The me res purulent of the Aasoclat ed Press spoke to Governor Bwetteu ham today regarding the Darla Inri dent. The governor said he had not Invited Rear Admiral Duvla to laud sallora. Asked If he endorsed the action taken by Rear Admiral Davia, thi governor replied: "That is n matter between me and Rear Admiral Darla, to whom i must refer you." The governor said hit reference in hia letter to Rear Admiral Davis to a tramp pillaging the hnua of a New York millionaire was merely n Jocu lar parallel. A meeting of the relief committee was held here today on the call of the governor, to discover the precise conditions attending the difference between the governor and the admiral. At the close of this meeting, and after hgviag read Governor Rvettenham's letter to Rear Admiral Davlx, moat Rev. Dr. Enos Nutlall, archbishop of Jamaica, sought the governor to talk the matter over with him, aaylng that If he found the conditions warranted he would send a personal explanatory cablegram to President Roosevelt. The archbishop waa unable to see the governor, owing to the latter's absence at headquarters: he will see him tomorrow. Archblahop's View a Archbishop Nuttall told the Associated Press correspondent he greatly regretted that any action had been taken that might make the Jamaicans appear ungrateful for the generous aid of the United States, while as matter of fart they welcomed It warmly. He said he approved the governor's desire to endeavor to Inspire the with the sentiment of self-helbut that this .wns no excuse for thr rejection of American aid. There yet remains much to be done to relieve the suffering iff the people, to provide shelter for them and to prepare for the tack of rebuilding the city, the archbishop continued, in all of which American aid would have been of great assistance." The archbishop deprecated the idea that Governor 8wettenham'a action i would reeult in national animosity. "It waa merely a result of the dictatorial character of the governor," he said. "Hill imperious manner, frequent abuse of subordinates, and discourtesy to eltixens have earned him great unpopularity, although otherwise he la regarded as a comparatively conscientious official. There la much Indignation expressed here at Governor Swettenham's action In docking the pay of government clerk who absented themselves from duty to nurse sick or dying relative. Last Saturday the governor suspended the free service of trains for the transportation of refugees into the country, but at the urgent request of Archbishop Nuttall he consented to continue this free service for one g ves-erda- y WARMER WED- THURSDAY FAIR.
