In his direct reference to Hobson Cervera gives the impression that, while the old admiral admired the bravery of Hobson, he regarded the p'an to obstruct the entrance to -the harbor a failure. The very fact that the entire fleet was able to sail out of the harbor was in itself demon stration that it had not been bottled vtp. It is true that the ships were able to get out, but tbey could not come out under cover of darkness, and that was the factor in the case that doomed them to destruction. The admiral explained in the side light remarks referred to that his in tention was to come out Saturday night, but that he had to wait until morning because no searchlight from the American fleet was threwn upon the channel and he could not steer clear of the wreck in the dark. If the Merrimac had not been sunk in his way he could have stolen out and perhaps got away under cover of night. To have come out in the face of a searchlight would have been to fall into the hands of an expectant and prepared foe. Such a light would certainly be turned on the passage, if at all, for the sole purpose of de tecting the first indication of an at tempt to escape. It follows that the wreck of the Merrimac was a greater success than it would baye been bad it rendered the passage absolutely impassable. It closed the door of escape, rendering it necessary for the Spanish fleet to choose between stay ing in and being captured or going out under conditions which meant destruction. Hobson and his bra ' companions did not fully accomplish their intention, but it was another case of building better than they knew. The regular troops of the United States army have done so exactly what was confidently expected of them that their splendid performance before Santiago has excited less comment than have the equally he roic deed3 cf the volunteers. We all accepted as a matter of course that the regulars and their West Point officers w&uld act up to the high standard fixed by the history of their organization. Hut matters of course should not pass without rec ognition. All but three regiments of the army which accompanied Shatter are regulars, well trained, perfectly disciplined, hardy, intelli gent American soldiers, officered by men whose superiors are not found in .the armies of the world. The work of the regulars has proved this. The stories of the destruction of Ccrvera's fleet told by the different commanders unite in praising the valor of the Spanish sailors. Our naval commanders do not hesitate to give full credit to the fighting quali ties of the foe, and the expressions of generous sympathy to which they give utterance are worthy of the bravest captains in the greatest navy of the world. The Congressional Record of the future will tell us how the gentleman from Hawaii, in reply to the gentle man from Luzon, denied that he had charged the gentleman from Cuba with making an unfair statement in regard to the position of the gentle man from Forto Rico. And then, more than ever, will the gentleman from Georgia want to know where he is at. ' General Miles expressed himself before leaving Washington in a gen erous and manly way regarding the soldierly -qualities of General Shaf ter, and left no room for doubt as to the confidence be reposes in the man who has thus far conducted the cam paign against Santiago.
