Miss Dorr is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Dorr of Buffalo and 4s a young woman of charming personality, culture and refinement. She met her future hus- band in Albany several years ago. After graduating from the Albany High School, where he won high honors as a stenographer, Mr. Loeb soon became known as-one of the best shorthand men in the Capitol, and at the age of 21 was elected official stenographer of the As- sembly. Later, when Senator J. Sloat Fassett became president pro tem. of the Senate, Mr. Loéb became his private sec- retary. He filled a similar position for Lieutenant Governor Saxton, and when President Roosevelt was elected Governor he selected Mr. Loeb as his private sten- ographer. During the two years whea President Roosevelt was Governor much of his private business was intrusted to the care of Mr. Loeb, and when electel Vice President Mr. Loeb became Roose- velt's private secretary. Mr. Loeb was with the President during his journey to Buffalo after the death of President Mc- Kinley, and accompanied him to Wash- ington 'and Canton on the funeral train. Revenge on the Viceroys.

But does it follow that in selecting a man to place at the head of a great financial institution, as, for instance, the Ealifornia or the Nevada or the Hibernia Bank, honesty is the all-sufficient qualifica- tion?’ Does not common sense suggest that the man fitted for these positions must possess sonie other qualification besides honesty: that befors he can be made a general and intrusted with the lives of soldiers he smust have adequate knowledge of war; that before he can be ap- pointed commander of & line of battle ship he must he can be made manager of a bank he must have mastered the intricacies of the realm of finance ?

As soon as he mentioned to me to take the Oregon and go eastward and meet this ship which had been seen by the Resolute I must say I felt some little delight, because I thought that after the admirable work of the squadron on that day and the part that the Brooklyn and Oregon had in it there was nothing that car- ried Spanish colors that we should have hesi- tated to meet.” Pursuit of a Stranger. After this story of the battle, told by the senfor officer who had participated in it, the vast audience, which had listened for an hour in almost breathless quiet, appeared to shift about slightly and then to settle down for the remainder of the narrative. Then the admiral told of the pursuit of the strange vessel, how he had met the Vixen and been informed it was the battleship Pelayo and how when it was ultimately run down it proved to be the Austrian cruiser Maria Teresa, which was bound for Santlago to carry away neutrals before the city was attacked by the American orces. Returning from this chase Admiral Schley told of passing the Iowa, when he wae hailed by Captain Evans, who informed him that Admiral Cervera was on board and would liks very much to see him. Admiral Schley said that he then went on board the Iowa, having in the meantime directed his. men not to checr, as he did not think it would be proper to ex- ult over a foe who had fought and behaved so gallantly. “I found the Spanish admiral greatly de- jected,” said the witness. I sald to him I knew ‘he had lost everything, clothing as well as money, and I informed him that my wafd- robe, as well as my purse, as far as that would g0, was at his service.”” Admiral Cervera, the witness said, thanked him for his courtesy, saying he had never met a sailor who was not a gentleman. but declined the proffer, only asking to be al- lowed to send a dispatch to his Government announcing the fate of his squadron. “I told him there would be no objection to that whatever,” sald the witness. ‘‘And that,”” the admiral sald, closing his narrative jmpressively, ‘‘ended the battle of the third day of July, 18%.” wish to add,” he continued, “that I was very much impressed on that day with the fact that the officers and the men who were engaged In that striggle fulfilled in the very highest and In the very noblest degrec the traditions of the American navy.” Admiral Schley next referred to the testi- mony given before the court by Admiral Tay- lor, who during the Santiago campaign, com- marded the battleship Indiana. “‘Admural Taylor,”” he said, ‘has testified here that he raw the Brooklyn pass a mile and a half south of the line that day. Captain Taylor's posi- tion was distant from that of the Brooklyn possibly four miles. b “In the preparation of the Senate executive document, which is before the court, the state- ment is made that the movement of the Brook- Iyn in making the loop separated her 800 yards from the enemy. . Captain Taylor was a mem- ber of the board which made that declaration. His evidence of 300 vards as testified to here Qdoes not agree with that fact. ““Furthermore, the log book of