Chicago, Sept. 2s-Governor Gem
eral Francis ". Greene. of the Aneri-
can army OF invasion Of the Philip
pines, and Senior Felipe Angoncilla,
vice president of Agrinaldo's revoln-
tionary government, arrived in Chi
cago yesterday, en- route to Washing
ton. General Greene's errand is to
give the executive his views and the
views OF his fellow officers concerning
the right course for this government
to pursue in regard to the future Of
the islands. The Filipino goes to APP
peal to the president for representa-
ton on the Paris peace commission.
and for immediate independence for
his people. !
During the day Senior Angoncilla, at
his W request, was driven to Lincoln
park to see the big bronze statue of
Abraham Lincoln, who, the Filipino
statesman said, was his ideal Ameri-
can statesman and citizen. About ten
or fifteen minutes was spent at the
statue, Senior Angoncilla barring his
head ito one of the greatest worlds
rulers" MS he put it.
Sin all my historical study i have
paid the most attention to the growth
of the power and influence OF this
United States government.
Tits my ideal of u government, and
it is the pattern which the Philippine
people will follow when they are i'm
dependent. I have visited the courts
of China and Japan, but there is moth
ing in either of those empires that
compares to the freedom of this coun-
try. This is the land that we have
looked up to SO many years, and the
one whose footsteps we have tried to
follow"
Angoncilla denied the report that
France had promised to recognize the
Philippine republic, and intimated
that his sole hope of independence
was with President Mckinley and the
government of the United States.
General Greene refused to talk as to
the nature Of his report to Mr.. McKin-
ley, but expressed a very high opinion
OF the Philippines as men and fighters.
The inhabitants Of the islands, he said,
are superior in every way to the Gu
bans or to the North American In
dians, and once they are freed from
Spanish oppression have a magnificent
future before them.
General Greene and Senior Angon-
ella left for Washington later in the
day over the Pennsylvania road.

Washington, Sept. 2s.-Acting Sec
rotary Allen has received confirmation
of the press reports of the raising of
the Spanish flagship Maria Teresa Sat
urday by Hobson. Now that the Teresa
has been raised Hobson has been in
structed to work on the Colon
and to begin operations toward the
wrecking of the Mercedes, which lies
within the mouth OF Santiago harbor
close to the Merrimac. 1t is in smooth
water and well situated for successful.
~wrecking.
The Teresa will be brought north as
soon MS she is in condition to UNDER
take the voyage. The wreckers who
so successfully accomplished the work
earned q large sum of money under
the salvage law, the exact amount of
which will probably be determined by
the admiralty court. 1t is the present
purpose of the department to place the
Teresa in commission as u United

English custom, her name will likely
remain unchanged to carry into the

>tion from the commissioners who ar:
rived at Key West, and who We're sent
to this country by General Gomez, the.

grams depict the situation in the pro-
vince of Santa Clara as most critical.
The Cuban army is said to be starv-
ing. Vegetables are almost gone and
the last of the mules and horses have
been killed to feed5the sick. Children
and old people are said to be dying
by the dozens every day. The general
appeals for aid and says his men are
desperate.
The Spaniards are doing all they can
to make the insurgents situation
mora terrible. 1t is feared that serious
results may arise from this and the
Cubans cannot be blamed if they are
forced to take necessary steps TO pro.
,ect life. This they can do by captnr.
ing the town, but the cubans pledged
themselves not to 5violate the armis.
ice and they, therefore, appeal TO the
United States in order to avoid a cor,
