Gen. Weyler expressed the belief that
the present cabinet win be succeeded by
a military dictatorship or a Silvela gov

sire a change in the form of government
but he pointed out that the Carlsts have
an excellent organization.
Continuing, the former captain general

Washington, Aug. % Hs facts, as
known at the war department., in refer
ence to the departure of Lieut.. Johnston
and his detachment from the camp of
Gen Gomez, do not correspond with the
reports telegraphed from Havana and pub
iished this morning.
When the Wanderer sailed from the
Florida coast on her last trip. with sup
plies for Gomez and the Cubans, she car
ried orders to Lieut.. Johnston to remove
his detachment and return to the United
States.
The orders were not made public at the
time, because the war was not over at
that time, and it was not deemed prudent
to allow the Spanlards to know that a de-
tachment of United States soldiers were
about to take ship for the United States
and because general secrecy was main
taiped regarding expeditions to the Cubans
until they were accomplished.
1t is stated that Lieut.. Johnston with
drew from Gomez camp on direct orders
from The war department.

MILES MAY BE ARRAIGNED.
RECENT INTERVIEWS SUBJECT
HIM TO MILITARY DISCIPLINE.

Publication of Dispatches Which
Had Not Been Made Public by the
War Department Demand an EV-
pIanatiOn-Controve Deplored
as IL Tends 10 Degrade the Tone of
the Army--Secretary AIger Refuses
to Discuss the Matter During the
Absence of Gen. MiIes-COntroversy
Expected to Extend to Both Houses
of Congress.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-When Gen. Miles
returns to Washington he viii be asked
for an explanation of the recent interviews
appearing from him and the publication Of
certain dispatches which the war depart
ment has not made public.
Whether the investigation win take the
course of a military court Of inquiry or Of
a private interview between the President
Secretary of War, and Gen. Miles remains
yet to be seen.
Secretary Alger says that the department
will not enter into any controversy with
its subordinates and he does not propose
to discuss matters affecting Gen. Miles
during his absence. The department is of
opinion that Gen. Miles made public the
dispatches of the secretary, Gen. Shafter
and himself published this morning.
Such action it regards as a breach of
military regulations, but no military court
can secure proof that Gen Miles made
public the dispatches II he and the person
to whom they were Furnished refuse to give
the information, as several military trials
have made 1t settled law that no military
court can compel a civilian 10 testify if he
does not want to.
Gen. Miles also may be called to account
for the interviews with him as, unless dis
avowed, they would place him in the atti-
tude of criticising superior officers, and
subject him to military discipline.
The publication of dispatches to-day, ta-
ken together with previous interviews in
the Kansas City Star, were the topic of
! conversation among the officers of the war
department and already there is a d!spo-
sitIon by some to take sides in the matter
while others deplore the conditions as tend
ing to lower the tone of the army and to
do irreparable injury to the service.
1t is expected the controversy VIII extend
| to both houses of Congress, and it Is fear
| ed will have an adverse legislation which
win be asked to better the army
It is generally understood that the reg
ular force WIN have 10 be largely increased
at least until the conquered islands are dis
! posed and, 1t Is feared that legislation In
! this direction win be hampered by the in
evitable controversy between the Secretary
| of War and the general commanding the
army.

Mondays Deaths Declared to BE of
PernIcIous Malaria.

New York, Aug. SO.-Medical officers at
Camp Wikoff, Montauk Point, deny that
there have been deaths at the camp hos
pital from yellow fever.
The two men whose death there yester-
day was said to be attributable to the dis
ease named were. according to the sur
geons in charge, victims of pernicious ma
larial fever, which those unfamiliar with

latter.
DR.. Nicholas Sem, assistant surgeon
general United States Army, is quoted as
saying to-day a Camp Wilkoff: so far,
none Of the fevers has been Indigenous TO
camp But if the men remain they will
certainly be attacked with typhoid fever.
This VIII be due TO the germs which they
Will get in the water. For time this
camp win be a healthy one, but in a few
weeks the typhoid feveg germs from the
sinks and cesspools now scattered so
thiclSly about, will permeate the earth and
contaminate the water supply.
"To make this place healthy we should
have a system of drainage which would
carry away all these germs, but to build
such would cost a large sum, owing TO
the extent of the camp"
Several hundred cots arrived last night
and were this morning put up in the dif-
ferent hospitals. There is now enough
room to accommodate all the sick.
Five deaths were reported to-day.
The transport San Marcos, which reach

MAI. HAYES SCHEME.
a Plan for the Reorganization of the
National Gunrd.


Cleveland O., Aug. SO.-Maj. Webb C.
Hayes, son of the late President Hayes,
who Is said 10 be the only volunteer Of
lcer that served in both the Cuban and
Porto Rican campaigns, and who is ac-
companying President Mckinley on his
present trip has proposed a plan to the
chief executive looking toward the re-or--
ganlzation of the national guard under
military law.
The plan provides that the President
shall appoint an adjutaut general for
each state; that as many bodies of militia
shall be raised in each state as c'rcum-
stances require, and that all officers OF
such militia shall be nominated by the
Governors of the various states.
They would then be under the direct
control of The national government, and
much Of the difficulty experienced when
the guard was called into the service for
The Spanish war would be obviated
Mai Hayes, when asked what he
thought of the charges of starvation In
the regiments at the front, said: Look at
me; do 1 look starved? l lived on the
same rations as the soldiers, and have
grown fleshy on that fare
Maj. Hayes was attired In the brown
canvas uniform of a field officer. and
looked brown as his suit and as rugged as
a veteran.
Il may be wrong, but In my opinion the
greatest cause for complaint is summed
up in cooks and homesickness.'
"The government purchased bountifully
of all needed supplies. That there was
some mismanagement II is impossible to
deny, but investigation VIII show 1t a
case of cooks and homesickness' that
crippled the army and packed the hospit-
ais"
