fleet was annihilated and that the
American squadron did not lose ves-
sci. There is report here that Com
mOdore Dewey has landed marines at
Manila to preserve order. 1t is also
stated that marines are In possession
Of all the public buildings. A dis
patch comes from Paris, which has
just been received there from Madrid,
to the effect that Manila was badly
damaged by the bombardment of
Dewey's ships. Cavite is said to have
been almost completely destroyed"
Commodore Dewey is no stranger to
fighting. He was with Farragut at
the capture Of New Orleans in the
Civil war, and took part in the fight
below Donaldsonville in 1863. Later,
with Capt. Evans Of the Iowa, he was
in the forlorn hope that charged on
Fort Fisher. Atthe end of the war
he went to the European station on
the Kearsage. After several years of
shore duty he was made captain Of the
Dolphin, one Of the first ships OF the
new navy. Before his assignment to the
ASiatic squadron he was IN command
OF the flagship Pensacola at the Eu.
ropean station. He is about 81 years
old, and native OF Vermont.
The latest news from Dewey is that
after whipping the entire Spanish
fleet and shelling Manila, he is now
giving his attention TO CorregidOr
island, lying in the outer entrance to
the harbor Of Manila, about 25 miles
below the capital city. Corregidor is
crowned by lighthouse and has sew

Powerful Commercial Interests
Said to Be at Work for
Cuban Freedom.
Holders of Cuban Bonds BecOm.
ing Alarmed About Their
Securities.
England and France Might Sane.
ton Intervention on Certain
Conditions

WASHINGTON. Jan. IA. -Private in.
formation has been SEN to the state de.
partment and to members Of the foreign
affairs committee in congress-, going to
show that powerful influences are at
work to secur independence for Cuba.
This information is considered to be
perfectly reliable, and Of the utmost
importance.
Spain has issued bonds to the gross
amount Of about $500, 600. 600 based
specifically upon the and rev.
enues of Cuba. These bonds are held
in large part in Great Britain and
France. Some Of the largest synJi.
Gates III those countries, it is said, have
at last become convinced that these
bonds are about to become valueless,
unless the United States in some way
guarantees their payment. They are
convinced that the Island is entirely
devastated, and that ii can be restored
only by the influence Of . strong com.
mercial power.
Wants This Country tn Intervene.
Representations have already been
made to this country by certain strong
commercial interests to secure active
Intervention. If this were done, the
United States would become morally
responsible for the payment Of the Gu.
ban loan. This could be done by q
protcctorate, similar 10 that Of England
III Egyp pit, or by Il direct control Of the
Cuban custom houses. The insurgeni
leaders have all along minated tina,
they would not object to action on the
part Of the United States which would
secure their independence. no matter
how costly it might be to them from q
financial point Of view. They realize
that the very measures necessary to the
raising OF money TO pay this loan would
give the island q start commercially,
such as it could not hope to attain by
itself.
How II Could he Done.
Under prescn: conditions, President
Mckinley could not intervene. excep,
as al act Of hostility to Spain, as the
Spaniards have acceeded to every de
mand made 10y this government almos,
before 1t vas presented. 1t has beer
intimated, however. that il the United
| States should send its warships L
Havana. stop the var and agree I pay
the $500. 0OO. 600 of the Cuban loan
both France and Great Britain would
sustain this, for the Sagasta govern
ment could appeal to the people OF Spail
and show that the loss Of Cuba haC
come abou, ly the influence Of Franc,
and Great Britain. rather than by tn,
dlctations 0. the hated Yankees. Ii i
undoubtedly a fact that the bondhold
ers are moving 10 put this country IN
position where it will guarantee pay
mcnt, and If it does this the war IL
Cuba will speedily end.
