    STORIES OF
GUN CAPTAINS
By Lieutenant O. L. Garden, U. 8. 8.
Manning: The best "hot I ever knew
on board ahlp was a man by the name
Of Kingsbury. He wai captain of No.
( run on the gunboat Manning, and he
was alio leader of a little Salvation
army band which existed among the
hip's company.
At Santa Crux del Bur, Kingsbury
picked up the range of the shore works
In two shots, and from that time on he
planted his shells In the enemy's posi
tion with astonishing accuracy. In re
pelling an attack of Spanish cavalry
at Daiquiri, on the army base of sup
piles, Kingsbury opened with the first
gun, and Its shells were placed, seem
ingly, wherever he wanted them to go,
He was a man of remarkable nerve,
cool at all times, and of
exemplary
. i
bearing. He was In every sense of the
word an honest. God-fearing man the
very antithesis of what Is supposed to
be the make-up of a man-of-war's-man.
Kingsbury had been In the navy ever
since he was a lad. He was with Com
rsander (nor Rear Admiral) Schley on
Hie Greeley relief expedition, and he
received a personal testimonial from
that officer for special services per
formed. Throughout the whole of the
Spanish-American war, however, I nev
er knew a night to pass that Kings
bury did not collect some of his ship
mates about him for prayer.
One of the captains of the eight-Inch
guns on the cruiser Brooklyn early
earned the reputation of being about
the best shot in Admiral Sampson's
fleet. This gunner commanded one of
the mldhlp turret pieces.
On June 23 the Texas was ordered
to bombard the Socapa battery, lying
Just to the west of the entrance of
Santiago harbor. The Brooklyn was In
the vicinity ready to support, but the
orders were for the Texas to engage
single handed.
For two hours and five minutes the
Texas played on the Spanish works
She planted her shells along the face of
the battery from left to right and from
right to left. The Spanish gunners
were early driven to cover, but now
and then, during a temporary lull In
the bombardment, they would rush out
and discharge some gun at the Amer
ican ship. It was one of these Inter
mittent shots which struck the Texas
on the port bow, plowing Its way into
the gundeck, exploding there and kill
Ing one man and wound. "g nine.
Te Texas, after silencing, aparently
every gun In the Spanish position, was
signaled:
"Cease firing and withdraw.
The big ship Immediately obeyed, and
putlng her helm over, steamed slowly
out to see. She had not proceeded iW
yards before the Spaniards swarmed
out of their bomb-proofs and Into the
gun positions. In less time, almost,
than It takes to tell, they managed to
load a gun and (Ire a parting shot at
their enemy.
Owing to the orders the Texas had
received, that shot could not be return
ed; but lying 7,000 yards out to sea was
a ship which could and did reply. That
ship was the one popularly termed by
the Spaniards "The Three-Horned Dev
il," the U. S. S. Brooklyn
When Commodore Schley saw the
Spaniards fire the last shot, he directed
that Frieborg return it, and the reply
was made In the shape of an eight-Inch
shell, weighing 150 pounds. It was a
long shot 7.000 yards, or nearly four
miles and It took considerable time
for the shell to travrse the distance.
Those of us on the Manning who saw
that huge pillar of smoke leap sudden
ly from the tde of the Brooklyn held
our breath In expectancy. The Brook
lyn was firing a shot on honor for It
would never do to let the Spaniards say
they had had the last shot.
As we watched for a sign of the shell
striking, we saw suddenly a great cloud
of dust rise from the very center of the
Spanish battery, and the next moment i
puff of white smoke marked the explo
slon of the American shell. The pro
Jeclile had gone straight home. The
Americans had the last shot.
Blue-Jackets are enthusiastic fellows
when the occasion demands It; and at
the sight of the Brooklyn's shot ex plod -
Intr In tha verv midst of the enemy.
Vhere went up such a shot that day as
only men-of-wars-men can give. From
the Brooklyn we heard afterward that
Frieborg, In firing the shot, had not
taken over five seconds In aiming.
Of all the ships In the American Navy
which gained reputations for excellence
In gunnery work, none excelled the
standard set by the.superb Texas. This
Is the vessel which was once termed
the "hoodoo" of the American navy.
The pity Is that there are not more
ships like ber under the American flag.
On June tZ the firing of the Texas could
not be termed "good" or "excellent." It I
was "perfect." The men of the Texas
exhibited a skill that day which as
tonished even the gunners of other
American warships. But there was one
spectator of the fight who was enlight
ened more than any one else. That
person was Admiral Cervera of the
Spanish fleet.
From a commanding position Admiral
Cervera watched the Texas firing with
all the precision of a finely adjusted
machine. He aw her shots strike with
mathematical exactness along the face
of the Socapa works, and he beheld
with awe tha terrible destructive pow-
era of the big twelve-Inch hell.
"It was the Tesaa I feared." said
Admlra Cervera afterward to an Amer.
lean officer, "more than any other ves
sel in the American Beet, for never
