These exchanges although made nor
Gl!nhlly by the minister of finance and
Secretary Gage. have gone through the
medium OF the Russian foreign office

The proposition Of the Russian min
S;er of finance was the direct result
ii Secretary Hays note of about two
weeks ago. In that note Mr. HAY
pointed out that the action taken as
to petroleum was not new. nor was it
meant to have any connection with
the previous action Of the government
on sugar. This appears to have recon
cled the Russian officers
VI. DcWitte's response is not long
but il IS quite to the point. 1t makes
no further issue as to the petroleum
order The chief attention is given to
sugar and the specific offer is made
to vacate Immediately the increased
duties which Russia has levied if the
United States will vacate its action on

AFTER THE GLORY.
CrowinshieId Says He Wrote
the Dewey Dispatch.
Sec. Long Says it Was Written by
Naval Department Clerk
And Taken by Him 10 President. Now, who
Did Write Il?

Washington. July S.-Rcar Admiral
A. $. Crowninshield. chief Of the bureau
of naviga ton. today, issued forHai
statement to the effect that he Is the
author of the famous dispatch TO Al
mirai Dewey ordering him to proceed
from Hong Kong to Manila and there
capture or destroy the Spanish feet.
Admiral Crowninshicld states that ne
wrote the dispatch in the White House
ana submitted IL to both Attorney
General Griggs and The President ana
that the only change made in the as
patch us he wrote it was the addition
Of either the word capture" or the
word destroy
The dispatch according to Admiral
C'rowninshield then was handed -
Lieut. Whttleslcy. who took ii to Sec
rotary Long and after the latter mad
signed II sent ii to Admiral Dewey. In
conclusion Admiral crOwninshicld says
that whatever credit come from haV-
ing given the order belongs To the
President and Secretary Long.
Secretary Long said upon this sub
ject:
My recollection is entirely distinct.
Immediately upon declaration OF war
had conferred with the President about
an order to Admiral Dewey to attack
the Spanish fleet at Manila.
"On Saturday morning. April "A. /

President on a sofa In the currinor ana
earnestly advised the sending OF such
an order.

tatingly that had with me the dis
patch which had been prepared IN his
bureau Of navigation and that. the
President approving. returned 70 ne

President after his interview with me
sent FOR some ~ the cabinet ana Al
miral Crovuinshield and took up the
dispatch which. according 70 my
recollection had already been prepared,
ana gave it final consideration.
probably also there had then come

ence of the North Atlantic squadron in
Nantucket waters has attracted scores
of visitors, many of whom have come

completely shut out from one another
by the fog.

ship, the battleship Kearsargc, was in
excellent humor, today. and expressed
himself as highly pleased with the To-
cation of the squadron.

212 O'Clock yesterday afternoon. At
sunset the marines were landed with
their heavy guns and by working hard
all night were able to salute the fleet
lying at anchor at daylight. this morn
ing. The admiral. in speaking of the
landing of his men and breastworks
being thrown up, said it surpasses
anything on record for speed and
thoroughness. and he is pleased with
his tented city.

questioned regarding n sham battle as
a special feature Of the maneuvres and
said there would not be one. He said
the men are here only for the purpose
gun mounting.
The Squadron's stay will probebly
last about 10 days. Tenders have been
sent for coal and the visit of the bat
