rotary felt from the first that there were
no grounds for the sensational statements,
but as a matter of public policy took i'm

others had no signatures.
The secretary did not make public the
name of the organization to which the

communication of the character indicated

Manila at his own urgent request. So
eager was he to get to the Philippines
that he used his friends in Washington
to secure for him the assignment. As
an officer of the navy he has a brilliant
record. He has been in the service ever
since 1871 and has filed numerous posts
afloat and ashore. During the Spanish
