The wool eating habit appears to be growing fn all sheep sections and is especially noticeable in celd weather. 1t is also particularly strong with lambs.

HONG KONG, February 22.-Aguinaldo

ton of the Americans while lamenting
the hostlities which, he says, he tried to

ing. humiliating concessions and tolerating
insults and outrages of the army of oc-

He adds that he is prepared to sacrifice
everything to maintain the Integrity of

intentions, and complains that he has been
treated as rebel because l defended the
national interests instead of becoming the
tool of the American preposterous preten-
sions."
The rebel leader further alleges that the
country is unanimous in his support; that
the people will perish rather than accept
the odious American dominion" and alleg-
ing that even the corrupt Spanish domin-
ion is preferable"
The Philippine commission IS considered
by Aguinaldo TO be farce and Otis Den

IN no danger of losing his commission as a

A peculiar feature of the case is that Ad-

restoration to thu navy required a special

Regardless of their views on the contro-

crowd had assembled at the railroad sta
ton. When the general alighted from the
train he spent twenty minutes in embrace
ing old and new friends, and then mounted
n horse and proceeded to the city. The
streets leading from the station TO the

with their staffs; Gen. Maxine Gomez with
an escort carrying his flag; junta clubs

The procession passed under many tri-
umphal arches, with patriotic inscriptions,
and numberless flags and banners waved
from the houses. Women in the balconies
OF the houses threw flowers at Gen. Gomez,
who gallantly kissed his hand to them
Gen. Gomez reviewed the American
troops from the palace, where he was en-
tertained, and afterward dined with CITY

SCHLEYS PLACEiN iNTHE NAVY
Failure to Confirm His Nomination May
Jeopardiss It.

The friends of Rear Admiral Schley are
somewhat exercised over the Senate's de-
lay In acting upon his nonldnation to the
grade of rear admiral, for the reason that
failure to act before adjournment may
jeopardize his position in the navy. 1t ap-
pears that his nomina ton went to the Sem
ate together with the nominations of sew
eral other officers of the navy for promo
ton to subordinate grades. These nomina-
tions We're promotions resulting from the
promotions of Admirals Sampson and
Schley. While the nominations of those
two officers still remain unacted upon, the
majority of the other nominations have
been confirmed. In the list of combinations
is the nomination of Capt. +. j. Higgin-
son, TO be commodore, vice Commodore
Schley.''
me situation is, therefore, presented of
Schleys place in the list of commodores be-
ing niied by Capt. Higginson and his own
nomination to the grade of rear admiral
being held up. Although there is consider
ahie dlnerence of opinion on the subject,
the impI ession prevails generally among
naval ofhcers that the rejection of Schleys
nomination to the grade of rear admiral
might result in his being dropped from the
navy; inasmuch as the list of cemmoGores
