PROBE FOR ISLANDS
Barbarity and Crtelly in P ilip=
pines Will Be investigated.
IS DECISION OF THE PRESIDENT
Matter of Sending Investigating Com
mission to Islands is Discussed
at Cabinet Meeting—Root
Asks for Evidence,
A Washington special says: It is
that President Roosevelt
has decided to, send a commission to
investigate the conditions in the Phil
ippine islands.
The recent testimony, before the
senate committee relative to the “wa
ter cure" and other methods alleged to
have been employed by officers of the
army, and the comment of the country
upon these disclosures-, have prompted
the movement , for an investigation.
Men close to the president have point
fed out that, in view of the general
idea that there has been a suppression
of facts, there was great, danger of fice
democrat's being able to make use of
the necessity for investigation as a
campaign issue in the congressional
elections.
There was some discussion Of this
subject at the cabinet mofetiiig Tufts
day, but white ftp definite action was
taken, die understanding at the capitol
among persons particularly close to
the administration is that some stop*
toward an investigation Will be taken
at an early dale.
This tip is accompanied by the sug
gestion that, the method, calculated to
conic nearer satisfying the country as
to the fairness of the investigation
will be the appointment of a non-partl
san commission of civilians of the
same high character as comprised the
war investigation commission, which
passed upon the charges glowing Out
of the conduct of the wnr in Cuba.
Since, the revelations of the Oar
denor report, it is a fact that the demo
cratlc managers have believed one of
their strongest cards for the campaign
thl3 ycar "'““V 1 B e a demand for a
srss’SaSirsSirs
medium of a democratic hon*o,
Root Asks for Evidence.
As a result of the consideration, by
the cabinet of the charges of cruel
tieitment of Filipinos by United
States soldiers, Secretary Root has
made public the following correspond
ence:
“War Department, Washington,
April 15, 1902.—My Dear Senator: I
beg to acknowledge receipt of your
copy of the testimony of Sergeant S.
Riley and- Private William Lewis
Smith, late of the Twenty-sixth infan
try, taken before your committee yes
terday, I inclose a copy of a dispatch
which has been sent today to ftajor
General Chaffee, commanding the di
vision of the Philippines. Directions
have been given to the judge
general of the army to take proper
steps in accordance with the dispatch.
“Tlie war department will lie glad to
receive the earliest practicable infor
mation of any further evidence which
may be elicited by the committee tend
ing to fix responsibility upon any
in the military service of the United
States for any violation of any laws of
war or of the regulations or orders
governing the operations of the army
of the United States in the field.
“Very respectfully,
“ELIHU ROOT,
“Secretary of War.
