Spanish Naval Prisoners Admire
American Ships and Soldiers.
Copyrighted by the Associated Press.
GUANTANAMO Wia Kingston, July
q, delayed in transmission. = The
steamer Resolute arrived today with
sos prisoners, including eighteen of the
officers and crew Of the Spanish cruiser
Cristobal Colon. The disposition of tho
prisoners has not yet been decided on.
The number of killed and wounded on
the Cristobal Colon was very small.
Before running their ship ashore and
hosting the white flag, the Spaniards
opened the Kingston valves on board
the Colon, and threw overheard the
breech blocks Of every gun, including
those Of their Mauser rifles.
The Spanish officers say the order
to sail was given by the ministry of
marine at Madrid, and they decided
to make an attempt to escape on Sat-
urday night, but 1t was postponed un-
til Saturday morning, for the reason
that quarters inspection" would be
held at that time, and the Americans
would not be at their guns. None of
the Spantards expected to be alive at
noon on Sunday, believing the destruc-
ton of the feet to be certain. Most
of their valuables were put on the
