tive to the criticism of DR.. E. S. Wal

Mr.. Boardmans statement does not
differ materially from that published a
few-days ago in The Times.
Mr.. Boardman tells of an interview
with Dr. WaImer, in which the matter
was talked over. and it was found his
criticism was based upon the fact that
while his son remained several hours IN
the hospital his face was not washed
and the wounds treated only in an in
different manner.
Mr. Boardman says DR.. Walmer was
told by his family physician that the
treatment at the hospital was proper.

Senator German has given reasons for
declining the honor, which he says will
defy contradiction. He declares ne can

made upon the candidate to oppose the
election of MIR Roosevelt. He insists he

District Boys Reform School, adioin-
ing the Eastern Branch.
The act passed by Congress. which

necessary for the right of way. De-
partment of Justice officials have not
indicated what Interpretation the At
torney General will place en- the pro-
vision relating to the Reform School

the land will be asked.
Mr.. Carskadden was unable TO explain
yesterday to the officials of the depart

railway desires TO do on the school
grounds. Until a detailed plan is sub
mitted of the changes the line will make

Senator Martin is quoted as saying it
would be necessary to placate Bryan if
the party hoped to win. By this it was
not meant that it would be necessary to
nominate silver man, but that the
platform must be conservative and avoid
in every sense giving oftense to the lead
ers of the campaigns of 1895 and 1900
Senator German admitted that the tariff
would be the political issue He held
that the Republicans had mapped out the
form of campaign for the Democrats,
and it would be strong card to follow
the program.
In a discussion of candidates Senator
German called attention to the fact that
the sentiment of the country had dub
bed the Wilson German bill as a high
tariff measure The other Democrats
had refrained from bringing up this sub
ject. but il Is said when the issue was
raised by Senator German 1t was dis
cussed with the greatest freedom. The
decision was uEalterably against Mr..
Gormans s candidacy.
Eastern Democrats are now said to be
willing to make concessions to Bryan.
1t is recognized that if the silver wing
should abandon the Democratic ticket
1t would be impossible to win. Old-lne
Democrats are preparing to dominate
the nominating powers of the convention,
but will permit the adoption Of a plat
form which will not antagoniZe Bryan 8

The account says that IL is apparent
an eight-inch shell from the American
feet struck the Christina in the bow,
destroying the engines, and entering the
ships hospital, killing and mangling
many OF the crew. Among the latter
was the executive officer.
The Hull a Sepulchre.
The hull, loaded with barnacles and
seaweed. and the mud washed in during
the five years since Admiral Dewey add

sessions, held the bones of more than
eighty Spaniards, who fell before the
American fire. Whether she was sunk
by the shell in her bow, or scuttled by
her crew, cannot be determined
Admiral Montojo had transferred his
flag to the Isla de Cuba, the Reina Chris
tina was on fire, and Captain Cadalzo
had ordered the crew to leave her. He
was about TO descend from the bridge
when a shell from the Americans tore
him to pieces. The wounded were hasti-
