Tho Schley case is ended except for
tho arguments of the opposing
ionueel and the decision of the
court Whether the latter will ac-
quit Schley on all counts or will
criticise certain of his actions on
the ground that they were erroro of
judgment cannot be told these bo
lngquectionson which only exports
can pass Whatever the Court may
decide as to this it is certain that
the inquiry has shown conclusitrly
thut the baltln of Saitiago was won
iiy tho Brooklyn nnd the Oregon
txclusivoly and not by the Ameri
can fleet For tho past three years
the oIlicerB of the ships which were
not in tho fight have held the center
of the stage while those who were
have kept silent the lestyt has
been an altogether false conception
of the battle whether the Navy
Department has fostered thisnils
conception for its own purposes
does not matter Tho actual facts
obtained by cross examination and
the boiling down process show that
the Maria Teresa alone was destroy-
ed by the fleet j the other three ves-
sels escaped and started to run
This was tho upshot of Sampsons
plan Then Schleys plan came
into operation anduuder it he and
the Oregon chased down and de-
stroyed tho other three vessels
This is an established fact and no
errors of judgment if any be found
by the Court can obscure it
President Koosevelt has explained
his action in inviting Booker Wash
ington to dinner to several personal
friondi not as an explanation but
merely casually in conversation
He says that he had no idea of the
storm of criticism that his action
would provoke in f fctthesubject
neveroccurred to hjm aBpou call-
ing for a comment atal This was
by no means the Qrst time on which
he had eaten witn a negro On the
plains in the mountains jn his
own home and the Governors
mansion in New York he had asked
others to dine with him in a matter
of course way not caring as to the
color of his guests skin o long as
otherwise ho was allright So on
this occasion ho wanted to talk
to Professor Wadiington and in-
vited him as the easiest way of
bringing about a quiet talk He
had no idea of raising the negro ai
a race or pf making an issue before
tho country or anything of the kind
At the same time Mr Roosevelt is
careful to state that if ht bad known
all that the invitation would bring
forth he should nevertheless have
invited Professor Washington This
is the explanation whether it con-
dones or aggravates tho original
oQ ense is a question for the con-
sideration of the South
Tho failure of the last republican
Congress to reduce taxes to a safe
degree has anain forced Secretary
Gago to go into the market and
offer to buy United States bonds
before they are due at a heavy
premium This will involve a gift
tu the bond holders of the country
of many million dollars in tho ag-
gregate a sum which should never
have been taken from tbepockets
of tile people and never would have
been if tho republican party had
not been so anxious to maintain
the rates in orderto protect the
trusts and enable them to make an
unearned protit Secretary Gage
has been forced to this by thiau
cumulations in the treasury tb > 8e

the favored banks having been sup-
plied with free funds asfar as is
consistent With safety the only
present wayof reducing theamount
in the treasury by purchasing
bonds Congress can of courso
leduce taxationwhen it meets but
therens no Indication that it will
do so On the contrary republican
members whojiave been interview-
ed on tho queitiifn favor spending
money broadcast instead of etoj
ping the machinery that takes it
from its proper owners
