Conmoss will now mill it- thiinks to those of tho president ami the people cabled to Commodore Dowcy hy Secre tary Long us .soon as tlio ntllcial report of his extraordinary victory h. Manila harbor reached Washington a victory resulting in the destruction of eleven Spanish vessels carrying more than no hundred gum and tuoro that 2,000 mon, the capture of heavy shore bat teries and the subsequent control of tlio Philippine Islands, all without thu loss of a man and without thu serious injury of a ship and with only six men wounded by minuting tlio joint reso. lution reported by the house commit Uo on naval ulVairs extending thu thanks of congress to Commodore Dowey. It will also supplement thu promotion to acting admiial, cabled to Commodore Dewey. The feeling in Washington is that nothing is too good tor him. Troops aio to be sent to aid him in holding the I'hillipiuo islands as quick as they can hi assembled in San Francisco and the ships prepared to transput t them. (iood new-, is daily and limit ly ex pected from Admiral i3.impiiu'.s licet, which is "11 on a tiii ii Known only to the president nnd cabinet. There ure good leasotis tor thu belief that SmnpMiu's Hist object is the Spanish licet reported to be headed for Porto Kico, and that if he fails to lind thu licet he will turn his attention to thu capture of I'm to Kico. Naval olllcers will bo .surprised if ho linds any mote Spanish warships than the thrcu or four that are known to bu in the liar bur at ban Juan, Porto Kico, because the general belief is that Spain is afraid to bring her big Hoot into Amur icati waters. Kico will of and will help to shorten the war. whether Hie i nil of the wat was in sigl t, and an no! Ill.t tu uj so, hut 'hat is their game. Under tlio new volttteer army law conlirmatloti of the nominations of reg imental olliecrs by thu s natu is not re quired, as it is for similar olliecrs in thu regular army. The president ap points them, and in the cists of those so far appointed ho has delegated the appointing authority to Secret try Al ger. V Seuatot Sewall has not qiialilied as major general in the volunteer army, although Ins nomination was confirmed hy the senate at the same timu that thoso of General Fit. Hugh Lee, Jou Wheeler, James II. Wilson, and thu .even brigadier generals of thu regular army to be major generals wete acted upon, and it is not probable that he will. If he becomes general he cannot retain his seat in the senate, and the present understanding is that he pie furs thu latter. V Few Ameiicans Imvo any idea of the extent of thu I'hillipiuo Islands, a foot ing upon which was so gallantly cap tilled hy Commodore Dewey and over which the American llag now Hies. Saturday's issue of tlio daily publica tion of the department of statu known as "Advance Sheets of Consular Ke pints" is devoted entirely to thu Phil lipine Islands, which ate about ten pur tviil larger in atea than New Eng land, Nuw York, Nuw Jersey, Mary laud and Delaware combined, and which have an estimated population of from 8,000,000 to 10,000,009. Hut probably the moat astonishing thing about this publication, to must people aro tlio official tigurcs showing that the United States has more commerco with thu I'hillipiuo Islands than docs all tho rest of thu world combined. There is great reticence at tli j war department concerning thu movements of tho army in connection with tho in. vasion of Cuba. Many conflicting stories aro in circulation, somo of them probably started by our officials to oonfuso th enemy, but thu world is liable to luaru that tho United States troops have taken a Cuban port at any time. A Spanish spy was arrested in Wash ington last night who is said to have drawings of some of the coast fortifi cations in thu vicinity of United States ports He was followed huie from Chicago. ...ff.,. .ii'.'f Dl1iJk,fl .
