Washington, June 27.-While it is
announced that the sudden return of
the president was due to the Hines
of Mrs. Mckinley, the impression is
pretty general that the condition of
affairs in the Philippines is, at least,
partly responsible for his return. A
cabinet meeting was held soon after
the Presidents return to discuss
Otis report, the contents of which
are not given out. Three great ques-
tons will be onsidered, namely,
whether to give Otis 1000 men in
stead of 81, 900; whether to procure
the additional men by a call for
volunteers, or by more energetic re-
cruiting, and third, what steps shall
be taken to neutralize the work OF
the anti-imperialists who are en-
couraging the insurgents to hold out
in hopes of congress voting to with
draw our troops.

FALSE AND MALICIOUS"
Governor Thomas, of Colorado, De-
a Ogu Interview.

DENVER, Col. May 9.-Governor Charles
s. Thomas. who had been out of the city
several days. wired Adjutant General Corbin
on his return late last night that the re-
ported interview concerning Colorado vol
unteers was false and malicious. The Gov
ernor said he told the interviewer he had
twice requested the return of the Colorado
regiment and would renew the request and
that, as the Spanish war had been termin-
ated, the volunteers should be permitted to
return if they wished. Beyond this" said
the Governor. nothing was said except an
expression Of a general nature concerning
the power of the government to call upon
the militia for service in an offensive war"
Governor Thomas to-day received the fol-
lowing dispatch from Adjutant General Cor
bin at Washington: Your telegram of April
IA TO the President in which you state that
the First Colorado Volunteers enlisted for
the Spanish war and that war having ended,
you demand that such regiment be mustered
out of service and its members returned to
their homes, has been referred to this de-
partment. In reply. the acting secretary or
war desires me to say that IL was the in
tentiOn of the department 10 return all OF
the volunteer troops in the Philippine islands
long since. but that its plans were somewhat
those islands. However. instructions have
been sent to Major General Otis to return
those regiments to the United States as
soon as transports are available, and he has
replied that the movement would commence
about May ) and that regiments will be re-
turned substantially in the order in which
they went out. The acting secretary desires
me to add that. inasmuch as the First Colo
rado Regiment was among the first 10 go
10 the Philippine islands, it will be among
the first 10 return and there is reasonable
expectation that it will be returned 10 the
United States and it's members mustered
out not later than the LIST of July.

NEARING ST. LOUIS.
The Only a Short
Distance Below the City.

ST. LOUIS, May 9.-The United States
gunboat Nashville is rapidly reaching st.
Louis. AT 5 o'clock tonight she passed St.
Genevieve, which is sixty miles below this
city, up to that time having covered seven
ty-one miles since she continued her journey
at sunrise this morning from Cape Girar-
deau. No word from the gunboat since she
passed st. Genevieve. 1t is presumed the
boat has anchored for the night several
miles north Of that point. She fired two
guns to salute the government works as she
passed st. Genevieye this evening, n at
several points along the shore where people
were massed to see her go by shots were
fired by way of salute.
According to the most accurate informa-
ton obtainable the Nashville will cast
anchor in midstream off St. Louis at 3
O'Clock Tomorrow afternoon. The St. Louis
harbor boat will drop down the river to-
morrow at 8 O'Clock with a reception COM
mittee of business men aboard and escort
the Nashville to st. Louis. When the Nash
Vile is riding at anchor here Mayor Ziegen-
helm. the city officials and the reception
committee will go aboard and tender Capt.
Maynard and his crew a hearty welcome
to st. Louis and the freedom of the town.

MOROCCO HAS SETTLED
CLAIMS OF UNITED STATES CITIZENS
FINALLY ADJUSTED.
Presence of the Cruiser Chicago at
Tungfer Probably Had the Desired
Moral Effect on the Sultan.

TANGIER, Morocco, May 9.-The claims
Of the United States against the govern
ment OF Morocco have been settled. The
United States cruiser Chicago sailed from
this port to-day to resume her voyage
around Africa.
WASHINGTON, May 9.-Oficial confir-
nation of the settlement of the claims of
American citizens against the Moorish gov
eminent reached the authorities here in a
dispatch from Rear Admiral Howison. who
was aboard the Chicago. 1t Is stated posi-
lively. however. that the Chicago was not
sent TO Tangier for the purpose. of enforcing
any demand for the payment of the claims
mentioned, but that she simply stopped
there on her cruise around Africa. The Off
Gals say that in all likelihood the United
States consul took advantage of the moral
effect of the presence of the cruiser and re-
newsd his oft-repeated request for the pay
ment of the claims, some of which have
been pending upward of four or five years.
They grow out of the practice of the native
government to grant certificates of protec-
ton" to employees of American merchants
who may be sent on trips to the interior for
their employers. In a number of cases the
government failed to afford the protection
guaranteed by the certificates, the employees
being waylaid and robbed. The consular
representative of the United States at the
Moorish capital made repeated demands for
the settlement of the claims arising out of
the failure TO protect the employees referred
to and met fair promises Of settlement
which, however, never have been kept. The
total amount Of the claims now about 70 be
settled. it is said. amounts to less than &c.,
