Eranoral Otis Thinks Filipinos Aro
Eoady to Yieldi
THEY ABE TIRED OF AGUINALDO.
Our Commander In tho Philippines
Kxpootn n Cosxntlon of Hostilities nt
Any Hour, Hut Troops Will Still Be
Sent to Manila.
Washington, March 18. There was
much reticence shown at the war depart
ment to discuss a cable dispatch from
General Otis which was regarded as
most important by those who read it, as
Indicating that hostilities, might cease
very suddenly In the Philippines and a
collapse of the Insurrection come at any
time. The reasons for the belief of
Genernl Otis that a climax might conlo
at any hour was not stated, but his as
sumption was based on the favorable re
ports he had received from various
sources that the Filipinos were tired of
the war and Aguinaldo's leadership. It
is believed at the war department thnt
the method In which the Americana have
conducted the fighting has done much
to convince the Filipinos of the useless
ness of trying to drive out the United
States farces. The fighting has been
of a different character from that to
which they were accustomed when the
Spaniards were In possession of Manila.
General Otis' cable has caused a great
deal of gratification. It was sent to the
president at Thomasvllle, Ga. The prep
arations which have !cu under way to
send farther troops and supplies to the
Philippines have not been curtailed,
however. The light batteries which
General Otis requested In the cable of
Thursday night will be sent, as they
may be useful in future operations and
in case of disturbances In distant parts
of the Island,
Colonel Denby, the third member of
the Philippine commission, is expected
to arrive in Manila today, and, with the
other members of the commission, Pro
fessor Schurman, ProfesJor Worcester,
Admiral Dewey and General Otis, an
organization will be effected and the rep
resentatives of the president will be
ready to treat with the natives.
In speaking about the situation Gen
eral Corbin said that the reports from
Manila showed that the insurgent lines
were cut in two and there wns no com
munication between them, and the de
partment expected a collapse of the
Insurrection. As the president's repre
sentatives were now at Manila they
were empowered to treat with the in
surgents and bring about a settlement
of the trouble. In his opinion this could
be expected in a day or two, and the
situation would begin to improve at once
In the Philippines.

making It Impossible for any one to

Tho lire was the most spectacular

with people watching the St Patrick's

front of the hotel facing Fifth avenue
was filled with spectators watching the
marching men and floats In the street
The day was all that could be desired
and unusually large numbers of peo

men and police. As soon as tho flames
were discovered shooting from the
windows that part of the St Patrick's
day procession which was near tho
building came to a halt, and In a few
minutes the parade was dlsbandod.
In addition to the regular guests of

