Recallof General Otis
General Macarthur to be Gov
ernor General Of Philippines

General Otis has at last been re.
lieved from duty in the Philippines
and expects to sail for home about
May first.
1t is contended by some of the
American papers, that this is simply
a recall and that it is practically a
yielding of the President to the po
pular elamor for his removal, after
waiting long enough that it should
not appear to he such.
This is not shown, however, in the
official correspondence, printed heloW
but rather that General Otis was
relieved ut his own urgent request.

NIayo'S Island

It IS a probability that Richmond will
have another ship-yard. This new yard
will, if established, be operated by Cham
bin & Scott, and vessels Of small dis
placement Will be built, such boats as
torpedo boats, cutters, and hght-dratlgtss
gunboats and cruisers. Chamblin e Scott
have now in operation a modern machine
shop and foundry, and facilities for con-
str1rcting and launching only need be
arranged for.

seen last night and asked regarding a
site He stated that the plans were as
yet In very embryonic state, and that
waaale the firm had under consideration
various sites none had as yet been def
nttely decided upon. When asked whe-
Their an option had been secured on
fayo's Island. he said he was not in a
position just then to discuss the matter.
: Mr.. Ware d. Gay, president OF the
company owning Nayo's Island. IS now
On this city. Mr.. Gay was seen last night

stated that his visit to Richmond at this
time was not solely for the purpose OF
holding a conference with Chamb!in &
Scott II would rather not talk about
the matter at present. said Mr.. Gay.
