the man to command the North Atlantic

Il am told by many that Sampson Is

was a rigl move but that is no reason
why SchleJ should not be given credit

'I suppose nothing would have been
said openly of the affair If Sampson

Sampson's record in this war has not
been in any way brilliant one. He has
not had a chance, it is said. and has done
his duty exactly as it was pointed out
to him This may be entirely true. The
fact still exists, however, that the bonn
bardment of San Juan and the partial
destruction Of some of the Cuban forts

ship Maine a the time she was blown
up in Havana haFbor last February. was
last night taken to the Sheppard Asy-
lum by his family physician, DR., Green.
Lieut. Biandih is suffering from nerv-
Gus trouble, which had its origin in the
destruction of his ship, and the severe
mental strain which he underwent for
several months after the disaster.
He has been complaining for some time.
and it is said has been threatened with
nervous prostration. For several days he
has shown symptoms of mental disorder,
and has been subject to fancies which
have greatly worried his family. AS he
did not improve at home it was thought
best to send him TO the Sheppard Asylum.
where he would receive medical attention
and treatment such as 1t would be impos-
sibie for him to get in his home in the
country.
By this means 1t is hoped to avert Sc
rious trouble and hasten his complete
recovery. Accordingly, he drove over to
