NEW YORK, December 26.-Captain +.

gave out a statement to-day. denying OIL
legations made I'm an article published in
the Engineering Magazine. In the arti-
Gle referred TO statements are made TO
the effect that the United States war
shps that destroyed Cervera's feet at
Santiago on July 90 were really not IN a
proper state OF preparedness when the
spanish fleet passed out through the chan
Tel and attempted to pass. Engines were
urc0upled. it is stated, boilers were either
empty or fun Of salt water. and the
CRATES were cold. Captain Chadwick says:
The New York and Brooklyn have four
engines. all Of which together can only
g. used 10 advantage with full power
The New York was using forty-five tons
CT coal day on the blockade. 1t was the
practice TO keep steam in four of the six
boilers. a fifth filled with wafer kept rot
and prined ready for firing. and sixth
cleaning. This was the condition the day
q the action. The sixth boiler, as were
40 the rest was filled with fresh, not
salt. water. To- have kept fire sufficient
% use efficiently all The engines coupled
would have occasioned an expenditure Of
coal which would have forced the New
York from her station, as IL did others.
As IL was. she was hanging on by her
eyelids. 50 to speak. avoiding as long as
possible going 20 Guantanamo for coal.

'The use ~ her engines and the BOOK

rrment. and after full power was on IL
wovld have been absurd 60 stop TO couple
when going Is or Il knots, and thus lose
from four 10 five miles. when il was so
clearly apparent that the chase was bNnS
rapidly overhauled. Stringent orders ex-
i.t regarding the use Of fresh water in all
ships: il was not singular 10 the oregon.
The New York never had any but fresh
water in her boilers, and circular order

INJURIOUS 10 them, and we should soon

MYSTERIOUS BANK ROBBERY.
Only Notes and Gold Tnken-siiver
Undisturbed.

LIMA. o.. December 25.-The American
National Bank, of this city, was robbed
last night of S,l62 The money was taken
from the big vault. The robbery
was skilfully executed, no damage being
done to the vault. The money stolen was
in currency and gold. No silver was
taken. The robbery was discovered this
morning by the banks janitor, who found
the door TO the vault open. a deposit of
$1,000. made on Saturday night, was gone.
The directors of the bank held meet
ing at once. at which an assessment was
made to meet the deficiency, and othsr
banks in the city offered assistance.
The manner of entrance 10 the bank
by the robbers is a mystery, as all the
windows were protected with heavy iron
screens. The front door was found locked
this morning, as usual. There is not tho
slightest cew for detectives to work upon.
The robbery is the work of professionals,
surely.
