Neither In Actual Command.

Therefore the credit to which each
of the two is entitled rests ON mat
ters apart from the claim of nominal
command over the squadron; for So
far as the actual fight was concerned
neither one nor the other in fact ex-
ercised any command. Sampson was
hardly more than technically in the
fight. His real claim for credit rests
upon his work as commander-in-
chief; upon the excellence of the
blockade; upon the preparedness of
the squadron; upon the arrangement
Of the ships head-on in a semicircle
around the harbor; and the standing
orders in accordance with which they
instantly moved to the attack of the
Spaniards when the latter appeared
For all these things the credit is his.
Admiral Schley is rightly entitled
AS is Captain Cookie the credit
of what the Brooklyn did in the fight.
On the whole she did well, but l agree
with the unanimous finding of the
three admirals who composed the
court of inquiry as to the loop" 1t
seriously marred the Brooklyn's 9TH
erwise excellent record, being in fact
the one grave mistake made by any
American ship that day. Had the
Brooklyn turned to the westward,
that is, in the same direction that the
Spanish ships were going, instead OF
in the contrary direction, she would
undoubtedly have been in more dan
gerous proximity" to them But it
would have been more dangerous for
them as well as for her. This kind
of danger must not be too nicely
weighed by those whose trade it is

Of them, without suffering much dam
age. The two torpedo boats, which
had followed them out Of the harbor,
were now destroyed by the fire of the
rearmost of the American big vessels

straight in for them, paying no more
heed to their quick-fre guns than to
the heavy artillery Of the forts, to

Indiana Gradually Dropped Behind.
In the running fight which follow
ed, until the Teresa, Oquendo AMI
Viscaya were destroyed, the Indiana
gradually dropped behind. although
she continued to fire until the last OF
the three vessels went ashore. The
Brooklyn was ahead of any Of the
other American vessels ON course
outside theirs; she was nearly broad
side on to the Spaniards. The Ore
gon, Iowa and Texas were all close
together and actively engaged
throughout this running fight. The
Brooklyn and Oregon, followed at
some distance by the Texas, then con-
tinued in chase Of the Colon, which
went nearly 30 miles farther before
she also went ashore. During this
chase of the Colon there was practi.
cally no fighting.

BEEF TRUST CASE AGAIN
RESUMPTION OF ARGUMENT BEFORE
FEDERAL JUDGE GROsSCUP.
John s. Miller's Contention I'm Behalf
ney Bethea's Reply.

CHICAGO, Dec. 16.-The noted beef
trust" case was again revived to-day in
arguments before Judge P. S. Grosscup
in the United States Circuit Court. In the
demurrer, which was filed in August the
packers assert that the bill for an injunc-
ton is 'multifarious." and does not refer
to any offense with sufficient particularly
to constitute violation of the United
States statutes.
Attorney John S. Miller representing the
packers, declared that the bill does not
allege any restraint of interstate or foreign
commerce, and that the shipment of COM
modities by the packers to their agents
in another State does not constitute inter-
state commerce. The acts of the packers,
he said, were in furtherance of trade rather
than in restraint. Taking up the charge
of the existence of an agreement not to bid
against one another at the stockyards, Mr.
Miller held that such traffic in live stock
was not interstate trade, as the cattle were
not in course of transportation between
States.
Attorney Bethea made an argument to
show the falsty of the contention that
when goods are sent from one State to an
other State for sale in the latter place, this
act Is not i'm the nature of interstate COM
merce He declared that the sale by one
of the packers New York agent of meats
shipped from Chicago was part of one
transaction and that ii is controlled by
the laws of interstate commerce. This
falls under the old principle he said that
the conduct of the agent is the conduct
of the principal" He insisted that COM
merce involves the idea of carrying a COM
modify TO another place for sale there, and
that this includes not only traffic, but every
species of commercial intercourse between
the States THE interstate-commerce law
applies" he said, until the goods are
actually sold"
Shortly before adjournment Special Coun-
sci Day was asked by Judge Grosscup to
argue on the question of the right
of the government TO demand the
production of the packers books
and papers Judge Grosscup then ad-
journed court after telling counsel for both
sides to submit briefs within two weeks
He said he would have no time to consider
the case until after the holidays.

is 1t fact that the board is taking up
this question earlier than usual and that
in the ordinary course of events the matter
would not be disposed of until next April?"
mo-" replied DR.. Bryan. cit is my un-
derstanding that the meeting this month
is the one at which the question should be
settled. do not believe that any unusual
or uncalled for haste is being shown in
this matter. although / know that the
board and State Superintendent Jones are
being severely criticised, and, by innuendo,
at least, accused of jobbery.
However. the board and the state super
lntendent are In trying position in this
case. No matter what action they take
they will meet with criticism and accusa-
tions from one quarter or another. The
textbook question is such a perplexing
one, and SO many different interests are at
stake that everybody cannot be satisfied.
1t is impossible to get textbooks that will
please every one. A book that is suitable
for the schools of the larger cities of the
State will not prove entirely satisfactory in
the country schools, where the terms are
of five to seven months. There are
many honest differences of opinion in re-
gard to the books. text that is entirely
satisfactory to one prominent educator will
be violently assaiied by another man equal
ly prominent and equally capable. Teach
ers have strong convictions on such sub
jects and they express them freely.
"The financial interests In the question
are considerable. as so many publishing
houses are concerned, and all manner of
pressure is brought to bear on the board
AS a result, no matter how disnterestedly
the board considers the matter, the cry of
jobbery is raised the moment the decision
is announced.
For my part, I satisfied that the
board will decide the textbook question i'm
a manner that the best interests of the
schools of Indiana will be conserved. The
members of the board are working for the
schools-not for the schoolbook publishing
houses.

Durham. South Africa, yesterday, when, on
inspection of the crew, three were found

patients convinced Health officer Doty that
they had all the symptoms OF the plague,

the examination made known tonight con-

One patient is convalescent, but the other
two still under treatment. All three
men slept together in a small compart-

thirty-one. There are five passengers on
board, woman and four children.
The steamer will be sent to sea to dis
charge the water and sand ballast taken

crew will be transferred TO Hoffman island.
