Petition for Habeas Corpus to Secure Control of Children. ~ Dr. Edwin Gladmon carried his domestic troubles into court again Saturday, when he filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus to compel his wife, Margaret B. Gladmon, to produce in court the bodies of Percy L. and Brooke C. Gladmon, their children, in order that they may be deliy- cred Into his custody. The writ was issued by Justice Bradley and made returnable tomorrow at 3 p.m. The petition refers to the marriage of the petitioner and Margaret B. Gladmon in this city March 7, 1881, and states that Percy L.. and Brooke C, are the only children sur- "hey are now in her custody at . HL New Jersey avenue, and have been since February 15, 1897. Since the institu- tion of the divorce proceedings, which. tne petition’ mentions later, Dr. Gladmon says he has not had the opportunity to see or converse with them, or have them visit him at his residence. Within the past six weeks he has made frequent demands to this end, but has been refused, the petition declares. The separation of February 15, 1897, the petitioner states the husband and wife is then described, and that the mother, father and brother of his wife did everything they could to break up the marriage, and have said and done many things to and in the presence of his children to make them dis- like him. The petition states this is par- Ucularly true of their conduct since his wife's suit for divorce was dismissed. Dr. Gladmon swears that his wife is not a fit Or proper person to have the control of the children, and he avers that their de- tention by her now amounts to illegal re- straint.

Carranza's Letter Captared by Secret . rice Men, GREAT PIECE OF JETECTIVE WORK tos tk wo Sensational Revelations Made by the Former Attache. SOME “NAVAL CRITICISMS Chief Wilkie of the United States treas- ury secret service has made public the full text*of the letter which was recently writ- ten by Mr. Carranza, former naval attachs of the Spanish legation in Washington, now in Montreal, to the Spanish ministar of marine at Madrid and secured by Mr. Wilkie’s operatives and brought to Wash- ngton, of which a brief mention was made in The Star Saturday. The letter was re- ceived here about one week ago, but for Public reasons it has been withheld. Copies were Saturday morning furnished to the President, the Secretary of the Treasury and the Secretary. of State, and it is al- tegether probable that action will be inmediately taken to secure the in- stant departure of the Spanish con- tingent from Canadian soil. The let- ter is of the most *sensational character, and discloses the very elaborate spy sys- tem which has been conducted in this country in the interest of Spain. Since their departure from this city Chief Lieut. Carranza. Wilkie's agents have been fully cognizant of every move of the Spaniards, and for the last several weeks he has had agents employed inthe houses where they lodged, and nothing of interest has apparently es- caped their vigilante: “Phe letter, however, was secured by anjpéfative who called at the house in the capagity of a health offi- cer while Mr. Cgrranza was at dinner. The letter was found on his table address- ed for mailing. It was handed by this man to the author?tfés'itn waiting and from them to a third, wtp ifjtantly started with it to Washington. , The, parties under sus- picion in Montreal; ofyhaving taken the letter, Chief Wilkie Bag, are entirely inno- cent, the man who took the letter never having been in tha house before. The offi- als who have had- knowledge of Chief Wilkie’s moves régar@ it as one of ‘the most clever pieces’ §f tetective work ever done in this’ country. ‘The letter is as fol- lows: 1 Mr. Carranza's Letter. MONTREAL, 26th May, 1998. 9) 4 AVPuper Street, 42. To His '‘Extellency, Sr. Don’ Jdse “Gomez Imay: “ My Dear Don Jose: It was my belief that they would have appointed you to command the Cadiz fleet, and it was my intention to have sent you a telegram asking that you take me with you to meet you in the Antilles, or wher- ever you mighi say. The case has not turned out thus, however, and it seems as theugh God were not on our side, because the election of Senor Camara, I fear, will be fatal, although he may have a good chief of staff. No one could possibly suit him, because he 1s very capricious, and besides is not a hard worker; on the con- trary, he is lazy and would pay _no at- tention to the advice of any one. You will not take this for flattery, but today no one but you and Don Pasquale should have command of our fleet, and this is the be- lef of the younger element of the per- sonnel. Now there is no remedy, and may God shed His light upon him ‘and keep him in His hands. I wrote to the minister, and with the confidence due to my special duties, I said to him, on sending a clipping from a newspaper con- taining a telegram from Cadiz, speaking of our fleet and of its admiral, that