TO SLEEP AT THE PALACE.

the Queen.

London, Aug. 29-Col. John Hay, the
retiring United States ambassador to
the court of ST. James, who has ac-
cepted the portfolio of secretary of
state at Washington, in succession to

missioners, went to Osborne, Isle of
Wight, Monday afternoon in order to
dine and sleep there and bid farewell
to Queen Victoria, who starts for

Mrs. Hay was also invited to Osborne,
but was unable to go, owing to the

ORDERS ToR scnLEY.
Detached from His Squadron and Or
dered to Puerto Rico.

Washington, Aug. 30. - An order
was issued at the navy department de-
taching Rear Admiral w. S. Schley
from command of the second squadron
of the North Atlantic fleet and order
ing him to Puerto REQ as member of
the evacuation commission, during
which time he is authorized to fly his
flag on the cruiser New Orleans, which
will remain in those waters until the
commission is ready to return to the
United States. Admiral Schley will be
accompanied to Puerto Rico by the
following members of his staff now at
tached to the cruiser Brooklyn at New
York; Lieut.. j. f. Sears, Lieut.. B. w.
Wells, Jr., and Ensign Edward Nc
Cauley, Jr. The order for Admiral
Schley to fly his flag on the New Or
leans is made in order to keep him CON
structively on sea duty while serving
on the evacuation commission, thus en-
titling him to the highest pay of his
rank, viz, $4,000 per annum. 1t was
for the same reason that the navy de-
partment decided 10 keep Admiral
Sampson in nominal command of the
North Atlantic fleet while he is in Ha-
vana as member of the Cuban evacua-
ton commission. His flag will be dis
played on the auxiliary cruiser Reso-
lutte, which will take the members of
the commission to Havana
Gen. Butler one of the members of
the Cuban commission, was at the war
department Monday in conference
with the authorities regarding the du-
ties of the commission. Col. j. w.
Clous, of the judge advocate general S
department, who will act as one of the
legal advisers of the commission, was
also at the state department Monday.
He had long conference with Act
ing Secretary Moore regarding the
legal aspects of the case. He arrived
here from Puerto Rico, where he was
serving on the staii of Gen. Miles. The
Cuban commission will sail from New
York next Saturday on tie cruiser

Washington, Aug. 29.-The instruc-

that The military commission will take
control of Cuba and Puerto Rico the
same as the military governor now
controls that portion of Cuba sur
rendered to the United States after
the Santiago campaign. The many
minor details relative to the evacua-

Baltimore, Nd, Aug. 29.-Receiver
Murray repeated even more emphatic
ally his statement of two weeks ago
that no changes are contemplated in
the traffic or operating departments
of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad after
the reorganization. The dispatch
from Cleveland, saying that Traffic
Manager Wight and General Freight
Agent Galleher were to be retired and
be succeeded by Freight Agent Brock
enbrough and Assistant General
Freight Agent Stevenson, was stamped
by him as being unqualitiedly false and
without the slightest foundation. He
said that the reorganization of the
Baltimore & Ohio as at present con-
stituted was eninently satisfactory
to the receivers and that the results
were of such character as to make
amy important changes unadyisable.

Washington, Aug. 2o.-The eNtraor-
dinary circular note directed by the
Russian foreign minister to the mem
bers of the diplomatic body at st.
Petersburg has attracted the earnest
attention OF the officials here. 1t is
supposed from the terms of the note
as published that a copy was directed
to Mr.. Hitchcock, the United States
ambassador at he Russian capital, but
SO far nothing has been heard by cable
from him to that effect. 1t is believed
here that the victory achieved by the
United States in the late war was
contributing factor in the prepara-
ton of the note. 1t is surmised shat
that victory made it clear at once to
the European statesmen that to main
tain the balance of power they would
be obliged to redouble their expendi-
lures on account of army and navy
else they might be outstripped by the
United States. The official mind here
looks upon the Russian project for
general disarmament as Utopian at
this time, and while any statement
as to the attitude of the United States
towards such conference as that
proposed is purely conjectural in adj
vance of the receipt of the invitati ton,
the impression prevails that our govl
ernment would not care to take any
active part in its deliberations.
Is Visionary.
London, Aug. a9.-Dr. Emil Reich,
the eminent hungarian historian and
British counsel in the Venezuelan
arbitration, in an interview ON the
subject of the czar's peace note, ex-
presses the belief that his majesty is
visionary. He says:
s"The ear is a dreamer. He is not IN,
robust health and has always to take great
care OF his body. This scheme for uni
Versal peace is one of his dreams 1t ia

nearly SO large as her rivals. <rsstt
Sweden and Norway and Italy would
like to disarm and might do so with i'm
punity; but for the rest of Europe it is
impossible. Europe must fight, lest the

peace commission. Up to this moment
It is not yet definitely and absolutely
known whether Justice White will ac-
cept the appointment rendered him.
and efforts are making by the
president to learn his intentions in
the matter. Mr.. Macarthur, the as
sistant secretary of the American
commission, is now in New York MAX
ing arrangements for the sailing of
tie commission on the 18th of Sep
temaoer, so that very little time
intervenes to make change in
the body in the event Justice White

that Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts,,

that would so result.

Washington, Aug. a9.-Up to this
moment no orders have been sent to
Gen. Merritt at Manila to leave his
post. 1T is said, however, that the
general, being in command of the
military force in the Philippines, is
at liberty to leave Manila and go
where he sees fit within his own dis
cretion. 1t IS suggested by some of
the officials here that the purpose of
his visit to this country at the pres
ent moment is to get married. 1t is
entirely possible, and in fact probable,
that being in the United States and
we'll acquainted with the situation in
the Philippines, Gen. Merritt may be
designated to proceed to Paris as
technical adviser to the peace commits
sion. This is presuming that the com
mission will continue in session for
several weeks at least, for otherwise
1T would not be possible for Gen. Mer-
rift to make the long trip from the
Philippines TO San Francisco, thence
to New York by rail and then by boat
to Paris. 1t is regarded as essential
by the state department that the
American commissioners have with
them some person thoroughly advised
as to the military and civil situation
at Manila, to assist in reaching a sound
conclusion. 1t was the intention of the
president 10 avail himself of Admiral
Dewey's services in this manner, but
after consultation with that officer it
was believed to be better to allow the
admiral to remain a Manila, where
the experience he has acquired will be
of great value in the days following
the decision of the peace commission
as to the future of the Philippines.
