fCOEIiESPOXDENCE OF TOE DISPATCH.!
"Wheelisg, October 10. The engage
ment bet Keen the armies of Thomas and
Hood, known in history as the battle of
Nashville, was one of the most important of
the war. Had the rebels been victorious in
that engagement, the outcome of the rebel
lion might have been wholly different. If
Hood had got Forth the result can scarcely
be conjectured. Xaturally, that battle has
been treated of by all the historians of the
war, and on one point they all seem to
agree.
It is recorded in history that in the few
week's prior to the battle of Nashville,
both President Lincoln and General Grant
were dissatisfied with Thomas' failure to
attack the enemy. Grant, in his own story
of the engagement and the events which
preceded it, says: "Hood was allowed to
move upon Xashville. and to invest that
place almost without interference. Thomas
was strongly fortified in his position, so that
he would have been safe against the attack
of Hood. He had troops even enough to
annihilate him in the open field.
THOMAS' DELIBERATE MOVEMENTS.
"To me his delay was unaccountable, sit
ting there and permitting himself to be in
vested, so that, in the end, to raise the siege,
he would have to right the enemy strongly
posted behind fortifications. It is true the
weather was very bad. The rain was falling
and freezing as it fell, so that the ground
was covered with a sheet ofice that made it
very difficult to move. But I was afraid
that the enemy would find means of moving.
If he did I apprehended most serious re
sults, General Thomas' movement being so
deliberate and so slow, although effective in
detente. I consequently urged Thomas in
lreqnent dispatches sent from City Point to
make the attack at once. The country was
alarmed, the administration was alarmed,
and I was alarmed. At last I had
to say to General Thomas that I should be
obliged to remove him unless he acted
promptly. He replied that he was very
sorty, but he would move as soon as he
could.
General Logan happening to visit City
Point about that time, and knowing him as
a gallant, prompt and efficient officer. I
gave him an order to proceed to Nashville
to relieve Thomas. I directed him, how
ever, not to deliver the order or publish it
until he arrived there, and if Thomas had
moved then not to deliver it at all, but
communicate with mc by telegraph.
EEADT TO MOVE AT LAST.
After Logan started, in thinking over the
situation, I became restless and' concluded
to go myself. I went as far as Washington
City, when a dispatch was received from
General Ihoiaas announcing his readiness
at last to move, and designating the time ol
his movement. I concluded to wait until
that time. He did move, and was successful
from the start. This was the 15th of
December. General Logan was at Louis
ville at the time this movement was 'made,
and telegraphed ihe facts to "Washington
and proceeded no farther himself."
This story, substantially, is told by all
the writi-rs who have touched upon this part
cf the history of the war; yet, it is now de
clared on high authority that, as to the part
General Logan took in that history, all
tnese writers, including General Grant, were
misinformed, and the revised version of the
narrative cast a new light on the character
of General Logan a light which shines the
brighter because, so far as can be dif covered,
General Logan never made public the facte.'
HUTLEE SUPPLIES SOME DETAILS
Judge K. H. Cochran, President of the
"Wheeling Bridge and Terminal Railway
Company, a soldier in Thomas' array in the
war, and" now a member of the Executive
Committee 01 the National Council of Ad
ministration of the G. A. E., has just re
turned from a trip to Boston. "While there
he called on Benjamin F. Butler, an old ac
quaintance, and in their conversation Gen
eral Butler told him a story which he said
had never been printed, but for the entire
truth of which he vouched.
General Butler savs that early in that
December General Grant summoned him to
City Point to hold a consultation. Hefound
there a number cf prominent Generals. To
them General Grant stated his uneasiness
lest through what he considered Thomas'
needless delay, irreparable harm might be
done. His fear was that Hood would get
North, and as Thomas did not seem disposed
to move in response to repeated urgings, he
had concluded to remove him. The ques
tion was whom to send to Nashville to re
lieve him.
General Butler suggested: "Send Logan.
Heis competent, active, prompt Moreover,
he is popular with the soldiers, and his as
suming command will cure the growing dis
content in that army."
The suggestion was adopted, and the order
written relieving Thomas and placing Lo
gan in command, not to be published, how
ever, if Thomas had moved when Logan
reached Nashville.
LOGAX'S MAGN-ASIMITT.
