Fighting Bob Evans Relieved OF His Boat
by Request.
Washington. Sept. l5,-Capt. Robley
ID. Evans called at the navy department
today and had a long talk with Secre-
tary Long. the immediate result of
which was the issue of an order reiev-
ing him OF the command of the battle
ship Iowa, which is now being repaired
at the New York navy yard. This was
done az Capt. Evans personal request.
He has served more than the period of
time required by regulations and prac'
tice for captain to command, and his
next sea service may he in flag rank.
He has been granted a leave of absence
and in the meantime the nature of his
next duty will be determined. 1t will
certainly be ashore, and he may be as
signed to membership on one of the
naval boards.
The next commander of the Iowa
will be Capt. Silas Terry, now in COM
nxad of the receiving ship Franklin
at the Norfolk navy yard. He will
take the ship around South America
and over TO Honolulu in company with
the Oregon, and some Golfers 1t is
said at the navy department today that
the sailing orders to the battleship
have not been issued, and that when
they are, they will take the ships only
as far as Honolulu. 1t is not denied
that they will ultimately proceed to join
Dewey's fleet at Manila if it should be
deemed expedient to reinforce him.
But as the journey around South Amer
lea will occupy nearly four months,
and many changes in the situation as
TO the Philippines may be expected TO
occur before the expiration of that peri
cd of time, it cannot be certainly fore
told whether or not the Oregon and
the Iowa will ever reach Manila.
When attention was called to the posi-
bility of the dispatch Of achievements
to Dewey being regarded rs a technical
violation OF th" truce now pending, it
was said at the navy department that
that matter would probably be- adjusted
long before the ships reach Honolulu
by the action Of the peace commission
at Paris Should this not be the case,
however, it would be easy to intercept
the ships at Honolulu by dispatch
boat which could make the run from
San Francisco ia "a week.

Testimony of Michigan Men May not be
Needle l.
Washington, September i5.-COl.
Dudley, of the judge-advocate generals
department, reports to the war depart
ment that he is about to conclude the
investigation into the killing of the
Spanish prisoners on board the United
States steamship Harvard, after the bat
tie Of July 3. Col. Dudley was for
tunate enough to reach Portsmouth be-
fore the City of Rome sailed for Spain
with the SIP tnlsn prisoners, so that he
was enabled to take the testimony of a
number Of them, including Admiral
Crrvera and several of his officers.
Even from the Spanish account it does
not appear that the American sentinels
were TO blame for the unfortunate al
fair. One of the prisoners persisted in
passing the rope boundary of their con-
fines, and when the American sentinel
sought to drive him within bounds, sew
eral of the other prisoners swarmed
over the rope, while the others became
so highly excited and assumed so threat
ening an attitude that the small guard
insisting of about ten United States
soldiers, felt obliged to fire upon the Of
Tending prisoners. Unfortunately, no
officers either American or Spanish
were present at the time, which hap
pened to be at night, else trouble might
have been avoided.
The testimony of the troops on the
Harvard, consisting of the thrty-fourth
Michigan and the ninth Massachusetts
regiments, will be secured. although as
the latter was on guard ut the time, it
will not be necessary in the colonel's
opinion to take the testimony of the
Michigan men. As the Massachusetts,
regiment has been furlouChed great
| difficulty has been experienced in find
ing any of the soldiers who witnessed
the affair, and Col. Dudley is now en-.
gagged at Boston at that task

We heard a man remark but a few
days since that the prosperity OF the
sheepmen Of Fremont county was not
benefiting our town to any extent,
the sheepmen being the only profters.
The assertion struck us as absurd, but
we took the trouble to call upon some
OF IL business firms and ask them to
what extent they had profited, or other
wise. by the prosperity OF sheepmen.
All of whom we asked the question, in
variably replied that they had been
greatly benefited, and in the case Of a

craft, and his reply was that his busi-
ness had increased an hundred fold
