WASHINGTON. Feb. . 10. In continuing
his statement concerning conditions In the
' Philippine islands 'before the senate com
rclltes ea the Philippines today Governor
Taft said that the estimate for preliminary
txpsoses' In. .those' Islands must Include a
considerable outlay (or school buildings.
It was necessary, be said, to make sal
aries from 10 to 25, per teut higher than In
the United States. .'. In tbU connection Sen
ator Culberion' made Inquiries as to the
' Salaries and allowances ot tbs commUslon
srs of the archipelago. "Is each of the
; commissioners, paid 120,0007" ha asked.
"Np." was tie , reply. "When ws first
west out the commissioners were each paid
. 110.000 and tbs chairman. 112.000, and In
addition there was' an allowance of $3,800
exileqsesv,' Making, ths total $15,600' and
.'$17,600, .respectively, ., . Wben I Was. ap
pointed civil governor I was allowed $5,000
' for my legislative duties snd $15,000 for my
duties ss an executive, making $20,000. The
other, commissioners were allowed $5,000 for
their legislative services and $10,OCO for
tbslr executive duties, making $15,000, all
' la gold." "
, "Is sach allowed a private secretary?"
" "Tea."
"And you.ajso have .a large .clerical
fores?"-" .! ,
"Tog would, tblnk so If you should step
Into our offices, you would also get an Idea
t tbs necessity for such a force."
"Whst other allowances are made?" .
"None, except that I sm allowed, as gov
ernor, to live la tbs Malaranan, tbs old
governor general's palace."
"Is It an salens! ve place?"
"Rather. - It coats ni $125 In gold per
month taJigbt It snd I pay $1,000 a year
out of my own .pocket for servant blrs.
There are fourteen ponies In the stabls,
eight ot which I own. and I also keep three
carriages. j.Tbe grounds are extensive, but
they ars lighted by the city of Manila, as
, any other park would he,".
"Are any other members of tbs commis
sion provided with residences?"
Wool Prefer to Beat ft Rssldencs.
' "They are7 not. All of them pay rsnt
and I eao assure you tbst I would much
. prefer to pay mine to being required it
live at Malacanan and ksep up tbst esteb
lUhmtnt, If 1 may be allowed a word
personal I would' say that of my $17,500
salary last year I had only $1,500 left at
the sad of tbs year,' and I am sure that
- If my Illness hsd not prsvsnted my enter-
. , talnlsg to a desirable extent there would
bsvo bees nothing left of the $20,000 now
paid, and General Wright and Judge Ide
bava assured me they could savs nothing.
There Is much entertaining necesssry snd
' 1 the cdet of everything 1 greater than In
.Washington. ' Indeed, money goes so tsit
there that It seems to melt. There are
no perquisites or allowances other tban
those I have mentioned.":
Tbs governor added that the commission
had had nothing to do with fixing tbs
salaries of their own members, tbst bsving
been done In Washington, but bs ssld tbst
It was Impossible to seeure the services
of competent men To responsible positions
without psylng better .salaries than sre
paid her. ,"! i- v
Detor Csrmsck reverted to soms ot
Governor Tsft's former testimony to ths
effect that the Filipinos ars not Industrious
and asked whether this condition would
render necesssry the Importation of Chi
nese. Governor Taft ssld thst It wss to
be profoundly hoped that this would not
prove to be the esse. In general, bo
thought' thst the effect of the admission ot
tbs Chinees would be to monopolise nesrly
all ths avenues. k trsde, but It wss
mors difficult to say what the' effect would
bs on the Isbor of ths Islands.
"Has ths commission over recommended
the admission ot the Chinese?" ssksd Sen
ator Lodge.
The reply was in ths negative.
Senator Csrmack ssked whst would bs
the effect ot expressions of utter contempt
for the Filipinos by republican orators snd
referred to a speech, which, he ssld, hsd
been msds by a United States senstor,
placing the natlvs Filipinos on a level In
tellectually with Caribou bulls.
i'lllplnas a Sensitive People.
"Ths Filipinos are a ssnsltvs people," he
ssld. "and resent sny Impeachment ot
their Intelligence. They do not like to bs
characterised ss savages." '
"Or bulls," Interjected Mr. Csrmsck.
"Ntf-is bulls," assented Governor Taft.
In tbls connection Senator Lodge asked
as to the effect of utterances calculated to
encourage the Filipinos to resist tbo au
thority of ths United States, to which the
reply waa: r
"Such utterances -are a great obstacle
to ths success of our efforts." "
8enator Pstterson msds sn Inquiry as to
tbs effect of Senator Hosr's rscent spsscb
in tbs senstc. "Thst speech," he ssld,
"wss full of sympathy for ths Filipinos.
"If circulated In ths Phlllpplns Islands
would It not subject Its author to arrest snd
Imprisonment?"
Oovernor Tsft, begged to be excused
from, replying to the question st tbls Urns.
There wss mors or less discussion as to
ths presence of Amsrlcsa troops In ths
Islsnds snd Kenstor Lodge drew from Gov
ernor Tsft ths explanation tbst tbs military
fores of tbs United States bad been re
duced from 71.000 to 41,000 troops. The
governor added that he had been Informed
by the secretary of war that It wss tbs In
tention to rsducs tbs fores In tbo Imme
diate future to SO.OOO.
"Was It ths wltbdrswsl of tbs troops
tbst produced trouble?" ssksd Mr. Lodge.
"On the contrary," replied Governor
Taft, Vln the padded provinces ths effect
baa been to Increass tranquility."
Ths committee sdjourasd until next Fri

