change of policy, the object of which was
to impress Russia with the advisability of

asked permanently to respect the integrity
of this sphere, it declined to give any guar

plain indication of his plan of action, 1T

Plenty of Supplies at Santiago.


There was not only an abundance of
supplies at Santiago, but the Grand Ouch
esse, which reached New York yesterday
has now in her hold 1000 tons of supplies
that were sent to Santiago and never un-
loaded. And yet there is an abundance.
There is not in the War Department
any part Of it, nor has there been received
by the President, "a single complaint from
any officer in the regular or volunteer army
or from any enlisted man alleging a def
cheney of commissary. All the complaints
come from outside sources. Now, to as
sumo that there was a dearth of commits
sary stores is to assume that every gen.
erai, colonel, major captain and lieutenant
of the regular and volunteer army has
failed to do his duty, for if there was a
deficiency of any of the articles allowed
by law and provided by the government it
would be his duty. to make proper com
plant. To suppose that they would all be
guilty of this neglect is too absurd to be
thought of.
THE charge made by General Wheeler
at Montauk Point that large quantity of
perishab!e provisions like oranges, etc,
has been on the cars there for several days
is without foundation. / investigated that
charge Immediately and received a tele-

Inissary at Montauk Point stating that ali
the supplies mentioned by General Wheeler
have been unloaded and used. None of

THE WASTE OF WAR.

A shell thrown from 24-ton quick
firing gun rushes through the air at
the velocity of 1900 feet per second,
striking its object with a force equal
to that of 1920 tons falling one foot.
And yet, comparatively speaking,
they are very harmless. Thus dur
ing the one-day bombardment of
Alexandria by the British fleet of
twelve ships, lasting from a. IN. to
4:30 p. m, no less than 1866 shells
were thrown into the town, yet no
more than 500 Egyptians were killed
that is, it took, roughly speaking,
six shells to kill one man.
Again, during the Franco-German
war, the Germans threw 100000 shells
into Belfort, only killing sixty
Frenchmen, or 500 shells to kill one
Frenchmen. At Strasburg, in the
same war, it took eighteen shells to
kill every man. And at the siege of
Paris 100000 shells only killed 1O7 and
wounded 200.
