war Beauregard writes that Johnston waived his
rank Just before the battle, accepted the Beaure-
gard plan of attack and defense and agreed to
act as the latters chief of staff July 81.
But the orders issued that day carry Johnston's
official signature, and the Beauregard plan "
was never carried out at all-because the Union
commander Unanswered differently from what
had been anticipated and the Confederate forces
had to act accordingly.
Beauregard claimed the credit for the victory
but--inconsistently, as Colonel Mosby argues
placed on Johnston the responsibility for not
reaping the fruit Of that victory. 1t is interest
ing to note in this connection that the late Gen.
.. 0. Howard who commanded a Union brigade
at Bull Run, says in his autobiography writ
ten only about four years ago, that Immediately
upon Johnston s arrival on the ground that was
to have been the battlefield he took actual com
mand and saved the day, although he had
been very modest about it, giving all the credit
to Beauregard. !" He had General Howard
adds, more than any Confederate leader de
cided genius for war"
President Davis had come out from Rich
mond to the battlefield toward evening, and to
him 'Stonewall' jackson remarked as sur
geon was dressing a gunshot wound in The
hand:
We have whipped them. They like
sheep. Give me five thousand, and | will be
in Washington City tomorrow morning.
And he no doubt could have done so. Gen
eral Howard testifes to absolute Generalization
of the Union troops and the inability of the of
fcers to exact obedience to orders from tic a.
Captain Alexander Georgian who acted as
an aide to Beauregard during the battle, has
also written memoirs and in them he says
'Jackson's offer to take Washington the next
morning with five thousand men had been
made to the president as he arrived on the
field, probably about clock. 1t was not
sunset until 715 and there was nearly a
full moon. But the president himself and both
generals spent these precious hours in riding
over the field where the conflict had taken
place.
In the light Of history it is plain that the
Confederate leaders failed to sense the com
pleteness of the Union rout at Bull Run Had
they done so, the war might have been ended
within thirty days-but with the Union de
stroyed. 1t is just well that they did not
share 'Stonewall' Jackson optimism

THAT SCHEDULE K. :"

From Lawrence Massachusetts,, it is an
nounced that z. H. G. and / L. Siestrom, the
controlling owners in the United States Worsted
company with its chain of big mills, dye works
and smaller factories, have about decided to
organize a company for building and operating
one wooden mills in Hungary-perhaps
somewhere near Budapest or Vienna-the capi-
tai required being at least $2O000OO
While IN Hungary" explains one of the
promoters, II was summoned before Prime
Minister Hedervari, who urged me to consider
Hungary in the neighborhood- of Budapest as
site for more wooden or worsted mills
He explained in what high regard Americans
are held by his people and made me some fiat
tering concessions in an effort to induce me to
build mill in his country, which is now wholly
agricultural. | will admit that | am favor
ably impressed with the outlook
1t is further explained that the capital would
be raised partly here in the United States and
partly in Hungary. But why send good Amer
capital abroad for the purpose of building
up manufacturing industry in an agricu-
tura country there? Why not manufacture
the wool at home and market the finished
product in Europe? Austria Hungary produces
only about forty-two million pounds of wool per
year, while the United States has yearly crop
of around three hundred and forty million
pounds more.
If congress is going to "let down the bars -
on wool and woolens imports, as proposed by
the house in its bill revising schedule X ?
American wooden manufacturers may begin to
feel that Europe offers better field for their
operation than their own country does With
foreign woolens invading our home markets
and home capital going into wooden manufacture
ing abroad, the industry here might easily be
put into sorry plight. Happily, the.,senate
is not likely to regard "schedule X as the
house does.

FORM MARVEL TO MoNoToNY

Eleven aviators yesterday crossed the English
Channel, veritable bevy of birdmen flying
where only recently it was an event of world
interest for a lone aviator to fly under condi-
tions that appeared peculiarly hazardous Thus
the marvel of yesterday in Intentional prog
ress becomes the commonplace of today The
spectacular features Of the cross Channel flight
are now ended except as concerns the form or
aeroplane jockeying more suggestive of the cir
Gus than of actual progress in the conquest of
the air. Over New York waters at the same
time Atwood was circling about in course
that brought him so close to Miss I4berty's
torch as to have singed his wings had it been
lighted, and little later he 'Fvolplaned' to
safety from dangerous place over Brooklyn
These feats a concluding flourish to the
notable performance Of carrying passenger
from Boston to New London and continuing
the flight to, Governors Island It is by such
demonstrations of the aeroplane s resources that
the substantial advance of aviation in prac-
ticablity is measured

HEPBURN RUNS
A foul OF ].
SHARP WILLIAMS

WASHINGTON, July IA char
acterization of the confederacy as
an infamous cause" by Senator
Hepburn of Idaho brought from
Senator Williams of Mississippi a
bitter rebuke in the senate on Sat
urday:
But for the parliamentary rules
that restrain me-" declared Mr.. Will
liams, Il would have a few words
to say about the kind of human be-
ing in whose heart such thoughts
can possibly exist"
Senator Williams had asked t
have Jim" Jones, the S2-year-old
negro who had been jefferson L
bodyguard, and in whose custod$
the seal of the confederacy was en-
trusted, retained on the senate pay
roll as a laborer,
Senator Hepburn acquiesced in the
retention of the negro for his serv-
ice formerly given to the senate, but
not because of loyalty to the glory
of an infamous cause
Senator Williams jumped to his
feet and replied with great feeling
that he was mot prepared to hear
a civilized man in the twentieth
century call an infamous cause the
cause for which his (Williams')
father had laid down his life
Lee and Jackson may have been
wrong added Mr.. Williams.
THAT the government now in
existence is a cause for congratu-
lation to the children of the men
who died with Lee and Jackson,
but | cannot express the sentiment
| have for human being in whom
such sentiments can remain as have
been expressed here.
There is no right of American
citizenship" he added, that permits
a man to insult the dead.
well, was it a glorious cause?'
asked Mr.. Hepburn.
There was much of glory in it, .
replied Mr.. Williams.
The senate sustained Williams by
a vote of 81 to IS leaving Jones
on the payroll at 1920 a year as
La laborer.
Mr.. Hepburn, following his bit.
ter alteration with Mr. Williams
voted against the negro.

LAST CHANCE.

In his highly interesting and timely article in
the Sunday Sun on the "Lost Chance of the
Confederacy is the failure of Generals
Johnston and Btauregard to press their advan-
tagc following tie routing of the Union forces
at the battle OF Bull Run on July q, 1861
Colonel John s Nosby, who was then only
private in Stuart S regiment of cavalry (the
First Virginia. points out that the statements
of Johnston and Beauregard concerning the
command just preceding and during the battle
are strangely contradictory. Johnston was the
ranking officer and the commander of the army
of about thirty-one thousand men; but in a
monograph on Bull Run after the close of the
