No reliance whatever is placed by Army Of

send endorsements to the Philippines under the
convoy Of armored squadron. 1t is pointed
out that II any armored vessel could have been
spsred from Spain for cruise OF such length It
would have undoubtedly been attached TO the

vessels from the Spanish coast at the present
time would leave Cadz at the mercy Of an
American flying squadron. 1t would also be I'm
possible for Spain to send any warships to the
Philippines they could secure coal only for
the nearest home port. and after coaling once
would be debarred from entering any neutral
harbor The chain Of coallng ports from the
Mediterranean TO the Asiatic is controlled by ma
tons friendly TO the United States, and under
the circumstances no Spanish vessel could make
