A GLORIOUS FOURTH.
News from sampson, Dewey and ShafteI
Made 1t the Greatest Day Since the
Declaration OF independence.

WASHINGTON, July 5.-The complete
humiliation of the Spanish squadron
at Santiago and the capture of the
Spanish Admiral, Cervera, with 1000
prisoners; the demand by Gen. Shafter
for the surrender of Santiago by noon
to-day on pain of bondbardment; word
from Admiral Dewey that the Lad rome
islands had been captured; that a
Spanish gunboat had surrendered; that
a hundred or more Spanish officers and
men were taken, and that our first Phil
ippine expedition had landed-this is,
in part, the thrilling record of such a
Fourth of July as has not been known
since the bells of Independence hall
rang out the tidings of American free
dom. It was a day when one mo-
mentous event followed another in
constant and rapid succession. each
hour bringing forth some new feature,
more startling than what had gone
before. The climax came at one
o'clock, when amid the widest cheer
ing, which fairly shook the great war,
state and navy building to its founda-
ton, Admiral SIMPSONS dispatch an
nouncing his glorious victory and the
entire destruction of the Spanish feet
was given to the public.

The Fourth Expedition to Manila,

SAN FRANCISCO, July 5.-The indica-
tions are that the fourth expedition to
the Philippines will be a large and
striking one. An effort will be made
to take the bulk of the troops now
here. There has been no date ap-
proximated for the sailing Of the
fourth fleet. Everything still depends
on the transports. When sufficient
number of these has been definitely
decided upon. a date will probably be
fixed. Maj Gen. Otis and his staff
will probably remain to the end.

The Fleet That Wa. Destroyed.

WASHINGTON. July 5.-The annihila-
ton of Cervera's feet is terrific blow
to Spain, as this fleet was far more
formidable than that wiped out by
Admiral Dewey at Manila and was the
strongest fotilla of ships Spain had
afloat. 1t consisted of the four ar
mored cruisers Vizcaya, Oquendo,
Cristobal Colon and Maria Teresa and
three torpedo boat destroy ers. Pluton,

smoke Obscured the scene
The smoke wrapped the scene in obscurity,
but from time to time, as the wind tore the
smoke curtains aside, the spectators caught
momentary glimpses Of the swift tragedy.
Close upon the heels of the Colon's destruc-
ton simultaneously. almost, came the doom OF
the Oquendo and Vizcaya. The Colon. the Wis
caya and OquendO had to face the Iowa, Texas
and Indiana. Under the fire of this ponderouS
trio the cruisers that had raised so many hopes
and not few fears went down to defeat with
fearful swiftness. The flagship Colon fought
her way ten miles up the coast before her nose
was turned shoreward. The Vizcaya and
Oquendo had not made half that distance
under the terrible hammering of the hurricane
battleships before their case was hopeless, and
they, too, were turned shoreward, and they
had not been idle Their crews fought with
desperate bravery, but courage was no match
