A spur track is being built off the
Tybee Railroad at a point about a mile
and half from the depot. for the ac-
commodation Of the department that will
have the army corrals in charge
The corrals are now being built, and
there will be an advantage in having the
spur, even before it becomes necessary
10 unload or load stock. Material that
may be used can be brought out on the
cars and run right to the corral grounds.
Although the corrals are to be located
right along the track, The spur will be an
advantage over a siding, in that Il viii
jut right into the middle of the reserva-
ton. 1t IS expected to run the spur out
far enough to admit of its accommodating
twenty cars. The work of its construc-
ton will be finished tomorrow.

THE PHILIPPINES.
London News Quotes Dewey AS
Favoring SeIfs- fs-Government.

London, Aug. 20.-The Naples corre-
spondent of the Daily News telegraphs
the substance of an interview he had
with Admiral Dewey there during the
Admiral's recent visit. Admiral Dewey
said he believed the Philippine ques-
tion would shortly be solved. In his
Judgment the inhabitants were capable
of self-government, and the only way to
settle insurrection and to insure prosp-
Gritty was to concede it to them. He
declared that he was never in favor of
violence toward the Filipinos, and
remarked that after autonomy had
been conceded annexation might be
talked of. When asked wheather a
conflict between Germany and the
United States over the Philippines
were possible, Admiral Dewey replied,
according to the correspondent" It is
impossible to foresee the unforeseeable.
