OPERATIONS AT SANTIAGO.

The operations at Santiago appear to have
been conducted with the discretion and valor
which the American people have been accus-
toned 10 associate with the name Of Commodore
Schley. Perhaps the best term TO apply to II Is
n reconnaissance In force There was Appar-
emily no attempt nor intention 10 force all en-
trance into the harbor. The first point was TO
ascertain the presence Of the Spanish fleet.
That seems to have been done beyond all fur
Their question Next the position Of the land
batteries at the entrance Of the harbor was to
be learned by drawing their fire. That, too
was done. And. finally, as much damage was
to he inflicted upon the forts and such ships ms
were within range was possible without I'M
duly impering the American feet SO far as
can he learned at this date the forts were badly
damaged. some of them silenccd and some In
jury was probably done to the best or the span
ish ships. while not a scratch was suffered by
our fleet. A good days work. indeed.
What next is safely to be left to Commodore
Schley. If the Spanish attempt sort'e he can
be trusted to deal with them after the manner
OF Dewey at Manila But 1t Is exceedingly
doubtful II they make any. II not. there re-
mains the question whether he should 20 into
the harbor after them. Concerning the advisa-
bity of doing that. he knows a good deal more
than people in New-York do. and much more
now than he himself knew before the recent
engagement The insurgents are In con-
siderable force around Santiago, under one or
their best commanders. They ought to be able
to occupy the hills which surround the city on
three sides and make It hot for the Spanish In
that quarter Then. caught between two fires
Admiral Cervera should be forced TO cap'tuate
or meet destruction. The coming on OF the hurr-
cane season and the rumored advance of the
Cadiz feet are circumstances which Commodore
Schley will, OF course, take into account and
which may have some determining effect upon
his action.
II would he easy, AS some now ind II. to Sit In
a New-York office and tell exactly what Com
modore Schley ought to do in every detail.
Such demonstrations would be Mt least as vaua-
bic as the whistling of the wind. One might
denounce him for not rushing right into Santi-
ago Harbor. as Dewey did at Manila Then.
If he did So and one of his ships got blown
I'D by mine. the same infalllble oracle
might denounce him again for being so rash and
for not being content to wait when he had the
game safe In his hands. On the whole, II
strikes us as better In this weather, 10 lot the
man who has the responsibility exercise the dis

has prepared at Santiago. The man who drove

A YOUTHFUL PRODIGY.

What the voters Of Pennsylvania will DO
with the State ticket which was started on lis
way to the polls by the Republican convention
at Harrisburg yesterday remains TO be seen.
After an uncommonly stirring preliminary can

which experience has taught him TO anticipate;
but apparently he did not win with such ease
as to Justify the claim that it is all over but
the shouting having controlled only 19S votes
In n convention of 1862 members. Various com
plicatiOns which have already attracted more
attention than the war excitement might have
been expected to permit may possibly take on
an OminOus aspect in the near future. Nobody,
for example has yet been able to announce
how Mr. Wanamaker will wish or try to employ
the forces which are represented in the 1872
votes given yesterday to the candidate whom
he favored after his own withdrawal. Then.
again, If one Swallow does not make summer

in making the supcrhuous assertion that Mr.
Grow is one Of the finest young men in public