ST. LOUIS. Feb. 10. Established prece
dents of the United Btstes srmy were
overthrown snd the freedom of nearly 200
men now confined In federal penitentiaries
was assured by a decision rendered by
ths United States circuit court of appeals
today In tbo case of Peter C. Doming, a ter
mer captain of United Slates volunteers,
against Robert W. McClaughrey, wsrden of
the federal penlntentlary at Fort Leaven
worth. Doming was Imprisoned In sen
tence of a court-martial composed of nine
regular army officers, convened by General
W. R. Shatter on March 29. 1900. -Tbs
opinion of the circuit court, written
by Judge Waltsr H. Sanborn, Is thst tbs
court-msrtlsl which sentenced Uemtng
acted In violation of srtlcls 77 ot the artlclss
of wsr, which provides tbst officers of the
regulsr srmy shall not bs competent to alt
on court-msrtlsl for tbs trial of officers
snd soldiers of other forces.
The essential question,' as stated In Judge
Sanborn's opinion. Is whether the volunteer
srmy la ths same as the regular army or
whether It Is ons of tbo "other forces"
mentioned In article 77. The opinion as
tsbllsbes ths fsct tbst ths volunteer srmy
Is at all times distinct from the regulsr
srmy. Demlng will be released from the
Fort Lesenworth penitentiary within sixty
days snd sll former members of tbe volun
teer srmy who sro confined In federal pris
ons on sentences Inflicted by courts-martial
of regular officers will slso be liberated as
ths result of todsy's decision.
B. A. Roster, United Btstes district at
torney, sstlmstes the number of such esses
at 200. Demlng was a captain In tbs sub
sist snee department of tbe volunteer army.
Hs was commissioned under the set of 1899,
providing for tbs enlistment of soldiers for
ths Phlllpplns wsr. Tbs chsrge against
him related to his accounts.
Ths court-martial, compossd of nlns offi
cers of ths regular army, dismissed Demlng
from ths service snd sentenced him to
three yssrs In ths penttentlsry. This sen
tence wss affirmed by the secretary of war
and approved by the president.
In June. 1898. Judge Advocste General
Lleber decided that regular army officers
might try volunteers under tbe set of 183S,
providing for tbs enlistment of soldiers for
tbe Spsninh wsr. Under tbls ruling msny
esses wcro tried snd sentences . imposed.
The Demiug esse was ths first In which
sn sppeal was tsken. In bis opinion, Judgs
Banborn ssys thst General Shatter ' wss
prohibited by tbe lsw of ths United States
from constituting the Demlng court msrtlal
of regulsr srmy officers, snd thst tbs sc
tlon of tbe trlbunsl Is void.

Pelicatflj formed and jntly reared, women will
find. In all the sea sons of their lives, aaroaidgor wives
or mothers, that the one 8linplev wholesome remedy
which acts irently and pleasantly and naturally, and
which may be used with tmly bmficlal effects, under
any conditions, when the system needs a laxative li
Syrup of Fhrs. It Is well known to bo a simple com
bination of the laxative and carminative principles of
plants with pleasant, aromatic liquids, which are
agreeable and refreshing; to the taste and acceptable
to the system when its gentle cleansliijr Is desired.
Many of the ills from which women suffer are of
a transient nature and do not come from any organic
trouble and it Is pleasant to know that they yield 3
promptly to the beneficial effects of Syrnp of Furs,
bnt when anything more than a laxative is needed It
is best to consult the family physician and to avoid
the old-time cathartics and loudly advertised nos
trums of the present day. When one needs only to -remove
the strain, the -torpor, the congestion, or,
similar ills, which attend upon a constipated condi
tion of the system, use the true and (rent le remedy
Syrup of Figs and enjoy freedom from the depres
sion, the aches and palna, eoids and. headaches, which
are due to Inactivity of the. bowels.
Only those who buy the genuine. Syrup of FIga
can hope to get its beneficial effects and as a guar
antee of the excellence of the remedy the full name
of the company California Fig Syrup Co. Is
printed on the front of every package and without
it any preparation offered as Syrup of Figs ts fraud
ulent and should be declined. To those who know the
quality of this excellent laxative, the offer of any
substitute, when Syrup,, of Figs la called for, Is
always resented by a transfer of patronage to some
first-class drug establishment, where they do not
recommend, nor sell false brands, nor Imitation
remedies. The genuine article may be bought of all
reliable druggists everywhere at 50 ccntg per bottle. ,

It begins to look as If tbere wss going to
be a fight on tbe proposition of electing a
police judge In tba spring. Tbe old Custom
provided that a police Judge wss elected
along' with the mayor, coubcllmen and other
city officials. In November. 1899, Judge
King, democrat, and Judge Bsbcock, repub-,
llcsn, contested for the election, although
Babcock wss st thst time police Judge. Lsst
fall Judge King ran sgslnst Charles Alt
stsdt and was elected. Now some attor
neys sssert tbst Judgs King has no right
to adjust Judlclsl matters In South Omaha
for tbe reason that be was elected at a fall
Instead of a spring election.
Tbs labor party has tsken the Initiative
and announoed In Its csll for a csucus tbst
a candidate tor police Judge would be
elected. Tbe democrat call makes no men
tion of police judge, but" It Is understood
thst a candidats will run by petition. As
for tbs republicans tbe csll will not bs
Issued until Wednesdsy ot this week snd
the understanding Is tbst a police judge Is
on the list ot candidates to be voted on st
ths convention.
In sn opinion rsesntly rendered. City At
torney Lambert says that Babcock can col
lect hta back aalary. aa hs does not con
sider the election of police judge at tbe
general election according to regulations.
Should a police judgs be elected at the
coming election by any party Judge King
will have to show csuse why he Is en
titled to his office and thin will likely bring
en a lengthy trial In tbe courts.
