jr WNI 'M THE EVENING TIMES. WASHINGTON. SATURDAY, AUGUST 13. 1808. rK V- MAY FIGHT AT MANILA A Clash May Come Before (ho News of Peace.

NO LATE NEWS FROM DEWEY DnrlnRr tue Interval of Time Ile-qnlred to Send Advicra via to the Philippine It la Probiible Tlint the American Forcea Has. Made an Aaaanlt. Secretary Alger made an Interesting Btatcment yesterday with reference to the Immediate effect of the cessation of hostilities on the situation in the Philippines. "It Is quite possible that there may be a battle at Manila jet," he said. "The news of the cessation of hostilities cannot reach Gen.

Mrritt and Admiral Dewey for three or four days. We have received no information as to the situation at Manila for several days, but the last messages were not of a character to make fighting seem unlikely, by any means. It may be that Manila has already fallen, and it may be that a great battle is even now raging. It would not be an unprecedented thing for a battle to be fought after the cessation of hostilities, by any menas. The battle of New Orleans was fought after peace was declared." The.

President realizes that the Philippines present one of the knottiest problems of the war and of the peace negotiations. The question of the final ownership of the islands, een if this country can be satisfied, may prevent any result from the deliberations of the peace commission. If the American commissioners contend for the full cession of the Islands to America, and the Spanish commissioners refuse- to gie them up. there must be a deadlock and a beginning of the war again. There howeer, another question that the Administration must take up immediately, the goernment of the Island of Luzon during the months that the peace commission is in session.

America takes possession and assumes control of Manila and the harbor during the peace negotiation, according to the American terms agreed to by Spain In the protocol. The preliminary term of ownership will, it is believed. gio America a Aery accurate insight Into the exact necessities for the gotornment of the entire group. Manila is not onl) the capital of Luzon, but the principal city and the principal seat of the Spanish authority. Nearly the entire Spanish army in the Philippines has been stationed there, and the island has been gaerned from that city.

It has not been decided as jet if America shall require that tho army be remoed from the city during tho peace negotiations. The war commission will decide this point. This matter, howeer, will hae very little effect on the real question of the government of the island. With the Spanish out of authority in Manila, America will be obliged to assume control. The problem of the Insurgents, If there Is to be any, and all the other possibilities of difficult-, ulll hae to be met by Gen.

Mer-rltt In his military go eminent. Gen. Corbin recently made the statement to a reporter for The Times that no anxiety Is felt bj- the "War Department. It Is belleed by army officers and also by Pres'dent McKInlej- tint the bugbear of goerning the Philippines raised by the opponents of annexation will be thoroughly disposed of in this prellm-inarj test before America actually becomes1 their owner. CHAEGES AGAINST CADETS.

A MilrMiiinl I'll ner Snj Gomnsil ('illi-Kf vre Disorderly. The Gonzaga cadets 0f Ganzada College had an excursion down the river to St Mary's, Md on Monday night. The St. JIarj's Beacon published an article oi Thursday describing the isit of the cadets to that tonn. The article Is headed "Iiampant Rowdjlsm" and states that "the joungsters indulged In reprehensible practices and made themseUcs amenable to the law." Some of the offenses charged against the are as follows: "One of them threw a stone through the window of Mr.

Charles ai. Has den's residence; the chairs on Jo. r. Morgan's porch were taken and thrown into the street; the chairs on Mr. Thomas Boyd's porch were put on the sidewalk; Mr.

E. IJ. Abell's jard was entered and his pears destrojed; a bench on the porch of illr. George W. Joy's residence was ripped from its fastenings and set across the sidewalk; Dr.

Pajne's grounds were entered and so was the cornlield near the Ullage and considerable corn pulled and trampled down. They came across the street and saluted the Beason sign with a fusillade of brick and stones. The sign shows seeral dents and a brick was thrown against the side of the house knocking off some plastering." The article goes on to say: "Our citizens are thoroughlj' exasperated over the acts of vandalism and rowdj ism perpetrated by these joung Washington toughs and the major of the town Informs us" that hereafter whenever they land preparations will be made to receive them." It also claimed that many of the citizens of the town were "Blackguarded" by the cadets and the assertions are corroborated by statements from reputable citizens. Father Galllgan, president of Gonzaga College and pastor of St. Aloysius' Church, was shown a copy of the article this morning, and expressed great surprise that he had heard nothing of the matter.

"I am deeply grieved," he said, "that such a statement should have been published. I am confident that there Is a great mistake somewhere, and matters must hae been grossly exaggerated. I hate receUed a letter from Father For-an. one of mj' assistants here, who accompanied the boj-s during their visit to the town, and he has only praise for their actions while there. "The boys were accompanied by Mr.

'Cleanliness." Prompt Service. Best Work. When tou specify a time to have your liundiy delirercd it will be there on time. We employ only expert help, and consequently guarantee the best work. 'Phone 1537 brings our promptly.

SENTIMENT IN CHILE. Milliliter Wll.un Recetven a Grntl-Ij-Iiijt- Testimonial. As Indicating the sentiment In Chile toward the United States, and expressing the view taken of the war between America and Spain, the following ad-dross, delivered to the American minister at Santiago, Hon.

