Epeclal to The Time Democrat. New York, July A special to the World from Washington ays: Tbe Lome-coining of Geo.

Leonard Wood and the going ont to the Philippine of Secretary Taft are taken by general offi cers of the array to mean that a crlsi In Philippine affairs can not be averted much longer. Trouble has been brewing In the insular possessions for more than year. There ia friction between Got. Wright and the military officers. Ap parently, Gen.

Wood has become so seriously Inrolved that his need of surgical attention has been a must welcome excuse for coming home. Enemies of Wood believe he has come so near the line of a break with his friend the President, thst the General believes hi interests need his personal attention. His chief interest ia to keep I'resldent Roosevelt in the notion of making him Lieutenant-General and chief of staff in succession to Gen. Corbln. Some time ago it was admitted officially that it is the plan of the President to have Gen.

Hates succeed Chaffee and then, when Rales retires before he is really compelled by law so to do, to have Corbln succeed to the vacancy. At the time it w-as expected by Wood and his friends that official acknowledgment would be made that Wood had been selected to succeed Corbln. When there was no such acknowledgment, disturbing (ears were communicated to Wood, and in abort time he obtained leave to visit the United States. Information and belief at the War Ie-partment 1 that Wood will ask to be transferred to the United States, because he has served for more than two years In the archipelago. But he will not ask for the transfer if thereby he places In Jeopardy his chances of getting to the head of the army.

It is the understanding that be is going to put the question tip to the President in such a way that the latter will have a fine opportunity of declaring himself on the subject whether Wood is still the man he has in mind as the successor of Corbln. Just what the friction la about there la no clear understanding here. Secretary Taft has kept that affair under cover, and every detail of it ia in his hands. The mere fact that the Secretary continue his Journey, notwithstanding the fact that Secretary Hay Is dead, and that the chances that he will be asked to go to the head of the State Department are largely In his favor, la regarded as sufficient indication of the gravity of the row. Secretary Taft is represented a being dissatisfied with the course of Gov.

Wright In many matters. By personal conference it is hoped that a better understanding can be brought about. Taft la of the belief that as he has been Governor of the islands he Is apt to make insufficient allowance for the difference of opinion between himself and his successor, and that the difference, especially on account of the proposed railroad building, can be adjusted by having a heart-to-heart talk. The friction between the military authorities and Gov. Wright Is due to the fsct that the latter Is not In sympathy with a strong military policy of dealing with the islanders.

It is hoped by tbe administration that Secretary Taft will tie big enough to smooth out matters. TROIBLE WITH EYES. Wood Makes Trip from Philippines to Consult Specialists. Special to The Times Democrat. Boston, July 5.

Because of trouble with his eyes. Major Gen. Leonard Wood made the Journey from the Philippine Islands to Boston for the purpose of consulting an eye specialist. Gen. Wood this morning called upon Dr.

John Morgan, the same specialist whom President Roosevelt consulted last week while in Boston. The trouble with Gen. Wood' eye is said to have been caused by the glare of the tropical sun. Gen. Wood would say nothing about affairs in the Philippines.

He will go with Mrs. Wood to the Cape, where his mother lives, to pass the grester part of bla three months' leave. He will call on the President at Oyster Bay before he returns.

Special to The Times-Democrat. New Tork. July 6. Gen. Peter Haines and Major B.

M. HarttxL of the I'anama Canal Commission, were la the cltr to-day, en route for Panama, and left this afternoon. Intending to remain In Panama about a week. The purpose of their trip Is to secure some information which it la necessary should be presented to the Advisory Board of Engineers, which convenes next September. In speaking of the resignation of Mr.

Wallace, Major Harrod said: "The members of the commission were greatly surprised and disappointed, aa was the President, at Mr. Wallace's resignation. Bat Mr. Stevens, the new appointee, I am certain from all that I have heard of him, la more than capable of filling Mr. Wallace' place.

It ha been suggested In some quarters that Mr. Wallace was hampered and restricted In hla work and was not allowed to carry out hi Ideas a he could have wanted. There Is no basis whatever for such a statement Mr. Wallace had a free a rein as any man at the head of such a gigantic enterprise could expect. He was not hampered In the least." Major Harrod heartily Indorse the President' order making Charles E.

Magoon. now Governor of the canal sone. Minister to Panama as well. "Mr. Magoon will make an extremely acceptable Minister," Major Harrod commented.

