New York, July 19-Edgar s. Ma
clay today replied to the criticism
that had been made upon his histor-
ical work dealing with Admiral Sch
ley and the navy department during
the Spanish-American war:
81 did not appreciate when writing
the book that the terms were immod-
crate and Incorporate. 1t is only re-
Gently that I have met with adverse
criticism. 1t is now my intention to
revise that portion of the work which
deals with the battle of Santiago.
But I shall not alter facts for they are
correct and I must be first convinced
that they are in error. Regarding the
report that proofs were submitted to
officers who took part in the battlefof
Santiago and Secretary Long and re-
ceived their approval, l should ok
plain that only that portion Of the
book were submitted to officers that
dealt with them particularly. That
part of the proof submitted to Secre-
tary Long dealt with him personally.

Admiral Schley and | wrote rs I did

DEPARTMENTS DECISION.
Obnoxious Language Must BE Ex-
plunged.

Washington, July 1.-THE secre-
tary of the navy has decided that the
third volume of Maclay's history Of
the Spanish-American var shall not
be used as a text book at the navay
academy unless the obnoxious Ian
guage it contains in charactedizing
the action of Rear Admiral Schley
shall be eliminated. The secretary
says that it would be manifestly i'm
proper to have a history containing
such Incorporate language as a text
book for the cadets. He will inform
both Commander Waynright who is
in command Of the naval academy
and Mr.. Maclay, the author Of the his
tory Of his decision. He says he
never saw the account Of the battle
of Santiago and the criticisms Of
Rear Admiral Schley until after the
book was published.

Wellsville, O., July 2O-A non-union
mill worker, claiming to have come
from Pittsburg, but who vas recog-
nized as a V%andergrift man, was
driven from this city tonight by

shall be attempted, bloodshed, 1t, is
believed, will likely result.

CALLS ATTENTION TO ATTACK
ON. ADMIRAL SCHLEY.
MACLAY's HISTORY OF NAVY
Charges Hero OF Santiago with Be
ing a Liar and Coward-Sec-
retary's Action.

Baltimore, July 19-General Felix
Angus, publisher Of the Baltimore
American, has written the following
letter to President Mckinley which
was sent by wire:
''Wm. Mckinley, President, Canton,
O.,-Maclay's history of the navy is
the standard in our naval academy.
In the third volume, just issued, the
historian charges Rear Admiral Sch
ley with being a coward, a liar, a cal
tiff, an incompetent and an insubor-
dinate. In an interview in the Amer
clan, Maclay the historian, who is a
navy department clerk, classed as a
laborer and attached to the Brooklyn
navy yard, says that proofs Of this
third volume, which should have told
the most glorious story in all u
naval annals were submitted to Sec
rotary Long and Admiral Sampson
and approved by them in advance of
publication; also that Long put him
in his present position after he had
read and approved these attacks upon
Admiral Schley. The proofs were also
submitted to Admiral Dewey, who re-
fused to read them.
IF aught were needed to convince
any fair-minded man that a clique
in the navy department had conspir-
ed to traduce the hero of Santiago
and that the conspiracy was carried
into executive while the brave and
gallant officer was suffering expatri-
alton on the fever-infected coasts Of
South America, this should furnish
it. Will you, Mr.. President, in view
of all this, sit quietly by and permit
these conspirators to continue their
diabolical work?
every justice-loving American ap-
peals to you to intervene in the name,
and for the sake of fair play. Next
to being right at all times, which nc
man ever was, the best thing is to
find out as soon as possible that you
are wrong and right yourself imme.

Manufacturers Preserve Silence Con-
corning Outlook.

NJ H.ir SssbS ~NssSS"s -
Pittsburg, July 19-The strike sit
uation tonight is not materially
changed, although many rumor are
in the air to the effect that a settle
ment of the troubles is imminent.
Up to 10 p. m. none of these reports
had been verified, and the conclusion
reached is that, no settlement is in
sight.
At the offices Of the Carnegie COM
pany and at the headquarters of the
manufacturers the usual silence is
preserved concerning the condition
of business or the status Of the strike.
President Shaffer of the Amalga-
mated association, however, ex
presses his entire satisfaction with
the progress of the battle and says
the workers have gained steadily,
while the manufacturers have lost
continually since last Monday. He
says up to the present time the Anal
gamated forces contemplate no
change in their programme, being
perfectly satisfied with the showing
their people have made. President
Shaffer says the advance in wages
offered the Tube mill workers at Nc
Keesport today while seemingly large,
will not bring the pay up to the union
scale.<
Commencing in a day or two, week
ly bulletins will be issued from Anal
gamted headquarters, to give the
workers and strikers official news OF
the exact condition of strike affairs.

striking mill men in that vicinity
spent an uneasy, restless day. There
is no longer any doubt that the own
ers of the Wellsville plant of the
American Sheet Steel company, have
many of the towns largest merchants
back Of them in their fight against
the workmen and much bitterness has
resulted. Confronted with what
seems a certainty that If the present
trouble goes along much further the
Wellsville plant will be lifted and
brought across the line into Pennsyl-
vania, grocers. clothing men and
others, who for years have received
the wages of the mill workers in ex-
change for goods, are now trying to
show the strikers that they are wrong
and foolish in keeping up the fight.
The pressure brought to bear along
this line, the strikers say, is energy
wasted, as they are more determined
tonight than before. They are more
than angry with the merchants.
Wellsville men have been consider
ed excellent workmen and many Of
them have money invested in prop
erty here, therefore, should the mill
be taken to Vandergrift, as is threat
.ened, they would suffer.
They don't believe. the promise
which accompanies the threat, that
the mill from Denison, Ohio, will be
brought to this place in a the pres
ent trouble is settled, is true.
The proposition has been put to
the strikers in a semi-oficial way,
that If the strike shall be settled with,
in a reasonable time, the Dennison
mill will be brought here to increase

the contest shall be long drawn out

we hereby express our loyalty to the

During the years we have worked
for said company we have received
only the fairest treatment at their
hands; our wages have been entirely
satisfactory and we ask that we be
