General Wheeler Will Not Re
turn to Congress- but Has
Decided to Remain , in the
Philippines Forwards a Let
ter to the President.
Manila, Nov. 20. Gen. Wheeler has
decided not to return to Congress. He
is writing a letter to President Mo
Kinley with a request that it be for
warded to the House of Representa
tives. In the course of an interview
with a correspondent of the Asso
ciated Press, he said :
"Congress, if it occupies the first day
of the session in passing a resolution
declaring in unmistakable terms that
the sovereignty, cf the United States
is to be maintained in the Philippines,
thus dispelling Aguinaldo'a delusion
that the anti-imperialists can assist
him, will be performing a sacred duty.
Such a resolution would save the lives
of many American soldiers and of
thousands of deluded Filipinos ; would
pvert famine, suffering and desolation
from these islands, and would render
unnecessary the expenditure of hun
dreds of millions of dollars.11
The people of Cotta Bato, on the
southwestern coast of the island of
Mindanao, desire the establishment of
American government there, and have
addressed a petition to General Otis,
asking him to send troops.
In relating bow they bad appealed
to the Dato to protect them against
the attempts cf Aguinaldo'a officials to
collect excessive taxes, they say in the
petition that the Dato, "having com
passion for our sufferings and in the
interests of peace" publicly heheaded
half a dozen of these officials.

AN EARLY CONVENTION.
Democrats Will Probably Hold
Theirs in April or May.
Chicago, Nov. 20.-The Democratic
National Executive Committee, with
Chairman J. K. Jones in the chair,
spent most of to-day at the Sherman
House discussing matters pertaining to
organization, ways and means and the
administrative affairs of the organiza
tion. The committee will meet to
morrow, and it is expected will get
through with the business on hand be
fore night. Nothing was said about a
meeting of the National committee,
but it is the opinion of most of the
executive committeemen that the full
committee will be called to meet in
Washington February 22nd, and that
the! next Democratic convention will
be held in the latter part of May or
the first part' of June... Senator Jones
would say nothing about calling the
meeting.
r The committeemen were extremely
uncommunicative as to what was done
at the meeting. Secretary Charles A.
Walsh said the committee had trans
acted no business of importance, and
had only considered administrative affairs.-
1 After the meeting had adjourned,
however, some of the committeemen
continued the discussion of the proba
able situation next year. They dis
closed the fact that considerable part
of the committee's time had been de
voted to discussing the probable effect
of high prices on the campaign of 1900.
It is the purpose of some of the com
mitteemen to organize a bureau of in
formation and education, whose duty
it shall be to gather accurate informa
tion relating to trusts, cost of manu
facturing, selling price to jobbers and
middlemen, selling prices to consum
ers, wages paid and cost of raw mate
rial;
They believe they will be able to
show that the present high prices are
the result of trusts and combinations,
and that working men nave been given
but a small proportion of the increase
in selling values. The idea has assum
ed such tangible form that it is pre
dicted W. H. (Coin) Harvey will be
placed at the head of the bureau. None
of tke committeemen would admit this
matter had beeadiscussed. It is pro
posed to rmploy a large staff of men to
gather information which can be used
in auti-trust campaign.
There did not seem to be any dispo
sition to shelve free silver as an issue.
All the committeemen said free coin
age was in the platform to stay, but
none of. them aaid. it would be the
dominant issue. '.
Congressman William "Sulzer, of
New York, appeared before the com
mittee. He said trusts would be the
issue in the east. Jas. F. Minturn, of
New Jersey, -told the committee pra
tically the same thing. - f. T .
Senator Pettigrew.ot South Dakota;
and Charles A.'Towne, of Dnlnth.both
of them silver Republicans, told the
committee that free silver was still a
live issue in their States.
The members of the executive com
mittee in attendance today were :
Senator J. K. Jones j of Arkansas, chair
man ; Charles Walsh, secretary ; J.'O.
Johnston, Kansas ; H. D. Clayton, Ala
bama ; Thomas Gahan, Illinois ; J. G.
Shanklin, Indiana ; D. O. Campau,
Michigan ;"W. H. Thompson, Nebras
ka ; T. D. O'Brien. Minnesota, and Nor
man . Mack, of Buffalo, who held the
proxy of George Fred Williams, of Mas
sachusetts. . Vice-Chairman W. J.
Stone, of Missouri, was the conspicu
ous absentee. He sent a telegram
which said he was sick and would not
be able to come to Chicago. j
