A Secret of the Spanish War

0NE of the most remarkable incidents of
~ the war with SPAIN never yet spoken OF
in print, occurred at the outbreak of that trou-
BILE, when a couple of clever American naval
officers were despatched in hurry to England.
to pick up at the shipyards any purchasable
war vessels, available for service, which might
be building there for other Powers The only
important ship secured in this way was a
cruiser, just completed for South American
Republic. She was Immediately bought, at
the sellers own price, and named the New
Orleans.
1t was not until the New Orleans reached
this country that the distressing discovery was
made that we had not in our possession any
ammunition which she could use. Her guns
were of calibers for which we had no projectiles,
and required smokeless powder, of which we
had not an ounce. To manufacture the requi-
site shells, and to establish a smokeless powder
plant in time to be of service in the war already
declared, was out of the question.
The only possible solution of the problem
lay in some such daring and original expedient
as was finally adopted. A fast merchant steam
ship was hastily loaded in England with cargo
of smokeless powder and shells for the New
Orleans, and departed secretly (the British
authorities closing their eyes discreetly) for
the United States On arriving within thirty
miles of Sandy Hook. her officers and crew
were seized in some unaccountable way with
panic. and deserted the vessel, making their
way to land in boats.
1t happened, by another strange accident,
that one of our revenue cutters, cruising in the
neighborhood, came upon the steamship. and.
finding her deserted. took possession of her as
derelict. She was lowed into New York, and
her cargo of ammunition was formally con-
demned. A few days later, oddly enough, the
cruiser New Orleans found herself fully pro-
vided with projectiles and gunpowder of the
kind she needed in her business.
1t was thus that the New Orleans was en-
abled to take an active and conspicuous part in
the subsequent maritime campaign off San
tiago. She was the only one of our warships,
it will be remembered, that used smokeless
powder: on which account the accuracy of her
gun practice excited special attention.

THE WHEEL O. FORTUNE

Jack ROBINSON"
Dick had no intention of saying Jack Rob-
nson'; but he moderated his pace, and helped
Tagg over the ground by grasping his arm
They soon that two men had pulled the
driver off the box. and were holding him
down: indeed, tying him hand and foot. Roy
son prevented the success of this operation by
running kick and an upper cut which placed
two Marseillais out of action. Then he essayed
to plunge into a fearsome struggle that was
going on inside the carriage Frantic oaths in
German and Italian lent peculiar significance
to a hourishing of naked knives. But that
which stirred the blood in his veins was his
recognition of Baron Won Kerber's high pitched
voice, alternately cursing and pleading for
life to aSsailantS who evidently meant to show
scant mercy. One man who out of the tail
of his eye had witnessed Dicks discontinue
of the coachman's captors, drew a revolver,
weapon not meant for show, as its six loaded
chambers proved when Dick picked it up sub
sequently.
Royson had no love of unnecessary risk
STOPPING quickly. he grasped the hub of the
of front wheel and, Just varying the trick
which saved Miss Fenshawe in Buckingham
Palace Road. threw the small vehicle over
its side. No doubt the patient animal in the
shafts wondered what was happening; but the
five struggling men in the interior were even
more surprised when they pitched violently
into the road.
Royson sprang into the midst of them.
IOunQ Won herDef. ana SAID, Oh re all
right now. Baron. We whip the heads
off these rascals.
The sound of his English tongue seemed to
take all the fight out of the remaining warriors.
Tagg had closed valiantly with one, and the
others made off Won Kerber rose to his feet
SO Royson went to Tagg's assistance. He
heard the Baron shrek in falsetto of rage:
You may have recovered the papyrus,
Alferi, but it is of no value to you'll Name of
an Italian dog l have outwitted you even
nowi"
While kneeling to pinion the footpad's arms
behind his back, thus rescuing Tagg from a
professor of the savate, Dick tried to guess
Won Kerber's motive in hurting such an ex-
traordinary taunt after one of his runaway
adversaries, and in French too, whereas the
other had an Italian name and in all likeli-
hood spoke only Italian. Was this Al6eri the
man who "hated" Won Kerber, who brought
a very serious charge" against him! But
Royson was given no time for consecutive
thought. The Baron breathing heavily, and
seemingly in pain, came to him and said in the
low tone of one who does not wish to be over
heard:
Let your prisoner go, Mr.. King. l am all
right, and everlastingly obliged to you; but
l do not wish to be detained in Marseilles
while the slow French law gets to work. So
let him 60. He is nothing mere hireling.

Investigating American Ice Company.
New York, Sept. 11.-District At
torney Jerome has not signifed whether
he will make Attorney General Jackson's
seizure of books of the American Ice
Company and the private correspondence
of the President VIM. Oler, the bssis of
an investigation before the grand jury of
the ice company's methods, IL is Prac-
tically certain, however, that the At
torney General will demand custer pro-
ceedings against the company, and In the
event of Jerome's failure TO act 1t is be-
lieved he will 60 before Governor Hughes
with request that special district at
torney be asked TO conduct the inquiry.
The papers in the Attorney Generals
possession are said to indicate that the
company has resofted to methods for the
suppression of competition and the ex-
tortion of excessive prices more repre-
hensible even than those trusts hitherto
under the lime light in past federal and
State Investigations. The books indicate
that the company made two million
dollars in 1906, besides paying nine per
cent. on fifteen millions of preferred
stock. 1t appears that the company con-
trolls more than sixty per cent. OF New
York's ice business and has large in
terests also in Boston, Philadelphia and
Washington.
