SUEZ OPEN TO SPAIN
SHORT CUT FOR WAR VESSELS
TO MANILA
But Even If the Fleet Has Started
That Way Dewey Can Easily Re-
ceive Re1nfOrcements Before the
Enemy Can Reach the Philip
pines Through the Indian
Ocean.

Special to The St. Paul Globe.
WASHINGTON, D. c., May SIT is
said by officials at the state depart
nent that. under treaty concluded
between Great Britain and SPAIN
the latter nation has a right to use
the Suez canal, and that war vessels
may pass through, provided that the
ships are not bound for any ports Of
country that is at war with Great
Pritain. This treaty was concluded at
Constantinople in 1893, and neutraliz-
cd the Suez canal to all great nations
1t is not believed, however, that
Spain will attempt to make use of Suez
canal If her fleet had started a week
ago it would certainly have been re-
ported as having passed through the
Red sea, and would have been sighted
by this time among the many islands
of the Indian ocean. If the fleet start
ed now it would not be in time to do
any good to Spanish troops on the
Philippines, for Dewey can receive re-
Inducements and additional ammuni-
ton from San Francisco before the
Spanish fleet could reach the Philip
pines by way of Suez canal.

thorities to continue temporarily I'M
termination of the war, the Spaniards
delayed their decision, and kept wiring
to Madrid. The Americans requested
the privilege of using the wire, and,
when this was refused, they cut the
cable.
The Esmeralda, from Hong Kong,
arrived right in the middle of the bat
tie. During the adjournment for break
fast, an American cruiser was de-
tached to meet her, as it was believed
she might be Spaniard. When it
was found that the new arrival was a
British vessel, she was warned to keep
away. The Esmeralda, therefore,
moved up the bay ten or fifteen miles.
There are still two or three Spanish
gunboats about the Philippines, but
no resistance from them Is probable.

THE M'cULLocH RETURNS.
Believed 1t Carried Orders to Dewey
to Establish Protcctorate.

HONG KONG, May S.-The United
States gunboat Hugh McCulloch, which
arrived here on Friday, with dispatches
from Admiral Dewey, officially an
nouncing his great victory over the
Spaniards, left here at 3 o'clock this
afternoon, Greenwich time, on her re-
turn to Manila, after, it is understood,
receiving many urgent dispatches from
Washington. But it is believed the
McCulloch will first go to Mrs bay to
await theresfinaE instructions for Ad-
miral Dewey as to how he is to deal
with the Philippine islands.
Accordingsto reports current here the
American admiral will insist by force,
if necessary. upon the Spaniards ac-
cepting at least a temporary protec-
torate of the United States, the desire
being, it is alleged, to avoid disturbing
the present. administration, as, It is
pointed out, the insurgents Of the Phil
ippine islands are quite unfit to partici-
pate in their government.
However, II 1t is believed here, If
the Spaniards do not meet with the
views of Washington in the matter,
that the American admiral will take
prompt steps toeadminister the islands
for the United States as soon as he re-
ceives the necessary troops and sup
plies from San Francisco.
