P | | Special Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGTON, July 23.—Secretary Alger has always felt a pride in the success with which the War Department | met the tremendous problem thrust upon it by the necessity with which it was suddenly confronted during the war with Spain of suddenly disposing of the thou- sands of Spanish prisoners captured in Santiago province. The history of that | time has not been fully, told and it re- | mained for Secretary Alger to-day to sup- ply the need by the following bit of reminiscence: “On the night of July 8, 189, the Presi- dent asked me what in my judgment we should do with the Spanish prisoners of Santiago after their capture. The matter had received very much thought from the President and myself, but no definite con- clusion had been reached. 1 then sug- gested to the President that Galveston, Texas, would be the best place in the United States where we could send them; that it was away from the coast line travel; a good harbor; that there would be plenty of room for camping hat its climate would be as nearly sim- flar to that of Santiago as we could prob- ably select. “This seemed to meet his approval, as it was only a question of time, of course, when their capture would be effected. I | went to my home, as nearly as I can re- member, about 2 o'clock in the morning, and being tgo tired to sleep 1 lay awake | for a \\'hib(but finally dozed off.” I woke at daybrea and my first thought was concerning the Spanish prisoners, and the new idea me into my head, ‘Why not send them back to Spain? Iy impressed me that I formulated | my plan, and on the morning of July 10, | instead of going to the department direct, |1 went to the White House and laid the new plan before the President, saying that it would be an unprecedented pro- cedure and a most gracious act; that to port the prisoners to Galveston would be half the distance; that we should have to them there, no doubt have to ship em back to Spain in the end. I also ated that I believed that it would be a great inducement to the Spaniards to sur- render, which General Shafter afterward The President and | assured me was the effect. | readily approved the plan, and on the | same “day 1 cabled General Shafter as | follow: “ “War Department, July 10, 189 “‘General Shafter, Playa del Este, San- tiago. Cub Should the Spaniards sur- render unconditlonally and wish to return to Spain they will be sent back direct at the expense of the United States Gov- ernment. R. A. ALGER, * ‘Secretary of War.’ “Upon receiving this on the 11th of July General Shafter sent the following com- munication to the commander-in-chief of the Spanish forces: “ ‘Headquarters of Fifth Army Corps, : near Santiago de Cuba, July 11 . With the largely increased forces which have come to me, and the act that I have vour line of retreat se- f curely in my hands, the time seems fitting that I should again demand of your Ex- cellency the surrender of Santiago and of | your Excellency’s army. I am authoried 1o state that should your Excellency so desire, the Government of the United of your Excellency to Spain. have the honor to be, very respect- | fully, your obedient servant, “ WILLIAM R. SHAFTER, Major General commanding.’ “To which the commander replied: Santiago de Cuba, July 11, 18%8.—Sir: I have the honor to advise your Excellency that your communication of this date is received, and in reply desire to confirm that which I said in my former communi- | cation; also to advise you that I have | communicated _your proposition to the genecral-in-chief. Reiterating my senti- ments, 1 am, your respectful servant, JOSE TORAL, Commander-in-chief Fourth Corps and Military Governor of Santiago.’ | “Immediately upon the surrender staps were tzken to carry out the pledges oi the United States Government shipment of Spaniards home. The Quartermaster’s Department immediately advertised for bids to transport the prisoners to Spain, with the result that eight of the ocean {ransportation companies submitted ombined bid, which was for officers $110 and for enlisted men $o per_ capita, Steamers to be dispatched from Santiaxo de Cuba within forty-eight hours of their reported arrival, or demurrage to be paid at the rate of 60 cents per capita per day; ame demurrage to be paid if steamers be detained at place of debarkation by quarantine or other cause. The Spanish Transatiantic_Company’s bid was $5 per capita for officers and $20 for enlisted men. with no demurrage. The Spanish < offer was accepted, the rations company's 0 ) for the prisoners were inspected by a United States Government offical, and tion of all the prisoners $513.85). The same number carried by the other companies under their bid would have cost the Gov- | | | this Government paid for the transporta- | | ernment $1,312,915. | to the United States ! much more in demurrage. | oeser days after the contract was | the President said t({ me as 1 i Cabinet room: Secre- awar entered tary, would you like to hear s favorable to vou printed in the New York Time: and went on to read the editorial comment complimentary to the man whose mind originated the plan of trans- porting the Spaniards back to Spain.” — e MANY STEAMERS FOR SALE. TUnsuccessful Gold-Seekers Trying to | Dispose of Craft. SEATTLE, July 23.—Late arrivals from | St. Michael, Alaska, report that there are | at St. Michael about forty small river | steamers for sale.

After his stomach had been sluiced out he regained con- sciousness and made the walls vibrate with another echo of the recent French ball. Piggott is the husband of that Grace Piggott who came into prominence in March a year ago, at which time she and another girl, Lena Carillo, attempted to commit suicide by jumping into the bay from the steamer Piedmont. Both girls were rescued. Because Grace Piggott de- serted him George Piggott took morphine. | “Gracie and I went to the French ball together,” he told Dr. Rice, “‘and we had a splendid time of it until I was over- come and lost her. I haven't seen her | since then, and heard this morning that| she had given me up for good. That wa: | too much for me to stand, so I got m friend, Tom Cassidy. to_get me 10 cents’ | worth of morphine, and I swallowed it all. | | When I began to go to sleep they ran me down here, and that's all I know. I don’t care if Gracie never comes back. J. McCarty of 13 Harriet street was an- other caller at the hospital.

