V EXPLANATION OF THE CLAIM THAT
IT IS AGAINST US. "
Tn Peculiar Kind of Bookkeeplna
Employed In th United State
Treaaar- Department Mr. Vaa Vor
fcl luwtri lorn Qaeatlone.
. I have received from different local!
tiei a number of letteri making inquir
iei and snggeatlona conoerning the table
published in The Nonoonformiat of
Not. 94. I have answered most of tbein
briefly with tbe promise that I would
answer more folly tbrongb yonr col
umns. Professional eogagementa bave
canied a longer delay in doing ao than
I bad anticipated,
t I am not snrprlaed that tba table of
exporta and importa of merohandiaoand
money metali, in tbe face of tbe exult
ant claima that bare beun made by tbe
gold atandard prera, haa been read
with tome astonishment if not incre
dulity, particularly by thoie wbo tbna
bad their attention oalled to the matter
for tba flrat time. It baa been to gener
ally the claim that our foreign trade re
lationa abow a balance in our favor tbut
when attention ia oalled to the truth,
that In SO yeara ending June 80, 1808,
there bave been btf'two yeara duriug
which tbe balanc, hi lint againat nit,
that trntb ao surprn, 4 muny people that
it aeema to tbem unbelievable.
It ia dlflloult to understand how it
haa come about tbat the American peo
ple bave for ao long been 10 minted iu
regard to tbe bookkeeping of oar foreign
trade tbat tbey bave mistaken the losu
column for tbe gain and tbe gain col
nmn for tbe loss. Tbey are astonished
when told tbat the bookkeeping of the
treasury department in 25 years really
abowa an aggregate Uw of f.'), 0.2, 100,
C04 of the wealth produced by thia
country within tbat tiimi,
It baa been tbo almost universal cus
tora to consider only the Merchandise
we bave aold and exported aa indicating
a balance of truriu in our favor. The
inquiry baa rarely been inudu, "What
did we got fur it?" It la impossible tbut
a man in business cim in ouy way or
(or any purpose purt with more tbun be
receivca and have a giiin. It cannot bu
less Impossible for a tuition to do ao.
It ia perfectly cleur (but in tbe book
leaping of the treasury department in
the summary tbe column tbat ahowa
'exceaa of exporta over import" ia the
,oia column, and tbe column that abowa
"exceaa of importa over exporta" ia the
lain column. In order to determine
whether in oor foreign trade there ia n
balance in onr favor or against na we
swat find tbe auin of all commodities
txported and also tbe aura of all com
moditiea imported. Tbe difference be
tween tbem will indicate the loaaor
tbe gain daring any given time.
It rauat be remembered tbat in our
foreign trade bookkeeping no ancb thing
aa money ia or can be proporly includ
ed, for money cannot be either exported
or imported. In foreign trado gold and
tilver are aa much commoditiea aa are
wheat and corn.
In the treasury department are tbreo
tablet one covering all "merchan
dise," one covering "gold ore bullion
and coin" and one covering "ailver ore
bullion and coin." These three tablea
include all exporta and importa. Wbcn
they are consolidated," tbe result must
abow whether there hai been a balance
in our favor or against on. If the table
abowa an excesaof exporta over imports,
it ia a balance against ua and clearly a
losa of our wealth. If the table ahowa
an excess of importa over exports, tbeir
balance la iu our favor, and clearly a
gain in onr aggregato wealth. Iu tbe
tablea which you publish in your num
ber of Nov. 21 tbo balance is shown to
be largely against us. This balance
shows a large aggregate loss during tbe
last 28 yeara to tbe peoploof thia coun
try. I quote from one of tbe letters I bave
received:
"I think that if tbe United Statea
treasury la a complete measure of the
entire results of exporta and imports of
inarebanriise and precious metals, you
are correct, liut ia it a complete tneus
ore?" In what way can tbese three tables,
merchandise, gold and ailver, fail to in
clude all exports and all imports? There
are no commodities exoept gold and sil
ver not included under tbe term "mer
chandise," and thesa three tables in
clude all commodities that it is poind bio
to export or to import. The only way
that tba treasury reports can fail to be
a "complete measure" is tht gold r
ailver or aoma article of merchandise
should escape the atteutiou of the tie
partmmt in getting in or oat of th
roaulry and thus (ail Iu be included In

and ailver aa certainly aa any other
oommodity will ahow aa merchandise.
