pine group, the only explanation of
which. coming from native sources. it is
true, but still bearing marks of genuine
ness, is ii purpose of acquiring either by
seizure or by some secret pact with the
Spanish Government the important is
land of palawan. This particular island
forms one side Of the gateway through
which must pass all of the extensive
commerce that flows between Australia,
Micronesia and Southern China. The
passage is narrow, and if the islands of
the Philippine group are to be retained,
outside Of Luzon, this island of Paawan
must be kept, thus forming one side of
the gateway. 1t is gathered that it is
the purpose Of the President therefore,
to prevent the alienation by Spain of any
of the Philippine group, and that these
preparations, naval, as well as military,
are but steps toward the execution of
his purpose. With the addition to his
feet Of the two battleships, Admiral
Dewey will have Il force only second to
that of Great Britain in Eastern waters,
while on shore General Otis will. have
Il more numerous army than any Eu-
r0pcan power save Russia.
