ANOTHER LETTER FROM E, C.,

Each Regiment Wanted to- 60 to
China and Each One Could
&. Give Reasons Why
/. ,.4... They Shonld:: ~.
"Gmiguinto, p. I,

ust word this time to let you know
that We had quite q Autter here yester-
day in regard to the trouble in China.
I was in Manila after conlmissaries
when the report was circulated that
troops had been ordered to China from
here. Every soldier I ran across had
heard it and could give persons why his.
outfit would be the one to go.7 T hoped
We would be counted in, but the whole
business was exploded whom I found out
just what had been done. The Depart
ment wiied Macarthur and asked if
troops could be spared, but Macarthur
answered that none could bs spared. I
hope it becomes necessary and we go.
Joe il probably in tho business as he
has been transferred to tho Newark,
whose captain is in command Of the q.
8. forces landed. Two companies of
marines from Cavite have left here a.
ready. and il the Boxers will only put
up goodnight, ! may get an opportuni-
ty to get in some service there with Joe.
I am plugging along in the same old way
and have very little hope of doing any
thing else right away. T received the
Discovery ofAmerica last mail and 1t has
been bone Of contention in ca mp ever
since. Everybody who has seen it, from
the Capt. down. has insisted on being
next, and the few pages I have read to
my "gang" have stirred up quite q good
deal of discussion and an immense
amount of interest. Fisk's treatment of
the subject seems to hit these fellows
right. II. i. >.~ = = !, + VI. z<.s s2 :

ed for the train did not come down the
day I started to write, so it. would have
been too late. The news today ID inter
esting even it discouraging Chat is to
us). It is stated semi officially that the
9th Infantry has'been ordered to China,
and that the II is ordered to be in read

everyones disgust. Tt would be hne
thing for the regiment to add to it, rec
ord, already having quite q variety OF
service. From Fort Smelling to Ala
bama, then to Cuba, then to Montauk
Point, back to Fort Smelling, followed
by the Leach Lake campaign, then

world to serve in this island and all in
two years. There seems to be no use
hoping, but still / do and will continue
to do SO until the business is settled.
There is 9 typhoon raging now 50 that
It is impossible to embark troops. Small
boats can do nothing at all in the bay

Washington, May 25.-Discussion of
the SDooner Philippine bill was con-
tinued in the senate today by Mr.. Nor
gan of Alabama. On the general ques-
ton Of ownership and government by
the United States of the Philippine is
lands, he was in accord with Senators
Spooner and Lodge but he regarded the
pending bill as unwise and dangerous
legislation because of the great power
it placed in the hands of the president
1t was legalized absolutism and took
away from the senate the power to
confirm the appointments of the pres
ident
He was satisfied, however, that the
measure would not be passed by this
congress and declared that it was be-
ing used as a foil to thrust aside the
Nicaragua canal bill Much of his
speech was devoted to the canal bill
and to denunciation of the efforts to
prevent its enactment at this session.
Compares Incite Revolution.
Mr.. Morgan said the canal was doubly
necessary, now we were in the Philip
pines. He declared there was even now
a revolution IN the state of Panama
which was being fOmented, melted and
aided by various canal companies
which had propositions before the
United st ties for its consideration. Re
