”1. RETURN TO HAVANA
Long’s Statement About Spain’s Account-
ability—She Might Be Free from Official
Participation, as He Stated, and Yet Not
Free from Responsibility.
Key West, March 3.-—The Maine
Commission finished its work here yes-
terday, when a. general muster of all
the survivors was held at the barracks.
The commisssion is expected to ’return
to Havana after the funeral of the
members of the crew whose bodies are
expected here to-day on the Coast Sur-
vey vessel Bache.
The proceedings at the barracks last-
ed about an hour and were conducted
with great privacy. Judge Advocate
Marix, in reply to inquiry, said that
so far as he knew the court has no more
work to do at Key West. Ten of the
witnesses testified as to the coaling of
the Maine at the Key West station.
Capt. Hanlon, of the steamer Mascotte,
which arrived from Havana last night,
says that when the vessel left Havana
there were no signs of impending riot
or of anti-American demonstration.
On the contrary, everything was nor-
mally quiet.
Survivors of he Maine expect to be
ordered North when the Investigating
Commission has finished its examina-
tion. Probably it will leave to—mor-
row.
The fact is becoming 'more evi-
dent as the days pass that
any information direct from mem-
bers of the United States Court of
Inquiry into the loss of the battleship
Maine and from those appearing before
it is most closely guarded and that
practically no information which has
been presented to the court has been
disclosed. The restrictions are so se-
vere that the communication between
the naval men who haVe been before
the court have been most guarded.
Naval officers at this station who are
not connected with the court express
the view that very little testimony has
yet been heard as to the exact causes
of the disaster.
SPAIN’S RESPONSIBILITY.
Secretary Long Explains His Statement
of Tuesday.
“’ashington, March 3.—When Secre—
tary Long made the statement Tuesday
after the Cabinet meeting, while mere-
ly reflecting his personal opinion in the
matter, he undoubtedly gave an inti-
mation that the administration was of
the belief that the only conditions
which could make possible the initia-
tion of war by this country, had been
removed. The Secretary did not say
that all questions pertaining to Spain’s
for the Maine disaster
had been removed, but that the Gov-
ernment’s official participation in the
disaster was practically eliminated.
The Secretary said yesterday:
“Spain could be free from official par-
ticipation and yet not escape responsi-
bility. For instance, if it was shown
that the Maine was blown up by a.
member of the Cuban Junta, Spain
would be responsible, because the Cu-
bans are Spanish citizens. I have not
yet said that Spain will be free from
all responsibility."
The statement has caused a good deal;
of criticism in some circles, because it
'was supposed that the administration
would remain silent until after the
Court of Inquiry had given its verdict.
But, on the other hand, the announce-
ment has donemuch to quiet the dis-
turbing elements that have been trying
to impress the Spanish Government
with the idea. that the administration
had made up its mind to precipitate a.
war, and therefore Secretary Long’s
words are significant, not as indicating
where the responsibility rests, but as
indicating the course of the administra-
tion when the report of the Board of
Inquiry is finally made, and that is that
there win be no declaration of war by
this Government. .
OFFICIAL‘TENSION RELIEVED.
No Dispatches Received in Washington—
?ruiser Brooklyn Goes South.
Washington, March 3.—The tension
over the Maine affair is noticeably re-
lieved in official quarters, partly be-
cause of the absence of dispatches to
the State or Navy Departments, hear-
ing on the subject, and also because of
the conservatism inspiredby Secretary
Long’s utterance.
Although the Navy. Department had
no reports from Havana or Key West,
a dispatchfiannouncing the departure of
the cruiser Brooklyn from Santa. Lucia.
for La. Guayra. had some indirect sig-
nificance in further removing one of the
larger vessels of the navy from "what
has thus far been the common centre
of naval activity, at Key West. The
Brooklyn will make a. short stop at La
Guayra, and will then proceed further
southward.
At the Spanish legation the Maine
inquiry is not the subject of oflicial at-
tention and beyond sharing in the gen-
eral interest that is felt in the subject
the legation officials have no occasion
to consider officially any of the phases
of the affair.
.Mr. Du Bose feels satisfied, from all
he advices he has received, that the
inquiry and proceedings at Havana are
being facilitated by both parties. ‘He
says the Spanish officials gave the full-
est opportunities to the American div-
ers, in making their investigations of
the wreck and that Captain Sigsbee has
shown the same consideration to the
Spanish officials and their divers.
To Sum-or Cuba’s Starving.
Vashington. March 3.—Secreta.ry
Long has decided to send ‘two naval
vessels to Cuba. at once with forty 01‘
fifty tons of provisions for the relief of
the surgeiing reconcentrados. The ves-
sels will go to Matanzas or Sagua. It
is said that it is an emergency that
makes it necessary to send provisions
in oxder to succor the starving. The
Montgomery \V ill take supplies to Me.-
tanzas and the Nashville supplies to
Sagua la Grande. The vessels will not
stop in Cuban waters. but will return
immediately after delivering their sup-
plies, which were furnished by the New
York Cuban Relief Committee. ‘ " ’

r‘ to report on Senator Mason‘s joint
1-: solution fer an investigation of the
1' cut killing of the colored postmastei
.11 Lake City, S. C. The resolution
\r.:s amended and as reported is as fol—
laws:
“E’V’hereas, it is asserted that the
United States postmaster at Lake City,
S. C., has been murdered and his wife

