Philadelphia North American.
When the cablegram in which Admiral
Sampson presented to the people of the
United States the great victory gained at
Santiago by "the fleet under my com
mand" reached the Navy Department on
the morning of the Fourth of July, 1S9S,
it was taken direct to Secretary Long.
Breaking the seal, he grasped the Im
portance of the news, and knew it would
cause joy throughout the country. In the
big reception-room outside his private
suite there were gathered a score ot news
paper correspondents, who had scented an
event of magnitude and were feverishly
awaiting developments. Pushing open the
swinging door, the Secretary appeared
among them with the bit of yellow flimsy
paper trembling In his hand, as If with
excitement at the momentous tidings of
which it was the bearer.
"Gentlemen," said the Secretary, In a
voice which he tried, hard to keep natural,
"I have something here which I think
will be Interesting to you."
Adjusting his glasses, he then read off
very slowly Sampson's famous dispatch.
The silence was profound until the last
word was reached, and then such a shout
went up as must have moved the great
marble building's stout foundations.
It Is In this, very room that the court of
Inquiry which Is to determine whether or
not Admiral Schley Is a coward because
of his actions at the battle of Santiago Is
to sit. It is fully 100 feet in length, and
about 40 wide, with a lofty and beautifully
decorated celling. The most conspicuous
piece of fresco work Is a huge American
shield, supported by an anchor and laurel
leaves. Looking down from the walls are
the portraits of former Secretaries of the
Navy, Including that of Secretary Crown
lnshleld who, by a strange coincidence,
bears the same name as the head and
front of the caSal against Schley. The
Toom contains at present a fine model of
the Holland submarine boat and a large
bronze bust of Columbus taken from the
Spanish warship Cristobal Colon, de
stroyed at Santiago; but these will prob
ably be removed when the court begins
its sessions.

Swimming is useful In twp ways: In
enabling a person to get to a place quick
ly, and in helping a person to stay afloat
or to continue moving slowly for u. long
time. There are times, as lii going to the
rescue of a drowning person, or in getting
to a float or pier against a strong tide,
when a -few sirong, fast strokes are all
important, and the ability to swim a
short distance very fast is extremely use
ful. But If those few strokes fall, the
ability to stay afloat becomes of first
importance, and many a so-called, good
swimmer has been drowned because he
never learned the art of swimming a
long distance in a leisurely manner.
For' the art of swimming to be of prac
tical use to a person it should be so
cultivated that he can rely on It to sup
port him In almost any emergency. One
should be able to swim at least a dozen
strokes very fast, and one should be able
to keep on swimming easily for at least
an hour without touching bottom.
Endurance in swimming comes from
two things; the time of the stroke and
the adjustment of its force to the
strength of the body. A person can walk
for an hour or two without becoming ,ex
hausted, and a Summer girl can dance
for six or eight hours at a stretch, but
very few persons can run ,at full speed
after a street-car for a block without los
ing breath. It is so in swimming. Very
few outside of those who have been
specially trained for it can swim any
great distance at a. high speed, but any
one can keep up a certain rapidity of
stroke for very long time. What this
rapidity will be depends on tho strength
of the individual, and should be ascer
tained by practice. In the castaway
stroke, used by sailors in the English
navy, the swimmer makes only about five
strokes a minute, and does not move
more than two feet at a. stroke, but a
man has been known to keep it up for
two days after being lost overboard from
a boat on the Goodwin Sands.
The best way to adjust he stroke of
the individual is to keep it in ecact time
with the breathing, which will be about
20 strokes a minute, or a little faster.
If the strength is exerted when the lungs
are full and the chest is firm and ex
panded, It can be used to better effect,
and if the time of the exertion is always
the same as the time of breathing, tho
whole operation becomes harmonious and
falls Into a rhythm which requires very
little effort to keep up.
