The administration was greatly
chagined by the indifference of the
people of Washington towards Gen. E
s. Otis, and took special pains to add
attractions to the reception given him
by the people of Rochester, n. Y, his
home city. Secretary Long sent the
full Marine Band, at public expense,
and Secretary Root virtually ordered
Gen. Joe Wheeler, now an unassigned
Brigadier General in the regular army,
to go, to Rochester to help add enthusi-
asm to the occa' zion. Mr., Mckinley
has been made to realize, by the indif-
ference of the public toward Gen.
Otis, how unpopular his Philippine
policy is with the people, and with the
realization has come alarm. He knows
that the people know that the response
bility for putting Otis in command in
the Philippines and keeping him in
command after his unftness for the pc.
sition had been shown up, belongs tc
VIM. Mckinley, and he fears that thG
people will be as Indifferent towards
him on election day as they have shown
themselves towards Otis now. The
spectre Of doubt has become Mr. Nc
Kinley's constant companion.
