MITCHELL SAY5 112,000 MEN QUIT X Violence Reported Thai Far Pre dictions a to the Xicngrth of the Strike. HAZLETON, Pa., Sept 17. The great struggle between the anthracite coal min ers of Pennsylvania and their employers "was begun today. Bach side Is confident of winning, and neither of the contending forces shows any disposition td yield. The contest thus far has been devoid of any violence. The exact number of men who struck cannot at this time be told. Reports re ceived by the United Mine-workers' offi cials from the entire anthracite .region wee to them most satisfactory. In this territory, known as district No. 7, there ere 16O00 men empldyed In and about the mines. Of this number, it is conserva tively estimated that about 50 per cent obeyed the order of President Mitchell to Quit work. Five thousand of these belong ix the collieries which did not work at all, and the remaining 2000 to mines which work short-handed. The district south of this placo, known as the South Side, was tied up completely with the exception of Colerainc, Beaver Meadow and -Carson's "Washerles. In this territory the United Mlneworkers are very Etrong. On the north side, the Upper liehigh, Milnesvllle, Bbcrale and Drifton No. 1 collieries, em ploying about 1500, are shut down. The mines at Lattlmer and Pond Creek, em ploying 1200, are working full, but every other mine in that big territory Is work ing -with badly crippled forces. Three of the Markle mines, over which there has been so much contention, worked all day vrtth about 65 per cent of the men. On the "West Side every colliery started up today minus its union men, except at the Hazle mines, where the union miners went to work in consequence of a misunder standing. Hazleton today presented an animated appearance, strikers from all the sur rounding mining towns coming in early in the day and gathering in groups on the street corners and discussing the sltua-t tlon. It -vas a most orderly crowd. Around strike headquarters, at the Val ley Hotel, there was more or less of a crowd of men all day. President Mitch ell, who arrived from the West last night, was kept busy all day and evening, receiv ing reports from every section of the re-. gion. Messengers bringing information to him from near-by points kept coming reg-' ularly. Mr. Mitchell decided an Important point today In the matter of arbitration. Last week the miners employed by G. B. Mar- klo & Co. decided not to strike until the Arm had passed upon a set of their own grievances, which differ somewhat from those of the United Mlneworkers. The firm has an agreement with its men that if any differences fall of adjustment, then the grievances Hhall be arbitrated. John Markle, of the firm, yesterday agreed to have Archbishop Ryan, of Philadelphia, arbitrate the differences, if the mediators already decided upon by the firm and the men cannot come to a satisfactory agree ment. President Mitchell, however, stated today that (he should ask tho men em ployed by Markle to cease work. The men might gain concessions through arbitra tion, he said, but it was now a case of securing a uniform settlement throughout the anthracite region. About 100 foreign-speaking miners left Hazleton today, and will take a steamer for Europe. These men expecf a. long strike, and, rather than remain idle here, they preferred to go to their former homes. President Mitchell tonight gavo out the following statement: "Informaition received up to tonight shows that 112,000 mlneworkers are on strike in the anthracite region. Of this number, 72.C00 are in district No. 1; 30.000 In district No. 3, and 10,000 in district No. 7. Reports received are to the effect that & large number of those who went to the mines today will join In the suspension tomorrow. The number of nen now out on strike exceeds that of any other Indus trial contest in the history of our country-" THE FOUR. GREAT DISTRICTS. Strike Leaders Working Hard, to Control the Situation. PHILADEL.PHA, Sept. 17. The hard coal region is divided into four great dis trictsthe Lackawanna, "Wyoming, Le high and Schuylkill regions. In the first two, representing nearly 90,000 men, -the tie-up Is practically complete. Only one mine, employing a lew hundred men, is being operated, and this the strikers say that they hope to close soon. In the Le high region the situation Is a stand-off, about 8000 of the 1C.OO0 employes having quit. Principally because the union has comparatively little strength, in the Schuylkill and workmen there have no decided grievances, as in other districts, the strike -was not general among the -upward of 50,000 "men employed. Indica tions tonight, however, point to the closing tomorrow of some mines in the last named district that operated today despite the assortion of officials of the Philadelphia & Reading Coal Company and other compa nies" operating in the region that they will continue