Dr. L. cke gave as an illustration many of the marvelous facts known to students of astronomy. In referring to the sun he said that if it were | hollow there could be tumbled into it 352,- 000 globes like our earth; that it was $00.- 000 times denser than its system, and hence was the center of gravity. He re-| ferred to the eight planets of the sun,| and said that Neptune was the farthest distant, 28,000,000 of miles. The fixed stars | were also described as suns, and as being | distant from the earth not less than 100,000 | times 190000000 of miles. He said the polar star was equal to efghty-six of our suns; that the milky way was composed of suns, each of which had a planetary system like our own sun. Having called | attention to these and many other astro- | nomical truths, Dr. Locke said: | Does some qne say this is not the gospel? AR! tell me where are there euch illustrations | of the majesty and knowledge and pows perfection of the Great Father? Truly and marvelous are thy works, Lord God Al- | mighty.® Every glistening ‘orb in_yonder | heavens is an eloquent preacher of righteous- | ness, ‘‘day unto day uttering speech and night | showing knowledge.”” Who can remain ir- | | | | reverent or athelstic in such a presence? — e | ELOQUENT SERMON BY BISHOP GAINES | Bishop W. J. Gaines, D.D., of Atlanta, Ga., preached the sermon last evening at Bethel African M. E. Church, taking for his text: “There shall come a star out of | Jacob, and a scepter shall rise out of Is- | | rael.”” He said in part: Jesus Christ came as a star in the moral night of this world to banish the spiritual dark- ness which enveloped the minds and souls of | men. He was a star in the night of sin, for the world was black with sin when Christ came out of Jacob. If you were asked to-day which is the greatest kingdom in the world you would answer that of Jesus Christ, who wields a scepter that is mightier than any ever held by | mortal man. Be faithful to your King. Be Christian by practice: live up to the holy tenets | of the church and God will give You rest. After his sermon Bishop Gaines made an earnest appeal to the congregation, among whom were many white people, for assistance in lifting the debt of the church, amounting to $6500. He remarked that white people had given $i5,000.000 to | | the cause of religion and educauon in the South, and he himself had raised $500,000 during his ministerial career. Bishop Gaines will preach this morning at 11 o'clock in the Young Men's Christian As- sociation auditorium. REV. FATHER WOODS ON THE VIRTUE OF HOPE | | Rev. Father Woods delivered the sev- | enth of his series of discourses prepara- tory to the consecration of the twentfeth | century to Christ at St. Ignatius Church last night. He took for his theme ““Th Virtue of Hope in the Promises of God and he sald in part: | Men are prone to place small hope in the | promises of God. but we should rely on his | keeping them without fall. Men and women | of the world set very littie score on what | Christ in his infinite generosity has agreed to | Q. He has promised us heaven, and if we seek his grace we hall surely attain it. There | | is no prospect whatever for the world if we | renounce supernatural revelation, for it looks | as it the devil in that case would triumph and that God is losing. It {s important that we should avold evil and do g£00d, in order to prepare ourselves to consecrate the approach- | ing century to the Lord Jesus Christ. Let us | | by a devotion to the Sacred Heart instill in | | oirselves a spirit of hope. Let us believe in | the supernatural virtue of hope and rest as- sured that God will accomplish everything he has promised us for our salvation. Let us co-operate with Christ in order, that his glory may be proclaimed. throughout ‘the world. e 'REV. WILLIAM RADER SCORES SPIRITUALISM Rev. William Rader discussed the sub- ject of “Spiritualism” at the Third Con- gregational Church last evening. He said among other things: There is a distinct revival of spiritualism At the present time in the United States. It dates back to 145, when the Fox sisters discovered a possible communication with the departed through a system of “‘rappings.” One who was identified with the Fox sisters has just published an article in which a confession is made of their fraudulent methods. To-day our citles are filled with trance mediums and clair- voyants, who for a ‘‘consideration connect you with eternity. Hypnotism, mesmerism, telepathy, palmistry increase the enthusiasm in the mysteries of spirit intercourse. The rapid spread of this cult is due to-extreme materialism. Spiritualism has been summoned to the bar of science and has been found want- ing. I believe that spiritualism produces an | | | 5 i | | | i | stmr Humboldt, unhealthy mental and spiritual condition, Thera is no ehort cut to eternity and nobody has a private telephone to the dead. Spiritualism has brought nothing back from the other world worth learning. No problem has been solved. no sorrow assuaged. I know of no spiritualist who is an active Christian church worker. _— e ————— A SERMON BY AN EVANGELIST Evangelist H. A. Ironside preached I night in the hall on City Hall square, tak- ing his text from Jude, eleventh verse: “Woe unto them, for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and per- ished in the gainsaying of Core.” He said: | said: There are three classes represented hepe.
