CAUGHT IN A HURRICANE
Thrilling Experience of the
Steamer Kansas City.
FIRE ADDS ITS HORRORS
Only by the Most Valiant Efforts That
the Vessel Was Saved and Brought
Into Port-Many Persons
Were Injured.

Savannah, Ga, Aug. 20.-The steamer
Kansas City, which reached here this
| morning so hours overdue, had a thrill
ling experience in the West Indian hur-
ricane. The ship encountered the storm
off Cape Hatteras and battled with it
miles off her course seward. The pas
sengers were wet, bedraggled and sick
and some of the women became hyster-
zeal. Most of the passengers kept in
their rooms. and those on the upper
deck were unable to get out.
The ship rolled and lurched as the
huge waves struck her and broke over
were battered, and every moment dur
ing the fiercest of the storm 1t was
feared the skylights would be broken in
and let the waves through.
At one time danger of fire was added
to the horrors of the storm. Friday
morning the electric wires set fire to
the casing in the after companionway.
The fire worked it's way along the cas-
ing to the main saloon. The alarm was
given Immediately and the call to
quarters was sounded. The storm was
still at its height, but the crew re-
sponded quickly to the call and the fire
was subdued.
All the casualties were among the
officers and crew. Captain Fisher was
injured, though not seriously, by fall,
and First officer Smith was thrown
against the deck and internally in
jured. Several coal passers were in
iured. and it was only by extra :ifort
that they were kept at work.

PLANNING THE CAMPAIGN
Secretary Root Closely Studies
the Philippine Situation.
A DIVISION OF FORCES
Four Armies Instead OF Two VIII Prob
ably Operate With View to
Separating the Filipino
Command.

Washington, Aug. 20.-The maps of
the Philippines, and especially of that
portion of the island of Luzon, north
and south of Manila, which have been
prepared for the use of Secretary Root,
may assume a more important part in
the coming campaign than has been
given it heretofore. Secretary Root has
not only ascertained where the United
States troops are located, and has tn m
has also taken into consideration SUCH
information as can be obtained relative
to the population of the adjacent cuun-
try, the kind of people and their dis
position toward the United States. The
secretary has been studying the lines OF
transportation and learning what he
can of the geography of the country
1t is believe that more than one army
can operate to advantage in the Philip
pines and the suggestion has been ma lie
by some army officers that an army
should start from different points and
operate in such a manner as to dis
tract and destroy the Filipino force. At
the present the United States forces
do not occupy the lines of railway half
way to Lingayen, on the gulf of the
same name. 1t has been suggested
that if one force We're to start frc m
Lingayen and move south at the same
time that another were moving nor h,
there would be very great prCbabilit ~
of soon securing the entire railway for
the use of the army, and the insurgents
would be separated into divisions east
and west by the railroad as they are
now divided into northern and southern
bands. Between Angeles and Lingayen
is Talarc, town of considerable size,
and situated in a province where the
natives are said to be not unfriendly
to the United States. If this province
should be occupied it might be of great
advantage to the government
While these are merely suggestions,
it may be that when the army in the
Philippines consists of 10000 men in
stead of about 10000 or $4,000. it viii
be possible to have four or more armies
operating instead of two. as during the
last campaign. The locations of troops,
as marked byspins on the map prepared
for Secretary Root, show places occu-
pied as follows:

WILL PROBABLY FUSE.
Prospects Bright for Triple Alliance in
Nebraska

Nebraska.
Omaha, Neb., Aug. 20.-The state con-
ventions of the democrats, populists
and silver republicans of Nebraska will
meet in this city on Tuesday, Aug. %,
to place in nomination candidate for
justice of the supreme court, and two
members of the board of regents of the
state university. There will be a strong
attempt made to fuse the three parties
on all the nominations, with a good
prospect of success. Ex-Governor Sias
A. Holcomb, populist, is the leading
candidate for the supreme bench, and
the present outlook is that he will re-
ceive the nomination.
Col. w. ]. Bryan is delegate to the
democratic convention, and il is reaS~
Onably safe to predict that his wishes
will govern the action of that body.
This means that fusion will be go,
and that the platform will declare for
free silver. There is likely to be some
friction before fusion is effected, and a
long drawn fight on some of the de-
tails, but the general feeling here is
that the three elements will come to-
eether. On the question of the Philip
pines the platform will, in all probable
ity, declare against expansion and crit
icise the administration for its conduct
of the war.

Toward the Filipinos.

spOndent of the Daily News tel.gra phs
the substance of an interview he had
with Admiral Dewey there during the
admirals recent visit
Admiral Dewey said he believed the
Philippine question would shortly be
solved. In his judgment the inhabi-
tants We're capable Of self-gOvernment,
and the only way to settle the insur-

concede it to them. He declared that

after autonomy had been conceded an
neXatiOn might be talked of.

tween Germany and the United States

miral Dewey replied, according to the
correspondent: 1T is impossible to
foresee the unforeseeable."
