French invaded Ireland in 1898, Mr.
Hale was taken prisoner by the
French and put on board French
man-o-war, but he only remained in
captivity few days. AT the siege

wound. The Eng'ish landed on the
shore, but the attack was SO close
that they had to reembark, and in
doing so he was struck on the back
with payonet. He was in the
never to be forgotten battle of Ira
falgar, in the year 1906, still con
nected with the navy. We are not
aware of any other survivor of the
Trafalgar battle; we believe We may
speak positively in reference to this
neighborhood. The circumstances
connected with this battle are so
memorable, that any survivor of hat
struggle is Of historic interest, and
the events cons .a ereOn give
peculiar interest to the life of those
who were actively engaged in bring
ing about the destruction Of the
combined fleets. He continued in
the navy under Admiral Collingwood
until about the year 1873, being
engaged after the battle of Trafal-
gar, chiefly in blockading the French
ports and harassing the French in
the Spanish ports during the PENN

TRUTHS POINTED OUT BY THE
COMMITTEES SECRETARY.

gress.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK. Sept. 25.-A Washing
ton special to the Herald says: The
managers of the Republican Congress
sional campaign say they are ready to
meet the Democrats on the war issue.
If we are to have the blame for any
mistakes that have been made or for
individual incompetency," said Mr.
Overstreet, the secretary Of the Repub-
ncan committee, then we must be
given the credit for the way in which
the President, as commander-in-chief
OF the army and navy, brought the war
to speedy and satisfactory termina-
uon. we must be given credit for the
actlon or the Republican majority in
congress, in spite of Democratic oppo-
sltlon, in making all the necessary ap-
preparations, providing for the neces-
sary supplies and doing everything that
II was possible to do to insure the sue
cess of the war, leaving only one thing
undone which we were prevented from
doing by the Democratic and Populist
opposition in the closing hours of the
session-providing for the inspection
and investigation of camps so as to dis
cover and remedy the very defects
which are now being charged to us.
In the organization of an army of
more than 100000 men some mistakes
were inevitable, and it was to be ex-
pected that some men would prove to
be incapable or even dishonest It is
surprising, when the magnitude of the
work is considered, that there is so
little to criticiSe"

Special Dispatch to The Gail.

MANILA, Sept 25-The Filipino
Congress is engaged in the considera-
ton of the question Of raising funds to
defray expenses of the maintenance Of
the army pending a decision by the
Paris conference. Hitherto the army
of the Filipinos has been chiefly sup
ported by public subscription, but now
the native government contemplates
the imposition of various taxes. The
inhabitants of the northern provinces,
however. especially Of Pampang and
Ilocious fatty refuse to pay land or poll
taxes because it was the popular i'm
preston that the revolutionists would
abolish taxation entirely.
The natives of Pampang and Pangas-
imam the richest two agricultural prov
inces of the island, and those of Iloci-
GUS and Zembales, who are the stur-
diest mountaineers, distrust the Togal-
los, and insist upon the establishment
Of an American protectorate.
Yesterday the assembly debated the
question of land ia A majority of
the members was opposed to the main
tenance of a burden unequally distrib-
uted and unduly favoring the Togallos,
and demanded that statement Of eX-
penditures be submitted before the
matter was decided. The statement
was not forthcoming, and the question
was shelyed.
Aguinaldo realizes the difficulty of
reconciling the conflicting interests, but
hopes that the nations will allow the
Filipinos a fair chance to show that
they are capable of self-goyernrnent
Aguinaldo desires the Associted Press
to inform the world that there is con-
elusive evidence that many Spaniards
and priests are intriguing with a fac
ton of the natives to foment disturb
ances so that Americans will believe
the whole population to be irreconcil-
able. He asserts that the intriguers
have money and provide uniforms to
and enter the towns, and he accuses
Eugene Blanco Of being the chief paid
agent of these intriguers.
In the course of an interview Agui-
naldo said that the Filipino fleet COM
prised eight steamers, which were
engaged in conveying troops for a
grand campaign against the Spanish
garrisons in the southern islands.
These vessels are practically I'M
armed.
The Spanish gunboat Ell Cano, he
says, recently entered Masbate and
caught and sunk the Filipino troopship
Burisan which was lying at anchor
there.
He admitted the recent purchase of the
steamer Abbey, formerly the Pasig, but
denied that she had landed rifles and
ammunition at Batangas; but he adj
mitted that she carried two Maxims
and shipload of stores.
The United States steamer Hugh Nc
Culloch captured the Abbey sixty
miles south Of MaIila. 1t is believed
that the Abbev has landed 1000 rifles.

