The Swivel hnir Heroes.

(Thomas f. Logan. in l4esiie's)
Army officers in Washington are be-
coming exceedingly sensitives on the
subject of departmental service They
bitterly resent the thoughtless sneers
which, on more than one occasion,
have been echoed on the floors Of
congress. Take. for example, the case
of Colonel William X. Grove. chief OF
the subsistence division of the quar-
ermaster's corps. and the man re-
sponsible for every meal served to the
soldiers in this country or in France.
Colonel Grove was chief duartermast
er of the Panama Canal zone when
war was declared against Germany.
He applied at once for place in the
lighting service in France, His rec
ord entitled him to special eonsidera-
ton. lie enlisted az private in the
national guard in 1892 and, within
six years. worked his way up to the

was wounded once, promoted three
times, twice recommended for the
medal Of honor, twice mentioned in
orders and three times recommended
for a hrevet commission. Tnfortu-
nately for his ambition TO serve in
the infantry. he showed special talents
as an executive He was selected as
chief of the subsistence division last
year and has made a remarka BILE rec
ord. Under the most difficult circum-
stances, the army invariably has been
well fed. Colonel Grove, like a good
soldier, has done his best in the job
to which he was assigned by his
superiors. His preference for the
fighting service does not figure in the
situation.

SAN DIEGO SENT TO
BOTTOM BY A MINE
Report of Board Of Inquiry Disposes
of Rumors That ship Was Sunk
by "A Torpedo

Washington, August e.--T-he United
States cruiser San Diego was sent to
the bottom by an external explosion Of
mine. according to the report Of the
board of inquiry. made public tonight
by Secretary of the Navy Daniels. The
report disposes finally of rumors that
the ship was sunk by a torpedo from
a hostile submarine High praise IL
paid by the board to the captain and
crew of the vessel for the manner in
which they conducted themselves as
the boat went down
1t says particularly that the re-
marka bly, small loss Of life was due to
the high state OF discipline maintained
on board. Six men were killed and
six injured by the explosion.
The San Diego sank in twenty
minutes. The explosion occurred on
her port side, we'll beneath the water
line. but its effect was such that the
thrush of water flooded the port en-
gine-room and adjacent compart
ments, and also the fireroom. Then
the vessel began to list. The gun
crews stayed on the job to the last
minute. peppering away at all SUSPECT
Gus objects for at the time II was
thought submarine might have at
tackled the vessel. The captain. true
to tradition, was the last to leave the
ship
The radio apparatus was disa bled by
the explosion, and for this reason one
of the leutenants, in a dingy and with
several men was ordered to proceed IA
the nearest port TO report the dis
aster. He reached Long Island and
shortly thereafter a fiotilla OF naval
vessels and other craft proceeded to
the scene where all of the San Diego's
crew were picked up.
