BRILLIANT WEDDING.

His particular service at Santiago
proved invaluable.

His particular service at Santiago
proved invaluable.
Skaters army had ..been delayed at
Port Tampa, although the transports
were loaded with human cargoes, be-
cause of story circulated that part
of Cervera's fleet had escaped from
Santiago harbor. 1t was necessary
that this report be disproved if posi-
BILE and Lieut. Blue was the officer
selected for the mission. He was then
second officer on the Suwanee. Wear
ing his uniform and side-arms, the
brave young officer landed at Asera-
deros on June II, 1898, and went in
land to the camp of Rabi, the insur-
gent General, who furnished guide
and mule. He found three other
guides at an insurgent post nearer
Santiago and with these he made his
way to hillside commanding view
of Santiago harbor.
He returned to Rabi's camp on the
night of the 18th and reported on the
Suwanee the next morning. The dar-
ing journey had taken him 70 miles
through the enemy's country.
On June 25 Lieut.. Blue went ashore
again in order that Admiral Sampson
might once more verify the position
of the enemy's squadron. This mis-
sion too, although more dangerous
than the first, was successful. The
young officer had defied capture, his
second journey carrying him over in
trenchments thrown up by the enemy,
and through their lines.
Lieut.. Blue, like many heroes OF
the recent war, is a Southerner He
was born in North Carolina but his
family now live in Marion, S. c.,
where he has mother and five sisters.
He is 80 years old and has been in the
navy sixteen years which includes
the time spent at the naval academy.
He is personal friend of Lieut.. Hob
son, having graduated from Annapo-
lis two years before the officer who
became the hero of the Merrimac.
Lieut.. Blue was an officer at the
naval academy when Lieut. Bagsley
was a student there and he was q
warm friend of the brave young
Southerner who gave his life for his
country.
For time after the battle of Santi-
ago, Lieut.. Blue was in command of
the captured gunboat Alvarado.
Later he was transferred to the U. S.
S. New York and for some months
past has been doing duty on the
Massachusetts,.

SCHURMAN'S VIEWS.
Congress Should Proclaim IA Philip
pine Policy.

New York, Oct. 20.-President Jacob
Gould Schurman of Cornell university
was the guest at dinner last night of the
Aldine association at the clubrooms
Fifth avenue and Eighteenth street. Cen
eral Francis V. Greene, Captain French
Il. Chadwick, U. S. ~, and Captain ii.
@. Taylor, u. S. n, were among the
guests. Ii. Blanchard Dominick presided.
President Schurman, who was one of
President McKinley's Philippine commits
sioners, made a speech in which he terse-
ly summed up the troubles in the archi-
pelago. Dr. Schurman spoke in part as
follows:
Under the law of nations the United
States has unimpeachable sovereignty
over the Philippine Islands. This involves
responsibility for their government. Our
tutelage, at least for some time, is the
one thing that can save the Filipinos
from despotism and anarchy and their
islands from division among the Euro
pean powers. National obligations and
the best interests of the Filipinos there
fore forbid our turning back after having
once put our hand to the plow.
at would seem both just and polite for
congress Ito whom the treaty delegates
the function) to declare authoritatively
what rights and privileges the Filipinos
are to enjoy under American sover-
eighty.
II do not ask for a reduction of our
forces. On the contrary, think congress
should vote the president-unanimou
too-all the men and money that in any
contingency can be needed for the prompt
suppression Of Aguinaldo's instruction.
But that is not enough. There are 6,OO0,-
900 or 100000 Filipinos who are not
fighting u.s. The Tagalogs who are fight
ing us number, men, women and children,
not more than 100000. plead alike on
the ground of justice and expediency for
an authoritative announcement to these
peaceful Filipinos-the great majority of
all the inhabitants of the archipelago-of
the political and civil rights, privileges
and immunities which the president and
congress of the United States undoubted-
| ly have ready to bestow upon Them"
