LoNDoN's COMMENT.
Daily Chronicle Contrasts Dewey With
the Intellectual otis.p

London. Sept. 27.-Most of the. morn
ing papers comment editorially upon
Admiral Dewey's arrival at New York.
The Morning Post says Admiral
Dewey ought to be able to give precious
counsel to his government in diff
Guilty which is rapidly depriving it of
all the credit won by the war with
Spain"
The Daily Chronicle says: President
Mckinley and his friends will possibly
regard the popular welcome extended
to Admiral Dewey with not little anx-
iety owing to the contrast of Dewey's
success with the fioundering of Otis
If the democrats are wise, they will
make Dewey their champion. He would
be q formidable candidate for the pres
idency. Gen. Alger had to be dragged
from President Mckinley Will any
effort induce him to give up the in1
effectual Otis?'
