tenant commander he will have been given
a greater reward than was ever known
in our naval history. Gushing got fifty
six numbers and gained one year and nine
months time in his record, yet Lieut. HOB
SON. it is calculated, would be given, II
made a naval commander, 3H numbers and
will gain twenty years in time. He will
become senior officer of the navy in a
course of about fifteen years, and, owing TO
his youth, will retain that place no less
than twenty years, something absolutely
without precedent in the American navy.
These facts are being adduced by naval
officers who are desrous of finding some
other means of rewarding our naval he
roes. which, while thoroughly satisfactory
to them and their friends will work no in
justice to others.
As an instance of how the present prac-
tice works the officers point to the fact
that for his splendid achievement at Ma
Mia, Admiral Dewey gained only ten num-
bers while, astounding as it may seem, in
stead of a reward for his excellent man
agement and seamanship in bringing the
great battleship Oregon successfully
through one of the most remarkable
cruises on record, Capt. Clark actually lost
three numbers, through the promotion,
over his head, of officers engaged in the
battle of Manila bay.
Capt. Sigsbee is cited also as case In
point. having suffered a loss of several
number. representing a year of two of ma
val service through the Manila rewards.

Time and sea and weather were propi-
tious for the army of invasion. The navy
and the army co-operated splendidiy, and
as the big warships closed in on the shore
to pave the way for the approach of the
transports, then went back again. three
| cheers for the navy went up from 0.O0O
throats on the troopships and three cheers
for the army rose from ship after ship,
as the troopships moved in to take their
share in the hazardous game.
It was war, and 1t was magnificent.
The Cuban insurgents, too. bore their
share in the enterprise honorably and well
Five thousand Of them, in mountain fast
nesses and dark thickets of ravines, lay
all last night on their guns watching every
road and mountain path leading from San
tlago de Cuba to Guantanamo. A thous-
and of them were within sight of sBaiquiri
making the approaching of the spaniards
under cover of the darkness an impossi-
bility.
At O'Clock this morning, as the Asso-
ciated Press dispatch boat approached
Baiquiri, the entire Island Of Cuba seem.
cd wrapped in soft mist, like that of dog
days in northern latitudes. Distant OBJ
jects looked dim, but it was seen that
many of the troopships that had been iy-
ing several miles in the offlng had drawn
in toward shore, while three or four war
ships lay menaoingly near the harbor ap-
proach.
All around the transports steam
launches and small boats were bobblne
like corks, the first indication of the true
object of the undertaking ahead.
An hour later the sun was rising in the
eastern sky, touching the mountain tops
with patches of light green and revealing
the great semi-circle OF troop ships. some
close to the coast line, others q mile dis
tant with their decks crowded with eager
eXpectant men, impatient to begin the
great movement Of destiny, to make new
chapter in the history Of America the first
invasion by our army of foreign country
in half a century.
AS the dispatch boat of the Associated
Press ran closer In near where the. Nreu,

strong guns trained on Baiquiri. tonpues
of lurid flame and black smoke were seen
rising from the town, the inevitable eonee-
aquence Of war and sure sign that the
Spaniards had gone, leaving ruin behind
them.
The captain of the New Orleans shouted
the news to the dispatch boat, adding:
you had better keep off a little You are
in range. They have a rifle on the hill en-
the eastern side Of Baiquiri."
There is a steep, rocky hill known as
Punta Baiquiri, rising almost perpendicu-
larly at the place indicated It is a verita
bic Gibraltar in possibilities of defense.
From the staff at its summit the Spanish
flag was dehantly floating al sunset last
night; but lt was gone this morning and
with 1t the small Spanish guard which had
maintained a signal station there.
Between nishtfall and dawn the Span
iards had taken alarm and fed from the
place, firing the town as they left.
