yt utility. The Kiilleilea In hot It
chambers were thronged yUh nu ex
iH-etiitit erond. The senate-wan very
full, hardly 11 single jrenernl luting absent.
Seuor Montoro Ulna, president of the
Honnto, in opening the proceedings, pro
imuiRTil a eulogy upon M. Kniire, and 11
VHohitiutiH of condolence with l'Vance
waH adopted unanimously.
Senor SiiKiista, the premier, then pro
posed to refer the bill providing for the
eexHiou of the Philippines to the United
Slates to u Hpeclnl committee, but this
the Conservatives protested against, de
claring that the hill ought to be con
scientiously discussed, and .Seuor Sa
gastn withdrew his proposal.
Count d'AImenas then brought up the
question of the conduct of the generals
engaged hi the war in Cuba, declaring
that General I'rimi) ilc Itlvera, Oeneral
Weyler, General Blanco, Admiral Cer
veru and General LiunreB had proved
failures. Thin declaration elicited much
applause from the public galleries, In
consequence of which several of the
spectators were expelled from the cham
ber. Observing that ho would deal with the
"shniuefiil enpitulatlon of Santiago,"
Count d'Almcnns asked tho house
whether he should proceed, and was nn
swered with cries of "yes" and "no,"
nnd a general uproar ensued. A repeti
tion of tire query provoking still greater
tumult, Seuor Sngnsta rose and de
fended the government and Its Spanlsn
peace commission. The premier eriti
eized America's "unjustifiable conduct, '
nnd -said that everything might be dis
cussed except the war, because the cases
of the generals were still sub-judlce.
Count u Alnicnus resumed his nttnek
upon the generals, and complained that
live months had elapsed und not a
single general had been shot." This
gave rise to another tumult, and Count
d'AImcuaa was called to order. Again
he asked why the generals who capitu
lated nau not, been executed. It is quite
true, he declared, that the army is an
army of Hons led by asses. Captain Gen
eral Blanco's administration in Cuba was
deplorable, he said, but he was not re
sponsible for the surrender of Santiago.
ICecriminutious continued between
Count d'Almenus nud Lieutenant Gen
eral Correa, the minister of war, and
there was renewed disorder. Genernl
I'rimo de Itivern arose and denounced
Count d'Alinenns as "a contemptible
ealuminntor."
General Blanco followed, defending
the generals nnd accepting full respon
sibility for events hi Cuba during his
command in the island. General Barges
denounced Count d'Alinenns as a caluiu-
inator.
After a promise on the part of Count
d'Alinenns to produce proofs of ids as
sertions the senate adjourned.
In the chnniber Senor Sdvella, the
leader of the Dissident Conservatives,
moved u vote, signed by the Conservative
deputies, censuring the government for
its indifference to the country s troubles.
Senor Annix, In seconding the motion.
denounced the ministry for accepting the
war through fear of the Cnrlists und de
clared that the country was now suf
fering the consequences of the govern
ment's pussillanimity. lie proceeded to
detail the luck of preparations and of
war niatriuls nnd charged the govern
ment with responsibility for the sur
render of Santiago, which they ordered,
ulthough the garrison there numbered
23,000 und there were sutllcient provis
ions in the place for thre" months. This
declaration created 11 sensation.
In proof that the government was re
sponsible for the surrender of Cuba
Senor Annix read telegrams from Seuor
Sagastn and Ideuteant General Correa
to General Blanco ordering the surrender
of Cuba us a means of saving Porto
Itico and the Philippines and preserving
order in the peninsula. He also read
General Blanco's telegram in reply, op
posing the surrender, hut agreeing to
obey the government's order.
Senor Annix added tliat President jSic-
Kinley had telegraphed to General Shat
ter that the surrender of Santiago had
been arranged with the Madrid govern
ment, nud that, therefore, he must make
a sort of t-Imm attack.

