sailors seems to have been preached
today judging from the statement of

that he need not land his forces on
Diaz's account.

into the town he must keep clear OF
the Mole. which is under the pro-
lection of the sailors Of the Des

from Illoa, the fortress which was

PRINCETON, n. J., Oct. a..--The
most exciting thing Governor Wilson

speeches at the State house in Tren-

full stenographers had been amusing
himself by twisting some of the gov

SO that they had exactly the opposite
meaning TO that Intended The -sten-
ographer had dictated his version of
speech into the monograph. sup
plying the interruption, applause and
cheers by the audience.
The governors secretary heard the
speech and thought it such good
comedy that he induced the COVER
nor to put the receivers to his ears
and listen himself. The candidate
was delighted with the result. The
speech had not proceeded far when
broad smile overspread his face. He
laughed outright several times, and
when the performance had ended he
said:
Il recognize the voices. The speech
is very we'll done
