SLAP AT SOCIALISM I
EMPEROR WILLIAM ADDRESSES
THJE RECTORS OF TECHNICAL
HIGH SCHOOLS
REMAKXS WERE SIGNIFICANT
Dwelt I poii the Growing Importance
of the Technical Sciences, and
Emphasized Fact That Men Grad
uating From Technical High
School.* Exert Influence Upon De
velopment of Social Questions.
BERLIN, Jan. 9.—Emperor William
when receiving the rectors of the three
technical high schools today, made an ad
dress of the highest importance. For the
first time he spoke openly about social-
Ism, saying:
"Social democracy I regard as evanes
cent, but you must make plain to your
Undents their social and economic duties
towards the workingmen."
His majesty dwelt on the growing im
portance of the technical sciences, as
serting that German technology acquired
the greatest reputation abroad, even in
England, where he had heard, he said,
. many appreciative remarks. Twice he
emphasized the fact that men gradu
ating from technical high schools exerted
enormous influence upon the develop
ment of social questions.
This summary of the emperor's address
was given this evening: at the centenary
of the Berlin high schools by the rector
of the institution, Prof. Kihler, and the
Btudems showed a keen appreciation of
the Imperial teachings.
Owing to the poor acoustics of the hall
and slight hoarseness the emperor modi
fled his original programme and did not
deliver a speech before the students them
selves. The meeting was attended by a
number of the highest government of
ficials, the minister of the interior, Count
PoSsdowski-TVehner.and others. The con
ferring of the first doctorate upon Prince
Henry, of Prussia, was accompanied by a
brief eulogy, instancing the prince as a
promoter of technical sciences just now
returning- rrom an Important diplomatic
mission. The prince will receive a series
Jf highest ovations when he arrives.
VEXES THE GERMANS. .
The seizure of German vessels by Brit
ish warships is still uppermost in the
uublic mind in Germany. Emperor Will
lam confers dally, sometimes twice a day,
tvith the foreign secretary, Count yon
Buelow, upon the situation, which was
described this afternoon as extremely
:ritical. Great Britain's reply to Ger
many's demand for an explanation ar
rived in Berlin today, from Lord Salis
bury, und it is understood the tone of
the British, answer is conciliatory, and
that its argument is plausible from the
British point of view.
The main difference between the British
and Gorman contentions regarding the
Justice of the-seizure is in the interpreta-.
tion placed upon contraband, and the
right to search, and it seems possible
that an agreement will soon be reached
between the two government.
The (lerraan foreign office is Indignant
that Hi" Britten authorities in Cape Town
stop even the letters and official mail
matter sent to German consuls In Pre
toria and Johannesburg.
The speech from the throne, today, at
the opening of the diet, is generally re
garded as weak and colorless. Without
floubt it was intentionally non-rommittal,
10 as no I to offend the Conservatives on
the subject of a new canal bill. This
■apposition is strengthened by the pass
age In which hope was expressed that
the government and people would labor
together harmoniously arid in which aid
Is promised to suffering agriculture. The
leading Conservative paper, the Kreuz
Zeltunir, says:
"The speech from the thrt ne contained
DR. COLE'S
Creo treatment acts directly on the
Genito-Urinary organs of both men
and women, in all cases, strengthen
ing, invigorating, revitalizing and re
juvenating those organs, imbuing them
with new life and Imparting to them
the vitality that they sriouid possess,
causing them to perform their func
tions naturally, with ease and comfort.

no political surprises, the passage about
the canal being concilllatory."
The Vosslsche Zeitung- says the speech
was "dry and sober, containing nothing
new."
The Berliner Tageblatt says that the
"speech in its busin?ss'.ike soberness fol
lows Prussian traditions." •
The Deutsche Tages Zettung says:
"The government will please keep In
mind the fact that if the Agrarian dele
gates again reject the canal bill they
will do so in the exercise of their consti
tutional rights."
