DASH TO DESTRUCTION.
Executive officer of the Colon Sends
a Report of 1t to Spain.

Report of 1t to Spain.

GUANTANAMO, July (via King
ston, July 9).-Lieur. Adolphus Ken
treres, the executive officer cf the Span
ish cruiser Cristobal Colon, has writ
ten to Spain an official account of the
movements of Admiral Cervera's
squadron in the fight. The Colon came
out last, at full speed, and tried to
escape the Brooklyn and Oregon, but
was compelled to beach sixty miles
west of Santiago at lis, and not at 2
o'clock, as stated in Admiral Sampson's
report.
The translation Of the letter by Ex-
ecutive Officer Kentreres Is as follows:
about o'clock the squadron got
under way, the ships one cables dis
tance from each other. At $3.50 the
Infanta Maria Teresa cleared the en-
trance to the harbor without receiving
any fire until she had passed the Nor
ro. The Vizcaya felt the fire when at
the head Of the entrance, as well as
the Cristobal Colon, and it is certain
that the Almirante Oquendo opened fire
while within the channel
when clear Of the entrance the Cris-
tobal Colon went ahead at her maxi
mum speed. The Infarta Maria Teresa,
at $50, when hardly clear Of the en-
trance, was seen to be on fire in her aft
rart, and few moments afterwards
was headed for the beach.
"a quarter of an hour later the AL
mirante OQuendo was seen to be on fire
and she, too, was headed for the beach
at the same point.
1.-The Vizcaya and the Cristobal Colon
continued the fight. The former, about
II o'clock, seeing herself overhauled by
the Brooklyn, maneuvered as if to ram,
and without doubt at that moment
must have received the projectiles that
started the fire on her, the same as
the other two ships, and she was seen
to head for the beach in order to strand
herself.
THE Crlstobal Colon alone remained
sustaining the fire Of the Brooklyn,
the only ship within range, but few
moments later she observed the Oregon
closing up and later the same with the
other ships
1.-The projectiles Of the Oregon began
reaching us at l p. M, and that, to-
gether with the fact that it was not
possible to fight with the after guns,
on account of the Colon's lack of large
caliber pieces, and the certainty Of be-
ing overhauled by the whole American
squadron in few hours, left no other
remedy than to run ashore in order
to avoid useless sacrifice Of life.
'The admiral made no signals while
at sea, instructions for forcing the
blockade having been given the cap

the morning of the previous day"

May Seek Intervention In Behalf of
Spain.
LONDON, July 10.-The Observers Vienna
correspondent says:
The Spanish reverses have caused here a
fresh outburst Of sympathy with Spain and
there Is great prospect of Intervention now
than at any previous period of the war.
AT the beginning of the war there was an
influential party at the Austro-Hungar.an an
court In favor Of Immediate Intervention, but
the wiser counsels of Count Golouchowski,
the Austro-Hungarian minister of foreign af-
fairs, prevailed. Now, however, that Count
Golouchowski has been accorded a vote of
confidence by the delegation giving him D: ac-
tically free hand in foreign affairs. he will
no longer oppose the wishes Of the court
party, and Austria, as soon as possible, will
attempt to arrange a European interven-
tion.''

Washington Bureau st. Paul Globe. I
Corcoran Building.

WASHINGTON, July 9.-(Special.)-
There IS growing belief here that
peace negotiations directly or indirect
ly are actually on, and that effort is
being made to prevent the facts from
becoming public property, for fear that
results might thus be delayed. There
have been frequent conferences at the
White house during the day, and there
is unusual activity in quarters that
would be disturbed by peace parleys.
Officially there have been repeated
denials that anything in the shape of
peace propositions have been received
from Spain, or through the intermedia-
tion of any of the powers. Foreign
ambassadors, and notably the British
minister, have been eager to offer
denials Of the persistent rumors of
peace propositions. This Is all regard
ed as just what might be expected un-
der the circumstances, it being argued
that the government would naturally
keep it's own counsel so long as there
was any chance for the negotiations
falling through.
PEACE RUMORS DENIED.
There was one runor to the effect
that a. direct proposition from Spain
had been received at the state de-
partment, through Ambassador Hay,
and that 1t had been forwarded to Mr..
Hay by the English minister at Mad
rid, who in turn had been requested
to do this by the Spanish minister Of
foreign affairs. This statement was flat
ly denied at the state department where
fnd hat
tion had been received from Mr.. Hay,
or from any other diplomat, at home
or abroad. All these denials, however,
are being received with certain
amount of incredulity by those who
are on the inside, but not sufficiently
so as to get the facts of such an i'm
portant proceeding as a proposition TO
terminate the war.
SANTIAGO SITUATION.
The peculiar situation Of affairs at
Santiago is regarded here as addition
ally significant. 1t is argued that there
would have been a resumption Of hos
tilities ere this had 1t not been for the
possibility Of a settlement Of the war
without further bloodshed. Comment

