Another conference will be held tomorrow The Filipinos will remain twoor three days Their movements areqoito unrestricted but they are under theconstant chaperonage of Capt Johnsonof the Sixteenth Infantry theyvMted the hospitals and distributed mon-ey among the wounded Filipinos afterwhich they made calls and received vialtors at their hotel
Thouimnil Natives GatherNatives in their Sunday clothing throng
ed the plaza in front of the hotel allday stretching their nocks toward thewindows for a glimpse of the showy uni-forms of tho envoys The assemblagefinally increased to a thousand peopleWhen the envoys emerged for an after-noon drive the natives removed theirhats deferentially and a crowd In vehiclos or on foot followed the carriagesthrough the streets
We desired peace but peace with Independence and honor said Gen Alejandrlno today while conversing with arepresentative of the Associated PressHe impresses one as dignified as dis-passionate and as a keen man of theworld He was educated in Europe anddesigned the remarkable entrenchmentsfrom Manila to Tarlac While reticentconcerning his mission his conversationthrows a ninteresting light on the Fili-pino view of the American attitude
How long can the Filipino andpeople withstand 60000 American troopsasked the representative of Associated Press
CUll Kpslit IndefinitelyFighting In our way we can maintain-
a state of war and the necessity for alarge army of occupation indefinitely YouAmericans are holding a few miles aroundlanlla a narrow line of railroad to Angeles and a circle of country around SanFernando But you are Ignorant of theresources of Luzon We hold the Im-
mense rich productive northern coun-try from which to draw Our people contribute the money and food which main-tain our army and this is done at aminimum of cost
It is an interesting question what thetout to the American people is of main-taining the American troops in the Phil-ippines We do not of course know theamount but It must be excessive Weperceive what an American soldier re-
quires In this climate On the otherkai a Filipino exists with a handfulof rice and a pair of linen trousers Wedo not have to pay our soldiers and canpractically hold up their wages as longan we desire Even without our presentsupply of arms and ammunition we could
your army occupied for yearsA Diplomat Contention
With an expense that grows dailyhow long will your people stand It TheFilipino people do not wish to continuethe lighting We have no army contrac-tors We have no business men makingprofits from the maintenance of ourarmy There Is nothing in It for us norare our salaries large enough to keep uslighting for money and position
Discussing the question of a recognition-by the United States of the socalled Fili-pino government Gen Alejandrino said
freedom of the American prisonerswho have just been turned over to youwas decreed by the Filipino congressYour government has accepted them Itwill doubtless accept any others that ourgovernment may free
He inquired concerning the percentageof sick American troops and when Informed said he considered It small Heasked a number of questions Indicating a
of antiImperialist action by theUnited States Congress and Inquiredwhat would be the effect on the nationalpolicy if Congress should declare Itselfopposed to prosecution of the warand whether antiImperialist sentimentwas growing in the United States
Several inquiries he made also regarding the nature and effect of a joint resolution of Congress

A dispatch from Gen Otis was receivedat the War Department yesterday statingthat the interview with Aguinaldoa rep-resentatives Indicated that the leaderswere maneuvering solely with a view tosecuring recognition of the Insurgent gov-ernment The envoys were informed thatthe only thing the United States wouldrecognize was a white hag and the grounding of arms He also informed the en-voys that such capitulation on the partof the insurgents should come quickly inorder to avoid the consequences of activewar as the United States did not intendto permit any delay in the matter Thecourse of Gen Otis is approved by theWar Department

The iurmlo AppearsThe head of the civic parade began to
pass in review shortly after 8 oclockIt was the most general outpouring that
the city has ever seen All classes of citi-zens participated and the lino of marchwas fringed with throngs whose
wore limited only by the space theyobtain It was different from an
inauguration crowd It was more enthusiastic In spite of the fact that manymen dear to the popular heart have cometo take the Chief Magistracy of the republic The people wer not there asspectators alone They had come to ren-der homage to a man who is not the heroof partisan admirers but who is the idolof the whole nation
The spectacle as the marchers caIneup the length of the Avenue in the glareof red lights under sweeping arches ofstars from thousands of Roman candleswas beautiful and Impressive The be-

The column was headed by Gen GeorgeHarries chief marshal leading a numerous body of bicyclists The wheels wereinterwoven with garlands and wreaths-of flowers and greens and colored bunt-ing and every wheelman carried a Chi-nese lantern Many were in costumeClose behind the splendid Marine Bandcame the veteran organizations and Dew-ey himself a veteran and a G A R manlooked with pride mingled with sorrowupon the gray heads of the men whomarched past with as bold a step us advancing years permitted

