rious Cases OF Pneumonia
and Smallpox.

San Francisco. July 25.-It was an
quarters to-day that the removal Of
troops from Camp Merritt to the Pre-
sidio would begin tomorrow. Captain
Thompson of the quartermaster's de-
partment. who had been directing the
work of preparing the Preside grounds
for occupation. reported that the ar
engagements so far as his department
is concerned were practically completed
this afternoon. The arrival here of the
LIST battalion of the Washington regi-
ment of volunteers is expected to re-
suit in an order being issued by Gen-
eral Merriam relieving the other two
battalions from duty at the various
posts about the bay and bringing the
entire regiment together at the Pre-
sidio.
The next expedition. consisting Of the
rest of the South Dakota troops and
recruit for other regiments already in
the Philippines, is expected to leave
next Thursday or Friday at the latest
on the steamer St. Paul. The Scandal

Seattle, July 25.-The steamer Charles
Nelson arrived here to-day from st.
Michaels with 173 passengers from
Dawson and gold dust estimated all the
way from 81. oOO, 900 to 1850, 900. Purser
NJ. A. Tucker said: II believe that 81
SOC. 900 is a fair estimate. OF that
noun I can vouch for $500, 900. which
was turned over 10 me and placed in

One man, Mr.. Tucker said, had $175.-

his father and two brothers, carried of
the steamer nine canvas sacks. which
weighed about 100 pounds each. This
was the cleanup from Lippy's claim.
No. 16 Eldorado.
Charles Randall, an old-timer, had
ss4, 900. other individual amounts ran
from 81, 900 to $40, 900, $1,000 being the
average. At 5 o'clock this afternoon q
passengers had deposited in the assay
office $500. 900. Four thousand ounces
was the largest individual amoun:
This did not include the Lippy AMI
Randall gold. About one-third of the
passengers brought no gold. Some Of
them had gone in this spring. Not lik-
ing the prospect they sold their outfits
and returned.
People are arriving at st. Michaels
every day from Yukon. and the next
steamers from there will he crowded
to their full capacity. Owing to the
high rates on the river steamers many
are floating down in small boats. When
the Nelson left st. Michaels there were

the river. Some were drawing four feet
of water and doubts were expressed VI
the ability of the heaviest craft ever
getting to Dawson. There is a large
amount Of merchandise at st. Michaels,
which will insure plenty of food next
winter if it can be gotten up before ice
closes navigation.
Moran's fleet Of 10 river steamers
was passed by the Nelson just after il
had entered Boring sea, about 900 miles
from st. Michaels. The arrival of the
fleet was ~anxiously awaited at st.
Michaels, as it would enable many Of
the to send their passengers
up the river. The passengers were get
ting uneasy and discontented. Several
steamers were unable to sail, owing to
the fact that their passengers would
not disembark until river transporta-
ton was provided for them. Among
the thus delayed were the
Progresso, South Portland and Brix-
ham,. The noted Cuban flibuster, Lau-
rada. with three lows, was passed by
the Nelson in Boring sea. The Cone
maugh was ~discharging her steel river
steamers and they were being riveted
together. The Navarro had arrived
with her tow. the river steamer Min
neapolis, in good condition.