COL. HAY WILL SOON TAKE
THE STATE PORT FOLIO
Selection of His Successor as EN-
bassador to England Yet In
Allowance.

NEW YORK, Sept ga Washington
special to the Herald says: Colonel John
Hay, 1T is expected, will arrive In this
city on Thursday, when he will receive
his commission as Secretary Of State
from the hand of President Mckinley.
In anticipation of his arrival, many Of
the diplomats who have been away on
their annual vacations are returning to
Washington. Count Cassini, Russian
ambassador, will be here tomorrow, and
Sir Julian Pauncefote is expected to be
back this week. Other diplomats are ar
irving.
When Colonel Hay takes the oath of
office he will at once notify the members
or the diplomatic corps of his arrival and
invite them to call at the State Depart
ment few days thereafter for the pur-
pose of meeting him. When these for
mal1ties are completed, Colonel Hay will
ment.
One of the first matters which will have
to be disposed of will be the selection of
MS assistant, and it is expected the Pres
ident will also consult him regarding the
appointment of an ambassador to the
Court of st. James.
1 was told positively to-day that the
PRESIDENT had not yet selected an assis,
Hay would have voice as to the person
to be named.
The President has not offered the Brit
lsh post to any one since rendering 1t to
Senator Hoar and Secretary Long, and
who will be selected cannot be definitely
stated and in fact / was told that the
President himself did not know.
So far as diplomatic questions are con-
cerned, for some reasonor other, there
is a feeling in administration circles that
the claims against Turkey are to be
pressed AS a matter of fact the ques-
ton is to be left to discussion between the
President and Colonel Hay when the lat
ter reaches Washington. 1t is presumed
that the matter will be kept In the cham
nels of diplomacy, and for the present
at least the President would be averse
to the employment of the navy in asking
demonstration having as its object the
collection of the claim.

CRIMINAL NEGLECT
AT VOLUNTEER CAMP
Archdeacon Bradley Speaks Of the
Inhuman Treatment OF
Sick Soldiers

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 25.-Rev. Cyrus
L. Bradley, archdeacon of the Protestant
Episcopal diocese of Eastern Pennsyl-
vania and chaplain of the First Regi-
ment, Pennsylvania Volunteers, in a SER
mon tonight severely criticized the man
agement of the volunteer camps which
came under his supervision at Chicka-
manga, where his regiment was stationed
for a long time. He said the medical,
commissary, quartermaster and ordnance
departments were all to blame, and con-
tinued thus:
l personally saw men left in the hospital
in camps for thirtv-six hours without any
medical attendance whatever. / saw men In
those hospitals suffering from fever, with the
rain beating down upon them / saw men
committed to the care of unskilled attendants
when 1t was absolutely impossible for them to
receive anything like the attention they de-
served / saw men suffering from fever, "
ing with their mouths open and their mouths
filled with flies.
In conclusion the archdeacon said:
won't say more. There is much more that
might be told If it were proper for me to tell
II but perhaps this will suffice. l had not in
tended to touch upon this phase of our ex-
perience at all, but when think that these
things have taken place in this the richest.

nation on the face of the earth. cannot hold

OREGON PREPARED TO
SAIL FOR HONOLULU
Will Leave This Week-Other Yes
sells Of the Squadron May In
clude the Vulcan.

NEW YORK, Sept. pa Washington
special to the Herald says: Instructions
given by the Navy Department to Cap
tain A. s. Barker commanding the bat
tle,ship Oregon and senior officer of the
squadron which is under orders to pro-
coed to Manila, require him to sail dur
ing the present week for Honolulu.
Reports received at the department yes
terday announced that the Oregon Is
ready for the voyage and will be in condi-
ton to sail tomorrow. The supply ship
Celtic, the distilling ship Iris and four
GOLFERS which will accompany the battle
ships will be ready during the next few
days. The department is considering the
advisability of attaching the engineering
and repair ship Vulcan, which did such
magnificent work in Cuban waters, to
the squadron. Rear Admiral Dewey is in
need of such ship, and 1t may be de-
cided to send her along with Captain Bar
ker's command. The Vulcan received or
ders Yesterday to come north at once.
She will undergo such repairs as may be
necessary, take on board supplies and
will be ready for the voyage, 1t is stated,
by the latter part of the week. With the
Vulcan at Manila 1t will be unnecessary
to send ships to Hongkong for repairs.
Besides the authorities expect the Pacific
time to come; hence the decision to place
the squadron in the East in the highest
possible state of effectiveness and to sup
ply 1t with all necessary equipment. The
squadron on its way around to Honolulu
will make stops at but three points
Bahia Sandy Point and the Galapagos
Islands.
