Dewey, sends the Cruiser Brook
Iyn and other Ships.

Washington, Oct. 5.-The president
directed the immediate dispatch to the
Philippines of n number of vessels of
the navy, including the cruisers Brook
lyn and New Orleans and the Nash
vile. The orders given are in line with
the expressed determination of the

Philippine insurrection at the earliest
possible time. At Admiral Dewey's ex-
tended interview with the president
Wednesday the former went into the
Philippine situation at great length, ex-
planning carefully the existing condi-
ton of affairs, and his views of the out
look. concluding with an earnest rec
ommcndaton that the Brooklyn and
some other vessels be sent at once to
the Philippines. This reinforcement
of the present fleet of the Asiatic squad
ron he urged as necessary and said
their dispatch should be directed as
early as possible.

Festival Formally OPENED.

Chicago, Oct. 5.-The formal opening
of festival week was signaled at sun
down Wednesday by the unfurlng of
banners, the fiinging out of flags, and
the flashing of thousands of lights in
the State street court of honor. This
was the beginning of the gala season,
and masses of people poured into the
downtown district at night and packed
stream against stream of humanity I'M
til there was no place in State street
where one could stand still or stem the
current of moving men, women and
children. The scene presented in the
ihoroughfare between Van Buren, and
Lake streets, above the heads of the
people. was full of brilliancy and the
glamor of art.

RepOrt Is Not Confirmed.

London, Oct. G.-Nothing important
has developed as to the Transyaal situ-
alton. The Daily Tclegraph's dispatch
announcing that the Beers had invaded
Natal and seized Laing's Mex now
seems to be without foundation. The
government has received nothing to
Justify the report, although such move
on tho part of the Beers would nat
urally cause little surprise. The Brit
strengthened by the arrival of the In
dian transports with reenforcemcnis
Of about $500 infantry, cavalry and ar
tillery, all of which will be promptly
sent to the front by train.

the River Barima, and n portion in the
interior, while Great Britain retains
all the forest country.
