TVashinotok, Feb. 11. -Secretary Long baa sent to the Senate an ex naustive report' in reply to the res- olution recently passed x. by that body calling upon the navy depart ment for all records in its posses sion upon which the nominations of Admirals Sampson and Schley to their present grades were based. This resolution was passed in exec utive session. Secretary Long goes into the naval history of the Span ish war. at great length, citing or ders, movements and all the details which preceded the battle of July 3. In summing up these facts and citing the reasons for the advance ment of Schley and Sampson, he says : . 7 ' "The advancement of Admiral Sampson was proposed in recogni tion of his services in the execu tion of l)is duties as commander-in-chief of all our. ships engaged in the campaign in the West In dies; for; the supervision of all its details, wherever distributed for the blockade of the island of Cuba; for the conveying and landing of the army and co-operation with its movements and fori the pursuit, blockade and destruction of the Spanish fleet, which destruction, on the 3d of July, by our fleet un der hie command, was the consum mation of his orders and prepara tions beginning on the 1st day of June, In this connection the dis patch of Commodore Schley, dated July 10, is a pertinent, fact. "The advancement of Commo dore Schley was proposed in recog nition of his service as next in command in rank at the victory of Santiago. Where so much was achieved in this cutminating battle, and where his ship was such a con spicuous force in the fight, his con duct while in independent com mand prior to June 1, the report of which has been given above and which, by reason of. its unsteadi ness in purpose and failure to obey orders, did not meet with the ap proval of the president, the depart ment was not permitted to stand in the way of the nomination for pro motion to a higher grade for the part he took in that final triumph. In this connection, a pertinent fact is the letter of Admiral Sampson, in which, while not overlooking Commodore Schley's reprehensible conduct, as above referred to he asjft that ample justice be done him for his part in the action of July 3. - "It is just to both these of ficers to say that each of them was selected for his command in the war without solicitation or suggestion on the part of -himself or of any one in his behalf. The head of the department, un der the approval of the President, is responsible for these selections, which were made in the exigencies Of the war and in the exercise of the department's' discretion in the assignment of officers, which is au thorized by law. This discretion was exercised solely with a view to the best interests of the public ser vice, whether wisely or not results show." . ' , : ' ' : Affuinaldo May Lead. Manila, Feb. 13 The Filipinos seem to have selected Malabon as a base of operations for an encount er with the Americans, as they are concentrating a considerable force there.; The town, is about, ten miles north of Manila. s Many small bodies of natives are straggling in from the right, and others are arriving from the north and the interior provinces. ; Aguinaldo is reported to have established his headquarters at Malabon for the purpose of rally ing his forces for a decisive blow. Some soldiers belonging to the Fourteenth Infantry have un earthed several tons of Spanish shells, evidently stolen from the ar senal at Cavite and hidden by the natives in the vicinity of Parana que. Fifteen cartloads of shelU have been brought in here. The troops also found a modern naval gun and part of its mount, which had been stolen by natives from one of the sunken Spanish war ships. The delegates Southern states, boards of health from the various representing the and commercial bodies, met in Atlanta last Thurs day to take precautionary meas ures against yellow fever.

Democratic senators have not lessened their opposition to the Hull army bill on account of Mr. McKinley's threats to call an ex tra session of the next congress if the bill is not passed by the sen ate. They are perfectly willing that the present regular army of 62,000 men shall be continued for one year from next July, in order that we may have whatever troops that' may be needed while we tem porarily control the Philippines and Cuba, but they will go no further in helping Mr. McKinley push along his imperialistic pro gram. I ! I - - . . ' Blanketed in the Pillory. Wilmington, Del., Feb. 11. With the thermometer standing at zero, three culprits were placed in the pillory for an hour at the New Castle jail yard this morning.

Ga whose husband painted the handsome life- size likeness of the lamented Vance which occupies a prominent position in the nail of the Honse of Bepresen tativesarrived in the. city yesterday. Mrs. Gerry has a claim against the State, and she tells an interesting, though sad story in connection with it. Members of the Legislature of 1897 will remember that Mrs. Gerry brought the painting of Vance here and offered it to the Legislature for $2.5UO. Bealizing that she could not secure that amount from the 8tate, she interested several public-spirited citi zens. Tfcey agreed to pay $1,500 to ward securing the painting. A bill allowing Mrs. Gerry $1,000 for the painting was then introduced in the House. It managed to get through one or two readings, but it was held up and the appropriation cut down to $500. Now Mrs. Gerry declares that the citizens who promised to contribute $1,500 toward the purchase of the painting have declined to mace good their promise, and that she has only received $500 given by the State. Since she was here last her husband has died, and now she will ask the Legislature to come to her relief. Raleigh Post. Bedford's Anti-Pain Plasters Guaranteed to relieve weak back. Sold by Jno. B.
