STINGING REBUKES
Administed Interlopers By The
Volunteers.
Washington, Aug B.—“ People
who ara trying to make it appear
that the volunteer.soldier is afraid
of anything iu Cuba, from mic
cobea to Mauser, have been fitting
ly rebuked twice with 24 hours,”
said a leading official of the War
Department to.day
“No sooner,” he continued, “had
Senator Bacon protested agaiust
sending a Georgia regiment to the
front, than the regiment’s Colonel
wired the Secretary of War that
n ither he nor his men had any
sympathy witn the movements to
keep them away from Santiago.
‘ ith true sodierly pride, they ob
ject to being branded as sunshine
warriors.
“At the same hour almost the
Sixth Illnois met and unanimous,
ly petitioned the Secretary to rend
them to the fever-infected camp
to relieve their brothers of ths
First Illinois, who are sick almost
to a man.
“ This is the true military spirit
and it is the spirit which makes
the American soldier invincible
on land and sea .”
A great deal of adverse criticism
on Senator Bacon’s communisa
tion was indulged in at the War
Department this morning by both
civihons and military men. It was
conceded on all sides that he had
placed the Georgia troops in an
awkward position, and that only
the prompt action of Colonel Ray
in repudiating him had saved the
State from disgrace.
Miles’ Work Wed Done.
Washington, Aug. B.—Up to
this point not the slightest com
plaint has reached the war de
partment respecting the manage
ment of the Porto Rican cam
paign, a tribute to Gen. Miles’
ability. No word has come of
soldiers without food or ammu
nition, or ot sick men without
doctors or medicine, nor is the
inward movement of the Ameri
can army delayed for lack of
artillery, owing to Gen. Miles’
insistence upon keeping his
artilleiy in the very vanguard
and giving personal attention to
the commissary and quarter
master’s departments.
