N0 PRESCRIPTIONS FOR THE ADMIRAL

Every One on the Fleet at Manila
Suffered Front the Enter-voting Cli-
ninte—Respousibilities Have Not
Rested Heavily Upon IIinl.

WASHING-TON, May Sin—Surgeon J.
E. Page of Admiral Dewey's flagship,
the Olympia, has arrived here on leave.
He came ahead of the Olympia to avoid
the long delays of the sail via the Suez
canal. Surgeon Page has been 011 the
flagship ever since Dewey took com-
mand, seeing him daily and having
general charge of medical affairs, so
that he is in a position to give an in—
telligent View of the admiral’s health
and general condition. He said:

“Admiral Dewey is in no sense a sick
man, but is as well as any man could
be after spending ayear in the tropics.
I was on the Olympia at the time he
came aboard, and from that time to the
present I do not believe there has been
any appreciable change in his appear-
ance, weight or general condition. Any
one who thinks he is a physical wreck
should hear the admiral on the quarter
deck when he gets aroused. He is the
gentlest man living, and yet he expects
every man to do his exact duty, and
when there is any shortcoming the ad—
miral will be heard from in no feeble or
sickly manner. Of course every one in
the fleet has suffered in health more or
less during the last year owing to the
terrific and long sustained heat and the
enervating climate. It takes all the
life out of a strong man and undoes his
energy and ambition. In that Dewey
suffered with all the rest of us. It was
particularly arduous during blockade
duty, when for long stretches no man
could get ashore.”

Surgeon Page was asked if Admiral
Dewey’s responsibilities had not weigh—
ed heavily on him. ,

“I think not,” he answered, “and I be—
lieve it will be found that he has just
as much nerve as the morning he
fought the battle of Manila Bay. He is
a man who carries responsibility lightly
and does not let it break him down. On
the morning of the battle he was per—
fectly cool, and only once throughout
the action did he show signs of anxiety.
That was when the head gunner re-
ported thata our ammunition was run-
ning short. This was about the time
we pulled off for breakfast, and it had
rather a depressing effect. But it was
quickly offset when the officer of the
deck reported that the Reina Christina
and Castilia were afire. That was the
turning point, and the admiral had no
anxiety after that. ”

Asked if he had prescribed for Dewey
of late, Surgeon Page said: “No, he has
no need for prescriptions. During the
last year he has not once asked for a
prescription or taken medical advice ex-
cept in a casual way. If he wants any-
thing, he se’nds down to the ship’s
apolhecary and gets it. His habits are
so regular that he needs little or no
medicine. His smoking and drinking
are in perfect moderation. He eats well
and sleeps well, and it is one of the
recognized offenses on board ship to
tramp heavily over the admiral’ s cabin
afte1 he has retired.

“It has needed a pretty calm man at
the head of affairs," said Surgeon Page,
when asked as to the rep01ts of fric—
tion “ith the German naval officers. “I
know nothing of any d1ffe1ences, but‘we
all felt that much reliance was to be
placed on the admiral’s tact and com
serratism as a means of avoiding any
possible difference. Throughout the fleet
he was universally admired, not only
as a naval commander, but for his
statesmanshi p and discretion.”

President \Vill Stop at Springfield.

WASHINGTON,May 25.—Representa-
tive Gillette of Massachusetts called 0:1
the president‘yesterday to arrange for
a. reception in Springfield while on his

pleasure at the invitation and said he
would be glad to meet the people of
Springfield. It was his desire to have
nothing so formal as a. banquet, as Mr.
Gillette had suggested, but simply to
meet the people at a reception.
