FOREST PMPROJECT PLAN INDORSED INDIRECTLY BY THE AMERICAN PUBLIC HEALTH ASSOCIATION TOPICS OF LIVE INTEREST Tuberculosis and a National Home (or Lepers Among; the Quest ion n Given Consideration by the Gath ering at Minneapolis — New Sec tion Authorized I nder a Tem porary Organisation. p LOBE'S MINNEAPOLIS OFFICE. O 20 WASHINGTON AY. SOUTH. Advertising— Subscriptions— Tel. 2700 j— 4. The question of forest reserves, from the standpoint of public health, the care and prevention of tuberculosis and the matter of a national home for lepers were among: the topics of general as well technical interest discussed yesterday at Minneapolis by the American Public Health association. At the morning: session the association, on recommendation of the executive com mittee, adopted a resolution favoring for est reserves. This was, as befitted the character of the organization, entirely on the grounds of the healthfulness of such parks, and the resolution carefully avoid ed the mention of specific projects. It v.as probably the idea that there were bo many questions involved that It would not be wise to indorse particularly the Minnesota park scheme. But the action was called out through the communica tion of Gen. Andrews on Fhe subject. The resolution as adopted was as follows: Resolved, That, as this association be lieves that the presence of forests is conducive to public health, Resolved. That this association rec ommends to all governments to set apart Buch portions of their forests as may be practicable for national parks. A resolution was also adopted author izing a committee with the duty of tak ing steps to secure advanced teaching end the giving of diplomas in hygiene and the recognition of such diplomas by the sanitary authorities. • Another resolution Intending to de nounce the use of preservaline and sim ilar harmful preserving chemicals was 60 worded that it was too sweeping in its character and was referred back for revision. One of the most Important propositions of the session was the recommendation— read for the committee by Prof. Robinson --that a section be organized, to be known as the "Bacteriological and Chemical Sec tion" of the association. This plan Is the outgrowth of the establishment this year of the laboratory committee, which met for the first time as a sub-body of the association Monday at the university. The plan will require an amendment to the constitution, which cannot be acted upon until next year, but it was decided to go on with an informal temporary or ganization of the new section pending for mal acMon next fall. The section will be regularly officered. It seems destined to take a prominent part In the development of bacteriological work. Papers on vaccination and (he discus sion which followed occupied most of the mqrning. The report of the treasurer, Dr. Henry D. Holton, of Brattleboro, Vt., was re ceived. It showed receipts of $3,310, and disbursements of $3,810. A balance of $1,223 at the beginning of the year made possible a balance on hand at the pres ent time of $723. The committee on resolutions on the death of President Rohe presented a res olution expressing the esteem and regret of the association, and it was adopted by a rising vote. A committee appointed to answer the question, "What Constitutes an Epidem ic?" reported through its chairman, Dr. U. O. B. Wlngate, of Milwaukee, secre tary' of the state board of health of Wis consin. Last on the morning list of subjects was the report of the committee on laborato ries, presented by the cfiaTrman, Dr. Wy att Johnston, bacteriologist of the pro vincial board of health at Montreal. The afternoon session was devoted in large measure to the subject of tuber culosis. "The Nature and Treatment of Tuberculosis." by Dr. Beard, of Minne apolis, opened the programme. This was followed by a report of the proceedings i f the international congress for the con- Bideration of the best methods of check- Ing or curing tuberculosis, held in Ber lin May 24 to 27, 1599, by Dr. E. A. de Bchweinitz, chief biochemlc division, bu reau of animal industry, "Washington, D. C. The report of the committee on a na tional leper home was presented by the chairman, Dr. H. M. Bracken, secretary of the state board of health, Minneapolis, Minn. "The Leper Home of Louisiana" was fliscußsed by Dr. C. P. Wilkinson, chief quarantine officer. New Orleans, La. Mrs. Ellen Richards, of the Massachu setts Institute of Technology, the only woman member of the Public Health as sociation, while prominent in that body has been seen and heard less than public Interest in her work demands. Some of the women of the city interested in her labors have requested her to speak at a public meeting before leaving the city. Bhe has consented and arrangements have been made to hold the meeting Saturday morning In the ordinary of the West hotel. Today will be the last day of the meet- Ing and the principal matters to come up before the association, aside from the topics for discussion, will be the selec tion of the next place of meeting and the election of officers.

