~ HE sensational contents Of one OF
last nights war bulletins was
to the effect that an American
auxiliary cruiser. attempting to enter
Santiago harbor. was blown up and de-
etroyed by the S~paniards. Later came
the word that one officer. one engineer
n six sailors belonging to the cruiser
were captured. Still later came the
Information hat the destroyed cruiser
was said to be the Merrimac."
The trouble with this piece OF news
Is that there is no auxiliary cruiser
called the Merrimac in the American
navy. There is a collier bearing that
name. and 1t is the only boat in our
navy called the Merrimac. II the name
is correctly quoted, We are left to infer
that the boat was run into the entrance
of the hsrbor by "a own men and ex-
ploded by them at the point where II
is proposed to sink several craft. for
the purpose of making Cervera's exit
impossible.
The number of people reported as cap
tured by the Spaniards would ft pretty
well to the proportions of the crew
which the collier would naturally be
expected TO carry on such a mission.

Santiago. where the Spaniards control

naval establishment includes nine COL
liers. The Merrimac was a foreign

CARTER CoURT-MARTIAL.
The Defense Begins Presentation Oh It's
Case.

Savannah Ga. aMrch 21.-The de-
Tense in the Carter Court Martial began
the presentation of its case today AT
the outset, Mr.. \. j. Rose. one Oh cap
tain Carriers attorneys, asked permIs-
sion of the court to make sulhmarlZeu
statement of what the defense expect
ed to prove. He occupied the attention
of the court for more IMAM an nour,
outlining the defense i'll full.
He took up each charge that had been
made. and stated what the defense
would show. 1t would be shown, he said,
that the office methods, the methods of
advertising, furnishing specifications and
information, pursued by Captain Carter
we're not in violation of law. and were
in accordance with the office practice
found when he came here. 1t would be
shown that all materials used were in
accordance with specifications. That
the alleged intimacy with Captain
Greene was not denied, but it was as
stated there were reasons why Captain
Carter had right to be intimate with
Captain Greene. which would he shown.
The letters between them. he said, were
all personal, and there was nothing
wrong in them. 1t wonld be further
shown that Captain Carter never had
anything TO do with the Empire Con-
struction Company, the stock book of
which was found among HIS private
papers. 1t would be shown that if the
contract, as interpreted by Capt. Gill
lette, had been followed. it would have
cost the government 81 100000 more on
the Savannah river work.
1t would be further shown, he said,
that the money Capt. Carter handled was
the money of his father-n-law. Mr..
Westcott. of New York, who is a
wealthy man. If Captain Carter spent
money lavishly as claimed, it was no
body's business. so long as he did not
get it from the government or otherwise
dishonesty.
1t would be further shown, he said.
that Captain Carter knew nothing about
the signature Of other names by NJ. A.
Connolly and others. so they could have
nothing to do with the case. The charges
of leaving his post without permission.
and others of a minor nature. would be
mfuted and explained to the fun salts
faction of the court.
B. +. Einney. an expert chemist, was
the FIRST witness called. He was put
up TO disprove the statements of the
prosecution with reference to specific
gravity. The prosecution interpreted as
weight Of given substance. and not in
its chemical sense.
Mr. George y. Wisner. civil engineer
OF ;53 years experience. and Il member of
the Deep Waterways Commission, APP
pointed by the President, was the next
witness He testified on many technical
engineering points, sustaining Captain
Carriers work and office practice, and
showing that there had been by actual
measurement. only 240 yards of brush
washed OH the beach at Hilton Head
from the breakwater. whereas witness
Hale testified there were 10000. The
