NO PROTEST HAS
 BEEN ENTERED Against Nicaraguan Government Regarding Canal Concessions. TRANSACTION AT MANAGUA Has Not Been Made Clear to State De- partment, and Minister Merry
 Has Been Called Upon to
 Make Report.
TRANSACTION AT MANAGUA

Washington, November 3.-It Is said at the state department that our government has not yet protested against the reported action of the Nicaraguan government in granting a concession for the construction of the Nicaraguan canal to Eyre and Cragin, after the expiration of the Mari time company's concession next October.
 What the department has done is not of recent date and consists solely in the mak- ing of representations to the Nicaraguan authorities to the effect that the United States deemed it only fair and proper that the status quo should be preserved in mat ters relating to the Nicaraguan canal con- cession until the board, headed by Admiral Walker, has had a chance to report, and congress an opportunity to consider that report. Thus it is diploma tically some what difficult to form protest. The rea- son that this action is taken is that the making of new concession by the Nica- raguan government, even though it would take effect only on the expiring of the present concession to the Maritime coni- pany, might operate to prevent the latter from obtaining an extension of it's conces- sion to which 1t might be justly entitled. III tHC SfSHt that CoHSTSSS SHOulQ leBlSldte upon the basis of a construction of the canal under the auspices of the Maritime company, this, of course, would seriously jeopardize the interests of the United States.
 At present the department is somewhat in the dark as to the details of the trans- action at Managua and has called upon United States Minister Merry for report upon the subject. It is not probable that the peculiar action of the Nicaraguan gov ernment in hurrying this legislation through on the last day of the national in- dependent existence of Nicaragua will in- fluence the state department in its treat ment of the subject for, so far in all of its dealings with the republics that combined formed the greater part of Central America, the state department followed by Secretary Olneys lead has been careful to reserve all rights. such as concessions to individuals as well as governmental rights, in treating with the new reformed organization.

 Unwholesome Food Sold

There was vast amount of unwholesome were prohibited. The witness cited the Eighth and Ninth New York regiments, which had canteens, and he said almost the entire regiments were stricken by disease. This witness also read the statement of Captain Chas. Price, of the Second entucky, who told of hearing shrieks from the Ninth New York ward, and after investigating he found that Major Hubbard was trying to administer medicine to a patient. The major was brutal. Price interferred, and Hubbard said that was the only way to humor patient. The only explanation that he gave was that the man refused to take the medicine.
 The reading was at this point interrupted by the appearance of Captain Price, and he was examined. He testified that on one occasion when he went to the hospital to see one of his men who was i'll with measles, he was informed that the patient had been detailed to carry water. The measles wards were packed the men being hedged in like sardines. The same was true of the typhoid and malarial wards. The witness in describing the action of Major Hubbard, said that he choked the patient and forcibly pressed him down on the cot He then caught the patient s hands and then wrenched them until the poor man shrieked with pain. At this point the witness said to Hubbard
 "I do not know your name or rank, but this brutality must stop.''
 Hubbard did not stop, but said some- thing about showing a patient how to take medicines.

NO FURTHER EFFORT
Will be Made to Raise the Sunken
 Spanish Warships.

Washington, November 3.-Secretary Long said this evening that the government would take no further steps to raise the rest of the Spanish warships destroyed by Admiral Schley's fleet off the coast of Sam tiago, but that the department would receive propositions to that end from any private firm that de- sired to undertake the work. He added that this determination was based upon the report of the board of construc- ton which recently held a convention on the subject with Naval Constructor Hob- son, who was personally supervising the wrecking operations. The existing contract with the Merrtt-Chapman company will be abrogated and operations entirely suspend ed on the Colon and other ships pending propositions from private firms to do the work independent of the government. It is understood that there are two companies willing to undertake the work at their own risk, one Swedish concern.

THE Dispatch rips the council up
for not repairing the sidewalks. With
knowledge of the condition OF the
city we are Of the opinion that the
council is powerless. The poorest
sidewalks in the city are IN front OF
private property, and should be fixed
by lot owners. II this was done the
council could make the crossings pas
sable. Now il the manager will al

the fact that several boards are out OF

suggest that he set good example OF
public spirit in this line, as he does
in 80 many others.

The bl-snnusl scandal at the insane
asylum has broken out. The super
intendent on last Sunday morning
resigned through the columns of the
republican dsilies, and made grave
charges. The HERALD urges upon
the governor thorough investigation
OF the charges made by the superin-
tendent, not one like the present in
vOstigation Of the war scandal, but
one by commission of men who will
get at the facts of the matter. The
peoples party cannot afford to let
these charges 60 unnoticed. Gov
ernOr LOedy must have the asylum
investigated. Personally we think
the story a little fishy. Here is a
superintendent who has been in
charge for eighteen months, and less
than atnonth before election sudden.
