d ro inside the hnrhnr thn mnr

to 60 inside the harbor, the war
even contemplated
having the army clear the way for
the navy, as shown, by this anus
ing dispatch from AdjutanC Gener-
al Corbin to General Shafter:
"Ysur telegram regarding the
navy entering Santiago harbor, |
received and your action thorough
ly approved. The secretary of war
suggests that if the navy will not
undertake to break through, take
a transport, cover the pilot house
in most exposed points with baled
hay, attach an anchor to tow-line,
and, if possible, grapple the tor
pedo cables, and call for volunteers
from the army-not large num-
bers-to run into the harbor, thus
making way for the navy. Be-
fore acting, telegraph what you
think of it. One thing Is certain;
that is, the navy must get into the
harbor and must save the lives of
our brave men that will be sacri.
feed if we assault the enemy in
his entertainments without aid.
This is strictly confidential to you"
What General Shafter thought
of running a ship with deck
loaded with inflamable baled hay
past fortlfications armed with rap
id.fire guns does not appear, but
he did not carry out the sug-
gcstion. Secretary Alger wrote a
letter to Secretary Long, asking
him to "order the feet off Santa,
go to at once force its way into the
bay" Secretary Longs reply was
nothing more than curt acknowl.
edgment of the receipt of Secretary
Alger's letter, and Admiral Samp.
sons orders to avoid having his
ships destroyed by mines were not
changed.
After the surrender of the city
General Snafter telegraphed for
instructions as to the vessels in
the harbor, saying that the navy
was disposed to take them. Sec
retary Alger replied:
"Be sure to take immediate pos
session of all ships and boats in
barbor. They belong to the
army"
While supporting General Shat;
ter as against Admiral Sampson
there was period before the sur
render when the war department
feared General Shafter might make
the terms of surrender too favor
able to the Spanish, and this dis.
patch was sent to him by Adjutant
General Corbin:
"Tbe president and secretary OF
war are becoming impatient with
parIey. Any arrangement that al
lows the enemy to take their arms
had as well be abandoned once for
all, as it will not be approved.
The way to surrender is to sur,
render, and this should be fully
impressed on General Toral.
send this as your friend and COM
rade, and not by authority, but
you can be guided by it with entire
safety"
This advice was not followed, as
the terms of surrender indicate
for Shafter granted further delay,
and finally permitted the Span
iards to carry their side arms back
to Spain.

SOME NEW LIGHT.
Tho Conflict of Army and Navy at santias,

Tho Conflict of Army and Navy at Santiago
New light is thrown on the
events of the war by complete
file at the war department of the
correspondence that passed through
the adjuant generals office. relat-
ing to the campaigns in Cuba and
Porto Rico. 1t is furnished by
General Corbin TO the war invest
igating committee.
One thing that is shown more
clearly than ever is that through
out the Santiago campaign there
was lack of cooperation between
the army and navy, that caused
much i'll feeling both at Santiago
and Washington, and was also
probably responsible for unduly
prolonging the campaign. Just
where the responsibility for this
friction should be placed is a mat
ter that will reqnme still farther
light before il can be settled. 1t
began, apparently, when General
Shafter arrived at Santiago aud re-
fused to adopt the plan Of action
suggested by Admiral Sampson,
and it was continued after Cory
era's fleet was sunk and Sampson
ordered to send his ships inside
the harbor.

To See the Ruins.

Bert Chandle, went to Muskogee
last night to see just how things
looked. The loss of Chandler & Co.
was between $500 and $4,000; insur-
ance sl10O, making net loss about
$500. They saved $50 worth Of stuff.
A policy for $500 had run out.
"Words can't describe the looks OF
the ruins" he writes. The Turner
Hardware Co. resumed business at
once, the Daily Times issued last
evening, and resumption is expected
all along the line. The smallpox
quarantine was raised yesterday.

A Violation of the Law.

We don't know who authorized the
running OF the spindle game on the
bank corner, but it is violation OF
the federal law all the same and would
better stop. About year ago Judge
Thomas went on the street here in
person and told the spindle men to
quit or he would have them arrested.
The town don't need revenue badly
enough to allow people to set up
gambling devices on the principal
street OF the town at any price.

The Smith murder examination was
conducted by the commissioner yes

bail. A number OF witnesses, whoare
Senecas, went home on last evenings

the victim, who was drunk, trying to
whip his wife. He was killed by his
son-in-law, with an axe handle, in the
presence Of the family.

Fun With the Shriners.

The newly made Mystic Shriners
returned from Oklahoma City last
evening. But their arrival differed
from Admiral Cevera, who when he
reached Santiago telegraphed his
queen that he had arrived there
without incident" j. r. Shcehan
to have little fun with his fello "
pilgrim, telegraphed from Sapulpa:
"Farley can't walk; meet him at
depot with stretcher." He was ''met"
and despite his protestations that his
powers OF locomotion were unim-
paired, he was hoisted on the stretcher
and carried up town. An attempt at
a little by-play on both the boys fail
ed. A dispatch was sent Jim Sheehan
at Chelsea stating: "Town quaran-
tined against points west of Clare
more; get of at water tank and walk
in" He was too smooth to be caught.
BuD the boys agree they had their
moneys worth on the trip--even Far
ley who had fine new hat stolen at
the hotel. A hundred and fifty or
more Shriners sat down at the ban
quet. From all accounts, had the

We're They Right

The recent success of the British
over the Mahdists in the Sopdan
demonstrates that even ianaticism
cannot stand against drill and dis
cipline. But in earlier days, it is
easy to understand why the Arabs
swept all before them. Aningeni-
Gus tenet of Mohammed taught his
followers that the hour and min
ute and second of death were fully
ordained. Therefore the believing
soldiers self-regatdless fighting
was for a while invincible.
