LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
THAT CONAwAY LETTER,

To the Editor Of the Evening Journal.
Sir: The inveryiew with DR.. c. r.
layton regarding the part he played in
the matter Of the Conaway
letter TO A. j. white, as reported in
the Evening Journal OF February T.,
IS interesting, amusing and would
have been better had he said nothing
layton says "The letter was deliv-
erod TO William Fleetwood for the
purpose OF mailing or suppressing ac-
cording to Fleeiwood's judgment" E"
This can be proved false without the
evidence Of the second letter, which
Conway signed and did not give TO
Fleclwcbd.
layton SAYS: The le,ter was not
sealed nor stamped" This is another
fabrication, for It can be proved by
Mrs Conway, who sealed and stamp
ed the letter, and by two persons to
whom Fleetwood acknowledged the
letter was both sealed and stamped,
ana II opened it was not done by him.
Layton says: "AEter the lapse OF
four days, to ascertain the truth Of the
statement, / drove out To Conaway's TO
find out about the matter. but Coma
way being too sick for any consider
ate person TO disturb him with the
matter, ] placed the letter in Mrs.
Conaways hand 20 destroy"
No one doubts that Layton gave the
letter that Conaway wrote to A. j..
White and gave to Wi,liam Fleetwood
to mail, both sealed and stamped. to
White. Tut which Fleetwood gave to
Layton by way OF suppression" from
White that Gale Layton might read to
Alldicks chat he might know that
Conaway was for the election OF Ad-
dicks for United States senator. and
not Addicl1s OF nobody. No one doubts
chat Layton gave this letter to Mrs.
Conaway to burn, and no one doubts
or will doubt that Layton did not do
This till he had read the letter to Ad-
dicks or was so considerate for Coma
ways sickness when II Is known and
cam be proved that Layton, when he
took the lel.er to give Mrs. Connway
40 bum TO save prosecution OF possi-
bic, that he, layton, did ask Conaway
to give a letter stating that II he Coma
way, would not vote for "Addicks or
ncbcdy." that he. Conaway, would
vote for Layton A very consider
ate person this man layton is, but
layton now kncws that in his "con-
sideration' that Conaway would not
give him the letter asked for by him.
and tle suppression of his letter to
White by Layton and Fleetwood, Is no
inducement for him. Conaway to do
anything that Layton wants. Layton.
like Fleetwood, has Acknowledged both
in point and otherwise that they pre-
vented White from reading the letter
that Conaway wrote Only fools will
go 70 a person they have wronged for
other iayors that things may go their
way.

TWO EMPIRES.
Contrast In Methods of Colonization
Afforded by spain and
England.

Capt. a. I. Mahan contributes most
excellent article 10 the current number
of the Engineering News. 1t is excel
lent in the way in which it contrasts
the methods of the two great coloniz-
ing nations Of modern times-Great
Britain and Spain. France and Holland
as colonizers do not belong in the same
class. They have not transmitted their
national characteristics to the colony,
but have rather administered from
without.
The close Of the nineteenth century
secs the United States in virtual pos
session Of the bulk of Spain's colonial
empire--a string OF islands which prac-
tically eucircle the globe. There could
not be better contrast in empires.
Spain has left her colonies impuver-
ishcd and half-famished; England pos
sesses hers in comparative plenty. Both
are the results of administration.
Spain from the very FIRST was inhu-
manly oppressive to the inferior races,
and she spared not even her own de-
scendants in the colonies, for when
they became aliens she became to them
tyrannical and exacting. She OPP
pressed and extorted; she endeayorcd
to make her colonies pay their own
home debts.
On the other hand, Great Britain has
oeen benefcent to weaker communities
And not only beneficent, but she has
been strong as well-strong in the
quality Of men she has sent out to ad
minister and to colonize, strong TO pro
tect on land and sea. Her energies have
always been directed to the elevation
Of the races. The conspicuous exam
pies Of colonial administration are IN
dia and Egypt.

CASH VALUE OF IMMIGRANTS
It l. shown That Germans Bring the
Most Money Into the Country
and the Italian Least.

