Now at the Home of His Daughter in Bridgeport,, Conn., and Will , Soon Be Restored to His Normal Condition. Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—A Bridgeport, Conn., special to the Herald says: Admiral Winfield Schley is slightly ill at the home of his daughter, Mrs. R. S. Wortley of Westport. He arrived Saturday evening and soon after re- tiring complained of illness, and Dr. J. G. Gregory of Norwalk was called. | Dr. Gregory said to-day: “After a| few' days absolute quiet Admiral Schiey | will be out again. For seven weeks he was floating on his steel-clad vessel in an atmosphere the temperature of which, he says, ranged from 100 to 105 degrees, without such food as men re- quire in hot weather, with the awful strain of watching and waiting for the Spanish squadron to come out of the| harbor of Santiago. This was followed | by the excitement of the action of July 3’and of the reception of the squadron in New York. Now the excitement has passed and his nerves are relaxed. The | reaction after that experience has had | the effect of completely unnerving him | for a few days, but at the end of that| time he will return to his normal con- dition unless something unforeseen oc- curs.” PRESIDENT TO TAKE A MUCH-NEEDED VACATION After Filling and Instructing the) Peace Commission He Will Pay a Visit to Ohio. NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—The Wash-‘ ington correspondent of the Herald sends the following: Instructions to the military commissioners to arrange for the evacuation of Cuba and Porto Rico and to the peace commissioners for the settlement of the Philippine question are now engrossing the atten- tion of the President. I understand that it is his intention to announce the names of the peace ccmmissioners and formulate instructions to the several bodies before the end of the present week. Important matters coincident to | the cessation of hostilities are also to be disposed of this week in order that the President may leave Washington for a few weeks of much-needed rest. His purpose now is to leave Washing- ton some time next week and review | the troops at Montauk Point. From there he will go to Cincinnati, where he will attend the Grand Army review on September 5. Further than this he has not yet made his plans, but when he leaves Washington next week he will probably not return for several weeks. The Cabinet meetings to-morrow and on Friday will be of unusual import- ance, as it is expected that instructions | to the several commissions—which means the shaping of the administra- tion's policy toward the Philippines as | well as Cuba and Porto Rico—will be finally disposed of. I find there is still a difference of opinion in the Cabinet as to just how far the United States should go in its control of the Philip- pines. The majority of the Cabinet and the President, I have reason to believe, | are In favor of giving the peace com- | missioners such instructions as will se- | cure the permanent cession of Luzon. | The minority will be satisfied with | Manila and Manila Bay. Secretary | Day, who will be a leading commis- sioner, belongs to the minority on this | question. Senator Davis, the other | member of the commission, definitely | settled upon, will, on the other hand, | favor all the Luzon islands if not the ! entire Philippines. | The views of individual commission- ers, however, will not be of particular importance, Ir view of the fact that | the minimum limits of our demands will be fixed in the instructions to the | commissioners as a body. and it is to | be presumed they will carry them out | regardless of their individual views. There is still considerable uncertainty as to the three commissioners yet to | be selected, but T was told to-night by | a Cabinet officer that former Secretary Tracy and Justice White of the United | States Supreme Court would in -all probability be included in the list when | officially announced. -— TWENTY PROSPECTORS RETURN FROM DAWSON Bring $50,000 in Dust and Confirm the Report of New Finds on Forty-Mile.

OREGON MAY BE SENT TO THE PHILIPPINES Will First Go to a Drydock and Then Return to Duty on the Pacific Station. . NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—a Washington special to the Herald say It is the gen- eral opinion at the Navy Department that the Oregon will be the first battleship to be sent into drydock No. 3 at Brooklyn when it is ready.
