A WEEK OF SUSPENSE.
Happy People Appeased Their Appe-
tites Yesterday.

For a whole week the people of Savan-
nah waited impadentiy for news from
Commodore Dewey. The anxiety during
the past few days took away appetstes and
the butchers and bakers began to look Sc
riously on the matter.
But yesterday the gloom was lifted,
cheering news came from the Philippines
and everybody became happy and hungry.
There will be feast in every home to-day.
The great rush for the many good things
that Logan. the butcher. keeps for mis- Gus
toners, aas one of the most demonstrative
eince the spring season began and war was
declared.
The, way that rice field lamb was cut up
and sent out was surprising. The ele-
giant roasts and steaks that attracted the
attention Of the ladies', and the poultry,
fish, vegetables, strawbeI ries, and delica-
cies, together with the greatly increased
den and for Logan's creamery butterine,
all told Of the satisfied patrons who will

ed they would adopt harsh methods, like
the Spaniards toward the Filipinos; but the
insurgents. from the first. have had the
greatest confidence in Admiral Dewey
whom they regard as a sort of father and
the most important American at Manila
The Junta is satisfied that all friction will
soon disappear and that there will be nc
trouble from the insurgents IL the Ameri-
cans decide to retain the Philippines.
According to a wealthy Filipino now in
London, the Ffiipinos in Europe are all
well-to-do people. Hitherto they have held
aloof from the insurgents; but they now
realize that their interests demand action,
and they are about to form a committee TO
open negotiations with the junta here.
They are all in favor of having the archi-
pelago retained by the United States
SO strong is their conviction of the de-
slrabillty of this course that they had con-
templated approaching the British foreign
office TO invite Great Britain to intervene
and in any event to prevent the islands be-
ing returned TO the control of Spain. They
