this synod.

About the first of next month full civil government -will be set up In thu Philippine Islands ex actly ns projected by tho Philippine com mission. As soon after that date as tho administrative machinery can bo mado ready for It the new Philippine tariff will bo proclaimed, also following out the original plan formed beforo the announce ment of 'the decisions ot the supreme court last weok. It was also decided that there was no reason for an extra session of congress. These determinations followed a careful study of tho Jurisdictions of the courts by Attorney General Knox and Secretary Root, tho results of which were made known at the cabinet meeting today. After two hours' discussion the cabinet was unanimous In tho opinion that the recent supremo court decisions called for no change In the government's program. Secretary Root has had little doubt at any time slnco tho court's action ot the feasibility of continuing the execution of tho Philippine program without violating any ot tho principles enunciated by the court, and his study ot the court's opinions was mainly to mako sure that he had not overlooked nnythlng In the decisions that might qualify that belief on his part. Ho has not found anything In the decisions delivered to shake his original Idea and has so advised the cabinet. Attorney General Knox, after an Inde pendent consideration of the opinions, was ot tho same mind, so the original program will be carried out. The attorney general submitted to the cabinet a very elaborate review of the supreme court decisions, with his conclusions thereon. ICKHl Stntim of the lalnnds. As to the legal status of the islands the officials have nothing to say, but while re serving full liberty to meet any legal at tacks as may be thought best, the general statement Is mado that tho exercise ot authority In the Philippines Is to be by vlrtuo of the supreme power Imposed In tho president. It may be cither as commander- in-chief of tho United States military de partment, or by special designation In tho Spooner law; perhaps cither, It Is Bald, will bo sufficient.
