Sailing Of the Thirty-Ninth.

Washington, Oct. 5.-Some objec-
ton has been raised to sending the
Thirty.ninth regiment from Portland,
ON the ground that if this regiment
should go from Portland, the people
there would insist that others could
also be sent from that city. Some
army officers are opposed to Portland
being chosen, but several members of
the administration think that the bust.
ness of the United States should be
distributed at the various ports upon
the coast, and that the Columbia river
should not be ignored. 1t is probable
that President Mckinley and Secretary
Root will determine where the regi.
ment shall embark.

~ Resume Farming.

Manila, Oct. 1.-THE archbishop OF
Manila notified General Otis that a
plot was ON foot to burn the residences
of the encouragement and the arch
bishop, together with several govern
ment buildings and banks, but the plot
failed to materialize, possibly because
OF display OF force.
The first reports regarding the affair
at Paranaque last night appear to have
been much exaggerated. The facts are
that a small band OF insurgents, follow.
ing the bay road, poured volley into
the village, and later another into Los
Pinos, with the result that two or
three houses were burned. The crack.
ling of the bamboo caused it to be 70.
ported in Manila that there had been
much shooting.
The United States transport Warren,
from San Francisco, with 1920 re.
cruits, has arrived.

The expedition sent to the Orani
river, under the command of Captain
Cornwell, to recover the sunken gum
boat Urdaneta, returned to Cavite yes.
terday with the hull OF the boat, after
bombarding Orani and landing a force.
Captain Cornwell brought one prisoner.
There were no casualties.
Agunialdo according to report
brought to Manila today by Domin'
lean friar from the north, has issued or.
ders to the Filipino soldiers in the
northern provinces to return to theiE
towns and to resume farming. This
story lacks confirmation, but the rumor
may be in accordance with Aguinaldo's
policy of keeping the country as pro.
ductive as possible by using his men in
alternate shifts on the farms or under
arms.
Dagupan and San Fernando and Deli.
cincet, which are under the guns of the
United States warships, are supposed
to be evacuated. 1t is alleged that the
evacuation order calls upon the male
inhabitants to be orderly in case of the
arrival OF the American troops, and ex.
press the hope that the Americans will
protect the towns.

GIFT OF the NATION.


by Congress.
Washington, Oct. 5.-The culmina.
ton OF Admiral Dewey's triumphal
homecoming was reached today in the
shadow OF the dome of the national
capitol. Here he received from the
hands of the president the magnificent
jeweled sword voted by congress in
commemoration of the victory of Manila
bay. This was the official reason for
the ceremony. But mere official sane.
ton could never have thrown into the
demonstration the fervor of enthusiasm
that was melted out to the admiral as
he appeared before the vast audience,
composed not only of all Of the highest
officials in the land, but of spectators
drawn from every quarter of the Uni
ted States.
The battle of Manila bay was not
forgotten, but it might be said to have
been relegated almost to second place
in the desire to do honor to the man
who had proved himself as great after
victory as before it, and who had shown
in the long and trying months that fol.
lowed his triumph the qualities of q
statesman and wise administrator as
we'll as those of the fighting leader of
victorious fleet.
Secretary Long made a lengthy pre-
sentation speech, reviewing the battle
and the action of congress. At its con-
clusion he passed the sword to Presi.
dent Mckinley. The latter rose and
faced the admiral. Dewey was visibly
affected and brushed his gloved hand
across his eyes before standing at at.
tention. The president said:
admiral Dewey: From your en-.
trance into the harbor of New York
with your gallant crew and valiant ship
the demonstrations which have every.
where greeted you reveal the public
esteem of your heroic actions and the
fullness of love III which you are held
by your country. The voice of the ma.
ton is lifted in praise and gratitude
for the distinguished and memorable
services you have rendered the country,
and all the people give you affectionste
welcome home, in which l join with
all my heart. Your victory exalted
American valor and extended Ameri-
can authority. There is no flaw in
your victory; there will be no faltering
in maintaining it. (Great applause. J
1t gives me extreme pleasure and great
honor in behalf of all the people to
hand you this sword, the gift of the
nation, voted by the congress of the
United States"
The president handed the admiral
the sword with deep bow end there
was a roar of applause as Dewey re-
ceived it. The crowd was hushed as
he turned to reply. He said:
~ thank you, Mr.. President, for
this great honor you have conferred
upon me. / thank the congress for
what it has done. l thank the secre-
tary of the navy for his gracious words.
l thank my countrymen for this
beautiful gilt, which shall be All heir
loom in my family forever, as an evi.
dence that republics are not ungrateful,
and l thank you, Mr.. Chairman, and
gentlemen of the committee, for the
gracious, cordial and kindly welcome
which you have given me to my home"
The band played "The Star Spangled
Banner" and then Cardinal Gibbons
pronounced the benediction.