Fuuatun tbe Lion of the Oc casion, but There Were Fathers, Mothers and Sweethearts to Greet the Rank and File—Affeot lnar Scenes at the Depot — Fnnaton Gets Ills Sword. TOPEKA. Kan.. Nov. 2—Returnlng ■warriors never received a morp royal welcome home than that accorded today to the soldiers of "Kansas' famous fight ing Twentieth," on its arrival from San Francisco. Gen. Frederick Funston came In for the lions share of attention shown to the officers, and the "Little Hero of Manila" was literally taken off his feet by his admirers in their eagerness to display their regard for him. At every station in Kansas after the Colorado line was crossed early this morning, cheer ing crowds met the soldiers and greeted them in unstinted fashion. The schools and colleges aWmg the line were closed, business was practically suspended, and the people flocked to the trains by the thousands. Bnow in the mountains had delayed the trains, and it was 12:55 this afternoon be fore the first section reached Topeka. The three other sections followed closely, the last squad of soldiers being landed shortly before 4 o'clock. So many thousands of peophe were on the platform and the railroad tracks that the train had to fairly crowd into the de pot. Whistles screeched, cannon boomed, dozens of bands played, and the cheers were almost deafening. From every car window leaned soldiers waving hats, yell- Ing and whocping Bhrill hurrahs. They leaped from the car steps before the train stopped, and fell into the arms of friends, who grasped and hugged them, and pass ed them on to eager relutives and sweet hearts. Fathers and mothers pushed through the crowd in a frantic endeavor to find "their boy." Many affecting scenes were enacted. FIGHTING FUNSTON. Gen. and Mrs. Funston were In the rear Pullman of the first section. When the train came to a stop there was a rush to get to them, and it took half a dozen strong men to keep the people off the car platform. A woman spied Mrs. Funaton at a window, and pushed her baby up to be kissed by the general's wife. Mrs. Funston complied promptly, and immedi ately dozens of mothers reached forward with their babies to be kissed. Gen. Funston was hardly off the car belore ha was half dragged, half carried up stairs into the dining room. Solid blocks of people rilled every street leading, to the depot, and the city was tasked to Its utmost to care for its guests. It seemed as if the whole state of Kan sas had come to town, and it is estimated that fully 60.000 outsiders were here. Tons of bunting had been used in deco rating the buildings, and electrical and other decorations were used with a lavish hand. The weather was glorious. With the exasperating and unavoidable delay In the arrival of the trains bringing the soldiers, it was after 4 o'clock when the parade began. A guard of honor for the boys of the Twentieth was the Civil war veterans, members of the national guard and many civic orders. There were three bands in the parade, the perform ers numbering nearly 1,000 musicians. The- 1 entire parade was over two miles long and was a mass of cheering humanity. GRAND PARADE. Gen. Funston, with hiß wife, rode in the carriage of honor, while Col. Metcalf, on a white charger, and Lieut. Col. Little, on a prancing black, took their appointed stations at the head of the regiment. All received ovations at every point on the line. At the state house the state militia orders were drawn up in line on the south steps. Chief Justice Doster, in a brief speech, introduced Gen. J. K. Hudson, who, on behalf of the people of Kansas, presented the beautiful $1,000 sword to Gen. Funston. In a short speech of ac ceptance, Gen. Funston said he predicted that In one year's time the island of Luzon would be as quiet as Massachu setts. "I return to Manila," said he, "and unless I get sick or die I will not return until the war is over." Col. Metcalf followed Gen. Funston In a brief speech. Later In the evening an elaborate banquet was served in the new state library rooms to the soldiers and officers of the Twentieth. The day closed with the most magnifi cent display of fireworks in the evening ever given in the state's history. INDORSE THE GRAB Continued From First Pace. plicity of tribes inhabiting the archi pelago, the diversity of languages— which are mutually unintelligible— and the mul tifarious phf-.ses of civilization, ranging all the way from the highest to the low est. As to this the report says: "Tho Filipinos are not a nation, but a variegated assemblage of different tribes and peoples and their organization Is still of thj tribal type." Concerning tlu-lr intellectual capabili ties, the commission says: "As to the intellectual capacities of the Filipinos the commission is Inclined to rate them high. But except in a lim ited number of persons these capabilities havo not beer developed by education or experience. The masses of the people are uneducated. "Should our power by any fatality be withdrawn, the commission believe that the government of the Philippines would speedily lapse into anarchy, which wouM excuse, if it did not necessitate, the in tervention of other powers and the event ual division of tho islands emong them.

