DESERVING OF CREDIT
MEN WHO HAVE BORNE THE BUR-
DEN OF PREPARING FOR WAR.
Secretary Long Praises the Heads of
Bureaus of the Navy Department, ON
Whose Work Much Has Depended.

WASHINGTON, June 22.-The secretary
of the navy to-day, speaking to an Assoc
ciated Press reporter of the general salts
faction that has been expressed with the
Navy Department, said that in justice it
should be borne in mind that the navy Is
always in state of mobilization although
the coming of the war had necesstated
vast amount of special preparation and
large increase of vessels and naval force.
The secretary added: ~ notice that some
times get a word of praise, and sometimes
Mr.. Roosevelt, who was my assistant Sec
rotary, and who certainly deserved ii as
much as his successor. But let me tell you
that there are men entitled to special graft
tude and recognition who will never get half
the praise they deserve. These are the
chiefs of the various naval bureaus. They
have borne the real burden of preparations.
When war became imminent they were
given large power and were told they would
be held responsible for having the work OF
their bureaus done properly and efficiently.
That work they have discharged with the
utmost ability. efficiency, thoroughness and
success. There has been no question of sup
ply of provisions, of coal, or ammunition
and ordnance and munitions of war, or
clothing and food, of details of officers and
men, of hospital stores and outfit. of the
construction and repair of ships and Of
steam engineering supplies.
1T is one of the misfortunes of every
great era like this that many of the men
who do the work and bear the burden are
rarely mentioned and never get tho credit
which belongs to them. Ii / can do any
thing to secure these men just appreciation
l want to do 1t. They are all experts and
men of experience in their various lines. 1T
is pretty hard, too. for some of them. who
know that the glories of war are won not
in bureaus, but at the front in battle. They
have sometimes pleaded hard and il was
not easy either for the department TO refuse
their requests for active service or for them
to accept the necessity of remaining where
they are. hope you will say a good word
for them. Few know the extent of what
they have undertaken and done or their
high professional competency. spirit and
standard"

LANDING AT TWO PLACES.
Spaniards Think Americans Will Use
Both Daiauiri and AscerrnderOs.

Both Daiquiri and AscerraderOs.
MADRID, June p, p. m-The governor
of Santiago de Cuba has cabed the govern
ment as follows: Yesterday morning an
American transport carrying troops took a
southeasterly direction, but twenty war
ships remain before Santiago de Cuba"
This leads to the supposition that the Amer
leans are threatening to make landing be-
tween Guantanamo and Daiquir in order
to form a base of operations with view to
a simultaneous landing at Acerraderos.
Reports that there is a failure of provi-
sions at Santiago de Cuba are inaccurate
Wheat is exhausted, but maize is abundant
The government has entire confidence in
the ability of Generals Linares and Pareja
to meet the emergency at Santiago. 1t is
reported that great enthusiasm prevails
among the troops and citizens of Santiago
de Cuba
An official dispatch from Havana says:
'"The army in the island is organized in
four corps, besides the trocha division.
THE blockade is being maintained by ten
vessels. 1t is reported from Santiago that
forty-two vessels have reappeared before
Sigua, near Daiquiri."
LONDON, June 23-The Madrid CORE
spondent of the Standard says: Eel Heraldo
de Madrid says that the government sup
pressed the chief part of the dispatch of
the governor of Santiago de Cuba General
Linares) detailing the forces, means of de-
Tense and provisions at his disposal. The
impression in political and military circles
is that important news is imminent from
Madrid. 1t is generally expected that
Americans will attempt a bombardment of
the first line of defenses at the mouth of
Santiago bay simultaneously with landings
to outf1ank the Notifications if silenced by
the fleet. Then, if successful, they will
move forward with the assistance of the
insurgents for a decisive struggle at the
second line of defense, in the interior of the
bay, where the Spanish fleet may be eX-
pected to cooperate with the defenders.
The resistance is likely to be severe and
prolonged Indeed, the Spanish naval and
military authorities hopeful that Gen.
Linares, with the garrison and the voun-
teerS recently considerably reinforced, may
be ably backed by Admiral Cervera to repel
the Americans, who would then be in a
precarious position on the most unhealthfu
part of the coast. Santiago is provisioned
for several weeks, and the authorities have
taken possession of all the stores. The
submarine defenSeS of the bay are, more
over, of formidable character"

A SCENE AT ACERRADEROS.
Picture of the Conference Between
Garcia, Shafter and sampson.

Garcia, Shafter and Sampson.
NEW YORK, June 22.-The conference be-
tween General Garcia and the United States
army and navy officers, at Acerraderos,
Cuba, on Monday, is thus described by
Richard Harding Davis, in copyright dis
patch from Port Antonio to the Herald:
The first landing of the regular army has
just taken place at this little point of land,
twelve miles west of Santiago. 1t was u
landing for conference only, and the most
interesting feature of it is that, without
military escort of any sort Major General
Shafter, the commander of the army of in
vasion, and his staff Rear Admiral Samp-
son and Lieutenant Stanton, his chief of
staff, have landed in a small boat the
shore of the enemy's country, within twelve
miles of twelve thousand Spanish soldiers
and the Castle of MORO, without a musket
or revolver to protect them. The Marble
head lay off shore. ragged escort of Gu
ban soldiers met them on the landing, but
of United States soldiers, except in the
sense that the officers of highest rank in
the army are soldiers, there was none.
1t is historical moment in the history
of Cuba, if not America, for General Gar
cha, General Shafter and Admiral Sampson
have met for the first time. They are
grouped together under a sun so hot that
it burns the eyes, on high cliff overlook
ing a magnificent valley of royal palms,
which meets motionless blue sea. broken
by lines of white breakers on the shore,
and which. farther out. is broken again by
the slow moving bulls of thirty transports
and thirty ships of war.

be necessary to provide a large number OF

to remain in Cuba, and until they are

BERLIN, June 22.-Dr. Won Schweninger
Prince Bismarck's physician, has married
in Heligoland, in the North sea, the di-
vorced wife of Herr Franz Won Lenbach,
the distinguished German portrait painter
who is also one of Bismarck's oldest and
most trusted friends.
In the early part of the summer of 1896
Herr Franz Won Lenbach brought suit for
divorce from his wife, who was the Countess
Moltke. accusing her of infdelity. The suit
made public property of a scandal that had
long been the talk of Berlin society. The
painter frankly declared his intention to
wed the Countess Won HornStein when he
had secured the decree of separation, and
with view of being able to marry again
he left the Roman Catholic Church, which
does not recognize divorces. Frau Won
Lenbach also announced her intention to
be married again as soon as the decree of
divorce was made absolute to DR.. Won
Schweininger, although intimate friends of
the physician expressed doubts at the time
that he would marry the lady.
