WT.” LEITER’S MOTOR DEAL.
He Has Great Confidence in the Compres-
sed-Air System.
Chicago, Dec. 15.—Joseph Leiter
as enthusiastic over his compressed
air company as he was over his wheat
deal. He has secured control of the
International Air Power Company and
the American Air. Motor Company,
having seven million dollars capital,
and has the right to operate compres-
sed air motors in this country and
Europe. _
“It cannot be said any longer, said
Mr. Leiter, “that this new system of
using compressed air as power is an
experiment. It has been thoroughly
tested on the Metropolitan Traction
Company’s line in One Hundred and
Sixteenth street, New York city, and
as a result that company is installing
a plant for the use of air power on
7)..
its lines in Twenty—eighth, Twenty-
ninth and Thirty—fourth streets. The
compressor plant is being built at
Twenty—fourth strct and the East riv-
er. '
“The air is compressed in cylinders,
arranged in multiple series. In the
first cylinder the air is reduced till i‘.‘
gives a pressure of sixty pounds to
the square inch against the atmos—
phere, which itself has a pressure of
thirty-two pounds to the square inch
against a vacuum. Then the air is re-
duced in a. second cylinder eight times.
that is, till its compass is one—eighth
what it was in the first cylinder, and
its pressure eight times as great. or
430 pounds to the square inch._ The
same multiple is preserved in the next
compression, so that in the third cyl--
lnder in the compressor plant the air
has a pressure of 3,840 pounds to the
square inch. There is no waste of
power at any time.”
TO SETTLE lN MANILA.
the Philippine Development Association
of American Volunleers.
Manila, Dec. 15.-—At an enthusiastic
meeting of the Astor Battery yester-
day preliminary steps were taken to
establish the Philippine Development
Association of American Volunteers to
prombte the development of the is—
lands when the volunteers are dis—
charged.
W'hile “illing to bear arms as long
as 1equired, many volunteeis desire to
remain here and engage in various en-
terprises.
The association proposes to request
the United States authorities to grant
the discharge of volunteers desirous of
settling here, and will urge that the
men be granted a travelling allowance,
in lieu of transportation, when their
time has expired.
The Astor Battery has been ordered
to deliver up its equipment to the
quartermaster, preparatory to embark-
ing on a homeward bound transport.
Official advices from Iloilo contain
the names of the members (if the newly
formed Visuyan republic.
A proclamation issued by the gov—
ernor general salutes “the sovereignty
of the Visayas and expresses the hope
that “under God’s protection they will
soon be a free people under the shadow
of the tricolor banner and on the ba—
sis of the constitution of the Filipino
republic.”
Indian Appropriation Bill.
VVashlngton, D. 0., Dec. 15.—The
House committee on Indian affairs has
completed its work on the Indian ap-
propriation bill and it will be reported
to the House to-day.
The bill carries about $7,500,000. The
usual appropriation 'of twenty thous-
and dollars for educating Indian chil-
dren at the Lincoln Institute at Phila-
delphia was stricken out on the
ground that the school by its charter
was a sectarian institution (Episcopal-
ian).
The appropriation for the Carlisle
Indian School was increased from
$121,000 to $150,000, conditional on in-
creasing its facilities so as to care for
one thousand Indians.
The report will not mention Cardinal
Gibbons's petition for the reopening
of the question of aid for secular in—
stitutions engaged in educating the In—
dians.
Congo Natives on ‘Varpath.
Brussels, Dec. 15.—Advices received
here from 'the governor of the Upper
Congo confirm the news brought by the
steamer Leopoldville, from Africa,
which arrived at Aiitwm‘p yesterday,
that four Belgian traders had been kil—
led and eaten by the natives of Upper
Ubanghi.
T The governor adds that the traders'
escort of thirty soldiers were massa—
cred, and that another detachment of
forty soldiers, in charge of five white
officers, who were proceeding to the us-
sistance of the traders, were surprised
.by the natives and all were put to
death.