FILIPINOS RESTLESS. Are Suspicious of Every Move Made by Americans. MANILA, Nov. 2.— Aguinaldo has issued a proclamation announcing that the American congress will meet In December to decide whether the "imperialistic pol icy" and "this bloody work" are to be continued. He exhonts nis followers to conduct themselves so that congress will consider them worthy of independent*', and requests the prt^stjs to abstain from politics and to redeem the church from the bad name the misdeeds of the friars have given it. ,j m A crisis in the Filipino cabinet Is pre dicted as the result of the resignations of Paterno and Buencßmiao, two Filipino leaders, who have lost the confidence of the rabid revolutionists. ' Some Filipinos who attempted to come to Manila with the Spanish commission received a message from' Maj. Gen. Otis saying the women and; children would be given American ; protection, but that the men who had cast their lot with the Insurrection must remain with them. The party Included a brother of Gen. Luna, who was assassinated by a guard in front of Agulnaldo's army, with his family, and the Filipino secretary of the treasury's family. The families returned to Tarlac. Lieut. Slavens, of Gen. Mac Arthur's staff, reconnoitering with eighteen men In front of Angeles, discovered a Filipino outpost In a trench. The Filipinos num bered about forty men. As the Filipinos had sighted the Americans, Lieut. Slavens* only course was to charge, and his party rushed to the trench, shooting and yelling. They killed three of the in surgents and wounded several, who, however, succeeded In escaping. Not one of the Americans was hit. The lieu tenant secured valuable information about the enemy's position. The feeling of disquiet aroused at Iloilo by the arrest of Santiago, the wealthy Filipino, who Is charged with forming a revolutionary Junta, has Bub sided. The natives, in their quarter of the town, were restless and were heard chanting the death song at night, with the refrain, "The Americans Sleep." A provost marshal's force surrounded the quarters and drove the suspicious-look- ing natives outside the lines. The Amer icans occupy Iloilo and the adjoining towns of Jaro and Molo, with 4,000 men, consisting 6f the Eighteenth and Twenty sixth regiments, two battalions of the Nineteenth regiment, a detachment of the Sixth regiment and a battery of the Sixth artillery. The Insurgent force is now supposed to be between 4,000 and 5,000 armed men, and many more un armed. Their lines are about 900 yards from Jaro, which is occupied by the Twenty-sixth regiment. The Insurgents are supposed to have five smooth-bore cannon. For a long time past they have been building trenches between Jaro and their stronghold, Santa Barbara, eight miles north. WAR WILL GO ON. Natives Are Determined to Fight to the Bitter. End. MADRID, Nov. 2.— Senor Tomas Are- Jola. president, of the Madrid Filipino committee, said today: "Although our committee has no official character, It is on the best of terms with Aguinaldo and the other members of Vhe Philippine gov ernment. We are persons chosen by the Philippine residents t of Madrid to repre sent and defend the interests of the re public until an official consul shall be ap pointed. "Our main effort now is directed towai'd relieving the Spanish prisoners in the Philippines. We are the medium of com munication between the prisoners and their families. "The war will go on: there is no doubt an that point. We shall obtain an un equivocal victory, and the Americans will end hy evacuating the Islands, whether they want to or not. We hope they will go of their own accord immediately after the next general election. The re-elec tion of President McKinley, of course, would not change the situation. In that case we shall continue the struggle, our cry being always 'independence or death!' "We have now SO.OW soldiers, and we can raise 500,000 when necessary. We shall make no compiomise with the United States. We are fighting for the integrity of our country, for indepen dence, and in the final settlement Ameri ca will not obtain any of the Islands— not even one. "We have all the ammunition we want end an excess of It Wo often force the Americans to fire a great deai, so that after the combat our soldiers can take their empty shells anJ reload them. "We have a few foreign officers in our ranks. Our men have plenty of food. The government has issued a df-eree mak ing general the cultivation of rice, hith erto limited to certain districts. . We have resources in the chase and fishing, besides fruits In unlimited quantity. "It is untrue that thiie £re divisions in vhe Filipino camp. Aguiualdo is- sti'l re spected and is extremely popular. It Is true that a certain number of Filipinos resident In Manila are outwardly favora ble to tho Americans, for fear their in terests may suffer, but they are called trtMtors by the rest of the nation, and the .Americans themselves shun them."

Case That May Test Their Constitu tional StuiuliiiK. rr,Z AS^ NG I° N ' N ° V - 2 - An e *°rt was made oday by Attorney H. P. Shannon, of Chicago to secure the attention of the Lnited States supreme court in the first case to be brought to this court from the new island possessions of the United States. The case is that of A C Farrar-Hickey, who was tried before the provisional court of Porto Rico in Au gust last, and found guilty on a criminal charge. This court was established by the military authorities of Porto Rico, on a proclamation issued by the president, and consists of one civilian and two army officers. Mr. Shannon asks for a writ of certiorari to bring the case to the su preme court, and in doing so pleads the unconstitutionally of the court. Without deciding whether leave would be granted to file the petition for the writ the court asked Mr. Shannon to make the formal presentation of the matter next Monday, the first regular motion day. If the case Ib taken by the court a number of in teresting points will arise in connection with it, not the least of which is the right of the president to constitute the court by mere executive proclamation.

BERLIN, Nov. 2.— The Vossische Zei tung says: "We learn from a well informed source that the Samoan negotiations for a settle ment are drawing to a close. Germany has made a strong effort to maintain the largest Island, but the hope of so doing is very slight. "Germans must learn to reconcile them selves to the idea that it is impossible to keep Samoa. Great Britain cedes the Gilbert and Solomon islands in compensa tion, the whole Micronesia group, except Guam, will be German, and the New Guinea protectorate, by the addition of this group, will become a valuable pos session, which could not be exchanged for Samoa."
