or Santiago de Cuba, July 10. via
Kingston, Jamaica, July 1.-THE board
of survey appointed TO examine the
wrecks of the Spanish ships and TO in
quire into the nature of their injuries
reports that only one ship can possibly
be saved. She Is the Infanta Maria
Teresa. the former flagship of Admiral
Cervera.
The hull of the Cristobal Colon shows
she was only hit six times, and then
only by shells of eight-inch, five-inch
and six-inch calibers. This verifies the
story that the commander of the Girls
tobal Colon surrendered because he
saw she could not get away from the
Brooklyn and Oregon. and TO continue
the battle meant sacrifice of life.
The Vizcaya showed she had been
riddled by the Brooklyn and Oregon.
She had not been struck by projectiles
larger than eight inches. There was
no sign of her having been struck by q
shell OF IL or 10 inches. Her upper
works were riddled by one and six
FOUNDER shells. Nearly all of these
shells exploded inside the superstruc-
ture, and must have driven the men
from the guns. This confirms the
story OF Capt. Eulate that the Brook
lyn's secondary battery fire was so
terrible that the men deserted their
guns

Dandy, Off Aguadores. Cuba, July 10,
via Port Antonio and Kingston, Jamai-
ca, July 12.--The brooklyn, Indiana
and Texas, under Commodore Schley,
began the bombardment of the city OF
Santiago at 5:15 this afternoon in obe-
dience TO a request from Gen. Shafter
conveyed by a signal from the shore.
The warships lined up from east to
west quarter of n mile from shore,
and fired over the limestone cliffs that
come down to the sea and hide the city
five miles away.
The bombardment was continued for
one hour
After 80 shots had been fired from
the eight-inch guns. Commodore Schley
became convinced that the Brooklyn's
fire was falling short, and ordered a
cessation, permitting the battleships
10 continue, they, with their larger
guns, having longer range. The shots
were fired apparently with great delib-
Grafton. and ut intervals OF two min
utes. The signal from the shore an
nounccd that the shells fell thousand
feet short and little to the left Of the
Spanish position. At dusk the squad
ron ceased firing and Commodore
Schley sent launch 10 shore TO ask
Gen. Shafter II he desired firing contin-
ued during the night.
When the press reporter went aboard
the Brooklyn, Commodore Schley said
he was ignorant of the purpose Of the
bombardment. The press reporter
read TO him message received ut
Juragua from mounted courier say
ing the armistice was ended and that
hostilities had been resumed.

or Santiago de Cuba, via Playa del
Este, July l2.--At half-past nine Mon
day morning, after several range-find-
ing shots over the ridge protecting
Santiago from the sea, the United
States cruiser Newark opened fire into
the city with her eighth guns. The
signal corps officers stationed on top
OF the ridge reported the effect OF the
shots. The New York, Brooklyn and
Indiana participated in the firing, at
intervals OF five minutes. The bonn
bardment lasted for two hours, when
Gen. Shafter reported that the shells
were mostly falling In the bay and do
ing but little damage. The last shot,
however, struck a prominent church
in the heart of the city, which was
heavily stored with powder and ammu-
milton, causing tremendous explo-
sion. The extent of the damage is not
yet known. When the warships ceased
firing and before Gen. Shafter had be-
gun land attack, flag of truce was
seen coming from the city. The object
OF this is not known.
Gen. Shafter believes the Spanish
troops have taken advantage of the
truce to flee from the city. The attack
on the city Sunday was not an attempt
TO capture the city.
At two o'clock Monday afternoon
the United States auxiliary cruiser
Yale. with Gen. Nelson A. Miles. and
the United States protected cruiser
Columbia arrived. Rear Admiral
Sampson visited Gen. Miles immediate
ly on his arrival, and then the Yale
