NEW YORK, October 1l.-Although the
American feet in the battle off Santiago
on July Sd obeyed the general orders
Of Rear-Admiral Sampson, given In adj
vance, to meet just such an emergency,
IT was essentially a captains fight. This
is the substance of the report OF the
naval board which has been investigating
disputed points in the battle.
Rear-Admiral Sampson was not present.
and the two orders slgnalled by Schley-
"Close in" and Engage the enemy
did no good. and were unnecessary, for
the ships had already closed in and were
engaging the enemy when the orders
were run up. The board finds in a more
general way that each ship in the fleet
knew exactly what TO do should Cervera
come out, and did it when he actually
came out Each captain fought his ship
on plans prepared and orders given by
Sampson.
The findings of the board are summa-
rized as follows:
/. The battle was fought and won upon
plans prepared by Rear-Admiral Samp-
SON.

T. The Brooklyn was not engaged at so
close quarters as was represented by the

miles away from the enemy.

6. The New York was about nine miles
| from the Colon when that ship surren-
from the nearest sister ship engaged

| Z. The average range of the ships most
engaged was about a mile and a half.
| The New York, the board finds, did no.
thing to affect the issue Of the battle.
THE HOTTEST FIGHTING.

SPAIN MUST QUIT BY DECEMBER 4.
Cuba to De Fully Garrisoned ny Our
Troops Before That Date.

WASHINGTON, October 1l.-Instruc-
lions have been sent to the United States
Military Commission In Cuba. fixing De-
cember lst as tho date when Spanish con-
troll over the island must cease. The COM
missioners. acting upon these Instructions.
nave notified the Spaniaris that sll port
and customs receipts, and the manage
ment of municipal affairs. will pass into
the hands OF the American military COM
msnder In the island on that date.
This order was not intended to work
hardship to the Spanish troops or gov
eminent. but IT was thought best TO fix
definite time to end Spanish rule, and to
begin operations under the United states.
IL Is probable that the United States
troops will go TO Cuba before that time.
By December LIST 1t Is expected to have
troops so stationed that there will be no
need OF Spanish troops to preserve order
The proclamations that have been issued
by the President, defining the manner in
will prevail until 1T becomes appsi ent
that new regulations are needed.
PORTO RICO NEXT TUESDAY.
On October 18th Major General Rrooke
will assume absolute control Of the Is
land OF Porto Rico. II IL possible that
ali the Spanish troops will not have left
Porto Rico at that time, and If so they
will be quartered in barracks until they
can be taken away. In the language OF
Secretary Alger. the United States Will
be the host and the Spaniards The guests
after October 18th. The United States
will not ship the remaining troops to
Spain at its own expense. That was 10
part OF the protocol. The custom-houses.
the money received from customs. and
the government of the island will pass
completely from Spanish control on the
date set. The present customs regula-
lions. under the proclamation of the
President, will prevail.