The National Zeitung says:
"The speech was characterized by a
total lack of that political directness
which has been the rule of the Prussian
government since the canal crisis last
summer."
GERMAN DIET OPENED.
Finances of Prussia Pronounced In
Satisfactory Condition.
BERLIN, Jan. 9.—At the opening of the
diet today Prince Hohenlohe, the impe
rial chancellor, read the speech from the
throne, wherein It was shown that the
finances of Prussia are in a satisfactory
condition. The year of 1898-99 closed with
considerable surplus, and the current
year, the chancellor said, was expected
to give favorable results. The estimates
for 1900 maintained an equilibrium and
the revenue of the state railroads con
tinued satisfactory.
The speech from the throne also an
nounced the introducttioTi of a bill for
the construction of light railroads, the in
troduction of the Rhine-Elbe canal bill
after the completion of the proposed wa
terway for large ships between Berlin
and Stettin and other river improvements
and the intention of the government to
make the port of Emden available for
trans-oceanic steamers, with the object
of making the Rhenish commerce inde
pendent of foreign ports. The speech
concluded with promising the greatest
possible attention to the interests of
agriculture.
STILLWATER.
A Prisoner Wl»o*e Term Expire** To
day In Wanted in lowa.
The Stillwater Manufacturing company,
of this city, yesterday began enlarging
its plant on North Main street. A couple
of years ago a one-story structure was
added on the south side of the factory,
and for the purpose of gaining needed
floor space this structure will be raised
two stories. The factory will then b«
110x90 feet. During the past few months
the company has taken an unusually
large number of orders in this country
and the Hawaiian islands, the latest be
ing an order for the interior furnishings
of a new hotel to be built at Hawaii.
Warden Reeve has been notified from
lowa that a sheriff will be at the prison
tomorrow to apprehend A. Ottteson, re
ceived at the prison from Mower county,
to serve two years for grand larceny, and
whose term expires in the morning. The
man is very ill with consumption, and he
will not be held unless the officer ar
rives.
The Ideal Flouring- Mill company held
a meeting on Monday and decided to
wind up the affairs of the present com
pany. When this is done a reorganization
will probably be effected.
At the meeting of the Stillwater Com
mercial club Monday evening C. P. Stine,
secretary of the St; Paul Commercial
club, was present and gave a .talk, on
how the St. Paul club is conducted. Mr.
Stine's remarks were listened to with
pleasure and profit, and at the conclu
sion the club tendered him a unanimous
vote of thanks.
The January meeting of the board of
prison managers will be held at the pris
on this morning. A large number of ap
plications for parole will be consideded.
Rudolf Falk and Herman Johnson have
been received at the prison from Chip
pewa county, the former to serve nine
months and the last named ten months
for grand larceny in the second degree.
A number of Stillwater sportsmen will
attend a gun club tournament in Min
neapolis tomorrow.
The Independent Order of Foresters
will install officers and give a dance in
Elks' hall this evening.
A large meeting was held at the Armory
last evening for the purpose of discussing
the question or reorganizing Company X,
of the First regiment. N. G. S. M. Ad
dresses were made by Gen. Reeve and
others in favor of reorganizing, and
twenty members of the company who
went to Manila signed the provisional
roll Of enlistment. Lieut. Grant and
Messrs. Burllngham, McMillan, Johnson
and Gilder were appointed to secure ad
ditional names. The reorganization will
be completed at a meeting to be held
next Thursday evening.
PRIZE MONEY LITIGATION.
Claims of Admiral Dewey and Force
Being Argued.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 9.-The claim of
Admiral Dewey and the officers and men
of his squadron for bounty arising out
of the destruction of Montojo's fleet In
Munila bay was argued before the court
of claims today. The question at is3u«
■was the total amounl of the bounty to
be paid under statute providing tor the
payment by the government of $100 head
money for every man aboard vessels
desiros-ed in battle, where the force of
the enemy is inferior and $200 where the
force of the enemy is superior. The cou
tention of the claimants was that tha
force of the enemy was superior at Ma
nila bay, also that the land batteries
and submarine mines should be consid.
cred in deciding the question.
