NIZE VESSEL
When the Identity of the Olympia Was
Made Out, Passengers on the
Steamer Monmouth Cheered Vo
ciferously Admiral Dewey, Who
Was on Deck, Alone Acknowledged
the Cheers.
Nr.w Youk, Sept. 2G. Much to the
Biiniriao of every one in Hit)) city the
Olympia, with Admiral Dewey oh board,
arrived off Sand Hook lightship at 5:55
lllie morning. The Olympia sailed from
Gibraltar September 10i There was a
heavy ami on tlio sea,' nnd at first the
nmrino ohRurvers were inclined to think
the vbshoI sighted might bo the Chicago,
Kear-Admiral Howison's flagship, hardly
believing that Dewey would arrive two
daya ahead of time. The doubt wbb eoon
cleared away, tiowever, and as pausing
vessels recognized the flagship from Ma
nila hay, there was n continuous blowing
whistles in salute.
One ot the first large vessels to sight
the Olympia was the passenger steamer
Handy Hook, of the Sandy Hook line,
which left Atlantic Highlands shortly af
ter 7 o'clock, for her New York dock.
The flagship came up to the lower bay
and anchored inside Sandy Hook. As
soon us the anchor was dropped, an or
derly hub Hunt ashore with dispatches
from the admiral and other officers, lie
said that the ship had iiad a pleasant
trip across the Atlantic, and all on board
were glad to bo home again. The Olym
piad crew were put to work imme
diatolj clearing ship. Many email ves
sels begun Bailing around tho lliigehip
and the number wuu augmented con
stantly. Tim admiral's early arrival was a mat
ter of great concern to the city authori
ties, who aro arrunging for New York's
official welcome. The secretary of the
reception committeo went to the City
Hill early, and at once issued a call for
a meeting of the committee. Secretary
Foster said that he could not forecast the
committee's action, but thought it prob
able that it would go down to' the Oly
tapia Una afternoon and meet the ad
miral. ,
Mayor Van Wick hurried to his ofhV,
where he found the following telegram :
"Olympia arrived this morning. Will
go to Tompkinevllle tomorrow.
"GEO. DEWEY."
The mayor authorized calling together
of all the city's committees, and tele
grams were sent out calling on members
of the plan and scope committee, and va
rious other committees to meet as quick
ly bh possible at the City Hall.
Tin- Sandy Hook steamer Monmouth
passed the Olympia early this morning,
anil those on board of her were the first
to see Dewey. One of the Monmouth's
passengers suid: "We saw Admirol
Dewey quite plainly. He stood alone on
the quarter deck of the warahlp. Fitteen
feet behind him stood eight pf his officers
in uniform. The admiral alone of all
the men on board the ship acknowledged
the cheers of tho passengers and crew
of the Monmouth. He raised Ida hat,
continually bowing and smiling.
The ship looked in fineitrlra condition
after her long voyage, Imt the exterior
f her hull was seamed with a rusty
Btreak."

Narrow Escape from a Horrible Death
McMinnvim.k, Sept. 25. At theMiller
hop yard, near tliis city, Sunday last,
Mr. L. E. Walker, of this place, while
saving his wife from a horrible death,
was severely burned. Tiie lady was
preparing dinner over a camp fire, when
her clothes were caught by the blaze
and she was soon enveloped in flames.
Mr. Walker grabbed the burning dress
and tore it off his wife, nnd saved her
from injury. His hands and arms are
both burned to a solid blister.
There iB more Catarrh in tiiie section
of the ountry than nil othe diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven catarrh
tobe a. constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarruh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
oulv constitutional euro on the market.
It is taken internally in doses from ten
drops toa teasnoonful. It acts directly
on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure, bend tor

OTIS TO BE
RECALLED
Major General Brooke Is Soon to Leave
Cuba, and It Is Said That He Is
Slated to Command in the Philip
pine Islands.
New Youk, Sept. 20. A special to
the Times from Washington says:
Coincident with the near approach of
Admiral Dewev, the rumors about Gen
eral Otis' recall have been revived. It
is the general report that his recall has
actually been decided upon. There has
been a rumor lately that General Brooke
was to leave Cuba shortly, and as it is
now said that a major-general is to be
sent to the Philippines, there is some
disposition to regard that as General
Brooke's future berth.
The basis for all this gossip seems to
be the report that Admiral Dewey lias a
poor opinion of General Otis. This re
port has lately been revived and re
peated in a number of way. It is gen
erally believed that the admiral will
have much influence with the adminis
tration, and his views bn the Philippine
policy will be anxiously sought. A
strong Impression prevails that when he
gives his opinion it will not be favorable
to General Otis.
There is to be a conference at the
White Houee shortly after his return, at
which the president will meet the ad
miral and tho Pbilippiue commission,
and what is said at that conference may
resultin some alterations in the military
policy in the Philippines.

CITY
New Yokk, Sept. 20. A dispatch to
the Herald from Manila says : The two
Englishmen who assert that they were
ship'wrecked in a small open boat near
Bigaa, at the northern end of Ltizm,
bring a message from the insurgent gen
eral, Pnntela, that fourteen American
prisoners who are now held at Tarlac
will be released on Tuesday or Wednes
day. The delay in releasing the prison
ers, as promised several days ago, i9 due
to the fact that the Filipinos wish to
furnish the men with new clothing when
they set them free.
The Englishmen stato further that
Lieutenant J. C. Gilmore and the cap
tured boat's crew from the Yorktown are
still at Bigaa, but will be released later,
in accordance with the decision of the
Filipino congress, and the subsequent
decree of Aguinaldo providing for the
surrender of all American prisoners. The
admitted purpose of the Filipinos in thug
fieeing the Ameiicans is to impress
foreign powers.
The Englishmen eay that Lieutenant
Gilmore and his men are not being
treated well. They are only receiving
twenty cents a day each for rations.
The released Englishmen assert that
three Americans who were taken prison
era have accepted commissions in the
insurgent army.
The Filipino authorities sent word
that no trace can be found of Captain
Rockefeller, of the 19th infantry, who
disappeared in April, and was supposed
to have been captured.
The railroad biidges in insurgent terri
tory haye been washed out, and tho in
surgents are having difficulty in supply
the troops in tho immediate fiont of the
American line.
On the way to the American lines the
Englishmen were taken on a wide detour
away from the insurgent front, and were
thus uuabie to 6ee the insurgent forces,
which are reputed to be strong.