Logan left City Point in the first week in
December, and went to Louisville, as his
tory reiaies; oume qiq not stop there as
has been generally supposed. '
General Butler says General Logan went
on to Nashville, saw Thomas, saw his prin
cipal officers and his army, saw the situa
tion and the preDarations for operation..
Thomas had not moved and was not readv
to move. Logan's orders were positive; he
was to relieve Thomas unless the latter had
moved. But from bis observation
and irom what he was told,
Logan concluded that Thomas
was doing the best he could and as well as
anybodv could do to prepare to attack
Hood. He believed that it would be un
just to remove Thomas just as he was pre
pared to act. Had he been removed then,
the new commander could have been ready
to move in a day or two, and the movement
would probably be victorious. To a man
ambitious as Logan is said to have been,
the temptation to act upon his orders must
have been great
General Logan quietly returned to Louis
ville with the paper giving him Thomas's
command in his pocket He reached Louis
ville December 13, and remained there,
silent, until the 15th, when he heard of
Thomas's victorious movements. Then he
telegraphed to General Grant that he would
go no lurther.
"Logan's magnanimous conduct on that
occasion," said General Butler, "and his
moral courage in accepting the risk of
putting his own judgment, after personal
inspection, against the authoritv of his
superior at a distance, were traits of a char
acter understood only by those who knew
him best Logan told me the storv at the
time in confidence, in answer to an inquiry
as to why he was so long in reaching Louis
ville. I have never given the story to the
1 public, but I do not feel that it is wrong to
tell it now' that both Thomas and Logan are
gone.
"The battle of Nashville was the first in
the war in which the conquered army was
literally annihilated, and in history when it
is finally made up, that victory will rank
above the achievement of Sherman's march
to the sea. Sherman took the flower of his
own and Thomas' armies to pierce through
the rotten shell of the Rebellion, and left
ThomTs a culled force to meet the real foe."
STILL THEY COME.
EXCURSIONISTS FltL THE EXPOSITION
BUILDINGS.
To-Day Musical Programme British. Airs
Tills Evening "Wonderful Artificial
Songsters Voters Think the Show
Should bo Kept Open Next Tear as
Long as People Come.
"A 'swell' crowd to-night, is it not?"
queried one of the English iron and steel
delegates at the Exposition last evening, as
he surveyed the visitors through a dainty
eyeglass. And a "swell" crowd it undoubt
edly was. Friday is usually the antithesis
of Saturday. The former day is as much
the pet day of the classes as the latter is of
the masses. Large excursion parties were
also present last night, there being regu
lar invasion of visitors from the country
side. Mr. Jones' wonderful mechanical singing
birds are just now the principal topic of in
terest in the big show. Efforts are being
made to get the leader to let his feathered
songsters perform to-night as well as on
Monday night, and it is probable that he
will consent.
This is to be British night All the.E?
glish, Irish and Scotch airs are to be per
formed. "Tullochgorum" will mingle with
"The Roast Beef of Old England" and
"Garuyowen."
Now that the Exposition is drawing near
a close, there is no little discussion as to the
advisability of keeping it open longer, if
not this year ppxt In order to see how the
general public think on the question The
DisrATCH yesterday took a vote at the
Exposition. There were only 6 negative
votes cast against 141 affirmative ones.
Probably the most reasonable answer was:
"Keep it open as long as folks come." Qjtf
voter said: "Sixty days would be reason
able." Following is to-day's band programme:

PIANOS AND ORGANS.
S. Hamilton, 01 and 93 Fifth Avenue.
Men, women and children congregate
about this exhibit at all hours and enjoy to
the utmost the fine tones which emanate
from the various instruments. It is one of
the busiest spots in the Exposition building,
and the corps of assistants have all 'their
time filled in distributing cards and telling
about the different piano? and organs, and,
above all, the church pipe organ, whose rich
great sounds reached to the farthest points
in the galleries, covering completelv the.din
of voices and scraping of feet The days
are few now in which people may enjoy this
exhibit, but there is no known law to pre
vent their perpetuating their visits to the
warerooms, where they cau see and hear
just the same class of instruments, only in
greater numbers, and they can pass along
the long lines and pick out just the make
and style to suit them without being kept at
arms length by prettv chairs and railings
so necessary at an exhibit At the ware
rooms can be seen a number of standard
makes of both pianos and organs which are
not represented in the display through lack
of floor space, but they are in their way
just as desirable as any shown at the stand.
ADOS TO KIVEB NAVIGATION.
