"&' "t- THE MOANING OKEGONIAN., MONDAY, JUNE 4, 1900.- ARE MEN OF PEACE Philippine Commission Can't Deal With Armed Men. JUDGE TAFT MAKES A STATEMENT Says Work of the Civil Commission. "Will Be Only Where EBCmr Has Ceased Operations. MANILA, Juno X The United States transport Hancock, from San Francisco. April 17. arrived here this momlng -with the members of the Philippine Commis sion. The members of General Mac Arthur's staff welcomed the commison.-' crs on board the Hancock. At noon tlie oomxnfcslaners landed and drove to the pal ace, escorted by General MacArthur's staff, a band and two companies -of the Twerrty-steth Infantry with artillery. At the palace the commissioners were wel comed by General MacArtbur in a short and forceful address. After Judge Taft. president of the commission, had replied, the commissioners returned to the Han cock, where they will remain until they have selected suitable dwellings. During the morning the members of the Philippine Supreme Court, the local edi tors and many of the leading merchants rapaired to the transport, where they con versed with the commissioners. Rear Admiral Remey. in command of the United States naval forces on the Asiatic Sta tion, called officially In the afternoon. To morrow General MacArtbur will return the call of the commissioners. The fam ily of Judge Taft will remain for a while in Japan. The families of the other com missioners arrived with them. Judge Taft. speaking today in reply to a representative of the Associated Press regarding the powers and future work of the commission, said: "We have full instructions and, exten sive powers. The latter we shall not ex ercise until we have had ample time to acquire sufficient knowledge of the situa tion to enable us to proceed to enact legis lative changes and reforms, preliminary to the establishment of a stable civil gov ernment. "Until we assume authority. General MacArthur will continue to perform the duties and exercise the powers formerly performed and exercised by General Otis; and, even, after we take active and full prt in the government. General Mac Arthur will continue as the active head until, on our recommendation to Presl-dent-McKlnley, It shall seem to the Presi dent that the time has arrived for the appointment of a civil executive and for making the military forces merely aux iliary In carrying on the civil government, to be available only In case of urgency for the suppression of la-w-less violence too formidable to be overcome by the reg ularly organized local police. "XVe are aware that there are several issues of deep interest to, the Philippines upon which it is our duty to take action. Some of these Involve judicial investiga tion -and decisions upon legal rights.. Others call for the careful exercise of political power In order to receive equitable ad justments. Upon the latter class of Issues we cannot now speak. "Representing the sovereignty of the United States in the Philippines, which it is the purpose of our government to maintain, we are here to do justice to the Filipinos and secure for tlhem the best government In our power, and such a measure -of popular control as is con sistent with the stability and -security of law. order and prosperity. Wo are civil officers, men of peace. The field of our work Is necessarily confined to regions whore the armed enemy has ceased his operations. "We cannot deal with armed men. General MacArthur -and the army will do that. "When those now In arms shall have laid them, down, relying as they cer tainly can, upon justice, generosity and the clemency of the United States, we shall give them all a full hearing upon the policy to be pumied and the reforms to be initiated. We purpose to Inaugurate as comprehensive a school system throughout the Islands as circumstances will allow. I am surprised that Manila has not received pews regarding the Spooner bill, a measure calculated to help us greatly In our work here." While In Hong Kong the commission ers questioned Armacho and members of the wealthy Cortez family regarding Fili pino affairs not covered by the Filipino junta there. The Filipinos in Manila are now anxlqusly and even nervously wait ing rfor .a. formal statement by the com mlvrton regarding Its future policy. Ev erything the commissioners say or do Is carefully considered. Cables from Hong Kong have been published here to the effect that the commission "will not as sume control until September.. This re port, coupled -with the statement thai Washington approves General Mac Arthur's plan of campaign has created considerable excitement in Filipino cir cles, where it has been expected that Im mediate changes -of policy and action would follow the arrival of the commis sion. It should be understood that the fore going declaration of Judge Taft Is in no sense intended as a proclamation. FAST WHEELING AT NEWARK ICramer and Torn Cooper Created Mnch. Enthusiasm. NEW YORK.

