THE HARVARD SHOOTING.
What Colonel Dudley Hns Lenr"e''
About killing of Prisoners.

About Killing of Pri"OnerS'
Washington, Sept. 1s.-Colonel Dud-
ley of the Judge advocate generals oe-
partment reports to the war depart
ment that he is about to conclude 'ne
investigation into the killing OF the
Spanish prisoners on board the Har-
ward after the battle of July 3. Colonel
Dudley was fortunate enough to reach
Portsmouth before the City OF Rome
sailed for Spain with the Spanish pris-
oners, so that he was enabled to take
the testimony of number OF them, IN
Guiding Admiral Cervera and several
of his officers.
Even from the Spanish account 1t
does not appear that the American SEN
tinels were to blame for the unfortunate
affair. One of the prisoners persisted
in passing the rope boundary OF theif
confines, and when the American sehtl-
mel sought to drive him within BOUNDS
several Of the other prisoners swarrns'
over the rope, while the others became
50 highly excited and assumed 80
threatening an attitude that the small
guard, consisting of about ten United
States soldiers, felt obliged to fire upon
the offending prisoners.
Unfortunately no officers, either
American or Spanish, were present at
the time, which happened to be at
night else trouble might have been
avoided. The testimony Of the troops
on the Harvard, consisting OF the Thir-
ty-fourth Michigan and the Ninth Mas
sachusetts regiments, will be secured
although as the latter was on guard az
the time it will not be necessary, IN the
coloners opinion, to take the testimony
of the Michigan men.
AS the Massachusetts regiment has
heen furloughed great difficulty has
been experienced in finding any Of the
soldiers who witnessed the affair, and
Colonel Dudley is now engaged at Bos~
ton in that task.

The Democrats have claimed Dewey and Schley, and the Republicans come forward and refute the claim, and the question is open for argument. Dewey's son says that he has often heard hls father say that he never voted in his life, his belief being that an army or navy officer should not dabble in poli- tics, but serve his country, no matter who was in power and that he did not know that his father had any politics at all.
 Schley at recent banquet in Wash ington said his duty was to be for "the administration whichever party was in power.
 The Litchfield Enquirer in backing up it's nomination" of Dewey and Lee for the Democratic ticket in 1900 says; ''It's dollars to doughnuts that Dewey is better Democrat than Grant was a Republican when the latter party nomi- mated the great general for the presi- dency in 1868."
 Ar Mckinley or Roosevelt are the logical candidates of the Republicans ID 1900, if the Democrats put forward Dewey, Lee or Schley the voters would have choice of men not equalled since the Garfield campaign.

What is the use of making better ar- ticle than your competitor if you can not get better price for 1t?
 Ans.-As there is no difference in the price the public will buy only thu bet ter. so that while our profits may be smaller on single sale they will be much greater iD the aggregate.
 How can you get the public to know your make is the best.
 If both articles are brought promi- nently before the public both are cer- tain to be tried and the public will very quickly pass judgement on them and use only the better one.
