A commission Of Cuban merchants arrived
on the steamer and will go directly to
Washington to protest against the decree.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 6.-The question
Of transportation for troops destined for the
Philippines is worrying military authorities
greatly. Casuals are arriving here by the
hundreds. many regularly organized COM
panies are already here awaiting transpor-
tation and there are one or two regiments
on the road to this city. The steamers
Zealandia and City of Puebia are here, but
have not been rechartered, and the trans
ports Pennsylvania and Conemaugh are due
to arrive in few days, but if all of these
vessels are pressed into service the num-
Der Of men in camp at the Preside will be
reduced but little What to do with this
great body of men puzzles the local de-
partment, and 1t is believed that some Of
the old transports which have been returned
to commercial life will again be pressed into
the service OF the government.

General Joseph Wheeler only OBJ
tanned an assignment to active duty
after serious dispute with General
Otis, who wanted to sidetrack the vet
eran fighter by sending him to some
obscure post in the southern islands.
General Wheeler now declares that he
will apply for permission to return to
the United States soon unless there is
some change in the management of
affairs in the Philippines.
+"An association of natives styling
itself the Filipino Liberation society,
has applied for permission to organize
in Manila, with General Otis as the
president. The general has declined to
pledge himself in the matter, but
thought it might be possible to forward
the operations of the association.
According to private letters received
within the American lines several OF
the rebel colonels and two of Agui.
naldo's brigadiers intend to allow them
selves to be captured when the United
States troops attack Tarlac, because
they are tired of retreating. The World
correspondent has the names Of these
discontented Filipino officers, but to
publish them would betray them to the
vengeance of Aguinaldo."