Thia question, and otbera of similar
oharaoter received, indicate, I think,
tbat many persons fail to remember
tbat money ia a pnrely national creation
and tbat it ia impossible tbat money
oao appear aa an export or import, be
cause it is impossible to either export
or import it. Tbe moment an American
ooln passes tbe limit of our territory It
ceasea to be money. It ia nothing but
metal. There ia nothing tbat can be tbe
aubjoot of foreign trade exoept commod
itiea, The metala, ores, bullion and
ooin are no more money in foreign trade
becanae tbey are estimated In dollara
(onr money of account) than merchan
dise ia money because it ia estimated in
dollara.
Exported merchandise sold In a for
eign country ia often paid for by billa
of exchange, aent home possibly in the
mail. The treasury department of conrse
takea no account of thia, because a bill
of exchange adda nothing to the wealth
of a country. It brings nothing into tbe
country. It ia aimply an order from
somebody outside for aomebody iuaideto
transfer property that is already in tbe
country. It ia an order for some bank
tbat ia here to pay tbe exporter for bis
prodnota sunt abroad. If the drawer of
the order haa nothing bere with which
to pay, he will bave to aend it. He
must send it in either merchandise,
gold or ailver. It will then appear as
an import upon tbo booka of the treas
ury department.
Thia aame writer aska another ques
tion: "80 far aa money reports of the treas
ury go, do tbey not refer only to the
money belonging to the treasury?"
Most certainly not. Aa stated, tbe ao
called "money reporta of the treasury"
are tbe reporta of exporta and importa
of gold and ailver not as money, but ua
commodities. Aside from thi.i, however,
it is not the property of tbe government
any more tbun tbe merchandise export
ed and imported is government property.
Tbe tremendous force of the awful
showing made by tbe figures of tbe
treasury reportj ia fully appreciated by
tbe part of the gold atandard advocates
wbo really know anything about tbe
aubjnet. Tbey know full well that
it ia the direct result of the falling
prioea of merchandise and tbe increas
ed purchasing power of dollara tbat
baa brought tbia condition of tbinga
about. In tbeir complete inability
to make an answer they coin a lie
to meet it. Tbtty know tbat tbe bal
ance abown by tbe tablea aa an ex
ceaa of exporta over Imports represents
an exportation of our wealth for which
we bave received nothing. Tbey bave
lately aet np the claim that tbia greut
aum atanda to onr credit in foreign
oonntriea and pretend to believe that it
ia a balance in our favor, from which
we can draw when we desire. Tbia lie,
manufactured for tbe purpose of decep
tion, ia the foundation for tbe claim
tbat we are now a creditor nation, a
claim which no man that ia not either
a knave or a fool will make.
I am glad to have received ancb com
ments and iuqeiriea. Tbey are suggest
ive and instructive. If in anything Iain
mistaken in either my facta or my con
clusions, I certainly desire to be cor
rected, and I will thank anybody wbo
will correct me. No right thinking
man can possibly bate any Interest in
being deceived or in deceiving himself.
What we all desire or ought to desire is
to know what are tbe exact facta aud
then to be able to draw correct conclu
sion from them. Fluvius J. Van Vorhia

MIL
OOD'S brigade
was led on the
march from El
Poao down to the
bloody crossing
on Jnly 1 by the
rough riders.
a i a i ai .
iwncu me into
was lormea lor
tbe charge, tbe
rough ridera
were at tbe front,
a fuot that waa
oritioiaed by
some of the ofli-
I .1 u .
ucr vi tun regu
lar regiments in
tbe brigade.
Tbey held tbat it
waa done aimply to give its loader tbe
post of honor, General Bomuer auid
tbat such waa not the cuse, but tbat it
waa the turn of the rough ridera to be
at the front tbat day,
. Home time after Bumner'a brigade,
under Colonel Carroll, including the
Third, Hixlh uud Ninth (colored), fal
lowed by the rough riders, as the rd
vaitco of Wood's brigude, had pusrad
on beyond Climes' position ut El Poso,
the two remaining regiments of Wood,
the First United Htates and Tenth (col
ored), sturted forward. By the time
these two regiments reached the dunger
point iu tbe roud tho Spanish fire bad
somewhat ubutcd. Iu fuct, but for the
balloon the col until would have escaped
casualties until it reached the Han Juan
fords. The balloon moved just ahead
of the Tenth cavalry, which was first
in the column. It waa high enough to
draw fire, and one of tbe ollicers auid at
Camp Wikolf, " What the balloon didn't
get hit ns." The firing at tho balloon
also caused some casualties from shrap
nel and bullets in tbe ranka of the First
cavalry. -
Fiually the balloon waa pulled down,
tbo observers got out, and it waa tied to
a tree, where it flouted above tree tops
aud still drew fire until the Hpauiurda
destroyed it. One of Kent's infuntry
regiments had a similar experience with
the bulloou, for it waa passing down a
trail to the left of a roud where the
cavalry his marching and just abreast
of it.
