IAVTB SMALL RECORD OF LOST
Seventeen Men Killed and Sixty-seven
Wounded in Spanish War-
j
Washington, Oct. 11 —A tabulated ‘
statement of the casualties of the war ]
with Spain has been sent to Secretary '
Long by the surgeon general of the ]
navy. The statement begins with the ’
action at Manila, May 1, and includes ‘
the actions off Cienfuegoes, Cardens', (
Ban Juan, Porto Rico, Guantanamo, 1
Santiago, June 22 and July 3; the
fight of the Eagle* July 12; the Ban- i
croft, August 2; the Amphitrite, Au
gust 6, and the Yankee August 11.
Altogether there were 17 killed and
67 wounded
Only one man died subsequently as
a result of his wounds; 54 men were ’
discharged and relumed to duty; six ;
were invalided from the service, and
six continue under treatment. ,
It is remarkable that of the 10 men 1
wounded in the battle of July 3, eight ’
had ear drums burst. This is explained i
by the fact that in all other actions ■
the men put cotton in their ears, but
when Cevera’s fleet came out they did
not have time to take this precaution. ;
The greatest number of casualties ,
in a single engagement was at Guan* *
tanamo, whan six marines were killed
and sixteen were wounded. Os the
wounded nine returned to duty, four
are still under treatment, and three
were invalided.

▲ Sensational Story.
One statement in connection with
the investigation of the conduct of the
war is that an effort will be made to
place the blame for the hurried de
parture from Tampa to Santiago, and
for the mistakes and sufferings of the
Santiago campaign, on Admiral Samp
son.
is that be sent to the
President and to Gen. Shafter a state
ment that with ten thousand men
Santiago could be taken in forty-eight
hours. The admiral Santiago
and was supposed to know the situa
tion thoroughly. Wbat was more
natural, therefore, than that an expe
dition should have been sent to San
tiago just as quickly as it could be
prepared?
It is far from certain that there is
anything in this story. It doesn’t
sound as if it had much of a founda
tion. No doubt Admiral Sampson
was in constant communication with
the President and the navy depart*
ment, but he was at no time in a po
sition to say exactly what the condia
tion of the fortifications aronnd San
tiago was. If he sent spies ashore the
information they secured was doubt
less sent to Washington, and the
authorities there were as capable of
forming an opinion of its value as he
was. The Sampson story is doubtlesa
one of the numerous stories set
afloat by sensationalists, and which
live but for a day. The impression
they make is not lasting. The mis
takes of Santiago campaign, whatever
they were, cannot be saddled upon
Admiral Sampson, and it is safe to say
that nobody wants to saddle them on
him.—Savannah News.
