in many vital parts by fire should have
succumbed to the heavy weather Even
in its latest hours the Maria Teresa bore
witness to the worth of the Yankee sea-
man. The coolness, valor and amenability
to discipline which the crew of the i'll
fated ship displayed at the moment Of
extreme peril, when the waves dashed
high over the battered hull and every
minute seemed to be her last aioat was
surpassed by nothing during the entire
war and it was a display Of which every
American should feel proud.
BUT, while we deplore the loss Of the
warship, Spain rejoices. Once more her
honor has been saved, for SO long as a
ship captured from her sailors and bear
ing her Spanish name flew the Stars and
Stripes, the naughty Dons felt as though
they could not hold up their heads.
There will be opportunity enough yet to
depress the Spanish heads Several other
vessels of Spain, now beneath the waters,

Loss Of the Maria Teresa.

The loss of the Maria Teresa is TO be
deeply deplored by every American, not
ON account of the actual loss of the vessel.
but BECAUSE Of the sentiment which went
10 the bottom of the Atlantic when the
battered warship of Spain disappeared be-
meath the waves. The addition of the
vessel to our navy, bearing her Spanish
name, so long as she remained afloat.
would be a living monument to the
bravery of the American sailor and the
genius of his commanders. She would
have been an object lesson to the Ameri-
can youth far more powerful than pages
Of written history. and would inculcate In
his youthful breast patriotism and de-
votion to country which would always
remain with him.
The fact that the Maria Teresa was lost
rejects no discredit on any one, nor does
1t in any way detract from the fame
achieved by the Southern patriot, Rich
mond Pierson Hobson. The gale which
she encountered off the Bahamas WAS
most severe, and one which was barely
weathered BY staunch well built craft
IT is no wonder then that a vessel shat
tered and riddled with shot and weakened
