Claim Water Cure I Not Dan gerous anil KimI .1 list i lies Means. MANILA. Monday, members of the court tried Major Edwin F. Fifth Infantry, who June 9. The martial which Glenn, of the was charged wifh- administering the water cure to Filipinos, have returned to Manila. The court -held Its session at rat bo long. Island of Samar. The Glenn court- martial refused to admit evi dence from places outside of the iPhf.lpplrte (Islands, which wafc brought forward to show that prac tices similar to the water cure had been conducted by the police of New York City in 18S4. when Brigadier General Grant was one of the police i commissioners. General Grant was president of the Glenn court- martial. Major Glenn, Surgeons Jones, Rhodes and Real, and Lieutenant Connor testified that they had taken the wa ter cure, that It was not dangerous, but that It produced a fear of death by strangulation in the man to wtaom it was administered. Major Charles J. Crane of the Adjutant-General's de partment testified that in his opinion Major's Glenn's work in the inland of Panay had done more than that of any other one man with the excep tion of the efforts of General R. P. Hughes to bring about the successful pacification of the island. Major Crane said he regarded t impossible to obtain information from the na tives without coercion and that he re garded Major Glenn's work adlgbar a as the opening wedge which led to the pacification of ithe first large Ter ritory of the Philippine archipelago. Col. Nicholas - Roces of the native constabulary testified that he gave several of his men ten days furlough on account of rhe fact thait they w-re suffering from dengue fever: that these men. were caught by American soldiers, who gave them the cure and that the men returned in 'bree days time fully recovered from the effects of the fever. Col. Roces said these men now thought the water cure was a good remedy for the fever. At the trial by court-martial of First Lieutenant Julian E. Gaujot of the Tenth Cavalry, who was tried on charges similar to those preferred agaflnst Major Cilerm, the lieuten ant admitted all the charges and said he considered the results obtains am ply justified the methods employed. Lieut. Norman E. 'ook, of the Phil ippine scouts, who was tried by court martial for manslaughter on the charge of having ordered the execu tion of three natives, denied that he had given orders to this effect and declared that the men in ouestiun soap brings health and the color of health to many a sallow skin: .ir a due to a combination of un favorable circumstances they were hardly able to dvMe.

The repairs to the United States ar my transport Sumner and the former hospital ship Relief, the latter having been used by General Chaffee for the transport of the troops through the archipelago, have been completed at Shanghai, where these vessels have neen for the past three months. They will now be sent heme to he sold and it is believed that one of them will go to New York. The ports of the Island of Leyte have been closed since the first of June. The native constabulary of the ;?!and will t conduct an aggressive campaign aginst the bandits there but have refused the assistance of the 1'nited States troops in this work. Xrajor Henry T. Allen, chief of the na tive canstabulary. will probably per sonally take command of his forces in Leyte. Insurgent flags are now de fiantly flying in many places on the island. LKTTRR FROM ROOSEVELT.

St. John, secretary of the American Unitarian Association. In answer to the secretary's letter trans mitting ro the president the resolu tions adopted at the annual meeting of the American Unitarian AssoeUv tion concerning the situation In the Philippines. The president's letter is as follows: " My Dir Sir: I beg to thank you for your very Kind letter of the 31st ultimo, enclosing the memorial of the American Unitarian Association pass ed at their annual meeting May 22, 19f2. 1 am nappy to oe aDie to say that the bill which has Just passed j the senate will, if enacted into law, enable us to proceed even more nip- idly and efficiently than hitherto along the lines of securing peace, prosper ity and personal liberty to the Inhab itants of the Philippine islands. There Is now almost no ' policy of co ercion ' in the islands, because the In surrection has been so entirely over come that save In a few places peace, and with peace the policy of concilia tion and good will obtain thriuh- out the Philippines. There has never been any coercion, save a .va? abso lutely Inevitable In putting a stop to an armed attack upon the sovereignty (f the United States, Which in Its last phases became mere brigandage. "With great regard, and assuring you of my hearty sympathy with the pun set forth in your letter and actuating the members of the Ameri can Unitarian Asswiatlon, as regards peace and justice in the Philippines, am. very' truly, yours, "THEODORE ROOSEVELT."
