AL Berry's Poem.

The continued persecution of AID
miral Schley by the Navy Depart
ment gang brings TO memory the fol-
lowing poem quoted by Congress-
man AL Berry on the House floor
when the awards of prize money
were being considered:
When the Spanish fleet with full
Roadway
Dashed out of Santiago bay,
Taking the chances of death and
wreck,
Who stood on Yankee quarterback
And marked the game with eagle
eye
Say, was it Sampson, or was it
Schley?
Who Was it, when shot and scream
ing shell
Turned Sabbeth calm into echoing
hell,
Steamed into the thickest Of the fray,
His good ship leading all the way,
While the roar of his gun shook
earth and sky
Say was it Sampson, or was it
Schiey?
In American hearts, who holds first
place
OF those who claim part in that
glorious race?
Whose name stood out on that proud
day
AS the hero of Santiago bay?
In letters of gold write that name
high
Shall we write it Sampson, or
write it Schley?

Recently there have been several cases
of prominent men suddenly falling in
collapse just after eating hearty meal.
These men have all been under treat

result shows that the treatment they had
received had smothered the symptoms
but had not retarded the progress of the
disease.
There Is a real danger in the use of
palliativss when there is disease Of the

 MT. Bulger of Tallapoesa, moved .ss a substitute that the entire matter be referred back to the Credentials Com mittee with instructions to report back the true facts" in the case.

CUBAN CONVENTION.
sanguilly Defends tine Course of the
 United States.

Havana, May 21.-At today's session of the Cuban Constitutional Conven- ton, Senors Gualberto Gomze and Silva withdrew the minority report of the Committee on Relations and sub mitted for 1t the old majority report of the committee which was drawn up before the comittee went to Washing ton and was signed by Senors Gual- berto Gomez, Silva and Villuendas, but which was never acted upon by the convention, because it was rejection of the Platt amendment. particularly in respect to- the right of intervention and coaling stations.
 This action of Senor Gomez is at. tributed to the bitter attack made upon him yesterday by the radicals for hav- ing accepted portions of. the Platt amendment. Senor Villuendas asked that his name be stricken off the old report thus making it the report of the minority, and declared that he now favored the majority report already before the convention.
