Sherman's Opinion of the Conduct of the War
Department
Washington, Aug. 27.-The Interview with
John Sherman, charging- neglect and misman
agement upon the war department, created no
end of sensation in Washington and added
largely to the Interest with which war depart
ment matters are Interested. Mnnv
doubted that the venerable statesman had been
properly reported, but to Inquirers he confirmed
the accuracy of the statements attrfhiitait tn
him. To another interviewer he reiterated
some of the criticisms, and, speaking with deep
feeling of what he termed "monstrous misman
agement" adding: '
' I don't see how there can be any mistake or
misrepresentation as to the condition of aflat
among our soldiers in Santiago or In the camps
ineomciatr reports, the statements of respon
sible officers and of the men who suffered in
that campaign are all to the same effect, that
there were horrible suffering and great loss of
life resulting from Inadquate provision for the
care of the sick and wounded, and that suitable
food was not provided for those whose condi
tion of health would not admit of their eating
army rations. They were short of medicines
and suitable food and did not have surgeons
enough to perform the services which the con
dition of the army demanded.. We have fully
authenticated and undisputed accounts of the
wounded lying in the wet grass and awaitine
their turn while a single surgeon endeavored
as best he could to attend to the wounds of sev
eral hundred men. The less severely wounded
declined treatment that those in more serious
condition might be more quickly cared for I
cannot undertake to say what individual au
thority is responsible, but the facts themselves
are monstrous, and whether the fault lies with
oHicers in the field, those in the department, or
the secretary of war himself, the responsibility
should bo fixed and the nerson resnonathln
should be severely punished. It was known
that there was to be a battle: our army was sent
there for that purpose, and It was nothing short
of criminal to neglect those necessary prepara
tions lor the care of the wounded and sick, and
to provide for the sustenance of the army. An
investigation should be had at once, and an ex
ample should be made of those responsible.
The president might order an investigation, but
I doubt whether the matter can be adequately
dealt with except by congress. The persons re
sponsible should be Impeached, and congress
atone has the power of Impeachment."
fltlZH MONEY.
About 11,000 000 to Be Disttlbnted Anion
the Navjr.
Naw York, Sept, 5. A dispatch to the Herald
from Washington says:
At least $1,000,000 prize money will be dlt-
trlouted among American sailors as a result of
the war with Spain. More than one-half of this
amount will be paid in accordance with that
section of law providing for the payment of a
bounty for persons on board vessels of war suuk
tn action. The result will be turned into
the treasury for distribution by the courts,
which shall pass upon vessels of the enemy
captured by American men-of-war.
Krora the official report of Admiral Montolo,
commanding the Spanish fleet sunk at Manila
there were 1875 persons on board the ships of
his cemmand. The Spanish fleet was of In
ferior force to the American squadron, and
Rear-Admiral Dewey's men will get only lluo
for each person. It is estimated the axgregate
amount due the Asiatic fleet as the result ol
the Sulsh forces amounts to IIH7.W0, which
congress will be asked to appropriate during
the coming session. One-tweutloth of this sum
belongs to Kear-Admlral Dewey as commander-in-chief,
and he will, therefore, be '.Kl7S richer
than he was before the war.
Kear-Admlral Hampsou has reallied a snug
little fortune as a result of the war. As com-
amudertn-chlaf of the North Atlantic fleet be
will get one-twentieth of every pri.e taken in
North Atlantic waters and one-twentieth of the
head money allowed for the vessels destroyed
off bantfago and In Cubau porta, it Is eatl
mated that he will finally receive about 140,000
as his share of price money.
in determining we amount o head money
due officers and men, It w 111 be necessary for
the department to decide whether a vessel
destroyed Is superior or Inferior to ber antago
nist. If the latter, the American ship will be
entitled to J) for each person on board the
enemy. Of course, this will swell the amount
of prlie money due the rear admiral.
It la estimated that Including the Merredee,
sunk by the Massachusetts at tha mouth of the
harlKir at Santiago there were Wn persons on
board the Spanish II wt destroyed by Kear
Admlral Sampson's command, which was
superior to that of the enemy, aud the amount
of head money due the fleet will consequently
aggregate l.'4'J.AJ.

One-half of the wool stored in warehouses at
The Dalles is estimated to have passed out of
the hands of the growers. The prices realized
have been fairly good, and it is doubtful If
growers who are holding their clips for a better
market will realize their expectations.
W. B, Grubb and Moore Bros, returned Satur
day from L. D. Applegate's ranch, says the
Klamath Republican, with loads of wool for the
Salem woolen mills to be loaded on cars at
Ager. Mr. Applegate sold his clip of 20,000
pounds at 14 cents, being an increase of 0 cents
over last year's sale.
