CI III It'A MCA, Me*., Oct. 2S.—The re-
port that W. C. Green- 's Greene Gold-
Silver Company operating in this State
and Sonora on a most extensive scale
has gone into the hands of a receiver In
New York is false. The report is denied
by Mr. Greene and other good authority,
and have not only the Greene Gold-Sll-
\er Company but the Sierra Madre Land
and Lumber Company and the Rio
Grande, Sierra Madre & Pacific Rail-
road, all Greene concerns, are going
ahead the same as ever.
At the meeting of the Greene Gnld-
Silver Company s stockholders 'n New
York last week the Greene directors
were supported by a vote of 1.300.000 to
125 against and all of the old directors
but two were re-elected. At the meet-
ing some of the stockholders asked what
was behind the securities and Mr.
Greene explained that the company
owned 116 mines, all but four of which
were owned in fee simple. Considerable
develooment has been done on various
properties, uncovering good ore bodies.
The September output of the mines was
$25,000 in bullion and 127.000 in con-
centrates. October's production will
figure about the same. Regarding the
passing of the recent dividend on the
preferred stock. Mr. Greene states that
the company is earning the money but
it was considered better judgment to di-
vert the funds into the property at the
present time.

JAPAN HAS NO
DESIRE FOR THE
PHILIPPINES
That Much Developed by Secretary
Taft's Visit—Told They Must
Keep Hands Off.
CHINA WANTS AMERICANS
TO CONTROL THE ISLANDS
Special Telegram to The Express.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.—At his three
important stops in the Orient, Secre-
tary Taft's beating and utterances have
produced an excellent effect. That much
was apparent in all the dispatches.
Friendly confidence in America's Inter-
national policy has been strengthened by
the outspoken fashion in which the Sec-
retary lias delivered the single purpose
of his government's diplomacy—to pro-
tect the interest rightfully American,
without hidden designs of aggression and
to co-operate in all the upbuilding of
other nations, without desire to engage
in complicated entanglement:.
With something like sternness, he has
proclaimed at Tokio, Shanghai and Ma-
nila that the United States will keep tho
Philippines until Its work there is end-
ed. He described this duty under the
two heads of the altruistic process of
developing a people and the political pro-
cess of creating a stable and responsible
government. L'ntil that day comes, was
his warning, they who meddle with
Philippine affairs must deal witli the
United States.
Japan Is Willing.
Japan, the only country likely to med-
dle, has given many evidences of its
willingness to see the United States in
control of the Philippines. "We are not
yet a rich people," the Japanese states-
men have said. "For many years the
Philippines will be a heavy buden of ex-
pense to the nation which undertakes
control. Formosa gives us island trou-
bles enough, when added to the neces-
sities «»f our policy in Korea and Man-
churia."
That they are sincere seems probable
from their publication of a report l'rcni
the Japanese consul general at Manila.
He praises the American system of gov-
ernment in the archipelago, especially
the military system applied to the Moros,
and advances the Judgment that the Uni-
ted States will not sell or give over the
islands, because the natural wealth will
many times repay the cost and troubh
of developing them.
The Chinese are hearty in their wish
that the Philippines, so near to their
forts, and so advantageous commercial-
ly and strategically, remain in their hands
of the only power in whose policy toward
China they have confidence.
Secretary Taft has said the words
which Japan and China wished to hear.
If he could not say In Manila what the
Filipino leaders, ambitious to seiz«* the
government for themselves, most wished
to hear, he has' put in the most con-
ciliatory way the fact that it will be
useless to debate Independence until the
Filipinos understand the meaning of hon-
est and responsible administration.
To use the compehenslve Americanism,
he has cleared the atmosphere in the
Orient.
Rich Compensation in Sight.
Japanese and Chinese publicists are
supported by all authorities in the belief
that the Taft idea in the Philippines
will, consistently and steadily applied,
bring a rich recompense. They all under-
stand that there is no undeveloped re-
gion left in the world to compare with
this group in natural resources.
For instance, it is estimated that the
forest lands alone are worth, as they
stand, more than two billions. With the
rudest methods, the people have produced
exportable quantities of hemp, sugar and
tobacco, tho former used throughout the
world. The astonishing fertility of the
soil will grow in enormous quantities
every kind of tropical plant, with many
of those usually classed as belonging to
the temperate zone. Of the 8,000,000 per-
sons. all are Christianized with the ex-
ception of 650,000. For purposes of de-
velopment, that means, in comparison
with India and Africa, that the work was
more than half done by the Spaniards,
bad as was their government. At least
half of these Christians are fairly in-
dustrious and thrifty.
All they need is to be taught the use
of better implements, more healthful
habits of living and the more general
application of business system. They can
absorb this teaching. The short Amer-
ican occupation has proved the capacity,
even among the Moros. Mow rapidly, is
another question.
If all Americans were like Taft, it
would be very rapidly. The habits of
exertion would never, it may be admit-
ted. be American, but les.s-.of steady ap-
plication and thrift would find, to some
extent, a compensation in the produc-
tivity of the earth.
What the Tropics Can Do.
Java supports 40,000,000 persons, and has
a foreign tade of $230,000,000. It does not
compare with tho Philippines in area of
productive land. Japan and Australia
are hardly on an equality of natural rich-
ness. If Hour Kong can do a trade of
$250,000,000, and Singapore $180,000,000, it is
easily possible that Manila, In fifty years,
can have a showing of $300,000,000. It may
not grow so fast; probably will not. But
even a swifter rate of Increase is prac-
ticable if we can assume enough facility
among the people In acquiring the art
of well-applied industry.
The firm Taft insistence on an uncom-
promising battle against obstructionists
and reactionaries, anti-Imperialists in the
United States and office hunters on the
islands, will be the policy which will
hasten the Philippine destiny of premier-
ship in the Pacific.

MOTHER HATES OWN CHILD.
Peculiar Case of Aversion Disclosed
in Long Island Court.
NEW YORK. Oct. 28.—1The case of
Mrs. Annie Mohr of Corona, L. I.,
charged with compelling her 7-year-old
daughter to sleep in the basement with a
mongrel house dog and otherwise Ill-
treating the child, Is attracting attention.
The Mohr family Is in comfortable cir-
cumstances and there are two other chil-
dren, both of whom are well kept and
well clothed. Martha, the abused child, is
the second child of the three in the fam-
ily. Both the elder and younger sisters,
who were in court, looked happy and
smiling.
Peter Mohr, the father, in testifying,
said his wife took a strange and unac-
countable dislike to Martha, and all ef-
forts to overcome it were unavailing.
They finally gave the child out for adop-
tion, but its foster father soon died and
Mrs. Mohr was compelled to take Martha
back home again. No amount of persua-
sion could Induce Mrs. Mohr to accept
the little one as her own, and since then
the child has simply lived like an out-
cast. When she appeared in court her
body was covered with bruises, the
marks of repeated beatings, while she
cowered in fear every time an unexpected
move was made. In noticeable contrast
to her two sisters, Martha's clothing was
coarse and ragged. %
The case, is still pending in court, hut
meantime a children's society is caring
for Martha.
