WASHINGTON, July 2S.-Up to a
late hour the war department had re-
ceived no information from Gen. Miles
nor any part of his command in Porto
Rico. Throughout the day the officials
have been expecting mometarily to re-
ceive news of the landing of Gen. VIII
sons expedition. No uneasiness is felt.
however, because Gen. Miles has not
communicated with the government
since his arrival at Guanica, as it is
necessary In order to communicate
with Washington to send a vessel to
the nearest cable station.
The war department assumes Gen.
Miles is pursuing his advance across
the island Of Porto Rico towards San
Juan. They attach little credence to
the Spanish account of a battle at
Yacuca, resting confidence In the belief
that when the facts are known it will
be found that this was a victory of the
usual Spanish type, resulting in the
complete achievement of the object Cf
the American commanders.
Considerable reinforcements are now
arriving to support Miles, and before
the week is over the campaign there
will be in full swing.

BOARDS OF TRADE ENDORSE
That of st. Louis Will When it Knows
What 1t is EndOrsiuS.

st. Louis, March 2S-It is announced
this afternoon that the st. Louis mer-
chants exchange will not follow the lead
of the boards of trade of Boston and
Philadelphia in officially endorsing the
course of President Mckinley in the pres
ent crisis or officially assuring the execu-
tive that its members would stand by
him whatever his ultimate action might
be.
President Christopher Sharp refuses to
put either of these questions to a vote,
though he has been requested TO do so.
Today he received a communication from
the president Of the Philadelphia board of
trade stating that that board had pledged
itself TO stand by the president of the
United States and asking him TO obtain a
similar pledge from the local exchange.
Preceding this message came one from
the executive of the Boston board OF trade
asking for an Endorsement OF President
McKinley's policy.
Mr.. Sharp replied to both that the ST
Louis merchants exchange would defer
action.
THE exchange does not refuse to in
dorse the president" said President
Sharp. ~ do not believe in indorsing a
policy before I know what that policy is
AS to pledging ourselves to stand by the
decision of the president, that would be
useless. Every American will do that,

policy. That is a matter congress should

ANONYMOUS Letter to Lee.

Henry Drain, a clerk in the United
States consulate, Havana, was examined
as to the receipt Of an anonymous letter
received by the consul general in regard
10 the explosion of the Maine. Witness
produced the letter, the date of which was
February Is of the present year. There
was no signature, it being signed An
Admirer." Drain said it seemed to be
the document of a fairly well educated
man. 1t was writted in Spanish. The
translation was produced and was handed
70 the iudge-advocate and read by him.
The letter was referred to in the record
as being marked Fl" but was not APP
pended.
In response to the question as TO whether
anything had been done to ascertain the
truth of the statements contained in the
BETTER. the witness said that he had asked
General Lee to look into the matter and
he did not appear to know what to DO
stating he had no secret service money.
A man by the name Of Pope Taco was
mentioned in the letter. Witnes said he
had tried to discover the whereabouts or
the man and the one to whom he spoke
said the man was a mistake, that the
man mentioned had died a few days be-
fore the explosion of the Maine and that
the letter referred to Pope Barquin, that
he also had died suddenly about two or
three days after the explosion OF the
Maine. The witness declared that his m
fcrmant was Mr.. Charles Carbonneu, an
American citizen.

WAINWRIGHT ON DISCIPLINE
He Says This on the Maine Was all
1t Ought TO Have Been.

Lieutenant Commander Richard Vain
wright testified that the regulations in re-
gard to paints and inf1ammables and all
other precautions were strictly carried out
on board ship. Every possible care was
taken to avoid accident All visitors were
scrutinized before being allowed to come
on board the ship Nobody was allowed
unacccmpanied. Special lookouts were
required at night. No unauthorized boats
were allowed TO approach the ship. There
was fine discipline, an obedient crew, and
quiet men.
He was IN the captains office at the
time Of the explosion; felt very heavy
shock and heard noise of falling objects
on deck He thought the ship was being
fired upon. He was told by the captain
to see that the boats were lowered. He
saw a few men coming, mostly officers.
He saw no reason to food the magazines,
because the water was coming up. There
was fire forward. Boats began to crowd
around the wreck and he induced them to
take the wounded to different vessels. A
list was taken of the saved and wounded.
There was excellent discipline after the
explosion, Lieutenant Wainwright said,
orders being followed with the prompt
ness of drill. The only order not obeyed
was the order to leave the ship.
Wainwright first examined the wreck al
daylight the following morning. He took
q gig with Lieutenant Hood and a few
men and attempted TO board the wreck.
He was warned off by an armed boats
crew of Spaniards and then pulled around
the wreck. There were still some burn
ing fragments.

er Wainwright said:

Passed Assistant Engineer Bowers, SEN
Tor assistant engineer to the chief, was
examined particularly as to the precau-
lions taken on board the Maine against
spontaneous combustion. He said the or
der had been to inspect the bunkers every
day and log them. In the case OF the
bunkers that had an escape door, they
had always opened those doors. He was
en- duty on the day before the explosion.
The coal in bunker A, he said, had beg
stored either in Norfolk or Newport News
There were about forty tons and 1t was
soft coal The bunkers Immediately aft
were empty. The door leading from the
bunker to the I0-inch loading room was
kept closed The after boilers, he said,
were practically banked and were in good
condition, and he did not consider that
there was any danger Of their having TOO
much pressure in for safety on the even
ing of the explosion. Mr.. Bowers said
there had never been a fire from sponta-
neous combustion in the bunkers. They
had once thought they had such a fire, but
it was from leaky exhaust pipe from the
ice machine.
