cruisers in position TO check the juno
tion OF the reserve squadron of the
Japanese In the rear Of their line of
battle.
BY a lucky shot the Naniwa struck
the Texas in her vitals, exploding a
boiler and wrecking her engine rooms,
while chance torpedo sent her to the
bottom. The appalling nature of the
mishap to the Texas was hardly noticed
In the confusion, while 1t was but short
work for the New York, coming up, to
reduce the Naniwa to submission.
With the flower of the fleet destroyed,
the unharmed American battle-ships
were making unresting havoc among
the remaining unarmored ships of the
japanese. Again the last of the Jap
anese torpedo boats made a dash, but
the whitening fire from the small guns
checked the movement before material
damage was done. Under the protec-
tion of heavy fire from the American
ships, our own torpedo boats made q
counter dash, and while but three
lived to return. the loss to the enemy
was four of her largest cruisers.
Approaching that the battle was lost,
the japanese commander-in-ch sig
nailed a general retreat. With all steam
they made for Honolulu, and once be-
hind line of torpedo boats and under
the protection of the shore batteries,
they felt sure they could maintain an
effective resistance.
THE RETREAT.
Rear Admiral Miller signaled to his
vessels to pursue, and battle ships,
cruisers and gunboats We'd with one
another in their efforts to catch the
foe. They were successful, and before
the japanese had reached their goal
only their speediest and few remaining
ships of force were left to face another
battle. The struggle was short. sharp
and conclusive, though it cost us four
of our gunboats and the substantial
disablement of two of our cruisers. Too
far from home to run for japan, the
few remaining Japanese turned for
Honolulu. Their remaining topedo
boats tried to cover the rear of their
flying sqadron, but they were soon
brushed aside and perished under a
well directed fire from the secondary
batteries of the American ships. Some
of the Japanese vessels, however, did
reach Honolulu ahead of the pursuing
American vessels. Night coming on.
Rear Admiral Miller decided TO wait
until morning before making further
demonstration.
At daybreak the next morning a flag
of truce was raised, the japanese ap-
preciating the hopelessness Of escape
or effective resistance.
Surrender was quickly effected, and
with that submission the end of the
war was practically accomplished
In his report to the department Rear
Admiral Miller was unstinted in his
praise of officers and men while under
fire and during the long, trying hours
of pursuit; and this Is particularly
significant when it is remembered that
the Americans, unlike the japanese,
had never been exposed before to fire
under modern conditions Of naval war

BROOKLYN AT WORK.
When the commanding officer Of the
Brooklyn saw the two cruisers coming
toward him he maneuvered so as to get
between them. In that he was success
full, and although he received the con-
centrated fire of both vessels he was
able to give each of them successive
broadsides, in which the ponderous
force of his S-inch' guns told with
frightful effect. The Brooklyn was also
badly disablei and her lighting effici-
ency settled by a torpedo from Jap
anese torpedo boat, which struck just
under the bow. The Brooklyn began to
settle by the head at once, but her
many watertight compartments kept
her from sinking. Grasping the dan
ger of the Brooklyn, the Baltimore and
the San Francisco rushed simultaneous
ly to her rescue, and under the effect
i've convoy the wounded craft was
borne safely to the rear. In the mean
time the Fuji had struck her flag to
the Iowa; the Hei Yen. severely dam
aged by the fire of the Brooklyn, was
sinking, and the Chiyoda, engaged with
the Newark, much her superior was
manifestly out of the fight.
In the meantime, the battleships Mas
sachusetts, Indiana and Oregon, togeth-
er with the Maine and Texas and the
armored cruiser New York, were hav-
ing their attention occupied by the for
mer Chinese battleship, now the Chin
Yuen-Go; the old battleship Fusoo, and

confidence gained in the battle of the

The battle was manifestly going

hope of neutralizing defeat, but the
murderous fire of the Gatlings and g.
