111 [hag-.10 With the l’ilpino Government
~ Spanish Prisoners 'Leaving— Friars
i’ill Not be Relesed. .
Manila. Jan. 18.--Dr. Kruger, the
German consul here, emphatically de-
izic—d in an interview here yesterday
that tl‘lE re was or had been any collu-
sion either officially or personally 011
; the pert of himself or on the part of
1 any of the resident Gfliermans with the-
Fllfpino government.
He said that the German govern—
ment 01d1r1d the consul at 110110 not to
accept the charge of the protection of
Spanish int'rcsts, as General Rios had
requested him to do so upon his with-
drawal from 110110, for fear of com—
plications 111th the American govern—
ment. '
’Ihrce hundred Spanish prisoners
have left here for Spain on board the
steamship Iiilontserr-at, leaving seven-
ty-fivc hundred more to be repatriat-
ed.
The Filipino government at Malolos
announces that it is preparing to re-
lease the Spanish civilian prisoners in
the hands of the insurgents, but not the
rims.
The American Filipino commission
has not yet completed its work.
In the meantime the situation has
somewhat improved. An insurgent
newspaper announces that five thous-
and Filipino troops, which had re-en-
forced those around Manila a fortnight
ago, have been withdrawn into the in-
terior.
The paper also comments favorably
upon Senator Foraker‘s recent speech
in the United States Senate.
WHITE DEFENDS THE GE'RMANS.
Our Ambassador Denies that. They Are
Inciting Filipinos to Rebellion.
Berlin, Jan. 18.--The'United States
ambassador here, Mr. Andrew D. White
said to the correspondent of the Asso-
ciated Press:
“As a conclusive answer to the as—
sertion that the Germans wish to stir
the Filipinos against the United States
one fact, out of many which may be
mentioned, seems to be conclusive to
the contrary. It is that from the be-
ginning the German merchants in the
Philippine islands have been the stron-
gest advocates of American rule.
When the war with Spain was pend—
ing the head of one of the leading Ger-
man houses at Manila came' to Berlin,
saw me, and urged the importance of
our assuming sovereignty there and
taking complete control. He spoke to
the same purpose here, at the foreign
office and then’Went to Farms and saw
various members of the peace com-
mission and urged them most earnest-
ly to the same eect. He insisted that
the interests of the German merchants
there demanded that our sovereignty
Over the islands be maintained and he
has since furnished uswith a docu- .
merit of great length on the subject,
embodying statistical considerations of
various sorts, 11 herefore he must havi:
had the collaboration cf many of his
fellow merchants there.
“Altogether I regard this as a. most
significant fact against all the loose.
wild charges that the Germans are
seeking to undermine American au-
thority in the islands. If that were so
they would simply wreck their own in—
terests, and this they know better than
anybody else.’
The Naval Personnel Bill.
W’ashington, D. 0., Jan. 18.--In tho.
House yesterday the consideration of
tho naval personnel bill being resumed.
Mr. Bailey, Democrat of Texas, moved
to strike out from section seven the
fof'owmg proviso: '
"And provided further that nothing
contained in this section she 11 be con-
strucd to rrevent the retirement of
ofiicers “1th the rank and pay of com—
modore.”
The rank of commodore, he said, was
abolished‘in the active list by the bill;
why should it be continued in the re—
tired list?
He reiterated his opposition to elim-
inating the time honored rank of com-
modoic in the active list.
Mr. Foss, Republican of Illinois, cal-
led attention to the tact that commo-
dore was a courtesy rank and not an
actual rank before the civil war.
Perry, Decatur and Barron were cap-
tains, but by courtesy called commo-
dores.
The Panama Canal.
W'ashington, D. 0., Jan. 18.--The new
Panama Canal Company was given a
hearing yesterday before the House
committee on commerce, in reference to
its project for an interoceanic canal.
THhe hearing was in accordance with
a. recent determination of the commit-
tee to hear all persons concerned in an
isthmian canal, including the Panama
as well as the Nicaraguan project.
The Panama delegation included
General Henry L. Abbott, United States
Corps of Engineers, retired; Louis
Choron, chief engineer of the company;
X. Bayard, commercial representa-
tive, and Messrs. Cromwell, Curtis,
and Brown, as well as a. number of
technical experts of the company.
Professor Haunt of the Nicaragua
canal commission also was present.
, The Joint High Commission.
Montreal, Jan. 18.--Mr. Tarte, Do-
minion minister of public works, in a
letter to La Patrie from Washington,
commenting upon the apparent desire
of some persons that the negotiations
of the joint high commission should
fai,l says.
“I have reason to believe that things
are in a good position. It is of the
highest importance for the empire and
for Canada that all the causes of irri—
tation between ourselves and the Uni-
tcd States should disappear.”
