the War Department Under Com
mand of Gen. Brooke, Who Will
Lead In the Invasion of Cuba
Division Under Gen. Wade.
By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, April 2S.-The presi.
dent today called upon the people OF
the United States, for the first time IN
thirty years, to manifest their martial
strength. the call this time being upon
a united people to go forward to battle
with a foreign foe.
= The secretary Of war created a new
army corps.
n The two, taken together with the
other news. Of today, showed that the
regular army soon will move on Cuba
and that meanwhile the volunteers will
be equipped and drilled.
The presidents proclamation, while
actually issued, was not certified to the
governors of the states and territories,
and will not be until Monday. The
reason is twofold.
In the first place, the war depart
ment desires to avoid destroying the
present organization of the national
guard. which is to be called into service
first. The guard regiments are COM
posed of twelve companies, and being
officered more numerously than the
regular army regiments, would have to
be changed to correspond to the army
organization in order TO comply with
the law as it exists. The pending Hull
bill, however, provides for meeting just
such an emergency and permits the use
of the national guard as organized. This
consideration is more important than
would appear at first, inasmuch as
many of the national guard have vol
unteered only under condition that they
may serve as now organized.
The second consideration which in
fiuenced the department In postponing
the certifcation of the call until Mon
day, is a desire to make sure that ade-

Something to Think ABOUT.

Our two naval battles with Spain have
given Europe something 10 think about
Before the battles of Manila and Sanu-
ago European governments were disposed
to regard our navy with feelings akin to
contempt. II was small and they didn't
think our ships were any better than
their own ships, if so good. They were
inclined to think our navy didn't amount
to much. They have been awakened TO
the fact that they were mistaken.
Their newspapers are busy discussing
the performances Of our navy and those
of them that are frank acknowledge that
our battleships and cruisers possess
points that II would be wen to study. The
London Mail, for instance. said a day or
two ago, that Their is distinct uneasl-
ness in the highest ranks of the British
navy over the modern armament of the
British warships." That paper also ad-
mitted that American ships, in respect to
armor and guns, are superior to those of
other nations. 1t will be recalled by
those who have paid attention to the dis
cussions among naval experts concerning
batteship armament that it has been per-
sistently claimed that our battleships
were over-gunned. The Santiago battle
did not prove that they were right. On
the contrary, it afforded pretty conclusive
evidence that we were right.
To discover that the warships of this
country are superior TO those of every
other country in important particulars
very naturally causes European govern
nents uneasiness. Russia did not wait
to see what sort of an impression the
Oregon would make in battle before con-
sulting with our shipbulders about build
ing warships for her. She was satisfied
from the Oregon's remarkable journey of
i4oOos miles that better battleshps could
be built in our shipyards than elsewhere
in the world
It seems therefore, that our little navy
has made Europe put on her thinking cap.
She knows that it will not be a little navy
very long and that if we build better
warships than are built in any other coun-
try the fact cannot be known to them
too soon.

Simpson md schIev-

A question that is disturbing the pub-
lie mind just now to a marked extent.
is whether Admiral Sampson or Commo-
dore Schley is entitled to the credit for
the naval victory at Santiago. 1t seems
that the House of Representatives had
no difficulty in settling it, because il
adopted resolution thanking Commo-
dore Sehley for the victory, and it is prob
able that the public viii adopt that view.
Admiral Sampson, however, has a good
many strong friends in and out of Con-
gress. The President is particularly
friendly TO him and there is no reason to
doubt that he is in every respect worthy
of the confidence which the government
reposes in him. 1t was rather unforru-
nate for him, however that he happened
to be absent when the battle between cur
squadron and that of Admiral Cervera
began. 1t is true that he was absent in
accordance with instructions from the
government. He had started TO meet Gen.
Shafter, the commander of the land
forces and have a conference with nim
II was not expected that Admiral Ger
vera would attempt to make his escape
from Santiago harbor at the time he did
Had Admiral Sampson been present il is
probable that he would have fought the
battle as successfully as Commodore
Schley did. His absence was not his fault
1t was his misfortune.
Commodore Schley is clearly entitled to
the credit for the victory. He it was who
bottled up the Spanish squadron in San
tiago harbor, and it was under his di-
rection that the remarkable naval battle
was fought in which that squadron was
totally destroyed. The fact that Admiral
Sampson was in command of our squad
ron does not lessen in The least Commo-
dore Schleyfs notable achievement.
No doubt there will be an effort to give
Admiral Sampson the credit for the vic
tory simply because he was the ranking
officer of our squadron at Santiago, Tut
the people will not have il that way. They
would protest if, on the strength of that
victory, an effort should be made to raise
Admiral Sampson to the rank of rear ad-
miral. Al present he is occupying that
position through the courtesy of the Presi-
dent.
The army and navy officers should be
treated with absolute justice. No favor
ltism should be shown. That is the way,
and the only way, in which jealousies,
which would lessen the chances OF sue
cess upon land and sea, can be kept out
of the army and navy
