Had Many Dinlcuities to Overcome In

WASHINGTON, Dec 20.-The Navy
department has made public q report
from Admiral Schley covering that
part Of the operations and movements
Of the flying squadron from its sail
ing from Key West for G~enfuegos, up
to but not including the first bonn
bardment.
1t shows that the commodore was
not at first convinced that Cervera was
not in Cienfuegos harbor, but that he
sailed for Santiago as soon rs possible
on receiving news that the Spaniards
were there. He met with innumerable
delays by tho breaking Of machinery
in different vessels and lack Of fuel.
The c~oaling of his vessels from colliers
was attended with much difficulty,
owing to the rough seas. He finally
located the enemy and established the
blockade as soon as 1t was possible for
him to do 50.
