in the region of his trousers. The masher
was then given his liberty, as quite crowd
had gathered in the meanwhile, and Will

Washington, Dec. 2.-The Navy De

from Admiral Sampson covering the
operations of his fleet after the des
truction of Cerveras squadron. In
this report the Admiral takes occasion
to deny the statement issued in con-
nection with General Skaters report,
that he had refused to make an at.
tempt to enter the harbor. He also
severely criticises the General and his
plans, and says that Shafter had a
complete Misrepresentation of the cir
cumstances." Admiral Sampson says
positively that if the original battle
plans, contemplating the seizure of the
forts, had been carried out, It would
have resulted in the much quicker sur
