Lieutenant Carranza Denies Accuracy Of
Its Published Translation.
MONTREAL, Que, June 6.-The news
that the missing Spanish letter which
was stolen from Lieutenant Carranza
had been given out for publication has
created a decided sensation among
those particularly interested.
The letter, Lieutenant Carranza said,
was not addressed to the Spanish min
lister of marine, as statad, but to his
(Carranza's) cousin. Admiral Gomezi-
may. The supposed translation of the
letter as given in the dispatches was
full of errors and contained language
which he had never used. In the first
place he had never spoken disparag-
ingly of Camara.
AS to a spy service, all he had said in
his letter was: ''They believe in the
United States that am organizing a
spy service; they seem to see spies
everywhere" He had never said that
they had captured two of his best spies,
one in Washington and the other in
Tampa. That was pure falsehood,
invented by the Americans, who were
looking for something to blow about.
There were other errors which ap-
peared in the translation of the letter
as contained in the dispatches which
showed that it had been altered to bet
ter suit the interests of the American
government

boat destroyer Mayfower arrived at
Mole St. Nicholas yesterday conveying
the troop-ship Resolute. AS soon as.
Cemsnander Mckenzie had forwarded
dispatches to Washington the May
flower left with her consort.
AS the Mayflower is the most heavi-
~ armed, as well as the speediest, of
the large yachts bought by the govern
ment. it is supposed that the expedition
in her charge is bound for Santiago,
and that its Importance made it neces-
sary to furnish a protector able to cope
with any Spanish gunboat that might
be tempted to try to capture the rich
prize In addition to the troops, the
Resolute is known to have on board
vast quantities of ammunition for the
feet.

SPAIN'S PRAYER FOR PEACE.
Burden Of War Too Heavy for the Al.
ready Sinking Monarchy.

Burden Of War Too Heavy for the Al
ready Sinking Monarchy.
WASHINGTON. June 6.-The belief is
growing in the best informed govern
ment circles that Spain is sincerely
anxious to make peace, and even now
she is seeking a favorable opportunity
to make overtures in that direction.
Numerous evidences of this have come
to the attention of the authorities
here, but up to this time no actual
move has been made toward ascertain
ing on what basis the United States
would consider peace.
The desperate condition of the Span
ish forces at Manila, Santiago and Ha-
vana are reasons why Spain should be
solicitous at this time for peace. With
this comes the report of the serious
embarrassment of the Bank of Spain,
on which the government relies for
funds to carry on the war.

SPANISH SPIES TO BE Ex-

Substance Of Carfanxa's Letter Sent BY

WASHINGTON, June s. Steps have
been taken by which it is expected that
Lieutenant Carranza, who has conduct
ed the Spanish spy system at Montreal,
with his associate Senior Du Bose, the
former first secretary oil the Spanish
legation here, will be expelled from
Canada within the next few days un-
less they adopt their own means to

is raised as to their presence in Canada.
The Carranza letter. detailing his
spy system. was communicated to the
British ambassador, Sir Julian Paunce.
fote, together with all other informa.
ton bearing on the operations of the
Spanish officials in Canada. The am
bassador was quick to act in the mat.
ter, and without waiting the slow pro-
cess of the mail he cabled the entire
matter to the foreign Office.
1t is expected that Lord Salisbury
will call the attention af the Spanish
government to the undesirability OF
remain in Canada longer, as their OPP
erations are so obviously hostile to the
United States. The British statutes, as
well as those of Canada, have specific
provision against the use of British or
Canadian territory by foreigners tenn
porarily seeking asylum there, as the
base of hostile operations against
countries with which Great Britain
and her colonies are at peace.
This, however, may become unneces-
sary if the Spanish officials withdraw
from Canada at once, as there appears
to be no disposition to prosecute them.
or to give them an enforced expulsion
so long as they are willing to close
their operations and depart.

MANILA HERO DEAD
CAPTAIN GRlDLEY OF THE 0LYM-
PASSES AWAY.
Result Of Manila Battle-While Winning
Laufels He Suffered Fatal Injuries
Was One Of tho Brainiest and Pluckiest
Omcers In the Naval Service.

