and law suit is probable.
Coz. Butcher was in Welser hurs-
day but did not give the Signal any
new information But things are
looking little better and active ex-
cavation IS going on for the power
house.
That smooth spiel of Jerry's about
the difference between himself and
the Weiser authorities over the earth
material at the reservoir site is rather
sickly and doesn't have anything to
do with Jerrys exhausting and debil-
itatng inactivity before the forma-
ton al the reservoir site was discov-
cred, and 1t is improbable that Jerry
ever would have discovered it if some
one hadn't told him.
There IS no trouble over that part
| OF the business and 1t doesn't eHecJ
Jeiry's job-if he is still in-in the
least, as the compensation on account
of any, necessary changes made by
the city is amply provided for in the
contract-but it is happy thought
in Jerry to give that to the Herald
for story and reason for soaking
, himself in the waters of Hot Lake.
By the way, when the Herald says
"Jerry is not out in Weiser' it tells
us nothing new, but he ought to be
out here instead of out IN Hot Lake
That's what people here have beer
kicking about-because Jerry was
e s,not out in Weiser" where he ough
to be, but was out in Baker City, o
, some place else and letting the worl
! anguish here.

TERRIBLE DEATH
Fired Her Clothes and Burn
ed Before Mothers Eyes.

Pocatello, May 13-Ella, the little
three -year-old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Freeman Cutler, near Mccain
mon, was so badly burned yesterday
afternoon that she died few hours
afterwards
The mother was working in the
garden adjoining the home and the
little GIRL and four and half-year-
old brother were playing about the
house. Without the knowledge of
the mother the little folks went into
the house and got some matches and
were preparing to make bonfire.
The first that Mrs. Cutler knew OF
this was when the little girl came
running to her with her clothes all
ablaze, having set fire to herself with
the matches. The child was terribly
burned before her mother could teal
her clothes from her suffering LITTLE
body and extinguish the flames.
A messenger with buggy was a
once dispatched to Pocatello for
doctor. The child died about hal
an hour before his arrival
Mrs. Cutters hands and clothing
we're severely burned in extingulsh
ing the flames.

The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1903-02-18

testimony showing that the dispatch
ascribed to Sampson, accusing Schley
of reprehensible conduct, was in fact
dictated by another officer. On the day
when he was to testify it became so
manifest that the court would not re-
ceive any testimony relating to the Of
ficers of the New York that he was not
put on the stand.
When at the court of inquiry counsel
attempted to put in evidence Admiral
SIMPSONS famous magazine article, in
which Commodore Schley was accused
Of withdrawing his squadron twenty
five miles from the harbor every night,
objection was made by the navy de-
partment's counsel. One of the latter,
Mr.. Hanna, remarked significantly that
the mere fact that Admiral SIMPSONS
name was signed to the article did not
to the navy department during the
blockade and signed by Admiral Samp-
son alleged that Captain Sigsbee was
the authority for this statement. Cap
tain Sigsbee swore on the stand that
he never told Sampson or any one else
this and that it was not true. After
Captain Sigsbee had made this state
ment there was much harsh criticism
of Sampson, which, it is now said, was
probably unjust.
Captain Chadwick is the officer who
declared he would never take Admiral
Schley by the hand and who was repri-
handed by the navy department for
attacking that officer in an interview.
1t was he who figured most prominent
ly in the interviews between Admiral
Sampson and General Shafter when
Shafter tried to get the squadron to go
into the harbor and attack the Span
iards, and it was he who drafted the
letter calling upon General Toral to
surrender
There is much speculation today
about the reason for the appointment
of Admiral Sampson, who was then a
captain, in view of the fact that 1t was
known that he was victim of apha-
STA. There were many officers who
were DESTROYS to command the squad
roE, but it would have had to go to
either Sampson or Schley.