people in tho lower floors of the hotel,
those who had easy access to the
street and the bar, commenced to pour
out of the building in great numbers,
but Its very soon become apparent
that a great majority of the occupants
of the hotel wero either panic stricken
or were unable to make their way to
the ground floor. Windows wero
thrown up on every side of the build
ing, and guests mostly women, in all
stages of terror, made their appear
ance -and commenced to make frantic
appeals for assistance to the crowd
standing below. As the flames gather
ed about them they became more and
moro terror stricken, and presently
several of them stood upon the narrow
window sills and beckoned to the spec
tators below that they ware about to
leap to tho streets. The men collected
upon the sidewalks, readyto offer any
assistance that they could, and In the
meantime a number of women left the
window sills and dropped to the street.
In most of the cases the efforts to
catch them and break their awful fall
was unavailing, for they struck the
sidewalk, and In most cases broken
limbs were the result.
Many Ilorolo Itescuos.
As soon as the firemen could get
their scaling ladders Into position they
climbed tho sides of the building and
entered every window, and many cases
of heroic rescues wero witnessed by
the throng in the streets. At the cor
ner of Forty-seventh street and Fifth
avenue, directly across from the hotol.
Is the homo of Miss Helen Gould, and
at nor direction many of the Injured
were carried there and were treated
by physicians and nurses, whom she
had sent for. In the meantime the
chief of police had telephoned to every
hospital In the city, asking that as
sistance be sent to the fire sufferers.
Ambulances forced their way through
the crowds as quickly as possible, and
the Injured people who had made the
frightful leaps from the hotel windows
were placed in them and removed to
the hospitals. Several occupants of
the hotel appeared at the windows of
the sixth and soventh stories, and even
on tha roof, and leaped to the streets
from these points. Very few of them
escaped either Instant death or In
juries which resulted In their death a
short time later.
Building Enveloped In Flames.
In the meantime the entire building
was being enveloped in flames, which
shot out from every window and form
ed a picture which struck terror to all
those who were witnesses to It With
in 40 or 45 minutes after the fire first
broko out the walls on the Fifth kve
nue side showed every Indication of
falling, and presently, with an awful
crash, they struck the asphalt covering
of the street In front of the hotel and
eaused tho hundreds of people who
were standing there to scatter In every
direction. This fall weakened the
walls on the Forty-sixth and Forty-
seventh sides, and they followed a mo
ment later. When the walls fell the
bricks and mortar and twisted girders
and corrugated Iron filled the streets
on the throe sides of the hotel.
The doorsteps and Iron fences In
front of the houses on the opposite
aide of tho street from tho hotol were
wrecked by the falling walls, and the
amount of debris piled In tho streets
was so great that travel will be Im
peded for several days. The northwest
Wing of the hotel continued to burn
for a half hour after the walls of the
rear part of the building fell. The
firemen continued to play streams
upon the flames and also upon all the
adjoining buildings, Including Miss
Gould's residence, which seemed In
Imminent danger of catching flro, but
ihe flames were brought under control
before thsy could reach any of these.
Tbrilllnc; Soeues lu the Hotel,
There wero many thrilling scenos la
the hotel during the early stages of the
Are. As soon as It broke out a hallboy
discovered the flames while he was
passing Immediately over tho rooms
occupied by President HcKInley's
brother, Abnor Mclvlnley, and his fam
lly. The boy pulled n chain attached
to the Are alarm, but the chain broke.
and then he cried out an alarm of Are
and ran to the Aoor below. ,
The blaze was then licking up every
thing on the Fifth avenue end of he
building, and the lad, when he got to
tho floor above the main hall ran Into
the American dining room and give
the alarm to the guests there. Only
a few persons wore In the dining room
at the time, and they escaped. When
the boy reached the main Aoor War
ren F. Leland, the proprietor of tho
hotel, was In tho rear of the long hall,
and the hoy shouted to him that the
building was on flro. On Mr. Loland's
Instructions the clerks tried to save
all the books and papers, and the boy
then rushed down the basement stair-
Way shd alarmed the women who were
at work In tho laundry. It Is bolloted
that alt of them escaped.
Dnrlnir IIchcho by Firemen.
One of the most daring rescues ef
fected by the firemen oecurrcd on the
fifth floor on the Fifth nvonuo front
An elderly woman was scon at a win
dow, and two firemen succeeded In
reaching tho window Immediately un
derneath. One of thorn climbed to
tho coping over the window on which
he was standing, and then stepped over
to where tho woman was waving her
hands despairingly. Ho then swung
the woman clear of the window and
landed her safely in the arms of his
companion, who, with the assistance
of several othor flromen, passed the
woman down to the Btreot.
Abner McKInloy, brother of I'resI
dent McKlnlcy, had four rooms on the
ground floor of the hotol. Mrs. Mc
KInloy and her daughters, Mabel and
Helen, occupied tho rooms with Abner
McKlnlcy. Mrs. McKlnley and Miss
Helon were entertaining Mrs. John
Sherwood, the author. Both Mrs, Mc
Klnley and her daughter and ber
guest got out, assisted by two un
known men, but they do not know bow.
The women became separated. Mrs.
McKlnley went to the residence of Rev.
Dr. Morgan, at No. 3 East Forty-flfth
street, and Miss Helen McKlnley to
tho restdonce of the banker, Richard
T. Wilson, at No. BI1 Fifth avenue.
Miss Mabel was out for a drive.
The McKtnlcys went to tho Manhattan
hotel, whero there was a Joyful re
union of tho family, Mr. Abner Mc
Klnley having been telephoned for at
his office at 30 Broad street. Tbey
lost everything except the clothes they
wore.
Tho Orlc-tn or tho Flro.
Regarding the origin of the Aro The
Herald publishes the following: John
Foy, a waiter of the hotel, was pass
ing through the hall on the parlor
floor, the first above the street He
was making his way to a place where
ho could catch a moment's sight of the
parade. In front of him walked a man
patron of the hotel. At the angle of
the passage near Fifth avenue and
Forty-sixth street tho patron drow a
match and lighted a cigar or cigarette.
He tosed the match aside. It was still
blazing, and foil Into the folds of a lace
curtain. In an Instant the flimsy fab
ric was ablaze, and Instantly the flames
shot to surrounding draperies. This,
from all the accounts, was the origin of
tho holocaust
Tho loss on the contents of the
building is almost complete, and Is
estimated at $1,000,000. Tho salvage
men managed to savo $20,000 worth
of paintings on the first floor of tho
hotel, but very little olso was carried
out Many of the guests who lived at
tho Windsor regularly lost valuable
Jowelry and bric-a-brac and furnish
ings, among them being F. F. Flower,
a nephew of ex-Governor Roswell P.
Flower, who, among other things, lost
a package of Jewelry valued at 13,000.
The Windsor for many years was
one of the most exclusive hotels in the
city, and was In the height of its glory
up to ten years ago. It was the ren
dezvous of all tho great Wall street
operators from the days of Commodore
Vanderbllt and Daniel Drew. Jay
Gould, who lived opposite, was there
nightly. President and Mrs. McKlnley
always stopped at the Windsor, and
celebrities of all kinds were its guests.

CURED BY CUTICURA
For ten years I suffered untold agonies from
Eczema, my lover limbs being to swollen and
broken out Uutt could hardly go shout. My
brother, a physician of thirty years' practice,
and other ptinkdarui of splendid ability, tried
In vain to effect a core and signally failed. I
became absolutely disheartened, and had lost
aU hope, when a friend Indaoed me to give
Conccna. Remedies a trial. I rued tiro
cakes or CtmocnA Soar and two boxes of
Coticora (olntmeel), and it resulted In an
abioluti and pirmantttt curt.
