cutter McCulloch, an auxiliary dispatch
boat, entered the harbor of Manila at day
break on the lst of May, and imme
diately engaged the entire Spanish fleet
Of II ships, which were undsr the protec'
.ion of the fire Of the land forts. After
stubborn fight In which tae enemy suf-
fsred great loss. these vessels were dc.
stroyed or completely disabled and the
water battery at Cavits silenced. or our
officers and men not one was lost and
only eight injured, and those slightly. All
of our ships ESCAPED any serious damage.
BY the fourth Of MAY Commodore

station at Cavite, destroying the fortiflca-
tions there and at the entrancs Of the bay
and paroling their garrisons. Tho waters
Of the bay are under his complete control.

tectsd.
