Capt. Young is now on his way to
Havana, Cuba, where he will be made
harbOrmaSter under Commodore Crom-
well, very important position just at
this time. He will sail on the Morgan
line steamer this week.
The Hist was one of tie most active
vessels on the south side of Cuba. She
was just the right size to poke her nose
into every nook and corner and then
get away without being sunk. On June
80, this vessel went into Manzanillo
Bay and did some great work, being
hit eleven times in the engagement.
Capt. Young speaks in the highest
terms of his crew, and says drawer
set of men were not on the sea during
the war. The Hist was engaged in
cutting cables and doing every other
trick that became necessary.
Since the close of hoStilitieS Capt.
Young and his boat remained over on
the southern coast, and for some time
the Captain has been on duty with
Gen. Wood, at Santiago.
"This talk of Cuba libre is all bOsh,"
declared Capt. Young to reporter at
the Grundwald: "The best CubanS do
not mention it. They only talk of an
