ondary sparks passing between the
balls can quite easily be recognized as
the dots and dashes of the signal.
In another part or the building, di-
rectly opposite and about two hundred
feet distant, is placed the receiver,
which consists of Clarke coherer re-
iay and receiving instrument which
has large six-inch vibrating bell con-
lected up in the local circuit, in addi-
ton to the telegraph sounder. This
six-inch bell is continually ringing out
the Morse signals, and by holding
down the hammer of the bell the sound
er can be distinctly heard repeating
the same call. t-- ~
In the center OF > garden is placed
large tank of water, and miniature
warship is placed in this tank and
doated over submarine mine, which
is connected to coherer, relay and
battery placed Immediately outside OF
the tank. One terminal of the CO.
herer is connected to earth and the
other to an insulated wire rising about
ten feet in the air.
When the time comes for exploding
the mine under the ship, the oscillator
is stopped and connection made in
the tank between the coherer and the
vibrating bell which is used for testing
purposes. The oscillator is now start
ed for an instant, to see if the bell at
the tank rings, thus proving that the
coherer is in proper adjustment.
The bell is now disconnected and
connection made to the submarine
nine instead. and at a signal from
the attendant the man at the trans
mitter again presses the button, which
throws the current into the oscillator.
The coherer completes the local cir
cult and the mine instantly explodes,
breaking the wsrship into .splinters
and throwing it and the water high in
the air. OF course, it is understood
that the mine Is provided with an or
dinary electric fuse.

WASHINGTON, March 25.-Thc Presi-
dent and the Cabinet now know what
are the findings Of the Court of Inquiry,
and therefore are better prepared to
know what effect it will have upon
Congress. -,
The Court has found that the Maine
was blown up by external agencies, and
while it does not mplicatc the Spanish
Government, the circumstantial evidence
points to the connivancc of Spallard,
and totally exonerates the Cubans from
any connection with the terrible affair
With this verdict, it is still the ques'
ton: "Can Congress be kept quiet and
await the Presidents policy in regard to
the entire Cuban question: The leaders
say it can.
The President and the Cabinet spent
the entire morning reading the report,
Commander Mark, Judge Advocate OF

report to Washington and carried It to

KEY WEST, Fla, March 25.-rhis town
is wild with excitement.
A Naval officer said today: "Spain
has perfect right, of course, to send tor
pedo-boats to her own colony. Still we
all know why they are coming so near to
Cuba. This display of force will justify
q similar movement on our part. When
we do this you may be sure it will not be
movement OF small proportions.
II cannot conceive that Spain would
BE- so suicidal in her policy as to take any
step which would make war likely.
Should war with Spain ensue the pro-
gramme to be followed by the United
States would be blockade Of Cuba. This
could be done in a few days and would
result in the quick capitulation Of the
island. There is no necessity to land
troops, as Cuba is dependent upon i'm
ports for her existence"

SAMP SON MADE PLANS
BUT THE BATTLE WAS FOUGHT
BY THE CAPTAINS
Report Of the Board Appointed to
Investigate the Naval Battle
Off Santiago

NEW YORK. Oct. 11-Although the
American fleet In the battle of Santiago
obeyed the general orders Of Rear Ad-
miral Sampson, given In advance to meet
just such an emergency, 1t was essentially
a captains fight"
This is the substance Of the report Of the
naval board which has been investigating
the disputed points in the battle. Rear
Admiral Sampson was not present, and the
two orders signaled by Schley, "Close In"
and Engage the enemy" did no good and
were unnecessary, for the ships had al
ready closed in and engaged the enemy
when the orders were run up.
The full text Of the report must ,Jme
from Washington, but many interesting
points were obtained from the navy yard
today, after the board which had been In
session on the Brooklyn finally adjourned.
The board finds in a general way that
each ship in the fleet knew exactly what
10 do should Cervera come out, and did It
when he actually came out. Each captain
fought his ship on plans prepared and or
ders given by Sampson. Even had Schey
directed the general movement Of the fleet
in the battle, which It was unnecessary for
him to do, they would have been exc
cuted because Of the preparations made by
Sampson and within his general orders.
The findings Of the board are summar-
ized as follows:
First-The battle was fought and won
upon the plans prepared by Rear Admiral
Sampson.
Second-The directing Of the movements
Of ships done by Schley during the battle
was inconsiderable. -'s''4-
Third-The New York had no active part
in the fight. r~''-'- t'~''
Fourth-The Brooklyn was not engaged
at SO close quarters at has been repre-.
sented by the first report. On an average
she was two miles away from the enemy.
Fifth-The bulk OF the fighting was borne
by the Oregon, Texas and Iowa.
Sixth-The New York was about nine
miles from the Colon when the ship surren-
dered and between four and FIVE miles
from the nearest sister ship engaged (from
which signal distance Is taken).
Sevsn-The average range Of the ships
engaged was about a mile and half.
Eighth-No American ship at any time
during the battle was within mile Of an
unsurrendered Spanish ship.
The New York, the board finds, did
nothing to affect the issue of the battle.
When the Colon's flag came down, the
New York was nearly TEN miles to the
eastward.