the people thereof after a firm and
staple government lad La,n estab-
lished. Therefore. we cannot with snv
show of consistency lay claim to the
island after II has been taken frcm
Spain.
1T is yet to BE- determined whether
or no. the Cubans are capaoIe Of self
government. If thev are. well and
good, We should turn the jsland over
to them; but IL the Cubans become dis
atisfied with their form OF government
after we set ii up and rebel AGAINST H.
we would doubtless be called upon 20
step in and take the island. This. 20
my mind, is the only continrencv
which could arise wherein the limited
States would be justified in taking
Cuba.
AT this time it is not possible to
form an approximate estimate of the
amount of indemnity we should de-
mand from Spain. Much depends on
future events. 1t seems to me, how
ever. that the Maine incident should
not be lost sight of when the United
States begins to figure on indemnity. 4
have always believed that the Maine
was blown up by the Spanish. II may
be. however, that the act was done sur
reptitiously and without the knovledya
of h Spanish government. But the
Maine went into a friendly harbor on "A
friendly mission and should have been
protected while in that harbor. This is
a TACT which the American people AN
not lose sight OF.
OF the Spanish territory which NAV
accrue to us because of the war, there
is only one island which would be
in favor of retaining, and that is Porto
Rico. There are reasons why Porto
Rico would be a desirable ACQUISITION.
But. as 1 believe, there is no excuse
for taking the Philippines or Cuba. An
nexation of the Philippines would be
endless trouble for our government
Already we are confronted with the in
surgent leader A~guinaldo, who has be-
decked himself with jewels. whistles
and other trinkets to distinguish him
self from other mortals, and IL we al
tempt to lay claim to the Philippine
group we may have serious trouble with
the insurgents.
Porto Rico Is needed as a coaling
station for our warships in times If
war and for our merchantmen in times
of peace. n day has come when we
should Ia coaling stations i'm all
parts of the world. The present war
has forcibly demonstrated that coal -
as valuable as gunpowder and we
should make every provision for coal in
the future.

but the future will require an enlarge
ment of our present sea force. / am
emphatically in favor of an increase in
u naval strength. but ii is just as
well that the increase come gradually.
Our LAND forces also should be aug
mented. A standing army of 30, coo
would not be too large for our popula-
ton. An inter-ocean canal, which |
hope to see constructed in the near flu
ture, would be of great advantage t.
us in defending our western seacoast
1t would do away with the necessity of
maintaining a large navy in the Pacific.

FUTURE POLICY.
The Subject of Sermons by Many Chicago
Ecclesiastics.

EccIesiastics.
Chicago, July 25.-The changed rela-
tons between the United States and
other nations that may result from the
war with Spain and problems imposed
upon this country by the conquest of
territory incident to the war were dis
cussed in many Chicago pulpits Sun
day. At St. Paul's Reformed Episco-
pal church Bishop Samuel Fallows
spoke from the text: In the name of
our God we will set up our banners"
He said in part:
For the first time in the history of
the world has a nations banner been
carried forward by strong, brave hands.
purely in the interest of humanity. The
American flag. which is expressive of
the most advanced political ideas in the
possession OF man, has been set up over
the territory wrested by the force of
arms from a nation noted for its mis-
rule and cruelty. The old world, with
one notable exception, derisively smiled
when we announces the humanitarian
purpo of the present war. Lust of
conquest was believed to be our real
animating purpose. The world will yet
see that we were thoroughly honest in
our statements
Wherever the American flag now
waves or wherever il shall wave here
after, it must never be taken down I'M
til another flag which shall represent
the same glorious ideas shall take its
place"
Territorial Expansion was the SUBJ
ject of a prelude to a sermon by the
Rev. ]. III. o. Smith at Union Christian
church in the evening. The speaker
said: "A new world power has ap-
peared in the congress of nations. For
years England has stood for the prin-
ciples of Professionalism. America will
stand in the parliament of the world
for the principles of n~on-sectarian
Christianity. II an A~nglo-Saxon al
lance is formed it must be upon the
American, not English, platform.
"The world must recognize the rights
of every man, whether a southern sun
tanned his skin. or a northern cline has
bleached him white. 1t is a surprise to
us. but it may be a part of the divine
plan, that the United States shall ex-
tend its protectorate over other lands"
The Rev. Atwood Percival preached
at the Presbyterian tabernacle on The
Mission OF Military Protectorate."
Among other things he said: We must.
as a nation. take our share of response
bility for the rest of the world. And
that part of ii which falls to us now.
u~nsought, but still providentially. must
be accepted and cared for as a trust for
whose right keeping we shall answer to
God and to history
The Rev. DIR. Howard Agnew John
ston, pastor of the Forty-third Street
Presbyterian church, preached on Les
sons from Manila and Santiago" He
said in part: The last thought is that
fidelity brings glory to the cause. our
flag means more to-day n a ever be-
fore. The nations of Europe know now
that this country must ave a place
and be A great factor in the worlds
problems which wait to be solved. SO
the glory Of Christianity results from
the fidelity Of su-h heroes as Paul and
Luther n Livingstone"