(-cnsisting of six members of Congress,
three from the Senate and three from
the House, be apointed to investigate
the alleged crime, and report the facts
to Congress, together with their recom-
mendations, and that they have au-
thority to administer oaths, to send for
persons and papers and to employ a
stcnographer, to be paid out of the con-
g‘t‘llt funds of the two houses of Con—
gress, and the power to act through a.
sub—committee.”
Mr. Mason presented the report to
the Senate, but, on objection of Mr.
Allen, the resolution was laid over. until
to-day. ‘

Hisses Greet lVIcKinley’s Name'.‘ ‘
New York. March 3.——When W.
Bourke Cochran, in a speech at"1 the
mass meeting held at Cooper Union,
last night, to protest against the Lodge
immigration bill, made an allusion to
President McKinley, he was drowned
by hisses; when he spoke slightingly of
Bryan, the hisses continued, though
several applauded. But when the
speaker made a. remark which the au-
dience took to be an allusion to the
heroes of the Maine disaster, he was
cheered enthusiastically. Mr. Coch-
ran attacked the United States Senate,
calling it a body of “machinists with-
out ability.” He termed the Lodge
bill “a product of material and moral
darkness.” Resolutions were adopted
condemning the Lodge bill as being
against the best interests of labor and
opposed to the traditional policy of the
United States.
Funeral of ‘Villiam MT. Singerly.
Philadelphia, March 3.—The funeral
services of William M. Singerly, the
publisher and editor, were held at his
residence yesterday afternoon, but
the doors were opened at 11 o'clock to
permit the public to look upon his fea-
tures. From the moment admission
was obtained, until the services began,
a. period of nearly four hours, an un-
broken line of people passed through
the parlor where the casket had been
placed, and then out at the rear of the
house. This constant stream included
thousands of persons in every walk of
life, and there were seen in the line
representatives of the National, State
and municipal governments, men prom—
inent in every political faction or party,
bankers, merchants, editors, lawyers,
and many workmen who had seen years
of service in Mr. Singerly’s employ.
Policeman Shoots an Insane Doctor.
Chicago, March 3.—Dr. Francis
Brooks, a. young physician, was shot
and seriously wounded last night by
Patrolmen Burke and Duffy, who had
been summoned to the house by the
family to control Dr. Brooks. The
mind of the young physician lately has
become affected by overstudy, and last
night be alarmed the members of his
family by his handling of a large carv-
ing knife. The policemen were called
for, and as soon as Burke and Duffy
appeared Dr. Brooks attacked them
with the knife. Burke fired‘ at him
point—blank, the bullet striking Dr.
Brooks in the left arm. He continued
his attack, however, and Duffy fired,
hitting the doctor in the side, inflicting
a wound that may prove fatal.

CONTRACT FOR PROJECTILES.
Arron of Conference Comlnitte'e in Ap-
propriating Money for That Purpose.
‘V‘i’ashington, March 3.—The action of
the Conference Committee on the For-
tifications Appropriation bill in agree-
ing to the appropriation of $943,000 for
ammunition will relieve the War De—
partment of some embarrassment
which might occur had only the usual
appropriation been made. Within the
last few days, the department has con-
tracted for nearly $1,000,000 of projec-
tiles for the new high—power guns
mounted in the coast fortifications.
These contracts were made as an emer-
gency step, and evidently with the full
understanding that the pending bill
would carry a. sufficient appropriation
to pay for them.
The agreement has been signed be-
tween the Ordnance 'Bureau and repre-
sentatives of the bi steel companies
making the projecti The gentle-
men representing these companies came
here in responseWto . telegrams, and
there was no difficulty in .making the
arrangements, and it is said that they
agreed to deliver all the shells, 5,000 in
all, in the next four or six months. The
shells are to be of 8, 10 and 12-inch cali-
ber, and are needed for the high-power
guns‘ already mounted in the coast de-
fense batteries.

of Havana the train ran slowly because
the insurgents had cut the wires, and
Senator Proctor, on his return, was
told that there had been a. small skir-
mish not many miles from the line, in
which five or six men had been
wounded.
“A Grave Emergency,” Says Alger.
Washington, March 3.—-—Secretary of
War Alger had several heated inter-
views yesterday with members of Con-
gress who wanted to know why he
made contracts for $1,000,000 worth of
ammunition without waiting for Con-
gressional action on the Appropriation
bill. Secretary Alger said that the
country was confronted with a grave
emergency, and that statutory provi-
sion conferred authority on him to act
without waiting for Congress. “If Con-
gress should decide that I was wrong,”
said the Secretary, “I will pay the bill
myself.”

