OTIS SEES END Of THt. WAR.
General Says Philippines Must
Yield to Present Force.
LAUDS AMERICAN SOLDIERS.
Trouble in China Is Regarded as Dinicult
TO settle-The Influence of Aguinaido
Is en- the wane--Believes tho Export
of Aguinaldo's Death False.

Chicago, June n.-Maj. Gen. Elwell
s. Otis, former commander in chief OF
the United States forces in the Philip
pines, arrived in Chicago. During his
stay OF two hours In the city he gave
1t as his opinion that the situation in
the Philippines required no additional
soldiers to quell the rebellion.
II do not believe" said the general,
that Aguinaldo has been killed. lie
Is far too clever to be caught in close
proximity to the firing line, and has
been hiding in the mountains for the
last year. He has been deserted by his
cabinet and the best of his military
staff and is followed now by a few
fast friends who would be unable to
render any material assistance in case
Of emergency.
His influence has waned. The ma
jority of the natives want peace and
are confident of the ability of the Unit
ed States to rule them. Not another
soldier is needed in the Philippines, al
though it would require fully 25O, 900
men to cover each post and city. Our
troops are stationed where the Spanish
forces never dared to enter. am con-
WINGED that the American soldiers can
stand the climate as well or better
than the natives.
Our entire sick list is not 10 per
cent, including wounded, and that Is
certainly very good showing among
such a large number of men. The
American soldier is the ideal fighter
Of tho world. and we have awakened
the powers Of Europe by our display
of arms. There has been a certain
amount Of gambling, which is expected
in all armies, but the same complaints
might be expected were we engaged in
warfare on the plains of Arizona.
"The Chinese trouble has arisen
since my departure from the Philip
pines, but believe that it is serious
question and will cause the great pow
eras trouble before it is settled. My
opinion in this matter, however, must
be communicated first to my superiors
in Washington.

San Francisco, Cal, June ia let
ter from trustworthy source received
on the steamer City of Para, from
Guatemala, says: "The government is
in very unsatisfactory condition f.
nancially. The president some time
ago issued a proclamation Of amnesty
to all absentees who are unfavorable to
his administration, but no good result
has come of this, and over 1000 promi-
nent men have left the country until
matters are adjusted. The govern
ment has issued s6,O0O,O0o or IS, 600, 900
paper money on which exchange is at
this writing $50 per cent. There is
practically no money in circulation"
