New War Secretary says ar VIII
Ie Pushed With Nigor.
Plattsburg, n. ", Aug. 1o.2The war
in the Philippines is TO be prosecuted
With a yigor that ought to result in a
speedy cessation Of hostilities there.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press saw Secretary of War Root last
night in the office of the Hotel Cham
plain Just after he had said goodby to
the president and was preparing to
take the 9:45 train for Washington.
The secretary referred to his visit to
Plattsburg barracks in the afternoon,
where he witnessed IA regimental drill
of the Twenty-siSth regiment under
command of Colonel Rice. This regi-
ment has been recruited and organized
in a little over three weeks and it
drilled Hike old veterans.
1.-The progress which the officers and
men of the T~wentN-siNth regiment
have made in drilling in so short a
time is simply marvellous said Mr..
Root. ut shows the wonderful power
of the United States when ten regi-
nents of volunteer soldiers can be re-
cruited, organized, armed and
equipped for active service in the
field in so short Il time"
"Will the wan in the Philippines be
prosecuted Vigorously from now on?."
asked ike Associated Press CORE
spondent.
Mr.. Root turned on his heel and re-
piled quick as Il fash, Yes, sir; the
war in the Philippines from now on
will be prosecuted with all possible en-
ergy. All the mcn. all the arms and
all the supplies necessary to end the
trouble in the islands will be furnished
at the earliest possible moment
How large a force Will be at the
disposal OF the commanding general
there?' was asked.
There will be $4,000 men there
ready for active service at the close of
tober, and more will be SEM there il
necessary
AS to the rumor published in the pa
pers that President Mckinley and he
were not agreed on the policy to be
pursued in the Philippines Mr.. Root
said: ''Of course that is all nonsense"
When asked whether General Otis
would be relieved of the command of
the troops in the Philippines Mr.. Root
replied that he had nothing to say on
that point at this time.
1t would be impossible for anyone
to be more emphatic than Secretary
Root is in his avowed purpose of end
ing the war i'm the Philippines. He
seldom talks for publication, and the
fact that he had just come from a two
days interview with the president
lends force to his words.
