the men were in great distress. Then the rudder chains, which the enemy knew were exposed on deck. were cut away.
 Meanwhile, Admiral Buchanan had descended to the gun deck to take per sonal charge of the battery, when he was struck by a projectiIe and his leg fractured. necessitating his being car ried below to the care of a surgeon.
 Just before the shooting away of the rudder chains, Buchanan had deter mined to seek shelter with his dis abled ship under the batteries of Fort Morgan. The ship had been turned in that direction. but when she lost her rudder and when the Admiral had been struck down, there was no longer any chance of escape. The Tennessee could revolve her screw, she could fire three guns at any foe that might place him. self in front of their muzzles but she could not be steered, and without that power everything was as nothing. Cap tain Johnston did not want to give her up, but one of the monitors. the Chick asaw, was still banging away at her. The Manhattan and the Winnebago, the other two, were drawing nearer and nearer, and the Hartford and Ossipee were heading for her at the top of their speed with the desire to do a lit- tie more ramming. while she was un-

 Captain Johnston returned to the pilot-house, and beheld each Federal ship either cannonading the Tennes- see or preparing to ram her. It had been fifteen minutes since she had dis charged a gun, and she was encircled by a belt of fire. Within and without, she was a picture of the havoc wrought upon a lonely foe by the strength of many enemies. Either Captain John ston must strike his colors or let his ship with all hands on board be sent to the bottom of the bay

 Of European countries Italy has, connaratively, made the greatest pro- rress in the last decade. Italian finances a0e now in healthy state and most of the bonds of the Government, of the railroads and the municipalities, etc. held abroad have been bought back and redeeemd.
 The savings of the Italian people show large gains; manufacturing in- dustries have increased amazingly. The abundant water power is beginning to he Lsed for industrial purposes, large lv for the creation of electric energy. Within the last decade the exportation of manufactured goods has advanced from Ss1, 400, 900 to $s0. 100000. The cot ion factories not only supply the home demand but export heavily to the Le vantine countries and to South Amer lea.
 Another cause of the betterment of Italy is the accumulation of property bv the Italian emigrants in the United states, Brazil, Argentine and other countries. Every year a large part of their earnings Is sent home to rela- lives and for investment. One-half of the Italian emigrants return to their native country after they have saved competency.
 Some economists see in the Italians the Japanese of Europe. They are constantly gaining in the trade with Turkey and other countries of the Le- want. and they have strong aspirations for getting colonies in Asia Minor and Africa.

know what group of capitalistIe inter. ests were to be served by this appoint ment, since Mir. Cortelyou has no stand ing before the country as a f1nancier, and is not even credited with much knowledge of fiscal problems
 The original theory of his selection was that President Roosevelt desired to conduct the Treasury through a per- sonal representative, just as he had the national campaign. Some surprise was expressed at this. as national finance had never been his speciality. It was then reported that various capitalistic leaders, notably J. P. Morgan, would find MT. Cortelyou a highly acceptable man in that post. These stories would have gained little credence but for dis closures which now indicate that Mir. Cortelyou put himself under very great obligations to certain moneyed inter- ests during the national campaign.
 Life insurance had never been made a Federal question. and though an insur- ance bureau had been a part of the original bill providing for the Depart ment of Commerce and Labor, it was struck out in Congress, so that MT. Cortelyou, as Secretary of the Depart ment, has no relation to it. But con- cerns with which his department did come into relation, notably the packers, were asked to make substantial~ com tAAputAOHS, anu tnSy ulu 50.
 It is evident today that Mir. Roosevelt in his celebrated reply to Parker's charge of "Cortelyouism.' made public the Saturday morning before election. handled the situation with consummate strategy. Commanding the attention of the country, as any great utterance of the President does at such a critical time, he issued complete denial, virtu- ally defying the other side to prove its case, but in carefully guarded language. The other side did not have the evil dence at hand, and the campaign ended with widespread Democratic depression and disappointment. Today evidence Is available which would have given an entirely different appearance to the closing hours of that contest
 The acute question now is whether the President can defy public sentiment by making the manager of this cam paign the nations Finance Minister, when his qualifications are necessarily that of a personal representative with some uncertainty as to whom he repre- SeNta

UNITED DAUGHTERS
 OF THE CONFEDERACY
(contInued from Page le.)


 
 Buchanan was master of the situation, for he did great injury to the Federal vessels, while their fire in reply made not the slightest impression on the iron shield of the Tennessee. Holding his course down the enemy's line, he pitted the Tennessee in single combat against all Farragut's fleet except the Hartford and the three monitors. Af- ter punishing them severely, he rested his vessel for q short time under the batteries of Fort Morgan.
 After this first engagement, Buchan- an, finding the Tennessee unintured, announced his intention to challenge the enemy.
 Follow them up, Johnston. we cant let them off that way" he said.
 At o'clock, when the Federal fleet was four miles from Fort Morgan in the bay and the crews were eating their breakfast, the Confederate flag ship, bereft of her allies, steamed forth alone from the fort directly to- ward the Hartford. A recent writer exclaims: Tt was one of the sublim- est scenes of a great war" Deliber- ately the noble ship moved Into the jaws of death; one against seventeen; six guns against nearly two hundred. Admiral Farragut In his report, speaks of this battle as ''one of the flercest naval combats on record" Commo- dore Parker compares Buchanan's quixotic attack on the Federal fleet to the charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava, and exclaims in the words of the French officer. Tt was magnifi- cent, but 1t was not war!''
 All that has been said concerning the desperate nature of the undertak- ing may be conceded. yet the situation demanded that Admiral Buchanan should make the attack. Nor would one have expected a man of his Iron will and determined courage to act diff ferently. The emergency fully war ranted the Admiral in seeking a sec ond conflict.
 When the Tennessee approached the Hartford. Farragut signalled his moni- tors and heavy ships to attack the flagship with their guns and with their bows at full speed. The Monongahela first struck the Tennessee, then with the side of the Tennessee in actual contact with the prow of the Monon4 gaheles the firing began. Then the fleet closed in around her and she was the center of an irregular circle of hostile ships. She fired as rapidly as her guns could be handled. while on i each side and fore and aft, she was pounded with shot and shall.
 Buchanan was not discouraged. but still endeavored to ram the Hartford. Just as he found that ship close enough and he was in as favorable position as he could desire. all of his primers, ex- cept one. failed to explode. This was the crisis of the battle; for the moni- tors now came up and from this mo- ment to the end, the Tennessee vainly contended against the only instrumen- talities which could bring her disas- ter. The three monitors had her al their mercy. She could drive shot af- ter shot into the wooden ships, but her solid projectiles were powerless against the ironclads. whose gunners from their shot-proof turrets could coolly atm and fire in perfect security At length the smoke pipe was shot on The gun-deck became filled with smoke, and the heat grew 60 great that
