COMPARISON OF ARMY WORK. Sa:i! Pot-Intell.grncer. The British parliament Is about to make a gran: of lv,ooo to Lord Rob-t-r for his service in Siuth Africa, and on account of thoe services he is lulled in Great Britain as the "Kreates: living s Idler." His great advantagr seem to tw that his good work stinL ou: li such sharp contrast to the blunders of his predecessors in South Africa :h.v: it ! given !n popular estimation a rt"i:i- us valu". Ye:, frankly speaking, i: d.'-es not appear that any of she w irk or tjte British in South Africa will s:anl com parison with the work done by Amvi can genera's and American armies, bvh in Cuba and !n the Philippines. Th work of our men has not bj.-n properly estimated, either at home or ahroiJ. f:r the paardoxlcal reason that '.t was ne to cleanly, rapidly and w.'l. Tf in :.: initial operations, either n iVcja or 'n the Philippin-.s. there had l.M.n i f-v of the blunders displayed by 'lie 3:;i:.-h in South Africa, the suc-cee !i g work would have been much brig.Ven? 1 in popular estimation by the contrast. The work, in fact, was so well dene that the magnitude of 'he military pr:b- mt solved has been lost stunt cf, stli the generals who led our armies ii tvo received merely perfunc: vy praxis, rather than the er.thusias ic c-n;omlumi which have btvn given '0 Jr.".l al Rb erts. The operations tvhl.'h J'r.r.l Shafter conducte-d successful w-.r-fully as Important as arv whi-h lii British general handle 1. yet in p-.rular estimation in this country .-''jft r l.ii k. considerably of b-ing a h-r. Th- un broken success f our .irmi'-s ! result in magnifying 'h' sjrve ( nur own men. but rather to an un i--r--:i-m.iting of the s:re-g:h aril val'-r f :h defeated enemy. Yet our operations in Cuba t'..ne wr vtrry far from being ins.gnftVa.it a r m parcd with those. :h- British army it South Africa. The records of the Spin ,sh forces who wvr- d-f'-ate in Santi ago will not suffer by com; arisen w.th any record made by the Bo-r. At Mi? ersfonteln the British army r-T-a'.-1. broken and demorillzed, aft-r losses not n'-arly so severe prop r:i -nat-ly as th-f American army encounter-1 at Pan Juan hill. The percentage- of Am-rlcan loss at El Can-y was wry mu h grea;-r than Duller had at Colensi, wh-r- his irmy was checked and dr:v-n bark, alth the loss of a largo shar'. .,f his ar- tillery. Meth Methuen halted demoralized, an i : waited for weeks for r-inf orcerr.-ntH. af- ter louses Insignificant prop Jrionately beside those which Shafter's army re- ! ceivea, witnout cnecKing me Aincro an advance. On the other hand, the Span ish fought on the def-nse fully as well as did the Boer, and in som- r-prs much better. The Spanish were no: driven from a single position without sustaining a loss out of all proportion cr ater in actual casualties than any Uoer force ever sustained in any en gagement in South Africa. In :he brief operations around Santljgo the Spanish lost, in actual killed and wound-d. more m n than the Bors had loi-u aft'-r the South African war had b-en prolmgel for many months. There lias not been a single battle wag-d in S'ju:h Afrb-a in which the British met with su. h d p.iat'.' r.-sistince, suffered such a per centage of loss, or were compelled to inflict such sever; loss on the enemy le fnre he would currend-r or rfivit ;is Shafter encoutered in every engage ment preceding the final surr-n l r f Santiago. In the Philippines, again, th-- un broken success of the Atn-iican arms has tended to destroy tin- !j'i-i"."lve and prevent the real value of the j r vkc performed from lie.ng timi-iugliiy appreciated. Yet the military probl in." to be solved in the Philippines wre -M iy whit is important as those encountered in Sau:h Africa.