Assistant Attorney General Pradt
argued against the claim for $200 "bead
money," taking the ground that the
statute expressly stipulated "vessels"
Bad contained nothing as to "land bat
ler>s» ."•
THE ST. PAUL GLOBE, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 10, 1900.
CUBA AND PBILIPPINES
SENATOR HOAR CANNOT SEE IN
WHAT PARTICULAR THEIR
CASE* DIFFER
OUTLINES HIS ARGUMENT
Doe* Not Flavor Yielding; Anything
to Force or Fear—Gives an Ex>
Initiative Hemimo of Philippine
Issue, Intending: to show the In
justice of Proposed Seizure and
Retention of the Country.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—Senator Hoar,
of Massachusetts, tonight made public
a long letter he had addressed to the ed
itors of the Journal, Advertiser, Herald
and Globe, of Boston, in answer to a
speech made by L. P. Qulgg, at the Es
sex club, the last Saturday in December.
In the speech Mr. Qulgg, referring to
Senator Hoar's attitude on the Filipino
question, declared that the "senator
wants us to skulk from our duty." Sen
ator Hoar takes the words quoted as hl3
text, and says, in part:
"I wish to place against this statement
my most emphatic denial. What I want
the American people to do is to do in
the Philippines exactly what we have
done, are doing and expect to do In
Cuba. We have liberated both from
Spain, and we have had no thought—at
least I have had no thought—of giving
either back to Spain. I should as soon
give back a redeemed soul to Satan as
give back the people of the Philippine
islands to the cruelty and tyranny of
Spain. Indeed, pince they got arms, an
army and in organization, I do not be
lieve it would be in the power of Spain
to subdue them again. But the United
j States, in my judgment, should never have
allowed her to make the attempt. Hav
ing delivered them from Spain we were
bound in all honor to protect their newly
acquired liberty against the ambition or j
greed of any other nation on earth. And j
we are honorably bound to protect them j
against our own. We were bound to stand i
by them as a defender and a protector
until the new government was estab
lished in freedom and in honor; until they
had made treaties with the powers, and
were more secure in their national in
dependence, as Switzerland and Cuba or
as Haytl and Santo Domingo are secure.
Now, if this is skulking from duty, I fail
to see it.
"We based our policy in regard to Cuba,
did we not, on the ground that it was the
policy of righteousness and liberty. We
did not tempt the cupidity of any mil
lionaire, or even the honest desire for em
ploy.nent of any workman, by the argu
ment that if we reduced the people of
Cuba to our dominion we should make
money out of her and she could benefit
herself. In those days we were appeal
ing to the great noble heart of the Amer
ican and not to the breeches pocket.
CAN SEE NO DIFFERENCE.
"If we were bound in honor and right
eousness, as a matter of principle, to ab
stain from depriving Cuba of the liberty
chat was given her because it was right,
in my Judgment we are all the more j
bound to abstain from depriving the peo- j
pie of tlie Philippines of their liberty, be- j
cause it is right.
"If I am right to affirming ths as a mat- !
ter of principle, then the question be- !
comes a question of fact. Are not the
people of the Philippines entitled to their !
liberty as well as the people of Cuba? I
Do they desire their independence or not? I
Are they fit to govern themselves as are
the people of Cuba? Have they contrib
uted as much to achieving their independ
ence as had the people of Cuba? Do they
desire their independence, as do the peo
ple of Cuba? Are they fit to govern
themselves as are the people of Cuba?
Have they forfeited their right to inde
pendence by any misconduct, such as
attacking the army of the United States
wantonly and without provocation?
"Now the facts which enable ua to an
swer all the questions about which the
people have been so much misled during
the last summer come to us at length
from the reports of the commanders of
our army and navy in the Philippine isl
ands. I have two witnesses to call, Gen.
