THOUGHT GENERA ESCAPED
People at Santiago Rejoiced for a
 Whole Day overSIt

BaItlmore American.
 : Cautiously enough. the Spanish military and naval authorities in Santiago believed all during the day of the battle. when Schley destroyed their fleet. that Admiral whole city was given to rejoicing over the victor" until aLort sunset, when the news of the tragedy became known. "he Bureau of Naval Intelligence has recently Ter TeJetro, the second in command of the naval forces in Santiago. He gives the following account of the battle as 1t ap- peared to the officers who were left be-
 'The day was most beautiful and the calm perfect. Therefore the smoke. far from vanishing, rose up in a straight line. When the first moment of excite ment was over we could see perfectly that the smoke from the firing formed four groups. more or less distant rom each form? If the one fIrthest to the west. then no doubt 1t was not surrounded and had the open sea before 1t, and that was a great advantage. If on the contrary, 1t formed the seeond or third, then it was between two fires.
 Later on 1t was noticed that the hr- ing was at greater distance and de- creased in intensity and that the col the west. Had they succeeded in escap- ing and outwitting the hostile fleet? For the present one thing was certain-our of the harhor nor even close to it, and that was of great importance. for the greatest danger was in the channel. Im- agine our joy when the Morro advised US by telephone that our fleet was fighting in wing formation. and that the enemy did not have the range. Evidently the age of miracles was not over. 1 will! not attempt to describe what we telt that day we at Santiago who have the honor oi belonging to the navy.
 q still had my horse at my disposal and as I remembered the anxiety in which I had left Mir. ,Bustamente and his delicate state of health, hastene6 to bring him the good news. which thought would do him great deal of good When arrived he knew it already. as did everyone else in Santiago. It had spread all over the city. found him radiant with satisfaction.
 II may safely say that the 3rd Of July was a day of true rejoicing, for, as will be seen later, when relate the events uf tke day, it was believed that our ships had accomplished their object. although at the cost of the destroYers, the loss of which was already known. And. al- though weSfelt very sad over the victims there must have been, the result on the whole was so brilliant that it surpassed all reasonable expectations
 It was not until 6 o'clock that evening

NEW YORK CENSUS.
The Immense Number of People Who
 Are Foreign-born.

New York Evening Post.
 Despite the fact that there are whole counties in each State where the foreign element is very small. the census reports show that in New York and New Jersey alike a majority of the men who have reached the age Of 21 were either born abroad or are the sons of parents who were not natives, and so in greet pro- portion of cases were brought up under foreign influences. Gn New York males of voting age who were born in other countries constitute about 3S per cent: of all men who have reached the age Of q, and those whose parents were CT for eign birth swell the total of the two classes to above 62 per cent; in New Jersey the corresponding figures are follows that if all such aliens had been natuIalized the two classes together would be d majority of the electorate. In poht of fact, however, less than 5S per cent. of the foreign born males in New York are naturalized, and in New Jersey only about 55 per cent.
 Most people will be agreeably surprised to learn that the ratio of illiteracy among this element Is comparatively small. Of men who were born abroad, but have lived in this country the five years neces- sary for naturalization, and have been made voters, the number who cannot read or write was less than per cent; Tn either New York or New Jersey. Even among those aliens who have only taken out first papers" which may be done. as soon as the newcomer lands in this coun- try. the illterates did not much exceed trast Is very marked with the native whites of North Carolina, State which has almost no foreigners.

SAMPSON WILL ATTEND.
He Will Go Before Court of Inquiry
 as a Witness.
Washington Special to New Orleans
 Times Democrat

Washington Special to New Orleans
 Times-Democrat
 All doubt as to whether Admiral Samp- son will or will not attend the court of inquiry as witness was removed today, when Captain Lemly, the Judge Advo- cate of the court. received a letter from Mrs. Sampson, in which she declared that the Admiral will surely come. Her declaration Is without proViso, and from that it is taken by Captain Lemly that the AdmiraPs physical health is as TO- bust as it ever was
 There Is considerable speculation as to the purpose of Mrs. Sampson in making this declaration. It is too well known that the Admiral is afflicted with a men tai disorder to believe that Mrs Sampson is not fully aware of her husbands con dition. One of the ideas that has en- tered the heads of many officials is that she is anxious to have him get on the stand and undertake to testify for the purpose of convincing even the most skeptical that he should be excused.
 / A special dispatch from Lake Sunapec, where the Admiral Is staying, says that his affliction is aphasia, the most notable symptoms of which is the inability of the patient to find words with which to ex- press his ideas. Those who talked with the Admiral when he broke down in this city last winter, now remember that he sation of any length because of his evil dent inability to find the words he need ed Before the Admiral left the Boston Navy Yard, his weakness in this regard became noticeable in his efforts to pre- pare official documents. The fact that Mrs. Sampson wrote the letter is taken to mean that she has relieved him of all the work of his correspondence.
 The attorneys for Schiey this afternoon lodged a semi-protest with the Navy De- pertinent against the discrimination in behalf of the Judge Advocate of the court of inquiry alleged to have been shown by the Department, in that it has summoned witnesses to Washington de- sired by Captain Lemly, but has not un- dertaken the same service for Admiral

AMERICAN HERALDRY.
A Scheme for Making Silk Purses
 Out of Sow,'s Ears.

Baltimore News:
 The New York Times makes some pointed remarks on the recently announc- ed enterprise of the starting of a college of heraldry in New York. The Times says:
 Is there not a slight error in the state ment that college of heraldry has been established in this city for the purpose of enl1ghtening Americans as to who their ancestors were, and what they did? About the college there seems to be no doubt: we only question the accuracy of the word
 Americans" as applied to the custom CTS whom the college will attract and per facts and fancies in which the profess sfonal genealogist does business. Not all who live in the United States are Ameri- cans-not even all who vote here. The term IS more than geographical and poli- teal; 1t has spiritual significance and IS. as much as anything else. way of for Americans properly so-caled, do not include the wares sold at a college of heraldry. and 1t is the habit of Ameri- cans to judge both themselves and their ancestors without much regard for the bond between. We do not know just what to call those who will patronize the new college of heraldry but we are r1ght name for them.
 The. great majority of American citi- zens have no need of college of her theless, a wide field of possibility for this Kind Of institution. even in a land that belongs to the free and Is the home Of the brave. There are busy times for the genealogists and pedigree searchers, and 1t is only fair that they should share the business with the heraldists. Whether there are any true Americans or not who have a just claim to the Haunting crests of knighthood or the bars and crescents of the old and valiant founders of ancient family trees, there are a great many who have furnished by their caprices in life and the marked incidents of their career ample opportunity for the exploitation of such. It will readily occur to everybody, for instance. that with a college of her aldry rightNin his own town of New York Richard Croker will find the establishing of a coat-of-arms and a family crest most handy and convenient. Whatever the her aldists may be able to read into or out Of his past. his present offers sufficient basis for the use of the tiger rampant. with the people couchant and the field a WlgWam with Wampum belt emDty This is but one of the many instances Of usefulness for the new institution that occur in passing. There are. of course, many more, without going out of New York, where Devery and Murphy and the fine crowd with whom they are asso- ciated richly deserve the emblazonments Of the herald's art. Let the good work go on," as the handbils say, and let us see what comes of it. If there are ways of spiting the proverb, and making silk purse out of sow's ear, why not get the benefit of them?
