President Roosevelt comes down
on Admiral Schley with sicken-
ing thud. 1t hurts only the Pres
ident. He stops all investigation
and in unmistakable language
gives his idea of things, though
not in sight Of the smoke Of battle
a Captains Battle is what the
President denominates it and Of
course it follows that it was a Cap
tains victory, according to such
reasoning. Had we been the
President and had our mind gone
down the scale Of military ranks
we would not have rested with the
Captain. The coalers, engineers
and gunners did effective work and
we would have given them the glo-
ry. Schley was in command that
eventful day, he was conspicuous
and sped the waters, a man Of val
or carrying out the instruction of
President Mckinley to Admiral
Sampson-hnd the Spanish feet
and destroy it. Sampson was off
duty that day but his orders were
left TO the next in command, Ad-
miral Schley, and under him was
the Santiago battle fought and
won. There is glory enough
for all. " 1t WAS not a Captain s
battle. 1t was the United States
fleet against the Spanish feet, led
on that day by Schley OH the one
side and Cervera on the other.
There is no room for unjust criti-
cism. 1t was duty that called
Sampson from the scene OF action
and we accept Schley's reason for
the loop because he is an expe-

pirate way. Their show window
was thronged all day long by the
curious-the display attracting
more attention-a member OF the

Der of old muskets with bayonets

FIGHT IN THE SENATE.
Senators Tillman and McLaurin,
Both of South Carolina, Ex-
change Fist Blows.

In the United States Senate on
Saturday Senator Tillman, of
South Carolina, in the course of a
speech upon the Philippine Tariff
Bill, made serious reflections upon
the honor of his colleague, Mr.. Me-
Laurin. In brief, he charged that
his vote in support of the ratifica-
tion of the treaty of Paris had been
cast through the exercise of inn
proper influences.
Mr.. McLaurin was not in the
chamber at the time, but was sent
for and appeared as Mr.. Tillman
continued his speech.
Mr.. McLaurin rose to address the
Senate. He reviewed Mr.. Till
mans charges. briefly and then de-
nounced the statement made by his
colleague as a willful, malicious
and deliberate lie.
Scarcely had the words fallen
from his lips when Mr.. Tillman
sprang athim. Mr.. McLaurin met
him half way, and in an instant
the two Senators were engaged in
rough-and-tumble fight. Mr..
McLaurin received a heavy blow
on 1.-THE forehead, while Mr.. Till
man got punch on the nose which
brought blood.
The Senate adopted "a resolution
declaring both Tillman and Nc
Laurin in contempt. BY vote
both were Iallowed to make state
ments, in which both apologized
for their actions. But the Senate
took no further action and the res
olution referring the matter to the
Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tons is still in operation, and un-
til the committee is discharged or
the Senate relieves the South Car
olina Senators of the contempt they
must remainT silent in the Senate.
