"We Want Facts," Said the Hero of Manila,
"Sji S'.iil" as Lemly Read an
Editorial.
Washington, Ot. v Admiral lVwey
ainiitnsiered a rrushini! rebuke to
,laJte A,tvt.vate I.t'iniy iu the Schley

haps, the incident of the trial up to
this t i me.
Letters between Hodgson and Schley

ley rea 'mA lengthy editorial from t tie
New York San to winch Kaynor took
objection aud to which IVwey tools oc
casion to say :
"We den't want sjich staiT as that. ,
We w ant tacts ' '
Kaynor said :
"My objection ijoesetill further . I
protest against stainitii: tiie record of
this court with such vile calumnies
perpetrated upon my client."
Ti.e court decided the editorial must
not be read.
Washington, Oct. V When the
Schley court of inquiry convene,! thin
in, .mill;, the question of calling Rear
Admiral -ampson as a witness was
still unsettled. The general belief was
that he would not be summoned. I; a
summons should be issued, it is said,
the result would be a doctor's certifi
cate stating that Sampson is unable to
appear as a witness.
Lieut. Doyle of the Urookiyn took
the stand this morning to correct his
testimony. The corrections were un
important. The famous "dear Schley" letter
was then brought up again and result
ed in a demand by Lemley that all
papers in eh ley's possession relating
to the Santiago campaign lie brought
into court. Schley's attorney replied
by saying that al! papers of which
Schley lias any knowledge have been
turned in.
Commander Hodgson took tne stand
and was briskly questioned in vain at-,
tempt to make him say lie erred in his
testimony of yesterday. ,
Tbe Hlesband Case Resumed. ;
Washington, Oct. 5. The senate
sub-committee on mil itary affaire to
day resumed investigation f the eo
ca.'led hemp scandal in which Col.
Henry Heistan l and other army offi
cers are accused of conspiring to secure
control of the I'hilippine hemp output.
Assistant Secretary of the Navy Allen,
whose name is include,! in the list of
those a,iegr;d to have been interested
in the scheme, testified that Heis
tand's statement to the effect that he
Allen, bad been asked to take stock
,,r that the matter had ever been
broache-i to him was entirely untrue.
Wbiie Maj. Hawks, prosecutor, was
examining Heistaud during the morn
ing session the latter, in an-wer to a
ooesticn, stated Hawks had whimper
ed. "Wrio whimpered?'' exclaimed
Hawk9, excitedly.
"You," reidied Heistand, calmly.
'You lie." shouted Hawit, shaking
h;s ringer at Heistand. Hawk- was
quickly called to order and the inquiry
proceeded .

AN ANTI-TREAllMi LAW
lirtnnell. Iowa, Passes Novel Ordinance
Anent Drlnklrm. j
tirmiii'll, Iowa, Oct. .'. - I'he city
council has just adopted an ordinance-1
w hich niaken it a cr ime for two or I
more persons to conr, gal and buy j
each other drinks, 1; is held Unit;
"treating" promotes drunkenness.
Die exact verbiage of the ordinance is
as fol lows :
"That it shall bt unlawful for two
or more persons to cmrenate within
the limits of the city or tirinnell, on
any street or vacant or unoccupied ,
property; on or about anv lumber
yard, in any car, or on or about auy
railroad ground or stockyards, in or'
about anv barn, stall',' or corn crib,
storehouse, elevator or depot, or in
anv other place, for the purpose of
drinking beer or any Kind oi intoxi
cating liquor, or for the purpose of
creating a disturbance or doing or com
mitting any disorderly act."
It is hoped this law will do away
with much of the drinking here,
tirinnell has always been a strong
prohibition town, and when Josiah '
B. liriunell founded the place he en
deavored to provide in the deeds that
no lots should be sold tor saloon pur
poses. Iowa college, located here, is
also a powerful factor for temperance,
and the city council is merely acting
in line with public opinion.

