The Admiral Was Kissed By a Concourse of Women. In the Navy Department. on n C Aug. 27. Admiral Schley received a great detaoa etratTon al tt navydepattment. He came to the department quite early, and after a call upon Acting Secretary Alien, emerged feo.n the man door of ti e secretary’s office. His presence became known, however, and as t"n as he was seen cheers rent the air from the ctau. v ho alembic 1 to S I glimpse of the hero of Santiago. The officers and clerks from the departments crowded the corridors up to (he navy department until it was impossible to pass through. They crowded around the admiral, ea- Iry Xhing forward to shake his hand. The lady clerks were even more demonstrative and the admiral was kissed by old and young without dis crimination. It was finally necessary to form a line ant, pass the crowd around through the large rooms of the secretary’s office in order.' to give them a chance to shake hands with the admiral. Many prominent a.my officers took part in- the demonstration. PAY FOR WHAT YOU WANT, GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR—IN THIS WAY YOU WIU.

Special to The Herald. New York. Aug. 17.— Secretary Alger i talked at length to the Journal today | upon the condition of the troops and of ] the ramp*. He dtarueard the tranaport horrora. j tb? appalling amount of alckneaa In the home rampe, the alleged interview In wh'ch lien. Nelaon A.

The men will now have everything that tbelr condition demand*. I have given Instruction* that everything which (Jen. Wh"e!er or hla surgeons order for them shall be supplied. It la the desire of (he Pres ident and of the war department that these men should be treated as they deserve; that they shall have every thing that mopey and attention can procure for them.” "But what of the transport horrors, Mr. Secretary?” I suggested. "Who was responsible for the overcrowding and the lack of proper food on board of those veasels?'' "That matter,” he replied slowly, has already been thrashed over. \Ve investigated each case carefully, thor oughly, nnd It is impossible to fix t|ie blame on any responsible source. We cannot, we do not, find any officer* pt fault, only men who are employes of steamship companies, and whom we cannot hold or compel to answer.” "Will there be no Investigation fur ther than this one?” "Oh, it Is not time to discuss that new,” exclaimed Secretary Alger, with a touch of Impatience. “We have too much to do to provide for these troops. Investigations will not he p matters any. Of course, there have been mis takes, grave mistakes. I realize that. We all realize It. But they are being remedied as fast os human agencies con move. They are things of the past. We must give atenticn to the Important work at hand.” The discussion was turned to the conditions of affairs at the home camps Chicksmauga.

"It is to be expected,” said Secretary Alger, in-artswer to questions, "that tn places where large, bodies of soldiers are. congregated, especially during the hot summer months, and of necessity in Southern state*. that some sickness will so low.

I believe I should have no fault whatever to find with it. "If there has really been any lack of food, clothing, beds, tents or medicine lit has not been due to the iark of wll llingnesa on the part of the war depart ; meot to furnish them, but to the neg [ lect of those who ought to know what i Is needed to order Ihem. "I am not disposed to criticize In In ! dividual insiancea. because during the 1 past two daya there has been a great (hang* gfor the better at camp. I per sonally visited nearly every patient In the hospitals nnd asked each what complaint he had to make. Not a sln ! gle one had uny criticism to offer as to lild treatment. "In some eases I found men lying on the bare floor. When I called atten tion to the fact that twenty thousand Lots bad barn sent to the camp for the ■ use of ihe troops there was hurrying and scurrying to get hold of them. They ivere found and put in use.” "What about the water furnished the troops?” "It comes from i a well capable of furnishing 750,000 gallone a day. I tasted it and found it much better than the water 1 used to drink when In the army myself. It has been chem ically analyzed and pronounced abso lutely pure. Two thousand gallons of milk which have been ordered to be shipped dully for the troops have proved a God-send.” “Ir it true that the hospitals are so crowded that it is Impossible to ac commodate patients as they arrive from the incoming ships.” “They were not congested this morn ing. Two or three more ships have ar rived today, hut more hospital tents are going up, and as the Seventy-first and Second Massachusetts regiments will go away co furlough teday. and other regiments tviiich served at Santi ago are to fellow. I se no reason why the hospital service should not he am ple and effective. II tell you that I shall ho the happiest man in America when all those sick boys have recovered and are safe in their (homes once more,” added Gen.

The President Is Urged to Pursue That Course, London. England, Aug. 27.—Tho Phil ippine commission In Europe has ad ,dressed u letter to President McKlnDy, regarding the appeals made to him by high Homan Catholic ecclesiastics In America to protect the religious order rh the Islands. The expulsion of th» fri ars, the commission contends, Is a "nec essary antecedent to moral sanitation." The letter names particularly the arch bishop of Manila arid the bishops of j Nueva Covlu an<l Nueva Csseres, | fuse acts of hostility against both natives and Americans and against the Jesuits and other respected rellglour in stitutions are condemned by everyone. The commission urges President Mc- Kinley to "aid the Filipinos to suppress the Immorality of the diabolical Inull tutkins fostered by those monks," and the leletr concludes as follows: “Your name can never be associated with that of the friars; and the sense of right of the noble nntlon, at whose head you are pla<yd, will never permit the ever victorious and humanitarian Stars and Stripes to protect them.” Further Cases Develop.