it was not Senor Camara, but you who should command it; and that we, the lower per- sonnel, who have traveled about a little, know you very well. It may be that this action may have made a bad impression on him, but I don’t care, because if I can do so, I shall leave the service when this war is finished. To Look After the Spy Service. I have been left here to receive and send telegrams and to look after the spy service which I have organized, or, I had better say, am establishing here, because until a very little while ago-I was not permitted to do as I pleased. We have had bad luck because they have captured our two best spies, one in Washington who hanged him- self—or else they did it for him—and the other day before yesterday in Tampa. The Americans are showing the most extraordi- nafy vigilance. I do not wish to remain here without taking an active part in the war, and I desire duty in which 1 can take the initiative and do something. I shall be extremely gratified to have a ship in or- der to run the blockade, or a torpedo boat; anything rather than playing second fiddle. However, if there is no other remedy, I would go perfectly willingly on board a large ship. I am very sorry that this war finds me so low In rank, for it offers opportunities for any one who wishes to work and to risk himself. I cannot be- lieve that Don Pasquale could be in San- tlago as reported by the American press. He entered it on the 18th, and if he had gone immediately to Havana he would have met only two, monitors in front of it. I make it out that-he entered that place only to coal, an withe moral effect it would produce in Sf Suppose he went out Friday, the 20th—if he had gone to the north and through jthe,Providence channel, he would have passé@ into Havana right under the noses ofthe Americans, who had only small cruiserg?"thr Schley was at sea on the night of Thitsdgy, Sampson on that of Friday and on ¢hatsef Sunday, the 22d, he took the lower ¢ltaanel for the east, and on Wednesday 3 back towards Havana. rae io dron has been re- inforced by the Ioy/# 4nd Sampson by the Oregon. I believe that,in war one has to tempt fortune. If itz:h@d not been because Sampson was afratd>that Don Pasquale might go to Havai that Schley would not be there, or selrs.confidence is well grounded that he found himself very short of ammunition agten> the . bombardment through the stealing’ the ordnance de- partment, the fact femains that it was logical for him to femain near Santiago and Cienfuegos, and, if he could not pre- vent the entrance of our squadron, to shut it up, and thus clos¢its campaign, as those People over there alfeady believe it closed. But I cannot believé such a stupid thing possible. I suppose: that he went to the south or Porto Rico.and that he had or- dered a cruiser or two there to’ cover the WHAT D0 THE CHILDREN NK? tea. or Terror, and that he will appear at San Jum the 27th or 28th. He will coal there and will rest a day or two and will then return to delay and annoy them and de- the invasion. The Vizcaya and the Oquendo at least need go into dry dock. Some Messages He Sent. I telegraphed to Don Pasquale on the morning of the 20th, when I knew he was in Santiago, saying that the squadrons were at Key West. He did not answer me. That afternoon there came another tele- gram from Madrid saying he had left San- tiago. I continued sending messages to Gen. Blanco in respect to all the move- ments, and now, so far as I know, Don Pasquale has arrived at Porto Rico, where I shall try to communicate with him. If he should have set out for Martinique or Havana, having twenty-four hours ad- vantage, he would have arrived before now. I am very much afraid lest they at- tack Porto Rico by sea and land and put off the attack on Havana. They are not going to do more than try to take the lat- ter, and they think then if they destroy our fleet of taking the war into Spain with Havana ab eady ir. their power. They have no confidence in their army, but they have in their navy, and they are afraii of our army’ and of yellow féver, because if the men should begin to die in Cuba there would be a tremendous row, as they are not like gur people. Anyway, we shall see when there is news of the fleet. I expect it tomorrow, and with them cleaning their hulls at the Keys, we should be able to clean something in three days at Porto Rico. Each day that passes is worse for us on account of the almost total lack of preparations. Can Bombard Boston Now. If the Cadiz squadron is to come to bom- bard Boston, Portland and Long Island, they can do it now, but after a few months it will be too late. I think if we are to have any success in this matter it will be through treating for peace by yielding Cuba and having them recognize the debt. If we do not do this soon it Will be too late, and we shall lose Cuba and Porto Rico and all that this war has cost us, and in addition we shall be charged with the Cuban