Dolphin When the dispatchboat was a
mile away II began firing an admiral
salute. and the Olympia replied with
rear -admirals salute Of thirteen guns.
The Dolphin anchored near the Olym-
pia. and Rear-Admiral Sampson and
his stan went on board. They were re-
ceived by Admiral Dewey. Captain Lam
bertcn. Lieutenant Brumley, and the offi-
GERS Of the deck. the full marine guard
and band being paraded. The officers
went to the Admirars cabin. Rear-Ad-
miral Sampson remained on board for
more than an hour
Rear-Admlral Sampson had first learn
cd OF Admiral Dewey's arrival at the
Brooklyn novy-yard. where he went
about 10 o'clock to see Rear-Admiral
Philip. Soon after Rear-Admiral Samp-
son had gone, Rear-Admiral Philip vOy-
aged down the bay in the Narkeeta and
paid an official call attended by Com
mander J. ID. j. Kelley. The Rear-Ad-
mirals salute was not fired in this case,
by request Of Rear-Admiral Philip. Adj
miral Dewey received these official visits
in undress uniform.
FEVER ON THE OLYMPIA.

according to DR.. Percy. the ships sur

with this exception the sailors and ma
rines are well. DIR. Percy Is unable TO
account for the presence of typhoid on
the ship. The cases are not numerous
or serious enough to cause him alarm,
and 1t Is probable that the sick men
will be taken ashore to a hospital to-
morrow.
George Bidwell, collector Of the port;
Postmaster Van Colt, and several Gus
toms officials visited the Admiral and
were personally conducted around the
ship by him.
All day tugs and excursion steamers
came up near the Olympia and took a
look at her.

with us as to learn that we propose 10
treat them well--where they have seen
that we mean what we say, there IS no
trouble they stand by us all the time.
All OF them will learn this in time. All
of them will be gotten from under the
influence Of Aguinaldo. or. rather, those
people who are behind Aguinaldo, who, as
/ said before. is a mere tool"
do | think that the Filipinos are fit
for self-gOvernment?'
"Well. no, not just now. They proba-

a very queer people-a very queer mix
ture. Many of them are quite civilized
and good people. but do not think they
are fit for self-government just yet, but

time that II is my candid opinion that
they are more fit for it than the Cubans;
that they are a better people than the
Cubans in every way.
II do wish. however, that the whole
business was settled and 1 think that
