OFFICIAL CONFIRMATION
of the engagement at guantanamo
last Tuesday came 10 the navy de-
partment to-day and was made the
subject of bulletin.
The terms in which Admiral
Sampson described the affair tended
strongly to take away the large i'm
portance that had been given it in
the unofficial dispatches There was
a notable failure on the part of the
admiral to mention anything like a
landing, although the statement
that the Marblehead now holds the
lower bay may, by Implication,
carry with it the idea that the ma
rines are ashore.
Elderly naval officials Swho have
been in Guantanamo bay describe
it as admirably suited to t1pe re-
ception of transports, with plenty
of water for the biggest Of the
transports and enough for tie
smaller class OF warships that
might be used to convoy them. The
locality is one that would make a
good base of operations against
Santiago itself, should it be decided
to attack the latter town by troops
from the rear instead of by the war
ships.

FIGHT OVER THE OFFICE OF CHIEF
Has Served TO Direct the Attention Of Members Of

Several members Of the city council
were talking over the chief of police
matter this morning, but none of thenx
expressed any definite opinion as to
who would be the next incubent of the
office. There was one matter that they
did freely discuss, however, apd that
was the advisability of having a police
commission and quite number OF
the gentlemen favored the proposed
plan.
one OF them said that he believed
that under police commission many
existing evils would be removed, for
any police official who neglected to
take proper action after being notified
that wrong doing existed could be at
once punished, either by lne or remoV-
al by the commissioners, whereas uh-
der the present system of a committees
on police very little good rs accomplish

punished were a few patroimen ior

1t was stated b. others that the
board OF fire commissioners had ac-

was no doubt that a police commission
would accomplish as much good for the
