COMPILED FROM OFFICIAL RECORDS By NEWTON A. STRAIT WASHINGTON, D. C. : ¦ 1900 Copyright, 1900, by Newton A. StRAlT PEEFAOE.. Department op the Interior, Bureau oe Pensions, Washington, D. C, Septemler6, 1900. Sir : Some years ago I compiled, for the use of the Bureau, an alpha betical list of battles of the war of the rebellion, which I afterwards revised. Many additions thereto were made and the battles of the Mexican, Indian, and Revolutionary wars were also included. This compilation was as complete as it was possible to make it from the data to be procured at the time, and it is an accepted fact that it has proved to be of great assistance to the Bureau. Some eight or ten years ago, when the Government commenced the publication of the Rebellion Record, I began a second revision of the Alphabetical List of Battles, taking said record as authoritj^. I have also used all the data obtainable from the reports of the various Depart ments and from what would appear to be other reliable sources, rela tive to the Spanish-American war and the Philippine insurrection, such as is believed will be valuable in the adjudication of pension claims on account of service in said wars. The work of revision has been done evenings and at odd hours, prin cipally out of the office. It is now finished and, although it may have imperfections, it is believed to be as complete as it is possible to make a work of this kind. I desire to present to you the manuscript for publication for the use of the Pension Bureau, reserving for myself all other rights pertaining thereto. Very respectfully, N. A. Strait. Hon. H. Clay Evans, Commissioner of Petisions. Department op the Interior, Bureau op Pensions, Washington, Septemher 18, 1900. Dear Sir: I have to acknowledge and thank you for your generous offer of the 6th instant of permission to have printed a limited number of copies of the Alphabetical List of Battles, compiled by yourself for the use and information of this Bureau. The first edition of the List of Battles and your Roster of Regi mental Surgeons, with post-office addresses, have proved of valuable assistance to the work of this Bureau. 6968—00 1 2 PEEFAOE. You state that the work of revision has been done evenings and at odd hours. Under those circumstances I consider you justified in reserving for yourself all other rights and benefits to be derived from the book, and the same should be respected. Very respectfully, H. Clay Evans, Commissione)\ Dr. N. A. Strait, Washington, D. C. CAUSES OF THE EEBELLIOI^. The North and the South had for years held antagonistic views on two vital questions — the tariff' and slavery. The North, being largely engaged in manufacturing, desired a high tariff; while the South, whose wealth consisted of cotton, sugar, arid slaves, desired free trade. The question as to the boundary of slave territory was supposed to be finally settled by the Missouri Compromise of 1820, but when Kansas and Nebraska were established as Territories the compromise was repealed, and the question as to whether they should be free or slave States was left to the people of each Territory to decide for themselves. Then the trouble began. Both parties, the proslavery and the anti- slavery, set to work to get a majority of the votes in their favor, but the settlers from the New England States poured into the new Terri tory so much more rapidly than those from the Southern States that when Kansas voted on the proposition she decided against slaver}^ by an overwhelming majority. This defeat of the proslaverj^ people caused intense feeling through out the South, and when the Republican party came into power by the election of Abraham Lincoln, November 6, 1860, the leaders in Southern politics knew that all hopes of a further extension of slave territory were gone, and they immediately began to plan for a disso lution of the Union. The South Carolina Senators withdrew from Congress November 9 and 11, and that State formally seceded, by a vote of the people, December 20, 1860. It was followed by Mississippi January 9 ; Florida, January 10; Alabama, January 11; Georgia, January 19; Louisiana, January 26; Texas, February 1; Virginia, April 17; Arkansas, May 6; North Carolina, May 21; and Tennessee June 8, 1861. The western portion of Virginia refused to secede, and became a separate State in 1863. The war opened with the firing on the Star of the West by the Con federate batteries in Charleston Harbor January 9, 1861, and closed, practically, with Lee's surrender, April 9, 1866.

