THE REVOLUTION IS SPREADING
JIMINEZ ARRIVAL IN SAN Do
MINGo ANXIOUSLY AWAITED.
Popularity of the Movement With
Use of Gomez Name-Talk Of
Annexation.

Kingston, aJmaica, Aug. IA mail
dispatch from Santo Domingo, dated
Aug. 3, via Hayti. confirms the cable
intelligence telling of the spread and
significance of the revolution through
out the Dominican republic. Prominent
men in civil and military circles, it ap-
pears, are taking the field with the I'M
derstanding that Jiminez is the prime
mover, and that he will shortly arrive
there from Cuba with munitions of
war.
Among his military adherents, bring
ing armed followings, including reg
ular soldiers, were the we'll known gen.
erals, Ramon Pacheco and Pablo Reyes.
who are advancing westward by forced
marches for the purpose of cutting off
Monte Christi from reinforcements and
to form a junction with the insurgent
forces from Hayu, thus opening a way
for the JiminiZ expedition.
Undoubtedly the popularity of the
revolution is due to the use of the name
of Gomez, and should he decline the
presidency or Jiminiz finally oppose his
election, prominent leaders are already
considering the alternative of calling
plebecite in order to ascertain whether
the country would not prefer TO renew
the vote OF 1871 for American annexa-
ton or an American protectorate, rath-
er than elect another dictator. thus Sc
curing permanent peace and prosperity.

CAMPS IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Inspector General Says They Are All
In Good Condition.

Washington, Aug. ia report has
been received at the war department.
from Major John Smalley, inspector
general of the Eighth army corps in
the Philippines, covering the work he
has been doing between Feb. IS and
June 80. He has made number of in
designations of charges against officers,
which have appeared in the United
States in one form or another Most
OF these charges have proved to be
with little foundation. In April he in
spected the camps near Malolos, and
commenting upon the condition, he
says:
The camps were found to be in good
sanitary condition, sufficiently policed
and suitable sinks having been dug
and generally used. Water fit for
drinking purposes was at first scarce,
but good water. generally in sufficient
quantities, was, after a few days, reg
ularly supplied from Manila by train.
The clothing was, as a rule, sufficient
for the actual requirements of the
campaign and was fairly serviceable.
The rafions were regulation in amount
and excellent in all respects. Austral-
ian beef of excellent quality being
furnished from cold storage ships. and
potatoes and onions in a good state of
preservation being supplied from the
United States Roasted and ground
coffee was in request until furnished
from Manila by the subsistence de-
oartment.
Similar inspection made at San Fer
nando about the middle of May did
not show as satisfactory conditions ex-
listing as at Maiolcs in the matter of
rations. for While the rations issued
were regulation in amount. it had been
impossible since leaving the vicinity of
Calumpit. early in May, 70 furnish the
troops with fresh beef and fresh veg
etables. ewing TO the destruction or
railroad and wagon bridges.
The travel ration was. therefore,
largely used, canned corned beef, how
ever, being varied with bacon and sal
mon. Unfortunately, owing probably
to the intense heat, a considerable por-
tion Of the bacon had to be condemned.
The command was found also to be
badly off in the matter of clothing,
owing to the rough usage the uniforms
of the men had been subjected TO. AS
soon as the bridges could be repaired
and the railroad replaced, the needed
variety in rations was furnished.
AN inspection recently made SHOWS
that the rations are and for some time
have been excellent in all respects, and
suitable and sufficient uniforms ana
other clothing are either in possession
of the men or will soon be received
from Manila; also that every sanitary
condition obtains"

partment this afternoon received the

MAZET COMMITTEE ADJoURNS.
VIII Not Meet Again Until Sept. IL
PROCEEDINGS Yesterday.

New York, Aug. 1.-THE Mazet legis-
iative investigating committee today
adjourned until Sept. u. Attorney
Frank Moss VIII spend the next four
weeks preparing a statement of the
work OF the committee and framing re-
ports of improvement or supposed i'm
provements in matters pertaining to
municipal legislation which will be
presented to the next legislature. As
semblyman Hoffman, the Democratic
member Of the committee in attend
ance. objected TO adjournment, but he
was out voted four TO one by the Re
publican members OF the committee.
The session during the day was not
productive Of sensational results
superintendent William A. Butler, who
is in charge of the city records was
called to the stand for the purpose of
showing, if possible, that contracts for
the city printing were let out through
favoritism, but the witness was firm
and convincing in his assertions that
all contracts were let out to bids.
Henry S. Kearney, commissioner of
building, lighting and supplies, testi-
fed regarding the issuance of permits
for allowing the Metropolitan line 20
put in electric ducts along that road.
Mr.. Kearney acknowledged that he
thought the company had secured about
30 Fer cent excess in ducts but said he
had allowed il because the company
had declared it necessary. Mr.. Moss
attempted to show that this extra
mower would be used by the street rails
suad for outside contracts like furnish
ing power and light TO citizens.
The attorney of the committee in
sisted that the extra ducts amounted
practically to 2 franchise. This was
denied by the commissioner who in
cidentaisy made the remark that his
department WAS paralyzed by the re-
fusal of the municipal assembly to
concur in permits granted by him for
stringing wires and carrying on other
work in his domain

To Remain In Supreme Command In
the Philippines.
DECISION OF M'KINLEY
HE IS THE RIGHT
MAN FOR THE PLACE.
Should, However, He Request to Be
Relieved, General Lawton Will Be
Assigned to Duty as His Success
or-Alger Once Recommended
Otis Recall, But Was Ignored.

