The Great Admiral Leaves the
 Scene of His TriumphS.
HIS COUNTRIES GRATITUDE
He Hopes Will Not Be Too Demon SfrafiVc-The Conquest of inc Philip pines Near Its fnd-Whaf Dewey Would do if He Were Younger and Had Political Am- bififion.

Manila, May 2O.-The cruiser Olym- pia with Admiral Dewey on board left here on the homeward journey to the United States at 4 o'clock this after noon. As she steamed away, the Or egcn, the Baltimore and the Concord fired the admiral's salute. At the first shot the band on the flagship played a lively air and the crew crowded the decks and gave thunder ous cheers.
 Admiral Dewey sat cn the deck of the Olympia and received the adieus of friends during the most of the day. The launch of General Otis was first to arrive alongside the cruiser at o'clock this morning, and afterwards the admiral landed and called upon the major-generaI and the United States Philippines commission.
 Admiral Dewey is enthusiastic over his home going but when mention was made of the welcome to be ex- tended he said hs appreciated the friendship of his countrymen deeply, but he hcred they would not be too demCnstrative. He intends to go di rectly to his hcne at Montpelier, Yer mont, and live there. On it being said that the people wanted him to go home by San Francisco and across the continent, the admiral replied: of I were twenty years younger and had political ambitions I would not miss the chance"
 Speaking Of the situation here, Ad- miral Dewey said: II believe we are going to pieces. The sending of tue third commission shows this
 THE CONQUEROR1S ROUTE.
 Washington, May 2O.- Admiral Dewey cables the navy department that he has sailed with the Olympia from Manila to Hong Kong. So far the department knows nothing except in a most general way of the itinersry of Admiral Dewey's cruise from Manila to New York. He has reported simply that he will come by the Suez route and has not indicated officially how long he will take in making the trip.
 The understanding at the navy de- partment is that the admiral will spend about two weeks at HCng Kong, for the Olympia is to be docked and her dralb war paint must be covereI with white paint. In the absence of other information it is assumed that tue Olympia from Hong Kong will follow the usual course of warships coming home by the way of the Suez canal. They will touch first after Hong Kong at Singapore, then at Alden, then at the entrance of the Red sea to take on sailors to fire the boilers in the hot climate.
 Stops will be made of necessity at Suez and Port Said. It is assumed that Malta will be touched and per- haps Genoa or Nice, before reaching Gibraltar. The time that should be occupied by such trip is variously estimated by naval officers, but the voyage is about seventy days from tn~ day. However, the public will soon be able to get more accurate knowl- edge of the itinerary, for within a few days the navy department will be in possession of a schedule of the ships movements

AGUINALDO'S PLAY.
Either 10 Gather His Strength
 or to Impress His People.
The War Department Having The FuIi- est Confidence in General OfiS is Leaving inc Final Disposition of Philippines InsurreCfiOn 10 Him.

Washington, May 20.-A cable from General Otis today indicates to the war department that the commission which is now in Manila will accomp- fish nothing because it has nc au- thority tcl negotiate for actual peace. The importance of the visit of the commission is the evident desire of the Filipinos to end hostilities. There is an impression also that Aguinaldcl is playing for time in his request.
 Nc instructions or suggestions will be sent to the officials by the depart ment General Otis is confident that he has the matter well in hand and is better able to judge what is best to do. From the manner in which General Otis has handed the past negotiations with the F'ilipinos there is little doubt armistice asked.
 The position of the American troops in the Philippines is such as to render it impossible to inflict damage to the Filipincs without serious loss to cur forces. The general being aware of the feeling Of the people as shown by the press dispatches, no doubt believes that the Filipino rebellion is crumb- ling and that the object of Aguinaldo and the other leaders in requesting an armistice is to reorganize theirt shattered forces or to impress the Fill ipino people with evidence of an inn pcrtance which they do not possess,
 
 HAVE NOTHING TO OFFER.
 Manila, May 2O-Genaral Gregorio del Pilar commander of the insurgent forces in front of General Lawtons' di- yisiCn; Col. Alberto Barreto, judge ad- vocate; Major Zelcita of Aguinaldo cabinet, the commissioners appointed to co-operatie with Senors FlorintinO Torres, Pablo Campo and Teodoro YancO Of Manila for the purpose of ne- gCtiai.Eg the terms of peace with the American commissioners, reached Ma nila by a special train from Malolcs at SIS o'clock this. morning. The party was met by Lieutenant-Col Barry, ad- jutsnt-general, and conducted from the train to a launch at Capitan and taken to the palace at Calacocn, and after breakfast were driven through the city to Ayuntamiente. Tie party was closeted with General Otis for more than an hour, but the interview was decidedly unsatisfactory, the com mission having nothing definite to propose and being unempowered to negotiate terms. The commissioners brought a communication direct from Aguinaldo asking for an armistice pending a decision of the Filipino ccn- gress as to what policy should be adopted. As before, General Otis re- fused to entertain the propositions. The commissioners after leaving the city hall accepted an invitation to visit the Oregon and other vessels of the American fleet in the bay and they were also granted permission to see their families.
