was present in New York when the
large checks We're delivered to Gaynor
on thai date and that he was on many
other occasions from 1892 to 1897, pres
ent in New York when payments were
made to the contractors.
He presents q statement showing the
deposits of currency made by Capt
Carter simultaneously with the cashing
of checks given to the contractors.
In this connection the Attorney Cen
eral says:
THE conclusion is forced upon the
mind that Capt. Carter during these
years from 1892 to 1897 enriched himself
to a large degree in some manner not
accounted for by his own testimony,
and the irresistible conclusion is that
the true explanation OF this rapid ac-
cesson of wealth is one that he could
not safely make and that II is to be
accounted for only by accepting the
theory that he participated in the
fraudulent proceeds of the contracts
under his charge. The statement con-
cludes:
am therefore led 20 the conclusion
that the court martial was justified In
its findings OF guilty upon the charges
and specifications relating to these con-
tract' of 1896 and that the finding and
sentence of the court with respect
thereto should be approved.

onstrations in honor OF Admiral w, s
Schley as he rode in his carriage some
distance behind Dewey, we're scarcely
less than those paid to the great ad-
m raj himself A significant feature
of these honors extended to Schley Is
that although Admiral Sampson, who

ence was hardly noticed by the surg
ing crowds as his carriage rolled by.
Dewey and Schley were the naval

ed they should know it.

Griggs' Opinion.

New York, Oct, IA special to the
Herald from Washington says:
In his interview with the president
Admiral Dewey fully agreed with the
views expressed by President Schur.
man concerning the future government
ofthe Philippine Islands. He said he
favored American control through the
medium OF a commission or a civil gov
ernor but great latitude should be AL
lower for the government of the sixty
or more tribes 50 that the administra-
ton OF affairs could be adjusted TO meet
their different habits and conditions.
President Schurman was in the city
and had a conference with Secretary
Nay. He said in an interview that the
commission would hold its first session
In this city early in November.
The adoption OF Admiral Dewey's rec
ommeudation as to Increasing the
squadron gives some token of the strict
ness of the blockade which 1t is intend
ed TO enforce. Reports received from
Rear Admiral Watson since Admiral
Dewey's departure from Manila show
that rice an dhemp have appreciated in
value 300 per cent and that In return
for exports Of these products munitions
OF war are being received by the insur-
gents.
The fact as to the low coast line of
Luzon and the ease with which goods
may be landed in one island and trans
ported to another have been fully ex-
planned TO Officials and this has made
the president the more ready to follow
the admirals advice. 1t is apparently
not intended to proclaim a formal
blockade, but rather TO enforce a local
blockade which will prevent st from
assuming International significance.
