The top of the mountain waa clearly -risible

of tlie United Bute cruiser Cincinnati, who
haa carefully bhrerved Mont Pelee. agrees
with ether expert in reporting that a new
crater ha been formed below the old one.
In the hew crater there la a great cinder
cone, more than 100 feet high, from which
ateam and volcanic matter la constantly
pouring.
It la now the unanlmoua opinion of the
scientists that this is an explosive volcano,
no real lava or moga rock material having
been emitted, only mud, steam, gases and
fragments of the old crater beda. The
scientists compare the mountain's outthrow
to the ateam of a boiler in which the pres
sure rise to bursting point, and they think
It possible that a more violent outbreak
may occur.
They remark that the explosions have oc
curred at progressively longer intervale

DUBOIS FEARS TIIE DRAGON
Idaho 8enator Deprecates Commercial Com
petition with tha Orient.
THINKS BIG CHINESE TRADE NOT POSSIBLE
Believes tatted States' Activity la
Philippines Wonld Aronac Celea
tlala from Their Lethargy
and neaolt I nprofltably.
WASHINGTON, May 23 A temperate
and carefully prepared speech waa deliv
ered In the senste todsy on the Philippine
bill by Mr. Dubois of Idaho. He conflncl
himself almost entirely to a discussion of
the commercial and Industrial aspects of
the Philippines question; his purpose being
to show that It would be a disadvantage
to the people of thla country to retain
these islanda.
Whatever of profit there might be In
them, he aald, would accrue to a few cap
italists who, by their development of the
resource of the archipelago through cheap
labor, would come Into competition with
the agriculturalists and manufacturers of
the United States in the markets of the
world. Thla government' activity in the
Philippine also would serve to arouse
China from her lethargy and once aroused
the dragon would devour the trade of the
world.
An earnest and forcible reply to Mr.
Dubola waa made by Mr. Beverldge of In
diana, who contended that the development
of Chtna'a resources would be of advantage
In trade and commerce to the United
Statea, as the Industrial development of
other nations had been.
Hale's Bill Pasaea.
Mr. Hale of Maine, from the appropria
tions committee, reported a bill making
an additional appropriation for the present
fiscal year. Aa the bill passed the house
It carried an appropriation of ISl.500.000
and the committee added $98,500. The
principal additions were for printing for
the Navy and Interior departments. The
bill was passed.
Mr. Stewart of Nevada, chairman of the
Indian affair committee, offered a Joint
resolution, which he said met some objec
tions of the president to the Indian appro
priation bill. The resolution provided for
the modification of certain provisions of
the Indian appropriation bill, relating to
the making of allotments to the Indians of
the Spokane Indian reservation to the pay
ment to certain Indiana of an amount ag
gregating $70,064, and to the settlement of
the Indian lands. The resolution - was
psssed.
Mr. Dubois then began his speech. He
aald the republican policy was "to hold the
Islands for all time as a colony and to ex
ploit them for the advantage and gain of
our own people. The minority intend to
give the people an Independent government
and to turn the islanda over to them when
they have established their own govern
ment."' He . was satisfied that there was great
danger to tha white labor of the United
States attendant upon the development of
Industrial activity by this government in
the Philippine and declared that the
United Statea could not compete with
Japan for the Oriental ' trade. China, too,
was also a menace, in his opinion, to the
aupremacy of the United States In the Ori
ental trade.
The large exportation of flour from the
United Statea to the Orient he thought had
misled people to believing that we could es
tablish there a large trade. Thla was an
Idle dream. He believed It would be but a
ahort time until the wheat needed by China
would bo raised by Chinese.
Fears Land Monopoly.
Mr. Dubois described that feature of the
bill which permitted corporations to take
up 6,000 acre of land In the Philippine
ought to he stricken out; he believed that
under It the richest landa would ultimately
fall Into the handa of great ayndlcatea, thus
encouraging a tremendoua production of
ugar, cotton and tobacco.
The total trade of the United States
with the Philippine Islanda be aald was
about $5,000,000 a year. We had spent mora
money1 In the Philippines war than all the
trade of the Islanda with the United States
would amount to In a 150 years, and every
day we remained In the Island our loss
would be increased.
Mr Beverldge declared that the whole ar
gument of the Idaho senator had been mad
for tha purpose of frightening the Ameri
can people with the dragon of China. Mr.
Dubola had maintained that when China
had adopted modern methods In the devel
opment of Its resources It would supply
not only lta. own needs, but those of the
world. It it were true, Mr. Beverldge
held, then it would be true that the United
dates ought not to encourage the devel
opment of any country. He urged that that
waa not true.
Japan had had, recently ajnost wonder
ful development and along with that de
velopment our exporta had increased from
$1,000,000 a year to more than $29,000,000 a
year. Thla would be true of China. The
exporta to China from outside, countries
amounted to about. $250,000,000 a year and
he believed that It would be possible easily
tor the United States to secure one-half
of that trade. The Phillpplnea, ha main
tained, were a door to Chinese trade.

WASHINGTON, May 2S. The president

Miss Lopes Is In Boaton and her petition
I dated there March It last. The text of
the petition covers aeveral printed pages,
but the facts and also the plea made by
Miss Lopes are summarized In the follow
ing:
Three of my brothers, Lorenzo, Clprlano
and Manuel Lopes, are prisoners in the
Inland of Tallm; all the property of my
family haa been aelsed ana we are almoat
destitute. Against two of my brothers
there Is no definite charges, nor have any
of them been allowed even a court-martial.
My other brother. Clprlano. Is accuaed.
without evidence, of having concealed fifty
guns when he surrendered with his troops
in Marcn, laoi. Moreover, four or the su
perlntendents of our estates have been nr
rested and have been Inhumanly punished
to make them give up these supposed guns.
My family has always been friendly with
tne American omcera. my oldest brother
Mariano, having rendered valuable serv
ice In pacifying several provlncea, and our
'town of Halayan Is the only permanently
pacltled town In the province of Batangaa.
The authorities In the Philippines have
refused to hear us, and, therefore, because
of such great Injuatice I have come directly
to you. Mr. President, to beg of you tb
give us justice.
8he saya that when the auperlntendents
of the estates were arrested they were
cruelly beaten, one of them dying aa a re
sult ot the blow Inflicted by the soldiers
Among the papers Is a report on the case
by Charles E. Magoon, law officer of the
division of the Insular affalra of the Philip
plnea of the War department, who recom
mended that the petition be not granted for
the following reasons :
1. That under the conditions existing In
Batancaa province in December. 1)1. Brig
adier General Bell, in the Instance under
consideration, exerclaed a lawful authority
In a lawful manner.
2. That the showing made by the papers
filed herein Is not aufflclent to overthrow
the presumption that the action taken by
the authorities in Batangaa was warranted
by the facts and the necessities of the
military situation.
The president's position In the matter la
made known through the following note of
Secretary Cortelyou to Mr. Mabel Bayard
Warren of Boaton, under data ot April 23:
The president haa received your note of
the 22d Inst, and requests me to say In
reply that he has gone carefully over with
the War department the matter of which
you write, having been In correspondence
with the authorities at Manila and in con
sultation with Governor Tsft here, and
that he doea not think anything can prop
erly be done. He will see Secretary Root
on his return from Cuba, but there ap
pears to be a concensus of opinion that n i
Injustice waa done.