"Thus, they comply, in the name of the institution which they represent, with the highest civic duty in their relations with the International delegates of the countries of both Amerlca3.

which embody In their governments the principles of the universal laws of liberty. "The object of this institution, founded nearly forty years ago. Is to encourage and assist In securing the Independence of the American peoples who still remain subject to the colonial dominion of European nations. "It has labored princlpallj-, by contributing elements of propaganda and of action, for the preservation of the sovereignty of the peoples separated from Spain in 1810, and to secure the absolute Independence of the islands of Cuba and Porto Rico. "On account of the separatist revolution of the Philippine Islands, also dominated by monarchical Spain, we have believed It our dutj-.

In accordance with the objects and aims of this co-poratlon, to indoio such a generous Initiative, and to stimulate with public manifestations the development of that Important movement, which has had Its martvr In Jose Rlzal, and has Its hero In Gen.

"Never has any people on the earth carried out a more generous or exemplars' act than that which the United States shows to the civilized world, offering the blood ard the lives of Its citizens, the treasures of its Imponderable wealth, the power of its scientific and industrial advancement, and the results of the conquests of Its universal culture, to the emancipation movement of Cuba, Porto Rico, and the Philippines, thus affording the most eloquent proof of its noble sen timents of humanltj-, and giving calculating and selfish Europe a moralizing lesson in the face of the unjustifiable collusion against weak and glorious Greece. In view of the barbarous attempt of Turkey to humiliate that ancient nation whose history serves as a constant example to the modern world. "The resolute and magnanimous attitude of the United States on the Cuban question, in placing at the disposal of the Cubans, with the greatest disinterestedness, the vitality of its great resources of progress and lnuL-strv. involves the fundamental princip'e of the policy proclaimed by one of its most illustrious public men.

The changes have been mads with particular reference to the improvement of the work In the Second preclnc, which was placed under Lieut. finer about a ear ago. after an lnvestlgati resulting from the escape of Pat Carr.

It has been a matter of public comment that tho service in this precinct has been below the standard.

Heffner had been handicapped by a lack of men. No.

2 precinct has been short both of men and sergeants. "I want, to give No. 2 precinct plenty of material, and while several privates have already been transferred there from No. 1 precinct, other efforts will be made to better the service.

CUBANS FDRlUTill Believed to Prefer It to an Independent Repnbiic. PRESIDENT MASO FAVORS IT General llomn Reported to Have Come to the Same Conclusion, tia Well aa Many of the Beat Cltl-sena General Garcia, Honei er, Will Oppoae a. Union. President Maso, of the provisional Cuban government, is in favor of annexation lo the United States; so Is Vice President Capote and so too are nearly all members of the cabinet. The recent visit of the vice president to Washington was of far greater importance than appeared on the surface at the time.

Up to the date of his advent the Administration was more or less worried over the future. Just what to do with the Cuban republic after American arms had expelled the Spaniards, was a hard question and one that must Inevitably arise. The attitude of the Cuban civil government has done much in advance to slm-pllfj- he situation. President Maso plainly Indicted in a message to the Washington Government that he believed the Interest of Cubans He In political union with America. "The vast majority of our people of Cuba are agriculturists," he wrote, "and they have no desire to hold office.

To be left alone to the cultivation of the soil and the enjojment of their home life Is all they ask." There is no little doubt, according to information that Is authentic If not official, that while the commission Is engaged In fixing the terms of evacuation a strong petition will be circulated prajing Congress to make Cuba a member of the sisterhood of States Instead of an independent nation. "The outcome of this," said a gentleman who Is A student of the situation and who Is very close to the President, "will be a plebeclte. Once left to a vote of the people annexation Is assured." "Thero Is not the slightest doubt that statehood Is a part of Cuba's destiny." declared "a member of Congress about the time of Capote's -visit to Washington. Tho gentleman knew what Is not jet generallj- known, that the better class of people In Cuba, Including many revolutionists, arc afraid of a mllitaiy dictatorship or despotism after the war Is over, and that they regard absorption bj the great requblic to the north as their only refuge from jears of strife and civil dlsco-d. The prpperty owners, the professional men and the educated classes generallj, vvtiether" thej- were loyal to the mother countrj" or not, look forward anxlously to a restoration of peace and concord.

Thej- wish to rebuild their fortunes and to feel secure In their individual rights. Gen. Gon-ez favors a republic, but the President does not believe he would cause the slightest trouble should his people decide for statehood. Garcia Is not considered as a very influential factor. Ilehas made a good record during the but lie has neither the social standing nor the military prestige of Gomez.

Besides, he has no monej'. Indeed, some of the Cubans themselves believe that If a republic should be created he would almost immediately quarrel wl.h the authorities, and take to tho bush. He that as it may. with "the American liag planted on the Island, pending settlement of the terms of evacuation, the people. It is believed, will at least be given a chance to express their own sentiments on the subject.

In this connection It maj'-lw on the highest official authority, that the Administration has no: the slightest uneasiness concerning the course of the patriots when they -hear that the war has closed. Thej- will respect President Mc-Klnlej-'s proclamation as much as will the American soldiers themselves. Of this the Pres'dent was assured pe-rson-allj' bj' Senor Capote, and, through Mr. Reno, American commissioner, by Gen. Gomez.

As soon as couriers can reach the Cuban cimps hostiltles will cease. 'AH talk to the contrary Is nonsense." said a member of the President's official household esterdaj'. BAILEOAD WASHOUTS.
