Cadet William Stanhope Case, of the

Thomas Knowles, U. S. N, the man who
gained worldwide fame by lashing Ad-

flagship Hartford at the battle of Mo-

WAR "REMINISCENCES.
GOLD RosEY."
Taps Are Sounded for the Last of
the Unions Great War
Generals.

An Immense number of veterans in
the west will hear with regret of the
death of Gen. w. S. Rosecrans, the last
of the union commanders at the great
battles of the war. Rosecrans was pop
ular with his troops, though as mill
tary man falling short of the first rank
of leaders. Yet he was good organizer
of armies and inspired them with high
degree of confidence. 1t may be said
of him, with sincere esteem, that he
served his country faithfully. He was n
man of animated appearance, brisk in
his ways, approachable and good-hu-
mored, and the nickname given him by
his soldiers expressed an admiring
sense of fellowship. BY nature Rose
Grams yas n military optimist, and thia
was his main defect as commander.
1t happened that in the two important
battles of Stones river and Chicka-
mauga he was pitted against deeper
tactician than himself, though far
less popular general. The saturnine
Bragg was dangerous antagonist for
a man of Rosecrans' characteristics,
and yet it must be remarked that their

weather tell of trying experience a
signalman had at the battle of Chick
amauga. He was stationed nearly at
the top of high tree. The union line
vt that point was suddenly driven back,
quickly followed by the victorious and
yelling confederates. They did not dis
cover the signalman. When they had
passed he signaled a report to the COM
mander of what had happened and
asked for orders. Remain where yo7
are until dark, and then try to get into
our lines" was the answer. When it
was dark he slid out of the tree and
wandered about until morning, when
he brought up near Gen. Thomas head

pleasant and dignified when there was
no fighting, it was as hazardous and al
times more SO than any other branch

1t is said of Bishop Quintard, of Ten

to overhear the general berating some

"Why," roared the general with

POOR OPINION OF CUBANS
Shafter Declares Them Unfit
for Self-GOVernment.
SEES MORE TROUBLE AHEAD
Announces as His Belief That We Haze
Simply Shifted Spain's War
Upon Ourselves.

SAVANNAH, Ga, Dec 2O.-At the cod
lation by the Third Georgia regiment to
General Shafter, Postmaster General
Smith and the newspaper correspondents
General Shafter had some interesting
things to say about Cuba and the Gu
bans. He did not make speech, but in
a conversational way expressed himself,
his remaks being nominally addressed to
Colonel Berner of the Georgians, al
they were intended for the whole as4
sembly.
"It seems to me-" said General Shat
ter, "that a great many people have
erroneous ideas about our relations with
the Cubans. In my opinion we have
taken Spain's war upon ourselves. We
shall probably hear a great deal more
about the insurgents"
GLOW about self-government for tbs
Cubans?'' General Shafter was asked.
"Self-government!'' the general re-
peated. "Why, those people are nc
more fitted for self-government thar
gunpowder is for hell"
In the same line General Shafter went
on to tell why the United States, in his
opinion, would be obliged to remain il
/ the island for some time and govern the
territory by military force.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-It is now

early in January. Already there is talk
Of the possibility Of disposing of the
treaty during the present session and
the impression favorable to the result is
growing. A few senators manifested a
disposition to debate the subject at
length and some expressed undivided
opposition, but the feeling is strong
against an extra session and in favor of
the postponement of the settlement Of
the disposition of the Philippines after
they come into our possession that it
now seems that even the minority will
consent to the treaty's ratification with
out material delay.

little interest is manifest among sena-

SOUTHAMPTON, Eng, Dec. 20.-To the
interviewers who besieged the Ameri-
can peace commissioners before they
sailed for New York on board the Amer
lean line steamer st. Louis, the commits
sioners said they could not discuss the
terms Of the treaty of peace with Spain.
Whitelaw Reid and Judge Day, were
much interested in the interview of the
Manila correspondent with Rear Ad-
miral Dewey, but they would not dis
cuss either that matter or the protest
made by Agoncillo, the representative
Of Aguinaldo. Judge Day said the
treaty of peace would probably be de-
livered to President Mckinley on Dec.
25, but, he added, it was impossible to
say whether it would be presented tc
the present senate or to that which
comes into Office March 4, next. This.
the judge added, is matter which the
president will decide.