their collieries. Nearly all the efforts of the strike leaders are being de voted to organizing the men in the Schuyl kill and Lehigh regions and tbnlght their organizers and orators are redoubling their efforts. No events worth mentioning have marked the first day of the struggle. Practically no progress has yet been made in the efforts of some of the clergy to bring about a settlement of tho trouble through arbitration. IASSGTH. OF THE STRIKE. An Operator Predicts It "Will Last a Week. NEW YORK, Sept. 17. "William T. S. Thorne, a director of the Pennsylvania Coal Company, made this statement today after a talk with the company's mine su perintendent over the long distance wire: "We operated 13 collieries; all but tw6 are closed. The strike appears to be quite general throughout the mining districts. Many men have reported at our mines, but hardly enough to justify working the two collieries, so that It is probable that they will be closed. The tie-up will doubt less last a week and then the men will be gin to get dissatisfied and will want to re turn to work. The miners have no griev ances, and as far as we can learn, they have not sufficient resources to carry on a protracted strike. The miners re ceived, on an average, ?2 40 a day. I have never seen 8-year-old boys or girls at work in the mines. The miners are ask ing 10 to 15 per cent increase in wages. The operators can hold out for at least six months. It is our custom to carry on our books for six months in advance. "We have a fair supply on hand. Retailers, especially in the country, hold good-sized stocks. I think the situation justifies an -advance in prices. We anticipate no trou ble at our mines. Extra watchmen have been hired, but this is 4he only precaution which we have taken." Confidence of Gompers. 6HAMOKIN, Pa., Sept. 17. The col lieries operated by the Mineral Union, Philadelphia & Reading Coal & Iron Com panies, and by individual operators in the suburbs of this placo and employing between 9500 and 10,000 men and boys -were completely tied, up this morning by the strike. At the United Mlneworkers' beadquarterst the leaders claim 75 per cent of the workers in the Mount Carmel and Locust Gap districts did -not -report for work. The operators had no figures to give out. Several fist -fights occured between strikers and men going to work. Samuel Gompers, of the American Fed eration of Labor, said today that there is no doubt as to. final victory for the men, as the conditions were so extremely bad that any movement on their part would be advantageous, and Inasmuch as the movement is so general, the advantage will be correspondingly great. Detective Sent For. WILKESBARRE. Pa.. Sept. 17. Tho miners' strike has tied up nearly all the collieries in the Wyoming region. After hearing reports from the mines, the rep resentatives of tho big coal companies and operators went Into conference. They do not look for a compromise now and are going to prepare for the worst. It is known that detective agencies in Pitts burg, Chicago and New York have re ceived orders to send a large number of operatives to the Wyoming region at once. MAN WITH THE IRON MASK Death of a Fbbosi Patient at Belle roe Hospital. , NEW YORK, Supt 17. The Bellevue Hospital patient- known as the" "Man With the Iron Mask" Is dead. Thomas Oliver Colt was his name. He was re lated to the family of gunmakers of that name, .and was born in Connecticut. At tho age of 15, while playing ball, he was struck in the face by a. ball, his cheek bones being fractured and his nose brok en. Erysipelas folowed and the nose was lost, as was a portion of his face. He was brought to Bellevue Hospital by his par ents, the head of the surgical division of that institution being Professor Thomas C. Sabine, who heard tho story and said he would make the boy a nose. The result was the first Sabine operation -as it is now known. Colt's left hand was placed on his face and the third -finger relieved of tho nail and was placed on the bridge of the nose. It took two months to grow there, while it was held in position by a plaster cast, and then It was cut from the hand at the second joint. Thirty-two operations and two years in the hospital gavo a new face to Colt. " " In 1SSG he married Miss Pate, of Orange, N. J. She said she reciprocated his affec tion because of his mind. In November, 189G, he shot her. In New Jersey, and then shot himself. Both lived, and he was tried for murder. He was convicted and sen tenced to 15 years in the penitentiary. After-serving two years he was pardoned. He took every means of concealing his features when in public In August he was admitted to Bellevue Hospital, suf fering from Bright's disease. He was fear ful that other patients would see his face, so he kept it muffled and became known to tho other patients as the "Man With the Iron Mask." DAILY CITY STATISTICS. "Real Estate Transfers.

