have been guilty Of criminal acts, no
one possessing any knowledge Of the
fact or any information tending to
prove the fact, has shown any dispo-
sition to disclose II to the department
or to anybody else. 30 far as the secre-
tary knows The secretary has no
power to compel any such person to
tell what he knowR He "a hopeful |
that grand jury may be directed by

ARGENTINE sCHooLsHIP HERE.
The Presidente Sarmiento Now at Anchor
in North River Off Thirty-fourth-st

The naval schoolship Presidente Sarmiento
came into the harbOr yesterday afternoon. She
saluted the forts at the Narrows, and passed
up the North River to her anchorage, off West
Thirty -fourth-st., near the Tage the French
man-of-war lying at Weehawken. The first
thing Commander Quiroga did after his ship
had swung around with the tide to lower
a launch and send his compliments to the
Frenchman. AS it was nearly o'clock when
the Sarmiento dropped her anchor the officer
of the deck said the consul Of his country prob
ably would not go aboard until this morning.
The Sarmiento left Chesapeake Bay on last
Friday, and had a pleasant voyage from Bal
timore to this port. She will probably remain
in harbor several weeks. This is the second
visit of the Argentine schoolship to this port,
her first having been made in the summer of
1901 when she lay several weeks off West
Niuety-sxth-st. The exact number of her Off
GERS, cadets and crew could not be learned,
but her decks swarmed with sturdy young
fellows in attractive summer uniforms.
