show for the purpose of securing the
best terms possible from the Ameri-
cans. 1t is the opinion of Admiral
Dewey that it would be advisable for
the United States to pay the insur-
gent troops their arrears of wages.
The whole sum would only be com
paratively trifing sum and the pay
ment of the troops would have val
liable effect and may save incalcula-
BILE trouble. Finally Admiral Dewey
was strongly convinced that the in
surgents deserve acknowledgement.
He is a believer in the practicability
of liberal measures in the direction of
autonomy. Regarding the possibility
of international complications, Dewey
said: 'sPrior to the arrival Of the mon
itors, [ felt uneasy. But now [ am
ready to hold this position against the

WASRlNGTON LETTER.

sPE IAL eoRREsPoHpENoE OF THE MONITOR. |
Washington, Dec. 5tb., 1898.
President Mckinley does not regard
himself as personal guardian Of Con-
gress, as Mr.. Cleveland did. There
fore he and almost the entire Cabinet,
together with members of their fami-
lies will go south tomorrow, to be
away from Washington eight days,
without any fear that Congress will
be guilty of anything very naughty
while they are away. His long service
in Congress makes President McKin-
ley know how to treat that body in
such manner as to keep the good
will Of its members, regardless of
party. It is always good thing to be
able to put yourself in a mans place
when you are dealing with him, equal
~ good for both parties, as it tends to
treating the other fellow as you would
like to be treated yourself. This trip
will be relaxation for President Nc
Kinley and no duty will be neglected,
as the original copy OF the treaty of
peace, signed Saturday night, cannot
possibly reach Washington before he
gets back.
Speaker Reed uses his wit without
regard to the status of those who hap
pen to be with him when he sees an
opening for it. He was the guide Of
Sir Wilfrid Laurier and a number OF
members and attaches of the Canadi-
an American Joint High Commission,
in their tour Of the capitol the day that