C, Sept. 17 Among the advices; brought by the Breconshire from China were stories of the arrest of Chi nese with the heads of foreign soldiers In sacks. It seems that head money of 50 taels Is paid for each head. This fact was hrought to light by the discovery of the private papers of Viceroy Yu;Lu, of Tien Tsln. In his daybook there is aa entry which reads: "Taels, 100, paid for the heads of two American marines killed in. the advance for the relief of Tien Tsln. Taels, 50, for the two guns captured on the same occasion." ' The entry explains many ghastly inci dents which have been recounted of the killing of wounded. When Captain Beyt and three marines with him fell at the engagement before Hsi arsenal, attempts were made to decapitate them. The next night some Chinese found hidden in. the millet and trying' to escape were bayo neted. One clung with great tenacity to a bag -which, when opened, was found to contain the head of a United States ma rine gunner, Watkins, Refused to "Work. BLOOMSBERG, Pa., Sept. 17.

DENVER, Sept. 17. The Republican party of Colorado met ln-v state, conven tion here today with a better representa tion than tb.e jparty has shown for a number of yearB. There were no con testing delegations, and perfect harmony was apparent, mere -was Dur one cu-nui-date for Governor Frank C. Goudy, of Denver. - - ' - - 1 t At 11:15 A. M. State Chairman A. B. Seaman, called the convention to order. After treating of the .cal',., Frank J. Goudy nominated A. M. Stevenson, until a month ago state chairman of the Silver Republican nartv of Colorado, as tempo rary .chairman., Mr. Stevenson's election j ovation. In his. speech he aroused enthu siasm by his declaration that the flag had been attacked, and until that ques tion had been settled the people of Colo rado must sink all others. For aenreant-at-arms the , chair ap pointed Sherman Bell, of Teller County, ' saying he was "ono of the boys wno weni up San Juan Hill with Teddy:" The band played "A Hot Time" and the convention stood up and cheered. , . It, was ordered that the chair appoint committees of 12 each on permanent) or ganization and resolutions. While these committees were being selected, Senator Wolcott, on the invitation of the conven-, tlon, delivered an address. He spoke a few words to tho Silver Republicans who have returned to the Republican party, and then took up the present state admin istration. His arraignment of Governor Charles S. Thomas was -most severe. He declared that in, the last two- years the credit of the state had been so impaired that warrants were now offered for sale ; at 50 cents on the dollar. Fraudulent use of the police department in the Demo cratic primaries for Governor Thomas' tickets was charged. Committees on per manent organization and resolutions .were named and a -recess was taken, until 3 o'clock. - When the convention reassembled, James M. Downing; of Aspen, who has been prominent in this state as a Silver Republican, was chosen permanent chair-! man. The selection, of the State Central' Committee was made, . Charles n. pora, of Colorado Springs, being elected chair man. ' fc Brigadier-General . Irving Hale .was called upon for an address, and respond ed briefly. He said that In ponsequence of eight years served In the regular Army after his graduation at West, Point his first vote was cast in, 1S9S, and was for Mr. Bryan, because he believed in silver. He declared that this belief vhad not changed, but that sllyer was not the great ' Issue of the hour. The present question, he declared, was that of maintaining the honor of the country and ,the flag; The nomination of a 'ticket was next taken up. Several names had been. prom inently mentioned in. connection with the office of Justice of the Supreme Court, but only one was presented that', of G. C, Bartels, of Denver. He was nojnlnat ed by acclamation. '. , For Governor. E. M. Cranston placed before the convention the,name. of Frank C. Goudy. The nomination was seconded by almost every delegation in the con- ventlon, and tne nomination was mane unanimously. Mr. , Goudy spoke at seme length.