Stanton, accompanied by a military officer unknown to him, at Fort Stevens on the forenoon of July 11. Arriving by the Fourteenth street road, their carriage stopped and they alighted about 100 feet from the Brightwood Hotel and crossed the Seventh street road in the rear of the fort, or near where the car bam is now situated. They halted on a small knoll or rise of ground located on the right and not quite abreast of the fort. As they were crossing the Seventh street road they were joined by an officer from the fort with a pair of field glasses, with which he swept the country until he evidently located the object sought. He then handed the glasses to the President, at the same time pointing in the direction that he desired him to look. The glasses were in turn passed to Mr. Stanton and to the unknown officer before mentioned. The distinguished party had been there but a very short time before the officer from the fort ap peared anxious to have them move from their exposed position. The compiler was not near enougn to hear the conversation, but the uneasiness of the officer to get them to return was very plain, as shown by his gestures and movements. He finally rather abruptly took the glasses from the Presi dent's hand and returned them to their case, starting in the direction of the carriage, the party fol lowed, hut rather reluctantly. I believe Mr. Stanton accompanied the officer from the fort on his return to the carriage, the President and the other officer following. The party passed within a few feet of the compiler both in going and returning to their carriage, and' were in full view during their entire stay, which did not exceed thirty minutes. It was after wards learned that the anxiety of the officer from the fort to get the party to a less exposed position was on account of several shots having struck but a short distance from where they were standing. 164 CHRONOLOGICAL RECORD OF THE REBELLION, 1860-1865. 1864. 13.

[From report of the Adjutant-General.] On the passage of the joint resolution, approved April 20, 1898, demanding that Spain relinquish its authority and government in the island of Cuba and to withdraw its land and naval forces from Cuba and Cuban waters, the Army of the United States consisted of 2,143 officers and 26,040 enlisted men. Under the above resolution and the act of April 22, 1898, the President issued a proclamation April 23, 1898, calling for 125,000 volunteers. This was followed on May 25, 1898, by a proclamation calling for 75,000 volunteers. The approval of the act of April 26, 1898, increased the Regular Army to 63,106 men, to be reduced at the end of the war to a peace basis, namely, 26,610 enlisted men. Meeting this instruction of the Congress, the men enlisted under the above act (practically for the war with Spain) were informed, in General Orders, No. 40, May 10, 1898, that they would be granted their discharge, if desired, at the close of the war, upon individual application. By the act approved May 11, 1898, Congress authorized, in addition to the volun teers provided by the act of April 22, the organization of a volunteer brigade of engi neers of not more than 3,500 men.

The protocol was signed August 12, 1898, and on September 5, 1898, the first organ ization of volunteers was mustered out of the service. This was followed immediately by orders for the muster out of nearly one-half of the Volunteer Army. On the signing of the treaty of peace, April 11, 1899, it at once became necessary to muster out all the volunteer organizations, but, as stated heretofore, the volunteers in the Philippines cheerfully remained and rendered service until the Government was able to send regular and volunteer regiments to relieve them. The act of March 2, 1899, authorized the President to "enlist" from the nation at large 35,000 volunteers, or so much thereof as might be necessary.

Enlistments in any other States, Territories, or District of Columbia after June 1, 1865, will not be deemed as enlistments for the war of the rebellion. It is held that enUstments in the United States Navy after July 1, 1865, were not in or for the war of the rebellion. To overcome this the burden of proof is upon the claimant. In another decision it is held by the Assistant Secretary of the Interior that the technical legal termination of the war was August 20, 1866. Service rendered after July, 1865, will be presumed not to have been m said war, and that burden of proof will be upon the claimant. Service rendered after April 2, 1866, must be shown to have been rendered in some connection with the war as existing in the State of Texas.