Senator Kenney’s Trial.
W’ilmlngton, Del., Dec. 15.—In the
trial of Senator Kenney, District At.
torney Vandegrift yesterday caused a
surprise by making a, motion that the
government be permitted to reopen its
case for the admission of testimony
refuting the explanation given by
Senator Kenney at the close of Tues-
day’s session with respect to the vou-
cher indicating that Kenney had re-
ceived Bay State Gas stock amounting
to $3,000 as part payment for a year's
services as private counsel to the
company.
The motion was strenuously objected
to.

due North German Lloyd line steamer

ARMY INCREASE PLANS
Corbin Says Fifty Thousand Men
Far Cuba.
MILES SAYS 25,000 WILL DO
Twenty-five Thousand Required in the
Philippines. The Police Force Needed
In Our New Territory. Statements of
Adjutant-General Corbin to the House
Committee.
Washington, D. 0., Dec. 15.—Adju-
tant General Corbin «appeared yester-
day before the House committtee on
military affairs, which is considering
the bills for increasing and reorganiz-
ig the army.
His statements attracted unusual
interest because of their direct refer-
ence to conditions in Cuba, Porto Rico
and the Philippines, and the military
requirements on which the war de-
partment was acting.
As to the need of an increased army,
General Corbin said that it was a most
serious proposition, adding:
“The Cuban evacuation commission,
.consisting of Generals Wade and But-
ler and Admiral Sampson, has submit-
ted a statement that inorder to prev
serve peace and restore order in Cuba
it will require the presence of an army
of 50,000 men.”
General Corbin said that he would
send this recommendation in confi-
dence, to the committee. but later it
was arranged that it should be sub-
mitted without confidential reserva-
tions.
It was on this recommendation, said
General Corbin, that the plan of send-
ing troops to Cuba was based. It
might be found that fifty thousand
men would not be absolutely requisite,
“but we are holding fifty thousand
men in readiness to go, if required,"
said he.
“As to the Philippines,” he contin-
ued, “General Otis, in command there,
had recommended that twenty-five
thousand men were required there. In
Porto Rico the officers in command
stated that the force now on hand was
about adquate for the requirements.
This force is six thousand men. The
total made eighty-one thousand men,
.fifty thousand for Cuba, twenty-five
thousand for the Philippines and about
six thousand for Porto Rico, leaving
an aunt of one hundred thousand,
with about eighteen thousand for re-
serv cs at home.
“It must be borne in mind,” said
General Corbin, “that an army in time
of peace is like insurance. It is a
preparation for an emergency. If we
had had such an army last June
there would have been no such loss of
life as occurred.”
“Do you think fifty thousand men
for Cuba a conservative estimate?”
asked Mr. Jctt of Illinois.
“I think it is,” answered General
Corbin. '
“And how long will that last?’ ask-
ed Mr. Hay.
“I wish I could say,” answered Gen-
eral Corbin; “but no man can say. You
cannot view conditions in Cuba as you
can in Ohio or Pennsylvania. For one
hundred years the people there have
been accustomed to be ruled by force.
The officers there fear that with these
conditions and habits, if troops are
not there. trouble may occur.”
He went on to show how the Spanish
soldiers had ruled throughout Cuba,
founing even the rural police and the
municipal police force at Havana. As
to the troubl’ which had occurred at
Porto Rico, General Corbin said it was
not due to a disposition -to fight the
United States, but to a, tendency in
certain classes—wandering outlaw
bands—toward disorder.
When questioned by Mr. Hay of Vir—
ginia as to how soon the United States
troops could be withdraivn from Cuba,
General Corbin said it was impossible
to say, even approximately.
“There is not a. man living, in my
judgment,” he said, “who can foresee
even for thirty days, what the future
will bring forth.”
General Miles told the Senate com—
mittee on appropriations yesterday
that he thought twenty—five thousand
men would be enough for Cuba; that
the island must at an early day be
policed by native:
