SINKING OF THE CHARLEsToN.
The Culgoa Reports the Disappear
ance OF the Cruiser.

All doubt as to the fate of the cruiser
Charleston was dispclled today by the re-
ceipt by Secretary Long Of a cable mes
sage from Captain Leutze, at Cavite, P. l..
as follows:
''Culgoa reports Charleston disappeared
The Culgoa was recently dispatched from
Manila by Admiral Watson with men and
wrecking apparatus to the scene Of the ac-
cident to the Charleston on Guinapak
rocks, on the northern coast Of the Island
of Luzon, for the purpose Of saving that
vessel If possible, or at least saving as
much of her equipment could be Sc
cured, including, if possible, some OF the
guns of her main battery. According TO
the last previous report, the Charleston
was lying upon rocky ledge entirely sub
merged from stern to smokestack, pound
ing her bottom in the heavy seas that
washed over her. Captain Leutze's cable
gram indicates that the mission Of tho
Culgoa was unsuccessful, and that the
Charleston had disappeared. II is not yet
known whether she slipped off her rocky
bed into the deep or whether she hoated
off the ledge and drifted away. The most
reasonable supposition. however, is that
she sank into .he sea, which is reported 10
be very deep in that region.

COMING OF GEN. WOOD.
The President VIII Consult Him Upon
Cuban Affairs.

The War Department has been advised
that the transport Mcpherson sailed today
from Santiago for New York with Gen.
Leonard Wood aboard. The officials of
the War Department, from the Secretary
down, either refuse to make any statement
as to the meaning of this visit of Gen.
Wood to Washington at this time or pro-
TESS ignorance upon the subject. 1t is
beyond question, however, that it is the
purpose of the President to advise with
Gen. Wood upon Cuban affairs, in order to
strengthen his hands in dealing with that
subject before Congress. Also 1t Is not to
be doubted that the name of the general
has been under consideration in connection
with the clVli administration OF the affairs
of the whole part of Cuba, when the
change Is made from military to a civil
form of government.
This is not necessarily an indication that
he has been selected for such a post, for 1t
is equally true that the names of Gen. Lud
low and Of Gen. Wilson have also been con-
sidercd. Gen. Ludlow has made q most
agreeable impression upon the admnistra-
ton through-th tact he exhibited In gov
ernlnS Havana, the most restless and un-
ruiy community in Cuba. The manner in
which he dealt with the formidable upris-
ing OF the iaborinS classes, preventing
general strike and at the same time doing
justice to the laborers and their employers
was a special matter of qualification to the
President He preceded Gen. Wood in his
Journey to Washington and now it appears
likely that Gen. Wilson will also be invited
to come to the capital, 30 that the Presi-
dent will be personally acquainted with the
qualifications of the three oficers who
have been looked upon as making up the
limit OF choice in the Cuban civil governor
ship. Gen. Wilson differs from the others
In the fact that he is a volunteer officer
pure and simple, while Gems. Ludlow and
Wood, though holding high commissions in

the regular army. That point might have
weight In case there was disposition to
avoid the appearance of the continuance of
tion of Cuba, for it3Would be easy to dis
charge Wilson entirely from the military
establishment before appointing him to a
civil Office.
The selection has not yet been made, and
Gen. Woods visit cannot be regarded as
conclusive upon that point, though that
view Is taken at Santiago

WILSON, LEE AND WHEELER.

May Be Appointed Brigadier Generals
and Retired.
There is now one vacancy in the list OF
brigadier generals OF the regular army. and
another will be created In January by the
statutory retirement of Brigadier General
Thomas NJ. Anderson. The existing vacan-
cy has been left open to enable the Presi-
dent to advance one or more officers of the
army in recognition Of specially meritor1ous
services during the Spanish war and the
Filipino insurrection. There Is a we'll
grounded impression that 1t Is the purpose
of the President to bestow recognition of
this character upon Brigadier Generals
James F. Wilson, Fftzhugh Lee and Joseph
Wheeler. officers of the volunteer army
who have distinguished themselves recently
In the military service of the government.
Generals Wilson and Lee are now in COM
mand of military departments in Cuba and
General Wheeler commands the brigade in
General MacArthurs division formerly
commanded by Brigadier General Funston.
The proposed plan is for the appointment
Of these volunteer officers as brigadier
generals in the regular establishment, and
their Immediate retirement. Such action
is clearly within the prerogatIve of the
chief executive, The personal popularity
OF the three officers in question will un-
doubtedly insure the prompt confirmation
of their nominations by the Senate. In
case of their appointment and retirement
the three gentlemen will enjoy liberal
pension for the remainder of their Syes
The selections of Generals Lee and Wheeler
for this distinction will undoubtedly be
most gratifying TO the people of the south.
and will be accepted generally as another
Indication of the Presidents desire to re-
move all sectional feeling growing out of
the war of the rebellion. The retirement
of Generals Wilson, Lee and Wheeler will
leave vacancies in the grade of brigadier
general, which, II is said, the President
is disposed to fill by the permanent ap-
pointment Of Generals Lawton and Mac
Arthur. and possibly General Young now
serving valiantly in the Philippines

CALLED AGUINALDO GENERAL
GEN. Anderson Says This Was Com.
mon Form of Salute.

CHICAGO, November 2i.-Gen. Thomas
NJ. Anderson, commander of the Depart
ment of the Lakes speaking of the address
issued by the Filipino junta at Hong Kong,
admitted that he had addressed Aguinaldo
as commanding general, Philippine
forces" and asked the assistance of Agui-
naldo against The common enemy"
Gen. Anderson said:
1T was a common form of salutation
used by all generals commanding United
States troops during correspondence with
the Philippine leader. All this correspon-
dence is on record. l praised Aguinaldo for
his bravery in fighting the common enemy
in the same letter in which l stated my in
ability to recognize his civil authority"
The entire correspondence of Gen. Ander-
son, as well as the correspondence of Gen.
Merritt, with Aguinaldo is printed in the
message of the President TO the Senate CIV
ing details of the treaty with Spain.

TO PROMOTE SHAFTER.
The President Wants to Make Him a
Major General.

The President will ask the incoming Con-
gress to pass an act retaining General
Shafter with the rank of major general in
the regular army. He has already been
retired with the rank of brigadier general,
but that is no more than is given to most
of the veteran colonels of the army and
the President and Secretary Root feel that
some substantial reward like that proposed
Is due the leader of the veteran United
States forces at Santiago. This purpose
OF the President is the explanation of the
retention OF Gen. Shafter in the volunteer
service up to this time. 1t being felt that
his chances would be frightened by his re-
tention in the active army in some manner
until Congress has an opportunity to act
