EXPEDI-

San Francisco, May s5. The start was
male for Manila late this afternoon and
the first American army to sail for a
foreign shore is now on the broad Pacific.
At four o'clock this afternoon, Brig.
General Anderson, signalled from the
Australia directing the City of Peking
and the City of Sydney to get underway.
The signal was seen from the shore and
the waiting crowds commenced to cheer
wildly.
No time was lost on board the trans
ports. The crews worked with a will and
in short time the anchors were up and
the vessels were under way. Then the
$500 soldiers who had been impatiently
awaiting the signal to start, climbed to
the rigging and swarmed all over the big
ships shouting and cheering like mad.
The bay was alive with email craft OF
every description and huge ferry boats
were pressed into service to accommodate
the eager crowds and carry them to the
head Of the Golden Gate, that q last fare
well might be said. The big transports
steamed slowly along the water front and
the crowd on shore raced along to keep
them in sight. The noise made by
patriotic citizens on sea and shore was
something terrific. Every steam whistle

When my little boy was two years OF age
dry spots commenced to appear on dlnerent

to his hands. and was obliged to keep his
first three fingers done up all the time, as it
was a raw sore, beginning to extend down to-

different physicians, each certain length of
time, to see benefit of their medicines. I
think now, after using CUTICURA, that some
of the salves that used did more injury than
good. A gentleman (who sat next to me in

The Alger Investigation.


AS an Illustration of the sort of ques-
tions asked by the Investigation Com
mission, and of the animus of the COM
mttee as betrayed by the form OF the
questions, the New York Post quotes the
following interrogation, put by DR.. Con-
nor, of Cincinnati, the medical member
OF the commission appointed after the
refusal of DR.. Keene, OF Philadelphia, to
serve: Gould all the medical men, and
all the medicines in the world. in your
opinion, have prevented the outbreak OF
sickness at Santiago?" The answer (the
question was put to General Wheeler) was
naturally mo" Yet the Post suggests
for the consideration OF DR.. Connor the
fact that, while there was camp of 800
marines on shore at Guantanamo, the
medical officers OF the navy were able to
keep out the fever absolutely.
Certainly there has been aothing in the
whole history of the war more striking
than the contrast afforded by the differ
ence in the experience of the army and
the navy From the latter. although sub
jected to extraordinary trials under
tropical sun, no complaints OF ill-trcat-
ment, of starvation, of inadequacy OF sup
plies, or OF surgical attendance have come
1t is true that the casualties in the navy
were few, but still the men had to be fed
and cared for. Both sailors on board,
and the marines on snOre, seem 20 nave
escaped the ills from which the land
forces, whether at Chickamauga. at Tam
pa, or In Cuba, or at Montauk Point, are
said to have suffered. Can IL be that the
difference Is caused by the fact that there
was less politics In the navy--and no
Alger at the head of the Navy Depart
ment? This, substantially. is what the
War Investigating Commission ought to
find out, but what. apparently, Il Is not
in the way OF finding out, or even sus-

WOULD RESIGN FIRST.
That's What the Mayor of Norfolk
Said.

Said.
NORFOLK, VA, October 11.-(Special.)
James Whitehurst, OF Norfolk, has sworn
out warrant before Justice Warren Jor-
dan, charging his sister, Mrs. Sarah VIII
kins, of Portsmouth. with destroying the
Will of Rebecca Whitehurst, with the in
tent TO prevent it's probate. The warrant
was given 10 a negro constable, named
Cuffee, to serve on Mrs. wilkins. 1t was
necessary for him first to have the paper
countersigned by the Mayor. The Con-
stable stated that IL was his intention to
arrest the lady and carry her before a
justice, who, 1t was said, is also colorcd,
and who holds court at Indian Creek,
twenty-five miles from the city, and
upon learning these facts the Mayor re-
fused TO endorse tho warrant. His Honor
stated that In view Of all the circum-
stances he would sooner resign his Office
than attach his signature to the warrant.
1t was stated in open court by Lawyer
William Parker, who appeared in the in
terest of the accused, that Whitehurst,
who brings the charge, is a weak man,
and that he has been melted to his pres
ent course by a third party. Between
Mrs., wilkins and this person behind tho
scenes there was, 1t was stated, suit
some time ago, which resulted in the
lady's favor, and IL is believed that this
has inspired the individual with desire
for revenge.

! a cablegram from him advising haste
| forced Skaters expedition to start be-
| fore Il was ready. The Herald's special
| says. further, that Sampson knows that
a Mot has been formed to make him bear
| n large part OF the burden Of the respon-
sIbiiity for the suffering Of the soldiers
| az Santiago and on the return trip to the
United states.
The alleged telegram referred TO IS the
telegram mentioned In General Wheeler s
testimony before the War Department
Investigating Committee. The substance
OF It, as given by General Wheeler. was
that Sampson declared that Santiago
could be taken with 10000 men, and the
former assigned this declaration as one
of the reasons why the expedition was
DISPATCHED in such haste and In such
condition OF unpreparedness
Although any suspicion that General
Wheeler alluded to this telegram for the
purpose Of injuring Sampson was not to
be entertained, II was evident. as we
pointed out at the time, that the alusion
was calculated to give the Admiral trou-
bic. The friends of Schley took hold of
IL and proceeded to make all the capital
out Of 1t they could.
AS to the Sampson-Schley question. In
so far as II involvec the treatment Of the
latter by the former in the matter OF the
destruction of Cervera's fleet, we are on
the side OF Schley. The ungenerous
course Of Sampson TO his brother officer
reflected no credit upon him. 1t reflected
no credit upon the American navy. But
with any attempt to use the telegram or
alleged telegram to injure Sampson. we
have no sympathy. Nor do We believe
that in the long run 1t can be made to
subserve that purpose and shield the War
Department. Sampson is a sailor and not
a soldier. and If he sent the telegram 1t
was the business of the War Department
TO weigh carefully that fact before acting
upon his suggestion. If plot there is to
make Sampson a scapegoat for the War
Department, ii is not only a disgraceful |
one, but so thin that the American peo- |
pie will not be long seeing through 1t.
