THE CAPTURED BOAT.

Washington, September 25.-The gun
boat Urdaneta, which was captured WITH
her crew at Orani about 20 miles from
Manila, on the Bay of Manila, is little
craft of only 40 tons displacement not
Inuchh Ia isrger than small tug She was
captured by the navy early in the war;
and has been on police duty in the bay
for months past. The records of the navy
show that she was one Of the boats OF
which the Oregon is the parent ship.
That is, she was supposed to draw all OF her
supplies from the battleship, to be man
ned from the Oregon's crew and to act
under the instructions of the Oregon's
commander.
According to the last reports to the de-
partment the little boat was last May un-
der command of Naval Cadet Welborn G.
Wood, but the personnel of the crew Is
not a matter of record, being subject to
frequent changes. Wood was appointed
to the Naval Academy from Oregon, had
passed bis academic course, and was per-
forming two yeals sea service at the time
of his capture.
Naturally, the department officials are
vexed that the difficulties of the negotia-
tiops looking to the release of Lieutenant
Gilmore, of the Yorktown, and his men,
should be added to by this last misfortune
Still, there is no disposition unnecessarily
to curb the junior officers of the navy who
ara rendering such gallant service in the
Philippines.

President George q. Cannon, who
spoke for an hour, was the last speaker
and delivered a very powerful address
on the prevailing subject.
But one recess was taken in the nine
hours of the conference. This was at
o'clock, and was for one hour, dur
ing which time refreshments were
passed Immediately afterward the
meeting resumed, but not all of the
time in session was occupied in speak
ing. Sacrament was administered dur

portant part. and the crowd assembled
around the outside claims to have heard
the 'hosanna shout" which attained
fame at the dedication of the building

A feature of the conference was the
perfect order and promptness that
ruled. Every speaker was intently lis
