schley's Doings at Santiago.

If the early reports are to be oeievel'
Commodore Schley has done just precisely
what everyone expected he would do
whenever he got the chance. He has
pounded the outer defences of Santiago
de Cuba into dust heaps. He is thus one
step nearer to the capture or destruction
of such of Cervera's ships as are IN this
port. His next step will be, probably. to
attack some of the defences Within the
channel at long range Having disabled
these, he will perhaps send in small craft
the channel and remove or destroy then,
and this operation he will probably cover
with one of his heaviest ships. moving
slowly in after the mine searchers and
keeping the vessels of the Spanish fleet
at bay, until the whole fleet can come in
to attack them For this work, the Puri-
tan would be an ideal ship, but the Iowa
or Massachusetts win be equally effective
and not much easier to hit.
81 Inc plEy VI II di Is MT HIS OAh was
left until it is hard to do. If the naval
commanders, Sampson and Schley, had
been given authority to go ahead at the
Beginning of the war, they might have
destroyed the defences of Santiago,
Cienfuegos and San Juan de Porto Rico
before Admiral Cervera's fleet sailed from
the Cape de Verde stands. Then the Ger
vera problem would have been an easy
one. The Spaniard would have had no
option but to fight or scurry back across
the Atlantic as fast as the barnacles on
his neglected ships would let him.. He
French and English Stands for a few
days, and then only two ports would have
been open to him, Havana, if he could
fight his way in, and Cadiz, if the Ameri-
can squadrons did not overtake him and
force him into battle before he reached
there.
In ether words, we are now starting in
to do under disadvantages the things that
we might have done in the first week of
the war. We have lost time, advantage,
prestige and money. The Administration,
however, has gained the time necessary to
call out 100000 troops and to bestow a
number of distinguished places on vari-
Gus peoples sons and ~grandsons. The
passage of the new revenue measure,
which is framed to counteract the glar-
ing defects of the Dingley tariff. has also
been facilitated. In other words, if the
wal has gone slowly. the party in control
has made various strides in its control of
the situation.
OF course the success of the war has
not been imperilled in it's final aspects.
We cannot help winning this time. It will
only AXE a little more blood and a good
deal more money than it would have
needed If 1t had been undertaken in
earnest for the speediest and easiest re-
suits, as the Prussian campaign of Sad
owa was.

owa was.

THE work done by Schley and his
squadron shows that Dewey is not the
only great American commander. The
bombardment of Santiago, SO far as one
can tell from the first reports, was a
feat of skill and resolution equal to that
of Manila, and if it has not the romantic,
the cavite batteries, it is only because
the circumstances were different, calling
for more strategy and less dash. All
commanders cannot be alike, nor can all
battles. The great thing is that ours is
not a one-man navy. We can e great
admirals to the uttermost ends of the
earth, and wherever and whenever there
Is work to do. there is a man both eager
and able to do It.
Commodore Schley-presumably it will
soon be Rear Admiral-has the face of a
great commander; he has a perceptive
nose and a resolute chin, a comprehen-
sive forehead and the eye of a seabird.
It was only necessary to look at his pic

prlatlon of sum of money to secure

MENT.
a number of trusts that are eating
the lives out Of the people have been
set aside for dlsciplinlng;
But the trust which the farmers are
after. and in fact all of the grain deal
ers of tho State, Is the infamous Ele-
vator ana Warehouse Trust, created by
the last Legislature.
Methods Of public warehouse men In
dealing In grain We're scathingly de-
nounced at the recent meeting Of the
Grain Dealers National Association In
| the Chicago Beach Hotel, and the
speaker who presented the arrange
ment, Samuel II. Greeley Of the Chi
cagO Board Of Trade. threatened that
IL legislation did not soon relieve the
aggravated condition, its abolition
would be made the substance of pop
ular demand backed by force of arms.
The speaker laid the responsibility for
the condition he deplOred at the G;~or
of the railroads, accusing them OF fos-
tering monopoly by granting special
privileges to the warehouse men. He
said in part: "The grain trust In Chi.
cagO, as represented in the public ware
house men, Is one OF the most gigantic
and harmful trusts In the world. The
great public warehouses are now under
| the management of men who derive
| their power from the railroads. Prior
to 1885, before these men obtained their
power, there was free competition on
| the floor of the Board OF Trade. At
that time the public warehouse men en-
tered the grain business In competition
with dealers who were forced to pay
three fOurths of a cent a month for
storage in the warehouses. The public
warehouse man Is licensed servant
OF the State, and owing to the advan'
tage he derives from not having to pay
this storage toll, he Is enabled to con-
troll prices. The warehouse man can
also sort the grain stored in his ele-
vator, remove the best and obtain 10
cents a bushel more for 1t, Great guam.
titles Of grain stored by dealers in these
warehouses are boarded for storage
charges. The market Is 'beared until
prices are such that the warehouse
man can buy the grain at a low price,
besides reaping the storage profit. The
present methods are an encouragement

with their engines pumping hundreds
Of thousands Of gallons Of brine every
week. At depth OF some 200 or 800
feet are immense subterranean lakes
OF brine. and as the contents Of these
are pumped and pumped away. the
