GladstOne's Eloquence.

His persuasive witchery of eloquence
will be poorly understood by generations
to come, says The Atlantic. 1t is not
found in the word, the phrase, the argu-
ment or the thought. 1t came for the
most part from the spirit that warmed
the breath of the man, sounded in his
voice, looked out of his eyes. 1t was
personal to him, and largely part of, the
moral qualities that seemed to be his
greater distinction. No man of his day
has had such power of persuasion as he.
1t may not be too bold to say that no
man of any time has surpassed him in
that power. Yet he was never logically
strong. His argumcntative writings, the
most carefully and deliberately com
posed, show defects of reasoning that
are marked. From controversy with an
antagonist like Professor Huxley he was
sure to como with wounds. Yet his
masterful influence over minds of every
class is a certain fact. 1t was once said
by somebody that Gladstone could per-
suade anybody to anything-himself
included" and the epigram carries no
doubt a significant truth.

OFF FOR PORTO RICO.
Troops at Chickamauga Moving to the
Front Today.

Troops at Chickamauga Moving to the
Front Today.
Chickamauga, July q. The move
ment Of troops from Camp Thomas for
Porto Rico will begin at once. The
various commands included in the first
order to move are busy packing up and
loading their effects. They Will nave
everything finished soon and can get
out at an early hour without delay.
Railroads have trains in readiness anu
have things so arranged that they can
put the troops through to Newport
News in very short time.
The commands which are to go are
the Second brigade of the First dlVl-
sion, First corps, consisting OF the
Fourth Pennsylvania, Fourth ONO ana
Third Illinois, under command OF Brig
adler General Hams; light batteries q
of Pennsylvania, A of Illinois and the
Twenty-seventh Indiana battery; the
signal corps, under Major Glassford'
the reserve hospital corps, under Major
L. s. Smith, and the reserve ambulance
corps. with SO ambulances, under Major
Frank Boyd
Major General Brooke was at MS
ing in consultation with his officers, ar
ranging plans for the departure to Por-
to Rico. He. declined interviews on the
movement of troops or any other sub
ject. Although the orders have not yet
been issued, it is believed safe to say
that the Third brigade, First DIVISION,
First corps and the Second division of
the First corps will begin moving
Thursday or Friday. These commands
are composed as follows:
Third brigade, First divislon-F'irst
Kentucky, Fifth Illinois and Third Ken
lucky.
First brigade, Second division-One
Hundred and Sixtieth Indiana Thirty
first Michigan and First West Virginia.
Second brigade-Sixth Ohio, One
Hundred and Fifty-eighth Indiana and
Second Ohio.
Third brigade-Fourteenth Minnesota,
First Pennsylvania and First Georgia.
General Poland, commander of the
Second division of the First corps, has
been i'll for the past few days, but hopes
to be out in day or two. He will ac-
company his division to the front.
The telephone system at the park has
been abandoned, and the army officials
are depending entirely upon the tele-
graph, the signal corps having perfect
ed an excellent system, with an office
at each of the division headquarters.
The system gives General Brooke's
headquarters direct connection with the
government at Washington.

Parre,ja Won't Surrender.

Madrid, July 21.-General Parreja, the
Spanish commander at Guantanamo,
refuses to be included in the "capitula-
tom of Santiago de Cuba. According
to Spanish military law, a commander
can surrender the troops which he per-
sonally commands, but he cannot oblige
other commanders at distant points,
even though under his authority, to fol-
low suit. Consequently it is held here
that the "capitulati "a only comprises
about 1000 troops actually at Santiago.

The Army and Macy Journal thus intro
duces to the public an uunoticed candidate
for fame:
The absolute, real, undaunted hero Of
his war is not Admiral Dewey, sinking all
of the Spanish fleet at Manila, nor Hobson
sinking portion of the American fleet at
santiago, nor Shafter, driving out the feet
of Cervera and capturing an army double
that of his own, nor Sampson and his sub
ordinates, sending Cervera to destruction
nor twenty others we could name, but it is
Ensign Curtin, landing at the Port of Ponce
and with inimitable cheek sending his ulti-
matum to the msnder of the Spanish
forces at Ponce by telephone OF all the
astonishing incidents of this war nothing
for novelty approaches this, and Mr. Curtin
should go down 10 history as the originator
of the Hello method or reaching mill
tary results. The illimitable gall of this
youth deserves to be crystalized in history
The Army and Macy Journal, which expects
to chronicle the official reports of the battle
of Armageddon, hardly hopes TO record any
thing hereafter which, for pure impudence,
will exceed this occurrence. The only
thing which could rival it would be for
another Ensign to send district messenger
boy to Sagasta with an ultimatum to be
answered in fifteen minutes.

The st. Louis Republic, in the following
sentences, tells some tales out of school and
gives some of the reasons why Roosevelt
left the Navy Department and why Alger
published his private letter. II says:
1t is doubtful that any one 10 the Cabinet
was ignorant of the intention (of Secretary
Alger) to issue and publish the reprimand,
or had any objection to it. In all the un-
savory reports OF jobbery in regard to deals
made for yachts and tugs at exorbitant
prices for the auxiliary navy, Roosevelt's
name has b, en- associated with protests and
dlsappr0vaL Congressman have talked in
hotel Hobbies with great freedom of con-
tracts in which Hanna, Elkins and other
Republican leaders were interested, and
have quoted Roosevelt as critlcising and
opposing such transactions
1t has been stated time and again that
the main cause of his Roosevelt,s) depar-
ture from the Navy Department was bis
own disapproval of methods and perform :
ances, and the dissatisfaction of Republican
leaders with Roosevelt for not being
pleased
There were old scores of this kind to
settle, and when the opportunity came to
crafty Hanna and Elkins by humiIiatiDg
Roosevelt, as well as to serve Plat and
Bliss 10 New Pork politics, Secretary Alger
lent himself and his Office to the work.
The matter has not been passed over with
an hours discussion. Criticism OF Roose-
velt's reference to the volunteers has set
in motion discussion of Algef,s manage
ment of the War Department Nearly
avery private who has returned from The
front or who comes to Washington from
any of the adjacent camps has new tale
of suffering or neglect, due to the lack of
organization and preparation in some
division of the War Department.
