agement of the war department.
Roosevelt, in his letter to the cabi.
net officer, was very severe in his crti-
Cism OF the general course OF the war
department, and insisted that the ad-
ministration could not afford to be held
responsible for Alger, nor to continue
the military policy in the Philippines
or in Cuba. He urged that vigorous
and effective operations be insisted on.
This letter was shown to the president
at once, as it was intended to be, and
from this was started the renewal Of
the demand for Alger's retirement that
resulted in his resignation.
When the president sent for Roose-
welt. as he did some time before Alger
resigned. it is stated that the object in
calling him to the White House was
to talk over this letter and try TO reach
some understanding that would avoid
hasty action in the matter. 1t was
supposed, after this interview between
the president and Governor Roosevelt,
that the whole matter would go for
two or three months before final action.

than build an additional line. We
would rather divide the cost and ex-

New York, July 3l.-A special to

According to verbal reports to the navy

merchants in Yokohama, although ouf
consuls have been directed to keep a
sharp lookout for filibustering.
In more than one instance. British
officers have aided the United States
in preventing the shipment of arms
from Hong Kong, but officers just re.

prices has induced merchants to VIC.

Honolulu, July %, via San Francis
co, Aug. 2.-The latest reports from
the volcano Of Mauna Loa, received to
day by way of kalaieha, is to the
effect that a great change took place
in the course OF the lava flow on the
night OF July IS. The mighty stream
of burning lava which was steadily
flowing toward the town OF Ililo and
threatening its destruction, has been
diverted in its course so that the dang
er to life and property is less immi.
nent than at the time of the previous
mail advices from here. Ever since the
flow began, July 4, the course of the
stream of lava has been from the high
est active cones down to the mountain
nearly due east, past all the sources of
lava till it reached and partly crossed
the flow Of 1850. Then it turned
abruptly to the north in the direction
of Kalaeha, ON the side OF Mauua Loa.
1t spread all over the side of the noun
tain, occupying an area almost a mile
wide. This was the condition of things
up to the night of July IS.
Some time during that night the
first part OF the stream, flowing east
ward, broke through its banks about
half way from its source, to where it
turned northwaid down the mountain
parallel with the old channel, but
further west. This is carrying the
lava less directly toward Hilo and
keeping it nearer the ridge which d.
vides from the slope off in the direction
OF the Kohala coast.
The lava flow from Mauna Loa has
changed its course and the city OF Hilo
is no longer in danger.

There was friction between Roose

famous round-robin Roosevelt partici-
pated in getting up, while he was with
the rough riders at Santiago. Secretary
