VAN WICK TO RESIGN.

NEW YORK, August 23.-Robert \
Van Wyck wants to resign his position
as Chief Executive of Greater New
York, and has already indicated his de-
sires to the leaders of Tammany. He
has an ambition to go on the Supreme
bench, and his plan is to seek election
ton Shortly after his election, Van
Wyck wanted to resign for the same
purpose, but the fear that Tammany
could not elect his successor kept him
in office. Now he points out the fact
that if elected TO the bench he will
hold the Mayoralty until the next city
election. Dick Croker and the other
Tammany leaders oppose his determi-
nation, but will probably yield to his
wishes.

STRIKE THREATENED.

PHILADELPHIA, August 24.-The
employees at Cramps shipbuilding
yards have decided to present to the
firm remonstrance against the recent
discharges in various departments. On
next Sunday eight committeeman, rep
resenting the four local lodges of the
International Association of Machin-
lists, which has headquarters in Chi
cago. will meet to draft resolutions.
One OF Cramps machinists said that
these resolutions will contain demands
which the men believe the firm will re-
ject. The remonstrance will be pre-
scented to the company on Monday,
and if satisfactory reply is not re-
ceived Immediately a strike will follow
on Tuesday. The men say that all the
machinists, blacksmiths and boilerma-
kers, numbering several hundred, will
stop work if the Cramps do not ac-
cede to their demands.

CHINESE MUST co.
Otis Excludes Them
From the Philippines.
Inform alton Rec eiVed Through
Diplomatic ChanneiS-No Report
on the Subject Received.

WASHINGTON, August 23-The
| State Department has been informed
| through diplomatic channel that Cen
| eral Otis has applied the Chinese ex-
| clusion laws TO the Philippines. The
| information was a surprise TO the au-
thorities here, both state and military.
as the matter has been under consid-
Grafton for some time and it was not
| known that General Otis had put the
exclusion laws into force.
The first intimation in that direction
came in a dispatch received a few
days ago from the Chinese Consul at
Manila, telling the Chinese legation
here that the exclusion laws against
the Chinese had been applied to the
Philippines. The dispatch was brought
TO the attention of the State Depart
ment and inquiry made as to how the
action was brought about as the Chi
nese Government has been solicitous
since American military control was
established in the Philippines that the
not be extended over these islands. The
State Department knows nothing of
such an extension and made inquiries
of the War Department The military
authorities, however, were equally
without information as to General
Otis course in this particular.
Accordingly the Chinese officials
were advised that any action taken by
General Otis in applying the exclusion
laws to the Philippines was not the re-
suit of instructions sent from here, but
was doubtless due to the exercise of
his authority as Governor General of
the Philippines. What further step
the Chinese authorities will take has
not been determined, as Minister WI
Ting Fang is out of the city for few
days. There is little doubt, however,
that he will seek to have General Otis
order held in allegiance until the au
thOrities here pass upon the general
question which has been under cOnSid
Grafton between the two Governments.

Captain Barker to Be Ordered to Duty
at Washington.
WASHINGTON, August 24.-No
word has come from Admiral Sampson
as to when he desires to be relieved
of the command of the North Atlantic
squadron. Immediately upon the re-
turn of the Chicago to New York on
October Rear Admiral Howison will
be relieved to await retirement.
Captain A. S. Barker, who succeed
ed Admiral Dewey as COMMANDMENTS
chief of the Asiatic station, will be
ordered to duty in Washington. Cap
tain p. H. Cooper, commanding the
Chicago, may be detached and given
shore duty.
Leave will also be given to Captain
3. p. LambertOn, commanding the
Olympia, and to other officers of Adj
miral Dewey's flagship.
Captain r. r. Chadwick, command
ing the New York, will probably re-
main in command of that vessel until
Admiral Sampson is relieved. Captain
Sigsbee of the Texas will also be
shortly relieved.
Captain G. ]. Barclay, commanding
the monitor Amplitude. will be de-
tached within few weeks.

FIGHTING CUBANS
Five Men Killed and Ten
Wounded.
General Wood Does Not Anticipate That
Serious Disturbances VIII
Result.

SANTIAGO. Cuba, August 24-Five
| men are dead and ten wounded as a
| result of fight Tuesday night between
gendarmes and disappointed Cuban
soldiers at Cuevitas. three miles from
Santiago, where the payment of the
Cuban troops is progressing. Five
thousand Cubans had gathered there
to receive pay and after three days on
ly so had been paid. Thousands who
had been disappointed at other points
had come to Cuevitas as the last place
of payment in the province.
The imperfect list causes great dis
satisfaction, and rumor circulated
yesterday that the paymasters would
leave today alarmed the men who had
not been paid. They began to collect
in groups and to show their annoyance
Finally their threats became serious.
Captain Baliat, with twenty gend-
armes, was present to preserve order
among the applicants, and the United
States troops protected Colonel Moale
the officer having charge of the pay
ments. Suddenly, Captain Baliat who
was mounted, was surrounded by a
mob, struck by stones and bottles and
shot in the arm. His men promptly
fired a volley into the mob, three per-
sons being instantly killed and thir-
teen wounded, two of whom died this
morning.
Colonel Moale's guard promptly sur
rounded the money office, but took no
part in the fighting. For few min
utes there was a lively conflict car
bines and machetes being used freely.
Captain Baliat was the only gendarme
wounded. The dead were colored Gu
ban soldiers.
This morning payment was resumed
under a heavy guard. There are ru-
mOrs that a force is being organized
to attack the pay office, but these are
probably unfOunded.
General Castillo, Civil Governor of
Santiago de Cuba, was at Cuevitas at
the time and soon restored order.
There is no doubt that the inaccur-
ate list will cause a great deal of hard
ship. Many veterans have vainly fol-
lowed the United States Commissioners
for six weeks, only to find that their
are not listed.
General Leonard Wood, Military
Governor, does not, however, antici-
pate serious trouble. -
HAVANA, August 24.-General
Brooke has virtually decided not to
make any payment to Cuban troops on
the basis of additional rolls. The first
payments brought to light such an
of thievery and attempted
that he has ceased to cOnsid-
er the question of distributing what is
left of the 100000 in supplementary
payments. The sum now left in his
hands he will probably use to assist
wounded and deserving officers, who,
under the original arrangement, were
to receive nothing.

Emperor William Refuses to Have
Them Vacate.
BERLIN, August 24.-It is learned
authoritatively that Emperor William
has refused to accept the Cabinets res
ignation Later, however, a partial re-
organization of the Ministry will be
made. The position of DR.. Won MIGUEL.
the Vice President of the Council of
Ministers and Prussian Minister of FL
nance. is as strong as ever, and this
shows the improbability of dissolution.
The Emperor despite the recent events
which greatly affect his estimation OF
the Conservative members Of the Cab
met, is unwilling to have a complete
rupture with the Conservatives. The
political alliance which the FreiSinnige
leaders and press offers him seems to
be unacceptable. Another session OF
the Prussian Crown Council will be
held soon, at which the wish of Prince
Hohenlohe, the Imperial Chancellor.
for a dissolution will be discussed. 1t
is regarded as doubtful that Prince Ho-
henlohe will make this matter a Cabi-
net question.