Colonel Bryan began his day's work at Spring field, Mo., at 5 o'clock this morning, and made three speeches before breakfast. It was barely daj'light when Springfield wast reached, but, notwithstanding the early hour, there was a large crowd awaiting the arrival of the train. There were some women and children in the throng, who cheered quite as lustily as the men. Mr. Bryan did not speak to exceed five min utes at' either Springfield or Aurora, but at Monett he left the car and addressed the crowd from the elevated porch of &' near-by hotel, He said: s ."The Republicans are boasting that we' have reached a point where wa, can loan money to people In other countries. Money sent abroad for Investment must be serit for one of two reasons either because the man who sends the money -over there thinks more of the people over there than he does of the people here, or because he can Invest it to better advantage in a European country than he can in' this country." Mr. Bryan was also greeted' by good crowds at Pierce City and Sarcoxie, and- he spoke briefly at each place. At Carthage he was met by a large 'crowd, and was lntioduced as the next Presi dent of the United States, Af'Joplln a large assembly stood and listened i to the' candidate for 15 minutes, notwithstand ing a heavy rain. The audience was com posed largely of miners, and they insisted' upon shaking hands with Mr. Bryant Brief speeches were also made atWebb" City and Oronoco. At all nbints Mri Bryan discussed the trusts, imperialism'' and militarism. At Galena. ... GALENA, Kan., Sept. 17. (Mr. Bryan addressed a large crowd here, speaking from an elaborate and beautifully decor-r rated stand, erected at the intersection of two streets. The crowd extended well' up and down each street, and not, only filled the adjoining yards, but covered many of the housetops. Numerous small boys found perches lrf the adjoining, trees and front windows were at a premium. Among those present upon the platform, was ex-Governor Crawford, formerly a Republican. Mr. Bryan made a general review of the present issues. He took up the Philippine question at the outset, de claring In this connection that Democrats are quoting the Declaration of Independ ence more in this campaign, than the Re publicans are. "They are getting Into, the habit of speaking of it as a string oft glittering generalities," he said. ? He repeated his former declaration that the common soldier suffers greater hard ships than the officers, and made an ap peal for tho soldier vote. "I believe," he said, "that the Democratic party can be trusted to do justice to the soldiers nd their dependents, and I am satisfied, jf rora all that I have heard, 'that if I am elected I shall be able to find a Commissioner of j Pensions who will be as satisfactory as the present." "I noticed this morning, as we came from the depot to the hotel, that" there I was a company of old soldiers acting as an escort. I felt honored that veterans of the Civil War should take upon'Hn'emi selves the labor of furnishing this escort; but, my friends, if a Republican telW'you I that there is any inconsistency in sucn action on the part of tho soldiers, Fwant you to-be prepared to meet the criticism. Why should not a soldier .support the Democratic ticket? The question's at is sue in this campaign concern the very foundation principles of this Government: If the soldier was willing .to fight four years to apply the Declaration of Inde pendence to. a black man, why should he not bo willing to vote -once to apply,the Declaration of. Independence to a 'brown man? -. . , . "I believe the .,, soldiers' Interests are safer In the hands of. people who believe in a small standing Army and a citizen soldiery than, they would be in tho hands of those who believe in a large standing Army. If you have a Jarge .standing Army, to run your expenses up, to "3.0O, 000,000 a,;year and Increase the expense of the War Department for the Army, you will ,flnd that great corporations .prefer -tOj reduce tho appropriations for pensions rather than the 'appropriations for the standing Army. Nations that have large armies are the least liberal with their pen sions, and tho nation which relies most upon its citizen soldiery Is the nation that Is the most liberal in providing .for Its' soldiers whenever'they suffer in the army. t It must dojt, for if -the. nation must call, at any ,tlme upon the citizens to volunteer, the Government must be Just as generous in Its treatment of that volunteer and his dependents. So, I repeat that' the soldier need- not fear Injustice at ,tho hands of the Democratic