4 Biblical Parallel.
Editor of The Evening Star:

10 the Fultor OF Inc Evening star:
In the light of the luminous evidence that
transpires through the testimony adduced
before the United States court of inquiry
touching the Spanish protestations Of
friendly solctude for the luckless victims
Of their hellish treachery, evidenced, as
they claim, by the Alphonso KITS boats
rescuing them from a watery grave upon
their descent from the skyward blast of the
terrible one that wrecked our noble battle
ship Maine. We are reminded forcibly of
that biblical episode recorded in the ninth
and tenth verses, twentieth chapter of III
Samuel viz: And Joab said to Amasa,
Art thou in health, my BROTHER And Joab
took Amasa by the beard with the right
hand to kiss him But Amasa took no heed
to the sword that was In JCab's hand; so
he smote Herewith in the fifth rib a
and he died. There is manifest perallel-
ism between this ancient instance of punica
fides and this modern one. The lowering of
those Spanish beats was merely a diaph
anous ruse-a fimsy blind that the Span
ish hell hounds had concocted by precon-
cert. Those boats We're simply accessories

1t is explained that while the Secretary
Of the Treasury was directed to pay to the

Kong correspondent cables that ut is now
known here that Admiral Dewey request
ed the correspondents at Manila not TO
give the full story of the Irene incident
for fear of arousing feeling in America
which might lead to complications with
Germany.
when the full details become known It
viii be seen that the incident was more
serious than it first appeared to be. AS
soon as the American ship came on the
scene Of action in subg bay the Irene
slipped her cable, leaving her anchor in
the bay. American Consul Wildman re-
fuses to say more than this, taking the
same line of policy as Admiral Dewey.
ut is believed by those who know Ad-
miral Dewey that on the arrival of the
monitors Monterey and Monadnock he
will insist upon his harbor regulations be-
Ing carried out to the letter.
''The opinion among the foreigners at
Manila Is that the Americans will never
forgive the Germans for their meddlesome
attitude in the Philippines. II will not
only hurt German trade with America,
but will also effectually destroy all OF
Germany's chances Of having any say or
influence in the disposal Of the Philippines
