SELF AND SCHLEY.
Washington. July 25-The official reports con-
corning naval operations off the east coast Of
Cuba. eliminating in the destruction OF Admiral
Cervera's feet will he made public by the Navy
Department tomorrow afternoon for publica-
ton in the newspapers Of Wednesday morning.
A statement to this effect made by Secre-
tary. Long to-day. The Celay in giving them
out is said to be due to the fact that they can
not be copied before tomorrow afternoon.
There are several reports. and they include
nearly a complete history % naval operations
around and about Santiago. The principal re-
port is made nv Acting Admiral Sampson, as
commander in chief of the naval forces In Cuban
waters. and II is accompanied by the reports
made to him by Commodore Sohley. who was
on tho cruiser Brooklyn. in active command or
the fleet which destroyed the spanish fleet; ny
Captain Evans commanding the battle-shlp
Iowa; by Captain Clark commanding the bat
tle-ship Oregon, and Captain Taylor. command
ing the battle-ship Indiana. The reports OF
Captain Philip. commanding the battle-ship
Texas and Commander Wainwright. of the aux
iliary cruiser Gloucester. which vessels TOOK a
prominent part in the chase and destruction or
the Spanish vessel, will be held for publication
at a subsequent date.
Secretary Long said that in view Of the de-
cision to give the reports out in full tomorrow
evening he did not feel at liberty at this time
to disclose even the general character or thelr
contents In response to direct inquiry he ala
say however, that Admiral Simpsons repor,
was plain statement o. the facts connected
with the destruction of the Spanish fleet, and
"sho \ ed conclusyely that there was no friction
between the officers in connection with II.

to say anything about how the reports came 20

former statement that they were not brought
