WILL OCCUPY PnILIpPINE ISLANDS
with IA Strong Mnitary Forcc--prce,,,ent
May Send General FitzhuRh Leo to MA
nilla I" Govern the Newly Acquired
Territory.

Washington, May 3.--Tho cnbinot
meeting today resulted in u decision
to await u report form CommoC 0 20
Dewey and then to send him the
number Of troops he deems necessary
to enforce our control of the Philip.
pines. The whole session was con-
sumed in general discussion Of
past events. The administration has
practically decided to occupy tho
Philippines with strong military
force rs soon as possible after the
commodoro's report, which is expect.
ed by tomorrow, has been received.
For this purpose Pacific slope
troops will bo used. and it is expect
cd that at least 5000 will be en- route
within tho ncxt ton days. There
docs not seem to be any doubt as to
tho governments purpose to hold
these islands pending fiual settle
mont with Spain, when they will be
used rs collateral to secure the pay
mont to the United States Of war
indemnity. High officials aro of the
opinion that mono of the powers will
seriously dispute our right to make
such final disposition Of tho islands
as suits our purpose in tho enforce
ment of war claims against Spain,
nnd in any event this government
vii be prepared 10 contest any point
which may bo raised on this score.
As indicated in Secretary Longs
request today for un emergency APP
preparation, the government will
take steps at onco to supply Com
modore Dowcy's fleet with provs.
ions and other supplies, including
ammunition and coal, aud to this end
will dispatch at the earliest possible
moment sufficient number Of ships
to supply all possible needs Of tho
Asiatic squadron.
Although withont confirmation
from any official source, tho naval
officials are disposed to attach some
credit to tho statement coming from
Paris that at the last accounts from
Manila tho American fleet was fir.
ing upon Corregidor island. This
island lies in tho outer entrance to
tho harbor Of Manila, and is about
twenty, five miles below the city. 1t
is crowned by lighthouse and has
several modern guns.
The president has stated positive
ly to the southern delegation calling
that he had appointed both Generals
Lee and Wheeler major generals
There is much speculation hero as TO
what roles will bo assigned to the
two now officers.
The cabinet has decided, after
having tho victory of Dewey official
ly reported from that officer, to seEd
an army Of occupation at once 10 the
Philippines to land at Manila.
1t is stated on the best authority
that tho president is considering the
advisability of sonding General Leo
as governor general to the Philippines,
that group Of islands forming a
greater problem to be solved than
Cuba, after tho latter shall havo
fallen.

Owing to the short space of time al

TENTS GREATLY NEEDED.
Adjntant General Watts returned
from Washington at midday. He
brought the news that tho depart
ment would endcavor to forward
proper equipments ut the earliest
possible moment, but could not tell
when that moment was to arrive.
And this is rather n serious matter;
the State armory has been emptied
of its entire supply of tonts, and that
supply does not exceed more than
half tho number required, if that.
General Watts says that he can
furnish no more. 1t is proposed, un-
der these circumstances, to put
many of the men in partially com
pleted houses very closo to the camp
and il necessary quarter some Of

It is stated that forced marriage
means an early separation; not in the
natural way by death but by a written
instrument called q divorce which in
this enlightened day and age of the
world can be easil y obtained with
little trouble and but few dollars.
But when young couple get divorced
and begin to look around for other
mates they do not always find it an
easy task to capture the ones suited
to their fancy and taste. And it is
far better, young man, to go slow and
cautious and not be forced to marry
the gal you don't want.

WANTED THE GLORY HERSELF.
Miss Lennon Objects TO Course o
Her Feminine Legal Adviser.

Whether CT not it is a real wrong
10 steal another persons thunder is
a question that troubles the legal
mind of Florence King, patent at
torney, whose office is on the fifteenth
floor Of the Monadnock building.
Two days ago Miss King, who has
blue eyes and taken hair, wanted to
lead the "Womans Klondike club"
In its search for Alaskan nuggets.
The day before yesterday she was
confronted with an obstacle con-
slstlng Of statement issuing from
the lips of Lillian Lennon, the real
founder Of the club

gave to her friends a formulated plan
Tor organizing woman's club of gold
seekers to go to the gold fields in the
early spring. Miss King was among
the first to apply toI membership and
Miss Lennon embraced the oppor-
tunity OF having legal adviser right
in the family.
Miss King visited the offices Of the
daily papers, explained the purposes
of the club, was written up and pic
tured in Thursdays issues, and then
came trouble. Miss Lennon was
angered. With her carefully laid
plans and her $4,000 backing, she sat
in room 1926 Monadnock building,
and wondered why the women who
wanted information didn't call for ii.
Miss King, on the floor above, was
interviewing applicants for mem Der
ship by the score
Then the clash came, and a little
later Miss King was induced by Miss
Lennon to say that the whole thing
was mistake; that Miss Lennon
was the real head of the club, and
had been SO from the start
Miss Lennon is determined If any
face hereafter figures in two-column
newspaper cuts in connection with
the Woman's X ondike club that face
shall not be the face Of Miss King

SPANS QUEEN REGENT.
A Remarkable Woman Whom Other
Women Must Instinctively Love.

Every woman of Spain, Spanish or
American. that ! have met, has
special shrine in her heart for the
queen, of whom they speak with the
same alteration with which the aver
age English woman mentions Queen
Victoria, or the average Dutch wom-
an Queen Emma My American
Spanish friends tell me she has to the
most extraordinary degree the royal
endowments of tact and good sense.
Many of the grandees of Spain are of
far older birth and family than the
Austrian princess whom Alfonso II
chose TO take the place of his gentle
little cousin Mercedes after her death
Think of Marie Antoinette and the
! French, and then of this young Aus
trian going to land whose language
even she had scarcely ever heard, and
where she must win not only her peo-
pies. but her husbands heart; for we
all remember that in the beginning
all the young kings tenderness was
buried in the grave of his childwife.
hoiic SullSllhS Coiqucitu III hNi
husbands love, closed his eyes in his
last sleep, and then bravely and nobly
waited alone until the time of her
trial was ended and the posthumous
| heir to the throne was born.
By far the hardest part of her task
lay before her then-to reconcile the
various Spanish parties, TO make for
| liberalism without alternating the re-
dictionary party of the monarchy, and
to take her place as a queen without
offending the pride of those naughty
grandees that we know so well
through our own Motley, on the look
out for the least opportunity to criti-
else "the Austrian" and above all, to
be jealous of her influence over the
young king. Has ever any woman in
modern times more bravely and sue
cessfully accomplished a more hercu-
lean task? 1t is only through her
wonderful care that the little king is
alive. He is a remarkably delicate
child but not the imperious and
naughty little person that legend rep
resents him, | am told. On the con-
trary, he has naturally very sweet
disposition, and is tractable and kind
His health improves constantly as he
grows older.-Paris Letter in Harper
Bazaar.
