At the morning session Pres- ident Love delivered a brief address on the Philippine situation. Other addresses were made by J. H. Earl of Boston, Mrs. Comegys of Philadelphia and Mrs. Han- ah White of Lebanon. At this after- noon’s session the pricipal address was by William Lloyd Garrison of Philadelphia, who took for his theme “No Compromise With War.” Mr. Garrison spoke In part as follow: year ago when, in the interest of peace, we net upon this spot the war with Spain was in full b Then in the national cye a Spaniard the type of treachery and oppression, and the sorrcws of the suffering Cubans filled our hearts What space twelve ths covers.

The lady Is com- ult of her unceasing efforts to make the pletely fagged out as a r affair a success, but piuckily states that she would do it again for the pleas- ure of seeing the boys in blue made happy. The beautiful decorations seen in the banquet hall were planned and ex- ecuted by Mr gsett and a few other members of the decoration commit- tee. In her effofts to sce that everything went off without a hitch she worked early and late superintending things, answering innumerable Inquir- ies from the country and visiting mcrchants with a view to securing thelr afd. That she was successful was evidenced by the a nearance of the interior of the breakfast room. Her efforts were highly appreciated by the mem- bers of the assoclation and although she is fatigued she is contented. Mrs, B tt is the sister of Captain Thomas Sparrow and Corporal W. G.

ADMIRAL WATSON IS SERIOUSLY ILL Suffering From Heart Disease on His Ship and No One Permitted to See Him. WASHINGTON, Aug. and Navy Register, in its morrow, will say: Recent letters from Manila mention the' illness of Admiral Watson as the source of great anxiety to his officer: The illness is the effect of an accident which occurred tq his launch while he was on board on July 1l. The Balti- more, his Mlagship, has been for some time at Cavite, leaving Manila so as —The Army issue to- Requiring to make a trip up the river, the admiral started in his launch. A strong wind was blowing and as the launch, the Undine, went under . the bridge over. the river, known a§ the Bridge of Spain, the strong current, aided by the wind, set against the lit- tle boat and she was taken out of her course and thrown against a hawser from a sailing vessel. This rope carried away the awning, and, striking the smokestack, took that also. Admiral Watson, sitting in the forward part of the launch and wit- nessing the full danger of the accident, showed no conscious appearance of having been startled exc vely by the oceurrence or in any way of having suffered by it. Later, however, in lact before his return to the flagship, seri- ous heart trouble developed, and in consequence he was regarded as ex- tremely ill ‘'up to the date of the letters of the 17th.
