When the cruiser Charleston was
wrecked two months ago ON an unchart-
cd reef north Of Luzon the ships pay
master. was compelled to abandon his
money safe. which contained about TWEEN.
~ thousand Mexican dollars and $500 In
gold. The weight of this amount Of spc-
Gle and the strong box was too great to
imperil the lives Of the men set adrift In
the open boats. with no certainty Of be-
ing able to keep aHOat until land could
be reached. II was necessary to utilize
all the spare capacity of the boats for
food and for arms and ammunition, for
fear a landing would have to be made on
a barren shore or that sympathizers OF
Aguinaldo would offer u reception at
which guns and cartridges would be
worth more than Mexican money. The
money left behind had been charged
against Paymastcr Reynolds of the
Charleston, TO the amount of $12.!4O. and
when he reached Manila his accounts
were found to be short that much. Tn
der the regulations Admiral Watson or.
dered a board to investigate this failure
to balance accounts. The report fully
cxoncrates the paymaster from any ac-
tual wickedncss or criminal intent In the
transaction.
