In a controversy between the Boston

present war by Irishmen and Jews, the
American Hebrew claims that Dewey
is Jew. There have been some great
dislike to take Dewey from the list, but
the fact remains that Dewey's mother
was Perrin and his grandmother a
Talcott and he comes from typical Yer
mont stock traceable back several hun

wINDwARD ISLAND FREIGHT.
Conc Up in Price and American Yes
sells Have Ceased to Garry.

New York, June Blown in Broad
cughfares there is much interest in tie
enormous increase in the demand for
food stuffs from the Windward islands.
AS consequence prices have gone
a-kiting and there is a suspicion that
more than the Windward island folk
are being supplied by those ordering
from New York. Those engaged in
the trade between New York and st.
Thomas, st. Croix, st. Kits and even
as far east as Barbados are happy 10
see their order files filed to the tops,
but they would be much happier if
American shipping masters would take
heart and run the risk of being snap
ped up by Spanish privalsers. But
the ship owners do not care to take
such chances. They prefer having all
such trade to the foreign vessels.
TIE Quebec line, flying the British
flag, of which A. F.. Outerbridec & Co.
are the agents, has practical monop-
oily Of these shipments. The line now
has six vessels plying between New
York and the ports mentioned. having
recently chartered the steamer Sylvia
Of the Red Cross line. The other yes
sells are the freighters Fontabelle, Carl
bee, Pretoria, Trinidad and Madiana
These are kept going as fast as they
can be stocked and unloaded, AMI still
the cry is for more vessels. Mr.. Out
erbridge of the firm said yesterday:
The great increase in trade is due
| to two possible reasons-thc fear o,
| residents of the islands that the wal
may soon put their supplies down te
a starvation basis and the decrease ir
the number of vessels for carrying

A member of firm which ships :
great deal of freight to the Windwart
islands said yesterday:
THE demand for pork, flour, beans
corn meal, peas, hay, oil meal and al
such food stuffs from the Windwart
islands has increased to a phenomena

lcordingly, and have made an addition

An Official Account of the Affair a
Santiago.

Washington, June 3.-The navy de-
partment has received an official re-
port from Commodore Schley regard
ing his recent attack on the forts at
the entrance of Santiago harbor. Com
modore Schley said his attack was
made for the purpose OF developing
the enemy's position, to locate batter

ly successful and he accomplished
what he set out to do.
None of his vessels were touched by
the enemy's volleys and there were nc
casualties or mishaps on his vessels
He says in addition that he has nc
reasonable doubt that Cervera's feet

READ IN THE CABINET.

Washington, June 8. Commodore
Schley's official report of the Santiago
fight was read at the cabinet meeting.
He says there is no reasonable doubt
that Cervera's fleet is inside the har-
Dor, that his firing was to develop the
batteries, and was in that respect en-
tirely satisfactory. None of his YES
sells were hit and no casualties on
the outside.

IL May Lead to Serious Trouble In this
KIondike Region.
Seattle, WASH, March Alive steam
ers arrived from Alaska yesterday
the Ethiopia, Huepeme, Del Norte, Pro-
lection and Queen. The Queen brought
the latest news having left Skaguay
last Sunday. The most important news
brought down was a confirmation of
previous reports that Canadian Of
fetal has raised the British flag on
what is regarded as American soil, and
trouble at Skaguay with 'longshore-
men, who objected to Indians unload
ing freight from steamers. The pres
ence of United States troops alone
prevented serious trouble. A COM
promise was made with the white men
to perform the work for so cents per
hour.
1t is feared serious trouble will grow
out of the Canadians attempt to col
lect duty on the summit of the White
Pass and the Chilkoot Pass and the
Americans will resist the payment on
what they consider American ground.
Another complication will result from
the various tramways which are being
constructed to carry freight over the
passes. The officials of these tram
ways are reported to have declared
that any interruption of the construc-
ton work or any attempt to exercise
any rights to ownership will be re-
sisted. 1t is thought at Dyea and
Skaguay that the movements of the
American authorities will be to claim
sovereignty over those two places.
Last summer the boundary line was at
Lake Bennett, then at Linderman, and
now at the summit of the mountains.

Washington, March 4.-The Loud bill
to correct alleged abuses of the second
class mail matter privilege, which last
year passed the house by majority of
144 to 10i, was buried under an over
whelming majority by the house yes
terday.a The vote was not takSn di-
rectly upon the bill, but on motion to
lay it on the table. By vote of 1872 to
l19 the motion was carried. Forty-seven
Republicans Joined with the Democrats
suit and 10 Democrats voted with the
majority of the Republicans The re-
fusal of Mr., Loud to permit a vote on
an amendment at the last minute was
responsible in a measure for the result,
but the strength of the measure UNI
doubtcdly waned throughout the three
days debate.
During almost the entire session yes
terday the senate had under considera-
tion the Alaskan homestead and rail-
way right of way bill. One of the fea-
lures of the discussion wos speech

except that satisfactory provision
should be made for those dependent uD-

"Picquart is liar" Pcquart, leaping
to his feet, cried to the jury: Il will
tell you why he brings these charges
against me without proofs and de-
