IN THE COMMONS
References to American Alliance Re.
ceived With Cheers

LONDON, June 11.-Last evenings pro.
ceedings in Parliament contained illus
trations of the high favor in which Ameri-
cans are held here Just now. Every allu-
sion of Sir Vernon Harcourt, Mr. Curzon,
or Mr.. Chamberlain to the suggested alli-
ance or understanding was loudly cheered
the Irish alone dissenting.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt the Liber-
al leader, said:
mo one is more anxious or more eager
for closer and more permanent relations
with the United States than myself. Ever
since l have had anything to do with pub
lie life my foremost object has been to Gull
tivate good relations with the United
States. There have been mischieyous at
tempts to represent that there are diff
ferences between the two political parties
on this subject. There is no such differ
ence. There is no member of the Liberal
party, any more than of the Unionist party
who does not place friendship, alliance If
you choose to use the word in the sense
of friendship with the United States in
the very front of unselfsh politics."
Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain, at the end of
a long defense of his policy as Secretary of
State for the Colonies, made an eloquent
reiteration of his desire for close, cordial
and intimate relations with the United
States, adding: And the more close, the
more intimate and the more definite they
are, the better shall be satisfied"
At one point of his speech Mr.. Chamber
lain was repeatedly interrupted by the
Irish and the Daily Chronicle says it thinks
he will rue the "bitter words" with which he
finally answered. them Mr. Cbo
lain's words were: 1.-THE Irish will have
something to say about it, but am thank
full to say the Americans will not listen.
l know more of America than Mr.. Morley
and I say the Irish vote won't stand be-
tween us and America when there ia real
cause for unity"

A Steamer Secured

A Steamer Secured
SAN FRANCISCO, June 1.-THE steam
er Ohio, which is to be one of the steamers
composing the third fleet of transports to
be sent from this city to the Philippines, ar
rived this morning from Seattle and was
turned over to the government. The work
of preparing her for the transport service
will commence Immediately.
The Third Fleet
SAN FRANCISCO, June u.-Maj. Gen.
Merritt has decided that the third fleet to
sail for Manila shall consist of at least
eight steamships with capacity for nearly
1000 men. Preparations for the third fleet
are in progress. The city of Para has been
inspected and chartered. The Ohio for
merly an Atlantic liner of the International
Navigation company, arrived from Seattle
today and docked at Lombard street wharf
and was inspected during the afternoon by
the examining board. Her sister ship, the
Indiana, is expected to reach here from
Puget sound at an early hour. The Puebla
has also been chartered. The Victoria,
chartered from the North Pacific Steam
ship company, sailed on Thursday from
Tacoma and is now here. The Olympia
and the Arizona. also chartered from the
same company. will arrive here from the
north some time next week.
A careful inspection of the Morgan City
has revealed the fact that her boilers are
in need of some repairs, which cannot be
made in time for her to sail with the bal
ance of the Philippine transport fleet on
Wednesday, This reduces the number OF
transports of the second Manila expedition
to four-the China Colon, Zealandia and
Senator. The Morgan City, however, will
be nut in good condition in time enough to
sail with the third fleet, the departure of
which has not been definitely fixed. The
delay of this steamer has caused great dis
appointment to the two battalions of Idaho
volunteers, who were to sail on her. These

The four other steamers of the second
fleet will all finish taking on coal tomorrow,
and then the work of loading the equip
ments of swords and all necessary supplies
will at once be begun.
Rushing Work
MARE ISLAND NAVY YARD, June IL
All the departments are rushing the work
to the highest tension. The construction
and repair employees are working night and
day on the Nero formerly the Whitgift, and
the Monadnock. to get them in condition to
start for Manila The Monadnock Will be
completed Wednesday and the Nero Thurs
day at the latest, unless something unfore-
seen delays them. The work on the PHIL
ade,phia goes on as fast as the particularly
unfortunate circumstances will permit. The
ship has had to be taken from the dock
twice, stopping work on her hull in order TO
allow the docking of the Monterey, Monad-
mock and Nero. This necessitates great
delay and entails the expense of thousands
of dollars to the government 1t Is a very
aggravating case of struggling with one

Much speculation prevails among the men
IN regard to the. thirty days furlough that
IS TO be given them. Many conjecture that at
the end of that time the status of the pres
ent armistice will have developed and then
II the government sees fit the regiment will
either be sent to Cuba or be mustered out
or the service. The men will be allowed 80
cents day for subsistence during the
period of their furlough. Some of the men
think the regiment would be sent to Cuba
after its return from the furlough, as then
the men will have recuperated and the trop-
zeal climate will agree better with them
during the fall and winter months. Others
are sanguine that they will be mustered
out at the end of the furlough and this is
