Ieial scene Is laid; and 1t also depicts the
murder of Russian spy by a British
cabinet Minister In the latter's private or

striking of yacht III the English chan

Hob>on's statement that the three
vessels sunk at Manila and raised for
use by the United States were not sent
20 the bottom by Dewey but by their
own officers has caused n sensation.
Dewey himself admits that the ships
were not much hurt but points with
pride 10 nine or ten others that were.
Hobson's implied reflection on Amer
lean naval gunnery gives offence to the
Admiral but Joseph Stickneys nara
tive OF the Manila fight, an event which
he witnessed from the Olympia's
bridge bears out some OF Hobson's sup
posed criticisms. Three years ago
Lieutenant Commander Swinburne told
the writer that the first battle in which
American warships bore n part would
show the folly OF the Governments re-
fusal TO maintain n special corps OF
qualified gunners at large pay. At Ma
Mia. Mr.. Stickney says. the American
feet withdrew from the fight. not for
breakfast-whoever heard OF stopping
n battle for breakfast?-but because
Dewey wanted a chance to rate his men
for bad Workmanship and TO take ac-
count Of losses. When he found the
spaniards were worse gunners than his
own he sailed In at close quarters and
finished the fight asit was easy to do
with his preponderance OF ships and
gums and with the Dons In a panic.

The appearance Of several thousand

The limited interest shown In Bryan's

The fearful force Of the Gulf hurri-
cane was felt In many places beside
Galveston. Governor Sayers' estimate
Of the loss of life credits the district be-

mortality as that registered within its

This aggregate ls not exceeded by the

world bicycles and parts of bicycles
valued at si.s9SOis. The demand had
increased 80 greatly that In the next
