Y., tho principal address was delivered by Charles A. Gardiner, A. M., Ph. D., counsel for the elevated railroads ol New York city. The subject of the ad dress was "The Proposed Anglo-Amer ican Alliance." Mr. Gardiner spoke of the tendency to national conceptrution in the pres ent age, declaring that already three nations, liussin, Ureat Britain and America, comprising two races of peo- pie, the Slavic and Anglo-Saxon, prao tically dominate the world. He spoke of the continual aggression that has for more than eight centuries marked tho policy of ltuesia and has spread her sovereignty ovor areas in Europe and Asia too vast almost for human con coption.' Against this aggression, he said, Great Britain has admitted that sho can, unaided by somo other great power, make no successful opposition. Attention at the present mouiont, he said, is directed to the ItiiflfO-BriUsli contest for supremacy in China. At this critical moment, he Says, the pos sibility of an alliance with America, through consideration of her interests in tho Philippines, is seemingly Great Britain's only hope of triumph. Hald be: - "Shall America keep tiie islands? This question has tecome fundamental to the consideration of an alliance. Without the Philippines, the prejudices and environment of tho past might con trol discussion, but without them an alliance becomes the most Important piobloin of our New world relations "Ititas taken us nearly a century to push our domain across the continent and along 4,000 miles of the Pacific coast by Conquest, annexation and pur chase. Within 100 years we havo ex pnndod our territory westward over 8, 250,000 square miles. We are now on gaged in pushing" our ooast line 2,000 miles further out to Hawaii. We own tho Aleutian islands, almost at the gates of Japan, In Samoa we have naval and coaling rights. An island in the Lad rones will soon be ours. Why turn back from the Philippines? "It is objected that the islands are extraterritorial and noncontiguous; but Porto Rico is 1,000 miles from Florida; Hawaii is 2,000 miles from San Fran cisco; tho nearest point of Alaska is 600 and its furthest point 1,600 miles from Seattlo; and the Aleutian islands extend not only 2,400 miles from our borders, but into the geographical sys tem of another continent. "It is objented that military govern meiitmay have to be maintained for years, contrary to the spirit of our in stltutlons; but military government cxiBted In the Southern states from 18(18 to 1870, and in Alaska from 1808 to 1884. "It Is objooted that colonial or terri toiial government may exist indefinite- Iv, while statehood is contempluted in tho constitution; but Alaska has been a territory for 81 years, and Arizona and New Mexico for 63. It was 69 yours before Wisconsin and 83 years be- foro Montana becume states. It is objected that the inhabitants are alien races habituated to other in Btittitions and forms of government, but Florida, when acquired, was peopled by Indians and Spaniards; Louisiana by Spaniards, French and negroes ion races ana institutions existed 111 New Mexico and Arizona; and Alaska had Indians In tho Yukon and Kussiuns in Sitka. It is objectod that wo will nbrognto tho Monroe doctrine; but that doctrino, freed from its academic cobwebs, is the nonintervention of European powers in matters relating to the American con tinent. Its converse is nonintervention of America in matters relating to the European continent. That lias nothing to do with Amorioan Intervention in Asia nor with legitimate expansion of our territory in tho Orient. If we are abrogating tho doctrine, it must be be cause the Orient is exclusively for Ori entals, and not for English and litis- ans, mid Germans and French and Hollanders, who are all there now and are fast appropriating the Orient to themselves. Finally, it is objected thnt we will bo involved in entangling alliances, and will depart from precepts of Washing ton's farewell address; but Spain pro voked continuous troublo at our very doors for a hundred years, Mexico and Central and South America have had revolutions without number; Groat Britain bounds our torritory for thou sands of miles; and yot, for a century, we have avoided entangling alliances, although both propinquity and provoca tion exist. "The nutions of Europo are encen- trating their energies on the shores of the Piiolflo. England pushed through tho Canadian railway to foster her Pa cific trade. Russia is building a trans Siberian road for the same purpose; Germany and France want ports and trading areas. Of all tho nations strtigg I ing for the trade of the Paclfla, ours is the only one naturally entitled to it. London and Paris and Berlin and St. Petersburg are on the other side of the globe, but we have a Pacific coast line of 4,000 miles. The Philippines means oar animate supremacy in the Pacific They aro the easternmost boundary of the markets of the East. On one side is China, on tho other they look across to our own 'shores. Stretching 1,000 miles from north to south and 600 from east to west, they form a natural bar rier between the East and tiie Pacific. Scattered over 600,000 square miles of the ocean's surface, tho whole vast area would serve as an outpost from which to protect and develop the inter ests of America. "Faoing the Pacific and Indian oceans is more than hulf the popula tion of the globe. Exoliiding North America, the foreign comnieroe of these peoples alroady amounts to 3,500, 000,000 a year. History shows that whatever nation control this com morce controls the trade of the world Tho stake at issue Is stupendous. Noth ing less than an entire and undivided control of the Philippines would give as a base adequate for our needs. Ma nila bar, or even Luzon, for a naval and coaling station, would be too peril ous and costly a possession, will all the other islands partitioned and garri soiled by European powers. Let Eng land's experience witli India and China be a warning. India, conquored and governed, has been a mine of wealth China, exploited through the trading posts, Is a burden and a constant peril "We want tho Philippines, not Ma nila, just as England today needs Con tral China, and nqt simply Hong Kong. We own the Philippines hy right of conquest; no otlior nation does. V aro in possession; no other nation is. We can maintain stable government; Spain cannot, and tho natives aro in capable of self-rule. I can conceive no reason to give away, or sell or leaso or abandon a single foot of the territory. It would be to lessen in that proportion tho greatest opportunity .Providence ever placed before the nation. With the Philippines, Lad rones, Samoa and Hawaii, our possessions will reach across the Pacific, and its com merce will becomo the comrnorce of America In a larger degroo than of any other nation. The Pacific itself will be ours pre-eminently; oar territory will bound it on two sides; our islands will dot ita surface; and with the ocean and Its trade In onr possession, our po litical predominance will be assured among the nations of the world. Such is tho broad plane ol interna tional relations upon which alone it is wise to discuss an Anglo-American al liance." Professor Gardiner then' explainod that he did not mean an alliance as the word is understood in Europe n mill tary co-partnership but a strong com moiclal allianco, protected an arbitra tion treaty which would, In bis estium tion, hotter assure universal peace than any other thing that could be brought about. He then went on to show that America had profited more by the mar kets opened through Great Britain's etrorts than any other nation, save Great Britain herself. For these great benefits, he held, America should give 8omothing In return, and an allianco such as he suggested would make the Anglo-Saxon race masters of the world, not lees to tho advantage of Amorica than of Great Britain.

