Damage by Spanish Shells on the
Cruiser Brooklyn"

naval campaign in the West Indies
which his detractors would do well II
to keep in mind, fact of a kind II
which is popularly supposed to
bring more glory to him whom it
concerns than do any other of the
happenings of battle.
Admiral Schley's ship, the
Brooklyn" came out of the cam
paign carrying more of the scars
of battle than we're left by the war
upon any other ship in the whole
American navy. After the Santi-
ago fight she showed more shot
holes than the Oregon" "In-
diana, Iowa, Texas, "Glouces-
ter" and New York combined.
and in the number of separate hits
recorded she was exceeded by only
one of the Spanish cruisers, the
"Almirante Oquendo,"
When the Spanish feet left the
harbor and turned to the westward,
the Brooklyn" was the only ship
that stood directly in their way,
and, in accordance with prear-
ranged plan, the fire of the Span
iards was concentrated upon her
in the hope of "winging" our fast
est vessel, and so enabling the fleet
to escape. She was thus exposed
to the united attack of the Span
ish ships at the only period of the
fight when they seemed to have
had the range of our vessels; that
is to say, during the first exchange
of shots. Fox it is curious and
very significant fact that when our
men went aboard the Spanish
cruisers after the surrender the
sights ON their guns were found
to be still set at the 1000 to 5000
yards range at which the enemy
opened fire. 1t is evident that the
excitable Spanish gunners COM
pletely lost their heads, and failed
to make the necessary changes in
the sights as the ships closed in
on each other.
This error on the part of the
gunners, coupled with their own
statement that the Brooklyn" was
the object of their first and con
centrated attack, goes far to ex-
plain the severe punishment of
this vessel compared with the COM
parative immunity of the other
ships of our fleet. When SchIey
saw the "Vizcayan alter her course
so as to head directly for his ship
he naturally supposed that it was
the intention of the Spaniavds to
close in and sink him with the ram
Ia matter easy of accomplishment
where it is a case of four vessels
against one), and with excellent
judgment he swung his vessel to
starboard, making complete hal f
turn, and took up position for a
running fight down the coast with
the flying Spanish vessels.
Now, if the reader who is inter
ested in the subject will turn to a
table published in our issue of
September 10, in which we analyz-
ed the gun fire of our ships at San
tiago, he will find that in the larger
rapid-hre calibers thegreater num-
Der of hits was made by the 5-inch
