War Vessels Sunk in Battle.

WASHINGTON, Jan. l5.-Attorney
General Griggs has fled an answer
in the Supreme Court of the District
Of Columbia in the.proceedings for
prize money for captures at Manila
Bay by Admiral Dewey. The Attor-
ney General asks that the cause be
referred to commissioner and that
Admiral Dewey, his officers and crew
and also the United States may have
leave to take testimony. The Attor-
ney General comedies that state OF
war existed, but denies that the
squadron under Dewey's command
captured the Spanish cruisers Isla
de Cuba, Isla de Luzon and Don
Juan de Austria. These vessels, he
says, we're sunk during the engage
ment. He asks for fuller informa-
tion in regard to the other points
and says that although capture OF
property were made. such. capture
does not authorize its condemnation
as prize to Dewey and his men.
The Attorney General has filed a
similar answer in the case of Admiral
Sampson and the destruction of Ger
vera's fleet.

A Brave Boy.

Manley Lawton, the twelve-year-

is serving as captain under Gene
raj Grant in the PHILIPPINES. Young
Lawton received his first appoint
ment last July when he was made
an honorary" lieutenant and given
a uniform of that rank. Young
Lawton has been under fire with his
father in the expeditions which
General Lawton commanded against
the Tagalos rebels. In the battle of
Gapote river, which General Lawton
himself said was the hottest fire he
had ever been under, his little son
was by his side, and preserved the
same GOODNESS as his father. A bull
let struck the sand squarely between
his feet and threw up the dust. Cap
tain Manley looked down and ex-
claimed with a twinkle in his eye:

read the kilograms, some Of which

That there has been a most as
founding mis- management of the
British army is very evident. And
that the British War Office has un-
derestimated the equipment-not
the fighting quality-of the Boers
has been proved; but that does not
settle the eventual results of the
war a moment. The British will
march across "kopjes" or whatever
the ridges and mountain passes are
called until the Union Jack flies
over Pretoria, even if million good
Britishers have laid down their
lives accomplishing their object.
The INDEPENDENT naturally SYM
pathizes with the Beers who are
fighting for their country and their
independence. but we realize the
disaster to the world, to civilization
and progress if the great empire of
Great Britain should go down in a
fight against an insignificant repub-
lie controlled by men who cannot,
by tradition, and will not through
inherited mulishness bow down to
the ever advancing wheels OF the
chariot of civilization.
