General Wood and the Philippines

Manila, July 28.

Governor-General Wood returned from Samar Province to Manila to-day.. He made no comment other than saying that he had found public order throughout the provinces excei!- ent and everything quiet. He was glad to find on returning te Manila that the people here were taking the Government difficulties quietly. This confirmed his opinion of the calm judgment and good sense of the Filipino common people.

Political leaders are all in the provinces electioneering in the hope of getting a solid backing at the polls with which: to go to Washington demanding Governor-General Wood's recall.—Reuter.