The minister says that he has reason
to hope that a settlement will be
reached upon the fisheries and Bering
sea questions. _
As to reciprocity, he says that the
commissioners have a difficult task,
there being so many public and private

Gov. VODHH HEES TAKES THE HELM
Talks J’lalnly for Economy and Reform
3.. .llis inaugural Addvess. I
Trenton. N. J., Jan. 18.—-Not f0!-
yer.’rs has a governor of New Jersey
becu inaugurated with so little- pomp
and ceremony as was Governor Foster
M. Yocrhces yesterday. There was no
parade of political organizations and
few visitors outside the politicians who
usually attend the gathering of the
legislature. The capitol Was resplen-
dent in the national colors, palms and
greens of "every description.
The legislature met at the usual hour
in the state house and at 11 o’clock,
adjouincd to the stage of the Taylor
Open House, where both bodies were
011111111260..-
Accompanied by the speaker of tho.
house, and Acting Governor Watkins,
Governor-elect Voorhees was driven to
the opera house, where, after prayer
by Rex. Francis L. Patton of Piince-
ton Unix crsity, the oath was adminis-
tercd by Chief Justice William J. Ma-
gie.
As the Seventh regiment gun detach—
ment began firing the governor’s sa-
lute, Actlng Governor Watkins deliv-
ered the great sea 10f state of Governor
Voorhecs.
Speaker Watkins next introduced the
governor to President Reed of the Sen-
ate, who, in turn, presented the gov.-
ernor to the members of the Senate and
House.
At the conclusion of this ceremony
Govci nor Vomhees deliver ed his inaug-
ural address.
in tho .c course of his address Gover-
nor Voorhees said:
“I believe that they best serve a par-
ty who, in the conduct of their office,
pay heed to the interests of the great—
est number. This duty is especially
imposed upon the executive by the
oath of oflicc which he takes.
“In his acts he is not to seek parti—
san advantages only. He is to promote
the peace and prosperity of the state
and maintain its lawful rights. He is.
to see that its laws, civil and criminal,
are enforced alike for all and against
all.
“He is to secure equal protection to
rich and poor. Violators of the-law
are to be punished without distinction.
He must demand honesty and economy
and oblige public servants to render a
faithful and efficient service.
“I shall to the best of my ability act
in accordance with these views.”
Another thing suggested by the
governor was the disposal of public
funds so as to prevent a. surplus,iwitl1
a, view to relieving local taxation. This
should be a flexible, not a fixed am-
ount, according to the state of the
tieasui'y.
GOVERNOR VOORIIEES.
He advocated the completion of the
Rahw? y Reformatory buildings. Of
the 11' or Covc-inor Voorhees said:
“Ilenccforth our place is prominent
in the councils of the nations. New
conditions confront us; new problems
demand solution; but we meet them
courageously. A special significance is
to be found in these momentous and
swiftly passing events.
“Our national spirit has been quick-
cried, and our people united in senti-
ment. Old prejudices have disappear-
ed and old wounds have been healed.
No section. no class has yielded to
another in display of loyalty and de-
votion.
New erscy has cause for special pride
in the zeal and patriotism shown by
its citizens. Quick, and in numbers
greater than allotted, was their re-
sponse to the call for soldiers, and bit--
ter was the disappointment of those
whose eager proffer of service was re—
fused. Vththcr on land or on sea.
New Jersey soldiers and sailors so de-
that honor and
credit came to the state.”
France Not. Hostile.
London, an. i.8.--The French ambas-
sador, M. Paul Cambon, replymg to an
address of the International Arbitra-
tion Association at the embassy here
yesterday, said no feeling of hostility
toward the British existed in France.
The press on both sides, he added, had
exaggerated the little friction over the
Fashoda incident, which was only tem-
porary. ‘
He assured the people of Great Bri-
tain that neither the French nation nor
the government of Erance desired war,
and, speaking from experience,
Cambon could say that no European
nation desired war. On the contrary,
there was an earnest wish for peace,
the
czar’s aims,- but .he feared that their
practical realization would be a long
time coming.
To Protect Veteran's Rights.
Albany, N. Y.. Jan. 18.-—The attention
of the state civil service commission
will be called to the decision of the
court of appeals in the Jacobus and
the Floyd cases by Governor Roosevelt
and it is expected that the commission
will take steps toward recommending
legislation that will secure the protec-
tion of the veterans intended by the
law, but lost in the decisions of the
court upon the laws.
Named by the President
Washington. D. 0.. Jan. 18.-—Among
the nominations
yesterday by the president were the
following:
To be surveyors of customs--Wllliam
Barnes, Jr., port of Albany, N. Y.;
John A. Bassarear, port of Greenport,
L. I.
A number of naval officers were also
advanced for eminent and conspicuous
