INCREASE THE ARMY.
Administration Yields to Public
Sentiment, but Three Months
Too Late.
Washington, June 29. The adminis
tration has jielded to public eentiment
and will increase the army. This will
be welcome news to the patriotic people
of the Unilud States who want to see
the honor of the American nation up
held in the Philippines, although it
comes at least three months too late.
The reluctance with which the adminis
tration has taken hold of the matter is a
surprise to public men everywhere
Even now McKinley's advisers, who
have been opposed to raising more
troops, are claiming that the movement
does not necessarily man any larger
force, but is merely preparatory to en
listment should General Otis desire more
troops.
ai emu's POSITION.
The members of the cabinet will give
Alper'the cold shoulder and make him
understand that he is no longer wanted
in the administration. McKinley may
do the same, but Alger will bank on his
knowledge of McKinley's character, be
lieving that if he does not resign McKin
ley will not ask him to. Alger does not
see that abuse of the administration by
his "wicked partner" is a cause to make
him leave the administration.
A very sarcastic editorial in the New
York Tribune today says that it is pre
sumed that Alger shares the views of
his ' partner,!' and is opposed to expan
sion, to the prosecution. t tue war in
the Philippines and also to the political
methods of Mark Hanna, After what
McKinley has stood from the war de
partment, including the criticisms of Al
ger Hnd the administration, it is not be
lieved t hut he will now remove Alger,
no matter if his removal is demanded by
all the other members of the cabinet.
