HOPES AROUSED AT ALGER

Washington. June 16.-Another rumor
gained foothold in Camp Alger today to
the effect that the Second brigade, First
division, is TO proceed 10 Fernandina, Fla.
The members of the brigade named are
jubilant, while others are unhappy at
the prospect of remaining behind. II is
said that the authority for this talk was
a message delivered to Brigadier Cen
eral Garretson, commander of the bri-
gade, by superior officer 1t is also said
that the following regiments will accom-
pany the brigade: Third New York,
First Rhode Island. Fourth Missouri.

CAMP AT FERNANDINA, FLA.

Washington, June 16.-Many factors
are combining to make the military and
naval situation full of stirring activity,
and this was shown today by the large
crowds which thronged the corridors Of
the war and navy departments. The war
department was hurrying forth the
preparations at Fernandina. Fla, which
will make that point one of the most adj
vantageous in the country for the con-
centrat ton of a large body of troops No
tees had been sent to the city authori-
ties, as we'll as to army officials, directing
them to hurry the preparations. 1t was
said at the war department that the spe-
cial board which inspected Fernandina
found the proposed camp grounds so
suita BILE, by natural conditions and sur
roundings, that several thousand troops
could be accommodated there today if it
were necessary to institute the camp at
once.
The orders for this concentration havF
not yet been issued. although the infe-
ence is clear that they will follow when
Fernandina camp grounds are ready. The
department calculates that the grounds
will accommodate 10000 troops when all
preparations are completed. Secretary
Ayers main purpose in sending the spe-
cial board south was to avoid a repetition
of former experiences in having camps
occupied before they were fully prepared
in the way of water supply, tenting
grounds, trenches, etc. While the report
of the board has not been formally pre-
scented to the secretary, and while the re-
port itself, when made, will not recon-
mend Fernandina as against all other
cities examined. yet it has been known
to the secretary that Fernandina has
marked advantages for a camping ground
and without waiting for reports and can
wasting other localities, he has ordered
the preparation of the camping grounds
there
In response to inquiries from congress
men representing many other points in
the SOUTH the department officials said
today that this preparation al Fernan-
dina did not necessarily imply that Sa-
vannah. Charleston. Jacksonville and
other points inspected might not yet be
utilized for camping grounds. The deter
mination thus far. it was stated was 10
get ready at Fernandina and have at
least an available point thoroughly pre-
pared within the next few days

WHAT SORTOF NAN THE HEROO SANTIAGO |S

Greensboro. Ala, June 1.-THE hero Of
Santiago has q motto that is the guiding
rule of his life. His mother gave it to
him when he left home to enter the Ma
Val academy at Annapolis All who know
him wen have heard him repeat it MANY
times. They believe he repeated it once
more at Santiago.
K is from Holy Writ: ITO do Justly. To

A man Of such sentiments and rules Of

qualities. The hero Of Santiago was no.

The influence of this incident on the
future of the Philippines may prove TO be
of far-reaching. historical character.
General Aguinal6o's policy embraces the
independence OF the Philippines, whose
internal affairs would be controlled under
European and American advisers. Ameri-
can protection would be desirable temper
arily on the same lines as that which
might be instituted hereafter in Cuba
The ports Of the Philippines would be free
to the trade of the world, safeguards
being enacted against an influx of Chinese
aliens who would compete with the in
dustrious population of the country.
There would be a complete reform, under
experienced law officers from Europe or
America, of the present corrupt judiciary
of the country. The entire freedom of
the press and public meetings would be
established. There would be general re-
ligious population and steps would be
taken for the abolition and expulsion Of
thte tyrannical religious fraternities
that have a strong hand on every branch
of the civil administration. Full pro-
vision would he given for the exploitation
of the natural resources and wealth of
the country by roads, railways and by the
removal of all hInderances to enterprise
and the investment of capital. The Span
ish officials would be removed TO a place
of safety until an opportunity offered
for their return to Spain. The preserva-
ton of public safety and order and the
checking of reprisals against the Span
iards would naturally be the first care of
the government in the new state of
things.