Another reason is that when one does
not breathe in exact time with the stroke
the breathing must bo hurried to keep
up, or the stroke must be slowed to avoid
the unnatural shortness of the breath
ing. It is the stroke which should be
adjusted, and not the breath. Nothing
else is so exhausting as irregular breath
ing, especially in swimming, and nothing
elso so quickly brings it on as Irregular
ity in the stroke, or a'stroke twhlch is too
slow or too fast for the natural time
of the breath.
The whole art of swimming is directed
to bring about this adjustment. Ten
years ago American champions used a
style of stroke which would bo laughed
at today. The well-known Trudgeon,
which consisted in swinging both arms
forward out of the water, the body being
on the chest, with the head and shoul
ders well out, was so exhausting that no
swimmer in this country could keep It
up for more than a hundred yards, even
when specially trained for the effort. The
reason for this was that it was out of
time with the breathing,
American experts began about six years
ago to take up tho English side stroke,
which differed from the American side
stroke In making the stroke of the upper
arm after the kick and not .at the same
time. This alternate motion resulted In
doing away with the peculiar jumping
up-and-down motion of the American
stroke, and left the body deeper In the
water, so that the head did not come up
at all, the mouth being turned on one
slde just enough to Inhale the breath as
the kick forced the body forward, and
made a wash or trough in the water just
deep enough to clear the swimmer's
mouth. x
The head being carried by the water all
tho time the feet came nearer the sur
face, and all the power of the stroke was
used to propel the body forward, where
as a great deal of the power In the old
style stroke was used In bobbing tho
head up and down. This saved power
and added greatly to the endurance of
the swimmer, it being much easier sim
ply to propel a floating body than to pro
pel and lift at the same time.
The next step was to try the return
over the water of the under arm, which
had always been carried forward under
water. At first this seemed like- going
back to the old Trudgeon stroke, but
there was this great difference, that in
the Trudgeon the whole head was above
the water line, and the stroke of both
arms was the same, sweeping from side
to side. In the new stroke tho face and
head are buried after the kick, and the
under arm Is lifted out and thrown for
ward, while the whole body is sub
merged. The next kick makes the wash
in. which the swimmer breathes, the tipper-arm
stroke follows, the head and face
disappear, and the under arm is brought
out and thrown forward.
When this stroke was first tried it was
thought to be as exhausting as the old
Trudgeon, but on account of its having so
much less work to do, all the power being
stroke, shall practice a style .of side
swimming that will keep the head down
In the water and bring up the feet, so
that tho entire weight of tho body may be
carried by tho water almost as ir floating-,
and that will direct the power of pro
pulsion to sending the body straight
ahead, on a line with the surface, and
not waste it in llftirfg the head and
shoulders out of the water at every
stroke. Having mastered a stroke of this
kind, the next thing to do will be to get
in the habit of using It In exact time
with the breathing which is found to
be most natural and easy for the indi
vidual and can be maintained for a long
time without inconvenience.
The importance of knowing the breath
ing interval and of adjusting one's self
to it might be illustrated in many ways.
For instance: It is impossible for any
swimmer to get out to sea from the
beach when the high combers are com
ing in at a greater speed than 16 to the
minute." If there is any point, such as
a pier, which these combers pass so that
you can count them, and you find that
they are coming in faster than 16 to the
minute, you will find it impossible to
get out through them, because there Is
not time enough between them for you
to breathe. ' You must duck your head
to meet each comber, or dlvo through It,
and when you come up on the other side
and take a gasp of breath you must dive
again before you can make a stroke,
and so you cannot make any headway.
It requires a very strong swimmer, cap
able of taking several very fast strokes,
to get out through breakers that are com
ing In as fast as 12 to the minute.
In coming ashore through breakers, tho
swimmer should never let tho combers
overtake him, but should keep his face
out to sea when he gets into tho break
ers, and let them drive him ashore back
ward, ducking Into each big wave, so as
to prevent It from throwing him on the
beach. By choosing the right moment he
can always take a sudden turn when
quite close to the beach and get beyond
the reach of the next comber and safe on
his feet, while a less skilled swimmer
would be caught and dashed on the shore
and rolled out again in the undertow, per
haps never recovering his feet again.
