that the occupation Of Manila by parts of the
crows OF foreign warships there is an accom-
nI,shed fact. although 1t may probably be three

II, was then that Admiral Dewey asked for
reinforcements and supplied Aguinaldo with
arms While Germany gathered a naval force.
the intention at Berlin was. II not to take pos
session Of Manila, at least TO cooperate in the
landing Admiral Dewey's force not being suf-
fcent TO protect German interests.
Captain General August had on his part
Informed his Government Of the situation, and
several interviews took place at Madrid with
the German Ambassador. the result being that
II was decided that Captain General August

1t was indirect way OF capitulating while
sparing Spanish amour propr.
There is no doubt that Admiral Won Die

reinforcements arrive be willing to allow his

REPORT OF SPANISH ATROCITY PROB
ABLY UNTRUE.

Washington. June 22.-A letter has been re-
ceived here by Surgeon General Van Reypen
from a surgeon on the hospital ship solace
which, the officials think. disprovos the report
that the Spanards mutilated the bodies OF the
marines who had been killed in the battle OF
Guantanamo Bay.
The surgeon who wrote the letter had an op-
portunity to examine the dead ms veil as the
wounded. and he writes to Dr. Van Reypen as
follows:
THE wound of exit is entirely different
wound from that made by the Lee (rihe). 1t is
very ugly opening. and IT led some to suppose
that the first dead had been mutilated. This Is
now believed 10 be an error"
