JANUARY 21. 1902. THE PITTSBURG POST. TUESDAY MORNING, DETAILS OF PANAMA OFFER. TO RESORT TO Healthy IVIind in a Healthy Body Stomach and brain affect each other.

A sick stomach sours the disposition and prevents sleep and brain rest, and a sick brain sours the stomach and clogs the bowels. Men of sedentary habits, brain workers who don't get' much exercise, have sick stomachs and bowels, and wear out their brains and nerves.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20. Having failed. after two years' strife, in subduing tne insurrection in Batangas province, which lies just south of and having satisfied himself that lenient treatment of the insurgents is productive of no good results. General J.

Franklin Bell, the mili tary commander in that province, ha de termined on the enforcement of the war in the most vigorous and determined fashion, involving reconoentration in a modified form, the application of martial law in ail directions, and the unsparing pursuit and punishment of the natives who' act ns spies and traitors to the United States. All this appears from a long report to the war department just published. The reconcentration- order la dated at Batan- gas, December last. In substance It provides for the establishment of a sone around the garrisons into which the friendly inhabitant are to be required to come under penalty of confiscation and destruction of their property. This is said to be necessary to prevent tne collection of forced contributions from the mnaoi tants by the Insurgent.

The military ot- liren aiinwod to fix the price or neces- saries of life, and it is promised that the people may return as soon as ptace-ui conditions are established. Wealthy People Responsible. This order is followed by a long circu lar- i.v PrfntMi Hell to his station com manders, commenting on existing condi tions, and giving them advice now to proceed.

i If United States Is to Spend $40,000 to Entertain Royalty, Royalty Should Reciprocate. DE ARMOND ON THE BOER WAR. WASHINGTON, Jan. 20. The time of the Houae of Representatives wax- occupied to-day in general debate on the urgent deficiency appropriation bill.

An Item in the bill carrying $500,000 for a mili tary post at Manila precipitated a long debate, which some of the ablest men on both sides of the House took part. A semi-humorous speech by Mr. Clark, of Missouri, elicited a reply from Mr Cannon, of Illinois, which In turn drew the fire of Mr. DeArmond. of Missouri, Mr.

Richardson, the Democratic leader. pressed Mr. Cannon to know under what law It waa proposed to appropriate w) for a permanent military, post "at Ma nil a. The chairman of the appropriations committee replied that there was no specific law to establish such a military post. but whether under the general organization of tho army In the field such an ap propriation was in order it would re main for the chairman of the committee of the whole to determine when the appropriation was reached.

To Entertain Prince Henry. "When pressed for an explanation as to tne reason for the proposed amironriat ton of Ho.ooo. for the emergency fund of the ciaie oepartment Mr. Cannon admitted inai was for the entertainment of rinre Henry, of Germany. -My under standing, said he, "la that the emperor i oermany addressed a letter to the president of the United States informing him that his brother.

Prince Henry, was about to visit the United States and was especially charged with a message of con Kratuiation and good will to the people of the United States. The President conceived it to be his duty as the head of a Kreai nation, properly to receive and en terrain trie representative of another Ki'-at nation. 'Precedent for hi course existed in the c-usw oi tne entertainment of Princess in lKi. From every standpoint I ueiiee it is apt and nrouer that ihcr. thoulri be suitable entertainment of the it-jirf seruative of a great people beyond who have given us so mtnh of iur wne and brawn and brain." UJen -rm appiaune.j Expenses of Special Embassy.

Air. iark (Mo.) wanted to know who was going to pay the expense-! of extraordinary aggregation of talent consisting of Vv'hlteiaw Reid. Captain Clark, t.eneral Wilson, young Pierpont Morgan ana younar Wetmorc ir. iu patched tn London to see "hia sacred inajtfty. King Edward Vlf." crowned.

AN were to pay the expenses of Prince Henry'i vldt, said Mr. Clark, and it was a poor rule that did not work both ways. it was right and proper for us to pay lor the entertainment of Prince Henry why should not Kngland pay the expenses of Reid, Clark and the others? He nuid he was "teetotally t. paying a cent on that head. Jlut he waa glad to entertain Prince Jlenry.

because it would "give the He" to the Inioression certain Anglomanlacs ere frying to foster, that we were in wigue with Kngland against Germany. Mr. Clark also indulged in some general comments on the vast increase in governmental expenditure, which had grown, he said, from tl.T.2 per capita in ltf to 112 per capita last yeaj-. If lnsieted that if tnese "riotous government expenditures" went on the Republic would topple over of Us own weight. He character-izt-d Mr.