the Iowa for July 3, as prinfed in the report of the Bureau of Navigation, states that the Indiana soon dropped hopelessly behind, so that I did not think Admiral Taylor was in a position to have been cognizant of the fact. I do not think the Brooklyn passed even within her .tactical diameter when she made the loop. When she made that turn I do not think she separated herself beyond 600 yards, because when she turned from the Viscaya her distance as a little less than 1100 yards. After that range was given we had advanced a little, and when she turned around the leading ship of the Spanish fleet, at least the ship of that fleet west of us, was not over 800 yards away. That was my reason for that conclusion. Glory Enough for All The Admiral said he was unable to recall a conversation with Captain McCalla on July 3, when the latter had said to Admiral Schley, according to Captain McCalla’s statement on the witness stand, “That there was glo: enough for all.” ‘Admiral Schley sald he had first seen this sentiment as formulated ac- credited to Senator Hale. ‘‘Senator Hale, he said. ‘‘expressed my feeling at the time, and that feeling I still hold.” Speaking further on this Schley said: “My report had been practically written. I do not think I added any material fact to it, as I wrote it on the way down to Guantanamo. I cannot recollect Captain Me- Calla’s observation at all. In fact, a contro- versy was not thought of at that time.” Here Raynor reminded Admiral Schley that he had stated that at the beginning of the battle the ships charged in accordance with the original plan. ‘‘Now, he asked, ‘‘with whom did that plan originate?" “That was the general order of the com- mander in chief during the time of the block- ade, but that failed because the enemy suc- ceeded really in passing the battle line,” re- plied Admiral Schley. ’ Raynor next asked his client concerning the reported colloquy between himself and Lieu- subject Admiral tenant Commander Hodgson during the Brooklyw's turn on ‘July & “-Did you,” he asked, i “at any time within the he presence of Mr. Hodgson use the wol’?i:lnn‘l? Bll: buted to you at one time by Mr. Hodgson? Responding, the admiral 1d: *‘No, I have not the slightest remembrance or recollection of using any such words. I have so stated to Mr. Hodgson. I think it is a simple matter of recollection with him. Mr. Hodgson Is a very honorable officer and I think the fault lies with his memory rather than otherwise.'’ In response to Raynor, Admiral Schley de- tafled the particulars of "his correspondence with Lieutenant Commander Hodgson regard- ing the publication of this alleged colloquy, saying that because of the criginal publication he had thcught proper to ask Mr. Hodgson for an explanation. ‘‘Mr. Hodgson,”” 'he sald, “wrote me quite a long letter in relation to this matter, containing terms that appeared to me so intemperate, 5o denunciatory of this article that T felt it should not be publishad as it would provoke upon him probably a severe and unnecessary assault. I wrote him then that this was a disposition on the sube. Ject of the propriety or improprieties from his point of view. I also wrote him that this was a_distinct colloquy, the tendency of which he, of course, understood and knew. So that I wanted him to say whether that was trie or not, in his own interesis as well as mine. “I suggested to him that his answer, what- ever he might say, should be short, because at that time he was before a court of inquiry in relation to the matter of the Brounding o(ylhe Brooklyn and he was unusually anxlous. ‘That letter I published. It provoked, of course, a reply tHat led to an investigation, in which Mr. Hellner involved himself, but T never wa asked anything about it. I was not sum. moned before any court or asked to exsiaim the transaction, Then there passed botween us a number of letters, he appiy: a mumber ¢ DPIYIng for coples, Raynor asked if he remembered t; sation on the Broo¥'-n between Hn‘é‘gufi:’“fi;& Captain Cook, to which the latter had testi- fied, when the former called the attention of the captain of the Brooklyn to the Texas and Captain Cook had replied: “'Oh. yes, I see the Texas.” The admiral repifed that he thought he did recall it. aynor here '8an a series to the witness intanded to develon Hofaoms the controversy which he evidently feit: the admiral had not brought out sufficiently. He asked_Admiral Schiey sif he knew anything of an order which went to the men on the Brook- Iyn during the early part of the battle of July 3 to “stand by to_ram,” to which the admiral replied, ‘‘Yes; I directed that order myself because I called the attention of Cap- tain Cock at the time we were standing in to the Spanish ships and said, ‘Look out. They are going to ram you.' There was a distinct attempt on the part of both the Theresa and Viscava to ram.