A SOLDIER'S UPIN10N.
Albany Boy Thinks Philippine War Will
be an Endless One.
A letter received fr ui Claud B.
I 'avis, an Albany boy, who is serving
in the Philippines with Company 1,
Nineteenth United States infantiy, de
scribes well ttie condition of affairs on
the islands of Cebu and Bohol, where
the Nineteenth has been stationed,
he savs :
"I see so much in tbe home papers
of late about the cessation of hostilities
in the Philippines and the bright
prospects of peace in the near future
that I, after a service ,f nearly two
vears in these islands, feel justtied in
expressing a soldier's opinion of the
matter. In and around Manila it is
true that affairs are assuming a more
peaceful attitude. Manila is will pro
tected, so that a man can lie down at
night with some assurance of a peace- .
ful night's rest. But how vastly dif
erent do we rind the conditions on
some of the other ulaous! My time,
has been passed ctiiejy on tne islands1
of Cebu and Bohol, and to these is
lands I will confine my remarks. We
have no newspaper correspondents here
to send glowing accounts to the -tat-'S
of the battles) waged and won with a
savage foe; consequently we are sel
dom heard from.
"Theae happenings look little like
peace to me and, what's more, I
don't believe they will ever give up.
We can burn them out and kill them
one by one, and thus quiet them for
a time. But the spirit of combative
ness, born in t',e:r savage breasts,
will never permit them to remain
quiet, and it is my belief that we can
expect permanent peace only when
the last Filipino planks his little
brown feet on the golden shore. "
LOW INTRODUCES C.TOKER.
As the Paramount Issue In New York
Municipal Election.
eth Low, in tus first speech accept
ing the anti-Tammany nomination fori
mayor, forced Richard Croker to the
centre of the political stage as his
chief campaign is-ue.
Mr. Low defined the Tammany lead

ing New York as a "private gold
mine" (or the enrichment of himself
and hi- political aeutenants.
This attack on Croker wa the fei

a- an indication that the anti-Tain-many

day a loser to Shamrock in the actual
elapsed time, hut winning when the
time allowance of 1.1 seconds was tak
en into account . I'he race today was
the greatest ever sailed in the hist ry
of yachting, the wind was to Sham
rock's g,KHi at the tirst, but by dying
away later it favored Columbia. At
three times in the run today, ."sham
rock was ahead, and looked like a
winner. The agreement was that the
yacht winning three of the five races
would be winner oi th" series; hence,

Story of the Day Prospects Bright.
II ig'ilan Is, O-t. 4-W.tii two clean
cut victories to her credit, Columbia
sailed iortti from her 11 i n,! this
morning to meet the Knglish challeng
er for th" deciding contest in the inter
national clip series.
At S o'clock the wind was howling
almig at an eleven-knot ci.p. The sea
was smooth as glass and everything
seemed to conspire to make it an ideal
yachting dav. Near : o'clock, the
wind increased in strength and was
siii piping along from sixteen to
eighteen knots. The sea soon became
crested with white caps and the
schooners running along the Jersey
shore were pounded bally. About y
o'clock, the racers took a tow and left
for the starting point.
The Fiuht tor Position.
It was a rattling battle to see wliii h
boat would secure the weather posi
tion. When the warning gun was fired
Capt. Sycamore laid his boat off a trill,
and pulled out from under Columbia's
lee. Shamrock then came up into the
wind, followed a few seconds later bv
Columbia. Wrieii the starting gun was
tired, both boats stood away for the
line, Columbia in the lead and ham
rock to windward. The American
crossed the line eighteen seconds ahead
of ,-hamrock.
At 1 1 :30 Shamrock was Ahead.
Immediately after the s'art the race
developed into a luiting match, in
which ." ham rock held the upper hand
during the early stages, running up
and sailing on even terms with Colum
bia. The American boat, however, soon
drew away and at 11:10 o'clock led by
nearly a minute. i-hamrock then
picked up a better bre.-.ee and pas-e,l
Columbia at 1 1 : o'clock. Shamrock
sped along like a Meeting ghost and at
11 PiO o'clock led by about a minute,
for Advantage In Windward Run.
The regatta committee decided tin
race would be fifteen miles to leeward
and return. The wind had lightened
-oniewhat when the preparatory gun
was tired. Both sloops kept w- p,
windward of the hue. It was evident
the rival skippers were going to tight
it out to -ee who would get over la-t
and still be within the handicap time
of two minutes. I'he last yacht over
the line in a run befor- the wind ba
the advantage, a- the rear boat is al
ways fir-t to rated favorable puff- of
w iic I.
Shamrock Turned Ahead.
The -tiamrork turned the outer
mark a minute ahead of Columbia.
The boats made a pretty race of it in

cate Lemley read a statement setting
! forth the coal resources of the Hying i

ineiit show ing that Schley's squadron
could have steamed at full speed mi
lder forced draft as follows: Brooklyn, j

