Off Santiago de Cuba, July 4. after
noon.-AdmiraI Cervera held a CONSUL
tation with his officers before sailing
out of the harbor of Santiago de Cuba,
and by a small majority the move was
agreed upon. The minority said that
destruction was sure, as many of the
firemen had maintained, and the best
men in the fleet were worn out by serv-
ing the guns in the short batteries.
Early on the morning of the sOrtie
careful observations were taken of the
sea, east and west. Admiral Cervera

army could combine in a terrific double
fire. No less than 292 heavy guns
would be trained from the American
warships on the city, and at the same
time the big siege guns, which it is
/ expected have been brought to the
front of Skaters line, would rain down
a torrent of steel from that quarter.
! The siege guns throw shells of 135
pounds. Aside from them there are
four modern howitzers, with guns of
! a smaller calibre- These are in the
heavy artillery, while the light artil-
lery embraces a great number of guns
of 3.2-calibre. Combined, this fire from
land and sea would be terrific in its
effect.
1he action of the foreign repre-
sentatives at Santiago has been addi-
tional reason for deferring the bonn
bardment 1t was made known late
today that one of General Skaters
dispatches stated that these repre-
sentatives had joined in a request to
him to put off the Smelling of the city
Tor another brief period, until their re-
spective colonies could be removed.
This accounts for the departure of the
foreign warshipS from Santiago har-
Dor. as they are bearing away the for
elgn residents in the period before the
bombardment begins. The activity of
the consulS at Santiago has led TO no
diplomatic complication which has
reached the state department thus far,
and the authorities here believe that
nothing will develop.
SKATERS ARMY OUTNUMBERED
General Shafter, in a dispatch re-
ceived last night, confirmed the report
that General Pando and about 5000
Spaniards had arrived in the city and
were already distributed among the
fortlhcations. This reinforcement
makes the Spanish forces defending
the city from 5000 to $4,000 The very
great advantage of being entrenched
ADDS materially to their strength, and,
in the opinion of military men, makes
their effective fighting force from a
third TO half greater than our own.
General Shafter, in his dispatches,
states that the excessive heat and
rains Of the last two weeks have con-
tributed nearly as much as the Span
lsh bullets to the losses of our army
Under these circumstances it is his
opinion that it would be unwise to at
tempt to carry the city by assault.