WASHINGTON TO MANILADe-
wey and His Great Achievement
One afternoon In October 21st of October to be
clerk In the Navy Department was busy writing letters Quite mechanic-
ally he hammered them out upon his typewriter Presently he took up
another sheet of official paper slipped it Into the machine and quite me
chanically again began another epistle It was very brief and apparentlyIn no way different from thousands of that the same clerk had written upon the same typewriter heading Navy De-
partment Washington he placed the date and then he wrote
Commodore George DeweyWashington
Commodore By direction of the Secretary of the Navy you will atonce proceed to Nagasaki Japan and there assume command of thAsiatic Station
And the clerk with no more thought of the letter than to wish thatsome good fortune would send him to the land of chrysanthemums and almondeyed maidens addressed a long white envelope which eventuallyfell quite unregarded Into a basket with hundreds of others Then itwent to the postoffice mingling with commonplace epistles and the nextmorning Commodore Dewey knew for a certainty that over the Orientalseas his flag would fly On that afternoon in the Navy Department the
first chapter was written It was the beginning of the end whichno mortal could then foresee
It can hardly be said that Commodore Dewey holding the typewrit-
ten paper in his hand was surprised He had known for some days thathe would be sent away He was not going however where his inclination led him He had desired the command of the European station butadverse Influences in the Navy Department would have kept him if pos
sible at his de3k in the Board of Inspection and Survey There was noth-
ing of courtiership or bended knee in Dewey and his independence wasdispleasing to those who controlled the coming and going of naval menIndeed if it had not been for the persona appeal of Senator Proctor tothe President Dewey might still have been a commodore Proctor isa Senator from Deweys native State as well as his personal friend andwas determined that the opposition should be overruled His Yankeepersistency prevailed The Asiatic Squadron was about to lose its com-
mander Admiral McNair Thither it was decided Commodore Deweyshould go
In the story of the siege of Troy Homer describes the gods whohovered all unseen above the warring heroes There must have been akindly fate even at this time over Deweys
A FAREWELL DINNER AND A POEM
When it became known that Commodore Dewey had been orderedaway his friends arranged a farewell dinner He was a companionable-man whom everybody liked and there was no trouble in filling the tableIndeed by the time the list of guests reached nearly fifty the capacity-of the diningroom of the Metropolitan Club where the event was to oc
cur was funy tested and the entries as they say on the race track wereclosed It was a memorable evening Dewey was in happy mood amid hisfriends the menu was delicious the wines numerous and excellent thecompany
The dinner as every one will tell you was the poemof Col Archibald Hopkins the clerk of the Court of Claims It is worth-while to print the poem It is a part of the story
Fill all your glasses fullThe wind s off the
And be It feast or be It fightWe pledge the Commodore
Ashore afloat on deck belowOr where the bull dogs roar
To back a friend or breast a toeWe pledge the Commodore
Through days of storm through days We know our honor II be unstainedof calm Whereer his pennant flies
On board Pacific seas Our rights respected and maintained-At anchor off the Isles of Palm Whatever power defies
Or with the Japanese
And when he triies the homewardAn Admirals banner won
Well hail the day that brings him backAnd laud the duty done
All this remember when Dewey was simply one commodore out offifty one officer among thousands The tribute was all the more conspic-
uous because it was to Dewey the friend and companion the brave sailorthe best type of American citizen that it was tendered No hint yet ofthe glory hidden behind the veil of the future No word at all of the shipswith the nd yellow which lay in the harbor of
THE TRIP f ME ORIENT
Dewey said farewell to his friends m VasL n o and turned his faceto the Orient Across the continent sped traveling in democratic simplicity still all unconscious that be would return crowned with a na
praiseis true that there was a cloud upon the southern horizon Blanco
was struggling against fate in Cuba misleading Madrid with rosy predic-
tions of the ultimate triumph of Spanish arms in that wardistressedisland Sagasta was evolving schemes of autonomy which were in factto prove futile Some hotblooded and radical prophets as they werethought to be were saying that the end could not come until Spain hadbeen driven from the western hemisphere but on the whole war washardly considered as a possibility Dewey himself reaching Yokohama-on Christmas Day saw in his new duties only the usual routine of a com-manding officer What we all want is the Chinese trade he wrote tohis sister and we are gradually getting more and more of it We wouldlose it all if it were not known that we were ready to protect it
At Nagasaki on January 3 1898 Commodore Dewey hoisted his flag onthe Olympia relieving Admiral McNair Then he went to Yokohama tomeet the Corcord and on February 4 he was given a private audience bythe Emperor and Empress of Japan On the Olympia one afternoon heentertained a party at luncheon at which his four Chinese in theirlong robes looked like Buddhist priests He thathe had five vessels under his command nor was there the least touch ofenvy in the knowledge that the Russian Admiral had twenty ships andthe English Admiral no less than thirty Altogether he felt that his lineshad fallen in pleasant places No thought yet of receptionsand luncheons and gay music amid delightful surroundings
WHEN WAR CLOUDS GATHERED
From Yokohama to Hongkong went Dewey and the Olympia Whilein that harbor there came the news of the awful destruction of the MaineThe war cloud no larger than a mans hand when Dewey left Washing-ton now threatenul to blackly cover the whole heavens Scarcely visi-ble before it now loomed up wiui appalling somberness stretched fromCuba where it was heaviest to the coast of China where Dewey saw itsrising shadow He had seen war in the dark days of 1861 to 1865 He knewby experience the paths which it followed in Its dread approach So hebegan to make ready
It needed not the feverish warnings which flashed over the cablefrom Washington to tell him that the inevitable was already InRetain until further orders the crew of the squadron whose
enlistment have expired came the first cablegram It meant that theremight be work for the trained men behind the guns Keep full of coal
that can be had was the next order and Dewey contracted a fuel billone of over 580000 Rendezvous the at Hongkong was ca
bled on 21 and then came directions the fleet provi-sions No mistaking now the meaning of all these orders sent In andtranslated with eager anxiety In the commodores cabin If any doubt re-
mained there was warning enough In the dispatch of February 25 Thiswas written only ten days after the deadly blow to the Maine In Havanaharbor but it discounted the future with wonderful accuracy It said
In the event of declaration of war with Spain your duty will tosee that the Spanish squadron does net leave the Asiatic andthen offensive operations In the Philippines
One can Imagine that Commodore Dewey smiled quietly to himself ashe read this brief but pregnant dispatch from Washington Here was apromise of something different from receptions and luncheons Thousands-of miles from home the glory of the Stars and Stripes the honor of the

