U'H tlie aeriiiineiit of tlie nation for Hie
l-enefit of all coficerned."
In r ly Governor Geer lent the fol
lowing dmpali'h :
"You a k my opinion ai to 'how a
rail for mora rolunteera for aervica in
the I'hilippinea would be ai.awered.' I
have no meana of knowiiiK, aave by the
tfneral kiiowli-d.-e that when the flmt
call waa in ado laat year, the only Ji.ajr
poiiitinerit ihown any where waa by thoe
who tried to enlikt and were rejected,
and Dial if the ih-aire to enliat then waa
haiu-d on uriaelllali patriotiain (and there
ran l no doubt of thU), in tlie event of
rail for tnoro volunteer! to bold the
fruit of the !'ianiiili war and to give
Ieweya fittory a eriiianent daie in
hiaiory, Oregon would furnirk her quota
aa promptly ai any at ale in the Union.
"It ia to be hoped that thii emer
gency may not ariae, but It ia believed
that the i fTirt Jtwl now Wing induntri
onily made to render the American oc
fupationof the I'hilippinei unpopular
ha a olitical pliaae a!tKether, and ii
intended aolely to affect the presidential
election a year hence. I
"Thia country haa never engaged in a
war, either foreign or domeatir, where
there waa not a at iteming minority buoily
acrificing patriotism to partisinnhip,

!''The Ore if. m troop hare won national

Spaniarda, because there. -have been
none there to Oght; they enliated pe't

ihown no diacontent, lave when de
prived of active aeryice. Since taking
the field they have proved their elfi
ciency and aoldierlr qualities, and I have
no evidence whatever of their deire to
abandon tlie conteit they were 10
anxiouato undertake.
I "War la lo be deprecated at all times,
and it ia hoed that no call for addi
tional troops may be neceasary,' but in
the national emergency involving the
surrender of valuable pumieatiiona by a
' nation of 70.000,000 of people to a band

depended upon to do her whole duty

"WhyJi General Lawton needed at

teing left entirely to hie discretion.

Naw Yoaic. April 17 A Hong Kong
letter to the World aavi: "We are weak
and you are strong," laid Ir. Gallicano
Arairble, the head of the Filipino junta
here, "but we have an sl y and you hate
none. We have 70,000 etanda of arm!
and 30,000 trooi in the field, at. I aulfi-
cient material to make cartriL-e to
supply our troops for four yean to come.
"Our ally ia the climate of the Philip
pine!. Your bullets cannot kill one of
our men where diaeaae will kill 'JO of
yonri once you begin your advance into
the interior. We will harass your ad
vane at the same time that we welcome
it.
"We cannot fight pitched bat' lea with
you, and we do not need to. We shall
be here today and there tomorrow, at
tacking, then flying. You can no more
catch ua or conquer u than ou can the
wind."
Youth seems to be the invariable firtt
requirement of leadership among the
Filipinos. Oulv the younger generation
of half breed have had the advantage
of education. Dr. Apairble and Dr.
Santos (after Apairble the moat promi
nent member of the Hong Kong Junta)
are under 25, and both have received
the degree of doctor of laws in Spain.
Between them and the numerous
young men who are their associates and
the mass of Filipinos, there is about as
much reeeinhlance aa between a quad
roon and a full-blood negro. They were
led to organize the rebellion by a priest ;
prieeta educated them, and, by the irony
of fate, they now bold hundreds of friars
as prisoners.

Manila, April 17. A Urge commis
sion of Filipinos is said to have been ap
pointed to confer with General Otia to
the end of securing peace, according to
General Lagarxla. The Americans, how
ever, believe thia commission, which will
number a score or more of wealthy Fili
pinos, want to protect their property
rather than end the war. The object of
the rebel commissioners is said to be to
secure aa many rights of self-government
aa possible, demand that all the
otllcei be reserved for Filipinos and
Americana, and restore peace. One of
Agulnaldo'a late chiefs in Manila de
clares the rebel chief would now be glad
to receive overtures, and would sign g
peace treaty.
Agnlnaldo ia said to have moved his
headquarters to Tarland, 'far to the
northward. At Calumpit the forces of
the Americana have been largely augmented.

