Otis to be Relieved at His Own Request
Major General Elwell Otis will be detached as governor general of the Philippines and commander of the Pacific Department after the arrival of the new Philippine commission, then ordered back to the United States. The move follows Otis’s request for respite. the change is timed with Manila’s commission arrival late April or early May. The shift marks a major policy departure as the commission takes on broader war department authority. General Henry W. Lawton’s body will lie in state at Arlington tomorrow after arrival from across the continent. Andrew Carnegie’s offer for a $30,000 free library in San Antonio has been accepted by the city.