other without firing a shot, and that,

titled that they must surrender within
certain period or be shelled, Is that
such action is further indicative of
some sort of peace negotiations, or
something out Of the ordinary that has
not been explained There Is nothing
that can be called official in any of
these peace stories-on the contrary,
the government will not admit that
there is the slightest foundation for
such rumors.
CAMARA'S RETURN.
The return Of Admiral Camara to
Spain is regarded as due to the an
nouncement of the orders issued to Ad-
miral Watson, Of the American navy,
to prepare to depart for Spanish
waters. 1t Is said that the Spanish
government probably ascertained that
tIWould be impossible for Admiral Ca
mara to reach anywhere in time to

ment, hence his recall, as a forlorn

action of some newspapers in attach
ing to Lieut.. Colwell, naval attache at
London, certain statements relating to
the probability Of peace being declar-
ed has resulted In disagreeable action.
The Spanish ambassador at London
has lodged with the British foreign
Office an official complaint against the
continuance in London Of Lieut.. Col

that the>smatter can be explained sat-

IN FRONT OF SANTIAGO, July (via
Kingston, July 9).-Gen. Shaf:er has been
advised from Washington under date of July
8, as follows:
miles. with heavy reinforcements, will
leave tomorrow. Use greatest care investing
Santiago"
This is believed by everybody here to mean
that hostilities will not be resumed by our
side, unless they are forced to an attack,
until Gen. Miless arrival.
Refugees, many Of them starving although
loaded with jewels and money, are strung
along the road from Caney to Siboney The
bodies of four women, apparently well to do,
were found on the road today. There is no
place for the refugees here. 1t Is probable
the Cubans have been forced to camp e.se-
where and leave their base of supplies.

their fghting capabilities with the Americans.

MADRID, July a.-Duke Almodevar
de Rio, uron leaving the cabinet coun-
Gil today, denied that peace negotia-
tions had been opened, adding: "At the
present moment we must talk only Of
war;
1t is the general impression that the

A dispatch from Santiago de Cuba
announces that American reinforce

that the Reina Mercedes was sunk in
order to block the entrance to Santia-
go.

tate the peace negotiations.

are considering the proper form which
the armistice should assume.
after the cabinet meeting that the ru-
mors Of an armistice were without
foundation. adding that the govern
ment is only discussing the means Of
prosecuting the war.
According to the newspapers here,
the Spanish minister for foreign af-
fairs, Duke Almodovar de Rio, has de-
clared that no European power is dis
posed to Intervene in behalf of peace
unless the belligerents make a request
to that effect.
SPANISH RUMORS.
1t is rumored that the Spanish gov
ernment has received a dispatch from
Capt. Gen. Blanco, announcing that
Rear Admiral Sampson has sent him
telegraphic dispatch summoning the
Spanish commander to order the evac-
uat1on Of Cuba within forty-eight
hours, and announcing that otherwise

hope, that he may be able to render

squadron that Is about to start across
the ocean to shell Spanish coast cities.
FUTURE OF CUBA.
It is also considered significant that
there Is already heard discussion OF the
probable future Of Cuba, after the war
is ended. Some recent acts of the Gu
bans have caused the government offi-
cials to doubt the ability Of the Cubans
to properly govern themselves. Even
their leaders seem to be determined
upon a policy of reprisals, and this the
American government cannot permit.
The Cubans seem to think that they
will be placed in control Of Cuban cities
as rapidly as they are captured. In
this they are mistaken, according to
what is given out here on the subject.
America will maintain strict control in
Cuba-at least until the Cubans show
that they are fit to govern themselves.
That Is the way it is given out here
tonight.

FOREIGN RELATIONS.

There is no longer any fear Of inter-
ference by foreign powers. That Is the
generally expressed opinion here to-
night. The recent overwhelming de-
feat Of the Spanish squadron under
Admiral Cervera seems to have con-
vinced the foreigners that Admiral
Dewey's victory at Manila was by no
means accidental. Even Germany, the
one power that has most annoyed the
American government by its evident
hostility, has suddenly changed. and is
now expressing open friendship for the
United States. British newspapers are
calling attention Of the powers to the
fact that the American navy is not to
be despised, asserting that 1t Is the
equal of the best and the master Of the
second-raters-like Germany, for in
