The senator never recovered from the
unconscious state into which he lapsed
early in the day, and his death was
calm and peaceful. The immediate
cause of death was pneumonia, which
developed from an tack of grip con-

In the death of Hon. Justin Smith Nor

had served continuously in the senate for

Washing ton, Dec. 90. go There is a
good deal of anxiety in official circles
here over recent events athletic. Two
official dispatches have been received
by the state and war departments, but
II is impossible to gather from them
an accurate knowledg as to the condi-
ton there. s: 81
The officials of the war department.
still decline to make public Gen. OTIS
telegram Of Tuesday, but there is no
doubt that he is meeting with great diff
ficultyin his effort to secure the release
of the Spanish prisoners held by the
Fllipinos.: It begins to appear clearly
that considerable element among the
Filipino lead probably a majority
are disposed.to use these fortunate
prisoners as. a. basis for negotiations
with the United States government,
making their release conditional upon
certain more or less Important conces-
sions demanded by them.
1t is not yet a foregone conclusion
that terms cannot be arranged by pri-
vate conferences in Manila to secure
the release of these men, but the
United States government, being now
Pledged by treaty to free them, must
resort to other means if peaceful repre-
sensations fail. q
Just before noon another dispatch
came from Gen. Otis that at once con-
firmed the fears Of the officials of the
war department. as to what had taken
place at noilo. It appears that the
American forces had arrived too late on
the scene and that the insurgents had
added to the difficulty of the problems
already presented by hosting their flag
over the city, which they had been be-
sieging for months. The news was con
tanned in the following message from
Cen. Otis:
Washington: Sent Col Potter on fast YES.
sci to .Iloilo on oath to communicate with
Spanish General Rios; latter evacuated
evening Of Gath and Potter 80 hours late.
insurgents took possession of city on 26th
and Potter found Aguinaldo's flag flying.
Cannot now report probable results; will
not hear from there for four days. as no
cable communications. Spanish forces
nave evacuated all stations in southern is
lands, except Zamboanga Mindanao, by
orders as they say from Madrid
(Signed) .OTIs."
The evacuation by the Spaniards OF
al: the Philippine ports, as reported by
Gen. Otis, although doubtless inspired
ty a. desire to secure their safety by
concentration, undoubtedly has done
much to complicate the problem al.
ready presented the war department OF
extending the military jurisdiction Of
the United States over the islands. II
will now be necessary to expedite the
execution Of the original plans, and il
may be fully expected that within. q

THE SPANISH VESSELS.
There Was Muck Woodwork In Their
Construction, Making Them
Very Inflammable.

After, the destruction of the Maine,
and while the Vizcaya and Oquendo
were in the harbor, we could observe
no drills taking place on board these
vessels, although it is possible that
they might have gone on without our
being able to observe them There was
much ship-yisiting on board, In every
thing they did, except in respect to
etiquette, the practised nautical eye
could lot fail to note their inferiority
in one degree or another to the vessels
OF our own squadron at Key West. Our
vessels were then having general quar-
ters for action three times week, and
We're. keeping up their other drills, in
Guiding night-drills, search-light prac-
Gce, etc. The vessels of the Vizcaya
class, below in the captains cabin and
officers quarters, were one long stretch
of beautiful hardwood, finer than on
board our own vessels. The smaller
guns of their primary batteries and the
rapid-firing guns of their secondary
batteries were disposed between the
turrets ca two decks in such dovetailed
fashion that in order to do great dam
nge an enemy needed only to hit some
where in the region of the tunnels. I
remarked several times---once to Adj
mirai Sampson, who. was then Capt.
Sampson, of the court of inquiry on
the destruction of the Maine-that the
Spanish vessels would be all afiame
within ten minutes fterthey had gone
into close action, and that their quar-
ters at the guns would be slaughter
pen. Future events justified the state
ment. Afterward, when I boarded the
wreck of the Infanta Maria. Teresa near
Santiago de Cuba, her armored deck
was below water, but above that there
was not even a splinter of woodwork in
sight; in fact, there was hardly Gin
der left of her decks or of that beau
tdful array OF bulkheads. It may have
been that the Maine remained longer
in Havana than had originally been in
tended by the navy department. tt
was expected, I believe, to relieve her
BY another vessel; which vessel, I do
not know. I had hoped that the In
diana or Massachusetts, would be sent
to dispel the prevailing ignorance
among the Spanish people in regard
to the strength and efficiency of our
ships. The department may not have
accepted my vieWs.-Capt. sigsbee, in
Century.
