Postmaster-Genes::.ll Smith Presents
Annual Report of Work of HIS
partment-Imcie Service Rend-
cred the Army in Camp and in Cuba,
Porto Rico and Manila.

Washington, Nov. 2s.-The annual re-
port of the secretary of the navy is
much longer than the usual annual re-
port. The first sentence explains this
as follows:
"For the first time since its rehabilita-
tion the navy has been put to the supreme
test Of war. Years Of patient, persistent
training and development had brought 1t
to point Of high efficiency, which result
ed In the unparalleled victories at Manila
and Santiago-victories which have given
the names of our naval commanders world
wide fame and added an additional page
to the glorious naval history Of our coun-
try"
The report describes in rapid order the
steps that were taken to consolidate the
squadrons and put the navy in readiness
for hostilities. Sigstke's famous telegram
asking suspension OF public opinion IN
connection with the blowing up Of the
Maine Is quoted, and the secretary says
This judicious telegram did much to &C.

view of the disaster"

DeNey's Victory.

The story of Dewey's victory at Manila
is told, and oft the secretary says: aside
from the mere fact of having won with
out the loss of single life such brilliant
and electrifying victory at the very out
set Of the war. with all the confidence
which It infused throughout the country
and into the personnel of every branch Of
the service, it removed at onoe all appre-
hension for the Pacific coast. The indirect
pecuniary advantage to the United States
in the way of saving an increase of insur-
ance rates and in assuring the country OF
freedom from attack on that coast Is IN