party, and if the soldier believes with us on the questions now be fore the. country. I believe" that" he can safely giye hia. support 'to the Democratic ': ucKet. . A "Why .should a soldier take the side of the Republican party on any of he ques tions' now before the country? The soldier is a citizen, and as a citizen he is' Inter-, ested in every question that, concerns his Nation's welfare. t Tho soldier and' his children and his children's children must share in this Nation's future, whether for weal, or woe, and I am going to assume that every soldier In this "audience wquld look at thesev, questions from the stand point of the citizen. If I can convince him that on this great question ,'the, Demo pratlc party 'is rlglit and the Republican party 'wrong, I shall expect the" support of that.soldler, and I am not afraia of, his being kept away by any fear of the party's treatment of the ' soldier.' ' Mr. Bryan made his familiar argument agalhsf trusts and expansion. ' In clds.ng he asserted 'that all Vars of conquest were the result of covetousness, and he warned the country of the fate of Nahab when he coveted Naboth's vineyard. It was, ho said,- blasphemy to say" that God, the same yesterday, today and forever, should pro tect us in our 'effort to tax the Filipinos without giving them representation, when we had depended upon that same divine assistance when we made war upon Eng land) for denying us representation while inslstnfg upon. taxing us." BANNA WOKE THEM UP. His Talk to Business Men of Chicagro. CHICAGO, Sept. 17. Senator Hanna entertained 25 leading business men of Chicago at lunoheon at the Union League Club, today, after which ho made a short speech. ,The drift of the Senator's talk was that the business men of tho coun-. try are as much interested in this elec tion as they were in 1S96, and that they should take an active part In it, as they did four yjtars ago. He cautioned them that the only danger to Republican suc cess was overconfldenco and apathy on the part of the men who are not accus tomed to take an active part In politics, and warned his hearers that Bryan was as much a free-silver man now as he was four years ago. Mr. Hanna's appeal was ' that his auditors wake up and go to .work. - , When the Senator finished there was a general interchange of ideas of the guests present as to the work which ought to bo done, In talking of -the purpose of the gathering, Senator Hanna afterward said: "I "wanted to wake them up, and I guess I did before I got through." - J.

Then, as now, there were people 'who distrusted the genius of this Nation,; but the feel ing was so strong that it forced the hands of onr own. statesmen, and it compelled the great Napoleon to sell to us, under the name of Louisiana, all the country from the mouth of the Mississippi to tho mouth of the Columbia. We could not stand Btlll, because the genius of our people would not permit it. We began to stretch wostward into the Pacific. The first island -to come into the Nation was the Island of ' Hawaii. We started to take Hawaii, and then in-came a Demo cratic Administration. (A voice: "And thoy raised h 1, too.") "I wish, gentlemen, to Indorse without reservation that terse and' graphic de scription of what occurred. Among' tho ' places where they misconducted them selves 'was Hawaii. Now, they gave it up to us, and in the time of President Cleveland they haule'd down the flag, that being done under the guidance of Mr. Blount, and that being the paramount Issue at that time".' That was 'the word used ".in connection with Mr. Blount'. - 'TSTow th'ey say 'the 'paramount Issue is again the'haullng'downr'df the flag' in the Philippines. Now, let nie call your' at-1 tenuon to just one 'tning: 11 -a procession was nbving'Up- this street; and moving that way, the head would 'be -over about the corner there, and the tall -would be down' about the Yellowstone bank. Now, 'as it moves along, after a while the tall will get' to the' corner. It 'won't catch up with' the head, but it will get where the head has been.