Arthur Kirk & Son.
The splendid models of dams, locks, etc.,
shown by this firm in Mechanical Hall,
have met a most cordial reception from the
public Anything practicable to assist
navigation in the uncertain waters of this
section will be gladly welcomed, and Mr.
Kirk, who is being heartily indorsed by en
gineers and rivermen generally seems to
have found the exact systems for this pur
pose; to be able to raise a river steamer, or
to lower it from one level to another, without
having to stop the engine is a remarkable
thing, and any who have undergone the tedi
ous hours occupied in "passing through the
locks" wili appreciate this invention, and
hope for its speedy adoption in "Western
Pennsylvania.
Pittsburg "Wire and Railing Works.
Tavlor & Dean have a display of most
useful articles in ornamental shapes on main
floor, but the attention of excursionists from
far and near should be called to their manu
factures in apparently indestructible ob
jects, such as fire escapes, iron stairways,
iron shutters, crest ings, elevator enclosures,
and enclosures for cemetery lots, stable fit
tings, mangers, feed boxes, heavy iron or
wire window guards and doors, tower and
lawn ornaments, and everything strong, yet
handsome in the way of cast, wrought and
ornamental railing and fencings. The places
to see all of these solid iron goods will be
found at 201-3-5 Market street

WELLS AT WILDWOOD
Much Interest in the Result of the

ESTIMATED DAILY PRODUCTION.
A Meeting of the P. P. A. at Butler In

STR0KG ASTI-STAKDAED MOVEMENT
rsrzciAt. TELEGBJUI TO tub Tisn.Tcn.i
"Wildwood, October 10. Since the rush
of visitors yesterday to Wildwood the field
has assumed a quiet air. The intelligence
from the wells is of no special importance,
and there is bnt little change frdm yester
day, from the most authentic sources the
total production of the field is in the neigh
borhood of 7,600 barrels, yet one or two
scouts claim the output is 8,300 a day. The
Bingheiser well is the center of attraction,
and is being closely watched by a number
of producers. There is no little specula
tion as to the correct status of the
well, some claiming that it is jast
through the bowlder, while others who
have kept close tab of the venture
say it is anywhere from 6 to 15 .feet in the
sand. Being a test well of great import
ance, the presumption was general among the
producing fraternity here, that when the well
would reach the sand it would be worked
for a mystery. This conclusion Is not well
founded, as Mr. Griffith, ono of the principal
owners, said that everyone interested in this
locality of the field, would get a square deal;
and that the well was open to all visitors.
Last night abont 12 o'clock tbe jars broke,
leaving a part of the tools in the nolo, and sev
eral days will elapse before the well is drilled
in.
The Harlcy well is reported to-night as
through the bowlder, and at the present rate of
drilling will find the sand tbe first of the
week. Those who claim a thorough geological
knowledge of tbe nortbeastorn end,
of the field venture the opinion that if tbe
Harley is not .a duster it might as well be. as
far as a paying investment is concerned. Gib
son & Giles' Harbush No. 6 is doing from 6 to 7
inches an hour to-night In this venture the
pay was found deeper in tbe sand than in tbe
other Harbush wells, and a number of prac
tical operators are of tbe opinion that there is
another pay farther in. No. 3 Harbush is mak
ing 37 inches an hour to-night: No. 2 Harbush,
22, while No. 1 shows no deviation from yester
day's gauge.
Phillips Talks to the P. P. A.
Butlek Last nieht the Butler Assembly of
the Producers' Protective Association held
their first meeting in Boiber's Halt Tbe
meeting was held behind closed doors, and no
one was admitted but members of tbe associa
tion. Tbe ball was comfortably filled and no
Utile interest was manifested in the proceed
ings. Representatives from Washington,
Pittsburg and other points were present and
participated in the deliberations. Mr. T. W.
Phillips was president of the meeting, and ad
dressed his fellow-suffering producers at length
In an earnest and impressive manner.
The Dispatch scout was unable to
learn everything the veteran producer said,
but was informed from the most reliable source
that he embraced the opportunity presented
and squared himself with the independent ele
ment of the producers. In the course of his
remarks upon the sitnation he said that his
name had been peddled about tbe country, and
that reports that ascribed to him as being too
closely allied and identified w(th the standard
to take an active part in the independent move
ment Some bad even gone so far as to ques
tion his honesty of purpose and gave out tbe in
timation that he was a wolf in sheep's clothing,
or in other words, a minion of the Standard.
