The dispatch from Admiral Dewey
caused much excitement in naval circles
as soon as its contents became
known. It was received late in the
ilny- and considerable delay was caused
by the blindness of some of the cipher
words.
It was impossible to completely de- i
cipher it, and the asterisks indicate i
the unintelligible words. i
Cllmoro Well Known. i
Lieutenant J. C. Gilmore, the officer t
eferred to as captured, is well known t
it Washington, having been stationed i
hero for some time. His wife aud ' 1
umily live there. Ho was boru in i
Philadelphia July 10, and was t
tppointed a naval cadet from Arizona t
n September, 1871. He reached his ?
resent grado of lieutenant in 1801. c
lis main service lias been on the i
tlouongali la. Marion. Bancroft. Vos- r
Lvius ami Mnchias, besides considera- i
tie service on boards. s
Just a year ago lie reported to tlie f
it. Paul, then commissioned as an
iiixiliary cruiser, and served on that *
essel,under Captuin Sigsbee,throughtut
the war. On January 14th last he '
vatt ordered to the hospital ship Soace,
and on arrival there was assigned
>y Admiral Dewey to the Yorktown. '
The capture of the Yorktown's men (
,vas discussed with much feeling in '
nival circles. The misfortune was 1
'elt with added keenness, as the navy l
ias prilled itself thus far on immunity 1
Tom reverses.
The admiral's dispatch was the first 1
knowledge the department had that
lie Yorktown had gone on this special 1
nission to relieve the Spanish garrison
at Baler. That the capture should
uive been" effected while tlie Ameri- *
an forces were on a mission of mercy 1
toward the Spaniards rather than in '
lie prosecution of a campaign led to
lie belief that Spain would have no 1
further ground for questioning the 1
;p>od faith with which the Americans
acre seeking to relieve the condition
jf the Spanish prisoners.
Anxiety Anions Oltlclalii.
Although the dispatch gave no indication
that Tiieutciiaut (tilmore and |
lii.s men had lost their lives, great
uixiely was aroused hy the mystery
uirrouuding their fate while in the ^
liands of an uncivilized enemy.
This is the first capture of any
Ymericans, consequent ly it is unknown |
liow the insurgents will treat our men. j
If civilized methods were pursued, an
xchange would lie quickly effected, as j
Teueral Otis has a large nuniher of |
Kilipino prisoners, hut the insurgents
iave hecn averse thus far to exchangng
Spanish prisoncis, imd this raiseX j
i question as to what tlidy will do with (
he Yoiktown men.
The purpose of the ndnr'nistrntion is
o spare no efforts to secure the speedy i
el ease of our men.

For Llfr
John Pendley was placed on trial at j
\tlauta Tuesday for the confessed 1
litirder of Policeman Ponder. The
aso attracted considerable interest
iud a large crowd.
The jury returned a verdict of guilty,
with a recommendation of life iniiirisonmeut,
and the prisoner was seuenced
l>y Judge Candler to spend the j
eiuaiuder of his days in the peniteuiary.
V??r hv<i liitnrn the iurnrs had dis- I
ussed tho facts as shown by the evidence,
itiul finally determined that
though Pouder had beeu killed by i
I'endley, there were circumstances in
the case which warranted them in defining
to enforce the death ponalty.
f?? passing senteuce the judge said ;
the jwvy'g verdict was warranted by
the evidence, lie raid Peudley had
no one to blame but himself for the
position in which lie now found himself.
He had of his own accord niado
confession of guilt, and he did not
deny having made the confession.
That confession was corroborated by
many circumstances which authorized
tho jury to accept it.

PKOUHAM FOR COMMISSIONERS.
THEY WILL G0T0SAM0A TOGETHER
IleproaeutHti ve* of Three Government*
Are Kmpowereil to Deal With the
Hit 11 At Ion hh 1 hey Find It.
A Washington special says: After
hearing from the British and German
embassies Friday morning the state
department was enabled to announce
positively and Anally tbat the three
parties to the Berlin treaty hail agreed
upon the instructions to bo given
their Saiuuan commissioners, and that
it was certain that the commission
would leave Ban Francisco on the 25th
iustant for Samoa on the Badger.
The instructions to the commissioners
are identical, tho three governments
having accepted a form which
compromises tho differences that have
existed up to this poiut.
The commission is empowered to
deal with the situation as it Auds it in
the Snmonu islands upon its arrival.
This applies to acts necessary to place
the affairs of the islauds in a peacetul
and satisfactory condition for the time
being. Whatever the commission does
in this direction is understood to be
of a temporary character and subject
to the approval of the three powers.
As to tho merits of the bitter controversy
between the representatives of
the different powers on the island
which led up to tho unfortunate outbreak
of April 1st, the commissioners
are expected to make a thorough and
impartial investigation and report the
results to their respective governments.
The latter, will by ordinary diplomatic
exchange, apply any corrections that
seem to be necessary.
The commissioners will huve no
power to alter the treaty of Berlin.
They mey make recommendations to
that end, and where they are unanimous,
it is probable that their recommendations
may be accepted for
changes in the treaty.
At the British and German embassies
tho Samoau commission is considered
settled beyond further question
and all attention is now being given
to the departure of the commissioners.
Tim ? i?.. v ...
a iic mci iiuiii uuum^nuviui , it. ? un
Ilollehen, called Fri?lay on Secretary
Hay and coiumunioated an official dispatch
from the Berlin foreign office,
saying definitely and positively that
the commission matter had been settled,
ami that the commissioners
should leave at the earliest possible
moment. It is understood that the
German communication removes all
question of doubt by reciting the text
of the note delivered oil Wednesday
by the British ambassador at Berlin to
Baron Von Buolow, the German minister
of foreign affairs.
Baron Bternburg has received his
instructions from Berlin. It is expected
that the foreign office will send
supplementary insti actions to Ban
Francisco so as to reach him before he
sails. Mr. Elliot, the British commissiouer,
lias received preliminary instructions
concerning matters of detail.
The main instructions are to
leave at once, but by mail if sufficient
time is permitted.
There will be no joint meeting of
the high commission in Washington,
and the members of the commission
who are in the city say there is positively
no warrant for statements that
any advance decision or line of action
will be taken.

During the trial of Mrs. Anna
George at Canton, O., Friday, numerous
threats by Mrs. George against the
life of George D. Haxton were testified
to by witnesses. Many of the statements
were coupled with Mrs. George's
story of the alleged wrongs to her at
Buxton's hands which she told the witnesses
in connection with her threats.
All was not smooth sailing for the
state Friday. The prosecution had
expected to identify n chemical unnly- <

was due to powder smoke. The
testimony was ruled out. The witness
