Washington, July ls.--Ihs cabinet
meeting today was long and the members
after 1t adjourned, were more reticont
than usual.
Secretaries Gage, Wilson. Alger and
Attorney General Griggs are out Of the
city. There was some discussion Of the

paper correspondents from Manila via
Hong Kong.

Round Robin matter to drop. Off ,ially
the matter will be ignored and General
Otis will be allowed to treat it as he may
deem best.
The advices which the President re-
ceived from Manila yesterday and which
have given SO much comfort and encour-

to. whom they were communicated, had
a bearing rather on the political than on
the military situntion.