kind.”

they were on their way home.
The survivors say the Speedwell;
which was a small vessel of about
twenty-five tons, was making slow
headway yesterday morning against a
head wind. About 7 o’clock Captain.
Collier was at'the wheel and the Nich-

Green rushed to take in sail. As the
jib fiapped loose, the squall caught the
schooner and blew her clean over on
the port side.
Collier, the deckhands and Mr; Gates
were swept into the seething sea, but
caught the rigging just in time to save
themselves. The wind, rain and surges
drowned the dying cries of the impris-

FOR STARVING CUBA.
Relief Cargoes from New York to Be Dis-
tributed to Sufl’crers by \Varships.
New York, March 4.—-The steamship
Bergen, of the Munson Line, sailing for
southern ports to-day, will carry the
following relief supplies to be distrib-
uted among the suffering Cubans
through Consuls Brice, at Matanzas,
and Barker, at Sagua la Grande:
One hundred and sixty-two cases of
milk. 200 bags of rice, 125 bags of beans,
14,000 pounds of codfish, 12,000 pounds
of bacon, 400 bags of corn meal, 25
tierces of lard, 600,000 grains of quinine.
All has been purchased by the Cuban
Relief Society on donations of philan-
thropic disposition. In addition to the
above supplies the same steamer will
carry a. miscellaneous stock of goods
in the shape of food and clothing, the
donations of outside committees, aggre-
gating about 100 tons in all. .
One of the Mallory Line steamers
bound for Key West to-morrow will
carry 75 tons of miscellaneous articles,
comprising food, medicines and cloth-
ing. Part of this latter supply will be
sent under direction of Rear-Admiral
Sicard to Matanzas on the cruiser
Montgomery, and the remainder will
be forwarded to Sagua. la Grande on
the gunboat Nashville for distribution
by Consuls Brice and Barker.
The Mallory Line Company has
agreed to carry free of charge to Key

Loud 13111 Defeated.
Washington, March 4.—The Loud bill
to correct{ alleged abuses of the second-
class mail. matter privilege, which last
year passed the House by 144 to 104.
was laid on thetable in the House yes-
terday bya vote of 182 to 119. Forty-
seven Republicans joined with the
Democrats and Populists in accom-
plishing this result.
Before the bill was defeated Mr.
Griggs secured the adoption of an
amendment to allow newspapers and
periodicals to transmit at pound rates
1,000 sample series.
The action of yesterday kills the bill.
The fight for the measure has had the
support of the Postofiice Department,
on the ground that the privileges given
to second-class matter under the pres-
ent law were the chief cause of the
deficit in postal revenue.
Publishers of newspapers and peri-
odicals have been arrayed against the
bill.

SENSI‘TIZING PAPER.
A Prescription Which May Benefit Anna.
. ten-r Photographers.
There are two ways of sensitizing-
paper, says Harper’s Round Table, in
an article on photography., One is to
apply the solution with a brush, and
the other is to float the salted paper
on the surface of the liquid. Thin pa-
pers like Rives photographic paper
take the solution quickly, and do not
require so many applications of the
solution if it is applied with a brush,
01' so long a soaking if floated on the
liquid, as do the 'heavy, rough papers
like Whatman’s drawing paper or
crayon paper.
The paper is first sat-ted; and it is
better to have this done by the deal-
er in photographic goods, as it is
much easier to apply the sensitive so-
lution than it is to salt the paper. It
photographic paper is used, ask for
fresh salted paper, but if drawing pa-
per is used take it to the dealer and
have it salted. The expense is very
trifling, a sheet of salted paper cost-
ing only a cent or two more than the
plain paper.
The sensitizing solution is made of
240 grains of nitrate of silver (60c)
and 5 ounces of distilled or filtered
water. Dissolve the nitrate-of—silver
crystals in the water, and then add
strong liquid ammonia drop by drop,
stirring the solution constantly, until
the brown precipitate which is formed
by the addition of the ammonia has
disappeared and the liquid is clear.
Not more than seventy-five drops of
ammonia should be added to the solu-
tion, and if it does not clear when
this amount has been added, clear the
solution by filtering. ,

During 'a subsequent
visit to his mother the subject came
under discussion between them one
day and she said to him: “Ah,
Charles, I often prayed the Lord to
make you a Christian, but I never

“I could not,” he remarked in relat-
ing the incident, “resist the tempta-

has answered your prayer with his
usual bounty, and given you exceed-
ingly abundantly above what you ask-