- At thl3 time the tail of the Democratic 'party has got up to Hawaii, the place -where we at the head stood 8 or 10 years ago. You may recol lect-how, six or seven years-ago, it was one of the chief notes sounded by the Democratic statesmen, "who are always sounding notes of alarm, and who were greatly concerned 'over the fact that If Hawaii were admitted, and it became a part of our country, that we would es tablish an oligarchy, and that we would have inaugurated a colonial system, which would be contrary to our traditions and to our Constitution. They said It would be the beginning of imperialism and the ruin of our. institutions. "Tho Democracy always has to have some hero or some heroine outside of the country. At that time it was the Kanaka Queen. I am a little shaky about her name, it was something like Queen Lllluo kalani. At present they have dropped Queen Lilluokalanl,. and taken up Aguln aldo. Now, I am speaking perfectly; so berly and seriously. Eight years ago they refused to take Hawaii. They wished to givo it back to the Kanaka Queen. If we had put her back again upon the throne we could not have kept her there", except by an armed force. "So it Is with the Philippines now. If we turn those islands over to the dif ferent tribes, who will flght for the mas tery .among themselves, if we do what Mr. Bryan proposes to do, give them Into the hands of a syndicate of Chinese half-breeds,-with Aguinaldo at their head to work their wicked will upon the weak in habitants of tho Islands, wo wouhavo such anarchy and confusion that It would Inevitably happen that soma stronger power "would step in to do tho work that we would have shown ourselves too weak and too unworthy to perform. We, the men of tMs Republic, and you, the men of the mighty West, the jnen who have con? quered thfa continent, would have avowed yourselves In the face of the world as un able to do the work of a great. Nation in the face of the nations of the earth. "You, men of this Nation, who fought In the Civil War, remember that when this Union had but a quarter of the popula tion that it now has, It put 1,000,000 men into the field and then our opponents called out that we were Inaugurating and estab lishing a military power. Thoy had not then Invented the word 'imperialism.' You remember how - they prophesied that Jf Lincoln had his way he would establish an, empire. Now they are just beginning .to find out that Lincoln was a great and a good man. As I said a while ago, the, tall of the procession, Is coming up. They have now come to realize that the people, whose political heir and assign Mr. Bryan Is, were right. Mr. Bryan does not quote the words of the Democrats- of 1860, 1864 and 1868. He quotes the words of Mr. Lin coln and if he lives, as I hope he may, for I wish. him. well In private life, if he lives 35 years more, he will quote with equal , admiration the words of President McKinley. The Democrats have moved up by degrees. . They realize . that Mr. Lincoln was right; that the men who wore the blue wore right and they realize now that we were right, about Hawaii, after Hawaii has. come in. No despotism has followed. You could not even know that it was in if you did not think of it. "Ten yearsi hence they will realize that when our sons and, brothers-of your Mon tana regiment and the other regiments from the Dakotas and from Minnesota and from Oregon, Washington,. California, Utah, .Idaho and Colorado went over to the Philippines, and some, of them lost their lives, that their success -imposed upon us a solemn duty. We owe a duty to ourselves and. we owe a duty to the people of "those Islands. You member what happened in China this Summer. They had a. Boxer outbreak there. Now the Boxers are simply the analogues of Aguinaldo and his followers. They repre sent the same. antNf oreign uprising- -r "Now,, gentlemen.shall we abandon the Philippines? Wo cannqt help ,dolng our share of the work. We stand, at the . threshold of a centurythat Is to.declde the fate of the na.tions of the earth. This century our people will decide once for all the position we are to take through out the ages. Woe'be to us if, at the very outset we cringe and shrink gack fright ened at the task before us." Talk at Columbus. At Columbus a short stop-was - made and a brief-speech was delivered from the rear platform car by Governor Roosevelt--He-Bald in parti- r - "When Dewey sailed into Manila Bay and destroyed the Spanish fleet, who cared whether he carne from Vermont. or any other state? When Hobson ,face"d al most certain death in Santiago Bay,, who cared that he came frdm Alabama? 