FELLOW SHEETS HOUT FOR WAR Newspapers Trying to Stir Up Strife in South America. i G Jingo Editors Would Force a Fight Between Chile and Argentine. Special Dispatch to The Cail. VALPARAISO, Oct. 2.—The alarming rumors, periodically started by the Argen- tine jingo newspapers, are declared to be groundless. The Chilean Government an- nounces that ‘it seeks the republic’s in- dustrial development and that it wants peace at any cost. The Chilean budget for 1902 has been re- duced 4 per cent. Half of the reduction has been made by the Minister of War. BUENOS AYRES, Oct. 25.—The Minister of Marine has decided to call into serv- ice the following war vessels: The San Martin, Beigrano, Garibaldi, Pueydron, Nueve de Julio, Patria and Patagonia, be- sides several auxiliary ships. The Tribuna, President Roca's organ, published to-day editorials insisting on the importance of the roads and bridges con- structed by Chile in the disputed terri- tory. In spite of these editorials the Gov- ernment has sent word to the Argentine legations that relations with Chile con- tinue to be cordial. Conflicts With the Police.

Rayncr—While talking about this loop, why aid not the ship turn with helm hard star- board? 3 ~‘Simply for the reason carried us into dangerous attacks, a broadside torpedo attack of the enemy’s vessels. My judgment was that at that stage of the action the Brooklyn ought rot to be sacrificed; that, so far as it might affect the result to individuals, I thought was a consideration that should be turned aside for the higher and more important one—the interests of the country she was there to sub- serve.” As to the uncoupling of the engines Admiral Schley testified that he thought they were un- coupled by a standing order of the commander in chief. At the same time he said he be- lleved the uncoupling was wise, both because it would keep down the heat below decks, 4t would have oximlty to torpedo | which was well nigh insufferable for the men as it was, and also on account of the desirabil- ity of economizing coal. Raynor then asked Admiral Schley if he had asked Admiral Sampson if there were any signals with the insurgents. “1 did,” he replied, “‘but the admiral said he knew of none.” Raynor then called the attention of Admiral Schley to the following dispatch, dated Key West, Fla., May 21, 18, to the Secretary of the Navy: “Schley has been ordered to_Santiago de Cuba. SAMPSON."" Raynor asked if he had ever been ordered to Santiago before the dispatch of May which it had been stated he did not receive until June 10, to which the admiral replied: ‘‘No, except under order No. 8, leaving the matter to my discretion.’” ‘“There is nothing then between order No. § and_the dispatch I have given?’ “No, nothing.” Here Raynor reminded the witness that there had been more or less discussion of the possi- bility of the escape of the Spanish squadron through the blockading line at either Cien- fuegos or Santiago without being detected, and requested from the admiral an expression on the subject. Responding, Admiral Schley do not belleve that that could have been possible, simply because the —squadron, from the position which it occupied before these ports, always would have had that squadron, had it attempted to escape, under its gun fire, I had no trouble in seeing the beach %0 per cent of the time, and I looked at it with every care.”” Here Raynor asked a number of questions concerning interviews with Captains Cotton and Wise and other officers, intended to bring out information to make perfect the record. Admiral Schley also reviewed the testimony of Lieutenant Wood, Lieutenant Hood and Cap- tain McCalla. The court then adjourned until Monday morn- ing at 11 o'clock. ——————ee g NEW ADVERTIGEMENTS. Parasites Cause All Hair Troubles. Nine-tenths of the diseases of the scalp and hair are caused by parasite germs. The importance of this discovery by Pro- fessor Unna of the Charity Hospital, Hamburg, Germany, cannot be overesti- mated. It explains why ordinary hair preparations, even of the most éxpensive character, fail to cure dandruff; because they do not and they cannot kill the dan- druft germ. The only hair preparation in the world that positively destroys the dandruff parasites that burrow up the scalp into scales called scurf, or dandruff, is Newbro’s Herpicide. In addition to its destroying the dandruff germ Herpicide is also a delightful hair dressing, making the hair glossy and soft as silk. BRADFORD QUICKSILVER MINE SAN BENITO CO.
