The Oregon Plumes Henelf for the
Trip to the Spanish Coast.
The magnificent Oregon lies in
Guantanamo Bay today, a week after
her excellent work in the destruction
of Cervera’s fleet, getting in readiness
to go with Commodore Watson’s fly
ing squadron to the Spanish coast. To
say she is gelling in readiness may be
likely to give a slightly wrong impres
sion, for the Oregon has shown herself
to bo ready at any time for whatever
she is called upon to do Even now
she has most of her coal aboard and
there are no repairs required, but she
is being examined as <o her ma*
chinery, and touched up with red lead
and paint on the outside in spots
which have made her look somewhat
battered after her long season of active
duty. Her cylinders have not been
opened since she began her long voy
age, and it is desired to look into them
and see what the condition of the pie
tons is before she starts on another
trip, even of a few thousand miles—
for the Oregon’s men haVe come to
regard a journey across the Atlantic se
only a abort trip.
One reason that the Oregon has been
always ready for whatever turned up
and able to do so much without any
overhauling or repairs is that no salt
water has been used in her boilers.
Another reason io the common spirit
animating officers and men. a spirit
that makes every one willing to do any

one’s work, so long as tbe snip has
anything to do. Tbe chief engineer
has not permitted.any salt water to be
used in tbe boilers He is willing to
go thirsty and do without fresh water
generally if necessary, but insists that
tbe boilers shall have fresh water. The
only salt water that has entered them
got in by reason of a leak in tbe bilge
pumps one day. It was only a little,
amounting to a fraction of 1 per cent.,
practically nil as far as leaving salt in
the boilers is concerned. Consequently
tbe Oregon’s boilers can do today at
any minute all that they could do
when new. This is bow it has come
about that the Oregon is jokingly
called in tbe fleet a cruiser, owing to
tbe alacrity with which, when she
first came here, she started off after
possible prises, even chasing newepa*
per dispatch boats, as she was not
familiar with their appearance, and to
the speed at which she put after tbe
Spaniards, especially the Colon, on
last Sunday.
Ono of tbo things the Colon’s cap*
tain found bard to bear, hard even
among tbe hardships of that fatal day,
so hard that be fell impelled to speak
of it after hie surrender, was the fact
that the Oregon not only chased him,
bat chased him successfully ; chadK
him until with her great 13 inch gone
she was able to eend two -such shots
alongside him as convinced him of
tbe futility of farther running and
induced him to fire that pathetically
eloquent gun to leeward, the accom*

u
paniment to tbe lowering of the
Colon’s flag—tbe last shot of tbe great
naval battle. He had believed him
self to be on a fast cruiser. To have
tbe cruiser Brooklyn after him gave
him tbe feeling only of racing in his
class.
"But to be chased by a battleship!”
he said to his captors. It was too
much; enough to break him all up
had be not been all broken up already.