Easiness Wltfeaat Le, ef Any - ef Its Investment. WASHINGTON, June 3. "The settle ment of the Pacldc Railroad Indebtedness must be ranked as one of the greatest achievements of President McKinley's ad ministration," said General Charles Dick, Member of Congress from the Nineteenth District; of Onto, end Secretary of -the Re publican National Committee. "All efforts, either by Congress or the executive departments, prior Jto 1S97, were" of little avail in protecting the Govern ment's interests in these roads. In fact, there.were grave doubts whether the Gov ernment would succeed in being reim bursed, even In part, the vast sum ex pended by 'the United States in aid" of their construction. But the Government has realized In cash or Its" equivalent, within two years, the sum of J124.42i.671 out of about $130,030,000 that was due, and more than half the money- collected was for accrued Interest that baa. not been paid.' , . "The discovery of gold In California.; the rapid Increase In wealth and' population in the' territory west of the Rocky Moun tains, and a movement on the part of the older states to establish closer connec tions during the Civil War with those out lying communities, led Congress in 1562 to authorize the construction of a rail road to the Pacific Ocean. The? -direct benefit to be derived by tlje Government was its use for postal, military and. other purposes. The act of July 1. 1S62, charter ing the Union Pacific Railroad Company, was not sufficiently liberal, and therefore nothing was accomplished under its pro visions. Though the Union Pacific Com pany was organized no one was found who wouCd venture money In the construc tion of the road. "On July 2, 1834, Congress 'amended the act of T62, by making provisions more, favorable to the companies. The act of 1S62 provided that the Goyerninent should have a first mortgage on the property of the company, while the- act of 1S64 pro vided substantially that, for the bonds the Government should Issue.-In aid of the construction of the road, it should take a second mortgage. Two companies were organized under the provisions of the act of 1S64, and entered energetically, upon the work of construction. The road was built from the California end east ward by the Central Pacific Railroad Com pany, and from the Missouri River west ward to the common meeting joint at Ogden by the Union Pacific Company. "Their lines were united May 10,. 1S59,' anticipating' by more than seven y.ears the time .required by Congress. The Union Pacific Company constructed 1034 miles, and the Central Pacific 743 miles. The road of the latter company -was subse quently extended. 140 miles;'aad the lines of the two companies from. the. Missouri River t a San Francisco represented a mileage of 1917 miles. The AaoHBt or Aid. In1 aid of these roads and connect ing branches, the United States Issued bonds to "the amount of $64,623,512. Fall ing to be reimbursed for the Interest paid on these bonds, It became necessary ln protection of the Interests of the Gov ernment, to pass the act of May 7, 1S73, known as the Thurman act This act provided that the whole amount of com pensation which might from time to time be due to the railroad companies for serv ices rendered the Government shouM be retained by the Gpvernment. one-half to be applied to the liquidation of the inter est paid and to be paid by the United States upon the bonds issued to "each of the companies, the other half to "be turned Into" a sinking fund. But it soon became apparent that, with the approaching ma-, turlty of bonds issued In aid of the roads the provisions of the 'Thurman act were n- adequate, to the protection of the Gov ernment's Interests. Efforts were persist ently made looking to a settlement of this vast 'Indebtedness, but without success. So .recently as the 54th Congress an at tempt was made to pass a bill to refund the debts of the Pacific Railroad Com panies, but It was defeated In the House by a vote of 16T noes and 102 ayes. "On January 12. 1S97," continued General Dick, "the day following the defeat of th funding bill, the Attorney-General was Informed by the President that default had occurred In -the payment of the Union Pacific and the Kansas Pacific indebted ness to the Government, and he was di rected to moke -arrangements to secure, as far as practicable, the payment of their indebtedness. An agreement was entered Into between the Government and the re organization committee of the Union Pa fie Railroad, by which the committee guaranteed, should the Government under take to enforce its Jlen by sale, a mini mum bid for the Union and Kansas Pacific lines that would produce to the Govern ment, over and above 'any prior liens and charges upon the railroads and sinking fund, the net sum of $45,754,059 99. In per formance of this agreement the bid was guaranteed by.a deposit of $4,500,000. The Foreclosnre Proceedings. "Bills , were then filed - in the United States Circuit Courts for the foreclosure of the Government Hen. The decrees en tered for the sale of the roads not oelng satisfactory to thet Government, papers were prepared for an appeal. Then tho reorganization committee came' forward witfiian offer to Increase"lts bid to $50.