Nkw York, April 17. A special to the
Herald from Washington says: When
Bhown a dispatch announcing the recall
of General Lawton, Brigadier-General
Suhwan, acting adjutant-general, said it
was in accordance with the understand
ing at the war department as to the
purpose of General Lawton's campaign.
"General Otia sent this expedition to
Southern Lueon," he continued, ''for
the purpose of destroying any insurgent
forcea that might be found there, to
make a careful reconnoissance of the
territory and to spread broadcast the re
cent proclamation of tne Philippine com
mission, setting forth the purposes of
i this government with respect lo the is
lands. I expect he will clear all the
Wabiii.nutox, April IS. The navy de
partment haa given out the following dis
patch from Admiral Dewey :
"Manila, April IS. Secretary of the
Navy, Washington: Yorktown visited
Baler, east coast of Luzon, P. I., Aptil
12, for the purpose of rescuing and bring
ing away the Spanish force, consisting of
80 soldiers, three officers and two priets
w ho were surrounded by 400 insurgent!.
Some ot the insurgents were armed with
Mauser rifles, by natives. Lieuten
ant J. C. Gilmore, while making '
ambushed were Bred upon and captured.
Their fate ia unknown, aa the insur
gents refused to communicate afterward.
The following are missing: OtHcer pre
viously referred to, Chief Quartermaster
W. Walton, Coxswain J. Ellsworth,
Gunner's Mate Edward J. Nygard, Sail
makers' Mate Vanboit, Seaman W. II.
Rynder and O. W. Woodbury, Appren
tices D.G. A. Venville, A. Peterson,
Ordinary Seamen S. Brisolese, 0. D.
McDonald, Landsman L. P. Edwards,
F. Anderson, J. Dillon and C. A.
Morrissey. Dkwsy."
The dispatch caused much excitement
in naval circles as soon as its contents
bocarne known. It was received late in
the day, and considerable delay waa oc
casioned by the blindness of some of the
cipher words. It waa imcsible to com
pletely decipher it, and the asterisks in
dicate the unintelligible words.
The capture of the York town's men
was discussed with much feeling. The
misfortune was felt with added keenness,
aa the navy has prided itself thus far on
immunity from reverses. The admiral's
dispatch waa the first knowledge the de
partment had that the Yorktown had
gone on the special mission to relieve the
Spanish garrison at Baler. That the
capture should have been effected while
the American forces were on a mission of
mercy towards the Spaniards, rather
than in the prosecution of a campaign,
leads to the belief that Spain will have
ne further grounds for questioning the
good faith with which the Americans are
seeking to relieve the condition of the
Spanish prisoners.
Washington, April IS. The follow
ing important diplomatic changes have
been announced as the result of the
cabiuet meeting today :
W. W. Iiockhill, now minister to
RrcAKKiT, March 14. At daybreak
I waa startled from my ileep at the
bootna of caunon firing at intervals of
everp few minutei and which kept oa
until 10 a. m., when the 101st waa fired.
On inquiring for the reason I waa in
formed that it was in honor of the cele
bration of Koumania'i day in which she
waa declared a kingdom and the royal
pair crowned into royalty, and which
took place on the 14-26th day of Mrcb,
1SS8, ten years after the battle with
Turkey for its independence and io
which they came out ivictorious and de
clared themselves Independent soon,
after. The business! places are all cov
ered with Roumanian tricolor flags and
f the day ia nice a military parade will
take place in the afternoon, but such is
doubtful, because the weather is miser
ably wet from a small covering ot snow,
which fell during the night and this
morning it looks more like snow or rain,
coming than a clear day.
The students ofRoumania all struck
last week and made great demonstra
tions, owing to the laws passed lately io
the senate as regards the recruiting of
students because the duties imposed oa
them were unbearable. Day before
yesterday no less than 2,000 students
went in a body to the senate to demand
a modification in the laws passed. The
chaumanof the senate, Mr; Demetnn
Sturza fearing harm had two platoons of
gendarme stationed before the entrance
and he himself met the students and
told them that he would receive the
delegation and see what he could do for
them. This satisfied them and the re
sult of the senate ia awaited with much
impatience and it is said, that the stu
dents are about to declare the strike off.
they being sure the senate will do what
is right by them .
Will communicate more in my next.

Robbed the Grave.
A startling incident of which Mr. Job a
Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject,
is narrated by him as follows: "I was
in a most dreadful condition. My skin
was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongne
coated, pain continually in back and
sides, no appetite gradually growinn
weaker day by dajr. Three physicians
bad given me up. Fortunately, a friend
advised "Electric Bitters," and to my
great joy and surprise, the first bottle
made a decided improvement I continued
their use for three, weeks and am now
a well man. I know they sayed my life,
and robbed the grave of another victim."
