He never returned to Madrid. When
his wife died. not long ago. he expressed
a desire to go back to Spain. "It is my
country, and love 1t far better than this
land" he said to his son.
"Well, this is my native country. and to
my thinking. the Stars and Stripes float
over the best people on earth, Richard
replied.
This display of feeling angered the old
man. When the Maine was blown mp and
the Spaniards were censured for 1t Mr..
Martens said he would return to Madrid
and help wipe out the insult with blood.
His son demonstrated, but he was firm.
II am a Spaniard. and SO are you. even

Richard responded. The quarrel became

quietly replied. The next day he Joined

His Tribute to the Work of His Old

Philadelphia, May 31.-That was a
moment of sensational interest at the
grave of Gen. Meade. in the Laurel Hill
Cemetery services of Post No. l, yes
terday. when the grizzled. one-legged
Gen. Daniel E. Sickles arose with mis-
crutches and hobbled over the grass.
closer and closer to the dust of the
hero of Gettysburg. To all the students
of war history. with the memory of the
charges revived by the posthumous ar
ticles of ex-Assistant Secretary of
War Charles A. Dana. and the memoir
able and bitter controversy arising
Gen. Sickles at Gettysburg. it was
moment of great suspense.
And perhaps few there fully realized
that another incident that shall be
specially repeated from this report
throughout future history was about
to happen.
Gen. Sickles seemed to stand inches
greater in the stature Of character as
he bent reverently over the grave
of Meade, then faced the veterans and
said:
Perhaps I knew Gen. Meade as we'll
as anyone here. We were comrades
in the army OF the HOtOmaC. ana In
many battles. l witnessed and bear
testimony to the high standerd of merit
which distinguished him as a soldier
and gentleman. I knew him as a
brigade. division, a corps and an army
commander. and in all these commands
he won and deserved the admiration of
all as a great general and also great
man. It is privilege to be here in the
presence of his fellow citizens to place
upon the grave Of my commander this
1ower.''
A thrill passed through the throng.
followed by the rapturOus applause,
as they saw the whole Significance of
this tribute from the man. who, Of all
men in the world. might have been ex-
pected to nurse enmity against the
fame Of Gen. Meade. All felt that an
other of those noble deeds that keep
up the processes of healing wounds
made in the late war had been per-
formed In their presence. Everyone
felt that these words of Gen. Sickles
concerning my commander" as he
dropped the flower on his grave and
sent those memorable words into the
hearts of the American nation-fOr the
nation will repeat them-had given the
deathblow to detraction.
The bugle sounded, muskets flashed,
their dense smoke clouded the company
and Cen Sickles screwed up his face
at the odor, whereupon someone ex-
claimed for him. that smells faniil-
iar."

Mr.. Anderson wanted 1t both. for his own