- OM.OOQ,' instead of $45,754.0j9j99. Subsequent ly, to eiue.au ppuiixa qipuie, me re organization committee decided to aban don this second bid and to increase the minimum -amount- to be offered for the property to $58,445,223 7$. being the total amount due the Government on account of the Union Pacific Road, as stated by the Secretary of the Treasury, including the sum of $4,549,36$ 26 cash, in the sinking fund. Such an amount was bid by the reorganization committee on November 1, 1897, and the sa-e was confirmed by the court on November 6, 1S37. After tho con firmation of the sale, the whole amount was paid Into the Treasury of the United States In convenient Installments, thus re lieving the Government from any loss whatever upon Its claim for principle and interest, due upon its subsidy, and bring ing to a final and most satisfactory termi nation one of these long-standing and troublesome questions. "In the case of the Kansas Pacific in debtedness, by decree of the court an up set? price on the sale of the property was fixed at a sum which would yie-d to the Government $2,500,000. ,Tho reor ganization committee in conference with the Government declared Its purpose of making no -higher bid than that fixed by tho decree of the court, so that the Gov ernment was confronted with the danger of receiving for Its' total ".len, upon this line, amounting to nearly $13,000,000, prin cipal or-d Interest, only the sum of $2,500, 000. Believing the Interest of the Gov ernment required that an effort should be made to obtain a larger sum, and the Government having the right to redeem the Incumbrances t upon the property, wSjlch were prior to the lien of the Gov ernment subsidy, by paying the sum law fully due In respect thereof ou,of the Treasury of the United States, the Presi dent, on February 'S. 1S9S. authorized the Secretary of the Treasury- to pay the amounts lawfully due upon the prior mort gages upon the .eastern and middle di visions of said road. "Then the reorganization committee of the Kansas Pacific pffered to bid for the road a sum which would, realize .to the Government the whole amount of the principal-of tho debt, Sj6.S03.000. It was be lieved that no better price than this could he .obtained .at a later date If the sale should ,be postponed, and- It was deemed best to permit 'the -sale--to-proceed upon the guarantee of a minimum bid which would realize to the Government the whole principal ef its'debt. The sale therespon took pitce, hd the property was purchased by ifee reorganisation com mittee. Too sum yielded t the Govern ment was $6,308,oao1 It will thus be per ceived that the Gi)venent secured an advance of $3,E03,ceo on account of Its lien, over and aboVe the' sum which the eourt had fixed as the :upset price, and which the reorganization commit tee had declared ,waa tho maximum wnich tney were truing to pay for the property. Sale Of the TJnlsn. PaclHc. "The result of these proceeding against the Union Pacific .system, embracing the main -line and the Kansas Pacific line. Is that the Governirient has received, on account of Its sutxtidy claim, the sum of $64,ial.223 75, which ;is an Increase of $1S. 997,163 76 over the sum yrhlch the reor ganization committee ftrs.t agreed to bid for the joint property, leaving due the sum ot $6,588,200 19 Interest on the Kan sas Pacific subsidy. The prosecution of a claim for this amount .against the re ceivers of the Union Pacific Company In 1E9S resulted in securing to the Gov ermnent the further amount of $521,89770.

(Hie amount then due to the United States 'for principal and Interest upon its subsidy liens upon the Central Pacific and West ern Pacific Railroads was $58,812,715 43, more than one-half of which was accrued Interest upon the principal debt. Tho agreement for settlement, provided for the funding of this amount Into promis sory -notes bearing date of February 1, 1899, payable respectively on r before the expiration of each successive six months for 10 years, each note being for the sum of $2,940,635 78, or one-twentieth of the total amount due The notes bore inter est at the rate of 3 per cent per annum, payable semi-annually, and had a condi tion attached to- the effect that, if de fault be made eJliher In the payment of principal or Interest of jither of said notes or in any part thereof., then all of the- notes outstanding,, principal and in terest, immediately became due and pay able, notwithstanding' any other stipula tion ot the agreement of th,e settlement. "It Is, further arreed that the payment of principal and interest of the notes should be secured by the deposit with the United States Treasury of $57,820,000 face value of first refunding mortgage 4 per cent gold bonds, to be thereafter Issued by the, Central Pacific or Its successor having- charge of the railroads then owned by the company, such bonds to be part of an Issue of not exceeding $100,000,000 In all. and to be secured by mortgage upon all .railroads, equipments and terminals owned by the Central Pacific Railroad Company, the mortgage being a first lien upon the property. Central anil Western Pacific "In pursuance of another provision of the agreement, the .four earliest maturing notes were purchased by- Speyer & Co., March 10. 1899. and the proceeds, amount ing to $11,762,543 12. and accrued Interest to date of payment. $3a,771 02, In all $11. 7SS,314 14,, were received by the Treasury March 27, 1899, as part payment of the indebtedness' of the Central Pacific and Western Pacific RallroadCompanles. The properties of the -various companies com prising the Central Pacific system were subsequently conveye"d to,a new corpora tion called the Central pacific Railway Company, which latter exexmted the mort gage and bonds provided for by the agree ment of settlement. "On October 7, 1839. "bond? were delivered to the Treasury Department by the Cen tral Pacific Railway Company to secure the outstanding notes, held by the Treas ury. The United States.. therefore, holda the notes of the Central Pacific Railroad Company guaranteed by te Southern Pa cific Railroad Company to 'the amount of $47,050,172 36, bearing' interest payable semi annually at tho rate of 3. per cent per F annum, and secured by the depostt.of an equal amount oi iirav-morcgage oonas ol the Pacific Railway Company, thus pro viding, beyond any doubt, for the sure andgradual payment of the who'e of this subsidy debt, and providing In the mean time for the payment of interest at the rate of 3 per cent upon t the unpaid bal ances.

