What he Said About Granny Sampson, et al. Denver, Col. Sept. 22.—Chap lain J. P. Mclntyre, of the bat tleship Oregon, has been strick en with nervous prostration, and the physician who is attending him says that he may be confin ed to his bed for some time. It is probable that the court martial which has been ordered to convene in Denver next week for the trial of Chaplain Mclntyre on the charge of hav,- ing unfairly criticised the action of Admiral Sampson and Capt. Evans in the Santiago naval battle will oe obliged to post pone proceedings for several weeks on account of the chap lain’s illness. Mr. Mclntyre says he has not been officially notified of the nature of the charges against him or of the date of his trial, and this has seemed to worry him consider ably. He is staying at the house of Attorney Thomas J. Dunn, a friend in this city. * ' * '1 J THE facts given out. Washington, Sept. 22.—The attention of Judge Advocate General Lemly being directed to the complaint of Chaplain Mc- Intyre that he had not been in formed of the charges upon which he is to be tried by court martial at Denver ou the 26th instant, the officer very prompt ly furnished the papers in the case for publication, The chaplain is to be tried upon three charges, all growing out of a lecture delivered by him in thj Trinity Methodist Epis copal church, Denver, Col., on August Bth last referring to the battle of July 3rd. The first charge is “scandal ous conduct tending to the de struction of good morals.’’There are three specifications under this charge, in brief that he re ferred to Admiral Sampson as reporting himself within four miles of the Colon when she I struck her colors in order to get his share of prize money. Second, he charged that on the chase after the Colon the Oregon met the lowa goi >g to the rear, and that “Fighting Bob” took the lowa to the rear and kept her there during the battle. Third, that Eastern made ships failed to come up to ex pectations because the builders received thoir orders through political pull and “did not care how they cheated the govern ment.” The second charge is “conduct to the prejudice of good order and discipline.” It recites the three specifications of the first charge with an additional one based on the chaplain’s “public and contemutuous” reference to Capt. Evans as “Fighting Bob.” The third charge is “conduct unbecoming an officer of the navy” and recites the same jpecifications. i UNHAM &SONS ■ r ‘ ■ <>‘ < 1 SENSATIONAL SO OF SAILORS' fl - . n * WE have just ooughtthe entire stock or Lidias and Mtßses'Finel Sai’ois of one of the Largest Millinery houses of New*yo r k | and now place them on sale at a price that is certainly mestj remarkable.
