NEW YORK, June 1.-Captain Sigs-

SchIey returned to Santiago on Satur-
day and on Sunday started towards
the harbOr. Spanish troops could be

1t was evident from The appearance
of the Spanish warships on Sunday
that they had either just entered the

Admiral Sampson Had the San
Francisco Command.

Francisco Command.
Admiral Sampson is quite well
known here. As captain he brought
the United States cruiser San Fran
cisco to this port and his daughter
lived ashore at the time. This was
seven or eight years ago. In a Leslie's
Weekly sketch of the man now so pro
minent, il is written:
1t is little wonder that an officer
who was unfinchingly just, as Samp-
son was, should inspire enthusiastic
affection. When the order was receiy-
ed recalling him from Honolulu to
take charge of the ordnance bureau
at Washington, and the gig left the
vessel, bearing her commander away,
the sides of the San Francisco sud
denly swarmed with men and a cry of
Three cheers for Captain Sampson!"
went up. All sea-faring men know
that the proper response in etiquette
to such an ovation is to give the
order, Oars which means that
every oar must spread out and hold
the boat still in quick attention. But
no order came from the lips Of the
iron-faced captain, and, looking at him
in surprise, his coxswain (who fairly
idolized him. saw that the chief was
choked with emotion.
oars, boys" cried the sympathetic
coxswain, and three cheers for the
San Francisco" and the shouts were
given with a will.
While chief of the ordnance bureau
Captain Simpsons health suffered
severely from the close, sedentary
habits which his duties imposed, and he
tried to counterfeit the bad effects by
all sorts of athletic exercises at home,
swinging clubs, punching the bag, etc.
He was exceedingly fond of lawn
tennis, and was often seen playing
this game with Secretary Olney.

and another cruiser, in addition to six
small vessels, took up a position May
81 on the western side Of the mouth of
Santiago channel, opening fire from
the first five vessels.
The Spanish cruiser CristobaI Colon
was anchored toward Punta Gorda
and could be seen from the open sea.
The fire of the American fleet was
answered by the MORO batteries and
by the cruiser CristobaI Colon.
The American feet fred seventy
shots without causing the least
damage.
The bombardment lasted ninety
minutes and the American fleet re-
tired with a transatlantic steamer
(auxiliary cruiser) damaged.
Shells were seen TO explode on the !
Iowa's stern and there was a fire on
board another battIesbip. Several pro-
iectiIes fell inside the harbor, near
he Spanish warships.
There is great enthusiasm at San
iago and here.
