SCHLEY'S ANSWER.
In IA Letter 10 a Senate Committee He
Replies TO Official Criticism.

Washington. Feb. 21.-Rear Admiral
Schley, having been granted permis-
sion to answer the charges recently
made against him in the communica-
ton recently sent to the senate, has
handed to the committee on naval af-
fairs his statement in which he dis
claims any purpose of controversy with
the navy department. The letter OF
the department, he says, so far as ii
relates to him, can be summarized un-
der the following heads:
THE delay off Cienfuegos; the al
legged slow progress toward Santiago
from Cienfuegos; the retrograde move
ments on the Goth and 27th of May;
the battle of Santiago and the destruc-
ton of Cervera's fleet"
The admiral says his orders from
Sampson on May 10 were to blockade
Cienfuegos, which he proceeded to do.
AS to the slow progress toward San
tago on account of the Eagle, he states
that she was a part of the force which
Sampson had seen fit to send him and
he had no right to abandon her. The
weather also was rough and not much
better speed could have been kept up.
Speaking of "the retrograde move
ments" which the secretary adapting
the language of Sampson, characterizes
as ''reprehensible conduct Admiral
Schley says that in Az years service
never was such language used to char
acterize conduct of mine and | see no
reason for it now"
AS to the battle of Santiago, Schley
says the facts of that contest speak
for themselves. He quotes from his
official report to Sampson in which he
congratulated the commander of the
squadron and said the ''victory seems
big enough for all of us" He asks the
committee to contrast his reports and
those of Sampson containing refer
ences to himself.
In conclusion, Schley contends that
the turn of the Brooklyn in the battle
of July 3 was 'the deciding feature of
the combat and of decided advantage"

young king of the islands, the engage
ment being afterward broken for rea a
son which, after the native custom, was
never made public.
Fa'muu is now 20 years old, having
been born in the village of Mulinuu, in
December, 1878.
Her latest romance is with a young
German officer Herr Otto Schiller, at
tached to the kaiser's consulate at
Samoa. Being princess, she appears
at many of the swell diplomatic recep-
'tions at Apia. On these occasions she
dons some European adornments.
These are mostly jewels, of which she
is passionately fond. Pearl necklaces
are her especial delight. She will wear
half a dozen of these, so as to complete
ly drape her breast.
But for the fimsy fabrics that most
women sigh for she cares not at all.
The traditions Of her race are decidedly
against overdressing and, "newwoman"
as she is, she clings to her peoples
tastes in this respect.
Herr Schiller, it is rumored, is at
tracted to this Samoan belle not only
on account of her dusky charms, but
by craving to win high standing
among the natives by marrying a
princess of the blood royal. This would
mean almost untold wealth.

LouBET SUCCEEDS FAURE.
Election Of a President I'm France IN
Followed by TmmuIt In Paris.

Paris, Feb. 20.-The national assem-
bly, met at Versailles on Saturday and
elected VI. Loubet president of the
French republic. The vote stood:
Loubet 4s3, Meline 279, scattering 50.
During the rioting Saturday night
over the election of NJ. Loubet 46 per-
sons were injured, including IA police
men. One journalist received a blow
on the head with a loaded stick and
was so badly injured that he was re-
moved to a hospital, where he now lies
in a serious condition. Two hundred
and fifty arrests were made and 142 of
those taken into custody are still at
the station houses, being held on
charges of carrying concealed weap-
ons.
Toward o'clock last evening dem
onstrations occurred in front of the
office of Sebastian Faure's anarchist
paper the journal du Peuple, on the
Boulevard Montmarte, for and against
LOubet. There was collision between
the rival factions and several persons
were injured. The partisans of the
newly elected president were worsted
in the conflict and moved off to the

attacked and dispersed by their oppo-
nents. Many arrests were made. Sim
liar encounters occurred at the office
of the Libre Parole and more serious
disorders at the Brasserie MaXeville,
on the Boulevard Montmarte, where
several women were trampled and in
jured.
\ fracas also took place at the Cafe
Des Panoramas, where blows were
freely exchanged. In both cases the
police interviewed energetically, arrest
ing many.
At II o'clock an enormous crowd
demonstrated in favor of VI. Zola.
Toward midnight crowds broke the
windows of the Rothschilds' Offices in
the Rue Lafitte, and another group
wrecked the offices of the Anti-Juiti.
According to the Figaro, President
Loubet is surprised at the hostility of
which he is the object and has said:
NO one has a right to say | am

A DISPLAY OF FORCE.
IL VIII Accompany an Inquiry as to
why Nicaragua 'sHOlds 1p'' Official
Tcle@rams to Uncle sam.

Washington, Feb. 23.-Nicaragua has
again offended the United States, and
is to be called to account for her i'm
polite action. Apparently at the in
stance of the Nicaraguan government.
such a strict censorship has been ap-
piled to all cable and telegraph lines
controlled by President Ielaya that it
has been impossible for either the state
or navy departments to communicate
with their agents. Protests made to
Senior Corea, the Nicaraguan minister
here, are of no avail. Protests TO the
cable companies have produced no re
suit. The administration has finally
determined to take the matter in its
own hands and has ordered a naval in
vcstigation preparatory to such action
as may seem proper.
The cruiser Detroit will make the
investigation. HeI commanding otli-
Ger. Commander Dayton, has been or
dered to proceed with his vessel from
New Orleans to Bluefelds, Nicaragua,
where he will consult with Commander
Symonds, commanding the Marietta,
now there, and deliver to him the in
structions the navy department has
been vainly trying to send by cable.
The Detroit will then proceed to Grey
town, where Dayton will make an in
vestigation into Nicaraguas peculiar
action He will be assisted in his in
quiry by Commander Symonds, who
will remain at Bluefelds, the center of
the revolution, to provide protection
for American citizens and interests.

People HomeIess-Eishti in the
Streets.

Manila, Feb. 23.-Immense damage
has been done by fires which are be-
lieved to have been started by insur-
gents last night. The fire department
experienced great difficulty in fighting
the flames, owing to defective appara-

some fighting in the streets during the
night, but the Americans quickly quell-
ed the uprising.
A number of the insurgents were
killed and several American soldiers
were wounded. a large market place
was among the first to burn. Between
600 and 700 residence and business
houses were destroyed.
Shortly after midnight another big
fire was started in the Tondo district,
where the natives are thickest, and
when the firemen and soldiers attempt
ed to work a fuSillade of rife and re-
volver shots were fired from the win
dows and roofs of the buildings.
Bullets flew in every direction in ev-
cry street in the TondO and BinondO

teenth Minnesota, and three men were
wounded. Many timid persons, imag-