TO TAKE UP TRUST ISSUE
Attorney General Knox Said to Be Pre
paring an Opinion.
Washington, Oct. 1. The question
of trusts will he again brought up in
the next congress. Tint Sherman anti
trust law is not broad enough to deal
w ith the gigantic combinations of cap
ital which have recently been formed.
President McKihley recommended this
subject as one for careful consideration
by congress, and the house passed an
amendment to the Sherman act. On
the la-l day of the senate this amend
ment, which had been the subject of
much debate, was recommitted to the
committee on judiciary. That ended
the etfort in regard to trust legislation
by the hifty-sixlh congress.
President lioosevlet is on record as
saving in his Bpec-h at -t. Paul on
Sept. -':
"It is not only highly desirable, but
necessary, that there should helegisla
tiiu which shall carefully shield the
interests of wage-workers and which
shall d i-cri ai mate in favor of the hon
est and humane employer by removing
tbe disadvantage under which he
stands when compared with unscrupu
lous competitors who have no con
science and will do right only under
fear ,,f puiii-hiiient. N',,r can legisla
tion stop only with what are termed
labor qiiesli. ,11s. The vast individual
and corporate fortunes, the vast com
binations of capital which have mark
ed the development of our industrial
system, create new conditions and ne
cessitate a change from the old attitude
of the state and the nation toward
property. "
Attorney (teneral Knox is understood
to be preparing such an opinion for
the president, and it might be said
her,- that, while Mr. Kn,,x was for
many years an attorney for the Carne
gie company, he ,lisis--d of all his in
terests in one ,,f the corporations ab
sorbed by the steel trust before the
com in nation was elfected, and did o
at a sacrifice of about $o,iMI in the
price paid to him (or his stock. Mi
di, I this because he had decided to ac
cent Pre-ident M K mb-y 's offer of a
place in his cabinet as attorney gen
eral and Wished to be absolutely free
from cors,rat-- itnlueiice after becom
ing an olhcial of ths federal govern
ment. Attorney lo-neral Knox will
as-i-t the pres. lent to reach an opin
ion regarding trust legislation that will
be practical and at the same time le
gal. WKAY WILL BUILD CABLE
Wants no -lublsdy To Tap the Orient via
the Pacific.
Washington. Oct. 0. President
Koosevelt has under considerat ion a
proposition for t he construct ion of a
cable to the Hawaiian and Philippine
islands which is not to cost the govern
ment a cent. John W. Ma, kav, presi
dent of the Postal Telegraph and Com
mercial Cable com pan les, and also of
the newly organized Pacific Commer
cial Cable company, called on the pres
ident a day or two ago and offered to
lay a cable from San Francisco via
Honolulu and liiiam to Manila. No
subsidies nor indemnities are askt-d.
All Mr. Mackay wants is permission
to land the cable, and an assurance
that t h- government will give I11111 its
business, which is now very large. He
proposes to give guaranties to lay the
cable and maintain it without any cost
hi the government, the cable company
agreeing to give the government busi
ness right of way, and in case of war
or other public necessity, permit the
hue to be taken over by the govern
ment. The company furthermore promises
to reduce the far eastern rates from 40
to i0 per cent below those 11, ,w charg
ed. Mr. Mackav said his company
would hind its-df to begin work early
and cmi, lele the connection between
-an I raiifisco and Honolulu within
nine mouths and the entire cable to
Manila in two years.
It is everywhere conceded that a
cable with the new connections of the
country is a pressing necessity, and
emigres" ha" for several year" ,1 iscuss
el the subject without result. Various
plans have been proposed, most of
them calling for large m: "is of public
money, either through heavy subsidies
or through Ike government building
the cable Itself. 'The estimated cost o
the work is about t I.i,'M),oini.
It i" "tated that the consent of con
gress is unnecessary to t h permit to
lay the cable, and that the state de
partment ba" lull authority, through
the direct loll of the president, to grant
perinis-ioii. In all probability the de
sired per 111 iss ion will U- given by the
president.
