ROOSEVELT MUSTERED IN.
Took the Oath as Lieutenant Colonel
of United states Volunteers
Yesterday.

Washington, May 6.-Assstant Secretary
of the Navy Roosevelt was sworn in to-
day as lieutenant colonel of the United
States volunteers, to serve with the regi-
ment of mounted riilemen to be made up
mainly of plainsmen. rough riders. etc.
The ceremony occurred in the Office of Adj
jutart General Corbn, number of leading
army officers. senators and representatives
being present. Lieutenant Colonel Roose-
Welt was warmly congratulated on his en-
trance upon military life. He had previ-
ously been subjected to rigid physical
examination by the surgeon general of the
army. and has passed it successfully The
oaths was administered by General Corbin.
Colonel Roosevelt has placed his resig-
nation as assistant secretary of the navy
in the hands of Secretary Long. 1t has not
yet been accepted, however, and Mr.. Roose-
Welt will continue as assistant to the secre-
tary OF the navy for some days yet. when
he will join his regiment at San Antonio.
Colonel Roosevelts Office was crowded to
overlooking about noon to-day with an as
semblage of cowboys, plainsmen, college
students and ex-policemen of the New
York force who are among those to join

Dewey Has Encountered I'm
expected Resistance.
London, May If Spain possessed as
many squadrons as rumor credits her with
she would be in good way. To-day
rumors talk of a squadron off California.
another going to the relief of Manila. and
of a third going to Porto Rico.
Anxiety over the absence of news from
Commodore Dewey was clearly reflected
I'm the Hobbies of the house of commons last
evening. where the general subject of con-
versation was the uncertainty as to Manila.
Sinister speculations were indulged in, and
1t was pointed out that there were trading
steamers under the British flag in Manila
bay on Sunday.
As apparently none of them left after the
naval battle. it looks though they APP
pretended danger in passing out by Cor
regidor island. They can hardly be await
ing cargoes, IL the town has been bonn
barded. while there would be plenty of for
eigners. in that event, anxious to embark.
1t Is not believed that Commodore Dewey
has met with disaster, but IL is the general
opinion that he has encountered unexpected
Resistance. and is not in a position to spare
a vessel TO carry dispatches. Another sug-
gestive explanation is that Commodore
Dewey has not succeeded in obtaining con-
troll cf the land telegraph lines TO Bolinao,
connecting Manila with the Hong Kong ca
bies.

ADMINISTRATION is UNEASY.
Concerned Over the Attitude of the
Senate on the War Revenue
Mnaauro

Washington May 6.-Besides the war sit
uation in its general aspect. there was
some discussion at the cabinet meeting to-
day of the relative merits of persons seek
ing brigadier generalships and other COM
missions in the army. The president ex-
pressed himself pronouncedly as opposed to
the appointment to such responsible posi-
tions of those who have had no military
experience.
One feature of the session was discus
sion of the attitude Of the senate in provid-
Ing the ''sinews of war; for defraying the
expenditures of the war. The president has
received positive Information that the SEN
ate committee on finance. which is still
struggling with the war revenue bill, will
report that measure with the bond feature
eliminated.
This fact is causing the administration
great uneasiness and embarrassment, and
the statement made that the possibility of
adverse action on the full body of the
senate is source of much anxiety. The
president laid before the cabinet the in
formation he had as to what is to be
looked for from the senate. and, while not
expressing absolute confidence in favor
able action by the senate with the bond
feature reincorporated, expressed the hope
thai there would be satisfactory major
ity for the bond provision.
Should it not become a part of the law.
many urgent preparations for the war will
have to be held back. The money to be
secured from bond sales, it is reported, Is
needed imperatively for the execution Of
the plans mapped out. and adverse action
by the senate would be likely to interfere
unless the money is otherwise provided and
by as speedy method as the issuance Of
bonds.
The administration is anxious to impress
this fact upon the congress, in order that
ample revenues may be at hand for a
vigorous prosecution of the war.
There was considerable qualification evil
dent at the session at the general war out
look. There was a strong belief that the
Spanish fleet, instead of sailing across the
seas to intercept the Oregon or to come
over into the waters nearer home to be-
gin operations. would be found eventually
to be now progressing for some point closer
its own possessions on the other side of
the ocean. While there is great reticence
on the part of all the members of the ad-
ministration on the subject. there is ex-
celent authority for the statement that the
instructions of Admiral Sampson give him
great latitude.

TO SUCCEED ROOSEVELT.
House Naval Affairs Committee Urges
the Appointment of Rear Adj
mir0l Walker.

mirnl Walker.
Washington, May 6.-Chairman Boutelle
of the house naval affairs committee. called
upon the president this afternoon to urge
the appointment of Rear Admiral John c.
Walker. retired, as assistant secretary OF
the navy to succeed Theodore Roosevelt
In his representations, Chairman Boutele
informed the president that his committee
was unanimous in urging upon him the
great desirablity. at this time Of special
cxigency, of availing himself of the ex-
ceptional experience and ability of Admiral
Walker He cited to the president the re-
markable service rendered by Assistant
Secretary Fox during the administration of
President Lincoln, which, he said. was due
largely to Mr.. Fox's previous experience as
an officer of the navy.
He impressed upon the president the feel
ing of the committee that. at this time, the
notable professional. diplomatic and de-
partmental knowledge Of Admiral Walker
would prove invaluable to the country.
While the provision of law. enacted when
Mr. Soley was made assistant secretary of
the navy required that the appointment
be made from civil life. congress could
readily modify it in order that the gov
ernment might be able to utilize the waltz
able services Of one of its most distinguish
ed officers Mr.. Boutele stated that his
action was taken entirely without the
knowledge of Admiral Walker. and solely
with . view to the public interest at this
time when experience in such an important
position as that of assistant secretary of
the navy was unusually desirable.

what he did. that is. to sail into the bay

what he did. that is. to sail into the bay
as on the high seas.
The special then goes on. saying that he
engaged the Spanish squadron with the
result as told. But it appears that during
the fight the Spanish authorities set to
work reconstructing the wires under the
fire Of the American warships. The sew
cred wires were patched SO quickly that.
before the fight was over, no ships could
move any more in the bay without the
greatest danger of being blown up.
Now. says the special to La Presse. this
startling piece of news reached Madrid in
the form of a cipher dispatch from Hong
Kong. where it was discreetly circulated
among the leaders of the Spanish groups.
The posting of this news throughout the
city created the most intense feeling among
both French and English, who fully sympa-
thize with the United States. The dis
patch seemed to be the only explanation
of that five days silence from Dewey's
squadron.

HOW HELEN GOULD Will HELP
She Will Recruit, Mount and Send to
Cuba Four Companies of
Cavalry.

New York. May Ga short time ago Miss
Helen Gould sent her check for 100000 to
President Mckinley to be used as he deem
ed proper in the war, and intimated IN the
letter which accompanied it that she would
like to double the amount. This check was
returned by the president because. under
the law. he had no power to accept 1t.
Miss Gould was disappointed by the re-
suit attending her patriotic offering, but
she was not discouraged. She consulted
Mrs Ledyard Stevens. of this city. and was
advised by her to expend the money in
sending soldiers to Cuba.

were mustered in yesterday.
Callers to-day consisted of a body of
thirty-one, who will be sent forward to San
Antonio to join the main body of this regi-
