NAVY DEPARTMENT INDIGNANT
PUBLICATION OF WAINWRIGHT
REPORT UNAUTHORIZED.
Also Claimed That the Story of the
Victory Over Cervera's Fleet Was
Not Genuine.

Washington, Oct. 13.-The publication
of what was represented to be the re-
port of the Wainwright board on the
parts taken by the respective vessels
of the United States fleet in the de-
struction of Cervera's squadron, caused
considerable commotion in the navy
department.
In view of the fact that the report
had not reached Washington at the
date of the publication, an inquiry was
set on foot by the department to as
certain, first, whether the publications
were accurate, and, second, who was
responsible for the discourtesy involved
in the publication of an official report
before it had reached the navy depart
ment.
Commodore Wainwright, the head of
the board, arrived in Washington yes
terday, and very promptly disclaimed
any knowledge of the publication, stat
ing that he had left instructions that
the report was to be transmitted by
the recorder, Lieutenant Capeheart, to
the commander of the North Atlantic
station, Captain Philip. The comnlo-
dore, in answer to an inquiry of the
department, returned the following dis
patch, directed to Captain CROWN
shield, chief of the navigation bureau:
Brooklyn. n. Y, Oct 12.-Navy Depart
ment, Washington saw report of VAIN
wright board first time tonight. Articles
in papers today manufactured by a re-
porter entire; no word of resemblance
between the two. PHILIP
Commodore Philip has not yet trans
mitted the report to the department,
but something is known of its general
character, and this knowledge tends to
show a misconception of ting functions
of this board. Admiral Sampson, who
appointed the board, chose the naviga-
tors of the vessels in the fleet that were
engaged in the battle of July 8. He
made but one eXception-in the case of
his own flagship, the New York-refus
ing to nominate a member. 1t was di
rected to ascertain and report positions
of the vessels CHgaged in this action.
It did not exceed this instruction in
any point, and its report, outside of the
repetition of instructions under which
it was operating, comprises very little
more than a chart on which the posi-
ton Of the vessels are defined. This
chart is the report of a combination
of all the data obtained in the sepa-
rate charts made up by the various
navigating officers of the fleet. The
report is said to be unanimous, being
signed by the navigating officer of the
Brooklyn, along with the other. 1t
draws no conclusions, makes no deduc-
tons and neither takes from nor gives
credit to any officer of the American
fleet, from the admiral down.

but, aside from the restraining in
fluence of the militia, no progress has
been made toward permanent peace.
The idle miners were excitable and
determined, while the Chicago Vlrden
Coal company has shown no sign of
purpose to abandon its plan of operat
ing its mines with imported negroes.
Yesterdays shooting has resulted IN
IA deaths so far.
The number of injured will not much
exceed last nights estimate of 20. OF
these a few are in a critical condition
The coroner's inquest brought out no
evidence of Importance today. After
the examination of about 80 miners the
hearing was adjourned until tomor-
row.
meeting of the executive commit
tee Of the strikers was held late this
afternoon, Chairman John Belgar as
serted that not a man among the Thlel
& Pinkerton detectives stationed with
in the stockade had been sworn in as
a deputy sheriff. He followed this
statement by declaring that all OF them
could be held as accessories on charge
of murder
The matter was discussed and de-
cision made to employ counsel and lay
the matter before the grand jury.
The excitement of yesterday prior to
the arrival of the negro train was
equaled tonight when it became known
that a special train, consisting OF one
box car, three apparently empty
coaches and a caboose that passed
through here at 5:25 this evening bore
two carloads of negroes taken through
here to Springfield yesterday The
train went south and by a clever ruse,
succeeded in passing through Vlrden
quietly and without interference. A
big crowd of miners was at the station,
but the militia held them in check.
When the train stopped at the Stock
ade, Captain FEWER, who was In com
mand, then shouted: Don allow
anyone to disembark from that train
STOPPED BY SOLDIERS.
The gate was opened and file of
soldiers rushed out on the double quick
with fixed bayonets and lined up along
side of the train. General Manager
Lukens made a formal request that
their employees be allowed 10 land ana
enter the stockade. Captain feIvler oe-
clined to grant this. Then manager
Lukens put it in the form Oh d demand,
but the officer replied that ne was
under orders from Governor Ianner TO
prevent the disembarking OF any
negro miners at the works. and that he
would have to carry out these lnstruc-
tons General Manager Lukens pro-
tested in vain and the train pulled out,
headed south.
By this time the advance guard OF

the soldiers already here.
DETECTIVES DISARMED.

