to the report chat Admiral Dewey is
to take ship IT Hong Kong on Novem-
Der 9Th for the United States. it is

been instructed to return. Just before
the peace commissioners met in Paris
in intimation was conveyed 70 Ad-
miral Dewey that he might be Of as
sistance to the American commission
ers if he would leave Manila and go
to Paris. The admiral replied that he
could be OF no service to the. United
States at Manila. and General Merritt
was sent to Paris in his stead 1t is
believed that the admiral was told at
the time taat he might remain at Ma
Mia as long as he thought fit, which
may be construed as permission TO him
to return at any time.