had I witnessed such remarkable gun
itMnr a was evinced by that ihlp on
iTWM IS.
Mi Uktrt wu another craft which
the Bpanlth admiral feared almost at
much as the Texas, and that vessel wai
the Brooklyn.
I early formed the opinion" ealc
the Spanish admiral, "that if my flee
could get by the Texas and the Brook
lyn they would be safe. It was thi
peed of the Brooklyn and the gun
work of the Texas I feared most
Unfortunately for the admiral, he ditf
not reckon on the Oregon
But all the crack gunners of th
American navy were not confined tr
Admiral Sampson's fleet. Admiral Dew
ey had at Manila men who had mad
gome of ne hgheBt scores recardtd
These gunners mostly came from thf
Pacific squadron, from the crulserr
Philadelphia and Torktown that I
they had made their reputation on pre
vlous cruises of those two vessels. Th
score la shown on the records today
of a target made by one of Admlra'
Dewey's men with a slx-pounder gur
at a range of one mile and three-quar-
erg. Firing at a target ten feet high
twenty feet wide, this gunner placed
twenty Bhots, straight running, In th
target, and all of them practically or
the center vertical line.
Throughout the war the practice w
followed of keeping a large supply ol
ammunition constantly grouped abou
the guns. There was, of course, a dan
ger of an enemy's shot falling anion?
this ammunition and exploding the lot
but It was recognized that If rapid firf
was to be maintained, It was Impera
tlve to have the ammunition close al
hand. The predominating America
Idea was to smother the enemy at the
very outset with a fire so awful In It
Intensity that nothing living could
stand up before It. This Is Jupt wha
happened at Santiago on July 3. Th
Spanish gunners were far better men
than the people believe. They under
stood their guns; and as to bravery
there never was any question on tha
score; but from the moment the leading
Spanish ship emerged from the harbor
It was met by a fire from the American
vessels the like of which the world
probably has never seen.
The Spaniards declare that six-pound
shells were bursting on the gun decks
and In the open spaces In one contlnu
nun roar. Nothing In the shape or nesn
and blood could stand up before It. It
was a case of run for one's life or die
and to the everlasting credit of the
Spaniards It can be said that they
mostly chose to die. This, then, ac
counts for the terrible loss of life on
that day something like 600 on the en
emy's sode.
The speed with which fire can be de
livered from a slx-pounder gun Is about
seventeen aimed shots per minute; but
owing to the Immense cloud of smoke
which the brown prismatic puwder gave
out. there were but few guns crews
It Is thought which fired on July 3 over
fifteen shots per minute. The Iowa
when she first bore down on the enemy
opened with an Intense fire and one of
great rapidity. It was not many mln
urtes before that ship resembled a
great thunder cloud rent with light
nlng. caused by the almost Incessant
crash of her great and small gunB.
The rapid-fire pieces of the main bat
tery class the four-Inch, flve-lnrh and
six-Inch guns have worked up of late
to remarkably high speed. A four-Inch
gun in the hands of an American crew
has delivered five shots In fourteen sec
onds. All five shots were In the air at
the same time, the gun having been
given a slight angle for elevation at the
commencement of the firing. A six
Inch gun will easyy deliver six shots
per minute.
The projectile of a four-Inch gun
weighs 33 pounds; that of a five-Inch
gun, 66 pounds, and that of a six-Inch
gun, 100 pounds. All of these shells
are filled with powder, and explode on
striking. The explosive charge Is Just
sufficient to break the shell up into
man-kllllng fragments. If too much
powder were employed, the explosion
might reduce the shell to dust
There is a rough rule of thumb famil
iar to ordnance men, which Is that a
gun has a mile range for every Inch o'
caliber. For a six-inch gun the range
would, therefore, he six miles; an eight
Inch gun, eight miles, and so on. As a
matter of fact, the rule, If anything,
underestimates the range powers of the
gUn and now that smokeless powder Is
to be used, with accompanying higher
velocities the ranges will be evet
greater. ,
The heaviest guns carried today In
the American navy are the thlrteen
Inch weapons on the Oregon, Indiana
and Massachusetts. Bach one of thes
ships carries four of the enormou
pieces. The weight of a thlrteen-lncb
rfle Is about sixty-two tons. Hereafter
the policy, as announced, la to limit
the size of the guns In the American
service to twelve-Inch caliber. Th
twelve-Inch gun weighs about forty-six
tons, and when using the new smoke
less powder It possesses power prac
tically the equivalent of that now held
by the thlrteen-lnch gun. The saving
In weight Is what recommends th
change. The weight gained in gunl
can be utilized for additional ammuni
tion and coal.
Every day that passes sees the Amer-
lean navy more efficient than the da)
previous. The famous battleship Ore.
gon Is a more powerful fighting craft
today than she was on July 3. This li
due to the fact that a number of thi
guns the six-Inch ones are now rapid
"re weapons, whereas at Santiago thei

