as good as any regulars and
three times as good as any
state troops, to Porto Rico. There
are 1880 effective men in this division;
If those who were left behind were
joined to them, we could land at Porto
Rico, in this cavalry division, close to
1000 men, who would be worth easily
any 10000 national guards armed with
black powder Spring6elds or other
archaic weapons.
Very respectfully,

The following reply was cabled to
Col. Roosevelt Thursday:
Your letter of the 23d is received.
The regular army, the volunteer army
and the rough riders have done we'll,
but Isuggest that unless you want to
spoil the effects and glory of your vic
tory, you make no invidious compari-
sons. The rough riders are no better
than other volunteers. They had an
advantage in their arms, for which
they ought to be very grateful.

COLUMBUS, O., Aug. a-Adjt Gen.
Kingsley was very much perturbed
Friday morning over the reflections
cast upon the national guard volun-
teers by Col Theodore Roosevelt
"Col Roosevelt is" he said, "a very
young soldier to grow SO presumptu-
Gus. The reports OF the battle OF
Santiago show that the volunteers
made up from the national guard were
fully as efficient and brave as the
rough riders and were perhaps better
led. 1 am willing to back the lst o hic
cavalry, troop for troop. and man for
man, against the rough riders as cav
airy, mounted or dismounted, as sol
diers or as men, and do not fear the
comparison"

GERMANS DIDN'T BELIEVE 1T.
Newspapers That Published Manila
Dispatches Expressed Doubts
ms to Their Reliability.

Berlin, May 2.-The news of the brilliant
victory of the United States fleet at Ma
Mia was received here, except in govern
ment circles. with general incredulity, al
though the foreign office was full of the
news on Sunday evening, and it promptly
notified the embassies. The newspapers
either did not publish the news, or, IL they
published it. they expressed doubts as to
its reliability. They said it was derived
mostly from American sources and, doubt
less. had been grossly exaggerated or was
baseless.''
London May s.-The Berlin correspond
ent of the Daily News says:
The German papers do not comment
upon the American victory at Manila, but
the opinion prevails in political quarters
that the United States has gained the prize
1t had In view, as 1t promised not to annex
Cuba, but gave no promise regarding the
Philippines"
The Daily News says: "A defeat so
crushing and disastrous may well make
Spanish statesmen ask themselves whether
1t Is worth while to risk further misfor-
tunes without hope of a satisfactory result.
If only for the sake of the queen regent
and her son, the government should agree
with the adversary quickly"
The Daily Chronicle says: 1.-THE Philip
pines, no less than Cuba, should be thrown
open to the light Of federation and civiliza-
ton. It will be time to discuss the pro-
posals of the many claimants to do the
work when the United States has been
heard from on the subject"
The Standard says: Whatever prepon-
derance of strength Commodore Dewey en-
joyed, he could not have accomplished the
work without that mixture of dash and
tactical resource which constitutes military
genius. For the vanquished we can have
only feeling of commiseration. They
evinced qualities that deserved success
Spain's best course is to submit to the in
evitable and to purchase back the Philip
pines by formally renouncing her title to
exercise rule in the Antilles

JAPAN PORTS STILL OPEN.
There Is Prospect That They May
Not BE Closed Against Our
Ships.

Washington. May 2.-It is expected that
Japanese authorities will receive early of
ficial information of the battle at Manila
They have a consul there and, under the
system developed during the Japanese
Chinese war, all military and naval opera
tions are communicated at once to the
admiralty Office at Toxic and thence made
to Japanese officials throughout the world
Minister Hoshi has not yet received official
advices.
1t turns out that, while Japan has given
notice that she will declare neutrality, a
decree of neutrality is not yet actually is
sued so that Yokohama and other ad-
vantageous ports Of Japan continue to be
open to the American fleet. This is looked
upon by the authorities here as an evil
dence Of the friendly disposition of Japan
toward. the United States. 1t leaves both
the ports of China and Japan open to our
ships. When the japanese decree of neu-
trality is issued, there is strong hope, based
upon reliable information, that it will con-
tain what is known as a "hospitable coal
clause"
This would afford ample facilities to war
ships to lay in necessary coal supplies at
Japanese ports to carry them to the next
home port. While the privilege could be
enjoyed by Spain as well as the United
States, yet the effect would be of distinct
advantage to the United States, as it is
in Asiatic waters that the United States
most needs hosDitable ports for recoaling.

COMPLICATIONS POSSIBLE.
If Dewey BOmbarded without Notice
Foreign Nations VIII
Make Fuss.

Washington, May 2.-The late reports
that Manila was being bombarded caused
much uneasiness at the foreign headquar-
ters. 1t was said that, if the town itself
was under bombardment, serious compli-
cations might arise. as non-combatants and
the foreign colonies, 1t is held should have
been entitled to at least twenty-four hours
notice of an attack upon the town proper
If. however, Commodore Dewey is confin-
ing his bombardment to Cavite and other
forts, no such question can arise.
Although the British colonial Office had
been fully advised of the American sue
cess at Manila, the authorities in London
did not communicate with the British en-
bassy here, nor did the foreign Office at
Paris, Berlin or other capitals notify their
representatives here. This is taken to in
dicate that the foreign offices will not COM
municate events of a strictly military char
acter, and also that the American occupa-
tion of the Philippines has not yet assumed
political aspect at foreign centers. Sir
Charles Mitchell. who has advised the Brit
ish colonial Office on the situation at Man.
lila. is well known to the British officials
here. He is governor general of the Straits
Settlements, his home being at Singapore,
which has cable communication with Man
liza.

MANILA EASILY DESTROYED.
essary to Reduce the City
to Ruin.

London. May 3.-The Madrid correspond
ent of the Daily Mail says:
ut is suggested here that the haIfbreeds
at the Manila arsenals. who are rebels at
heart. cut the cables connecting with the
submarine mines and thus enabled Com
modore Dewey to force the harbor in
safety.
mo real bombardment will be necessary
to destroy Manila, if the shells are of such
the bulk of which there are of wood or
bamboo. Only the public buildings are
built of stone, while the brick-built old
town is incapable of resisting artillery.
Captain Cadarso of the cruiser Reina
Maria Christina, who was killed on the
bridge of his vessel was one of the most
brilliant officers in the Spanish navy His
ship was a model of order and efficiency.
He read and wrote a great deal. especially
with reference to naval and colonial mat
ters, and he was so outspoken that he often
came into collision with the authorities
The Madrid correspondent of the
Standard says:
considerable surprise and dsappoint-
ment has been caused by the destruction
done by the American fleet, as it had been
officially stated that the authorities at Ma
nilla had received sixty torpedoes and
heavy guns to strengthen the coast de-
fenses. particularly the defenses command
ing the channels on the right and left cs
Corregidor island.
1T is noticeable among the classes. es-
pecially among politicians, that there is
strong hope of an Intervention by Con-
tinertal powers, especially Germany and
