bring their torpe does into play, while the Spaniards were so hard pressed by the American fire that they couid not even think of letting loose tor pedoes. Whenever Spanish torpedo beats have attempted to approach American ships thsy were either, when the attempt was made at night. dis covered by the searchlights and then overwhelmed with such hail Of shot that they were obliged to withdray. or else, as in the case of CerveTas dash, were at once shot to pieces. Ths two Spanish torpedo boat destroyers, Furor and Fulton, had speed of 2S to 30 knots, and were armed with two 14-pound and two 6-pound quick-firers and Maxim gun. As soun as they came out of Santiago harbor, never theless, they were attacked by the armed yacht Gloucester, carrying only a. few 6-pounder and 3-pounder quick firing guns, and rendered useless in a short time. The Gloucester is said to have fired 1,400 shots and suffered hardly any damage. The fact must be noted that in this case two toIpedo boat destroyers. vessels which hereto fore have been represented as extreme ly dangerous for battleships, were de stroyed by an armed yacht of inferior speed to theirs.
 Equally interesting are the observa- tions made on the fight between bat tleships and cruis-rs. As in the battle of the Yalu, between the Chinese and Japanese, superiority in marksman- ship decided the fight off Santiago. The Spanish vessels were in part superior in speed to the American; the valo1 and discipline of the Spanish sailors are much praised by the Americans; experienced officers commanded the ships, but nevertheless they were de feated without doing any damag: worth mentioning to the enemy It is we'll known that for years the Ameri- cans have kept up industriously target practice, and that they expected good results from this themselves. Good guns without good gunners are useless in fight. The Spaniards shot poorly and the Americans shot well. The re- suit was that the Spanish vessels took fire and were therefore compelled to run ashore. How far better armor in- fluenced the outcome of the fight can not be determined with certainty. One thing, however, is settled. Her speed could not save even the Cristobal Co., Ion from the sure aim of the Ameri- cans. Besides this, the American ma terial, missiles as well as armor plate seems to have shown itself to be much better than that of the Spanish. Amer
 ican experts, indeed, believe that in this respect they are superior even tc the English.-Frankfurte Zeitung.
