HIS REPUTATION AT STAKE.
Gen. Otis, It L. Argued, Is thu One Most
Interested In an Early settlement OF
the Filipino War.

Washington, Sept. 19.-The impor-
lance of subduing the insurrection as
speedily as possible is appreciated by
no one better than Gen. Otis, who un-
derstands that his military reputation
depends upon success. and he, there
fore, is getting ready to adapt himself
to the improved situation. While there
are some officials filed with apprehen-
sion that Aguinaldo may be able to
prolong his warfare until another
rainy season arrives, the spirit of the
war department has grown in con-
6dence that the American troops now
in the field and on the way will accom-
plish all that is expected of them in a
fighting campaign that will give the
enemy no rest until he surrenders.