Otis and Admiral Dewey. Wnile I may
not adopt all their conclusions as to pol
icy (and it is not the special business of
soldiers or sailors to determine the poli
cies of the country), I have no desire to
go beyond them and the men for whom
they vouch in the matter.
"But before citing the evidence, let me
state that I would do today, as I have
stated, what I desired to do before the
war broke out. The Philippine armies
are scattered. Aguinaldo is a fugitive
and in concealment. Whether they will
disperse like foam when they are attack
ed, coming together like a thunder cloud,
and in the end wear out the patience of
the conquerer, it is not worth while to
speculate. It is not from any fear of any
foemen, powerful or insignificant, that
the American people are to determine
their duty. If the thing .be right they
mean to do it. If it be wrong they will
not do it. I would send Gen. Wood or
Gen. Miles or Admiral Dewey to Luzon.
I would have him gather about him a
cabinet of the best men among the Fili
pinos who have the confidence of the peo
ple and desire nothing but their welfare.
In all provinces and municipalities where
civil government is now established, pos
sessing the confidence of the people, I
would consult with their ruiers and rep
resentatives. I would lend the aid of the
army of the United States only to keep
order. I would permit the people to make
laws and to administer laws, subject to
some supervision or inspection, until the
disturbed times are over and peace has
settled again upon the country, insuring
the security of the people against avarice,
ambition or peculation. So soon as it
seems that government can maintain it
self peacefully and in order, I would by
degrees withdraw the authority of the
United States, making a treaty with them
that we would protect them against the
cupidity of any other nation and would
lend our aid for a reasonable time to
maintain order and law. I would not
hesitate, If it were needful, although I
have not the slightest belief that it would
be needful, to vote to make them a loan
of a moderate sum to replenish their
wasted treasury."
CASE SUBMITTED.
Senator Hoar's letter then asserts that
the dispatches of Admiral Dewey and
Gen. Otis (some of the latter read by
him, he says, having been withheld thus
far from public knowledge) establish be
yond reasonable doubt:
_1. That Aguinaldo j 3 an honest, pa

triotic and brave man. Indeed, that 1*
the express testimony of- Mr. Schurinan,
president af the Philippine commission,
2. That Agutnaldo-was the-chosen lead
er of the people of the Philippine islands.
3. That the people from the beginning
have desired Independence and desire it
now.
4. That "this desire was communicated
t© j our commanders when they-gave them
arms, accepted their aid and brought
Aguinaldo from his -:«xH-ti; when he was
put in command of 30,000> Bilipino soldiers,
who were-already in artfis and organized.
6. That the people of 3.the Philippine
islands, before we fired upon their troops,
had delivered their own land from Spain,
with the single exeeptidh-of the town of
Manila, and that tlfey hemmed in the
Spanish troops on land tot a line extend
ing from water to tfaterr
6. That We- could >met >have captured
the Spanish garrison, which was done by
an arrangement beforehand upon a mere
show of resistance, biit'for the fact that
they were so hemmed in :by Aguinaldo's
forces and could note retrieat beyond the
range and fire of thef gunß of our fleet.
7. That during all tflii* period, from the
beginning to the final conflict, the Fili
pfnos were repeatedly informing our gov
ernment that they desired their freedom,
and that they were*<n«ver informed of
any purpose on our p*ri to subdue them.
8. That they Were fit fac. independence.
They had ehuTches, works of
art, and education. They, were better ed
ucated than many American communities
within the memory of some of us. They
were governing their entire island except
Manila, in order and quiet, with munici
pal governments, coucta-.. of- justice,
schools, and a complete constitution rest
ing upon--the--oonßent of sthe-people. They
were better fitted - for- self-government
than any country-on the American eon?
tinent' south of us, from, the Rio Grande
to Cape Horn;; -or- thanr San..Domingo..or .
Hayt'i, when these countries, respective
ly achieved their-ladependeuce,-. and are
fitter" for self-government than some of
them arc-now. They- are .now., as ..fit far
self-government as was Japan when she
was welcomed Into the family of .nations.
