Washington correspondent of the New
York Tribune: One of the foreign at
taches who has returned to Washington
gives a humorous account Of his expert
ences in the Santiago campaign. Never
the less it affords an insight into the
qualities Of the American soldier which
caused the early capitulatloE OF the city.
All the reporters from abroad in report
ing to their respective governments, are
understood to be more or less critical of
the manner in which the campaign was
conducted, regardless Of the canons of
scientific warfare. But all acknowledge
that, for city fortified and defended
as Santiago was, the surrender was
forced with marvellous skill. This
attache in speaking Of his own expert
ence the other day said:
II fear it will not be possible for my
government to understand it all. tell
of many things that might not be agree
able to your war department, and it
would not be courteous for me to speak
Of those things. But my trouble with
my own military superlors will be be-
cause of your American language. Some
things cannot translate. When saw
your Infantry going forward against the
opposing troops IN the forts and intrench-
ments, said to the officer with me that
the infantry should not ATTEMPT such a
movement without more artillery.
You're right he told me, but the boys
are getting there At night when we
we're all so hungry ! ventured to inquire
If a further movement were contem.
plated till your army were proxisioned
Then the officers who were very gentle.
manly, all laughed and said the army
would think about ratlons when they
got there The second day we me,
many of your wounded men coming
back as we were going forward. When
the colonel asked them about the fight
ing SO many times heard them say, wi
. got there And afterward also I heari
those words very often. But it is yer.
hard for me to explain so my own peopl,
will understand 1t, what nature Of tao
tics is got there

1t was a blessed thing that the war
came to an end when it did Had the
spaniards realized the fearful havoc
disease was working in our army it is
doubtful ii Santiago would have been
surrendered or the Spanish admiral
made the attempt to escape with his
fleet. The fighting before Santiago was
the most bloody in point of numbers en-
gagged of any battle in history, but for
every life lost there dozen have been
saved by bringing the struggle to
close. The general public is already
aware OF the fearful condition of the
American troops lately brought home
from Cuba and the condition of those in
camp at Chickamauga and those recent
ly removed from Tampa to the coast OF
Florida Is but little better. For the
past two weeks train load after train
load Of sick soldiers many of them sick
unto death-have been hurried north
from the southern camps and glader
lot OF boys the sun never shone on.
That northern bred and northern raised
men could not congregate in large bod.
les in the south during the heat Of the
summer season without incurring un-
usual risk from illness, is to be expected,
but for much OF the sickness In camp,
poor hospital service at the front and
worse than criminal neglect on the
homeWard bound transports, the war
department is rightly held responsible.
and the head and front Of this offending
is Secretary Alger. There seems to have
been disposition from the first to ig-
more the advice Of trained army men,
officers who had made campaigns the
study Of life time and the result was
the placing in responsible positions
politica! fayorites through whose in
competency the rank and file, the men
who bear the brunt of the fighting nave
suffered, and suffered fearfully, from
lack of proper attendance. Any other
body Of men in the world but Americans
would have laid down and quit like an
overloaded pack mule and the conquest
of Santiago may be attributed solely to
the valor Of the individual American
soldier and not to Stanton at Washing
ton and Grant in the field. Everyone
appreciates the suddenness with which
the government had to prepare for war,
the difficulties attending The fitting out
of the troops and the perplexities Of car.
ing for tho sick and wounded, but that
does not excuse loading a transport with
700 to LOCO typhoid or dysentary patti
ents and placing them on steady diet
of salt pork and hardtack, food that is
hard enough on well man to digest. A
congressional investigation is certain
and when it takes place it is to be hoped
that the blame will be rightly placed.

We hear great deal Of the last Of the
old veterans and the end Of the pensions.
1t doesn't look like it. The old soldiers
are rapidly passing away, but the new
pensioners more than keep pace with
those dropped by death, The forthcom-
ing annual report OF the commissioner
of pensions shows that on June 80, 1897,
there were on the rolls of the pension
bureau 976,0l4 pensioners. To this
must be added 6,S52 original claims
granted but not recorded, and 7G2 restor-
ations, which were not entered at the
time on the books. Commissioner
Evans granted 63,64s original claims
during the past year and restored 4,OS9
pensioners to the benefits OF pensions.
The pensioners now aggregate 1,O4O,356.
More pensions were granted last year
than any time from 1869 to 1880.
