Headed For Brooklyn.

Then Commodore Schley saw that the
first ship was coming out from the
shore, headed directly for the Brook
Ign. with the evident intention of ram
ming her. Hard arort with your helm"
shouted Schley, and the cruiser began
to go around, the smoke coming from
her tunnels in big volumes. Quickly
she turned, and quickly her big steel
ram was pointing at the first ship. The
Infanta Maria Teresa had to work in
shore to avoid being rammed. The
shells of the Texas and Oregon. with
the terrible storms of shell from the
Brooklyn had done their work, and the
smoke began to appear pouring from
her decks.
At o'clock the entire Cape Verde
squadron was outside the harbor. and
going rapidly westward. The Iowa and
the Indiana could not keep up the pace,
but the Oregon was coming across to
the assistance of the Brooklyn. which,
at 1906. was engaging the first three
ships, the Infanta Maria Teresa, Girls
tobol Colon and the Vizcaya. AT 10:11
the Spanish ships had all concentrated
their shots at the Brooklyn. and she
was in a perfect rain of shells, most of
which went over her.
Lost His Head.
Standing in this hail of shells, Com
modore Schley asked young man
named Ell. ;, who stood near him, with
a stadimeter: What is the distance to
the Vizcaya?" The man took the OBJ
servation. Twenty-Five hundred yards.

literally torn from his shoulders by an
S-inch shell.

Scare Over the Thames.

The admiralty photographer has
created a scare by reporting that the
principal channel estuary of Thames
for heavy vessels is in danger of sitting
up, has already been reduced from a
mile and a half to half a mile in
breadth and that there is little more
than nineteen feet of water on the bar
at low tide. The total obliteration of
the channel would entail a long CIR
cult for vessels entering and leaving the
Thames and radical changes in lights
and buoys.
A great demonstration is being pre-

Tor governor in 1897, a republican ma
jority over all OF 1868 in the pres-
dental year, and OF 1851 in the last pre-
vious gubernatorial election, gives way
this time to an opposition majority OF
2oo1. This is the weakest appearance
which the republican party in Ohio has
ever made in the midst OF the total vote.
The republican candidate actually re-
ceived nearly $1,000 lever votes than
were given to the ticket in 1897, al
though there was an increase OF more
than $4,000 in the total vote.
1t is noteworthy fact, largely eN-
planatory OF how Judge Nash managed
10 receive so high plurality over the
democratic candidate, while falling into
SO low minority OF the total vote, that
Judge Patrick, the democratic candidate
or acknowledgement, received AZ 4oS
more votes than were given to Mclean
the candidate for governor. The pre-
sumption is, therefore, that some 1900
democrats voted for Jones by way OF
protest against McLean's candidacy,
and that Judge Nash would have won
by only a bare plurality, if at all, had
The democratic leader been man less
Objectionable to his party. AS it was,
he democratic candidate carried 80 out
OF So counties in the state, against 81
counties carried by Bryan on the fusion
ticket in 1896.
The appeal to the voters OF Ohio to
support the republican ticket came di-
rect from the Mckinley administration,
and on the issue above all others OF the
imperial policy of the president. The
response is vote which sweeps away
the republican ma oritics OF recent
years, and places the party in the deep
est minority it has ever experienced in
Ohio since its formation 1t is impos-
siblc to read into this result any other
lesson OF national import than EN-
platic protest against the presidents
course OF criminal aggression.
