OTIS RECALL REVIVED.
Report IN Washington that Brooke
Is to Succeed Him.

report IN Washington that BROOKE
Is to Succeed Him.
New York, Sept. 27.-The Times
Washington correspondent says:
Coincident with the near approach
OF Admiral Dewey the rumors about
General Otis recall have been re-
viewed. 1t is again reported that his
recall has actually been decided upon.
There has also been a rumor lately
that General Brooke was to leave
Cuba. shortly. AS it is now said that
major general is to be sent to the
Philippines, there is some disposition
to regard that as General Brooke's fu-
ture berth. The basis for all this gos-
sip seems to be the report that ADJ
miral Dewey has a poor opinion of
General Otis. This report has lately
been revived and repeated in number
of ways. 1t is generally believed the
admiral will have much influence with
the administration and his views on
the Philippines policy will be anxiously
sought. A strong impression prevails
that when he gives his opinion it will
not be favorable to General Otis. There
is to be a conference at the white house
shortly after his return, at which the
president will meet the admiral and
the Philippine commission and what
is said at that conference may result in
some alterations in the military policy
in the Philippines.

The malodoro.s Esterhazy had an
experience in London the other day
that must have affected even his call
loused feelings. He was walking along
the street between two friends when
he was recognized. A few people be-
gan to groan at him, and, attracted
by the noise, a crowd instantly sur
rounded him and the grooming and
crowding grew to such threatening
proportions that Esterhazy made for
the nearest cab. Unable to force his
way through the crowd to the cab, he
turned along the pavement in the di-
rection of Oxford circus. completely
surrounded by grooming crowd,
which only let him move forward very
slowly AT the circus the police gent
ly, but firmly, passed along" the
crowd into different directions. Ester
hazy was then able to jump into cab
and drive rapidly off

General Jarnilo, who is settling Spain $
