Rev. HcCauley Has Just Returned from Trip
to the Group Autonomy Under
American Protectorate.
Now York, Jan. 17. A dispatch
to tho Herald from HonekoDg
sttya:
Eov. Olay MoCnuloy, professor
theology nt Tokio, who recently
arrived from tho Philippines, says
that as tho result of his study of
the situation nt Manila, ho thinks
tlioro are only thrco ways for tho
United States to solve tho Philip
pine problem.
Tho first is annexation by forco
or purchnso. To ubo forco means
the mo3tdimtrous foroirjjn war in
Amnrictn history, onUiling great
loss oE mo aud expenditure of
rnonoy. Moreover, it would bo a
violation of national honor.
Pimibneo means tbo recognition
nf tho insurgents as allies of the
United States during tho war;
rewarding tho Filipino loaders
with officers' salaries; employment
of tho insurgents in military and
civil offices nnd also giving them
back pay as allioe for somo
months. Such n purohneo would
secure a compromising gain ot
doubtful teuuio. The AtnciicuuB
iu Mnnila are generally opposed
to aunoxation in nny form.
Tim second solution is a com
plete transfer of sovereignty from
Spain to a Filipinos republic nnd
the retoution by tho United Stntos
for hor own uoo of Manila buy
nnd port just as Uonckong is kept
by Uront JJritain. JLliis solution
means the exposuroof tho defense'
less Philippines to the creed of
the powers, with a consequent
noute crisis in Europo over far
EiBlom questions. This wny is
neither liouoralile or wise.
Tho third possible solution is
autonomy undr an American
protectorate. This menus nn in
dependent Filipino republic con
trolling tun ndministrntion of in
ternal affairs, tho United States
tnkinu charge of tho Supremo ju
diciary and foroign relations, such
us tho power ot making war or
treaties whilo having control of
tbo customs.
Thia solution, Mr. McCauloy
thinks, might bring about n tute
lage which would result in tho fu
ture absolute indepoudouCH of the
island or voluntary annexation to
tue United tnt"B.
Tho third wny only, ho says,
menus pence and prosperity both
to tho United StnteB aud tho Phi
lippines. In nny cnBe, immediate
action is impnrntive.
A leading meiu or of the Fili
pino directornto ' Hongkong d
clard readily nud ouiphntiunlly
that tho Filipinos would refuse
Hhsolutoly to linnet ovor the eus
toms. Tlioro would bo no object
tion to paying the cost nf riinin
tainiug a nnvnl equadron in the
Philippine waters, in th- same
wny as tho British ColxmeM con
tinuos toward tho imperial de
fense.

Tbistle Club Celebrates Anniversary of
His Birth.
Happy Speeches by Members and Others An
ecdotes and Songs Given Recitaton of
Tom O'Sbanter by J. H. HcGowan.
Yesterday was tho anniversary
of the birth of tho famous and
much beloved Scottish bard,
Itobert Burns, who, through his
pooniB nnd songs hns spoken not
ouly to the Scottish people but to
tho people of ovory civilized
nation. As in years previous, tho
Scottish Thistle Olub celebrated
the event in a banquet nt tho
rlingtnn hotel whore, nt about
8:30 o'clock, sixty or moro Scots
and their friends, gathored about
the feetivo board in the largo din
ing room.
Tho table was well sot and
decorations in red carnations were
iifK'il, while from the chnndeliors
hung sprayB of the "hunpaln"
vine with its orange colored
llowers. Over the main ou
trnnoo whs a picture, iu colors,
of Bobcrt Burns, surround
ed by Scottish shnwlB in
groen, black nnd red. Beneath
wore the Euglish and Amoriunu
tines. Opposite over the back
entrance were Euglish nnd Hn
wniian firfea, while ou tue Wai
kiki wall was n picturo of Queon
Victoria, in colors, Burrounded by
nn Euclisb finer. In tbo parlor
wns n piauo tlmt wns rolled close
to tuo dining room for the nc
companists- nnd singers.
Seated at tho head of tho com
bined tables wns Chief Dnll of tho
Thistle Club. To his right wore
H. II. M's Commissioner Kotiuy
nnd Bobert Cation, while to his
loft were Col. Why to, Dr. A. Sin
clair, nnd further down the left,
Uov. Alex. Mnckiiitosh, W. E.
Fislior aud J. U. McQowau of
Ohio.
Oliior Dull aroso and, in a fow
word", opeued tho bauquot. For
n half hour or so tho guests
partook of the good things
provided by Mr. nnd Mrs.
Krouso. Then catno a sharp rnp
and Chief Dull arose. In n fe.w
well ohosou words ho spoko of the
revered poet Burns nnd referred
to tho celebration by tho Scots nil
nil ovor tho world of tho anniver
sary of tho birth of the author of
Tom O'Shnnter.
Bobort Cutton in his eulogy of
"Robbie" Burns, mentioned vn
rious of his poonis aud their suit
ability to the various feolingp with
which man is beset at different
times. In lovo or in auger, in
happiness or iu sorrow, iu fun or
in earnest, Burns alwayB has a
rendy line that meets the feolinga.
Mr. Cation illustrated by quota
tions from somo of Bruns' poems.
Special Agent H. ' M. Sownll
wan to havo responded to the toast
"Tho President of the United
States" but was unavoidably do
tain ed. Col. Whyto of Seattle whs
invited to respond nnd in well
chosen words, gavo ono of I ho best
ppcouhes nf tho evening. Hn told
of his vinit to tho home of Burns
in Scotland nnd of the feelings he
experienced ns hn passed along
from ono placo of historic interest
to tho other. Ho had boon born
in Scotland.
British Commission Kenny ros
ponded to tho toast "Tho Queen"
in vory hnppy terms, bringing
forth rouuds of applause. He
playfully traced tho Queon's nnces
try buck to Scotland nud brought
in tbo Emperor of Gormnuy
as being pnrtly Scotch, although,
perhaps, it wns not by virtue of
hiB Seotoh blood that W ruled
over Gormnuy. Then Mr. Kehnv
took up President MoKiuley,show-
iug tunt lie tmel scotch blood in
nun although there woro vory
broad suspicious that he also had
Irish blood in him. Mr. Kouny
was about to refer to tho Czar of
Coiitlnuud on Pace 4.

Ho called at tho Executive build

"The siluation is that nn Amor-

that is unless tho United States
Govornmout is willing to liberally
nsist and back up American en
terprise.
"luougu 1 baliovo a cable will
be Obtablishcd, ns it is a military
neoessity that the United States
Government should have cable
independent of Europe aud China
and tho foroign companies."
Mr. Scrymser was nelcd if the
Japanoso Government had given
him nuy onoouragomunt. Ho
answered:
"Yes, they have, but they will
do uothinc unless the United
States' assist it. You may
say that n cablu of ten thousand
milos involves nn expenditure, of
teu million dollars. That would
be absolutely impracticable. It
would bo Huro to broak down.
I'heroforo tho distance iu

which would cost $2i.l,Oi)O,00O, nnd
as a cablo is supposed to last twen

as a ronownl fund,otherwiHH nt the

have to issuo now capital.
" Had the exclusive right grant
ed by Hawaii been sustained by
tho Uuited States Government, it
could havo boon uied to obtain
reasonable terms with compv ies
holding the monopoly as before
Btated.
