SECRETARY ROOT
NOW AT THE HELM
BECOMING FAMILIAR, WITH
DETAILS OF THE OFFICE.
By Far the Most Important Military
Inquiry Is In Regard to tho Situa
tion in tho Philippines-Conference
With Goner U Miles and General
Merrltt Glance at Porto Rico.
"Washington, Auk. 13.-Secretary Hoot
Is beginning to get n firm grasp on
tlio administration of Hip war depart
ment He has boon at tho head of nf
falrs only ten days, yet tills has been
sulllclcnt to show the methods. and In
fluence which his vigorous personality
exerts throughout thf military estab
lishment. At the outset Mr. Knot sot
about familiarizing himself with the
more impoitant details of the depart-m-nt,
much' n a lawyer llrst prepares
his stntemnt of facts as a basis for
legal analyst From Adjutant General
Corbln he secured data showing at p
glance a broad outline of the nimy In
the lleld. From the nuartoiinuHter
genera I he learned" the number of
transports, their capacity and readi
ness to carry troops and tho exact
status of stores. rhithlng and equip
ment, particularly as to General Otis'
forces In front of the enemv. Of the
i-ommlssary General he asked just how
many rations were In nctunt stock at
Manila, how long this supply would
lust, how tiuickly It could be replen
ished and whether theie was ample
margin for every emergency. The
same Information has been drawn as
to ordnance, medical end hospital "lip
piles, engineering and signal equip
ments. Ei'eh bure-m otllcer submitted
n sucelnct tabulated statement, and
this was supplemented by a personal
talk with the secretary. Not only the
oPielrils here, but those at Manila nnd
Havana have ben consulted bv cable
whenever It has been necessary to add
to the completeness of the Information
at hand here. In this way Mr. Hoot
has speedily brought himself Into touch
with every branch of the military ser
vice and has gathered a most complete
and analyzed knowledge of military
affairs. While setting In hand this
administrative machlnciy Mr. Hoot
has at the same time made a careful
Inquiry Into tho military situation In
the Meld.
By far the most Important military
inquiry he is pursuing Is as to the ex
act lluctuntions of the insurrection In
the, Philippines since the day it began.
For that purpose a military map Is now
being prepared by tho adjutant gen
eral's otlice for the private use of the
secretary, showing the advance of our
forces from day to day throughout Gen
eral Otis' campaign, the position and
movements on different occasions, the
retreat of the enemy and Its position
and force from time to time. It will be
a bird's-eye view of the theatre of
military operations throughout the In
surrection. Dates will be written In to
show tho position of the army as the
campaign proceeded and as far as pos
sible It will convey to the eye an Idea
of the scope of the military operations
In the Philippines up to date. The
preparation of this map has been put
In charge of Major Simpson, chief of
the bureau of military Information, who
has been giving his undivided atten
tion to making It complete and com
prehensive. Conference with Miles.
While going over tho military phases
of the work the secretary has conferred
with the commanding general, General

Miles, and with General Merrltt, who
Is second In command, on the military
problems presented, nnd beside the
mllltnry results of these consultations
It has established co-operntlon between
llle executive head of thei war depart
ment and the ranking ofllccrs of tho
army.
Meanwhile, the secretary has an
nounced no far-reaching policies. Ho
proceeds' slowly "while the facts, on
which policies rest, are being assem
bled. If there has been some loose and
rather careless statements as to the
proposed policy, they have probably
been as much a surprise to him as to
the public. So, too, the reports set
olloat before he entered ofllco that ho
would conllno his attention to Cuban
affairs, leaving the Philippines to "tho
mllltnry authorities," have not been
borne out. but on the contrary, the
military exigencies in the Philippines
havp been the subject of his most earn
est solicitude.
Concerning Cuba and POrto Hlco the
detailed administration of these nffalrs
with Its multitude of minor Issues Is
being largely left with his assistants
and chiefs and he Is concerning him
self with the larger questions of the
leconstructlon und future of these isl
ands and with the substitution of or
derly civil government' for the mlll
tnry regime now In force. When for
mer Premier Rivera urged yesterday
that nn order '.e speedily Issued for
municipal elections In Porto Hlco, the
secretary replied that he hoped these
elections would occur as soon as t'n
present unhappy storm swept condlth it
of the Island would permit. When
It was suggested that the desolation
In Porto Hlco made opportune a remis
sion of duties on articles of prime nec
essity, the secretary said he was al
ready conferring with General Davis,
governor gviicral of the Island, as to
that stop.
Mr. Hoot has little time for the crowd
of callers with small requests. He Is
a laborious and methodical worker.
When there was some surprise at his
remaining at his desk until 7 n'elock
Thursday evening, three hours after
the building was deserted, ho ex
plained that It was his habit to con
centrate his attention on Important
work from 10 in the morning until It
at night, usually without the distrac
tion of meals. He has been making
his studies at home during most of the
evenings since he has been here. The
secretary Is quite reserved to oa'ttrs,
listening and Inquiring rather than
talking. His cabinet associates spealc
of his calm and deliberate manner uni
his ready perception of affairs.
ST. JOHN INDIGNANT.
Story of His Criticism of General
Otis Was Without Foundation.
Banff, N. W. T., Aug. 13. The friends
of Senator Heverldge, of Indiana, who
Is taking the waters In tho Candian
National park, are crowding him with
despatches of Inquiry concerning his
health, to all of which tho senator has
answered that he Is well.
Lieutenant Commander Percy St.
John, of her majesty's ship Peacock,
is also here and can scarcely contain
himself with Indignation on account
of his reputed criticism of General
Otis and the Filipino campaign. Amer
ican papers to hand containing the re
ported interviews at Vlctoila have
made the commander furious. Ho
denies the correctness of his Interviews
nnd has, through his attorneys, de
manded to bo set right.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Stret Review,
New York, Aug. 12. Today's stock
market started lower on foreign ad
vices, loiidon manifesting unxlety as
to the future of the money market.
Tho local b 'ars fostered the depres
sion and ttylng to make capital of the
Hltunilcu in France and predicting a
southwestern freight rate war. The
strong bank statement, however,
chanirc'I the tone of the market and
the close showed net gains In the more
active stocks.
In the early dealings thG Grangers
and high priced specialties were the
principal sutferers. Sugar, Brooklyn
Transit, People's Gas and American
Steel and Wire declined about a riolnt
each. The bear.? were disposed to
to cover at the decline and prices ral
lied rather quickly, but remained be
low last night's level. The dullness
and hardness of the market which suc
ceeded continued until the bank state
ment made Its appearance on the tape,
when . the market Immediately burst
Into gtoat animation and developed a
surprisingly buoyant , tone at some
liolnts. The stocks which had yielded
most easily in the early trading came
back most readily nnd as a rule show
the best net gains of the day. The
shorts were In a scramble to cover and
bid up prices on themselves. Chicago
und Great Western debentures soared
uiiwnrdd by successive jumps, Belling
at 103M- at last, 514 above the lowest
and 4 not advance. Tennessee Coal
also made a very vigorous advance to
8G, a net gain of 34. The closing of
the market was active and ilrm at
about the top. Total sales, 201,400
shares.
