YEOMAN OF THE TEXAS.
He Spent Yesterday in This City as
the Guest of John Merriman, OF
Capouse Avenue.

Louis Merriman, a yeoman on the
battleship Texas. spent yesterday in
the city as the guest Of his brother,
John Merriman, of Capouse avenue,
Green Ridge. The Texas is now in the
Brooklyn navy yard, having rents in
her fixed up which were made during
the engagement off Santiago on July
., when Cervera's fleet was destroyed.
Mr.. Merriman obtained a short fur
Tough and came on here to visit his
brother. He arrived in this city sat
urday evening at o'clock and left last
night for New York. He must report
on board the Texas at s o'clock this
morning.
During the great battle he was at
his station in the engine room, down
in the hold of the ship, and only got
a glimpse of the fight when he was al
lowed to go on deck for few minutes.
The principal damage sustained by the
Texas was wrought by a shell that
struck the ash hoist and exploded
The effect of this was keenly felt in
the boiler and engine rooms and most
of the men who were toiling down
there making it possible for the Texas
to give the fleeing Spanish cruisers a
spirited chase, thought the time for
the closing of their earthly accounts
had come. 1t seemed as if hole had
been punched in the side of the ves-
sci below the water line.
Mr.. Merrman presented his brother
with pieces of the shell that wrought
such havoc in the ash hoist and also
with fragments of the shell that struck
te Texas during the bombardment Of
the forts at Santiago and killed one of
the seamen, besides doing good deal
of damage to the interior of the ship.
The way portions of this shell, which
was a small one, cut through iron and
steel was an impressive demonstration
of the terribly destructive power of
modern ammunition.
