Washington Letter.
washington, Oct. 9, 1899.

Washington, Oct. 9, 1893. ]
Admiral Dewey left Washington for
New England today. He will return In
about two weeks. He made Georgia
delegation happy by replying as follows
to their invitation to go to Atlanta to par
ticipate In the ceremonies attending the
presentation of sword to his flag officer,
Lieut.. Brumby, who is Georgian: why,
certainly. gentlemen, I'll come. / have
no engagement which will prevent my
going to Atlanta about Nov. /, and I'll be
glad to present the sword myself to
Lieut.. Brumby." /
MANY men of many minds" certainly
apply to everything connected with the
country's new possessions. Recently the
opinions that Porto Rico was ripe for civil
government have been largely in the ma
jority, but that isn't the view of Lieut.
Col. W. P. Hall, adjutant general of the
department of Porto Rico, who Is now in
Washington. He said on the subject !:
Conditions are not yet such as to warrant
the abandonment of military rule in Porto
Rico; in fact, 1t would be sorrowful day
for the country II 1t were deprived of tt 9
firm yet kind government that is doing a
a splendid work there, and will continue
to administer affairs in the interest of the
whole people. Certain individuals dislike
to see Americans on the island, as they
are keen to get hold Of the custom house
receipts for their personal benz fit. They
remember how officials in the past waxed
fat on collection of these same receipts,
and they think that If the present regime
were abandonded, they might have a
chance to inaugurate another era of public
plunder"
A delegation of Greek Indians, who are
in Washington to protest against viola
tons by the government of the treaty they
made with President Adams, in 1895, have
been infol med that relief can only come
from congress. They have with them a
historical relic In the shape of big silver
medal presented to their head chief, by
President Adams, when the treaty was
signed. On one side of the medal Is

Adams, president, to Chief Ho-poth. lo
