NOTHING FROM SAMPSON.
So Secretary Long Said Late Las
Night.

WASHINGTON, July 11-Secretary
Long had received no dispatches from
Admiral Sampson up to 8 o'clock to-
night. The secretary was not antici-
pating any important information from
the fleet
A cable message was received at
the navy department. from Commodore
Schley, but Secretary Long said it con-
teined nothing of public Importance
and would not be given out.
A very large package was brought to
the navy department today by Ensign
Palmer, from the st. Louis. 1t was
supposed that the packet contained the
report of Admiral Sampson, of the re-
cert naval engagement off Santiago,
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1898-07-12

grief among the officers Of the depart
ment, who respected him for his SOL
dierly qualities, as manifested in his
hard service in the West.
The cable communication between
Washington and Gen. Skaters head
quarters has now been gotten into ex-
cellent condition, so that it has been
possible to receive at the department
a message within twenty minutes af-
ter it has been dispatched by Gen.
Shafter. Col. Allen, who is in charge
at Gen. Skaters end Of the line, has
reported to the department that he is
now engaged in laying a cable from
Guantanamo to Playa del Este, which
will still further reduce the time re-
Quired for the exchange of commune
cations.
PROTECTION FROM FIRE
The appearance at the navy depart
ment this morning at an early hour
of Ensign Palmer, one of the officers
Of the ST. Louis, which arrived at
Portsmouth yesterday, led to the be-
lief that he had brought reports of
the American naval commander upon
the battle which resulted in the de-
struction Of Cervera's squadron. It
turned out, however, that he had left
Siboney before the reports on that en-
gagement had been prepared.
Ex-Secretary Herbert had quite a
conference with Secretary Long this
afternoon upon the subject of fireproof
wood for the naval construction. He
brought with him a formidable array
Of facts gathered from the newspaper
reports of the naval battle to show
that fire was the element that worked
the greatest destruction among the
vessels Of the Spanish squadron, and
that wherever American vessels had
been in danger from any torpedo boat
they had escaped such fires because
all of their woodwork was fireproof.
So impressed was Secretary Long with
the report that he has concluded to
reconvene special board, which was
appointed some time ago to deal with
this matter and which had recon-
mended that the use of the prepared
wood be curtailed in some measure in
American warship building.
Naval officers say that q serious ir-

in Canada, and that they desired that
with as little delay or inconvenience dis
possible they would leave the country.
Mr.. st. Pierre replied that nothing
could be done so long as the money be-
longing to the Spaniards was held un-
der the capias secured by Detective
released he would see what could be
done. He returned to Montreal and
consulted with his clients
The capias was not quasfled until
June 30, and on that very day Sir Will
fred Laurier telegraphed urging that
the departure should take place upon
Saturday. AT the same time he wrote
to Mr.. st. Pierre asking him to COM
n3unicate with his clients, saying Sec
retary of State Day had furnished Sir
Julian Pauncefote with Photographic
copy of the stolen letter. He continued:
''The letter Of Lieut.. Carranza un-
equivocally says that he had been left
in Canada to send and receive tele-
grams and look after the spy system
he was establishing.
VIOLATION OF LAW.
1.-THE action of Lieut. CarranZa is q
violation Of the laws of the land, and
az infringement of the postal system
Mr.. ST. Pierre communicated the pre-
mier's letter to Senor du Bose, and re-
ceived a reply on July that they
would sail on the next steamer Of the
Dominion line. In this letter ne wrote:
II must, however, protest against the
second paragraph of Sir Wilfred's let
ter, in which he states that the secre-
tary of state of the United States of
America had given a copy to Sir Ju-
liam Pauncefote, her majesty's ambas-
sador at Washington, of the original
letter addressed by Senor CarranZa
from Montreal on May 26 last TO the
Spanish minister of marine, and aced
in his hands photograph copy OF the
same, which Sir Julian has transmit
ted to the Canadian government. This
is completely false. Senor Carranza
has given me his word of honor that
the only letter stolen thus far from
him is private letter addressed to
Gomez Inez, a relative of his, EMPLOYED
in the navy department at Madrid
The statement of Mr.. Carranza is cor
roborated by the alleged translation Of
the letter, which have seen published
in the newspapers.
Some delay occurred in the arrival
of this letter at Ottawa, and the gov
ernment at once became uneasy. Tele-
grams passed to and from Sir Wilfred
Laurier inquiring anxiously: Have
party left?" The party had not left.
Senior du Bosco, on July 2, expressed
his intention to leave by the next
steamer of the Dominion line, leaving
July 8. He was unable to do So. be-
cause he could not obtain passage on
her, and Mr. Torrance wrote to the
government to the effect that there
was not room vacant,
AS the government was so insistent

The notably fast run made by the

naval officials. She left Charleston
Saturday morning, at 2 o'clock, making
the run in a trifie less than two days
and half. She had on board the Sixth

Gen. Garretson's brigade.
The Columbia, which left Charleston
practically simultaneously with the
Yale, carried one battalion of the Sixth

NO news OF f1Sht1nS Hece1ved in

WASHINGTON, July 11.-Up to mid
night no news from either the army
or navy from Santiago had reached
the departments, so far as the public
was informed. Though the possibility
of interrupted cable communication
was suggested as an explanation for
the lack of advices, it was announced
at midnight that nothing had been fl
ed at Playa del Este for the officials
here. Both Secretaries Long and AL
ger were at the White house during
the evening, but returned to their res
licences early and gave no outward
sign of anxiety or expectation OF start
ling news. The arrival of Gen. Miles
and the conferences between him and
the commanding officers of the army
and navy is taken by some to indicate
that if fighting occurred today it was
not of a serious character, for with
heavy engagement in progress it was
hardly possible that Admiral Sampson
or Gen. Shafter would find time for
conferences. 1t is thought that pes
sibly the arrival of Gen. Miles caused
suspension of active operations in
order that the entire situation might
be discussed. But this view of the
situation is speculation, and without

ed to go to Santiago. The wag IN
transportation to be sent will be pro-

-tion of land transportation for the
operations of the army in Santiago is
regarded as Of the foremost Importance
as the dispatches from the front indi-
cate that Gen. Shafter has had con-
siderable difficulty In keeping the van
OF his army supplied with any great
amount of rations and other neces-
saries. 1t is believed that the wagons
