PICTORIAL HISTORY.
War Department Deluged With War
Pictures

Washington, May 6.-There must have
been many pictures taken during the
war with Spain there were shots fired.
The bureau of the war department which
is engaged in making a pictorial history
of the war is simply deluged with photo

Up to the present time Captain Scherer,
who has this work in charge has received
or been promised about 5000 pictures re-
lating to the Santiago campaign alone.
He believes that he will have as many
more from the Philippines, while the oc-
cupatiOn of Cuba has been pictured in at
least 5000 different ways. The pictures
are sent in response to a general invita-

The Shamrock made more fuss forward
and dragged a wave aft. The Columbia
was the first to the mark, and as she
reached the stake boat the excursion fleet
gathered there to greet her, unbOttled their
enthusiasm and gave her an ovation from
thousand whistles. The feet also cour-
teously saluted the Shamrock as she swept
around, two minutes and one second later.

WAS 1T CAPTAIN PARKER?
Rumor That Emperor Williams
Yachtsman Came Over 1ncoE-
nito to See Race.

NEW YORK. Oct. IA dispatch to the
World from London says:
II is learned on reliable authority that
CAPTAIN Ben Parker. commander of En-
peror Williams yacht, Meteor, is now in
New York incognito. He sailed from here
on the liner New York on her last trip,
travelling under an assumed name, and
landed last Saturday.
His presence was carefully concealed
from. the other passengers. Just what his
purpose is cannot be stated, but the sur
mise is that he will advise with the cap
tains of Shamrock and give them the ben
eft of his wide experience as one or the
Europe's best known and most successful
sailing masters. Captain Parker's trip to
America is made without the formal con-
sent of Emperor William, since Captain
Parker is not officially absent from his
post of duty with the emperor He goes to
America incognito and every effort will
be made to keep his presence there quiet.
The World says:
When Captain Parker was first spoken of
| as a probable factor in the management
| of the Shamrock the German emperor de-
| clined to allow him to appear on board the
| yacht in any official capacity and the ru-
mors that he was coming to assist Cap
| tains Hogarth and Wringe was denied.
CAPTAIN Parker, however, was so anxious
| to see the races that he concealed his
| identity and made the voyage across the
ocean on tne New 1orh: lie is now III
| the city and probably will be on board the
| Shamrock to-day when she meets the Col
| umbia.
There was man on Shamrock when
| she was measured yesterday who was un-
| known to the reporters, and although sew
eral of them asked his name it was not
| learned
| Parker will not be a worker or in any
sense a skipper on the Shamrock but only
| as an old friend of Captain Hogarth. 1t is
probable. however. that Captain Parker
will give his old shipmate the benefit cf
| his experience.
