That the Filipino people are in eara

Senate Preaidant Manuel L. Quezon.
Bum. Mr. Quezon and the Hon. Ser
glo Osineua, Speaker of the Philippine
House of Representatives and Vice
President of the Council of State, are
the leaders of the Naclouallsta parly,
which has been in power since 1907.
While Speaker Ostnena is not so well
known in the United States as Quezon,
he Is considered one of the ablest men
In the Islands. Senate Presldeut Que¬
zon recently referred to Osineua us
“the greatest Filipino since Hlaal.”
The personal relations between Os¬
mose and Quezon are probably without
a parallel In modern politics. They
have been the leading political figurea
tu the Islands for 12 years, yet thert
has never been tbe slightest indication
of rivalry between them. Throughout
their college life as well as tliolr long
political service each lias refused to be
a candidate for any position tliut the
other aspired to.
During the years Quezon was the
Philippine delegate In the Amertc.-.n
Congress he won the esteem and con
fldenee of both tlie Republican and
Democratic sides of the chamber
Whenever he spoke lie was assured of
a good attendance. Due of the oftlylid
short hand reporters once declared
Quezon used the purest English of any
member of the House.
Osinenn, as president of the Nacton
allots party, Is fhe leader of the na¬
tional movement for Independence.
Osmeun Is the premier ‘de facto’ of
Um Philippines," said a leading FUlpl

VILLA THREATENS
NEW MEXIC REGIME
WITH REVOLUTION
__ .
Man Who Has Defied Every Govern
ment Since Fall Of Madero Not 1
Ready To Yield Yet l
Washington.—Francisco Villa, who
has defied every government in Mex¬
ico since the overthrow of Madero,
already has become an embarrass¬
ment to officials of the new de facto
forces.
A report to the atate department
that Villa had captured and was hold
ing for fifty thousand dollars ransom
Georgia Miller, British, superintendent
of the Alvarado Mining and Milling
company, at Purral. Chihuahua, follow¬
ing a report that General Calles had
failed to obtain from the outlaw lead¬
ed an unconditional promise of coop¬
eration, is somewhat disconcerting.
A. J. McQuarters of New " irk. pres¬
ident of the mining company, sought
the advice of government officials re¬
garding payment of tbe ransom. The
s tate department, It Is understood.
has taken no action, although it was
regarded probable that representations
would be made, not to the authbri*
ties at Mexico City, but to the de
tacto leaders in Chihuahua.
Representatives here of the revolu
tionary government said they doubt
ed the report that a ransom had been
asked for Miller's release and called
attention to the repeated seizure by
Villa of Americans since the beginning
of the year and their subsequent re¬
lease. His action was explained by
statements attributed to Villa that he
was following the course most likely
to provide him the most up-to-date
news and a means of transmitting his
own Ideas to some one on the out
side.
The dispatch of Rafael Zubaran to
Chihuahua was regarded here as a
move toward further effbrt to bring
Villa into the revolutionary movement.
American Aviator Missing In Poland
Warsaw, Poland.—Lieut. Hannon C.
Rorison of Wilmington. N. C.. a pilot
in the Kosciusgo aerial squadron, has
been missing for several days, when
ie began a flight undertaken to obtain
report concerning tlie Bolshevik
ines on the southern front in tlie
Ukraine. Since the start on his mis¬
sion, Rorison has not been reported,
and the Polish military authorities are
of the opinion that he either was shot
down by the enemy or forced to land
inside the Bolshevik lines.
Price Cutting Affects Food Market
New ' T ork.—Influenced by the na¬
tion-wide price-cutting agitation that
is steadily gaining ground, the prfnci
>al commodity markets of the coun
i-y continued to “mark down” quoted
alues. Cotton, sugar and corn op
ions broke violently here and in Chi
ago, and cereals and provisions, in
luding pork, also suffered sharp re
etious. Significance was attached to
he drop in the pork prices as mark
ng tbe first pronounced break in
ligh-priced foodstuffs.
White And Negroes In Big Battle

'd in a clash between whites and ne
