nexation question he said.
1.-THE Philippines is problem we can.
not solve in hurry. We of course. must
retaiu coaling station there, but dc
not think it likely we shall want more
than Manila and it's harbor.
Cuba is another problem. l never was
much OF a Cuban and am not prepared to
commit myself as to the policy we should
pursue there. We propose to establish a
stable government in that island, but
what constitutes q stable government has
not vet been defined. think, however,
Cuba will be an evolution, and In about
twenty years it will be SO thoroughly
Americanized that there will be no ques-
ton as to what stable government
means. u

MAINE SOLDIERS.
How the Signal Corps Fared in the santi-
ago Campaign.

Adjutant General Richards has re-
ceived o letter from Capt. Butler OF the
Maine Signal Corps at Santiago, Cuoa'
under the date of August s. Capt. But
Ter says his men have had hard tlme'
but they are in much better condltioh
than they were, only five men being III
the hospital, of which number one Is con-
sidered dangerous. A week before that
he had 81 men i'll. One man, fr1vate
Parks, was sent north, the rest OF tne
men are all there. Eight of the men IN
Guiding Capt. Butler, have had yellow
fever. Lieut.. Steele, who was temporarl-
ly stationed with the Maine Signal corps,
died August 5, with yellow fever. Most
of the illness of the men has been caused
by rheumatism and fever, brought on by
sleeping in wet clothes and in marshy
places.
The corps have had no trouble in get
ting rations since the first few days after
landing. Since then they have been
more TO rtunate and have had three meals
day while for three or four days after
they landed they only had two. The
Cubans, however, managed to secure
| three and four.
| Capt. Butler was greatly handicapped
BY the lack of pack mules, but now has q
supply. AS his men have been scattered
over a large extent of territory he has
had to send pack trains with ratlons,
wire and teleyraphers' batteries for IA
miles over the mountains.
AS soon as possible he will have the
men sign the bounty rolls and return
| them to Maine. He has had the rolls
some time, but has been unable to have
them made out as he has been Ill with the
| fever.
In relation to the money raised In the
churches for the sick and convalescenU
soldiers, Capt. Butler says there is great
need of it and has used some OF his own
money to provide luxuries for the men
and will replace 1t when the money from
the subscriptions arrives. The men nave
| little strength and the noulishment that
can be procured by the extra money Is
greatly appreciated and does vast
amount of good.
| At the time the letter was written
Capt. Butler expected to leave Cuba for
the United States in about two weeks.
AS vet no word has been received that he
had orders to sail or that he had sailed.
