tated. Shortly after coming to Boone
the last time, and while at the Rose resi-

Ruling Against Socialist Paper.

New York, Oct. 9.-The challenge, a
paper devoted to socialism and said to
have the largest circulation of any of its
kind in the United States, has been re-
fused admission to the mails as second
class matter This means that the ed
itor will hereafter have to pay / cent
a copy in postage instead Of cent a
pound, and that whereas this item
formerly cost but $50 week it would now
cost $500 weekly.
H. Gaylord Wilshire,the editor, as
serts that this Is nothing les than sup
preston of his paper, and says it is the
first case of free press being stitled
in this country. He is an ardent So
cialist, and says he will take an ap-.
peal from the decision, and if that fails
he will get his paper to his subscrib
ers even If he has to employ the express
to do it. He asserts, more
over, that his paper was not refused
mail privileges on any rharge that its
teachings are socialistic or Its utter
ances in any way infiammatory, but
upon what he describes as q specious
plea on the part of Third Assistant
Postmaster General Madden, who made
the ruling that it advertises too many
ideas-&Wilshi ideas-contains too
many clippings, too little general infor-
nation and too many personal letters.

TILLEY in DISGRACE.
Nava, Commander at the Tutuila sta
tion, samar Islands, Charged With
Serious Offenses.

Washington, Oct. 9-Reports have
reached the navy department from Tu-
tuila, Samoa. complaining of the con-
duct OF Captain Tilley, commandant Of
that station. It is alleged that on more
than one occasion the commandant was
seen under the influence Of liquor and
his conduct was unbecoming an officer.
Acting Secretary Hackett has directed
the commander-in-chief of the Pacific
squadron to proceed to Samoa and as
certain the truth regarding the charges,
snd il necessary hold a court martial for
the trial Of Tilley. The department has
detached Tilley from the command OF
the Abarenda and of the station and or
oered him to proceed by the next steam
er from San Francisco to Tutuila. The
charges were received at the department
with surprise, since the record Of Tilley
hitherto was unblemished.

Editor of the Lancet Asserts Il Is
Cause Of Drunkeness.
London, Oct 9.-"Are southern nations
less addicted to alcoholism than north
ern?" This question gave rise to an ex-
citing and acrid debate at a meeting Of
the Society for the Study of Inebrlely
last night. DIR. Reid, OF the editorial
staff of the Lancet, started the debate
thus:
"Teetotalers make. more drunkards to
redeem. Wherever they succeed in se-
curing coercive legislation against alco-
hol, they swell the tide of tnebriety,
Among the southern nations OF the
world, where alcohol is found as one of
the everyday beverages of the people,
excessive drinking and consequent
drunkenness are reduced to a minimum.
London, Chicago and New York, which
ere without prohibition, have respect1
lively only seven, thirteen and twenty
three drunkards per 1000, while Port.
land, Me-, the classic prohibition state,
has forty-two.
II would advise temperance enthusi-
asts to cease their work and let natural
law solve the question of. alcoholism.
Then eventually we will see drunkards
eliminated and the human family made
immune from the disease of drunken
ness
After an eager and confused struggle
for the floor, Secretary Charles Smith,
of the Kent County Temperance Feder-
alton, obtained recognition. He said:
DIR. Reid's statements are preposter-
Gus. Carefully prepared statistics just
published by the board of trade show
that southern nations drink So per cent
more than northern peoples. High au-
thorities assure US that southern Eu-
rope swinas in wine, and hence heads
toward social decomposition and politi-
cal impotence. England has free access
to alcohol and yet it is becoming a land
of topers.
..Dr. Reid's American statistics are
not worth the paper on which they are
written. He says that Portland, Me-,
has forty-two drunkards per 1000,
whereas London has only seven per
1000. Is the man ignorant or would he
deceive US? In Portland every drunken
man is arrested. Hence these figures.
statistics of the city OF London and its
own magistrates agree that not one
drunkard in ten is ever arrested"
The debate continued two hours with
extreme warmth and pungency, the
physicians present pretty generally SUPP
porting DR.. Reid and the laymen stand
ing with Mr.. Smith. The meeting final
'ly adjourned with the understanding
that series of debates would be ar
ranged in order that the dispute might
he fought to finish. DIR. Reid promises
to make the board OF trade statistics
ridiculous.

to introduce was an Invitation from the

while the response was q declination to
do SO. The admiral's invitation was
wigwagged by Capt. Chadwick as fol-
lows: "The admiral Wishes to know II
you will Join him this morning in going
to see Shafter?" To this Taylor replied:
THE work aboard ship previous to go
ing on prevents me from going with YOU
today" Taylor said on the morning OF
the battle the Indiana had signalled:
Enemy escaping The Indiana was
at that time always cleared for action.
He had, personally. seer the Brooklyn
while on her southern detour commonly
known as the loop" Witness recount-
ed signals made by the Indiana during
the battle. He also had seen signals
from other ships during the battle, but
he did not recall what they We're. The
court asked only one question, as fol-
lows:
WAS the Indiana in such position
with reference to the Brooklyn and en-
emy,s ships, Just after they cleared the
entrance of the harbor, that you could
form fairly correct estimate of the
distance between them?"
The reply was:
''At the time mentioned, there were
but two occasions when the smoke per-
mitted me to see the Brooklyn distinct
~. I could not therefore say what was
the distance between the enemy and the
Brooklyn just after the Spanish feet
came out of the harbor.''
Taylor was then excused.
Lieut.. Commander Teinplin NJ. Potts,
navigator of the Massachusetts,. was
