Washington, July 8.--Roar Admi-

bureau of navigation, today issued e
formal statement to tho effect that ho
is the author of the famous dispatch
to Admiral Dewey ordering him to
proceed from Hong Kong to Manila
and there capture or destroy the
Spanish fleet. Admiral Crownin-
shield states that he wrote the dis
patch in the white house and sub
mitted it to both Attorney General
Griggs and the president and that
the only change made in the dispatch
as he wrote it was the additi,n Of
either the word "capture" or the
word "destroy." The dispatch, ac-
cording to Admiral Crowninshield,
WAS then handed to Lieutenant Whit

and after the latter had signed it

perience aboard the south bound fast

Shortly after tho trian left Char

The woman never returned.
Mrs. Harris had boen on visit to
relatives in Rock Hill and was on
her return home in Anderson coun-
ty. She said to News reporter that
after leaving Charlotte about II
o'clock Saturday night she was rather
tired and sleepy and paid little at
tention to who was on the train. She
noticed, however, as she first took
her scat handsome young woman
with a small baby in her arms occu-
pying a scat just in the rear of her.
Before the train had gono worry
far, Mrs. Harris said that this woman
came to her and asked her to watch
her baby for fow minutes until she
returned. This, Mrs. Harris very
kindly consented to do, thinking, Of
course, the woman would return for
| the child in O short time.
The baby was then asleep and was
not noticed until it awoko about a
half hour afterwards and began cry
ing. Mrs. Harris quoted the child
and waited patiently for the return
of the woman who had left the baby
in her charge.
Upon reaching Greenvllle Mrs.
Harris says that the woman had not
yet put in her appearance. She took
the baby in her arms together with a
grip that had boon loft on the scat
and got off the train to spond tho re.
mainder Of the night hore, before
leaving for her homo on the $40 G.
& G.. train. She was met at the de-
pot by her husband who had come
over from Anderson the afternoon
before.
Mr.. Harris notified the policemen
of tho lost baby. IIe said Sunday
morning'just before leaving the city
that he had number Of applicants
for tho child, but that ho didn't care
to give him up.
The little boy WAS about year
old with brown eyes, dimples in his
checks and apparently possessed o
very sweet disposition. The valise
which Mrs. Harris brought from the
train with her was found to contain
a number of fine baby dresses, a
mild bottle and everything necessary
for baby's toilet.