Captain Charles A. Fervier, COM
handing company B. Sons of Veterans,
of E,lgin, Ills, is in charge of the stock
ade built by the cago-Virden Coal
company. With part of his men he en-
tered the stockade at a. m. and dis
armed the detectives from st. Louis
and the local deputies employed by the
operators. They offered no objections
to Captain Fervier's command to lay
down their arms. Soldiers with fixed
bayonets patroled the stockade, and
the detective and deputy sheriffs, dis
armed and without overcoatS, walked
around and shivered.
This afternoon all the arms and am
muniiton of the Chicag o-Virden Coal
company were confiscated by Captain
Fervier, commanding the state militia.
There are 125 Springfield rifles and $500
rounds of ammunition.
Two hundred striking miners who
have been sleeping in the Miners union
hall for several weeks were somewhat
surprised on coming from their quar-
tiers at daybreak to find soldiers on
picket duty at the door. Each man
was met with Hold up your hands. -
The request was good naturally as
scented to.
Each man was thoroughly searched,
but fruitlessly, for firearms. Among
the crowds were several negroes, and
from outward appearances there ap-
parently existed the best of feeling be-
tween the white and black union min
ers.
NJ Turner, one of the guards sta
toned in the yards south of town TO
announce the approach of the train
carrying the negroes, says he fired the
first shots yesterday, as a signal TO the
main body of miners near the depot.
The miners had agreed, he said, that
ten shots in rapid succession should be
the signal that the train was approach
ing. Turner says he fired in the air,
and the men on the train answered
with a volley into the crowd where
upon the firing became general.

strikers gathered at the depot, mad ad-
vanced up the track to within 100
yards of the stockade. The presence
of ameed bluecoats in the lookout
boxes evidently halted them. as they
remained there until the train passed,
when they greeted it with waving mats
and cheers for Governor Tanner, who
they believed, had been instrumental In
starting the blacks on their homeward
journey.
After the departure of the train Mr..
Lukens made this statement: When
the special train carrying the blacks
arrived this afternoon at the mine the
troops, under orders from Governor
Tanner, refused to let them get off the
train, and they were compelled to go
through.
81 protested to the captain in COM
mand of the guard at the mine at this
action, and told him there was no law,
except the law of force, that would
justify this action. He replied that he
had strict orders from the governor not
to permit the blacks to land, and that
he was compelled to follow instruc-
tions''

STRATEGY BOARD

The Strategy Board was all in
their places this morning with the
exception Of the Office boy, who had
left a note on the secretary's desk,
telling him that he had heard that
the fish was biting down on McKiu-
ley bayou reyenouslY and that he
would donate his days stipend to
the Board to yut in the kettle drum
fluid.
The doctor said it was plain that
the boy must be discharged as he
had COTTON so trifling Of late that
they could not depend upon him to
even keep the deas at rest with
flea powder, and that the cuspadore
had not been cleaned out but once
since the Board was organized.
The dry goods man did not want
to act basty in discharging the boy
as his parents traded with him and
he did not want to do anything
hasty, he thought a reprimand
would be sufficient.
The Colonel said he did not want
to cut the cable between the boy
and the government crib either, as
it was a very hard matter to get a
government job-speaking from
experience, as ne himself had won
his title lighting tor the place he
now held and be did not propose to
throw any obstacles in the boys
way.
The doctor said he would with
draw his objection, but that he
thought the boy was taking from
the government that he did not
earn every time he signed the pay
roll for his check.
This question being settled, the
next complaint was filed against
the press censor, who was called up
to explain why he did not put up
the bulletins with regularity than
he had displayed for the past seve'
raj Gays.
The press censor said he had nc
|
funds on hand, that he had visited
the various subtreasury stations
on which he had heretofore drawn
upon tor money to pay for the ser,
vice, and he was not given the
"Hot Springs shake" by any means
but that the Klondike hand was
extended to him, and his reception
made him feel that his Office could
be dispensed with, if he only had a
prt c sdent, where an officer resigned
he believed he would tender his
resignation and let the people guess
at what was transpiring beyond the
water.
The Board asked, and gained his
consent to hold onto the Office
awhile longer, as the step he pro
posed to take was a dangerous one
to the government-there not being
a parallel case of the kind on rec
ord and therefore no rules govern
ing the acceptance of a resignation
in the departments at Washington
could be found, and he would place
the government in an awkward po-
sition by such a move.
The doctor, on consulting the
shadow in the door said he had a
patient to visit, while the dry goods
man said he had to be off also
this left the colonel, who closed up
the office and wended his way to
Wright's Oak Hall to get his mid
day meal of chopped cabbage and
cucumbers.
