snecial pisnatch to The Call.

Special Dispatch to The Call.
 CARSON, Jan. 19.-Chris Dangberg was summoned by the Douglas Grand Jury to-day and asked to explain. why he had, in the presence of three witnesses, in a saloon in Gardnerville, stated that he was one of the mob and knew the rest. He denied it, and said that when drunk he might have indorsed the lynchers, but was not one of them. He denied threat ening Judge Mack and the Governor.
 Dick Roberts of Carson testified that a Dane named Clock, from Gardnerville, had admitted being one of the mob and had kicked Uber as he was being dragged. The two men were brought face to face. Clock denied having admit ted anything, but said that Roberts had tried to get a statement out of him and admitted he was there himself.
 Roberts admitted having said this to get the other to talk. and he did so and stated that he had kicked Uber, while Pete Anderson had struck him with the butt end of his gun
 There was a lively scene and nearly a fight between the two in the Grand Jury room.
 Two witnesses in Carson-George Jer- sen and Bill Mack-were summoned to. day. Foreman Cook announces that all the testimony will be in tomorrow. after which the jury will go to work on its re- port.

NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-The Herald s Washington correspondent telegraphs: In anticipation of an emergency Sec retary Long has taken measures to support any stand the Chief Magis- trate may take. Orders to the gun boat Nashville, assigning her to duty on the European station, were to-day revoked; the gunboat Helena, which left New York some weeks ago for the Asiatic station via the Mediterranean and Suez Canal, has been caught by cable at Funchal and directed to at tach herself to the European squad ron; the cruiser Cincinnati, now at Buenos Ayres, and the gunboat Cas- tine at Montevideo, have been instruct ed to proceed to the northern part of Brazil
 Furthermore, understand that Com mOdore George Dewey commanding the Asiatic squadron, has been com munlcated with, and has been inform cd that 1t may be necessary for his ships to return to the United States and that if they come they will be re- qulred to come to the Atlantic by the quickest route, and to have his ve-- sels in readiness to receive any orders the department may send.
 Rear Admiral Miller, who commands the Pacific station, and who is now at Honolulu, has been advised of the sit nation. The battleship Maine was in structed to-day to join the fleet and proceed with it to Tortugas. The De- trolt or Montgomery will be retained at Key West on the filibustering patrol, ana IL IS understood torpedo boats will also remain there. While if cannot be positively stated, there is reason to believe that the object in keeping tor pedo boats at Key West is to have prompt forwarding to Rear Admiral Slcard at Tortugas of all dispatches sent by Consul General Lee.

The Senator Popular With His Party Members
 at Washington.
Offered the Craftsmanship of the Democratic Congressional
 Committee.
Undecided as to Whether He Will Accept and Strive to Be Re-
 turned to Congress.
Special Dispatch to The Call.
Call Office, Riggs House,

Call Of1ce, RlggS House,
 Washington, Jan. 19.
 Honors come to Senator White of California without his bidding. He was chosen chairman of the National Dem ocratic Convention at Chicago without any effort on his part or on the part of his friends. The majority of the Democratic Congressional Committee now favors him for chairman of that committee, and has asked him to ac- cept. It is understood that the Sena- tor has the offer under consideration. He would be glad to accept this hon. orable position but for the fact that he is as yet undecided as to whether he would be candidate for reelection to the Senate. He was in some doubt about his acceptance tonight. but will make known his decision tomorrow.
 George P. Keenan, alleged to be a Californian, and who has been acting as organizer or hustler" for the League of Silver Clubs. and who is also secretary of the National Commit tee of the so-called "Silver party" has evidently been disappointed in his am bition to become secretary of the Con- gressional Committee, for when he as- certained tonight that White was like ly to be selected chairman of the com mittee, he circulated around the hotel Hobbies trying to injure the Senator by declaring that he was not a good Democrat" He repeated the lies of the San Francisco Bulletin to the effect that White was supported by The Call for reelection to the Senate and sought to discredit his Democracy.
 But Keenan is an insignificant figure in Washington, for 1t is well under stood here that he is a political "faker," whose expenses are borne by MT. Lane of California, the wealthy miner and silver advocate. Keenan is the person who was roasted the other day in the Washington papers by Law renee Gardner and Senator Faulkner

AIIotting the Credit.

A board Of naval officers, after a careful collection and comparison of all the data, has decided who were entitled to the respective shares of credit for the victory over Cervera's fleet of Santiago and the measure Of the work performed by each of the Amerloaa Warships.
 The board was made up O t6e navigation officers ot the several vessels participating in the action add presided over by Commander Wainwright of the famous httle Glouster It's conclusions were reached after the most searching and careful investigation of all tue facts. The fadt5gs Of the board on the evidence presented are that most of the effective fighting and the principal part of the destruc- tion wrought against the Spanish battleships are to be credited to the Oregon, the Iowa and Texas; that the battle was fought accord ing to plans laid dowa by Admiral Sampson; that Admiral Schley dld an unimportant amount, of signal ing during the battle; that the New York, Sampson's flagship, was nine miles away from the Christobal Colon when that vessel struck her flag; that the Oregon whipped athe Colon and that the Brooklyn, while she put up pIucky running fight, was farther away from the Spanish ships than any of the yes sels engaged, and that the nearest any of the American battleships or cruisers were to the ships of the enemy during the hottest part of the battle was something over a mile.
 This report, made 0y the men best competent to do the work, vi! have the effect to set at rest the discussions among the sfuendss of tle two highest naval officers con aeoted with the great victory Ii will show that Admiral schleY stat ed the situation correctly when he wrote to friend soon after Cerve- fas deieat Tue glory ot the aehlevema Qel91gs to every officer and sailor wao took part m the 3ssttle 2l, I1dls eeepQ1.Ic.

designed for restocking cattle farms, to working of oxen and milch COWS.
 A pamphlet addressed 10 the United States evacuation commission has been printed and widely circulated, asking tho American authorities to prevent the return here, where they would be con- stant menace to order and safety, of the 200 Manigos, who have been released from African prisons by the Spanish government since the protocol was signed. The Manigos are professional murderers, burglars, thieves and crimi- nals of the lowest and most deprayed type. They form clubs binding the members to commit murders at fixed hours for the mere sake of shedding blood.
 Senor Porrua, former civil governor of Havana, dealt strongly with these ruffians, practically breaking up their clubs here, and sending more than 700. to Spain's penal settlements in Africa sThese are the criminals that Spain has released to return to Havana and renew their criminal vacations as fresh ob- stacle to the peaceful and quiet recon struction of the island by the Ameri- cans. The Manigo clubs have branches in every town and village in Cuba, form ing very powerful interproteetiYe crimi- nal class.
 All the editorials in the local press of late are exhorting the Cubans to lay down their arms and return to the cultl- vation of their lands, pointing out that the future prosperity lies in Cuban CO., operation with and observanoes of Amer ican institutions and laws, and the folly of talk about absolute independence and uprisings have been religiously sup pressed by the official eensors.
 Gouees at the head of the editorial columns of La Lneha announcing tho censoriaI death of an article are matters of daily occurrence, though the articles themselves give good advice to the Gu bans and are absolutely harmless.
 The customs receipts for the month Of at the ports of Sagua, Carde- mas, Gienfuegos, Matanzas, Nueyitas, and Havana amounted to $1,- 320, ,8f0, which was 8655, 220 in excess of the receipts of September, 1897