debt, for which our treasury is re- sponsible. There is no doubt here that we cannot continue this war in which we have nothing to gain and may lose our three coionies and be ruined for fifty years. In the matter of money there is no patriotism here. Proof is given by the banks which cught to have bought gold, although at a premium of 100 per cent, and issued notes against it in the same or a slightly greater quantity. With 150,000,000 it has made 1,500,000,000. ‘This is the moment of the year at which, instead of returning 23 or 24 per cent, it returns only 12 or 15. AS regards its buying gold, exchange has gone down, and if in buying 400,000,000 it issues 500,000,000, paying 600 or 700, inasmuch as the state subscribes at the rate of 5 per cent, this would represent to the bank an interest of about 3 per cent, and its divi- nd would have gone down very little. he bank is the nation, and with the na- tion it has grown rich by offering paper ey, which it did not have in its treas- and by getting interest on that which it really never had given out. But what- ever the bank does, nobody dares object except thcse who have no money in their pants if they should call for it. Has Written to the Minister. I have written to the minister, but I did not give him so much news of the fleets as to you, because I had other things to speak of. If you should see him you might give him some news. We shall see when they relieve me and send some one here to work and not amuse himself. I can imagine your anxiety for Francisco and the rest, an anxiety that we share. Their terrible ships do not go as fast as ours by perhaps two and a half miles. As for the monitors, they do not count for much; they ¢ be veed only to bombard in a smooth sea, and besides cannot go fast and carry very litle coal. They have delayed Sampson the whole voyage. My regards to Rafael and his daughters, and you know how much your kinsman and subordinate loves you RAMON CARRANZA. I should be glad to have you write me your opinions. You know how much I ap- te them. If the squadron is in Cuba are going to destroy its wretched for- ication and sink a couple of steamers in the mouth. They have already telegraphed to Key West for them to see if they have got them there, and the inventor Holland offers his submarine boat to destroy the mines. Denied by Carranza. A dispatch from Montreal, Quebec, last night says: Tonight Lieut. Carranza ad- mitted that he was the author of the letter made public yesterday by Chief Wilkie of the secret service, and that it was the one stolen a week ago yesterday from his resi- dence. “It was a translation,” he said, “of the letter 1 wrote to my gousin, but it is not as I wrote it. Words have been changed and even whole sentences, yes, even paragraphs, inserted to make it suit the ends of the Inited States government.” What paragraphs?” he was asked. “For instance, that ridiculous paragraph about the spy system. That is nonsense. I am not the head of the spy system, and I do not know, and never knew, more about the two men captured than you did your- self from reading the newspapers. “Then, again, I have had no communica- tion with Gen. Blanco or Don Pasquale. There has been no necessity for my com- municating with them. “It was simply a friendly letter to my cousin expressing my sentiments, and even these have been distorted in the transla- tion. “Take this out, the reference to spies, and the statement of my communicating with Blanco and Don Pasquale, and what have you left? Absolutely nothing that you yourself did not know. Do you not think that the Canadian government will require better proof before compelling me to leave the country?” ——___+e+—___ Without Interest and Penalty.

An enthusiastic meeting of the remaining officers and men of Light Battery A of the District National Guard was held Satur- day night at the armory, when it was de- cided to reorganize the battery at once and recruit the depleted ranks up to a standard number of men Capt. Hine of the battery and Lieuts. Griffith and Broome have all entered the service of the United States, so the duty of reorganizing the command falls. upon the only commissioned officer remaining in the city, Lieut. Toep- per. He will assume command and recruit- ing will begin at once. The next meeting of the battery will be held Saturday night at the armory. The various officers who have been as- signed to command of the skeleton organi- zation of the National Guard are actively at work preparing for a recruitment of the brigade up to the standard established before the war depleted its ranks. The 1st Regiment has quite an organization, but the 2d is decimated, the brunt of en- listments into the regular service falling upon this regiment. —__>—— Closing Social of the Season, The Intermediate Christian Endeavor So- ciety of the First Congregational Church held its closing social for the season Friday night at the residence of Mr. A.