Commissioner Public Lands and Build

Not Entitled to Protest.
Bloemfonteln, Orange Free State.-
(Special.) Among the most Important
points that President Paul Krueger of
the Transvaal and Sir Alfred Milner,
governor of Cape Colony, and British
high commissioner for South Africa,
will have to discuss at their conference
here. In regard to the demands of the
Ultlanders. will be the question of the
dynamite monopoly under which the
Ultlanders are groaning and which the
BrltiBh secretary of state for the colo
nies, Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, has used
his utmost endeavors to remedy.
But a blue book on the subject shows
that matters In this connection have
practically reached a deadlock. The
blue book opens with a letter from Mr.
hamberlaln, dated January 13, revlew-
ng the whole question and protesting
that the monopoly was Inconsistent
with the London convention. To this
the Transvaal government replied, un
der date of March 9, controverting the
arguments of Mr. Chamberlain and
tatlng that her majesty's government
was not entitled to a protest.
Mr. Chamberlain, on April 21, how
ever, renewed the British protest, add
ing that her majesty's government re-
erves Its rights. In answer to this, the
Transvaal government replied, on May
22, with two curt sentences, that It
abided with the views expressed in its
communication of March 9.
Shortage of Artilleryman.
Washington, D.C. (Special.) A phase
f the army situation that Is receiving
onsiderable attention from those Inter
ested In the artillery arm of the service
the Increasing shortage of men to
care for the constantly increasing
umber of guns In the coast defenses.
fills question, Indeed, may have con
siderable bearing on the question of
nether a call for volunteers will be
necessary. There are not enough ar
tillerymen, It Is asserted, to take care
of the modern guns already installed
the coast defenses. It Is pointed
ut by those familiar with the situation
(hat the guns themselves are suffering
for want of attention. The emplace
ments for the heavy modern guns are
built with mathematical accuracy. In
the big guns the whole problem Is
worked out by mathematics and if the
run and Its foundations deteriorate all
the fine work In their original con
struction goes for nothing.
Germany Doesn't Object.
Washington, D. C (Special.) It Is
officially denied at the department of
state that there have been any ex
:hanges whatever between the depart
ment and the German government or
Its representatives relative to the re
placement of the Philadelphia by the
cruiser Newark at Apia, Samoa. The
subject has not even been mentioned
In conversation, it Is said, and nothing
In the nature of a protest against the
tending of the ship to Samoa has been
lodged. At the navy department It Is
said that no orders have yet been for
warded to the Newark, and nothing Is
known of any Oerman protest. The
German ambassador, Dr. von Holleben,
authorises a denial of the statement
that he had made representations in
objection to the dispatch of the cruiser
Newark to Samoa.

The magnitude of the Carnegie Steel
company's operations may be under
stood from the statement that In 1898
the company made 17 per cent of the
pig Iron produced In the United States,
6 per cent of the product of Pennsyl
vania and 66 per cent of the product of
Allegheny county. They manufactured
12 per cent of the Bessemer steel pro-
luctlon of the United States and 42 per
tent of the like product of Pennsyl
vania. The annual meetings of the various
;otton mills in the vicinity of Green-
IHe, S. C, are about over and they

sapltal $125,000, shows net profit of over
P7,000; the Piedmont mills, over $125,000;
:he Huguenot mills, $63,000, and others
jn like proportion. Now while these
profits seem large the profit for the
;urrent year will be much larger. The
Poe mill, which made $24,000 for twelve
months last year, la now making $6,000
per month.
An increase in wages for 7,500 men

per cent and 6,000 unskilled hands an
advance in proportion. The advance
will restore to the men the wages they
received in 1892 and 1893

"For years I was troubled with indiges

ed until I could scarcely get my breath.
"A physician was called and hypoder
mic injections of morphine resorted to.
I lost twenty-two pounds In nine days
and was left wholly unable to take
any nourishment. For one year I car

ready for an emergency. All this time
my stomach was very sore and sensi

in the state, but they failed to give me
relief.
"I finally made arrangements to go to
Chicago to be treated, when I chanced
