OTIS' ARMY at D DECISION OF THE CABINET Decision of the Administration Effective Force of 22.000 Lawton and Shatter. WASHINGTON, April 19 A confer ence held at the White House today, between the President, Secretaries Al ger and Long, and Adjutant Oorbin re sulted in the confirmation of the orig inal decision of the Administration to at present refrain from availing itself of the authorization conferred by Con gress to organize a volunteer army of 33,000 soldiers in addition to the pres ent regular army. ' Gen. Otis latest cablegram descrip tive of the conditions in the Philip pines was carefully considered and it was concluded to accept liis estimate of the military needs of the case, so that as he has already Indicated his present army is sufficient for the purposes, he has in view, the decision is tantamount to a resolve to avoid recourse to the ad ditional volunteers. A cablegram was sent lo Gen. Otis, however, calling forth the necessity for -withdrawing the state volunteers from the Philippines, again asking him whether he would need more men after he lias received the reinfoixements now on the wray to Manila or under orders to embark as soon as transpor tation can be secured. Otis now has a force believed to ag gregate about 22,000 effective men. Secretary Alger informed him that the troops now on the way would give" him an army of about 30,000 men after allowing for the return of the state volunteers. This is believed at the War Department to meet all of the needs of the summer season. It is in tended to withdraw one regiment from Porto Rico and send three regiments now in this country to the Philippines as soon as they can be equipped and transported there, though it is not believed that they will reach Manila for two or three months. It is also stated that the conditions in Cuba are such that it is quite probable some troops can be withdrawn from that island for service in the Philippines. The matter of returning the volun teers was also discussed. The depart ment is-irranging for their return to the United States as soon as the nec essary transportation can be secured. To General Otis has been left the selec tion of the organizations to bo sent homo first, and, it is expected that he will follow the plan that he has out lined of relieving first the men who have been longest in tho Philippines. CHICAGO, April IS. Maj. Gen. Shafter passed through Chicago today en route to his brother's .home in Syca more, 111. Discussing the Philippine war he said: "If Gen. XAwton says 100,000 men are needed in the Philippines in order to effectually end (hostilities and bring the natives to terms I should say that undoubtedly an army of such proportions is required. We of the army Jiave supreme confidence in Gen Lawton's judgment, and it is -his prac tice to underestimate rather than ex aggerate when passing upon existing conditions. "I don't know Otis never saw him," the general added. "I think Lawton had a rigSt to criticize the tactics of the commanding general if he believed them to be unwise. "The Filipino is a suspicious fellow, just like the Cuban. He can't see the good intentions of this Government and he never will until we subjugate him with powder and ball. "I have said before that it may be necessary to kill half the population of the islands in order that the remain ing half may be lifted from their semi barbarity to the civilization we are ready to give them." "And let ime tell you," General Shaf ter concluded, impressively, "that I do not believe our troubles in Cuba are over by any means." SYCAMORE, 111., April 18. Gen. Shafter is at his brother's home in this city suffering from an attack of ma larial fever. His physician says the attack is not serious and hopes to see Gen. Shafter well enough to go to San Francisco in two or three days NEW YORK, April IS. A special to the Sun from Washington says: Sec retary Alger said to a Sun reporter this evening that 5000 of the volunteer troops in the Philippines will sail at once for San Francisco on the trans ports now at Manila. Just what vol unteer organizations will be sent home at .this time the Secretary does not know, but lie expects to be informed by Gen. Otis within a day or two OMAHA, April IS.
