W. Jermane. Washington, March 29.A good deal of the talk that has been heard of late about the fiendishness of American sol diers in the battle of Mount Dajo is undoubtedly due to the fact that Gen eral Leonard Wood 4s in charge of the troops in the Philippines. The name of that officer, for some occult reason, ex ercises a strange influence on certain people and newspapers, who seem will ing to go out of their way to accept and advance any sort of charge against him. It will be remembered that when he was in command of the American troops in Cuba he was aecused of se rious misdemeanorsof being jealous of his* superiors, of claiming credit for acts not his own, and of accepting pres ents from those with whom he had of ficial relations. His eneriiies at that time were very aggressive, but in the end they failed to make their charges stick. The confidence of the'president and of the country was unshaken, and in due. time Wood was' promoted and sent to the Philippines. Jealousy Caused Criticism. :The favorite charge against General Woodand it has had its birth in the ranks of jealous officers, over whom he has climbed to a lieutenant general shipis that he is not a soldier at all, but only a "pill doctor." His prefer ment, it is alleged, has come about, en tirelv because of the gross and unfair favoritism of President Koosevelt. It is quite the thing in certain quarters to refer to Wood as "Dr." Wood, and to follow with the suggestion that he is more at home with the pillbox and lan cet than in a general's uniform. Ob viously, this being the case, as the pres ent discussion progressed much was heard to the effect that it was a surgeon and not a soldier who ordered heroic treatment for the Moros and decided that extermination was the proper rem edy. But the campaign of abuse against Wood will fail, just as it has failed heretofore. It must run its course, however, and the country will have to try to be patient under it. \A\ deal. Kuu is being heard to the ef- a that they devot ed the ir lives ami tho se of their "wives and children "to the de fense of their homes and their free dom. The public should be careful not to be misled by such statements. This particular band of Moros was made up of desperate outlaws and fugitives from justice, men and women entirely without the pale of the law, who for years had been terrorizing the com munity which they infested. All efforts for their subjugation by peaceful meth ods had failed. The conflict between them and the American troops was nec essary in the interest of the peace and quiet and the security of the law-abid ing natives and of the integrity of American authority. Moros Like Jesse James Gang. .It, would be just as truthful to say that the members of the Jesse James gang "preferred death to conquest," and that they devoted their lives and the .'lives of thei7r children "to the defense1 owives theiranhomes arid their freedom." Or it would be just as truthful to make similar assertions I regarding the Molly Maguires. who once infested Pennsylvania. These Moros were professional marauders, knowing no was laid waste and thousands of inno cent natives terrorized. Obviouslv, it, was not_a pleasant task to deal with them. Neither -was it pleasant to con duct campaigns against the redskins of the Bad Lands and the Lava Beds. But it was a necessary work. President Eoosevelt has been advised of the facts, and the country may take it for granted that his cablegrams of congratulations were not written and sent until he had satisfied himself that the Dajo incident was a necessary part of the government's work for the Fili pinos. BIG THREE PROXIES ARE MADE USELESS CURRY HAS HARD TASK IN SAMAR Pulijanes Number 2,500 and Are Mountain Outlaws, Tho Wot a Separate Itace. Washington, March 2 9 Tho the Philippine census fails to disclose the number of "Pulijanes''-on the island of Samar who are now being pursued by the constabulary under the lead of Governor Curry in retaliation for the attack upon his party recently it is estimated by officers in the war depart ment who nave been stationed on the island that there are not to exceed 2,500 of these people in the mountain fastnesses. They are aot, as commonly supposed, a race of themselves but as explained by one of these army officers, the Pulijanes are really only Visayans who have gone wrongi They are peoplo who wore once under the Spanish re ligious influence, but have retrograded into a state of barbarism have taken to the mountains and .live in large part by preying upon the toilers in the agri cultural sections. Thus they are, like the ladrones in Luzon, and the brigand Moros. The Spanish government records mention them as "Tulisanes," which is said to be the vocal equivalent of the native word Pulijanes,'' while the church denominates them "remon- tados,'' which means a people tliat have once practiced Christianity and lived by honest labor, but have "backslid." In the opinion of army officers here, it will be no easy task for Governor Curry to subdue these "Pulijanes," be cause they are like the American In dians in the Bad Lands and are very much assisted by their women, who travel back and forth into the towns, bringing out supplies of rice and other necessities despite the watchfulness of the American troops and native guards. MIDDY MERIWETHER IS TO QUIT ANNAPOLIS Washington, March 29.Secretary Bonaparte has decided to accept the resignation of Midshipman Minor Mer iwether from th naval academy. wills sentencee .o one year's confinee instruct the superintendent to dis- th mis feet that thc Moros died because they ment to the academy grounds against ''preferred death to conquest," and I Meriwether because ot e- th deat of Midshipman Branch as the result of a fight with Meriwether. This action was taken on the recom mendations of Admiral Sands, superin tendent of the naval academy, and Ad miral Converse, chief of. the bureau of navigation. They were informed that Meriwether probably would not pass in his studies, and advised the secre tary to accept the resignation. The report of physicians did not show suffi cient physical disability to justify ac ceptance on that score.'-- It is known that life at the academy has become unbearable to Meriwether, and his poor record in his studies is said to be a desire on his part.to leave Annapolis.

The two large companies most directly affected by the bill are the Mutual Life and the'Newi York Life. The bill as originally framed fixed! the date for the solicitation of proxies as July 1, but when the Armstrong com mittee was informed that the mutual Companies were engaged in collecting proxies thru.their agency organizations with a view of perpetuating the tenure of the present directors and trustees, it changed the date in order to give the' policyholders an opportunity, to organ ize for the acquirement of proxies and securing the election of such directors and trustees as they may favor.
