THEY ALL SWEAR BY M'CALLA
New York TimesN


Had secretary Long tried for years he
could not have done a thing that would
have proved so popular with 'Jacky' as
the very thing he did the other day when
he made his special order commencing
Captain McCalIa for his services in
time a petty officer in the navy. Among
the men served under was McCalla, and
in common with my shipmates I learned
not only to admire but to actually love
the man he was perhaps a martinez at
times, but when we came to think it all
over, even the sea lawyers with which
every ship is infested generally came to
the conclusion that McCalla was all right
ana tnat what he had done was for the
best We all knew that he was as abSO-
iutely fearless as man could be, and THAI
he would never ask a man TO go where
he was not willing 80 go and to lead
himself 1 never met man in the service
who had seen duty under him but swore
by him as often as they SWOre at other
on1cerS. The men all agreed that they
would face the devil himself if McCalla
captain was suspended and lost his rating
as a result of the charge that he struck
one of the marines on his vessel with
ms SWORD, tnS men on the snip, with one
or two exceptions agreed that the offender
got what he deserved The stir that was
made about the matter was due to one of
your New York papers that was aching
for a sensation and seized on this incident
to show that it was a friend of the poor
sailor. which was of course a bit of
demaGoSy that was intended TO make talk
and sell papers The exaggeratiOn of the
the department at Washington was de-
cefved and McCalla received what has al
ways been believed in the navy to be un-
just punishment / told you this over in
the Brooklyn navy yard a half dozen
years ago and said that time would
straighten things for MCCalla if there ever
should happen to be a war and he had a
chance TO show The sort of stuff he was
made OF. Naturally, l now feel like throw
ing an I told you so al you See what he
has done since then down Cuba way, out
in the Philippines, and now in China. If
You viii go over to the Baltimore and
talk with the men just in from the far
east. you or anyone else can get from
their lips ample PROOF that Secretary Long
has done the right thing and that every
enlisted man will say Amen to what he
has written III wager, too, that every
one OF them who has served under or in
the same fleet with him will tell you that
McCalla is one Of Gods noblemen, and
that there is not a Drawer, a nobler, a
more just or a more trusted leader than
this man who was so unjuStly punished
at one time by a political court martial
L never met but one sailornaan who would
not go through any hardship or take any
risk necessary to serve Captain McCaIla
and he was a drunken fellow who served

HOW JOE LETTER BEAT
PAT SHEEDY AT POKER
New York JnurnaI.N

Paris, Oct 12.-JOe Letter of Chica go,
brother of the vicerine of India, and
PAT Sheedy of New York today con-
Guided a poker game which will ever
remain historic 1t was an all night
session. Mr.. Letter is SIS, 900 to the
good; MIR. Sheedy is out that sum To-
day Mr. Sheedy, who is a professional
gambler, is frank enough to say that
young Letter is just as good an anna
teur at the cards as he is a profess
sional.
I'm blue, of course, = said Sheedy,
/ but I'm cheerful 1t cost me a big
pile-the dudes game I thought had
a clnch, but L was easy money
The young millionaire son of L. T..
Letter and the gambler never met over
the green cloth till yesterday. II
started casually. A friend introduced
them on the Boulevard. There was
talk of cards and a recital of how Mr..
Letter won $4,000 on a pair of sevens
| last winter in New York at the Wal
dorf-AstOria. John w. Gates, L. L.
Evans and John A Drake were in the
game with him then.
Il guess 1 can do you" remarked
Sheedy, smelling a chance to win out
something extra on his Paris winnings
at the exposition. n
Not on your life, b'responded young
Letter with a laugh. a--r
In a twinkling the pair agreed to
meet for blood in the evening Each
rushed to the bank for fear they could
not draw funds before the days clos
| ing.
Say, Pat" said young Letter, I'm
going to bring $50, O00.''
"An right" laughed the New York
gambler. I'm only going TO draw S25,-
GOO. That's enough to bring your $780,
900 my way"
They met at the Club Capucines in a
private room. The play lasted eight
hours. There We're six witnesses. For
three hours everything came Sheedy's
way At midnight he was $4,000
ahead. In the small hours luck
changed and he lost so rapidly that
his nerve went to pieces. Letter re-
manned as cool as a cucumber and bet
nigh till he had Sheedy on the run.
Sheedy tried to recoup with several big
bluffs, but his nervousness betrayed
him every time. His biggest winning
was 800 pot, but young Letter raked
in a $4,000 pot with a pair of tours.
He had quit S25, 900 ahead.
I guess L miScalculated that young
/ dudes abilities and luck said Sheedy
after the game was over.

ROosEVELT's ORIGINAL VIEW

CNew York Worldly
Former Governor Roosevelt is the
most imperial of the imperialists in his
defense of expansion by. conquest, gov
eminent by force and militariSm gen
orally Yet even Roosevelt was not
always crazy. In his Life of Benton"
written less than five years ago, he
said:
1.-THE man of the west stood where he
was because he was a conqueror; he
had Wrested his land by force from its
rightfUl Indian lords; he fully intended
to repeat the same feat as soon as he
should reach the Spanish lands lying
to the west and southwest; he would
nave done so in the case of French
Louisiana if it had not been that the
latter was purchased and was thus
saved from being taken by force of
arms This belligerent, or, more prop
erly speaking, piratical way of looking
at ne1ghbOring territory, was very
characteristic of the west and was at
the root OF the doctrine of manifest
destiny page I'D
Roosevelt (page 40) defines McKin-
ley's Duty and Destiny" known in
Benton's time as manifest destiny
as a Generalization TO swallow up the
land OF all adjoining nations who were
too weak TO withstand uS-a theory
that forthwith obtained immense popu-
iaTity among all statesmen OF easy in
ternational morality"
No flibuster of cur times has shown
more easy international morality
or has taken more naturally to the ''pi-
ratical way of looking at foreign ter
rltory than has Roosevelt himself But
writing in 1895 he was able TO draw
this clear and everlasting distinction
between the 0eaceable EXPANSION of
American ideas and institutions over
contiguous, sparsely settled territory,
and the forcible conquest and military
rule of danSoly nominated and forever
unassi9ilable Malay pandemonium'
5000 miles away. This is mis- statement
OF Benton'S doctrine:
VI course no one would wish TO see
these or any other settled communities
now added to our domain by force; we
want no unwilling citizens TO enter our
Union; the time to have taken the lands
was before settlers came into them.
European nations war for the possess
sion of thickly settled districts. which,
