BROUGHT NO NEWS.
Stenourapher Hulse Has Not Been Interviewed
by Secretary long.

Washington, March 9.-inasmuch as
the return to Washington OF Mr.. Huse
who acted as one of the stenographcrs
of the court of inquiry at Key West, has
been made the basis of the assumption
that he brought to the secretary Of the
navy II report from the court and also
thai he gave the secretary what pur-
ported to be the conclusions of the court
as to the cause of the Maine disaster. it
may be stated by authority of the secre
tarv that he has not seen or commune
Gated with Mr.. Ilulse since the lattcr's
return. nor does he expect to do so. So
far as can be gathered Mr.. Iiulse left
the court Of inquiry because il had no
longer need for his service. There was
more than one stcnographer employed by
the court when it was deemed essential
ia make haste in taking the testimony
of the survivors of the wreck in the carly
stages When that had been done, it was
possible to proceed before the court with
less etcnographic assistance, and Mr..
Itulsc was allowed to return to Washing
ton.
