ADMIRAL WATSON'S HEALTH.
Although Reported Much Better 1t 1,
Said Thut He Will Soon Return

Surgeon General Van Reypen of the navy
has received letter from Medical Director
Persons, fleet surgeon of the Asiatic sta
ton. dated Manila. August 10, saying that
the health of the admiral (Watson) has
very much improved. He has responded
to treatment very well indeed and now
feels perfectly well.''
Nothing has been received at the Navy
Department since the date of the above
letter to indicate that Admiral Watson has
not continued in good health. Neverthe-
less. the impression prevails at the depart
ment that change will shortly be made
in the command of the Asiatic squadron
In consequence Of an alleged desire on the
part of Admiral Watson to return to the
United States for personal reasons 1t is
said at the department that Admiral Wat
son will not be relieved except upon his
own request. Rear Admiral Remey, COM
manding the navy yard, Portsmouth N H..
is mentioned as Admiral Watson's most
probable successor in the event of a change.
