forcing the United States naval forces
there has been taken. Secretary Long was
informed of Great Britain's action, but said
it was his belief that there was adequate
representation of the United States now
and that no more vessels would be dis
patched to Samoa unless further important
developments occur. The Philadelphia, he
said, with the two British ships were fully
able to cope with the situation in the pres
ent light of events. Admiral KautZ has not
requested any reinforcement, and his
recommendation under ordinary circum-
stances would be awaited The supply ship
Abarenda will sail from Norfolk on the
10th for Samoa, but its sailing has no refer
ence to recent events, having been decided
on heretofore.
The British admiralty has a number of
warships not far from Samoa in the Aus
tralaSian Islands, a special design of small
cruiser being used in that locality. The
chief naval station accessible to Samoa is
on the China coast where the Asiatic
squadron embraces some of the largest
warships in the British navy. In number
armament and tonnage the British ships
on this station far exceed those of Ger
many or any other power. The chief Ger
man naval station near Samoa also is on
the China coast at kiao Chou, where Ad-
niral Prince Henry is in command. Ad-
miral Dewey's fleet at Manila is the near
est assemblage Of American warships to
Samoa. The sail from Manila to Samoa is
about fourteen days.
The Philadelphia was short-handed for
officers before the loss of Lieutenant Lans-
dale and Ensign Monaghan, and the de-
partment promptly sent telegraphic orders
to Mare Island to dispatch some officers to
recruit the force. Lieutenant ScheutZe goes
out executive officer with Lieutenant w.
S Huges, Lieutenant Schofield and Lieu
tenant Hetherington. Surgeon Steel is or
dered from the New York navy yard to the
Philadelphia. All of these officers are eX-
pected to take the mail steamer of the
10Th instant for Apia.
Lieutenant Freeman, killed in Samoa, is
given in the British naval list as Lieuten-
ant Angel H. Freeman, the senior lieuten-
ant of the cruiser Tauranga, and next to

A TALK ON CUBA.
Burr McIntOsh's Lecture at the Sol
diers' Home.


Burr Mcintosh, a member of the Frawley
company, delivered a lecture last night in
the theater at the Soldiers Home, which
was attended not only by the inmates of
the home, but by many officials in army
and navy circles For illustrations he had
over $50 photographs that he took himself,
and for title to his talk he chose THE
Little 1 Saw of It." Beginning with one or
two pictures taken in Washington, he pass
ed to many more of scenes in and about
Port Tampa, followed these with views of
the transport fleet on its way to Cuba, and
then came the majority of all secured be-
tween the army's landing place and the
firing lines of San Juan. Many of the pho
tographs were akin to the illustrations that
aDounded in newspapers and magazines
while the war lasted. But accompanied as
they were with information as to who were
the persons shown, as to the nature of sur
roundings not in the views, and as to what
was going on at the time the photographs
were taken, they were far more interesting
than any mere picture display could be-
While graphically depicting, at times, the
horrors of warfare, a majority of the de-
Scr1ption was in d humorous vein, even SOL
diers' discomforts so severe as to amount to
positive suffering being passed off jokingly,
though 1T was made clear that in the speak,
ers opinion the cause of many of the pri
Vations la in some ones blunderS. AS all
the incidents pictured We're necessarily par
tcipated in to greater or less degree by the
speaker, he found himself using the pro-
noun "I' occasionally, and corrected him
self because of its repetitions. But he pass
ed over so lightly to make it almost I'M
intelligible to hearers who did not know it
the fact that he secured his earliest pic
lures in Cuba by swimming ashore from a
transport at a time when none but soldiers
We're being landed. He did not attempt to
conceal either, his agitation over his first
sight of mid-alr Spanish shrapnel, nor his
distaste for the sound of Mauser rifles and
projectiles. In it all was no attempt at self
glorification, nor was the plentiful praise
bestowed given only to a few.