Cannon's fctaternent that we would hold on to the Philippines "forever and a day" as a "most idiotic and melan- cnoiy oeclaratton." Holding onto th Philippines, he said, already cost th i mi to ciaiea and was now costing at the rata of a month War for Freedom. Air. DeArmond defended the war for tne Ulceration of Cuba. It was not de signed a a war of spoliation. Its objects ami fruits were not turned Into criminal aggression by the Uemocrata.

That kuIU belonged to the Republicans. There was nothing logical in connecting the war for the relief of Ctlba and the perpetual occupation of the Philippines by force of arms. Continuing he he would have corned at the beginning the suggestion that starting as deliverers, starting In as the champions of freedom, as the rescuers of the oppressed, we ourselves in turn should become the spoilsmen and the oppressors and the tyrants. The English civilization which Mr. Can non gloried in, continued Mr.

DeArmond, was th vaunted civilization against which men, women and children were struggling end dying in South Africa in defense of liberty. The attitude of the mighty English nation in South Africa, lie said, was somewhat similar to our in the Philippines, but he believed that eventually the American people would be aroused to the-enormity of their attitude and in their sober second thought would refuse to allow themselves to be made the dupes of those who would make us examples of the same civilization which wns slaughtering libertv In Kouth Africa. The speaker and Mr. Grosvenor (O.) had tut over tne tact that William Bryan had helped to secure ratification of the treaty with Spain. Mr.

DeArmond said the war was over and he be lieved the people should be relieved of the expense of the army. If Mr. Bryan Jiad supposed that It was thf Intention of those in power to hold th Philippines at tne point or tne oayonet, and Inaug urate a colonial policy, the treaty never would have been ratified.

MURDOCH CO Successors to A. M. J. B. Murdoch, Everything Included Except 1,100 Shares of Stock Held by Private Individuals.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 20. The Presi dent to-day transmitted to Congress the supplemental report of the Isthmian canal commission, in which It is unani mously rooonimendwl that the offer of new. Panama Canal Company to sell its rights, property anl unfinished work to th T'nited States for accepted.

The rrort Rives In Mil the rnrraTintinin rtoiuppii i no rnmmirisinn and the Panama Canal Company; at Paris. The offer Includes parcels of land, amounting to 30.000 acres, which cover nearlv all of the ground required for the actual construction of the canal; 2,431 buildiOKS. an Immense amount or machinery, and all excavation work ac complished upon the main canal line. The value of the work already done is esti mated at 122,895, 028 less contingencies es timated at The oner also embraces all of the existing 70,000 shares of the Panama Railroad and Canal Com pany, except 1,100 shares held by In Europe and the United States. Against this property are mortgage bonds amounting to fct.43a.0O0.

Of this amount the canal company owns SST1.000 and holds In its treasury $1,064.000,. subject sale or cancellation. I he estimated cost of constructing the Nicaragua canal is given as 145,630,704 more than the cost of completing the Panama canal. The offer received from the new Pana ma canal company to convey all its property, including all. its interest in the Panama railroad, to the United States will make the estimated cost of the two canals as follows: Nicaragua, 062: Panama.

J1S4.233.30S. The grant must be not for a term of years, but in perpetuity, and a strip of territory from wean to ocean of suffi cient width must be placed under the control of the United States. In this strip the United States must have the right to enforce police regulations, preserve or der, protect property rights and exercise such other powers as are appropriate and necessary. The business relations be tween the railroad and canal companies and the Colombian government must also be settled, and the consideration to be paid by the United States for the privi leges and rights to be exercised iu the future must be agreed upon free from. all embarrassment with reference to past transactions.

The commission has no power to enter upon negotiations for the arrangement of tnese matters; they belong to the treaty- making power, Dut the acceptance of the terms tn- the new fanama canal company should be conditioned upon their satisfactory adjustment. The advantages of the two canal routes have been restated according to the findings of the former report. There has been no change in the views of the commission with reference to any of these conclusions then reached: but the new proposition submitted by the new Panama canal company makes a reduction of near ly 70.0rtO,OuO in the -st of a canal across the Isthmus of Panama, according to the estimates contained in the former report. The state department will now proceed to arrange a protocol with Minister SHva, engaging Colombia to approve th transfer of the franchise of the Panama com pany and to make any desirable exten sions of time, both in the allowance for the completion of the canal and in the life oi tne lease.