you have a rumbling sound or Imperfect bear

WnnhlnKtcm, .Feb. 21. Hear Admiral
W. S. Sehli-y bavin, been grunted per
tnUmiui ' answer the charge recently
ln:ulc nv'uinKt him In the comtnunleitioii
re. ently wnt to the senate. yi,terdy
hnmli'd to the committee nn naval affulrx
hm ntatement. In which he diKcinlm, an)
uirKKe of cotitmrrrny with the navy
department.
The admiral ,iy bl order from
from SRinpmiii on My 11) were to block
ade Cleiifuegiw, which 'he proceeded to
do. Hp hid no knowledge that there
were any insurireutu about ClenfueKon
who were friendly until the Marblehead
arrived on the IMth. liven hd he had
thl knowledge on the 23d of May, the
surf would have prevented communica
tion. On ti 1m arrival he sent Commodore
McCalla, of the Marblehead, ashore to
pfitibllah relation with the lniirRentn,
the result of which w made known to
him at 3:-10 011 May 21. Then, for the
first time, he learned definitely Hint the
Spauixh fleet wan not at Cleiifiiegon.
Within two hours he started for Sun
tlBprci. "What ixtsalble ground of critl
eUm," he snj', "advene to me, there
can he in all this, 1 do uot see. I was
on the spot, acting under orders which
gave me entire dlocretion, nnd yet
clothed me with the responsibility of
going to Santiago only after I whs satis
fied the fleet was not at Clenfuegos."
lie quotes from the dispatch of Samp
sou of May 20, In which the latter snya
Schley should "hold litx fleet off Clen
fiuKO. If the Spanish ships have put
into Santiago they must come either to
Havana or jionfuegoi to deliver tin
munitions of war which they are said
to bring for use In Cuba. 1 mil, there
fore, of the opinion that the best chance
to capture tliiwe ships will be to hold the
two points, Clenfuegos and Ilnvnna.
with all the force wo can muster."
As to the slow progress toward San
tlngo on account of the Kngle. he states
that she was a part of the force which
Admiral Sainpwn hud seen fit to send
him, and he hnd no right to abandon her.
The weather was rough, and not much
better speed could have been kept up.
He had been ordered to proceed "cau
tiously." If, however, he hnd known
that the Spanish Hoot was in Santiago
no consideration for the BhvtIc or any
thins else would have prevented him
from getting there at the earliest pos
sible moment.
Spenklng of "the retrograde move
ments." which the secretary, adopting
the language of Admiral Sampson, char
acterizes as "reprehensible conduct,"
Admiral Schley says that In 42 years'
service "never was such language used
to characterize conduct of mine, nnd
I see no reason for It now."
As to the battle of Santiago, Admiral
Schley says the facts of that contest
speak for themselves. Quoting from his
oUlcial report to Sampson, in which he
congratulated the commander of the
squadron and said the "victory seems
big enough for us all," he nsks the com
mittee to-contrnst his reports nnd those
of Sampson containing references to him
self, lie continues:
"As to all this criticism of my course
prior to the discovery by me on May 20
of Cervera's Hoot, whether from Admiral
Sampson or the department, none of it
has ever been made by cither to me,
and I never heard a word of it from any
one until after the battle with that fleet.'
Admiral Schley quotes the depart
ment's dispatch of May 29 in these
words: "The department looks to you to
ascertain the fact of the presence of
the enemy, nnd that the enemy, if In the
harbor of Santiago, does not leave with
out decisive action." Commenting upon
this the admiral says: "In obedience to
the above order I did ascertain the fact
thnt the enemy was at Santiago, nnd the
enemy did not leave without a decisive
conflict."
Detailing events connected with the
battle of July 3 he says at 8:-15 of that
dny Admiral Sampson made signal from
his flagship, "Disregnrd movements of
commander-in-chief," nnd steamed east
ward to Siboney. "This," says Admiral
Schley, "left me the senior officer pres
ent and necessarily clothed me with the
responsibility of the command." Con
tinuing he declares that when the
enemy's vessels came out of the harbor
n signal was made from the Hrooklyn
(his flagship) to the fleet to "clear ship
for action," Then followed the signal
"close action," nnd this by the signal
"the enemy is escaping westward."
He says the Spanish fleet was coming
westward under high speed, and "chang
ing course more to westward brought tho
Brooklyn heading eastward to meet It,
Into a position where she would have
blanketed the fire of the eastern vessels
of our force, now chnnglng their courses
to the westward, and between them nnd
the Spanish vessels. Instant decision
was necessary to avoid interfering in
nny way or cutting off any of the fire of
Our vessels, as would have occurred if
phe had turned towards the Spanish
fleet, now npproaching the Brooklyn.
Turning outward left the enemy's ships
unmasKcd by tue Hrooklyn and exposed
them to the concentrated fire of our
squadron."
At the final capture of tho Colon nt
1:15 p. m. the Brooklyn wns nenrest, the.
Oregon next nnd then the Texas and
Vixen. The New York nrrived at 2:25
p. in., and tho coinninnder-in-chief as
sumed command of the squadron. Sig
nals were made from the Brooklyn to
the squadron until nil signal halyards
were sot away, and then by nrmy code.
in conclusion Admiral Schley contends
that the turn of the Brooklyn In the
bnttlc was the crucial mid deciding;
feature of the combat, and o( decided
Idvantage.
IIo says he mrtdo no report of his man
euver in his report of the battle, as Its
effect upon the battle was never n ques
tion witn mm. ins last paragraph, rendst
"On May 31 1 received n telegram from
tho commander-in-chief congratulating
me upon my success In locating and
blockading the enemy's fleet nt San
tiago, If it was worthy of commcndn
Hon at tliut time I am at a loss to under
stand how it could huvo grown Into
reprehensible conduct, as suggested hy
Admiral Sampson in his letter of July
10, 1SQ3, some six weeks later."

If it is permitted to get out of order if
the blood becomes full of impurities, if
the system is allowed to run-down it
won't be long until consumption will
find the "opening" and deal its fatal
blow. Protect yourself with Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, the non-alcoholic
remedy for the stomach, blood and
nerves. Take it for lingering coughs,
colds, bronchitis, weak and bleeding
lungs. It has cured so many thousands
that it will also cure you. Don't under
any circumstances permit the medicine
dealer to induce you to take some other
remedy. There nre many .substitutes on
the market, but none of them possess
the power to cure like " Golden Sledi
