New York, Aug 9.-An investigation
which ended this afternoon proved that
the Spanish authorities made grave
mistake in supposing that the schooner
Blanche Morgan WAS Cuban flibuster
about to start from Bridgeport, Conn.
Minister DE Lone reported To the Treas
ury Department. that the schooner was a
filibuster and orders came at once from
Washington tor her. detention. Officers
boarded the schooner and found her hold
full of cartridges, which they claimed TO
be one of the. finest seizures of this year
and were much elated over their success
Aboard the boat was found Rev. William
Morrison of Staten Island, and both he
and Captain Mason Stapleton were de-
tanned Stapieton Immediately after his
arrest telegraphed to -Washinston, and
the investigation which followed, re-
vealed the fact that instead of capturing
a filibustering expedition the officers had
seized one of their own vessels bound for
the Brooklyn navy yard With cartridges
which were intended for war vessels of
the North Atlantic squadron. After the
mistake.was discovered the-ofiicers has
tened to correct their error. They
blamed the Spaniards and declared if
Senior De Lomes agents made only n
superficial examination, they would have
known that the schooner Blanch Morgan
was -egularly engaged in carrying car