He Made a Passenger Pass the Hat and Collect the Valnahles of His' FelloTr Travelers. RAYMOND, CaU June 3. The lone high wayman, who yesterday held up three Yo semitS stages and two wagons, and two United States cavalrymen. Is still at large. Additional details reveal that the number of people held up "numbered 32, 27 men and five women. Major Rucker and" Captain Wilcox. U. S. A., with 6S'raen of Troop F. who were on the way 'to the Yosemlte, reached the scene Just as the robber was about to open the express-box. "Seeing the troopers, he disappeared in the brush. The robbery occurred near, Grub Gulch, and the robber showed excellent judgment In the selection 'of his ground. A long stretch of sand covered by brush Is met at this point,' and wagons are compelled to go slowly, as the pulling Is hard on the horses. The road agent manifestly knew the situation perfectly, for this Is the sea son In which travel to the Yosemlte is heaviest, and he might figure on realizing handsomely. The. stages held up are the ones that leave .Raymond In the morning for Wawona, en route to Yosemlte Valley. The rush to the valley has been so great of late that extra coaches bad to bo put on to accommodate the tourists. A. H. Foster, one of the oldest employes of the stage company, was the first to make the acquaintance of the bandit. He was taking a party of tourists to the Mar iposa big trees. As he reached the top of a small hill he was commanded to halt by the lone highwayman, who ordered him to drive to one side. Tho passengers were ordered to hand over ''their valuables, the robber getting- $80. Instead of ordering the 'team on, the road agent held It an. hour and a half, when two soldiers of Ttood F. Sixth Cav alry, came along; The robber covered" the, soiaiers" ana ordered them to hand over their guns, after which he had them tie their horses to a tree hear by and" join the pther party. The next victim was a Spaniard with a -wood wagon. About 2b minutes elapsed before the first stage came along, In charge of Bright Gil lespie, with the following passengers: The Misses Atherton, of England; Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Drake, of St. Paul; Mr. and -Mrs. Thomas H. Griffin, of San Francisco; Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Hart, of Berkeley, and S. R, Bobanjl, of Bombay. Before the passengers realized that the affair was no joke, the stage was pulled up and the men were clambering down. The lone highwayman's manner was quiet and easy, his orders'came clear and cool from behlna the handkerchief. "Climb down there; hurry up no excep tions. Line up there. .Now, you there, pass the hat." - The dignified gentleman indicated by an effective gesture with tthe rifle was T. H. Griffin. He walked bareheaded up and down the line and collected. .Then he was orderea to chip In hlmselffHe ten dered his hat to the robber, but he "was ,not satisfied. - ... - . "You've got more than"that," .he 'said; "turn out your pockets." ' t They did so. revealing stray nickels and quarters, which they were allowed to keep. "Climb in," was the next order. The hat was accepted, emptied, returned to the owner. "The ladles must have the money" was followed by a chorus of "Oh, no," while one dropped $10 on the floor of the stage. The next stage carried the mall and ex press, drivenby Thomas Skelton, who was ordered to throw 'out the express-box and to line up. Next came another stage, driven by Ernest Stevens, with five Chinese- The Chinese were ordered- to hand over their valuables but they sad, "No sabbe talk." The robber leveled his rifle on them, saying: "You can't fool me as they did on the Big Oak Flat rood." The Chinese" then turned their pockets inside out, and the robber obtained. $15. After waiting some time the robber or dered all the teams to drive on, telling the soldiers to get Into one of the stages, and ordering two of the passengers to mount the saddle horses and go down the road and stay half an hour before returning. The passengers started out, but had not gone ovpr 300 yards when they met Major Rucker and Captain Wilcox with the cav alrymen. Upon being Informed of the situation tho officers hurried to the scene of the hold-up. In the meantime the rob ber attempted to open the express-box, but, seeing the soldiers upon him, disap peared in the brush, leaving the express box unopened, a box containing clothing for disguise, cartridges and field glasses. The cavalry scattered In pursuit, but after ward gave up the chase. The robber spoke with a Swedish accent, and his description corresponds with that of the man who held up two stages at Big Oak Flat on May IS, He gave the driver of one of the stages a card bearing the legend, "The Black Kid." saying: "I hope we will get better acquainted, old man." From the three stages he collected about $250. Hotasebrealcers Fall'te Death. NEW YORK, June 3.
