GENERAL SHAEIER.

After all, it appears that the criti-
cisms of General Shafter may be
somewhat premature. On account
of the brilliancy which characterized
the victories of Commodore Dewey
at Manila and of Commodore Schlev
at Santiago, it is barely possible that
the public expected too much of
General Shafter, and such may eN-
plain the lack of confidence which
was generally felt in his movements
prior to the surrender of General
Linares.
But the estimate which the country
at large now puts upon the soldier
ship of General Shafter is much
higher, Success is generally looked
upon a> the test of military prowess,
and viewed in the light Of this test
General Shafter is clearly entitled to
the reversal of Judgment which has
recently taken place in his favor.
There can be no doubt of the fact
that General Shafter has prosecuted
operations in Cuba under serious
difficulties. Exposed to the fierce
heat of the tropical sun which blazes
over that quarter and fretted by the
obstacles peculiar to the unfamiliar
nature of the country, it must be add
mitted that he has had much tC
contend with: but happily for the
pertinacity which seems to be one OF
his characteristics. he has surmounted
every difficulty and Santiago is ours
We congratulate General Shafter
on his own personal account. as wei
as on behalf of the country. for the
signal victory which he has achieved
in compelling General Linares to
surrender upon the terms which ART
already familiar to the public.-At

WASHINGTON. July %. 1898.

Washington, July 70, 1898.
Hon. John B. Gordon, Commander-in-
chief United Confederate Veterans,
Atlanta, Ga.
Dear Gen. Gordon: Your recent tele-
gram in behalf of the United Confederate
Veterans was very welcome, and would
have written to you before in acknowl-
edgment excepting for the unusual de-
mands upon my time.
The present war has certainly served
one very useful purpose in completely
obliterating the sectional lines drawn in
the last one. The response to the
nations call to arms has been equally
spontaneous and patriotic in all parts
of the country. Veterans of the Gray
as we'll as of the Blue are now fighting
side by side, winning equal honor and
renown. Their brave deeds and the I'M
equaled triumphs of our army and navy
have received the gratitude of the people
of the United States.
To have such hearty COMMUNICATION
from yourself and your colleagues OF the
work of this administration in the con.
duct of the war, and the pledge OF what
ever support may be needed to help III
bringing it to successful completion, is
indeed, most gratifying, and l thank you
especially for the frank and cordial ex
preston of the resolutions passed anC
| forwarded to me. With very kind re
CARDS, am, sincerely yours,
WILLIAM MCKINLEY.

The alleged letter of Gen. Garcia
to Gen. Shafter wherein the former
threatened to Withdraw his forces
and no longer cooperate with the
American army. and all because of
certain socallsd bad treatment to
which the insurgents had been sub
jected by ignoring them in the
details of Toral's surrender along
with barring them out OF Santiago
when the city should have been
turned over TO them to pillage and
plumber according to the story
turns out to be a fake 1t was the
work evidently of some yellow
journal representative and was done
for purpose-to discredit the Cuban
insurgents and sell more copies of
the paper. But the principal cause
no doubt was entity to the Cubans.
Garcia didn't write the letter it is
said. nor did he ever make the
threats attributed TO him. As to
whether or not Gen. Skaters letter
in reply was also forgery is not
stated. The author of the story
should be run down and expelled
from the island or severely punished
if there is any law applying to such
cases.

NORTH CAROLINA'S QUOTA,

Recent publications Ill some of the
newspapers that North Carolina
has furnished only about tifty-tive
men of her quota under President
Mckinlev's second call for volunteers
prompted Assistant Attorney Gem
eral Boyd, who halls from that state,
to address the adjutant general. He
received reply yesterday by tele-
graph, which forcibly explains the
situation. The telegram received by
General Boyd reads:
Raleigh, n. c., July %, 1898.
Hon. j. E. Boyd, Assistant Attorney
General:
Yours received. The facts are
that under the first call we raised
our quota, 2,205 men, which made
the First and Second regiments and
battalion of colored. Under second
call our qaota was 1851. AS the
companies Of troops under first call
were organized on minimum of
eighty and the United States desired
the maximum of 100 men to a COM
pany. General Corbin set aside 1888 of
our quota. with which to recruit and
ordered us to use the balance. 76S,
to make seven companies of colcred
infantry.
We got this order June %, and or
ganiZed at once and added the seven
,, to the three colored. making three
regiments complete. Now we have
used our part Of the 1913 to recruit
the Second regiment, and the First
regiment at jacksonville has within

raised 800 men. Under the second

the Spanish soldiers as they have
always done any soldiers with whom
they have been confronted; but we
have found it no childs play to deal
with them in Cuba; and at Santiago

Santiago will always hold in high
respect the valor, vigor and en-
durance of that city's defenders. And
yet, mark. it is this veteran Spanish

years, and have often beaten, not
