Destruction OF Cervera's Fleet.

Importance Of coaling stations when
naval war is conducted at a distance
from the home base can be cited than
the fate which logged the finest of the
Spanish fleets from the time of it's de-
parture from the Cape Verde islands
to it's final humiliation under Admiral
Simpsons guns off Santiago. This SUI
perb squadron of four armored cruisers
with attendant destroyers was for it's
size unsurpassed by any similar group
of warships in the world. But it was
driven straight to it's death by lack Of
coal. Had it not been for this it never
would have been "bottled up in San
tiago harbor. Had Cervera not been
misinformed as to the conveniences of
recoaling there it is doubtful if he
would have sailed into that trap.
1t is quite true that the protection Of
the harbor would have seriously en-
barrassed an American naval attack had
not the imminent capture Of Santiago
by Skaters land investment driven the
Spanish admiral to a choice of evils.
There was a bare chance Of cutting his
way through the American fleet, at
least with one or two of his ships. But
the terrific odds and the deadly service
Of the American guns sealed the fate Of
Cervera and his fine cruisers. All this
would have been probably avoided had
there been coaling facilities within easy
reach. In any event, the radius of
operation for the Spanish fleet would
have been much greater and its threat
Of damage to US far more serious. Nobly
as Simpsons fleet, under Commodore
Schley in temporary command, vindi-
Gated American naval prowess Oh that
Hateful Sd Of July, let us not grudge
some tribute Of admiration to Spanish
%gallantry. Like Montijo at Manila, Ger
vera and his captains fought their ships
as long as a gun could be fired and final
ly beached them in flames. He only
yielded to the inevitable. Spain, like
full commanders with death, and sullen
threats Of this kind have been heard
from time to time during the present
war. 1t is to be hoped that Cervera,
when he is released from American cap
tivity, will be accepted by his people at
his genuine worth, even as Admiral
Sampson and Commodore Schley will
be recognized by their people, as true
heroes of the sea. Lieutenant Vain
wright, who was also one of the heroes
of the battle, not only illustrated Amer
lean chivalry, but paid a just tribute in
congratulating Admiral Cervera when
he surrendered on his splendid and dash
ing, though futile, attempt.

Marine Disaster.

French liner, added another to the
awful roll of sea tragedies. Even in this
age of perfected ocean travel, when hu.
man skill and prudence provide so in
geniously against the forces which con.
spire against mans safety on the tum.
bling main, the unexpected is forever
happening. With eyes and ears intent
on the affairs Of war, anxious only in
forecasting the miseries and triumphs
Of battlefields, this horror from an I'M
thought Of quarter struck with a more
stunning shock. All the bloodshed of a
desperate battle would not touch the
sensibilities so closely. The feature of
this tragedy which a%ggravates all the
others is the conviction that it was not
necessary, at least to the full extent of
the actual facts. The habit of ocean
liners in pushing their way at high
speed has now illustrated afresh how
custom will blunt the sense Of danger,
even when the responsibility of many
human lives hangs in the balance.
That the French ship was proceeding
at a speed of some 1S knots in a dense
fog, which made all ordinary safeguards
useless, suffices to brand the disaster as
in part the result of recklessness. That
so many other ships have been equally
reckless with safety does not palliate
the unlucky exception. In any case
speed in a fog is little short Of a crime.
Another startling reflection grows from
the evidences of lack of discipline among
officers and crew. Captain Deloncle per-
ished CALAMITY, it is true, and went
down with his ship, but even in the
short ten minutes which elapsed between
the collision and the laundering reso-
lutte officers with a crew we'll in hand
could have prevented the sickening bor-
rors which ensued in the mad scramble
for boats and saved many more lives.
One can scarcely fancy such a carnival
Of crazy fear run amuck on a first class
English or American steamship. Under
similar conditions the familiar example
of Anglo-Saxon discipline has been that
Of captain and officers, backed by crew,
suppressing the disorder of fear by force
of arms if need be-. 1t is the confidence
begotten by such experience which has
made tho English and American lines
the models Of the passenger service of
the world. Of course no accident exact
ly repeats the conditions Of any other.
But there seems to have been nothing
in the La Bourgogne affair which could
not have been greatly alleviated in hor-
ror by executive courage and discipline.

the family vendetta, who still fill life

lower, with other iron there and else
where steady, the general demand crowds
closely on the heels of the production.
After seven weeks of strike, the Brock
ton lasters are asking work on the old
terms, having failed to dictate to the
machine companies. but new hands are
so numerous that shipments from that
point have been 81, 700 cases against So, $40
last year during six weeks of the strike.
From Boston, shipments have been for
five weeks larger than ever he ore, not
quite one per cent over last years, two
per cent over those of 1896, one per cent
over 1894 and one per cent over 1892. but
future demands are restricted, although
large orders are being taken for immedi-
ate delivery in some wonen's and men s

is in grades which have been reduced in
price and the fall in hides at Chicago has
been nearly per cent on the average,
