The Prosecution Grows Amusing.

Captain Lemly, of counsel for Crown
inshield, Sampson, ell al, began his
cross-examfnation of Admiral Schley
yesterday, in what he evidently took to
be a solemn and effective manner. 1t
proved to be not exactly either. 1t was
plain at the start that the judge advo-
cate felt not only Iae dignity and inn
portance of the occasion. but that, at
last, he had his intended victim in q
cavity deep and dark.
After a few unimportant observa-
tions, Captain Lenly signaled himself
to fire h;s thirteen-inch gun, and it
tried to go off accordingly. The breech
blew out at once, but the intention was
the same He demanded to know of
Admiral Schley whether that officer
had prepared and transmitted a plan
of the battle off Santiago to the COM
manding officers of the fleet The OBJ
vious answer was that there was hard
" time for friendly correspondence
when the Spanish noses were seen pok-
ing out of the harbor, and on all the
ships Jac6y and Johnny were getting
their guns. Then. with fine irony, fresh
from the Crowninshield shop, Lemly
asked the admiral why he had not in
stru.ted the captains before that time?
There was suca an easy answer to
this aberrated question that one is In
clined TO wonder that even Lemly
should ask it. 1t was given, however:
Up to half-past nine o'clock of the
morning of July 3, 1898, Commodore
Schley was not in command of the feet
since Admiral Sampson was present
and in command Consequently Com
modore Schley had no business to issue
orders or instructions until Admiral
Sampson turned over the command to
him and left the fleet, about an hour or
so before the action began. Once in
command. Commodore Schley issued or
ders fast enough, and they were obeyed,
and the fleet under his command, not
Sampson's. fought and won the glorious
naval victory of Santiago.
The prosecution has been vicious and
aboninable all along For some days it
has been growing ridiculous. Yester-
day Lemly seemed to cap the climax

A slight agitation has thrown the
French Nationalists in a state of furore.
The Government decided to recognize the
services rendered by General Florentin.
former Military Governor of Paris. now
on the retired list, and promoted him to
the Grand Chancellor of the Legion of
Honor ir place of General Davout, Duke
of Aeursteadt In consequence of the lat
ter's displacement, three generals and an
admiral have handed in their resigna-
tions as a protest against the Govern
ment. General Florentin is the general
who led the division back from the fu-
neral of President Felix Faure to the bar
racks and who was accosted in the Rue
de Ruilly by Paul Deroulede at the head
of the League of Patriots, who tried to
persuade him to march his division to the
Elysee Palace and overthrow the republic
General Florentin, however. resisted the
temptation, and instead of marching on
the Elysee, placed Deroulede and his ac-
completes under ares and notified the
Government of the occurrence 1t is for
this service that the Government is now

An exchange says: A merchant
who had two stores in small villages
tried an experiment. He put a bar
gain counter in each store, containing
the same articles at exactly the same
price. In the newspaper in one vii
lage he advertised his special counter.
In the paper of the other town he did
not advertise and sold 1898 worth of
goods. In the store where he did ad-
vertise he sold goods amounting to
1928. In commenting on the result
Of his experiment the merchant says:

colonization and settlement of that
part of the state. THE: country west

greatly favor the stock industry. There
are hundreds Of men whQ will imme-

small scale. The fact that the
Northern Pacific is disposing of all of
it's west Missouri lands will naturally
tend to make better values in that part
of the state. The day Of the free

A MERRY CHRISTMAS

REPORTS FROM ALL PARTS OF
THE CITY SHOW THAT THE EN-
JOYMENT OF THE HOLIDAY WAS
THOROUGH AND GENERALLY
PARTICIPATED IN.
Christmas day was appropriately
celebrated in the capital city. The
weather was ideal for the holiday, be-
ing warm, with just a suspicion of win
ter,s freshness in the atmosphere. The
day was celebrated throughout the city
with the usual ceremonies. The sew
;eral churches held Christmas tree GEL
e%brations on Christmas eve. At the
Methodist church the pupils of the
Sunday school presented a pretty little
cantata, and the usual presents were
distributed. At the Presbyterian
church there was a suitable programme
of exercises, a tree handsomely deco
rated and a real Santa Claus who dis
tributed gifts much to the amusement
of the little FOLKS. The Catholic
church observed the day with complete
and appropriate church ceremonies.
Knights Templar of the city united
yesterday morning at II o'clock in
toasting the health of the grand mas
ter. All of the local knights and a
large number of the visiting brethren
attended and the occasion was properly
celebrated. There was a feast of rea-
son and flow of soul and the occasion
was thoroughly enjoyed by all who at
tended.
In the various homes about the city
the day was celebrated with the usual
home festivities. Christmas dinners
were the order of the day and there
was a large number of private enter
tainment Of Christmas guests.
Incoming trains for the past few
days have brought home many absent
relatives who partook of the Christmas
festivities at their homes. A number
of residents of the city also spent
Christmas with relatives in other
places.
The festivities at the Catholic
church were grand, the ceremonies ele-
waiting, the. decorations artistic, the
music rendered by the choir and school
children we'll executed and pleasing.
The Christmas tree was loaded with
good and handy things for the children
of the Sisters school. The collection
at the service was very good. Father
Clemens desires to extend gratitude to
the kind donors.
The Christmas exercises at the Pres
byterian church given by the Sunday
school were more elaborate than usual.
The program rendered gave evidence OF
careful training by those in charge.
The singing Of the choruses was espe-
cially fine. The tree was very hand
somely decorated and lighted by cleo
tricity. Just at the close of the pro-
gram Santa Claus and his son arrived
in a sleigh drawn by a reindeer and
bestowed the presents amid great en-
thusiasm- The scene was enjoyed by

ARE NOT IN HARMONY
M'KINLEY ARCH ASSOCIATION rs
ASKED TO WITHHOLD APPEAL.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1a.-The William
Mckinley National Memorial Arch asso-
ciation having received from the associa-
ton for the erection of a Mckinley
monument at Canton, Ohio, request
that it suspend its appeal to the public
for contributions until the fund deemed
necessary for the erection and main
tenance of the Canton monument was Sc
cured, has, determined that it would be
impracticable to do so because the long
indefinite delay involved would mean the
defeat of its purpose.
1t is stated, however that in its desire
to work in harmony with the associa-
ton for the erection of the monument, be-
lieving that both memorials should be
and could be erected by popular subscrip-
ton, it has through it's executive COM
mittee telegraphed to President Hay and
Vice President Hanna asking them to lay
before the executive committee of the
Canton Monument association at Its
meeting in Cleveland on Thursday a
proposition for joint action by the two
commissions in the collection Of funds
and for their distribution on an agreed
basis. The details of the proposition
have been mailed in a letter written on
behalf Of the executive committee by
Secretary Gage, treasurer of the William
Mckinley National Memorial Arch asso-
ciation. Prompt action is asked by the
latter association in order that the ma
tional movement for a national Mckinley
memorial at the national capital may not
be endangered by delay.
