1t is difficult to understand the uprising

resulted in its overthrow. Had it taken

cause it was not done, they complained
OF this week because 1t was done, or, as
they alleged, over done. According to the
Paris dispatch to the New York Herald
the Republicans were angry with Dapuy
for his last Sunday performance because
they thought he had tried to create an
impression that the President could not
even go TO horse race without an army

that he will under no conditions accept

Gen. Lawton seems to have met with
more vigorous resistance In his last bat.
Ae with the Filipinos than in any of his
previous engagements, and the American
osses appear to have been greater than
,yer before. The battle took place appar-
sntly close to Cavite. which is only about
ten or twelve miles from Manila. There
has been genersal impression that the
Insurgents had been cleared out from the
vicinity of Manila, but none Of the re-
cent encounters have been many miles
away from the city, which would seem
to indicate that we had made very little
progress in permanently clearing the
country of Aguipaido's troops. The truth
probably is that for lack of men to gar
rison them We have had to abandon many
Of the advanced positions that we havs
taken, with the consequence that the in
gurgents have swarmed back again. More
soldiers would seem to be needed If we
are to paoify the country speedily.

MORE TROOPS NEEDED.
Very Little Headway Yet Made In SUPP
pressing the Filipino Rebellion.

Washington Special to the Boston Giobe.)
II tie statements OF military officers
who ought to know are TO be relied upon,
and there is no reason to doubt the accu-
raoy of their information, our troops in
the Philippines are only few miles from
Manila.
This news Will doubtless come as a
startling surprise to the readers Of The
Globe. They have heard 90 much OF the
steady progress made by our army. the
desperate engagements with the enemy
and the aggressive campaign which was
to be carried on, that to learn now that
we have only succeeded In advancing o
few miles beyond the walls Of Manila viii
come as a shock.
Yet, as matter of fact. we have made
very little progress. We have practically
made no Roadway In suppressing the
revolution, and at the present time the
Fiiipinos are lowering around our troops,
almost within signal sight of Manila.
These facts are presented not as a
criticism in any way of the men or OIL
GERS now engaged inEcarrying ON the cam
paign. Everybody agrees that the men
have fought with all the couarge and in
telligsnce which has always distinguished
the American army IN the field, and their
officers have displayed courage equally
as remarkable, and have shown them-
selves possessed of military abilities of
to highest order.
But Gen. Otis cannot accomplish i'm
possibilities. With the force at his hand
command he cannot hope to put down
the rebellion. He needs more men. Un-
til the Washington administration fur

Heat is making terrible inroads into the
ranks OF the brave little army fighting
against such heavy odds. Gen. Otis In
his latest dispatches admits the fatal
power of the torrid climate. When men
are struck down by tina heat they are so
completely FRUSTRATED that they are unfit

How badly the climate Is telling on
our soldiers in the Philippines may be
known in official circles. but the pubic
has little Information in regard to It.
Lists of the killed and wounded are pub
lished regularly, and also of the deaths
from disease, but there lie no list OF the
incapaoitated By heat. Yet from the very
nature Of the case the heat prostrations
must be numerous. Very few, II any, of
the troops were Injured to a tropical
climate when they went to the Philip
pines, and they have not been there long
enough to become acclimated, supposing
such thing Is possible. The .tempera-
ture Of tine islands ranges from So to %,
and now that the rainy season has begun
the air is constantly laden with moisture
which OF course makes the heat far more
trying. To live In such climate under
the most favorable circumstances, must
be attended with considerable danger to
men not used to it, but to march through
swamps and jungles under such torFid
sky must be terribly periloua. The Span
iaras suffered greatly from the climate,
though they attempted to do no CAM
paigning in the rainy season, and though
many of them had by years of service in
the island become somewhat Injured to It,
But we are trying to carry on an active
campaign in the midst of terrific heat and
copious showers, with troops that have

The original committee recommendation

Patient Has Slight Fever Effort to
Locate Bullet.
RENNES, August 16.-The correspondent
here of the Associated Press has just re-
turned from visit to NJ. Labor, who is
lying at the residence Of Prof. Basch, an
old. rambling house, situated in a walled
garden on the outskirts of Rennes. He
found. unfortunately, that the wounded
lawyer was worse. A slight fever has re-
turned.
The X-ray photographs are now being de-
veloped, the position of the bullet is not
discovered.
Madame Labor is beginning to feel the
effects of the nervous shock and fatigue.
M. Hill. secretary of NJ. Labori said 1t
had not been thought advisable to inform
the patient today of the refusal of the
president of the court-martial to adjourn
the sessions in view of counsers condition.
The decision of Col. Jouaust not to ad-
journ the court has created very bad i'm
preston i'll Dreyfus circles. and pessimistic
predictions are beirg made as to the out
come of the trial.
1t is pointed out that the decision of the
members of the court not to adjourn being
unanimous shows that not one of the judges
is we'll disposed toward the prisoner.
The assailant of the lawyer has not been
captured.