9. That the outbreak of hostilities was
not their fault ,- tw*t ours. A. oatrojl, .not
a hostile 'military force, approached a
small villaKe between <the lines., of the
two armies; a village on the American
side of the line of demarkation to which
sortie of our soldiers had been. moved in
disregard to. the rule> applicable to all
cases of the truce. When this patrol ap
proached this town Jt was challenged.
How far the Filipinos understood our'
language or how far-our pickets under
stood the reply that they made in theli
own language does not appear. But we
tired upon them first. The ftre was re
turned from their linos. Thereupon It
was returned again from us, and several
Filipinos were killled; As soon as Aguin
aldo heard of it' he sent a messenger to
Gen. Otis saying that the firing was
j without his knowledge and against his
j will, that he deplored it, and that he de
j sired hostilities to cease, and would with-
I draw his troops to any distance Gen. Otis
I should desire, to which the American
general replied as the fighting had begun
it must go on.
10. That Qn the 28th' of December. 3898,
the two sides being at peace, although
great irritation and. uneasiness had al
ready manifested itself on the part of ihe'
Filipinos, who were 1 afraid we meant to
subjusrate. President Mc'Kinley sent to
Gen. Otis a proclamfctienv which he com
manded him to issue. Gen. Otis, on
reading: it—to use the.language of his re
port—concluded that theirs were certain
words and expressions' tjherein, such as
"sovereignty," "right ofi cession,"--and
those who directed immediate occupation,
etc, though most admirably employed
and tersely expressive of actual condi
tions, mig-ht be advantageous*- used by
the Tagalo war paFty Jto incite wide
spread hostilities among (he natives.
• ♦ ♦ Whereupon Gen. Otis proceeds to
amend the president's proclamation by
striking out everything in it which con
tains a purpose to; assume sovereignty
or protection, and which was significant
of future political domination; and in
stead thereof he issued^ a proclamation
in which he suppressed all these utter
ances, and assures Uhem that it is the
purpose of the people of the United States
to give them "in every possible wav the
full measure of individual rights and
liberty which is the heritage of a free
people."
PLANS FRUSTRATED.
"That assurance which Gen. Otis gave
! the people of Manila is just what I have
I always wanted and all I have always
j wanted to give them.; But, unhappily,
| Gen. Otis' proclamation was frustrated.
I In the meantime he had sent a copy of
I tha president's proclamation to Gen.
Miller, who was' lying opposite Iloilo,
burning for a fight, and who, much to
Gen. Otis' distressy -as- his dispatches

your fathers have done if Gen. Gage and

CLARK INQUIRY.
Debate on Philippine Question Re
tarded It.
"WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-The debate
upon the Philippine question in the sen
ate today had the effect of reducing to
about an hour and a half In time the sit
tings of the committee on privileges and
elections in the case of Senator Clark, of
Montana. When the .committee adjourri
ed'at noon It was with the expectation
that an afternoon session would be -tteld,
but the expectation was disappointed be
cause of the desire of the members of the
committee to be present at the Philippine
discussion.

witness before the committee, this mak
ing the third day he had been on the
stand. He was again today under cross
examination by ex-Senator Faulkner,
and when the committee adjourned at
noon Mr. Faulkner said he had covered
.only about half the ground he tia'd laid
out to cover in his inquiries.
• •'•The efforts of the defense were direct
ed today to breaking down Whiteside'a
direct testimony and his statements made
in Montana, and to show that either Jiis
memory was poor or he spoke* falsely.
The questions turned upon comparatively
small points as to times and places he
had had conversations reported by him
and when the events detailed by him had
transpired.
. The defense revealed its purpose
through a brief statement made by Mr.
Foster, to the effect that they expected
to show that Mr. Whiteside himself had
placed In the envelopes the $30,000 in $1,000
bills, which were turned over to the state
treasury.
