sential to get around quickly, az the
leading Spanish ship was then standing
TO the westward, and II the Brooklyn
did not stop her she had good chance
OF escaping. So the helm was put hard

II said I would run up on top OF the

THE Brooklyn swung clear of the
Texas and brought around with the
helm hard aport until she brought in
sight the leading Spanish vessel, which
was the Vizcaya, the Teresa having
fallen off and gone ashore, seeking a
berth.
CAS- soon as we were around at the
proper position the helm was eased so
that we paralleled the course Of the
Nizcaya, which at that time was
about 2,40O or $500 wards on our star
board beam. The Colon was probably
on the beam or little forward OF the

NAVIGATOR HEARD.

He said he had been the navigator of
Commodore Schley's flagship, the
Brooklyn, during the war with Spain,
and was on the bridge on the day OF
the battle OF July 3. Detailing the
particulars Of the engagement. he said:

DEAR scHLEY" LETTER.

Cross-examined on the dispatches
carried by the Iowa, Capt. Rodgers
was asked II the Dear Schley' letter
dated at Key West, May 20, 1885, writ
ten by Admiral Sampson, in which the
statement was made, II am of the
opinion that our best chance Of success
In capturing the enemy's ships will be
TO hold Clenfuegos and Havana" was
included in these dispatches. The Wit
ness replied that he had no knowledge
what the envelope contained.
While the examination on this point
was In progress, Mr.. Raynor read the
letter, including the following extract:
IF later It should develop that these
vessels are at Santiago, we could then
assemble off that port the ships best
suited for the purpose and completely
blockade II. Until we receive more posi-
tive information we shall continue to
hold Havana and Santiago"

CAPT, LEMLY's VIEW.

"The word was originally Santiago
as It is printed In the Senate docu-
ment. The difference appears TO be
a matter OF punctuation, and In the
letter as II appears copied In Admiral
SIMPSONS copy book, II reads until
we then receive more positive infor-
nation, we shall continue to hold Ha-
vana and Santiago
printed refers back to other matters
THE word then In the letter as
relating to Santiago, and the punctua-
ton would appear TO give II the mean
ing Of. therefore, until we therefore
receive which Is not intended, but II
means really until we then after the
arrival OF Cervera at Santiago, receive
further information etc. The original,
however will still be forthcoming
This" said he, II want to call TO
the attention OF the e-advocate."
Mr.. Raynor continued: 81 cannot take
that word Santiago to mean anything
else but 'Cienfuegos.' II cannot posi-
by mean anything else. 1t is an i'm
putation upon Commodore Schley, and
cannot permit that imputation TO rest
without summoning the author OF that
request"
WELL, SUMMON SAMPSON"
Judge Advocate have told you once
before you can summon any one you
please.
Mr.. Raynor-Well then. summon Ad-
miral Sampson.
With this remark the colloquy in re-
gard to Admiral SIMPSONS dispatch
closed for the time. and Commander
Hodgson took the oath.

Mr.. Raynor remarked that he sup

HOME LIFE IN WHITE HOUSE.

The expiration of the period of
mourning for the late president, the
return to Washington of many prom
inent members of official and resident

GUS embassies and legations have

world and created interest in the
affairs of the coming season, which,,
from present indications, will be the
most brilliant in years.

A Formidable Meal.

Sometimes the names given to diff
ferent varieties of plants and vegeta-
bles are confusing, not to say startling
It sounds as il one had indulged in a
most aesthetic meal to say, Il have just
eaten an early rose" But when one
remembers that Early Rose is the name
OF a popular variety of potato the ses-
theticism vanishes. Potatoes seem to
be especially liable to have names be-
slowed on them which have a most
''unedible' sound.
Two women out on bicycle tour be
came hungry, and there was no inn in
sight, but there was farmhouse near
by, and an old man was pottering about
in the adjacent potato patch. To him
they appealed for food. He promised
10 do what he could. saying that, at
any rate. he could assure them of good
potatoes, as he had every variety in his
garden. The women enjoyed the meal
and especially commended the pota-
toes.
Yes said the farmer. "you have
not done so badly. You have eaten two

TIE BALANCE OF TRADE.

The foreign trade of this country
continues reasonably satisfactory. al
though some falling off of exports is
indicated.
Septem Der exports show an excess
over imports amounting to $50, 594,-
600. as against $50 333. 900 the same
month last year. 1t is worth noting
that several times during the past 12
months our exports have not only
fallen below last year, but that our
imports are steadily increasing as a
result of the difference in trade con-
ditions here and abroad. The de-
creases in exports have been chiefly
in cotton. copper, breadstuffs and
steel manufactures, the outward
movement of which could be readily
increased by lower prices, provided
Europe's buying capacity was not
further impaired. In these days of
close international comm cree the diff
ferenees in prosperity and adversely
can not long endure; they must in
time approach a closer level, and as
this comes about we may look for a
reduction of the excessive trade bal
ance, which has been such a feature
in our foreign commerce during the
last three years.
