Fort Fisher.

S. B. Zeik, Bandon, Ore, wants to
correct some statements in regard to
the capture of Fort Fisher. He was in
both expeditions, one under Butler in
December, 1862, and the other under
Terry in 1865, and went thru the bat
tie from start 70 finish. He did not be-
long to any New York command, nor
was Gen. Curtis in command at the
time of the capture. Gen. Adelbert
Ames was in command of the charging
column, while Gen. Curtis commanded
the First Brigade. Gen. Pennypacker
commanded the Second Brigade and
Col Bell the Third Brigade. all of the
Second Division, Tenth Corps. These
brigades stormed the fort and took it
at 10 p. m. If the comrades will re-
member, it required the full force of
the three brigades as well as that of
the greatest naval fleet ever assembled
to capture the fort. All this was none
too strong. A lighter force or one less
determined would have failed. The
Confederates garrisoned there were vet
Grams who fought desperately When
the Third Brigade entered the fort soon
after the other two had effected lo1g-
ment Gen. Ames led it, and remained
at its head thruout the battle. Com
rade Zeik was alongside him all the
time, and knows that he directed every
movement as the fighting went on from
parapet to parapet. As to the company
that crossed to Fort Caswell, Comrade
Zeik thinks it was a regiment instead,
and was from ScnOfield'S army.

A Tar's Experience.

Henry Crois, Jarrettsville, Md, says
that when the war cloud began to grow
black in December, 1860, he was on
the old John Adams at Hong Kong.
With Is others he was ordered aboard
the Niagara, and sailed for Boston,
where he arrived April "a. 1861, and
found that Fort Sumter had surren-
dered. The Niagara was ordered to
blockade duty, and was sent to Charles
ton. .Comrade CrOis was there trans
ferred to the Dan Smith. the smallest
OF Farraguts fleet or mortar schooners,
and at the operations at Fort Jackson
lay near the Maria J. Carlton. After
the passage of the forts the Dan Smith
carried the news to Havana and to the
blockading fleet of the South Atlantic,
arriving at Ship Island. where he again
met two of his old officers of the Mag
ara, Schley and Guest When Gilmore
made his raid into Maryland Comrade
Crois went with the schooner to the
Gunpowder Bridge, and was then trans
ferred to the Primrose. which was after
ward stationed near the Navy Yard at
Washington, when the rebel army was
ready to swoOp down upon the Capital.
He thus served in one of the largest
(4,500 tons) and smallest (65 tons) ves-
sells of Uncle Sans Navy. He left the
service in 1867 and re-entered in 1881.
He would like to hear thru The Ma
tional Tribune from shipmates and 9TH

PHELPS DODGE LINE NOT BUILDING IN
 BOX CANYON

In spite of rumors which gained some circulation throughout the territory a few days ago, to the effect that the Fl Paso & Southwestern railway was planning to construct high grade line through the Box canyon, no such work is in contemplation, according to state. ments made to the Silver Belt yester- day by J. l.. Campbell, engineer of maintenance of way of that railroad.
 Although rumors have been circu- lated recently, connecting the Fl Paso X Southewestern with the construction of line through the Box canyon of the Gila river, there is no truth in these reports" said Mir. Campbell in speak ing of the matter.
 As far as l know our company has no intention of entering this part of the country, at least at the present time, and no surveyig party connected with the company has been working in the Box canyon country.'
 Mr. Campbell held conference with J. C. Mcclure, engineer of maintenance of way of the Randolph system yester- day, presumably with relation to the righ of way matter now under consid- eration between the Arizona Eastern railway and the Old Dominion Copper Mining & Smelling company He will return to Fl Paso today.