that he was the youngest member Of the House

ing persecution, the United States will take I'm
his case. Consequently the sworn proofs Of his
American citizenship are now on their way to
the United States. It was announced In Janu-
airy. 1897, that counsel for DR.. Herr presented
at Washington q claim for indemnity In the sum
OF S5OOOOOO against the French Government
for the alleged illegal attempt to prosecute Dr.
Herr.
The facts in brief are that DR.. Herr whose name
stands very high in scientific circles az an cleo.
trcian and physician. although born In France. Of
French parents. Is an American citizen. He was
educated in New-York. and at the age OF sixteen
years he was a Lieutenant In the United States
Army He married an American woman. and
when his children born In Paris he caused
them TO be registered American citizens At the
Consulate.
On January 10. 1893. while he was staying at
BOurnemOuth, England, Win MS Wiie ne was ar.
rested under extradition proceedings on warrant
from the French Government charging him with
fraud and embezzlement growing out OF the Pana-
ma Canal scandal. Under the law prisoner wanted
for extraditlon must appear at the Bow Street
Police Court. DR.. Herr was confined 70 his bed by
Illness and so was unable TO appear. The case was
kept open. and he was continued under arrest in
his bed four years Then the British Parliament
came to mis- relief. and passed a special act that
permitted the magistrate TO attend Here's bedside
and take his testimony.
This was DONE and the magistrate promptly
declared that the charges were utterly invalid and
scarcely deserving of notice. Herr was thereupon
released from arrest. Meanwhile the French Gov.
eminent had Instituted numerous proceedings
against him In France, and cOnfscated all the prop.
erty OF himself and Of his wife Or. Herr alleged
that this waa persecution pure and simple. and
that the French Govern ent knew that the charges
against him were baseless before his trial There
fore claiming TO have been injured in name and
health and in other ways. he demanded that the
State Department should prefer claim against the
French Government.
Although he mentioned no sum, the brief showed
that he demarded the sum OF S,oNe~ In letter
he sent TO the President Of the French Republic
which never answered.

THE MENOCAL VERDICT.

The Menoca court-martial makes one fart
perfectly plain II the civil engineer was
negligent" somebody else was a thief. IF the
work on the Brooklyn drydOck was so faulty
that Mr.. Menocal is justly suspended for three
years for failure TO find out that the Govern
ment was being cheated. then somebody was
doing the cheating which he is blamed for not
detecting. That is the gravest feature Of the
case. If any suspicion OF corruption rested on
Mr. Menocal 1t would be far otherwise Then
the most serious concern would be aroused for
the honor OF those TO whom we trust our de-
fence. As it is. face the necessity OF teach
ing those who contract TO give us defences that
they cannot with impun,ty defraud the Gov.
ernment trusting TO the mistakes Of It's ser
wants to escape discovery. There Is n limit to
human efficiency in inspection and oversight
and the Governments only safety is in punish
ing severely those who take advantage Of 1t, SO
that contractors may find It does not pay 10
scamp their work every time an inspectors
back Is turned. 1t is TO be hoped that the court
martial Just concluded marks only the begin
ming Of Investigations into the Brooklyn dry
dock scandal-a scandal which is by no means
confined TO one piece of bad work or one IN
stance of careless inspection. and for which
1t is TO be noted that the court-martial strikes
out the word "culpable" from the specification
Of the charge, and finds Mr. Menocal simply
guilty OF neglect and carelessness, and recon-
mends cemency TO the Secretary OF the Navy
because the officer had been absent from the
dock account Of illness for n considerable
time when the bad work was being done be-
cause the contract was imperfect, because he
had insufficient assistance, and because his
superiors uniformly testified to his industry
and ability. That is a condemnation which some
what resembles an acquittal. Perhaps 1t was
the best the court-martlal could do to show its
sympathy with Mr.. Menocal, and at the same
time denouncs tia frauds in the dock construc-
ton without making invidious and perhaps in
subordinate criticism on the past conduct OF
the Navy Department. 1t is matter of record
that Mr. Menocal protested from the beginning
against the Walsh contract, and the result of
bis insistence to Secretary Herbert that the
Government would not receive proper drydock
under II may well have suggested to him that
excess Of zeal would be useless. ANY fault he
might find with the work was likely 10 he At
tributed to personal motives. He asked for in
spectors to see that the contract was carried
out In detail and the request was refused He
cannot for these reasons be excused for neglect.
but his failure to see the sham work Ia easily
understood.
Of course military efficiency and discipline
must be maintained. and courtsmartial must
frown upon all officers who do not do what ia
