ADMIRAL DEWEY is all right and he gave
the German Admiral ut Manila to under
stand that America would tolerate no non.
sense from tho German feet which has
been annoying him Ut that port. The Al.
miral Is displeased at the actions Of the
Germans In stopping the insurgents at
tempt to capture a Spanish garrison in
Subig bay.
. Patience ceased to be virtue with him,
and he sent word to tho German Admiral.
Won Diedericks asking him II Germany
and America were ct war or psaco II
peace. he wanted the German ships TO pur.
sue different course and, If war. he
wanted to know Of its existence, so he
could govern himself accordingly. The
German Admiral sent word objecting to
the Americans stopping German ships
which had once been IN the bay and which
had been visited. Dewey's reply was char
acteristic Of the man. He replied that
Manila Is blockaded port and that no
would continue having all ships commu-
nicated with when he desired, whether for
the first or hundredth time Of entering.
Germany hos not acted altogether as it
should In tho difficulties with Spain. The
Kaiser should be made to clearly UNDER
stand that this country wants no foreign
Interference and will not tolerate 1t.

PERMISSION
is REFUSED
Steamer Twilight to Land
=. Excursion at Wood
land Beach.

Philadelphia, July ia humorous IN.
cidsnt ha, been brought to light b. u
suit begun in the Common Pleas Court
yesterday by the Gloucester Ferry Cons
pany against rhe Gerr ania Turn Verein.
FROM the statement OF claim fled in tho
case 1t appears that the German society
had chartered the steamboat Twilight for
an excursion to Woodland Beach on June
18th last.
Bright and early on that morning the
exoursionists appeared at tho wharf, and
were promptly loaded on tho boat, and the
Twilight, with last warning whistle to
straggiers, cast of from the pier and
started down stream. There was plenty Of
music on beard and lots Il o her things,
and as can readily be imagined the Turn
Vereinlsts-started to have Jolly good
time.
Nothing occurred to mar thcir pleasure
until the pier at Woodland Beach hove in
sight, and the bow of the Twilight was
pointed straight for 1t and everybody pre-
pared to land. IL was then that the
first clio nd appeared on the horizon 1t was
sudden ly discovered that loud and angry
words were being exchanged between the
Captain of the boat and a man on the pier.
and before tho Turn Verenisls knew what
had happened hey were informed by tho
land.
The reason for it was this. THE land.
ing at Woodland Beach is controlled by
James E. Otis and others, who are owners
Of tho steamboat Thomas Clyde, and they
mad given permission to the excursiunists
on the Twilight 10 land, but when it was
discovered thai the managers of tho excur-
sion hal sold their tickets ut reduced rates,
thus materially interfering with he rcgu-
lar traffic of the steamer Thomas Clyde,
the permission for the Twilight to land
WAS Withdrawn.
The excursionists were landed at Port
Penn, Delaware. where thoy remained I'LL
that day, and were brought back to Phil
aiclphiA by the Twilight in the evening.
They bad given the owners OF the Twilight
the Gloucester Ferry Company, u check
for $3.50 In payment for the hire of the
boat for tho day Whom the Germans re.
turned to the city, th.y blamed their mis-
fortunes on the owners Of the Twilight
ana stopped tho payment Of tho check.
Inc suit begun yesterday was to recover
the amount of this check and tho cost of
protest, with interest.