New York, Aug. ia special to the
General Otis will remain in supreme
command of the Philippines. Should
he request to be relieved, Major Gen
eral LawtOn will be assigned to duty
as his successor. This is the decision
reached by the president and Secretary
Root during their conferences at Lake
Champlain.
Secretary Root made no secret today
of the purpose of the president to re-
tain General Otis in control at Manila,
and so informed General Miles at a
long conference. 1t is evident that not
withstanding General Merritt's ex-
will not have the opportunity, and
even Lawton's promotion is conditional
upon the request of Otis to be de-
tached from command.
1t is learned that former Secretary
Alger, just before his retirement. rec
commended that General Otis be relieved
on the ground that he had not proven
himself equal to the emergency.
General Miles favors sending addi-
tional cavalry, but it is said that Secre-
tary Root has no intention at present of
doing this. The operations which Gen
eTal Macarthur is conducting to the
northward of San Fernando have
double purpose; first, to demoralize the
insurgents and prevent them from
strengthening the positions they have,
and, second, to establish himself at a
point on the railroad connecting the
Gulf of Lingayen with Manila. General
Lawton's recent demonstration to the
southwark of Manila and the operations
generally are all part of Otis plan to
keep the insurgents in constant fear of
attack

STONE IS SOLID FOR BRYAN.
ALI Talk of His Giving Support to
Schley, He Says, Is Rot.

St. Louis, Aug. III am for Bryan for
president. l have always been for him
and expect to remain so. l think there
is not a shadow of doubt about his
nomination by the next Democratic. con-
vention."
This statement was made by Vice Chair
man w. ]. Stone of the national Demo-
cratic committee today, when he was
asked about reports from Washington
that he was preparing to forsake Bryan
and take up Rear Admiral Schley as a
candidate for the Democratic presidential
nomination. Mr.. Stone further said:
Il have never heard Schley's name men,
toned as d possible candidate for presi-
dent, except in newspaper gossip. l never
thought this was serious and do not think
the last report is any more serious than
the others. l have never thought of
Schley as anything but brave naval
officer. This talk about my being for
him is rot. L am for Bryan"
Speaking of the Democratic conferences
reported as being held at Saratoga, Mr..
Stone said: Il don't believe the confer
ences amount to anything. This talk
about them is all nonsense"

SURPRISED THE FILIPINos.
Americans Took Them Unawares
and Badly Whipped Them.

Manila, Aug. n.-Reconnoitering by
small parties continued today I'm
awaiting attempts were made to get in
contact with the enemy. The Ameri-
can troops occupy Calula, Santa Rima,
BacOlor and Guagua.
No further engagements have taken
place. The rains have recommended.
The wounded are being brought into
Manila.
The insurgents lost heavily in the
fighting around Calua- 1t is believed
that 100 were killed and 300 or 400
wounded. The Iowa regiment killed
thirty in one place and one company of
the Seventeenth suddenly encountered a
party of rebels in a trench and killed
twelve. The American losses were five
killed and thirty-one wounded, includ-
ing three officers.
The attack was complete surprise
to the insurgents, who had no idea that
a movement was intended until the ar
mored car opened a deadly fire with
two Gatlings, a revolving cannon and
a six-pounder. The heavy artillery
opened on both TANKS moment later
Armajority of the Filipinos were asleep
when the attack was made. Men with
large bells were heard running along
among the shacks arousing the SOL
diers.
The Americans maintained almost a
perfect line four miles through a cane
brake. where they could see nothing
ahead. The mud in places was knee
deep in the rice fields and jungles, and
through the bitches flowed small rivers
several feet deep.
The Filipinos tried to ambush the
Americans several times, the country
in the neighborhood being well adapted
to these tactics. but the troops stopped
for nothing, forcing their way through
or over obstacles and firing whenever
they could locate the fleeing enemy.
The officers highly commend the re-
cruits OF the various regiments.
There is reason to believe the re-
ports received that the insurgents are
short of ammunition, as we'll informed
natives at Calua say the insurgents
had only forty rounds of ammunition
and five rounds extra were issued Just
before the fight.
Since the American occupation of San
Fernando the rebels have torn up six
miles of railroad between there. and
-Calua, and it is impossible to get the
armored car more than two miles be-
yond San Fernando.
