Scrlppe-McRae League.
Washington, January 25.—It is no
longer any concealment in administra-
tion circles of critical condition of
affairs in the Philippines. Hen. Otis
reports far from encouraging, and de
scribes menacing attitude wh>ch Agu-
inalio and followers assumed. Epi-
demic of small pox among Clen. Mil
ler's forces also feared Another
danger is the recognition of the Phil-
ippine republic by fore gn govern-
ments, especially by Germany and
Spain. In view of this it may be said
a crisis has been reached. The presi-
dent feels he cannot wait much longer
on the Benate and orders may be sunt
to Dewey and Otis to declare the
supremacy of the United States.