From April 21, 1898, to April 1 1, 1899. (The protocol was signed August 12, 1898. ) For a period of ten years, from 1868 to 1878, the inhabitants of Cuba were engaged in a struggle to free themselves from the yoke of Spanish tyranny, but were defeated. The Spanish Government made most liberal promises, but failed to keep them. Hostilities were renewed which lasted for three years, from 1895 to 1898. The inhabi tants were in a most deplorable condition; the reconcentrados — men, women, and children, noncombatants — were by edict of the Spanish captain-general, Weyler, driven from their homes, crowded together without proper food or shelter, and died by thousands of disease and starvation. The attention and sympathy of the American people had for several years been attracted to this miserable condition of the Cubans, and many attempts had been made to relieve their distress. At the beginning of 1898 about 40 per cent of the inhabitants had perished. At this juncture two events happened which increased the tension in the United States. One was the exposure of a letter written by Sefior de L6me, the Spanish minister to the United States, to a friend, grossly reflecting upon the President; the other was a demand by the Spanish Government for the recall from Cuba of Consul-General Lee, which was refused. On the 25th of January, 1898, the United States battleship Maine was ordered to Habana Harbor, on a peaceful mission, by the authority of the United States, and on the 15th of February, 1898, between 9 and 10 o'clock p. m., the vessel was blown up by a submarine mine, 266 sailors loosing their lives. A searching investigation followed without fixing the responsibility. Congress immediately appropriated 150,000,000 "for the national defense and for each and every purpose connected therewith, to be expended at the discretion of the President." After fruitless effort to bring about an amicable settlement, on April 11, 1898, the President asked Congress to intervene to stop the Cuban war, and by force to estab lish a stable government on the island. On April 19, 1898, Congress passed resolu tions, which were signed by the President at 11.24 a. m. the following day, declaring "that the people of the island of Cuba are, and by right ought to be, free and inde pendent," and demanding that Spain at once relinquish its authority in the island, etc. It also authorized the President to use the entire military force of the United States to carry the resolution into effect. The diplomatic relations between the two countries ceased April 21, 1898, and it was held that a state of war existed from that date. Blockade of the principal Cuban ports was declared April 22, and on the 23d the President called for 125,000 volun teers to serve two years, and on May 24 the Spanish Government announced that a state of war between that country and the United States existed. The protocol of agreement between the United States and Spain was signed at Washington, D. C, August 12, 1898, by William R. Day and Jules Cambon. The treaty of peace was signed at Paris December 10, 1898, by William R. Day, Cushman K. Davis, William P. Frye, George Gray, and Whitelaw Reid, for the United States, and by Eugeni6 Montero Rfos, B. de .A-barzuza, J. de Garnica, W. R. de Villa Urrutia, and Rafael Cerero, for the Kingdom of Spain. Signed at Paris, December 10, 1898; ratification advised by the Senate February 6, 1899; ratified by the President February 6, 1899; ratified by Her Majesty the Queen Regent of Spain March 19, 1899; ratifications exchanged at Washington April 11, 1899; proclaimed, Washington, April 11, 1899.

The French and Indian war was carried on between the English and French colo nies in America for the possession of North America. France claimed the whole region west of the Alleghanies as a part of the basins of the St. Lawrence and Missis sippi. England claimed the country west of its Atlantic settlements. The French numbered about 80,000 whites assisted by the Indians; the English more than 1,100,000, but were divided into 13 discordant governments. The war ended in 1763, on the signing of the treaty of peace in Paris. France resigned to England all her possessions east of the Mississippi, and Spain, New Orleans, and her possessions west of that river. Abraham, Plams of, near Quebec, Canada Sept. 12-13, 1759.

The British overpowered the Americans, but not until their ammunition was exhausted. Loss: American, 139 killed, 314 wounded and missing; British, 226 killed, 828 wounded and missing. It is doubtful if Pomeroy was the principal officer. General Putnam, it is claimed, was in command. (Who was in command is not well established. ) The following is another account of the same battle: On the night of June 16, 1775, a detachment of about 1,200 men left Cambridge under orders to fortify and defend the heights overlooking Boston. Col. William Prescott, from his experience in military affairs and his being an officer in the Mas sachusetts line, had been chosen to conduct the enterprise. The start was made about 9 o'clock. At Charlestown Neck they were met by the wagons laden with intrenching tools. It was necessary to proceed with the utmost caution, for they were coming on ground over which the British kept jealous watch. The orders were to fortify Bunker Hill, but when the designated place was reached it was decided that Breeds Hill (about 700 yards distant) was the better point to hold, as it was nearer Boston and had a better command of the town and shipping. The lines for the fortifications were marked out. The men seized their trenching tools and set to work with great spirit. Prescott, who felt the responsibility of his charge, almost despaired of carrying on these operations undiscovered. A party was sent to patrol the shore at the foot of the heights and watch for any movement of the enemy. Not willing to trust entirely to the vigilance of others, he twice went down during the night to the water's edge, reconnoitering everything scrupulously and noting every sight and sound. At dawn of day the Americans at work were espied by the sailors on board of the ships of war, and the alarm was given. The captain of the Lively, the nearest ship, without waiting for orders, opened fire upon the hill; the other ships followed his example. Prescott now mounted the parapet and walked leisurely about inspecting the works, giving directions and talking cheer fully with the men. Encouraged by the words and the brave example of their commander, standing in full view at the top of the embankment with cannon balls passing him on all sides, the men completed the earthworks and prepared to meet the British soldiers.

C, August IS, 1780. — The British under Colonel Tarleton attacked 650 Americans under Sumter, killed, captured, or dispersed the whole party, and retook 300 British prisoners.
