WHEELER EXPECTS
 TO BE SWORN IN
His Trip to Philippines Benefited
 Him Physically.
RESIGNED ON NOVEMBER 20
Miss Annie Wheeler, who Accompanied the General, Denies the Reported Story of Her Engagement
 to Be Married.

San Francisco, March 7.-General Joseph Wheeler and party, who have been in quar- antine since their arrival from the Philip pines on the transport Warren last Monday,
 were permitted to land tonight. When seen by an Associated Press reporter, General Wheeler said that his health was excellent, and that his trip to the Philippines, if any,
 thing, benefited him physically. He said: II had very interesting visit to Guam.
 It is a beautiful island. I rode over great
 deal of it, traversing its length and crossing it three times. I visited all the towns and
 was much pleased with the people there
 and their hospitality and apparent desire to express good feelings toward Americans
 was very gratifying"
 Speaking of his resignation from the army General Wheeler said he resigned November 20, but was not ordered home until the mid de of January. He did not care to discuss his reasons for leaving the army After
 brief stay in this city, General Wheeler will go to Washington to take his seat in con- gress.
 Hop tp be Seated
 q have letter saying that an effort will
 be made to keep me from taking my seat,
 said the general. But l don't see why such an effort should be successful. The ob1ec-
 tion is that I was not on hand to be sworn
 in and it is stated that I was holding an
 other position that initiates against my
 rieht to be elected. I shall go to Washing
 ton, having resigned from the army ana
 with a proper certificate of election, ana expect to be sworn in"
 "It will be noted that my resignation from tbe army was handed in before congress met" At to the situation in the Philippines and Guam, he said: "All is satisfact in both places. The war is over except for the work or the guerrilla band that ambush our troops and do little damage. Just before l left heard of a case in which an American sol dier was killed and several wounded This condition of things will not last long, think
