known in history as the battle of La
inc


That it did not end in the complete
slaughter of the Americans was not
due to any miscarriage in the plans
of the Spaniards, for as perfect an am
buscade as was ever formed in the
brain Of an Apache Was formed, and
Col. Wood and his men walked square
into 1t. For an hour and half they
held their ground under a perfect storm
of bullets from the front and sides,
and then Col. Wood at the right and
Lieut. Col Roosevelt at the left led a
charge which turned the tide of battle
and sent the enemy flying over the
hills towards Santiago.
1t is now definitely known that six
teen men on the American side were
killed, while sixty were wounded or are
missing 1t is impossible to calculate
the Spanish losses. though 1t is known
that they were much larger than the
Americans as regards actual loss OF
life. AT present thirty-seven bodies
have been recovered and buried, while
others are undoubtedly lying in the
thick underbrush on the side Of the
gully, or the slope Of the hill where
the main body of the enemy was To-
Gated. The injured were all removed.
A complete list of the killed, wounded
and missing on the American side, re-
vised to o'clock Saturday, Is as fol-

MCKINLEY and his coharts have
preached so much about the 50-cent
dollar that many people profess to
believe there is such a thing. The
people of Cuba believe it, evidently,
because they have refused to take
our silver dollars at par and only
consider them worth 80 cents. The
government is now laboring under
the difficult task of making the Gu
bans believe that our dollars are
worth dollar. Whether they will
make it stick or not remains to be
seen.

A PECULIAR feature in the free
coidage question has arisen in Ore
gon. Some months ago the Port
land Oregomiam offered "a reward of
$4,000 to any person who could
prove that cheaper dollar can be
substituted for one of greater value
i'm the payment of debts and wages
without reducing the value of
debts and wages in the same pro-
portion that the value of the dol
lar is reduced. Sidney Dell, free
coinage advocate, answered the
question in very clear manner,
and claims the reward. The Ore
goraian refused to pay, and Mr..
Dell has brought suit to recover the
$4,000, and has secured able coun-
sci to prosecute the case. The au-
thorities are uniform and unbroken
that public reward which has
been complied with is contract
emitting to recovery. OF course,
should Mr.. Dell win his suit, it
will not decide the silver question,
but should the decision be in his
favor it will go long way towards
substantiating the arguments Of all
free coinage advocates. The result
of the trial will be eagerly looked
for.

SHOULD the people of the State of
Nevada this Fall defeat VIM. M.
Stewart for reelection to the U. ).
Senate, the death knell of the Sill
yer Party and the free coinage OF
silver will have been sounded. As
eyerv man, woman and child in the
country knows, Stewart has been,
and is. the most dreaded enemy the
gold men of the East have. They
fear him as the devil does holy
water. They are unable to answer
his arguments on the silver and
money question, and they know
that with him there is no compro-
mise. Stewart comes from one of
the main silver producing States in
the Union. Should he be defeated
the gold men of the East will laugh
at Nevadans and say we are lot
of chumps; that we are insincere in
our fight for free coinage, and the
question will forever be buried. No
other man is so well posted on the
question, and none other has the
ability to set forth the facts of the
case so clearly as Stewart. Not
another Senator in the United
States would break himself fnan-
cially, as Stewart has nearly done,
to publish a paper to circulate free
coinage literature among the people.
There is no doubt that there are
those in Nevada who are in the pay
of the gold syndicate of the East to
defeat Stewart, and that some are
fighting him to make him put up
money. This is a contemplate line
of politics to pursue and will not
win.

DICK LLOYD ARRAIGNED.
Local Lawyer Charged with vfo1at-
ing Pension Laws

Richard B. Lloyd, the well-known Wash
ington lawyer. was arraigned this after
noon at o'clt ok before United States Com
missioner Samuel c. Mills. charged with
collecting an illegal fee in connection with
claim for pension.
George c. Stewart. principal examiner
and acting chief of the law department of
the pension office, who brought the case,
declared that Lloyd had made out decla-
ration for increase Of pension for William
Wilder, a pensioner and had charged him
and received therefor a fee of $40, the legal
fee for such declaration being s. which
is paid by the United States pension agent.
The law il was stated, expressly forbids
any person to take fee from the dpDli-
cant.
Mr.. Stewart produced a receipt which
Lloyd gave Wilder. 1t was also developed
that Lloyd had been disbarred from prac-
tice before the pei sion Office since May ;,
1924, having been previously suspended
twfce-once July %, 1879. until August IL,
1873, and again January 3. 1852, until Au-
gust ), 1885,.
The pensioner, William Wilder, an old
and very deaf veteran, testified to paying
$40 to Mr.. Lloyd for drawing up the paper
and paying Justice A. E. l.. Reese 80 cents
for witnessing his sigma ture. Justice Reese
corroborated this testimony, save that he
placed the amount at 25 cents instead OF
80 cents.
The defendant, Lloyd, frequently pune
tured the proceedings with Interruptions,
admitting the drawing UP of the paper and
receiving the fee of SO, but claiming he
cid not act as an attorney OF agent for
Wilder, but as clerk

NAVAL PROMOTIONS.
Secretary Long Approves an Opinion
That WIFI Cause Waiting.

Secretary Long has approved an opinion
CT Judge Advocate General Lemly to the
effect that where naval officers are pro-
II oted for gallant service in battle no va
oancy is created in the lower grades which
are open to appointment in the usual
course. This is contrary to the position
taken by the navigation bureau, namely,
that in a case like that of Admirals Samp-
son and Schley, who, for distinguished
services, were promoted from the grade
OF commodore that the number of COM
modores might be increased to the normal
strength by the promotion of officers in
the lower grades. Therefore these officers
must wait for their promotion until the
number of admirals are reduced to the
normal-SiX.

THE PATENT OFFICE.
Work Accomplished by the Additional
Force Authorized.

When the commissioner of patents was
making his arguments before the commit
tee On appropriate us for an increased
working force ne was met with the state
ment that 1t dia not matter how much the
examining force was augmented there
would be no difference in the work accom-
plished. This was combated by Commits
sicner Duel, who promised satisfactory res
suits If allowed additional clerks. How
we'll he has kept lis promise is shown in
the statement just issued as to the condi-
ton of the work of the office. There are
at this time exactly 1885 less applications
awaiting action than there was before the
additional force was put to work.
When The Star reporter called attention
to this statement today Commissioner
DUEL smiled and said:
I am very proud of The work thus far
accomplished. 1t demonstrates better tran
any argument what the increased force has
harmony, and the work is rapidly being
brought UP. Examiners who were months
behind In their work are beginning to see
the end. and l promise by the list of July
to have this Office in such shape than an
inventor filing his application fer patent
can expect and Will receive an action
thereon within six weeks. And as time
gees on that time limit will be reduced
Until we will be working On prompt basis.
This is what the augmented force mas
made possible, and inventors throughout
the country will rejoice at the new order
of things"
