The Prize Money.

The following are the complete figures
of the bounty money in the Santiago and
Manila campaigns As much misstate-
ment has been made it will be well to give
the leading facts here.
Rear Admiral William L. Sampson has
drawn from the government in prize money
S25, 1877 Al, and he expects about S1O,-
900 more when the Maria Theresa case is
settled. Rear Admiral Schley has drawn
S149.5 and has been allowed So, 334,
which is yet to be paid.
Capt. F. Z. Chadwick, who was with
Sampson, has drawn Sl4, 02608, and has
vet coming to him 81, 321 SO, in addition
to what he expects from the Maria Teresa
Capt. Cook, of the Brooklyn, and Capt.
CLARK, of the Oregon, who were in the
fight throughout, have yet received moth
ing, but Cook will get So, 1902 and
Clark 81, 989.06. Commander Vain
wright, one Of the real heroes of the war,
will receive only s435. 6S. Rear Admit
raj Watson gets only SIS. 30,
Admiral Dewey for his work at Manila
has received in bounty SO, $40, about one
third as much as Sampson, and about one
half as much as Chadwick, who was not
only not in the fight at Santiago, but who
himself testified that he kept back an ex-
preston of congratulation to Schley.
So here we have Schley, the man who
fought and won the battle, allotted less
than one-seventh as much as has been paid
to Sampson, who was twelve miles away,
and less than one-ffth as much as the sum
allotted to Chadwick.
If these figures were not official they
would seem impossible. They constitute
the most amazing injustice in the records
of this government.