These charges ho emphatically denied,
and gave his bearers to understand
he was heart and band with them,
ana in fall accord with any movement
that would ameliorate their condition. It
was the sentiment of the meeting that the as
semblies of everv section in tbe oil regions
should meet and whatever was done by the in
dependents should be accomplished through
the P. P. A. By some of the more enthusiastic
who were present It said that last night's meet
ing sounded tbe keynote of a general uprising
ot tbe P. P. A. all along the line, and that it is
tbe beginning of one of tbe most gigantic ln
denendent movements in the history of tbe in
dustry and the most formidable opposition tbe
Standard has ever encountered. The assembly
will meet again next Thursday night Tbe fol
lowing preamble and resolutions were adopted:
"Whereas, It has been alleged that Thomas
W. Phillips. President of tbe Producers' Pro
tective Association, and of our local assembly,
having sold a pertion of his producing interests
in Butler county to the Standard Oil Company,
he would be unwilling, as well as unable, to act
In connection with our association, either as
President or for the ivelf are of the producers;
and,
"Whereas. We have heard the reply of Mr.
Phillips to the unjust conclusion wbich is at
tempted to be drawn from his action aforesaid,
and, whereas, Mr. Phillips has expressed a
willingness to call a special meeting of the
General Association of tbe Producers' Pro
tective Association, as provided by the constitu
tion, and that he is ready and willing to act in
harmony with and support any measure for the
benefit of tbe producers that may be adopted
bv said association,
"Resolved, That we hereby express our con
tinued confidence in him as one of the leading
producers, and his entire loyalty to us, believ
ing him now to be, as be always bas been, a free
and untrammelled friend of tbe producers of
oil, one of whom be is. as well as a friend of
tbe lanoring classes connected with the indus
try. "Resolved, That being in a position to know,
we farther answer said charge and firmly be
lieve tbe allegations to be false. We farther
believe that no other man in tbe oil region of
Pennsylvania has done or is now doing more to
obtain a fair price for erode oil and good wages
for labor than Mr. Phillips.
"Resolved, That in justice to Mr. Phillips
and as a notice towhom it may concern, the
foregoing preamble and resolutions bo given to
tbe press of the oil country."
At Work In the Sand.
Montour The Forest Oil Company's No. 2,
Eckert, is through tbe sand, v itb a small show
of oil. Tbey intend to shoot it to-morrow. Tbe
Elcho Oil Company's No. 2, McElhern, is four
bits in tbe sand, and showing for a fair pro
ducer. Sill, Odell & Co. have not got the tools
out of their No. Phillips, yet Their No. 'A
McElborn. should get the pay by Saturday.
Charles Ford's Beacom lot venture is dry, but
will be drilled to the Gordon for gas. Theven
ture exciting the most interest in that section
these days is the well being bored by the Bridge
uater Qas Company in the ravine runniuc east
from RoDb station, nu tbe Montour Railway. It
Is down about 2,000 feet, and companies who
have leased tbe Robh, Scarborough and two of
the Phillips farms in tbe vicinity are anxiously
awaiting results. There was a pretty good
sbow ot oil in tbe lower part of tbe Hundred
foot hat the salt water cot the better of tbe
oil. After tbe salt water was eased off the
casing collapsed and nearly a month was spent
fishing. The well was freed last week, but on
Wednesda of this week tbe tools were stuck
again and fishing is again the order of tbe day.
Members of tbe company state that they intend
to go through all tht known strata in that
neighborhood.

Western Agents Agitated Over a Reduction
by the Alton Road.
Chicago, September 10. A meeting of
the general freight agents of Western ronds
was held here to-day to consider tbe lumber
rate situation in connection with the recent
order of the Inter-State Commerce Com
mission concerning the alleged discrimina
tion against Eau Claire. The St. Paul
decided to join the other lines in anew
statement to the Commission. This change
of base apparently averts, temporarily at
least, the threatened general demoralization
of rates.
Trouble has broken out in a new direc
tion, however. Notice given by the Chi
cago and Alton of its intention to reduce
the lumber rate from Chicago to Kansas
City is causing a commotion. The lumber
merchants appear to have been quietly
boycotting the Alton for agreeing recently
to an advance. The matter is expected to
produce a lively session of the Western
Freight Association on Tuesday.
