Ger of the Brooklyn.
New York Press: ~ told Hodgson this
morning that II he could stand being
practically called a liar by schley
there were Just two things for him to
do-elther resign from the ships COM
pany or ask for board Of inquiry"
This is what an officer Of the Brook
Iyn said to an acquaintance on Sunday
night. For apparent reasons his name
Is not used. He was referring to the
controversy between schley and Hodg-
son over the truth OF an interview pub,
lIshed in a New York paper, in regard
to the famous loop made by the Brook
Ign by schley's orders year ago yes
terday. when the Santiago fleet was de-
stroyed of Santiago.
IAN the other officers on the Brook
lya feel the same way about II" con-
tlnued the sailor. Its diSgraceful that
the navy should have got mixed up in
such row."
WHO was to blame for 1t all any
wuy7" esked his companion.
The newspapers. The thing Is,
Schley Is a newspaper man. You know
him three days, and he'll tell you what
he's going to do and what he thinks OF
doing, and then he'll go and do some
thing else. You can know Sampson
three years, and you'll never know
what he's going to do until he does 1t.
He's a sphinx. Sampson Is like Dew
ey, but he's more like Nelson.
There never should have been any
controversy about the Santiago fight
It was SIMPSONS fight-there's no
doubt about that. The whole plan was
SIMPSONS. and all Schley had to do
wos follow Sampson's orders. 1t made
no difference whether Sampson was on
the spot or miles away. He arranged
everything. and his orders were law.
II the Spanish fleet came out and sailed
to the east Schley had orders to run
up one signal. If the feet sailed to the
south he had orders to hoist another
signal, and so II 1t sailed to the west,
as 1t did. Simpsons orders were obeyed
and It was his fight. and there was no
necessity for all this row. We hoped
the navy would escape being drawn In
to politics."
was the Texas in any danger from
the Brooklyn making that loop?"
None whatever. When she saw
what we were about to do she stopped
and backed and then ran up again. II
schley had not made that loop the
Brooklyn might have been rammed by
the Spaniards."

The pittsburgh Dispatch refers to a
notable feature of Independence Day in
the extent to which the American colors
were displayed abroad; that the flag
was "twined with the emblems Of other
countries to an extent never before
known-a mark of respect and esteem"
The Dispatch is not supporter of the
so.called expansion policy, but 1t speaks
the truth and utters broad American
sentiment when 1t believes that this re-
spect paid to the stars and stripes is a
token that the sacred principles repre-
scented by our flag are coming to be un-
derstood all over the world since Old
Glory was unfurled in the cause of OPP
pressed humanity in Cuba"

the somewhat doubtful caption, THE

the editorial page of the CourIer-Jour-

view the character and influence OF Mr..

AS 1t is one OF his emotional occasions,
and an announcement Of support for
what he condemns, the colonel prints
his article In double column. When
the colonel ardently embraces in the
last paragraph what he savagely de-
nounces In the preceding sections, he
throws two columns into one. He seems
to find n moral balm In taking out n
couple Of printers rules when he writes

Answering Antl.ImperIslists.

Chicago Tribune: DR.. Briggs, the jur-
LIST and a robust American. who is con-
nected with the faculty of the Catholic
University at Washington, maintains
in the Catholic World for July that no
other course was open TO the President
in carrying out his oath of office than
to send an army to the Philippines to
subdue an instruction. DR.. Briggs
says: "The President is absolutely
bound by his oath Of office and by the
explicit language Of the constitution
to take care that this treaty which
vests the sovereignty over the Philip
pines in the United States, and which
is the supreme law OF the land be
faithfully executed throughout all the
land over which floats our flag. To do
less would constitute an executive vio-
latlon Of the constitution and the laws"
DR., Briggs cOmmends to the anti-im-
periaIlsts the fact which they studious-
~ ignore, that the "inltatory attack OF
the TaEalos and Chinese half-breeds,
styling themselves 'Filiplnos' was made
upon the American army on the night
Of February 4, 1899, while the peace
treaty was still pending, and their
armed resistance to the authority OF the
United States has been maintained
since the ratification thereof" He
also calls attention to the fact that Mr.
Lincoln was confronted with a similar
condition Of affairs in 1861, and that he
faithfully executed" the supreme
law Of the land" without allowing the
national sovereignty to be houted while
waiting for Congress- to declare war"
against insurgents" When his acts
were subjected to the judicial scrutiny
Of the supreme court, tine constitution
al doctrines then laid down could not
more completely cover the present em-
Urgency II the courts had been gifted
with prescience."

