The Squadron left Hong Kong on the morn ing of tbe 25tb, and Mirs bay on the 27th.

Whatever the future of ilia Philippines may tie, ttiera is no couraj opou ij ua now except the ros:cutiou of tbe war until the insurgents are reduced to tub mission. The com mission is of the opinion that there has been no time since ths detraction of tl.e Spanish fquadron by Admiral Dwey when it was possible to withdraw oar foics from the islands, either with honor to oureelves or with safety to tin inhabitant. nrOT?TiTtrn n . . . raraiUKAx, UKUUUW, MUW DAY, NOVEMBER 6.1899. 1 ' Thanksgiving Proclamation. NO. 88. HISTOBY Or TUB IbL&NDS. Turning to the history of the ielands, tbe commission attaches little import ance to the divers rebellions wbich bad preceded that of 1S96. As to the move ment, it declares it was ia ao sense an attempt lo win independence, but solely to obtain relief from intolerable abuses. To sustain this statement tire commission quotes from an insurgent proclamation showing that what was demanded was the expulsion of the iriars and the resti tution to tbe people of their lands, with a division of tbe Episcopal fees between Spanish and native priests. It was also demanded that tbe Filipinos have par liamentary representation, freedom of the press, religions toleration, economic autonomy uJ laws similar to those of Spain. The abolition of the power of banishment was demanded, with a legal -quality forall perayna in law and equal ity in pay between Spanieb and native civil servants. The commission declares that these de mands had good ground ; tbat oa paper tbe Spanish system cf government was tolerable, bat in practice every Spanish governor did what be saw fit, and the evil deeds of men" in tbe government were hidden from Spain by strict press censorship. Allusion is made to tbe powerful Katipnnan rocieiy, patterned on tbe Masonic order, and mainly made op of Tagalr, ai a powerfnl revolutionary lores. Tbe war began in lS'Jo was terminated by tbe treaty of Biac-Na-Bate. Tbe Fil ipinos were Dimerous, but possessed on ly shoot 800 small arms. The Spanish felt tbat it woold require 100,000 men to captors their stronghold, aod concluded to resort to lbs ose of money. Certain concessions were also decided npon, in cluding representation of the Filipinos in j ths cortes, tbe deportation of the friars, j wricb ws. ths principal question ; ths grant ee rigLt of association and of s (res .press. Governor-General Rivera was willing to pay 12,000,000 Mexican money when Aguinaldo and bis cabinet and leading officers arrived in Hong Kong. It appears, however, tbat Pa terno only offered the latter $100,000, $200,000 to be paid when Aguinaldo ar rived at Hong Kong, and the balance when' tbe Filipinos ' had delivered op their arms. ' Tbe arrangement was not acceptable to tbe people. The promises were never carried out. Spanish abuses began airesb, in Manila atone more tban 200 men being executed. Hence sporadic revelations occurred, though they pos sesesd nothing like tbe strength of tbe original movement. Tbe insurgents lacked arms, ammunition and leaders. The treaty bad ended the war, which, with the exception of an unimportant outbreak in Cebu, had been con fined1 to Lnon, Spain's sovereignty iu tbe islands never having been questioned and tbe thought of independence never having been entertained.

The comaiihsion's report then rapiJly ssetches events now hetoiical. It tells in substance how the Filipinos attacked the Spanisb, aud bow General Aodercon arrived, and Aguinaldo, at his request, removed from Cavite t- Bacoor. Ssys tb cjmmissijn : "Now for the firs: time rosa the idea of national independence. Aguinaldo iliued a proclatnation, in which he took tbe responsibility of pro-niaicg it to iis people on behalf of the American gov ernment, although he admitted freely in private conversation with members of bis cabinet that neither Admiral Dewey nor any other American bad made him any each promise." Tbe report states that Aguinaldo wished ti attack the Americans when they landed at Paranque, but was de terred by lack of arms and ammunition. From tbat point on there was s growing friction oetween the Filipinos and the American troops. "There were no conferences," says tbe report, "between Ibe officers of the Fili pinos and our officers, wita a view to op eratiog against tbe Spaniards, nor was there co-operation of any kinJ. Tnete never were any preconcerted op erations or any combined movement by the United States and Filipinos againet me Spaniards, inference is made to Aguinaldo' a demand tint ha be allowed lo loot Manila and take the arms of tbe Spanisb. The latter demand is said to confirm the statement that he intended to get possession of the arms to attack the Americans. Farther evidence of th hostile inten tions of the Filipiuoj was found in the organization of the Topular Club,' which later on furniehed a local militia toatta:kthe Americans. The decree of the Filipino congress are also cited, as well as the making of bjlas (knives) in every shop in Manila. It is shown that a considerable ele ment in the Filipino congress w ished to adaress to President McKinlev a riiwt not to abandon the Philippines (at this stage the Paris conference was discussing the future of the Philippines). The president wis also to be asked his deire as to the form of government be wished to establteb. But all this time Atuinal.lo was preparing for war. and d.!vin.,! tbese message, aud it was understood tbe attack would come wuea She first act by the American forces would afford a pretext." A brief chapter telle of tbe lack ol suc cess attending the effort made at this time by General Merrill, through a com mission, to arrive at a mutual under lies dropped out of the ineurrectiou "As soon as the Tagal inbiirrecliuu ia suppressed." said President Scburman tonight, "the Uuited Siates should im- mediately ts'.ab'.ith a government to be I administered at first under the direction of the war department, but, by toccees ive etagcj, to finally be placed in the bands of the Filipinos under American sovereignty.

At Tenueesa gulch, SUrveout and other points about the hed of Cow creek, old ditches are being deepened, flumea renewed and heidgates strengthened for the purpose of taking advantage of all the rain that falls. The same activity prevails at the Victor, Crackerjick and Kan placer mines, on the lower creek. He looks for unusual activity in Donglus county placer mines during the ensuing winter and spring. Judge Kiddle has a contract to furniiih 10.003 cords of wood to tbe Southern Pacific railroad to be delivered at Kiddle station, lie has a flume miles loug whii-h carries the wood from near whore it is cut, and to?ses it nboard the cars.

Ho lno lots of woik for wood cutters, an tho company ueea a j;reit deal on its locomotives and at its various stations in Southern Ore gon and Nortberu California. Indications for renewal of operations at the nickel mines, near Kiddle?, l.n thinks, are good, as several hundred tons of the ore are now being prepared for shipment to Chicago as a test of its Value.
