September li. noon-The correspondent here of The Associa- tcd Press has obtained a copy of the reply adopted by the Filipino Congress to the American offer of an autono- mous government. The homer of the reply was Ambrosio ltiausn-es. who was odcred a position in the Supreme Court. but who failsd to iuvlrrar and was supposed to be detained by the in- surrectionlsts. The document repeats the arguments contained in the recent appeal to the powers for l'uognition and the Filipino claim. tht.1 the Amer- icans were the aggresmrs ll. the war and concludes: “Notwithstanding the flu-turning. we could have accepted your sovereignty and autonomy if we llad not seen by the behaviour of the Amerlrans in the beginning that they were strongly op- posed to us through race pligdice and the high handed methods dealing with as made us fear for it :2 future In your hands.

September lf--'l'he Murnv ing itccord publishes a signed state- ment from Dr. Nehemiah Nickerson. whose views on the right of man to dic have caused such a sensation. Dr. Nickerson says in substance that there is nothing in the published in- terview with him to show that. the administration of chloroform to pa- tients. dying of incurable disease. tends to lessen the last few hours of life. He says: “fly removing the agony from pain in cancer or from the struggle for breath in certain cases of heart di- sease onconsnmptlcn i should judge it might prolong the period. But this is a point which cannot be determined to a certainty. “My remarks in Saturday's Morning Retard were intended to show what 1 considered the duty of the physician during the last few hours of terrible suffering from incurable disease. when wecanutthepsrtofaministering angel III no more merciful manner than by renderin the sufferer unconscious during the ow hours that remain.

Will not Take the Lead in the latter of Paris Exposition Remit. Berlin. September 14~The German government organs have been quick to issue a warning against the proposal to boycott the Paris exhibition. "Germany has no occasion to take the lead in this matter," says the Col- ogne.Gasette. "She ought to leave this to other states which. perhaps. would not consider it undesirable that Germdhy of all powers should adopt a hostile attitude towards France in this matter." Gcheimrath l.ewald, a member of the German exhibition commission says: “What has the exhibition to do gith politics? Its sole object is mmmer- clal. To withdraw is no such easy matter. Every industrial branch will be represented as a group. to which the Individual manufacturer contributes. The industrial branches could. there: fore. only withdraw as a whole. Therm is not the. slightest symptom of any in- clination to adopt that course. The greatest efforts are putting forth in all quarters to make the best possible show.
