Waxhington, June 34.—An impres­
sion ii getting abroad in the coun tn
that the people hare not received all
the facte regarding the situation in
the Philippines. It ie believed that
the censor ie scrutinizing piess die-
patches vety carefullly, and that ii
General Gtis has communicated the
exact conditions to the department hit
diepatches have not been giver, to the
public.
The reason for tide belief may be
seen in what the publio now knows,
that, although General Otis gave out
glowing pictures of success and the
earlv break-up of tire rebellion, the in­
surgents are really in a stronger posi­
tion than two months ago. It ie ptob-
able tiiat when the volunteers return
and are no longer subject to the orders
of officers superior to themselves soint
of the real facts connected with th:
Philippines will be brought out.
The political significance of Presi­
dent McKinley’s trip into Massachu­
setts at this time is said to be his de­
sire to overcome the opposition that
lias been developing to his policy in
the Philippines. Probably in no other
state or section is there as much real
opposition to the expansion idea as in
Massachusetts. It is expected that the
president’s visit will have the effect o!
making friends for the administration
and do good work towards breakin;
down the opposition to the retention
of the Philippines.
While tire president is away th<
press of the country is growing ver’

New Orleans, June 24.—Captain M.
P. Doulett, of the steamer Indepen-
ience, has brought to the city a piece
>f the wreck of the naptha launch Paul
lores, lost in the Gulf last January,
which throws still more mystery on
that disaster. The Paul Jones was
thought to have been destroyed by the
explosion of her naptha tank, which
would aocount for her complete de-
itruction and sudden loss of all on
board.
This is now shown to have been a
totally eironeons theory, for the naptha
tank was discovered by Captain Dou­
lett intact and uninjured and still
three-fourths full, at Grand Gazier
island, near Bieten island, where the
wreck was supposed to have occurred.
The tank was brought to the city.
Some 12 feet of the launch was still
adhering to it, and seemed to have been
cut off, indicating that the vessel was
run down in a collision. On the other
hand, the accident occurred where no
large vessels go, and a collision was
well-nigh impossible. The remainder
of the wreck will be brought to New
Orleans from Grand Gazier on the
next trip of the Independence.

New York, June 24. — It is said at

Fins. There were 90 on the New York

there were about as many on the Um­

will take out of the hands of the speak

power which they heretofore exer­

powerful in deciding what legislation
shall be considered and membership on
it will be more sought after than on

posed to make the speaker ineligible
to the committee and to Lave it of
sufficient size to include many of the
leaders o< the house.
The combination for the organization
of the house and the distribution of

selection of Henry A. Cusson, of Wis­
consin, for sergeant-at-arms. The offi­

of
New York, June 26.—A special to
the Herald from Washington Bays: A
new executive branch of the govern­
ment with tiie title, “Department of
Colonial Affairs and Foreign Com­
merce,” or something similar to it, is
deemed by the administration abso­
lutely necessary to meet new condition:
which confront the United States as a
result of the war with Spain.
The word “colonial” is repugnant
for political reasons to some of the
members of the cabinet, because it
smacks of imperialism, and it is prob­
able that some other title will be
adopted. The meaning, however, will
be the same. Preliminary to recom­
mendations to congress on this sub­
ject, data is now being compiled con­
cerning the control of the colonies by
foreign powers and the extension o!
our commerce into foreign fields, and
members of theca1 ¡net and subordinate
officials of the administiation are giv­
ing much thought and time to the de­
tails of the proposed new department.
American consuls on duty in the
colonies belonging to foreign powers,
especially those of Great Britain, ate
to be called upon for full reports upon
a list of questions now preparing for
submission to them. Robert P. Por­
ter, who is looked upon as the probable
head of the proposed cabinet office
when created, will he consulted in re­
gard to the plans for extending foreign
commerce, which is to become a feature
of the new department.

Rossland, B. C., June 26.—About
11 o’clock this morning a terrible ex­
plosion occurred in the War Eagle
mine, the scene of the fatality of a
month ago, ami in consequence, three
men are now lying dead at the morgue,
another 1 b probably fatally injured,
and a fifth is very seriously hurt.
Five men were working in the 625-
foot level with machine drills, when
one of the drills struck a "missed
hole,’’ where the shot had failed to go
off last night. A frightful explosion
occurred, and Charles Poet and Charles
Lee were instantly killed, while Mike
Griffin, a married man, died on the
way to the hospital. Men from all
parts of the mine rushed at once to the
help of their comrades, ami they were
carried out of the mine q.rickly. The
injured were removed to the hospital.
Dan Green is lying at the hospital
with but faint hopes for recovery.
Charles Couson has received severe in­
juries to his right arm, the flesh being
torn off, but the surgeons have hopes
of his recovery.
The mine is closed Ibis afternoon,
and will probably remain so until aftei
the funerals.

and China. This is said to be the
largest order ever placed with one firm
in the world and represents an outlay
of between $4,500,0J0 and $5,000,000.

tension is extreme. Business is at a
standstill and the general feeling if
that England must promptly bring
matteis to an issue. The league will
have no difficulty in preventing meet­
ings supporting Sir Alfied Milner’s at­
titude, the desire being to refrain from
embarrassing the imperial authorities.
The Orange government is urging the
Transvaal to mako further concessions.
Many people consider Milner’s fran­
chise proposals are useless without the
granting of 12 seats to the mining cen­
ters and the right to speak English in
the volksraad. Otherwise, it will be
impossible to select representative men.
Failing in these concessions, the Johan-

providing security and judicial and
educational reforms.”
