News from Dewey.

Washington, May 15,-The dis
patches from Hong Kong brought
news today from Admiral Dewey to
the president and Secretary Long and
the naval officials who are watching
the admiral's movements with so much
interest. While no apprehension ex
listed as to his security, nevertheless,
reinsurance Of safety was pleasant.
The kilograms indicate that Dewey
has lost none of the prestige gained
in his memorable fight of two weeks
ago and that, while he refrains from
taking the city of Manila, he has it
practically at his mercy. The admiral
expresses the belief that the rebels
are hemming in the city by land, but
the fact that he says explicitly that
they have made no demonstration
seems to disprove thoroughly the pub.
lished reports that they have already
entered Manila aud had begun block,
ade and rapine. The best evidence
of the effectiveness of blockade main
tanned by the American admiral and
also of the work of the insurgents in
surrounding the city is shown in the
statements in the dispatches that pro-
visions are scarce in the city of Man
lila, which seems to indicate to AID
miral Dewey an early surrender by
the Spanish authorities. Another
published report seems also to be
refuted by the admiral's advices and
that is that the rebels had raided
Cavite, where the Spanish naval sta
ton was located aud where presum
ably large supplies of arms and am
munition were kept. If the rebels
have been supplying themselves with
arms, it must have been with the adj.
miraps consent, as his dispatch is O.
riginally dated from Cavite, indicating
that he is still in possession. The
greatest interest prevails here regard
ing the work being done and effective
ness of the blockade being maintain