WASHINGTON, June 9. - Captain
Charles V. Gridley. commander of the
cruiser Olympia, and one of the heroes
of the brilliant victory at Manila, is
dead. The announcement of his death
was received by the Navy department
in a cablegram from Paymaster Gait of
the navy, dated at Kobe, Japan, June
4, and directed to Secretary Long. The
dispatch contained the simple state
ment:
Captain Gridley died to-day. Re-
mains accompany me on Coptic."
Captain Vernon Gridley is the first
American officer of great prominence
whose death is direct result of the
war with Spain. AS the commander of
Admiral Dewey's splendid flagship and
one of the admiral's chief advisers,
Captain Gridley achieved distinction at
the battle of Manila bay and added to
his previous laurels by winning high
praise from his superiors in the service
for distinguished gallantry and ability.
He fought his ship from the coming
tower, while Admiral Dewey directed
the movements of his squadron from
the bridge of the vessel. 1t was not
known for several weeks after the en-
gagement that Captain Gridley had
suffered from it, and even now the
precise nature of his trouble is not dis
closed.
Upon the arrival of the cairo at
Hong Kong on May 20, the navy
department was notified that Captain
Gridley had been condemned by a
board of medical survey and Sin
valided" home. Subsequent advices re-
ceived by the department indicated
that Captain Gridley was suffering
from the effects Of rupture supposed
to have been received in the battle at
Manila, but no details were given. On
May 20 they left Hong Kong on the
steamer Coptic, one of the vessels of
the Occidental and Oriental steamship
line. It would appear that Captain
Gridley died about the time the ship
reached Kobe.

TERROR REPORTED SUNK.

Spanish Destroyer Said to Have Fallen
Prey to American warship.
KINGSTON, Jamaica. June GA dis
patchsfrOm Port Antonio says: "a
vessel that has arrived here from San
tiago de Cuba reports that the Amer
leans sunk, on Friday night. the Span
ish torpedo boat destroyer Terror"
The assumption, based upon dis
patches from Madrid, has been that
destroyer Terror, after leaving Fort de
France, went to Porto Rico, and it is
probable that the Port Antonio dis
patch confuses her with her sister de-
stroyer the Furor, as has several times
been the case in dispatches from other
points.

HOBSON'S HEROISM.
IS UNEQUALED IN THE ANNALS
OF AMERICAN HISTORY.
Narrow Channel L. Completely Blockaded
by tho Wreck of the Merrimac-Cer-
vera's Fleet No Longer Of Any Use to
Spain.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, June 6.-Rear
Admiral Sampson, during Friday morn
ing, decided to close the morrow
harbor entrance of Santiago de Cuba
by sinking the collier Merrimac,
loaded with coal in the channel. He
called for volunteers to 60 to almost
certain death, and 1900 men offered
themselves. Lieutenant HObson and
Six men were chosen, and at a. m.
Friday morning the Merrimac, under
her own steam, entered the channel
under a terrible Spanish fire. The YES
sci was riddled with projectiles. but
she anchored and swung around. Lieu
tenant Hobson then set off an internal
torpedo with an electric attachment.
when there was an explosion, the Merri-
mac sank and the channel was closed
and, apparently, Admiral Cervera will
be unable to escape.
Hobson and the hero crew of the
Merrimac were saved in the following
manner: Unable, after the sinking of
their vessel, to make their way back
through the storm of shot and shell,
they rowed into the harbOr to the
Spanish flagship and were taken on
board unframed. The Spanish adj
miral, under flag of truce on Friday,
sent word to the American admiral
that he offered to exchange the pris-
oners, adding that, in the meantime,
Hobson and his party would be treated
with the greatest kindness.
Lieutenant Hobson appears to have
carried out his plans to the smallest
details, except as regards the methods
of escape. The rOwboat in which the
crew were to attempt to escape was
either blown up or shot to pieces,
for Lieutenant Hobson and his
men drifted ashore on an old catama-
ran which was slung over the ships
side at the last moment as an extra
precaution. Upon reaching shore,
the men. were taken prisoners
and sent to Santiago city under
guard. Later they were taken to
Moro castle, where they are now.
Captain Oveido, Admiral Cervcra's
chief of staff, who boarded the New
York. under flag of truce, did not
give further details of the capture.
The bravery of the Americans evident
ly excited as much admiration among
the Spaniards as it did among the men
of the American fleet. The prisoners
will be perfectly safe, and will prob
ably be well treated while they remain
in MORO castle.
Cushing's memorable feat in blowing
up the Confederate ram Albemarle is
overmatched by Hobson's act, for Cush-
ing's men crept up Albemarle sound at
midnight and fell upon an unsuspect-
ing foe. Hobson took his ship, over
$50 feet long, into the very focus of the
battery, with the enemy at the guns,
and blew her up. Discovery at the end
of his journey was inevitable, and
death was almost certain. No name,
therefore. can be written higher on
wars temple of fame than his.
Like Cushing's deed, Hobson's des-
perate undertaking was conceived by
him who executed it.
