,SENATOR MASON’S views.
[1e 13 Ashamed of his Country For
Its Treatment of the Filipinos.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-—-In an in-
terview with a Post reporter Senator
Mason of Illinois said:
“On the floor of the senate I shall con-
tinue my opposition to the war upon the
Filipinos. I would sooner resign my seat
than treat a dog the way we are treating
those people. I am ashamed of my coun-
try. People make a great mistake,” he
continued, “when they say that I am
against expansion. I am not. But ex-
pansion by purchase 01' other honorable
means is one thing; expansion by force is
another. I do not believe that there was
any necessity for this war upon the Fili-.
pinos. I believe that if we had adopted
a resolution in congress assuring those
people, as we assured the Cubans, that
we had no selfish designs upon them, we
never would have met with any opposi-
tion in the Philippines. The fact is that
we have given the Filipinos eve'ry reason
to distrust us, and they are fighting for
their own liberty.
“Talk about hauling down our flag,”
continued Senator Mason. “Will not our
flag come down in Cuba? Certainly it
will if we are true to our promises. And
the day that it comes down will be the
brightest day in our history, because it
will show that we are a great, unselfish
nation, devoted to the eternal principles
of right and honesty. If the Cubans
want to be annexed later, that is another
question.‘ Why cannot we deal with the
Filipinos in the same way?” '
ALASKA SHAKEN.
Mainland and Islands Sink VJ’hile
Seabed Is Elevated.
SEATTLE, Wash, Sept. 21.—An earth-
quake of exceptional violence has shaken
the Alaskan coast from Lynn canal to
the Aleutian archipelago. The news of
the great disturbance came last evening
from passengers and officers of the
steamer City of Topeka, Sept. 14 from
Juneau, to which point the information
was carried by the westward steamer
Dora.
There were two distinct earthquakes,
one on Sunday, Sept. 3, and a second on
Sunday, Sept. 10. The latter created
the greatest havoc. In and about Yaku-
tat the earth rocked like a cradle. Sev-
eral islands, notably Kannk, one of the
greatest in extent and situated about 100
miles or more off Yakutat, is said to have
settled from 20 to 25 feet and to be al-
most entirely submerged at low tide. At
the terminus of a long, narrow strip 01
land extending into Yakutat bay the 111-
tiians and Russians maintained a burying
ground. This has disappeared, being
marked only by a cross, which rises
scarcely above the water’s surface at
high tide.
\Vhile the islands and mainland have
settled the seabed appears to have been
forced up a similar height, rendering por-
tions of the waters between Yakutat and
Juneau, formerly of safe depth, no longer
navigable.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.——The en-
rollment of recruits for the volunteer

For—1y eighth, 1‘ mt Thomas, has 177
men, and the. 1"o1'ty»ninth, at Jefferson
