New York, Feb. 2S-Every Indication

is a possibility that 1t may To oven later
before the findings of the court are placed

ploslon on tho Maine IS. further away.
In this connection the results of Ensign

belief is gaining ground that had IL found
that the Maine disaster was due 10 an

he Required to settle Matters in
the Philippines.

New York, Nov. S.--A dispatch to the
Herald from Washington says.
Major Simpson, OF General Merritt's
staff, has just returned from Manila, and
though personally he does lot seem TO
fear serious trouble with the force Of
Agunaldo, he says there is distinct senti-
ment among the United States troops
that there may be trouble and more
troops may be needed.
Aguinaldo's force is reckoned at about
5000 and Major Simpson freely admits
that the rebels are in control OF the island
OF Luzon. The recent attack on llo Ito by
the forces OF Aguinaldo recalled to him
that Agunaldo had some transports and
about 500 of the Lu2on troops had been
carried to the island of Panay.
On the island of Mindanao the situation
il not understood as the inhabitants are
mostly Mohammedans Little or no in
vestigation OF the situation there has
been made by our army. Back in the
hills OF Luzon many tribes are almost
unciyilized and have never felt the force
of either the insurgents or spaniards,
To complicate the situation the priests
are now intriguing to make the rebels
disconnected with Aguinaldo and to set
up another insurgent chief. Should all
the islands pass into the hands OF the
United States, the situation might be one
OF surprises.
The fact that Aguinaldo's troops at
tackled Ilo llo, according to Major Simp-
son, shows that Aguinaldo has not ac-
guessed in the decision involved in the
fall OF Manila.

SELECTING A CAMP SITE.
Eight Miles From Havana Two
Camps VIII lie Pitched.

Washington, Nov. S.-Colonel Hcckcr,
with Colonel Lee OF the board which was
sent to Cuba to select camp site for the
American army of occupation, has reach
ed Washington and has had several con
fercnccs with the president and Secretary
Alger. The secretary has approved the
locations selected by the Hecker board
for the principal garrison, which Will be
i'll the neighborhood of Havana. The
place selected lies about Aight miles south
OF Havana, in the neighborhood OF the
town of Marianne. Two camps will be
pitched at this point, one o. either side
OF the splendid aqueduct which supplies
Havana with water. This aqucduct will
be tapped and the water drawn by steam
pumps from it to supply the camps,
