A STATE SECRET OUT.

The sailing nj the Cruiser bennington from
La Iiiertad with Four salNadorian tefu-
gees. Made Necessary by Continued sick
ness Among the Members of Her Crew,
MAY Lead to the solving of hnotty
Quest .on.
WASHINGTON July a7.--The sailing
Of the lnited States cruiser Ienning-
ton from La Libcrtad. Salvador,
Wednesday for san Francisco was
carefully guarded secret in the state
and navy department. Secretary Her
bert Yesterday afternoon said that II
wa, true that he had been compelled
10 order the vessel home. but he had
notified the consul at Salvador that
the status Of the four refugees on
board the vessel was in no way altered.
a. the unitci States had not yet de-
termincd whether they should be sur
rendered or not. II was under
stood that the question was con
sidcrcd al the cabinet meeting
Tuesday. when Secretary Herbert
explained that considerable illness had
occurred on the Remington: that her
surgeon had been Frustrated with
malarial lever. and had been unable TO
attend others who were i'll. and a. the
repair. Ia the Charleston would not
enable that vessel to relieve the Ben
nngton until the second week in Au-
gust. il seemed necessary to bring the
ship away from the tropical coast at
once. The bennington had been at La
Lihertad since May Il. and during her
two months stay there had not been
7 free from illness aboard a single day.
! In all that time the Salvadorlan~ had
been unable To form stable govern
ment which could he recognized by the
. United states.
The cabinet decided that the Ben
nington should be brought home AT
once. and that GEN. Ezcta and the
other refugees could he transferred tn
the Charleston at San Francisco and
Immediately sent back To La Libertad
to he delivered To the local authorities
a soon a. proper judicial proceeding
against them could be assured.
The scheme Of sending the refugees
back. it is thought, will depend en-
tircly upon the action Of any United
States Judge in ease Gen. Ezeta and
his companions. on he arrival OF the
bennington at san Diego or san Fran
cisco. apply for a writ of haheas corpus
on the ground that they are restrained
on board the ship against their will
no charge being preferred against
them.
In the opinion Of competent lawyers
In the state and navy departments. the
United States could not resist such al
application. and any court would re
lease the men. The departure of thu
Bennington for home i therefor,
looked upon as the end Of situation
which has been extremely embarras,
ing To the United states for over a
month.
