WASHINGTON, August 2.-Although
the war department officials will not
admit that they have any intention Of
reinforcing further General MerritrS
forces at Cavlte, there Is reason to be-
lieye that some Of the troops now, IN
eastern camps who desire to see active
service will soon hnd the opportunity
unless the government shall change 80
present plans with respect to the Phil.
ipplnes. 1t is believed to be necessary,
even if our claim Is KNITTED to the terms
stated in the conditions submitted to
Spain, namely, TO the military occupae
ton and government of the territory on
the shores of the bay OF Manila, to fur-
nIsh General Merritt a larger force than
he has now at his command. II Is real-
lied that 10000 soldiers can scarcely be
expected to maintain United States pos
session and protect the inhabitants over
a territory Of this extent. OF course,
considerable force would not be neces-
sary II the insurgents under .AButnaldo
could be brought to realize that thelr
interests lie in permitting undisputed
possession OF this territory by the
United States. But Il would be eXpect-
ing too much OF the native character 70

out an adequate force to protect the
place. -
