Otis Calls Il unfortunate.

Chicago, Sept. S0.-Maj. Gen. Otis,
commander of the department of the
lakes and formerly commander of the
United States army In the Philippines.
while deploring the disaster to the Ninth
Regiment in southern samar, declared
last night that the mishap was only an
unfortunate accident, and by no means
indicated general uprising of the rebel
forces. According to Gen. Otis. southern
Samar is the last of the islands to re-
main unsubdued and unconquered by
the American forces. 1t has. not come
under civil rule. 1t is also the refuge for
the main body of Filipinos who are still
fighting the American flag.

These old windmills were quaint af-

later the roof OF the building was pivot

1t remained for the engineers Of tho

How MANY AppIauded,

The Evening Journal says that Rep
rescntatiye Chandler of White Clay
Creek Hundred is being congratulated
for his persistent opposition to the
election Of Addicks to the United
States Senate. lie may have been
congratulated by few persons but
he has been condemned by the great
mass of Republicans who desired the
election of two Senators, even il Ad-
dicks was one of them, and many Of
them declare that they will neve r
vote for him again. Whether he act
ed wisely or well in joining the Dem.
ocrats in hurrahing over the defeat Of
the election OF Senators, remains to
be seen, but the true friends Of the
party think he made great mistake
and Senator Groves had reasonable
proyocatlon for styling him traitor.
