than Butler would have accepted his fer
tune and remained content. But he has
for appointment to high army post. and
was recently gazetted for a position OF
great responsibility in the reorganized
forces. There were murmurs of discon-
tent, but the matter might have gone
through with no more friction had Butler
kept quiet. He could not, however, stand
the criticism which had been aroused. He
resented the charge that he was failure
in the war and that his course before
Ladysmith was weak and unavailing. 50
the other day after a dinner he made a
speech in the course of which he let out
the admission that he had advised General
White to surrender Ladysmith. He defied
his critics claimed the whole responsibility
for the Natal campaign. and assumed the
offensive in his own defense.
The result of this outbreak is that the
demand for Buffers scalp has grown to na-
tional proportions. The British public alb
hors the thought of surrender under any
circumstances, and it cannot tolerate this
spectacle of general who has failed in
his own work admitting that he would have
precipitated that untold calamity, the loss
volve serious ministerial crisis. The king.
it is almost certain, will be drawn into the
affair and the threatened result is a gen.
eral row which will for the time eclipse

BulIer's Hull.

General Sir Redvers Butler. after months
Of obscurity which should have been well
come after the unpleasant notoriety won
for him by his campaign in Natal, has
sprung suddenly into the most conspicuous
prominence in England today as a man
whom the ministry wants to honor and
whose disgrace the public is demanding.
Buffers work in Natal was far from being
brilliant. even though it eliminated in the
relief Of Ladysmith- Sent to South Africa
as the commander-in-chief, he had an op-
portunity such as comes to few men. But
he had neither sufficient force nor capacity
TO grasp it. Had he had more capacity he
might have managed with his otherwise
inadequate force 1t is an interesting prob
lem in military speculation TO wonder what
Roberts would have done with Buffers
army under the same circumstances In
to the time that Roberts created a diver
sion in the west by capturing Cronie and
threatening Bloemfontein and Pretoria and
thus forced the Beers TO weaken their hold
on Ladysmith, Butler had failed. He had. ii
IS true. kept the Beers from overrunning
Natal, and so perhaps he contrived to spare
the British the humiliation and danger of
q rising of the Dutch colonists in Natal
and Cape Colony. His relief OF Iladysmith
was largely in the nature of an accident,
after disastrous attempts which the Beers
had easily repulsed.
When Butler returned to England he
scored some measure of triumph out of the
fact that Ladysmith had been relieved. The
public was willing to overlook the cost and
tne failures in View Of the fact. There was

Torpedo Boat Dangers.

Several weeks ago the sinking of the tor
pedo boat destroyer Cobra was reported
from the coast of England and various
theories Were advanced to account for the
tragic occurrence. The Cobra was a tur-
bine boat. built the famous Parsons
plans. and capable of an extremely high
speed 1t was asserted on the one hand
that this system of propulsion is defective
in that it does not permit a rapid reversal
of the engines and that the Cobra had un-
doubtedly suffered because of this defect
when suddenly confronted with a reef,
through inability to check her speed.
Again, 1t was suggested that the high speed
qualities were accompanied by such light
ness of construction that the vessel was
untrustworthy and that her boilers had
exploded. Now it is reported that another
nght-draft boat of the same structural
type, though not of the turbine engine sys-
TEN. had a recent experience which throws
light on the loss of the Cobra 1t seems
that this craft, the Crane, was steaming
through deeply rolling sea when she was
suddenly caught bow and stern on the
crests OF two rollers and hung for a mo-
ment suspended thus, with her hull exposed
in the middle. This sudden strain caused
the frames to buckle and had 1t not been
for the immediate subsistence of the great
trough thus formed the Crane would un-
doubtedly have gone to the bottom as sud-
denly as did the Cobra. If this occurrence
Is instructive at all 1t is to the point that
these long, light-draft craft are more dan
gerous to their own crews than to those of
the enemy. They cannot be sent far from
harbors. save in light weather. lest they be
caught in rolling and broken in two.
Or II they are made of heavier draft they
must sacrifice in aggressive efficiency. The
experience of the Spaniards with their tor
pedo boats in the Cuban campaign does not
Justify any, high regard for these tiny craft
In a great sea fight. The tendency is to-
ward heavier guns and ships and perhaps
recent happenings. in time of war and
peace, will demonstrate the wisdom OF
sticking to the larger types and relying
upon the direct attack of ship against ship
rather than upon these accessories which
involve so elaborate a system of counter
attack and defense and such a serious
danger to their own operators.

TanimanN,s Power.

The speaking has begun in the New York
campaign, and orators on both sides are
pouring out full measure. Nobody Is mine
ing his words. One gathers at a glance
what the reformers think of Tammany,
and what Tammany thinks of the reform
ers. Nor is anything being said in Pick
wickin sense: When the reformer de-
nounces Tammany as a nest of blackmaii
ers and vice protectors he means just that;
and Tammany is equally in earnest when
1t denOunces those who are now banded to-
gether against it as an aggregation of
goody-goodies and false pretenders, The
atmosphere is surcharged with exchanges
OF sulphuric compliments.
And yet an explanation goes with 1t all.
AS for instance, there are men now in the
ranks against Tammany who If altogether
candid might say: II mean every word 1
uttering-for the present 1 may be
fighting with and for Tammany this time
next year. and three years hence, but if
am 1 shall be able to give a fairly good
reason for my change of base. And I
shall be much in earnest then as 1 now
am" Tammany with equal frankness might
admit: Bad as think some of these fel-
lows are who shout against me today. / shall
not hesitate If the emergency presents itself
in some other race to offer them a commits
sion. And 1 may add that they themselves
will determine by the energy and ability
they display against me the grade of that
offer when l invite them over on my side.
As the phrase of the street is, don't like
no cheap man. I shall carefully note the
performances Of some of my enemies in
this race so as to be prepared to apprase
them at their proper value when the scene
shifts and 1 go out for recruits
1t Is. indeed, a most curious mix-up. And
a striking feature of the case is that 1t is
not at all new. This sort of thing has been
going on for years. Some of the most
prominent men in the political life of New
York have fought Tammany in this way,
and then subsequently surrendered to its
Establishments and accepted office at it's
hands Mr.. Shepard simply holds the CEN
ter of the stage for the moment. But where
he now stands, covered with confusion and
drawing upon his best ability for something
resembling a reason, others as able have
also stood, and others of as good ability
will in future stand While Tammany
keeps up its organization, and Is permitted
to represent a great party in the CONNER
cial metropolis of the Union, 1t will con-
tinue to possess such power will act as
a temptation with ambitious men, and
bring many such to deal with it on its own
terms.
