On June Il 17T7. Congress formally
adopted the flag as redrawn by Gen.
Washington from a suggestion of
Miss Elizabeth Ross, upholsterer. better
known as Betsy Ross. The return of the
day brings back recoIlections of the in
teresting Quakeress runaway bride of the
Griscom family. who, according to the
strict discipline of the Society of Friends,
naturally preferred that their daughters

as they did After marrying John Ross

Church. on Second Street, above Market.
Her pew may be viewed there by any

Patriotic daughters have placed a little
brass plate in position to show that it
was occupied by Mrs. Elizabeth Ross.
A small United States flag Is fastened
to the pillar adjacent.
Besy Ross had two children by her
second husband, Joseph Ashburn-Zillah,

THE PHILIPPINE EXPEDITIONS
With the Second InstnIIment, G,O00
Troops are En- Route.

Troops En- Route.
With the sailing of the second expedi-
ton from San Francisco, 5000 troops are
on their way to the Philippines.
Three thousand men sailed yesterday
and 200 men left on the first moyswnent
on the steamers City of Sydney. the City
of Pekin and the City of Australia.
The statement was made at the War
Department and 1t is believed to be
authoritative. to the effect that neither
the first nor the second expeditions will
stop any length OF time at either the
Ladrone or the Caroline Islands. but that
the third expedition, of which Mai. Gen.
Merritt will have direct command. will
stop at both places and invest them.
After planting the American flag, it is
stated that he will sail on to Manila, and,
with 10000 men. begin the task assigned
10 him of establishing a permanent form
of government.
The reason assigned for the above ar
| rangement is the need of having large
! body of American regulars at Manila as
soon as possible to meet any emergency.
The 5000 troops comprising the first and
: second expeditions will. 1t is thought, be
! sufficient for this purpose. ana it is be-
! lieved that they can hold the Philippines
i
Carolines and the Ladr0nes.
/ Fourteen thousand men remain to be
! sent with the next and subsequent expe-
| ditions. When Gen. Merritt arrives with
/ them in Manila and joins the troops sent
! ahead on the first, and with the present
! expedition he win have an army OF 20. .O11
men. consisting of all branches of the
service. He will have both regulars and
! volunteers.
The first expedition should arrive at
| Manila inside Of seven days 1t was
reported several days out from Honolulu
| more than a week ago. and barring ac-
| cident should arrive at its destination
very soon
The second expedition is expected to
make the trip in three weeks. so that by
! July 4, or shortly after that date, it
should arrive at manila.
The third expedition IS not ready yet
| and cannot possibly get away before
| June %. .-
1t is probable that the transport ships
on the Pacific coast will be ready by that
date Gen. Merritt has got his men into
shape. and could embark with his entire
army tomorrow if he had the transports.
| The War Department has been remark
! ably successful in obtaining steamers on
the Pacific, but the delay has been oc-
casioned in fitting them out for the long
trip before them. Ten days will be re-
quired to get the fleet in proper shape.

any delay caused by the failure to act
promptly in the matter of transports.
In fact several fine transatlantic steam
ers now at New York viii be examined at
once. The Caracas and the Philadelphia,
Of the Red d Line, now at that port, will
be examined today or tomorrow and it is
said that the British steamer Allswald is
included in the list, Major ]. w. Sum

New York. has been given entire charge
of the preliminary work at that port.
1t was stated at the Navy Department
yesterday afternoon that some of the war

PIG IRON TRUST FORMED
Carnegie People Are Urging Others
to Come In.

Cleveland. Ohio, Feb 10-An afternoon
ppaer says: In Cleveland iron circles the
sensational story was circulated today
that an effort is being made by the Car
negie Iron company to form a trust, con-
trolling the entire pig iron trade of the
country.
Local iron dealers recently received
communications from the Carnegie COM
pany urging that such a deal be consid-
cred and advancing lengthy arguments to
prove the benefit a trust would be to all
concerned.
The promoters of the project propose
TO follow the same plan under which the
big coal trust is now being organized.
They propose TO bring all the leading pro-
ducers into the combine and regulate their
output by giving each member Of the COM
bine an allotment. II is proposed 10 regu-
late the allotment by figuring on the
average output Of each firm during the
past five years.
Pittsburg. Feb. 10.-The officials Of the
Carnegie company were shown the dis
patch from Cleveland in which il was
stated that the Carnegie company was
making an effort TO form a pig iron trust
and they pronounced it false IN every par
rfcular
