WAsHNGToN. June 2S.-Gen. Harrison Gray
Otis Of Los Angeles. Cal. has accepted an invi-
tation OF President Mckinley to visit him in
Washington. and he will be here shortly
II is supposed that Gen. Otis has been
asked to como because the President
wants to consult him about the stua-
ton in tho Philippines. Gen. Otis was
appointed a BrlGadicr- General Of Volunteers
at the outbreak OF the war with Spain and sent
to Manila He saw active srrv zee with Mac
Arthurs column in the aggressive movement
against AGuinailo's army and WAS recently in
yalid"d home. The invitation was sent before
President Mckinley left Washington on his
New Euglnnh trip
4 report i IN circulation that the post OF
Secretary Of War to succeed Gen. AlRer will bc
offered Gen. Otis. With the report ia coupled
the statement that tho President will ask
Secretary Ag"r TO retire on account Of the
criticisms Of the Administration by Gov. Pin
gree in connection with the Governors sup
port OF Secretary Alger for the Michigan Sena-
torship. As the invitation to Gen. Otis was
extended before the Pingree interviews wcro
published this statement appears to be based
on the nero suppositIOn OF persons who as
sume that the invitation had been sent within