DAYS OF IMPATIENT WAITING
The days dragged heavily along To the faroff Orient came echoes ofthe which were stirring the people of the United States the votingof as an emergency defense fund the tedious progress of diplo-
matic correspondence the crucial moment ever approaching and yet post-
poned from day to dayWe are still waiting for the declaration of war to begin our work out
here wrote Dewey to his sister I have seven menofwar all roady forand should war be declared I believe we will make short work of the
reign in the Philippines The insurgents are ready to rise at ourfirst gun and long before this reaches you we may be masters of anila andthe Philippine cities But after all added Dewey war is a terrible thingand I hope some way out of the dilemma may be found without resortingto the very last course
The sublime confidence exhibited by Dewey was typical of the man Ibelieve I am not overconfident he wrote during this period of anxiouswaiting in saying that with the force at my command I could enter thebay of Manila capture or destroy the Spanish squadron and reduce the de-
fenses in one dayAs the climax approached the telegrams from Washington grew more
and more significant Can you purchase a supply steamer queried Secretary Long on April 4 On the same day Dewey answered that he had chartered the British steamer Nanshan with over 3000 tons of good Cardiffcoal on board This was not enough ihe department wanted anothersteamer Dorey purchased the Zafiro as well as the Nanshan naming theprice paid The old Monocacy was dismantled and her men sent to thenewly acquired ships The crew of both vessels were retained This wasthe 6th of April On the ISth the revenue cutter McCulloch a trim littlevessel built of steel came into the harbor of and was added tothe fleet On the following day all the vessels were painted a dull andsomber drab
Meanwhile the Mohican had ben pushing her blunt nose through thePacific heavily laden with ammunition At Honolulu the shot and shellwere transferred to the swifter Baltimore which thereupon began a rac3against time to join the fleet at Hongkong On the 21st she dropped anchcrmuch to Deweys relief and delight and the welcome ammunition was placedon board the other cruisers The latter had been stripped of all unneces-
sary furnishings and were in fighting trim All was now ready
FROM HONGKONG TO MANILA
The period of waiting was at anti On the 24th of April CommodoreDewey was handed the dispatch which he had been anticipating for so manyweeks
Washington April 24 1SOS
Dewey HongkongWar has commenced between the United States and Spain Proceed
at ones to Philippine Islands Commence operations at once particu-larly against the Spanish fleet You must capture vessels or destroyUse utmost endeavors
Dewey was ready On the following day when departure from Hongkong was made necessary by the enforcement of the British proclamationof neutrality the squadron went a few miles north to Mirs Bay a Chineseharbor There was a delay of twentyfour hours while Dewey waited forthe arrival of the United States consul from Manila and then the McCu
loch steamed back to Hongkong with a dispatch from Dewey to SecretaryLong The squadron will sail immediately for the Philippine Islandscabled Dewey the commodore I am thankful we have now received ourorders We have got the Spanish ships where we want them and now wewill fix them wrote Dewey the man to his sister
And all this time there was great excitement all the world over InWashington eager interest without anxiety In Madrid much whistling tokeep up courage The Spanish public was told that Montojos cruisers wouldbe used to destroy American commerce in the Pacific after they had defeated Deweys squadron There was also much lying which was quitecharacteristic as to the great feats which Montojos would perform The onesame note abroad was sounded in London where it was stated as the opinion of the naval officers there that Dew ould make short work of theSpanish fleet
At 2 oclock on the afternoon of We Jay April 27 the Americanvessels left Mirs Bay heading souther tony for the Philippines TheOlympia led the procession wi the HaRloiove Raleigh Petrel ConcordBoston and McCulloch wiLi hc Nanshan and the Zafiro bringing-up the rear From the deck of every vessel the lookout scanned the horizon for the telltale smoke that might disclose the approach of the enemyThere was a momentary peering into Siibiij Bay for rumor had credited theSpanish admiral with the intention lying in wait in that landlocked harbor for his coming foe The boy was empty On to Manila the squadronsteamed hearts beating faster but more with hope than thamoment of conflict drew nigh In the dead of night the procession passedthe forts on Corregiaor Island Morning dawned and before Dewey lay thecity of Manila and the Spanish fleet The rest is history
