DEWEY DENIES IT.
He Did Not Promise Independence to
the Filipinos.

Washington, July 23.-The letter re
of A%guinaldo's generals, ]. Alejandrino
containing an alleged account of an in
terview between himself and Admira
Dewey on board the Olympia April
1898, in which it is stated that Admiral
Dewey promised independence to the
F%ilipinos, was shown to the admiral
today by an Associated Press reporter
The admiral characterized it d tissue
of falsehoods." He declared it absurd
on its face. Il not only had no power
to promise independence to the Fill
pinos," said he, but the whole tenor
of the words put in my mouth stamps
them as false. | am made to say things
which | never thought of and which I
could never have uttered. You will no.
tice that | am addressed in the alleged
interview as admiral when at the time
| was a commodore"
The admiral said he had never heard
of ~Alejandrino. Several Filipinos, af-
ter much importuning, came aboard
the Olympia at Hong Kong. They
were anxious to be taken to Manila.
Il considered their representations of
little Importance" said the admiral,
and did not take them to Manila. Lat
err | gave permission to Aguinaldo and
about a dozen others to come to Ma
Mia. All that they were anxious about
at that time was an end of the tyranny
OF Spain, against which they had been
fighting. After the destruction of Mon
tejo's fleet the city virtually surren-
dered, and | am satisfied that if we had
had 5000 troops there at hat time we
could have gone ashore and been re-
ceived by the Filipinos as deliverers.
They had absolutely no thought then
of Independence. That was an after
thought of their leaders during the in
term between the smashing of the
Spanish fleet and the arrival of the Un-
tied States troops"
Speaking Of the report that Cuba was
to be evacuated by the American troops
after the holding of the constitutional
convention, Admiral Dewey said he did
not e how the United States could
turn over the islands to the Cubans I'M
til a stable government had been estab-
lished.
We are responsible to the world for
the orderly conduct of affairs in Cuba"
said he, land until such a government
is established l cannot see how we can
withdraw. We are confronted with a
similar situation in the Philippines.
The world looks to us and no matter
which political party wins in Novem-
Der the United States cannot relinquish
the islands until a responsible and sta
BILE government is set up there"

AUGUST FLOWER.

ut is a surprising fact" says Prot
Houston, that in my travels in all
parts Of the world, for the last ten
years I have met with more people
having used Green's August Flower
than any other remedy. for dyspepsia
derangsd liver and stomach, and fol
constipation. I find for tourists and
statesmen, or for persons filling office
positions, where headaches and genera
bad feeling from irregular habits exist
that Green's August Flower is q grand
remedy. It does not injure the system
by frequent use. and is excellent fol

AN ELECTROCUTION.
Joseph Mullen's Life Taken at Sing
Sing in One Minute.

Sing Sing, July 30.-Joseph Mullen,
the wife murderer, was executtd to-
day in the shortest time on record.
He was dead in one minute after the
current was turned on. One minute
later all the formalities were complied
with and he was officially pronounced
dead.
The man entered the death chamber
at 6:03. Two minutes later he was
strapped and bound in the chair and a
current had been turned on. At 6:O6
he was dead, and in another minute
DR.. Janeway had made the official
announcement.
The voltage at first was 1910 and 1t
was kept up for thirty seconds. Then
1t was gradually reduced and again
turned on. There was no struggle, no
scene. Old prison officials say it was
the most successful execution ever
conducted here.
On June 4, 1898, Mullen deliberately
shot and killed his wife in a fiat at 3
West Seventh street, New York City.
He then turned the revolver upon
himself, but failed to inflict a wound.
The shooting arose over the fact that
Mrs. Mullen had discovered that her
husband had a wife in England. She
brought suit for divorce, and when she
refused to be reconciled Mullen shot
her. 1t was shown at Mullen's trial
that he had deliberately planned to
murder his wife.

Happy Experience of a Well-Knowr
Citizen of This City.

Charles S. Klein has every reason to
feel happy. He has had an experience
recently that is worth repeating. Mr..