'Who cares if Funston "comes from 'Kansas or Hale from ..Colorado? The .only point is that they have apted Uko Americans, that is all. You have sent your" sons and "brothers "out to the( Philippines "an'd' there they fought; 'there' they reflected honor upon you and upon every American worthy of tho name" of American. All of us take pride 'in the deeds of valor donp bx.an'Sj.AJl of., us woujd hang.,our heads- If America went back from 'the stand she hag taken. You are the men Who have conquered the West Many of you here must have seen this country be fore there was a house here and when the Indian and the 'buffalo were sharing it. That was not so long ago. I, myself, have seen this country In those days. The law of expansion is tho law of our National life. Tho ''reason we stand toda as a great Nation Is because' we have dared to do a 'great Nation's work. Through out the Nineteenth century and since the great battles of the Civil War, growth has been the policy of the United States. As we have struggled on We have expanded 1 .west of tho Alloghenles .and .west .of the Mississippi and across the great plains'" that He east of us now. "Having gono that far we will not go back now." ' At Livingston, Governor Roosevelt was escorted to a stand near the station, from which he spoke briefly. He stated that at the last station he had been handed a communication, unsigned, by some one who was -golng'to "support the ticket but who thought the Governor's speeches laid too much stress upon the retention-of tho Philippines. He said In part: "I feel that tho issue of the Philippines is of so much importance that I do not appeal to ypu wjth a purpose of making votes at all. I wish to put tho lsauo be fore you. in such a. plain light that if . you have the welfare of the Nation at heart" you cannot help voting right. That Is all I am trying to do. I am not trying to make votes. I am trying to show what it is we believe, so .that the bulk of the American people will go with us. It is" perfectly true that Congress has got ul timately to decide the fate of the Islands and their present status, Congress had already decided. The treaty by which we acquired the Philippines was in part rati fied through tho efforts of Mr. Bryan and I should give all possible credit for his action If it had not been for the fact that ho Is trying now to" undo what hb then did and put us in a position both! riaicuious ana contemptible. We Cannot Contract. "The Philippine Islands belong to ns by treaty and purchase,. Just exactly as the territory of which Montana was a part was procured by treaty and purchase from France in 1803. At that time a Senator of the United States declaimed against paying. $15,000,000 for all the territory from the Gulf of Mexico to Puget Sound on the groupd that It wa3 an exceedingly poor bargain."' We are now in the Philippines.' It is not a question of expansion, It Is a question of whether we are going to' con tract We have already expanded. "We are there. If there Is any way by which we could Insure militarism In the Islands, it would be by attempting to hold a part of the-Islands and to have a hostile fron tier between us and the rest of the. Islands.-. We' haveover .there now certain Commissioners, Jieaded .by fudga, Taftvf vni.11 iua ssociatestDoin .KcpuDiicans ana Democrats, whoar'e"tfiere for the especial purposeof seeing how much.self-grp'yern-. mentand wha kind of government, It fs .possible to de those Islands. We will doubtless follow substantially the recom mendations of those men. To' leave the Islands noyv would be 'doing Injustice to ourselves'and even greater injustice'to the people "of the, Islands. "Our opponents talk of liberty. Aye, liberty shall come to tho Islands and It shall come under the American flag. To turn the Islands loose now would merely mean -to turn them loose to butchery hy one tribe at the expense of another. Ag uinaldo and his associates are simply a syndicate of Chinese half-breeds, very cor rupt and cruel. What Is- perfectly evident is that our duty now is to stay there and to bring that peace and liberty tthat al ways come under our Government and not the liberty of cutting throats and committing arson and plunder; not the lib erty to pull down the American flag. We don't give that kind of liberty. We have got our Commission over there to find the kind of government which will best serve the Interests of the Islands and to also servo the Interests of the American people. The exact steps that will have to be taken no man can foretell. What wa Insist on Is that such steps shall be taken as to secure both ends both in giving good government to the Islanders them selves and to the end of upholding tho honor of tho American flag." During the day short stops wero made at Bozeman, Manhattan, Logan and Wins ton, at most of which five-minute talks were made by Governor Roosevelt or some of the party.

It Is therefore impossible to cure It by local applications.

It is radically and permanently cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla which removes the cause, cleanses the blood of scrofulous and all other Impurities and gives vigor and tone to the whole system.
