Wheeler VIII Resign.

MoNTAUK POINT, L. L, Sept. 49,
Three deaths were reported at the gen.
eral hospital today. Three new, wooden
hospital buildings are being put up, as
it is believed that many of the sick
cannot be moved for some time. The
question Of sending General Wheeler's
cavalry brigade to Huntsville, Ala,
caused numerous messages to I5 ex-
changed between General Wheeler and
the War Department. General Wheeler
says he does not know just when his
cavalrymen will be moved from Mon
tauk. but he expects they will be or
dered away by the first Of the month.
General Wheeler, who fully expects to
return to Congress, will resign from the
army early In October.

MOST REMARKABLE CASE.
A Second SoIoman Needed to Cut
the Child in two, Between
Claiming Women.

ST.. LOUIS, Mo. Sept. 1.-TWO years
ago, little Laura Nation disappeared
from st. Joseph, Mo-, but although re-
wards were offered for her return, she
was never found. At Four Courts,
Mrs. Nation, who came here today from
Elwoot, Kansas, her present home, and
Mrs. Charles Henry Beard, wife of an
aeronaut, are contending for the pos
session of a child that each claims as
her own, Mrs. Nation positively identi-
flying the child by birth marks, as her
long lost Laura, while the other woman
as strenuously asserts that the child is
her own flesh and blood. Both women
have brought up positive witnesses.
Mrs. Beard and the child, whom she
calls Grace, are in custody of the po-
lice, awaiting the decision as to the
child's ownership.

CHICAGO. H., Sept. 19-The dense

the upper lakes. is bringing long list
of disasters to vessel men and marine

lake Michigan and lake supsrior. The
The cause of thesmoke seems unknown
as no forest fires have been reported
anywhere near the upper lakes, 1t is be-
lieved that the smoke comes from fires in

miles distant. Up to . late hour this

FILIPINOS ADDRESS TO THIS COUNTRY

contained in the document that Aguin.
aldo had profted by the warnings of
the American commanders and grace
fully receded from the arrogant atti-
tude assumed by him just before Gen.
eral Merritt left Manila for Paris.
In sending fresh reinforcements for
the army Minila and despatching the
battleships Oregon and Iowa to the
Pacidc, it is said that the real purpose
is to insure the peace commissioners
against any interference in their work
OF disposlng of the future of the Philip
pines, according to their best judg-
ment.
/ A long line Of curious incidents. to
which one of the great European
powers has been party, has beyond
question done much to cause feeling
of uneasiness on the part of the Ad-
ministration, as tending to show the
purpose to interfere in our free action
in the Philippines. This has been only
slightly diminished by the apparently
frank disclaimers of ulterior purpose,
because the incidents continue quietly.
Such, for instance, is the gathering of
naval vessels south of the Philippine
group, the only explanation of which 10
the purpose of acquiring either by
seizure or by some secret pact with the
Spanish government, the important
island of Palawan. This particular
island forms
ONE SIDE OF THE GATE WAY
through which must pass all the exten-
sive commerce that flows between Aus
tralia, Micronesia and Southern China.
1t is gathered that 1t is the purpose of
the President therefore, to prevent the
alienation by Spain of any of the Phil
ippine group, and the preparations,
naval as wei as military, are but steps
toward the execution Of his purpose.
With the addition to his fleet of two
battleships, Admiral Dewey will have
force only second to that of Great
Britain in Eastern waters, while on
shore General Otis will have a more
numerous army than any Europen
power save Russia.
