General Otis discussed the situation in
the Philippines at considerable length
and took the hopeful view that with the
additional troops to be furnished the
war would be terminated before the
next rainy season sets in.
"With 50,000 troops all told say 30.

Otis can suppress the revolt before

ALGER MAKES A
VERY BAD MOVE
Say He Will Give Up the Kjcc Rather
Than Allow His Loyalty to Be
Questioned.
Washington, July 1. Alger and hi
friends are just awakening to the fact
that he made a very bad move in openly
allying himself with Pingree. They see
that the step will weaken Alger in Michi
gan, for they know that the president i
stronger in Michigan than either Mc
Millan or Alger, and that any one who
opposes McKinley will surely iall from
favor. More than that, they now see.
that if Alger remains in the cabinet,
where he is not wanted, he will gain dis
repute at home and be the loser in the
end.

port ant work of sending reinforcements
is to ho considered secondary to the
necessity of returning the volunteers.
The president feels that they have been
kept too lonjj already, and is anxious to
see the last man homeward bound.
To facilitate the work, the adminis
tration has ordered transports to clear
from Sun Francisco as soon as they can
be made ready for sea, whether there
are recruits ready or not. They will
not take reinforcements when they' Bail,
but after arrival will hasten back for
volunteers without regard to the new
recruits for Otis. The president has
also authorized the purchase of two new
transports which will be put into the
regular service as soon as they cin be
equipped.
After the volunteers are retired, the
transports w ill carry back full loads of
tho regulars, and when they are huded,
w ill return for the new volunteers.

risk of a repetition of the troubles of

Washington, July 1. Senator Car
ter, of Montana, called upon the presi
dent today to present him with formal
invitations to vmt Great Falls, Helena,
Butte and Missoula when he goes West
onhistiip. The president said he hna
not auamioncti Ms intention to make a
Western trip, if conditions permit, but
stated ho would not be able to attempt
the trip before the middle of August. He
could not fix a date and could not say
positively that he would co. He could
only say that he desired to go. The
president added that he would like to
puss through Montana after the Montana
regiment from tho Philippines had come
home. This is taken to indicate that the
president will start on his Western trip
late in the summer, and will try to go to
a number of Western states which fur
nished volunteer troops in tho Philip
pines. Iu this way he would be able to
shake hands witli the returned soldiers.

"At present there is no proper name

Columbia nnd America apply to the

and might justly resent the pretensions

inhabitants of the United States of

an awkward expression. It is plural

administration and are asserting that tho
secretary's relations with tiie president
are very cordial. This is generally dis

late have been to the contrary. The
Algerites are quite sore on Burrows, for
his recent interview on the Alger-Pingree
alliance, and are making assertions that
McMillan men are acting maliciously
toward Alger to givo him a bad name at
home. But the climax is capped when.
Alger's friends say, "rather thun allow
ills loyalty to the president to be ques-
I tioned, he would give up the senatorial
race."
Alger himself s.ys nothing publicly,
but he is now trying to pose as a martyr