M., and an hour later dropped anohor in Fort Pond bay. General Shatter and his stuff wero landed shortly before 1 o'clock, being taken off in the auxiliary gunboat Alcan and landed at the flouting dock, aome distance away frotn tho quarantine pier. Goneral Young was at the pier at the time. The coming ashore at the float of the compandor and his staff was an expected. General Wheeler had tho oavalry drawn up at the quarantine pier and the guns waiting to salute General Shatter. Ho was not aware that General Shaftor was on shore until General Shatter and his staff had been drawn to the detention hospital in car riages. General Whoclor was a little put out when he learned that Generul Shatter bad landed. General Shaftor was in good health whon he came ashore. On tho City of Mexico besides the general and his staff came one company of the First regulur infantry. No report as to their condi tion hiiB been made. General Wheeler, when informed that General Shatter was ashore, or dered the salute of IS guns fired. It was difficult to get noar Goneral Shatter at the detention oamp, but the com mander of the Santiago campaign sent word to the correspondents that he was glad to be on Amorioan soil once more, but was sorry to learn that so many of his men had died and were still sick at Montauk. He said, however, thnt had the troops remained in Santiago they woald havo fared still worse. Surgeon Meyer, who came north on the Allegheny, had something to say today as to the condition of tho trans port. It was on this vessel that IS Ninth Massachusetts men died. Sur geon Meyer stated that when tho Alio gheny left Santiago thore were bat 12 sick men on board, but illness de veloped very quickly on the voyage, and-ohon out a few days deaths occur red at the rate of three a day. The Massachusetts men and the First 1111 nols mon wore landed from the Alio- etieny today, and the 145 sick were Bent to the hospital. The mon from the City of Mexico wore also taken 08lioro. Goneral Shaftor is now, strictly spoaklng, by reason of rank, in com mand at Camp Wikoff, but bo will not assume the reins of control until his term in the dotontion camp is finished. In an Interviow this afternoon, General Shaftor said: I enjoyed the trip north on the City of Mexico greatly, but more so on account of the ship being a prize, From a casual observation, I like Camp Wikoff. It seems just such a placo as I should have soleuted. I shall ao quaint myself thoroughly with all the details of the camp. 1 knew nothing of the Milos-Alger controversy until I was shown a paper on my arrival here.

Bids for tho New War Voneli Opened In Washington. Washington, Sopt. 8. Four firms to- doy offered bids for the three new but tleships authorized bytliilust congress. Tho lowerat bid of each for any type of one vessel follows: Nowport News Shipbuilding ' Co $3,680,000; Cramp's, Philadelphia, $3,050; Union Iron Works, Sun Fran cisco $3,674,000; Dialoguo & Co., Camden, $3,810. The result of tho bidding is eminent ly satisfactory to the navy department. From tho face of the bids it is clear that the government is going to scoure much more in the matter of power and speed than was expected; that the cost is going to be less than was paid pro portionately for the Illinois class, and, finally, that the department will be able to distribute the woik among the three big building concerns, a method of construction that always redounds to tba advantage of the government. The Newport News Company is the lowest bidder, but bids for only one ship. The highest is the Union iron works, but the act of congress makes an allowance of not to exceed 4 per cent In favor of tho Pacific bidders, so that brings tholr bid within line. The Cramps come in between thorn, and consequently the three Bhips are likely to be distributed geographically in that order. In the case of thel8-knot ships, both the Cramps and the Union Iron works submitted similar plans. The Newport News bid for the 18-knot ves sel is original with them. If it should not be satisfactory to the department, then the Cramps would probably get two ships. The bids have been taken under ad visement by Acting Secretary Allon. The bids were mado in three olusses, the first being under the plans prepared by the navy department calling .for Bhips of about 11,600 tons with a speed of 10 knots. Other classes were under plans prepared by the builders thom solves, and in some cases additional plans were prepared by the engineering brreau, but included in the original specifications sent out to bidders.
