STATEMENT BY HOBsON.
He Denies That He Attempted To Be
little Admiral Dcsycy's Victory.


NEW YORK. Sept 25.-Lieut. Richmond
Pearson Hobson who arrived in this city
last night, declared today that the Van
couver interview, in which he was quoted
as belittling Admiral Dewey's victory, was
distorted. He admitted having said that
Dewey's squadron did not sink the Span
ish warships and he reiterated the state
ment this morning. He said, however,
that the only reason the Spanish vessels
went to the bottom was because Dewey's
Warships made it so hot for them that
the sraniards were forced to open the sea
cocks.
All the sunken vessels. according to
Lieutenant Hobson, were well riddIed with
shells and he thinks that Admiral Dewey
deserves all the honors that he has re-
ceived. He says that he will call on the
Admiral at the first opportunity
Il feel that great injustice has been
done me- he continued. Il never had
the slightest intention of belittIing Admi-
rails Dewey's victory. 1t cannot be befit-
tied, and |, who have been on the ground
and have spent months repairing the
wrecks that Dewey left, can appreciate
more fully than many Americans just
what grand victory it was. l never
knew there was any doubt that the Span
Us sCuttiSd tDSlE own Vessels. But We
all know why they did so. They wouldn' t
have opened the sea-eocks unless they had
to.
THE warships had plenty of holes in
them and gave undOubtabIe evidence OF a
good peppeFing.
AS regards my statement that Admiral
Dewey did not sink the Spanish squadron
anyone who knows anything about modern
warships we'll knows that they cannot be
sunk in a smooth sea by direct fire OF
course am not how speaking of torpe-
does or the explosion Of magazines But
as matter of fact, you may riddle a war
ship and set her on fire. and yet she will
float, because, below her waterIine, she
remains intact.
Admiral SIMPSONS squadron did not
sink Cervera's squadron. We all know
that but no one thinks of discrediting the
victory. IN seaway you might sink a
vessel with big guns for the reason that
you can make An occasional hole below the
waterline when she is rolling. Otherwise
you don't sink her. unless. as l say, you
torpedo her or ignite her magazine"
Few persons recognized Lieutenant Hob

mustacbe and is slightly stouter His
eyes have been affected by his work in
Hongkong, but otherwise he is in excellent

Richard Guenther Consul General of

An article in the "EIektrotechnische

in the use of single lines for telegra phing

scribing the Rysselberghe system CT at

There are fifteen brigade stations IN
Berlin. each OF which IS served by a spc-

stations underground wires radiate IN all
directions. each wire being connected with
great number OF alarm pillars. The
alarms are arranged for automatic work

very great advantage to be able to main

RUSSIA'S LAST FXILES.
End Of the PrGcessions OF Convicts
to Siberia.
(From the London Sphere. }

The weekly train de luxe leaves IrkUtSk
every Friday, arriving at Moscow eight
days later. We were wont TO console our
selves with the belief that, once IrkuIsk
was reached, we should then continue our
journey in the best and most luxurieusIy-
appointed train in the world.
Alas fer human hopes, This much
desired train had gone TO the Paris EX-
hibition and We had to be content with
a scratch train-comfortable withal, but
not what we had been led TO expect
It was at one of the small stations that
I was enabled 10 take some photographs
The train which had brought the c0nyictS
from Russia was going no farther, and
they were waiting with their baggage a.
the side OF the line for the order To mount
the one that was to take them Cl.
My Photographic operations were in no
wise resented, and both the prisoners and
their guards seemed pleased by the notice
they attracted.
All tse prisoners appeared to belong TO
the peasant class; they were still wear
ing their own clothes, but each man had
the half of his head shaved, and wore leg
irons connected by chains to the giFdIe
round his waist
Apart from the others. but equally
closely guarded was weIl-dressed wo-
man of refined carriage and OF an unmis-
takabIy superior class. She was a politi-
cal prisoner, the only one I think, among
that common herd but her lot was the
same as the rest.
What had she done? In what Plot had
her wonans brain been a factor that had
brought her within reach of the law and
made it necessary for the safety of the
Empire that she should be transported?
That we're impossible to conjecture but
the sight of that slight figure, fashion
ably attired, among the otherwise ragged
crew was sufficient TO make the mind
ponder long on thoughts of the nihilism
and secret societies which are forever
mole-like at work beneath the suTface of
the community
This gang of prisoners possessed a pc
culiar interest, inasmuch as it was the
last that was ever to be sent from Rus
sia to Siberia, the Government having
decided to send no more conyict5 into
Siberia, but to keep them III Russian
prisons to serve out their sentences

Lincoln O'Brien, of Philadelphia, had the
honor yesterday of christening the first

A feature OF the launching was the ex-

weapon is in possession of Lawyer Albert

Myra. She is the great-great granddaugh-

was presented after the battle he being