A Tammany Independence Day cele-
bratlon was characterized by display
of enthusiasm for Bryan and free silver
under the the thrilling eIoquence of
Governor Hogg, of Texas, much to the
disgust and chngrIn of the leaders, who
were expecting something quite differ
ent. Their disappointment was quite as
intense as 1t was when they found that
their invitations were ignored by dis
tingulshed Democratic lenders. and
faced the failure to promote the Van
wyck boom. We may now look for a
confusion In the ranks Of Tammany,
along with some lodges Of sorrow for
the day that brought the Texas cyclone
into the enemy's country.

champion Fourth Of July Cracker.

Champion Fourth Of July Cracker.
Perhaps the most notable Fourth Of
July dynamite cracker that was explod-
ed in the country, was the one which
accompanied the celebration at Victor,
Colorado. 1t was prepared and ex-
ploded from the top Of Big Bull noun
tain, mile from the town. and at an
altitude of 1000 feet. The purpose was
to produce the characteristics Of an
earthquake. and fortunately 1t was a
big success without damage to property.
This independence Day terror was
composed Of ave tons (ten thousand
pounds) Of dynamite, and was planned
by General Reardon. The Geographic
report says that the explosion was fol-
lowed by the shaking up Of the entire
city of Victor. and 1.-THE mountains for
miles around were made to tremble as
II convulsed by actual seismic move
ments." Eighty miles away the effects
OF the disturbances were felt In air.
wave shocks and sounds.
This was a thorough test Of the tree
mendous power of dynamite and DEM
onstrated how every community sur
rounded by high hills may have its own
earthquakes to order. whenever 1t feels
like experiencing the sensation. The
Intelllgencer doesn't recommend that
the idea be adopted in Wheeling, unless
1t should become necessary at some
time or other to shake up some people
who are in torpid state when the mat
ters Of granting telephone franchises,
or some other sorts Of franchises, are
being asitated.

BIG WOOL CLIP OF WYOMING
THAT STATE has PRODUCED
OVER 13,5oo,ooO POUNDS.
Flockmasters Becoming Wise and
Have Sold Product In Preference
to Consigning It.
Especial Correspondence

Cheyenne, Wyo., May 27.-Sheep-
shearing in Wyoming for this year has
practically been completed, and the re-
suit is generally satisfactory to WOOL
growers throughout the state. The wool
clip of the state for the year 1898 was
about 100000 pounds. The clip for
this year is now estimated to be about
$780, 600 pounds short of this amount, but
the wool is much cleaner and the de-
mand consequently more active. In
fact, on account of its freedom from
burrs and sand, Wyoming wool is be-
coming a favorite among the Eo-called
territorial woods.
masters in disposing of their clips this
year is radically different from that of
previous years. Heretofore fully 80 per
cent of the clip of the state has been
shipped on consignment to eastern
commission houses, for sale at their
discretion, and presumably for the best
interests of the consignor. The idea has
prevailed for some time, and has been
especially strong during the past year,
that the woolgrowers of Utah. Idaho,
Wyoming, Montana and the other west
ern states have been getting the worst
of the deals under this system. and this
year there has been crusade in the
states named against consignments.
The result has been that not more
than 10 per cent of this years clip has
been consigned to commission houses.
