Being Raised by the Princeton on
philippine Islands.
WASHINGTON. d. C., Feb. 12.-It is
learned at the navy department that
the Princeton is acting under the orders
of Admiral Watson, and not under
those OF general Otis, in raising the flag
over the northern Islands Of the Philip
pine archipelago. The assumption is
that this policy was dictated from
Washington. 1t Is said as to the is
lands said to have been visited and ta-
ken possession of north of the twentieth
degree of latitude, that they are clearly
within the limits of the ceded territory.
The peace treaty does not fix the north
ern boundary as precisely upon the
twentieth degree but as running
through the Bashee channel, about the
twentieth degree and the islands are
south OF that channel.

Manager Pop Lytle. OF the wheelings.
yesterday returned from Pittsburgh.
where he had a conference with Man
agsr Connie Mack. OF the Milwaukee
club, of the American league, and sue
ceeded in closing deal by which the
wheeling club secures the release of
outaelder consaiton, whose work with
the Brewers last season was sensation
al. Manager Mack does not believe
that The American league win MATERIAL
lie 50 far as Milwaukee Is concerned,
and purposes putting team there that
win beat out any opposition the new
league can possibly rake up.
The indianapolis club, OF the Amerl-
can league, wants more for outielder
Dobbs' release than the wheeling man
agement Is willing to pay, and It looks
now as though this player will not wear
the local uniform. However, in Con-
galton Manager Lytle believes he has a
player who Is better than Dobbs at all
points Of the game.
The management has two short-stops
in Rothermei. late Of Baltimore, and
Hunky Hines, formerly Of Detroit. Ly-
tie figures on placing Hines in the OUT
field, unless Denny" Lyons falls to
come to time. The veteran second
basoman received a wheeling contract
some time ago, but 50 far the manage
mrnt has not heard from him, and the
Impression is that Denny is hoping
to break into major league company
the American Association-lf the oppor-
tunity offers. II Lyons slips away 1t is
likely Hines will be played at second
connie" Mack believes Wheeling has
as strong a team as he has gathered for
Milwaukee in the American league, and
said to Lyle that he didn't see how
Wheeling could avoid winning the In
ter-state rug.
The local management expects to
land two slab companions for Poole and
Bates that viii make the pitching stan
the strongest in the league. 1t is learn
ed that the men being negotiated for are
Pardee and strlcklin, OF the Kansas
city club. Pardee's standing is so well
known that 1t Is not necessary to pun"
him in these columns. and stricklin,
who was secured by Manning last fall.
won the Western Association pennant
for Rock Island by his phenomenal box
work. II these men are secured the
local fans" viii begin TO see visions Of
another pennant. even though II Is
conceded that February dreams soma
times become october nightmares.
