and he has no apprehension whatever
of any mishap Detailing her. As to the
threat of the Temerario, he thought
the suspicion that the little craft could
hurt the big ship is ridiculous. He
said that Captain Clark is fully able to
guard the vessel from any attack by
the torpedo boat, as he is aware of the
situation, and is one of the best officers
10 the navy. Besides, Captain Barker
has unlimited faith in the prowess of
the Oregon. and he would not readily
admit that she could not hold her own
against all the Spanish ships assembled
at Porto Grande.
The officers and men on the Oregon
are equally confident of being able to
take good care of themselves. In a
private letter received here today by a
member Of his family, an officer of the
Oregon, writing from Callao under
date of April 4, the day the vessel
sailed from Punta Arenas: says ::
"Steaming through the tropics in a
battleship is rather hot experience,
but if we get into sharp action with
the Spaniarls we may look back on
this trip as being cool. However, we
will make it warm for any one that
runs up against us. We were less than
l6 days in making the trip, which is a
record breaker for battleship. So
far she has done beautifully, and, |
think, will prove to be fine ship
under any and all circumstances"