At Hell's Crossing tbe Tenth cavalry
lost half a dozen men. As tbe shells at
that point passed overhead with tbeir
peculiarly startling shriek, the negroea
straightened np at attention and aaluted
tbem. Tbe two regiments lay half or
three-quarters of an hour in the river
bed, which was dry at the time, except
at the deepest part, where the river cur
rent runs. In order to escape tbe fire
they then moved out, changing direc
tion twice and passing iu frout of Car
roll's brigade to cover under a bigb
bank, and lay there another half hour.
From this point, looking through the
treea in front, as described iu the story
of Carroll's cavalry brigade, tbe Span
ish position could be seen. It waa well
kuown to tbe ollicers what was expect
ed of the lino, aud finding in front of
them a barbed wire feuoo of six strands,
all bauds went to work to clear away
tbo obstruction. Tbe men pulled out the
posts aud twisted and broke tbe wire,
ail tbe time under fire.
A boy hero waa developed at tbia
time in tbe son of the colonel of the
Tenth, Theodore N. Uuldwin, Jr.
Yonug Baldwin waa a civilian, wbo
went along to see tbe fun. He was 19
yeara old. He bad picked up a carbine,
intending to tight along with the rest
aud waa foremost iu tearing down the
fences. Afterward be charged op tbe
bill with tbe line, aud President Mo
Klnley Commissioned him for bia gal
lautry. After the fence bad beeu level
ed the line of Wood'a brigade waa
formed, with the rough ridera in frout.
Much had bee u said about this, tbat
aud tbo other one having iuitinted the
charge on iSuu Juan hill. It is evident
from what baa been told of the situa
tion in Carroll'e brigude that tba liuo
oil U vie aud louu Were not li ft to tbeir

answered, "Don't fire on onr men; fire
when yon see tbe Spaniards." The
First waa in tbe third line of tbe brigade.
Colonel Viele'a caution about firing
waa timely, for there were many ob
ataclea to be passed which would break
the line, and besides Kent'a infantry on
tbe left of tha cavalry waa already
working toward the blockhouse. The
two oolumna were to converge slightly
before reaching their separate goala and
might in tbe excitement of battle mis
take each other for tba enemy. Tho
gallant Hawkins, leader of Kent'a ad
vance brigade, Impatient to dash at Ban
Joan blockhouse, which be declared
that he could take in tbe flank, passed
np the road to the front, while tbe cav
alry was baited in tbe bod of the creek.
Said a oavulry officer, "Hawkins was
the fluent soldier there, and tbe cavalry
knew him well." All the older regular
oflloers are known to all the other ofTl
oera and to tho long service privates aa
well, because promotion takes thorn
from one regiment to another. Hence,
although Shaffer's waa a new army, it
waa by no meana an army of atraugera.
It waa about noon when the line of
the cavalrf division was actually formed
for attack on the ridge in its front, tbe
ground having been reoonnoitered aud
points for attack shown to leaders of
regiments and squadrons. As usual in
such cases, tbe exact time waa not noted
down, and porhnpe tbe term noon may
be used to cover tbe time between 13
and I o'clock. An officer of the First
cavalry auid it took three boura to pasa
down tbe roud from El Poso to "Hell'a
Crossing, " and that the march began at
8:130. About 1 boura aeeni to have
been passed in the bed of the creek by
some of the cavalry, perhaps by all.
It should be remembered that tbia
waa midday,' and tropical midday at
that. The soldiers, when inactive, could
barely keep their feet. They wore In a
valley without a breath of air. They
were wet, aoma to the kneca and soma
to the waist, from wading in tbe
atreams. For more than an hour they
bad aeen tho dead and wounded brought
into the angle, victims of the Hpanlsh
marksmen in frout of tbem on tho crest
of the ridgo. It waa thia time, if at all,
that tho general impulse to charge tbe
hill ewopt down tbe line. Regiments,
battalioua and companies hud boon
formed to attack. Full directions bad
been given with tbe exception of the
word "go. " It Is said that just then a
volunteer field oflloer, wbo all tho morn
ing had been rather beard than aeen
outside of his own regiment, oalled ont
with a theutrical wave of tbe hand:
"Tbia bill must be taken I If there are
three men here wbo will go with mo,
we will take it 1" Already parta of tbe
line were in motion, and ahortly tbe
entire column surged forward, carrying
tbe excited volunteer along with it, or
perhaps swallowing him np, for be was
not aeen by the regulara again until
they had planted their atandarda on the
flrat hill.
Obstructions were encountered every
