THE AMERICANS VICTORY AT
MANILA

All the news received up to late
hour last night in regard to the engage
ment at Manila came from Spanish
sources, and as favorable showing was
undoubtedly made as possible for the
Spaniards. Yet it was admitted that their
best cruiser, the Reina Maria Christina,
was completely burned, and her comman-
der killed, several others burned or blown
up, and several sunk to prevent their
falling into the hands of the American
fleet. So much admission is enough to
show that the whole truth is that the
Spanish fleet was completely defeated and
the most of it destroyed. There is no
claim that the Americans lost single
ship or had one seriously disabled. Ap-
parently Commodore Dewey's squadron
was exposed to the fire of the land batter
les as we'll as that of the Spanish fleet.
There appears to have been two separate
engagements, the American feet retiring
to land their wounded and then return
ing. This is the retiring" probably
alluded to by the Governor General in his
official report which very likely was sent
before the second engagement occurred.
If the Spanish fleet has been annihiIated,
as appears practically certain, Manila
must be at Commodore Dewey's mercy,
and must soon surrender if it has not
already. The defeat of this feet also
clears the Pacific of Spanish vessels, and
frees American commerce IN that region
from danger.
Nothing had been received at late
hour as to the number of killed and
wounded in either feet but it is obvious
that so fierce an engagement must have
been attended with serious losses on both
sides.

The Boston Herald claims that its
news yacht followed the Cape Verde fleet
for some hours after it left Cape Verde,
and that the last seen of it it was head
ing west, or in about the direction of
Porto Rico. This, SO far as it goes, is
evidence that the flot;lla is coming across
the Atlantic. But it is by no means con-
elusive. 1t might have sailed west for a
day or two for the express purpose of
deceiving any craft that might follow
II as to its real intentions It is possible,
though we hardly deem it probable, that
the fleet is really bound for the West In
dies with the intention of meeting Adj
miral Simpsons ships. 1t is not probable
because the American fotila is much su-
perior to it in fighting strength and its
defeat would be almost certain unless
it should take our ships unawares when
they were scattered. If it Goes not go to
Cuba where will it go? 1t might go to
Cape st. Rogue with the hope of inter-
cepting the Oregon and Marietta, which
are on their way to join the Key West
squadron. But the Oregon is very able
ship and before the Spaniards captured
or sunk her they would in all probability
lose several of their own vessels, and be.
eides it would be rather pusillanimous for
this large SQUADRON to sail after a single

The large increase in the tonnage tax
which is one of the features of the rev.
enue bill, will hit the hardest the Euro
pean nation which has shown us the
most sympathy and consideration in the
present war-indeed, we might truthfully
say the Only one that has shown any,
Great Britain sends more ships to our
ports than all the other nations put to-
gethe and upon her citizens this tax
will fall chiefly. 1t will certainly tend
to ALLEVIATE her sympathy, and far worse
than that, perhaps, it will tend to drive
steamship lines that make use of our
ports in winter, like the Allan and the
Dominion, to seek Canadian ports 1t
would seem possible to raise the money
which this tax contemplates in an easier
and much less mischieyous way.

AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
This was Before the Great News Had Ar
rived.

Washington. May mo word from
Manila. This was the first answer given
in all official quarters today to nsws
gatherars, rejecting the intense interest
centering in Commodore Dewey's feet
near the Philippine islands.
Secretary Long arrived at the White
House shortly before IL O'Clock. He said
he had received no news OF Importance
from any quarter up to that time. There
was no significance in his call as he came
to take the President to church. The
secretary felt that press dispatches would
bring news of any action in the Philip
pines before the official dispatches could
arrive
AS the President came from the White
House to take the carriage he saluted the
small party in waiting outside. His face
wore rather serious look. He accom-
panied Mr.. Long to the latter's church,
the Univarsalist
Throughout the morning no news of
Importance was conveyed to the White
House.
The active centers at the state, war and
navy departments were as busy as on
week days, despite the quiet Sunday calm

church goers.
Acting Secretary Moore and Assistant
Secretary Adee were together for some
time at the state department.. An official
notification Of neutrality has been re-
celved from Siam. This was regarded as
important as it completed the neutral at
tltude OF all Eastern Asia save China. No
word came from China so it is inferred
that her ports are still open to the Ameri-
can fleet.
At the navy department. Assistant Sec
rotary Roosevelt and most of the bureau
officials were on hand to attend to mat
ters of pressing Importance Senator
Davis, chairman of the committee on
foreign relations called during the morn
ing and had talk with Mr.. Roosevelt.
The leading naval officials took the view
that no reliable information was likely to
be received as to operations in the Philip
pines for a day or two, and possibly for a
week, 1t was pointed out by officials high
IN authority that Commodore Dewey
might not be able to strike a decisive
blow at the outset. If the Spanish fleet
came and risked an engagement then it
was pointed out, decisive results might
be expected very soon. But they might
adopt the same tactics of the Spanish
ships on the coast of Cuba, keeping in
shore and avoiding decisive engagement,