No matter how skillful a swimmer may
become, he will never acquire endurance
without confidence. If he is afraid to go
out 100 yards from shore' without a boat
he will never be a swimmer In the true
sense of the word. Cramps will never
drown him, because they do not add an
ounce to his weight. What drowns all
so-called good swimmers Is heart fail
ure, or want of nerve. If you will trust
the water it will never fall to support
you as long as you do not starve to death.
America Is Europe's Foe.
Atlantic.
The European regards America as a
dangerous and relentless foe, and the fact
that Europe has forced on America these
measures as a means of self-defense sig
nifies nothing. The European sees In
America a competitor who, while refusing
to buy, throws her wares on every mar
ket, and who, while she drives tho peas
ant from his land, reduces the profits of
Industry which support the wage-earners
of the town. Most ominous of all, he
marks a rapidly growing power, which,
while It undersells his mines, closes to
him every region of the wide earth where
he might find minerals adapted to Its
needs. Lying like a colossus across the
Western .Continent, with her ports on
either ocean, with China opposite and
South America at her feet, the United
States bars European expansion. South
America and China are held to be the only
accessible regions which certainly con
tain the Iron, coal and copper which Eu
rope seeks, and the United States is de
termined that, If she can prevent it. South
America and China shall not be used as
bases for hostile competition. Regarding
South America her declarations are ex
plicit, and during the last 12 months her
actions In Asia have spoken, more emphat
ically than words.
The Metal Markets.
NEW YORK, Aug. l. As was the case
during the last week, dullness prevailed
In local metal circles again today. The
absence of information from "abroad and
the fact that the strike has not been
settled had a depressing effect on busi
ness. Trading during the short session
was along conservative lines and values
were nominally unchanged. Tin was dull
at $27 65; lead dull, $3 47i; spelter dull,
90c$3 95; copper nominal, at 516 5017,
for Lake and $16 67 for casting and
electrolytic. Iron markets ruled Inac

PACIFIC COAST WEATHER.
properly
adjusted to the time of breathing a
swimmer could keep it up for some time,
:and there are today at least a dozen men
who can race a mile with it.
Many modern champions think that
this style of swimming is quite new and
some of the strokes now In use are
named after their supposed Inventors,
just as the Trudgeon was named after
the man who first brought It to England.
It must have surprised many crack swim
mers to see, when they visited the Pan
American Fair, that the stroke which
they have arrived at after so many years
of study and development Is practically
the stroke which has been used in Ha
waii since prehistoric times.
It is unfortunate that no person who
was a critical swimmer or knew the fine
points of the art ever visited Hawaii and
brought home with him a clear descrip
tion of the stroke there used. What
pictures we have of the Islanders rep
resent them as swimming with the head
and shoulders very high, facing the way
they are going, and using the arms as
In the Trudgeon. Any one who visits
the Hawaiian village at Buffalo will find
there two swimmers, one a mere . boy,
who have the art of submerging the head
and carrying both arms forward over the
water reduced to perfection. The boy
is simply perfect.
When Captain Webb swam tho English
Channel he used' the breast stroke, the
side stroke being very little known, but
he swam with his face In the water all
the way. That Is, instead of keeping the
mouth and chin with the whole, back
head high and dry. Tie raised his face
to take a breath as he brought His arms
back, and sank his face and head under
the surface when he kicked, so as to
save the labor of carrying his head. J
The two things necessary for a person
to master who Is desirous of learning
endurance In swimming are: To keep the
head down in the water so that all the
strength of the arms and legs may be
utilized for propulsion, and to time tho
stroke so that it shall agree with the
rate of breathing, which is easy and
natural. This will require, first, that the
swimmer, after "having mastered tha ele
ments of the art and acquired confidence
enough to try some variations in his
