Springfield, ILL.,, August 9.-1The men
of the Eighth Illinois infantry, col
ored, were paid yesterday, and later
left over the B. g. o. Southwestern,
going via Cincinnati and Washington

to go to Santiago. The Eighth is IA

IMPORTANT NAVAL CHANGES.
Captain sIgsbee Assigned TO the Come
mnnd orthe Battleship Texas.

Captain sIgsbee Assigned 10 the Com.
mnnd orthe Battleship Texas.
Washington, August 9.-Two lmpor-
tant changes in the command of ves-
sells Of the navy were announced last
evening by Secretary Long. Captain
Charles ID. Sigsbee, who commanded
the Maine when she met her late in
the harbor OF Havana and who hus
heen In command Of the auxiliary
cruiser st. Paul since the war began,
has been ordered to relieve Captain
John w. Philip of the command Of
the batteship Texas, now undergoing
repairs in New York. IT DIS under-
stood that Captain Philip will be as
signed TO shore duty, probably the
command of the Mare islanl navy
yard at San Francisco.
Secretary Long announced also that
Captain Caspar +. Goodrich, Of the
auxiliary cruiser st, Louis, had been
ordered to the command of the New
ark, Commodore Schley's new flag
ship, to succeed Captain Albert s.
Barker, who has been transferred to
the Oregon on account of the Illness
OF Captain Charles f. Clark.
1t is regarded by the naval author
tiles as particularly fitting mat Cap
tain Sigsbee should be gwen com
mand of the Texas. The Maine and
the Texas were the first ba ttleships Of
the new American navy, both having
been provided for by congress in the
same appropriation bill. Both ves-
sells were constructed by the govern
men in accordance with government
plans and under the supervision of
naval officers, the Maine at the New
York navy yard and the Texas at the
Norfolk navy yard. For years the
Texas was looked upon as the most
unfortunate vessel in the navy. Her
fine work in Cuban waters, especially
during the engagement which ended
in the destruction of Admiral Ger
vera's squadron, has dispelled this
feeling and at the same time proved
the wisdom OF her construction.

The reply of the Associated Press
Is as follows:
Washington, August /, 1898.-EIon.
John D. Long, Secretary Of the Navy,
Sir; Your favor Of July 2S is at hand,
concerning the articles published in
the New York Times and the New
York Herald Of the 10th inst. in which
certain opinions in regard to mines
are attributed to Commodore Schley.
This letter was not written by ell
Their of our representatives with the
squadron off Santiago but by another
gentleman who was temporarily on
one of our dispatch boats. The dis
patch was not subject to censorship.
Our Mr.. Graham, who has been con-
Stantly with Commodore Schley since
his squadron assembled at Hampton
Roads, and is probably more familiar
with his views than any newspaper
man at Santiago, takes issue with
the gentleman who wrote the letter
referred to and says that Commodore
Schley was always in complete ac-
cord with Admiral Sampson as to the
question Of entering the harbor. He
quotes Commodore Schley as saying:
admiral Sampson and | have al
ways agreed that II would be fool
ish to enter the harbor with the mines
in place and the condition OF the
mines proved that Admiral Sampson
was correct" Very respectfully yourA

with the blockade or the whole cuban
coast; charged with the detail OF all
the movements Of shlpsi charged with
clerical correspondence with the de-
partment and other officers, and es-
peclally charged with preventing the
escape OF Ceryera. Ilemeanber that
this man, whom you so sweeplngly
accused, was deyoting his days and
nights to these duties.
III you will read the orders issued
Ny him, beginning with June /, you
will find that the most thorough pre-
cNutions had been taken to prevent
the escape OF Cervera; that our fleet
was kept constantly IN line, so far
from the entrsnce at night, and so
far by day; that the most rigid care
with searchllghts and every other APP
pliance was taken every night; that
the commanding officer Of every ves-
sci knew his post and his duty In case
OF an attempt to escape, so that, when
that attempt came, the movement TO
prevent IT, by the attack OF our ves-
sells upon the outcomlng Spanlards,
went on like cloclSwork; as, at Chat
tanooga, every movement OF that
great battle was carried out, all
though General Grant was neither at
Missionary Ridge nor Lookout Noun
tain.
IL can we'll understand why the
friends Of other officers should be so
enthusiastic and earnest, as am, in
giving them the credit they so richly
every one Of them--deserve for
their glorious work, ] cannot con-
ceve OF anybody so mean as to de-
tract by single hair from their
merit. But l cannot understand why
such bitter feeling Is manifested in
many quarters toward Admiral
Sampson, when all these officers, sub
ordinate to him, clearly and cordially
recognize the fact that although at
the beginning he was, by orders from
Washington, going to confer with
General Shafter, yet the battle was
fought under his orders, and that the
victory was the contamination OF his
thorough preparation.
"For myself, know no prediction
for any one OF these gallant men. l
would crown every one of them with
laurel. / want them all to have their
just deserts. Every one OF them de-
serves unstinted praise; not one OF
them deserves anything less than full
measure for that days work. And,
therefore, can think Of nothing
more cruel THAN depreciation Of the
merit OF the faithful, devoted, patri-
otic commander-in-chief, physically
frail, worn with sleepess vigilance,
weighed with measureless response
bilities and details, letting no duty go
undone; for weeks with ceaseless pre-
cautions bockading the Spanish
squadron; at last, oy the unerrlng
fuNhllment of his plans, crushing II
under the feet which executed his
commands; yet now compelled in dig
nifed silence to be aSsailed as vim
dictiyely as II he were an enemy TO
his country.
Il am sure tnat no one more uVpiS-
Gates such an attack than the officers
of the feet--commodore, captains and
all. Among them, all is peace; what
ever dlsquiet there may he elsewhere,
the navy Is serene, am reminded
of Mrs. Beecher Stoves beautiful
verse:
Far, far beneath, the noise of temp
ests dieth,
And silver waves chime over peace
fully;
And no rude storm, how fierce so'er
IT flieth,
Disturbs the Sabbath Of that deeper
sea.

that he not only never stated any

always entirely agreed with me on
the question; and that he did not

differed from mine. AS / have rea-

A Clever Advertiser.

The Kansas City Journal says: GA
-four merchant at Edgar let the story
get out that while he was STOPPING over
his flour bin a $3.50 diamond ring had
slipped off his finger into the -four. He
appeared to be greatly exercised over the
loss, got notice in the local paper, but
finally announced with sigh that he
would have to give it up; that the ring
was in the -four somewhere; that he
supposed it would turn up in sack of
-four, but he had no idea what one.
Well, you ought to have seen the boom
that guileless man had in the -four
trade. For the next week he had to hire
extra help to fill sacks out of that bin.
One man who never bought sack from
him before came in and laid in "a WIN
ter's supply, And the smooth merchant
whistled softly as he filed the sacks and
winked his other eye."