He 1 a man of commanding presence and is possessed of the finest courtesy. He Is living now some hundred yards beyond the canal sone, on Ancon Hill, which lies between the canal zone and the city of Panama, and he should experience no difficulty In fulfilling the duties of both offices." The reports of the unhealthlness of the climate of Panama for foreigners, he de clared, had been grossly exaggerated. "Of course It must be remembered," tha commissioner ssld, "that the Panama climate. In addition to being tropically warm all the year round. 1 also a very moist one, which makes It specially enervating.

The death rate among tha native themselves 1 high, averaging from forty to fifty per thousand, or double the normal rate In this country. Still this heavy mortality accountable In a rreat measure to the Insanitary conditions and squalor In the midst of which the natives live."

621 Canal Street I Ilil mutinies on board ships of tbe Black ea fleet were tbe result of the rotten system In vogue in the Russian navy, the blue jacketa being neglected and the officers living ashore, except during the brief cruise. Capt. Clad', In a long review, affirma that the question of food was a mere pretext, the real cause being deeper In the complete lack of sympathy between the men and their officers, most of whom, he say, are disgustingly incompetent. Owing their positions to influence at St. Petersburg, they care nothing for good service or the well-being and contentment of the men.

Other niters, some of whom evidently are high In the service, but who write under assumed names. In a most savage fashion declare that the bureaucratic regime In tbe navy Is only reaping what It has sown, and plainly Intimate that similar conditions exist In the army. "Fear," ay the Slevo. the sole basis of discipline In the army and navy, and It will prove as poor an Instrument for keeping the rank and file loyal to the throne a It ha In the suppression of discontent among the people.

Striker st the PatlloS Warfca Are Fired Oa. St. Petersburg. July 5. Cossack fired on' the PutllofT works striker this morning.

The trouble was started by the arrest of a youth who was entering the works. The policeman who took him Into custody suspected the young man of, having dynamite In his possession. The latter, on being made a prisoner, drew a revolver and killed the policeman and was himself wounded by a bullet fired by another policeman. The striker quickly ctrgregated In the Peterhofi road. and Cossacks were ordered to disperse them.

The soldiers charged, nsing their whips, and then fired a volley, causing several casualties among the strikers. The ex-citement In the district Is intense. In ao Independent Investigation mad by the Associated Press, it was shown that the soldiers did not lire on the Putl- loft workmen, but there was more orj less rioting, during which ome of tha striker fired revolver and officer were stoned. Revolutionary proclamations were scattered broadcast among the crowds and many arrests were made. At 6 o'clock this evening Cossacks and Infantry patrols were about the works and the men were In an ugly mood.

New Tork. July Special cable to the World from Odessa says: Tbe mutinous battleship Knlax Potemkine, scouring the Black s)ea. strikes more terror to Odessa' citizens than when she lay In this harbor. Then tbey knew where the rebel was, at least. Now her absence, her flight here and there, provokes fears that are augmented by wild rumors.

These fears are well founded, for the mutineers on the Potemkine are In frightful straits, lacking coal and provisions. The greater the mutineers' desperation the more danger to the city, orderlj cltlsens recognize now. The mutineers live are doubly forfeited. The charge of murdering their officers alone would necessitate their extradition from any port. Their only apparent cnance to escape as long as the other vessel of the Black Sea fleet remain loyal is to demand finally lenient treatment, perhaps full pardon, under the threat, as an alternative, of destroying this or some other town on the Black Sea coast.

Besides, unless they are starving, the rebels can bold cp all Russian shipping on the Black Sea. Communication between Odessa auj tlonists, Batoum, which Is fortified, being too dangerous a haven. In tbe absence of supporting wsrshipa. It is doubtful whether the authorities of Tbeodosla dare to resist the demands of the mutineer. The American steamer Garonne, with refugeea from Port Arthur on board, is at Theodosla.

All the foreign shipping in the Black Sea has been warned against the Knis Poteiukine. which, in view the desperate 'situation of her crew, will probably not hesitate to hoist the skull and cross- bones. DEMASD OX A TOWS. Mntlaeei-s Want Coal and Provls-loaa of Varloaa Klada. Theodosla.

London, July It Is understood that the movement of the Kniai Potemkine are engaging the serious attention of the powers, who are exchanging view on the possible necessity of taking Joint measur to protect neutral commerce on the sea. According to the Associated Press dls-pstche from Vienna, however, nothing will be done, even in the shape of Joint representations to. the Russian govern ment, except in the last extremity, it being desired to avoid wounding Russia' susceptibilities.