If one were to gauge the worth Of
newly arrived immigrants BY The
amount of money they bring with
them, those who come from Germany
would take first rank. England would
hold second place and Italy the last.
The average German who comes TO
this country brings S52.96 with him.
When the average Englishman comes
he brings S1.4O less. or S51.50. The next
wealthiest average immigrant ia the
Frenchman, who comes with S47.23 in
his pocket. The Belgian is fourth in
the list with S45.6O.
The Italian, who is the poorest Of all,
brings Sg.9s. but IL is safe TO say that he
returns TO his native land the wealth
lest of all who go back If his propensity
for saving is thing to judge by.
The Turk who comes TO America
brings $3.50 with him, and stands well
toward the top of the list The average
Irishman comes over. to stay, with q
capital Of $3.50. while the Russian. ac-
cording 10 the annual report Of the
commissioner general Of immigration
brings s12.1o.

~ too pumped 10 shout. And now a
word as to the resut of the trail rope
experiments
Our experiments were made at a
height OF from 300 feec to 400 feet
thus leaving from 100 feet to 200 feet
Of trail rope on the ground. We found
that with this leverage we could work
our sail and the balloon to which it
was fixed so that we could dLverge a
point and a quarter to right or left Of
the wind course. In fact, it gave US a
range of two and a half points, within
which we could alter the course Of the
balloon With the wind blowing west
by south, our course was naturally
east by north. Compass bearings ta-
kan showed it as about half way be-
tween east by north and east BY using
the rope reevei through one pulley
and hauled on that end of the sail, the
balloon swung at onee, and the curve
OF the trail rope could be distinctly
noticed BY compass bearings we
| found that we had brought her round
to course east-nOrtheast-i. e., about
a point and a quarter off the direct
course of the wind Similarly in the
other direction, we were able, by using
the other rope, to slew her round to a
course Of east by south. Mr.. E F..
Knight, who was one of our parry, is
one of the ablest boat sailors IN Eng
land, and carefully took our compass
bearings for us. we could also tell
Wen by the line of rail, for our wind
course lay straight parallel with it,

able to diverge considerably tIom it.

FLOATS OVER MoRRo.
The Historic Flag Was First Ioisted
In Philadelphia During the
Civil War.

Few American flags have a more in
teresting history than attaches to the
banner which was flung 20 the breeze
over Morro castle, Havana, on New
Years day 1t first flew over the Corn
Exchange national bank, Philadelphia,
when the famous Corn Exchange regi-
ment Of volunteers was organized for
the war Of the states. 1t flew over the
bank during nearly the whole Of the
war and was then secured by the late
ex- United States Senator Alexander q.
Cattell, then an officer Of the bank He
took IL to his residence in Merchant
Vile, n. j.. and stored it away as a
sacred thing. While President Grant
was visiting Senator Cattell he raised
the historic banner to a pole over the
senator's mansion-an act that added
materially to the historic value of the
starry emblem. After that the flag was
again stored away as a priced relic.
When ex-senator Cattell died IL was
practically forgotten until George w
Algor procured it from the estate and
presented it TO the government for the
purpose to which it was put at Ha-
Naua.

sANDuOwN, GEOGRAPHICALLY
CONSIDERED.

From one Of cur patrons we have
received the following letter Of in
quiry;
Sir: TO settle a dispute. win you
please inform me whether there is
such a place as Sandtown IN Delaware,
and whether there is such person as
Biil Jones? SUBSCRIBER
Yes, there is such place as Sand
town. 1t is situated on the banks OF
the head waters OF the Choptank
river in South MurdeilSill hundred,
Kent county. It is eighteen miles
from Marsh Hope; fifteen miles south
west Of Dover; fifteen niles from
Horse Head; twelve miles from Butter
pot; six miles from Wllow Grove;
mine miles from Canterbury; three
miles from the centre OF the sloclzum
district and one mile from Buzzard's
Hill, or Baptist Branch. The town
consists of a store, post office and
three dwelling houses. John Hughes Is
postmaster. He is n Democrat, and
as there is no Republican resident Of
the town. he holds on under RepuI0-
lican administration. Mail matter for
Sandtown goes 10 Goldeborough, Md.
by train. and thence to Sandtown by
wagon. There is neither churich nor
school in Sandtown, but within mile
or two Ut it there are a Baptist and
a Methodist Protestant Church Ex-
Governor Robert j. Reynolds and ex-
State Treasurer Wilbur r. Bprnite re-
side near Sandtown. and much of Its
growth and prosperity is due 10 their
indefatigabIe efforts in that behalf.
Sandtown is in what Is known as

pleasantly which, while affording con-
siderable amusement, never worked to
their discredit OF disadvantage.
With rtepecc to tho inquiry
whether there is such a pers-n as Hon.
