COMPLETED THE JOB.

Second Attack Begun by Commodore
Dewey About Noon.
The battle, which was started at
about $3.50 u. NJ, and adjourned at $3.50
a. m, was resumed about noon, when
Commodore George Dewey started in
to put the finishing touches on his
glorious work. There was not much
fight left in the Sraniards by that time,
and at 2 D. NJ the Petrol and Concord
had shot the Cavite batteries into ST.
lence, leaving them heaps OF ruins and
floating the white flag.
The Spanish gunboats were then
scuttled, the arsenal was on fire and
the explosion of Spanish magazine
caused further mortality among the
defenders of Spain ca shore.
On the water the burning, sunken or
destroyed Spanish vessels could be
seen, while only the cruiser Baltimore
had suffered in any way from the fire
of the enemy. A shot winch struck
her exploded some ammunition neir
one of her guns and slightly injured
half a dozen of the crew.
Several shots passed dangerously
close to Commodore Dewey but little if
any damage was done Oh board the
flagship On the other hand about 400
men are said to have been killed on
board the Spanish ships,
Which Were Totally Destroyed.
Admiral Montejo, the SPANS h COM
mander, transferred his flag to the
Isle de Cuba when his ship eau ght fire,
but the latter was destroyed in due
course of time.

some estimate the number OF Spanish
wounded at over 1000 men. The

the Krupp guns on the Varlande de

the engagement, Commodore Dewey

The American ships then passed
backwards and forwards six times
across in front of the Spaniards, pour.
ing in upon the latter perfect hail OF
shot and shell. Every American shot
seemed to tell while almost every Span
ish shot missed the mark.
Alter having thus scattered death
and Generalization among the Spanish
fleet and in the Spanish batteries the
American fleet retired for breakfast.
and incidentally, a council of war was
held on board the Olympia.
By this time the Spanish ships were
in desperate condition. The flagship
Reina Christina was riddled with shot
and shell, one of her steam pipss burst
and she was en- fire. The Castillo was
also on fire, and they were eventually
Burned to the Waters Edge.
The CjUn Antonio de Ulloa made a
most magnificent show of desperate
bravery. When her commander found
she was so torn by the American
shells that he could not keep her
afloat he nailed her colors to the mast
and she sank with all hands fighting to
the last. Her hull was completely rid
died and her upper deck had been
swept clean by the awful fire of the
American guns, but the Spaniards,
though their vessel was sinking be-
meath them, continued working her
guns on her lower deck until she sank
beneath the waters.
During the engagement Spanish
torpedo boat crept along the shore and
around the offing in an attempt to at.
tack the American store ships, but she
was promptly discovered. was driven
ashore and actually shot to pieces.
The Mindanano in the meantime had
been run ashore to save her from sink

Hone KoNG, May 9.-Among ma.
val men, military men and civilians,
there is only one subject of discussion,
the brilliant, dashing, annihilating VIC
tory of the American fleet under Com
modore Dewey over the Spanish fleet
commanded by Admiral Montejo in
Manila bay on Sunday last.
Commodore Dewey's orders were to
capture or destroy the Spanish feet,
and never were instructions executed
in SO complete a fashion. At the end
of seven hours there was absolutely
nothing left of the Spanish fleet but
few relics. The American commander
most skillfully arranged every detail
of the action, and even the most insig-
nifcant features We're carried out with
perfect punctuality and in railroad time
table order.
Spaniards Had the Advantage.
The position occupied by the Span
iards, the support which their ships re-
ceived from the land batteries and the
big guns they had ashore gave them an
enormous advantage. Therefore, when
it is considered that the Spaniards lost
over 1900 men killed and wounded; that
all their ships, amounting to about IA,
were destroyed, and that their naval
arsenal at Cavite was also destroyed
with its deIenses, it will become ap-
parent that the victory of the American
commodore is one of the most complete
and wonderful achievements i'll the
history of naval warfare Not a man
on board the American fleet was killed;
not ship was damaged to any extent,
and only SIX men were injured slightly
on board the Baltimore. This grand
achievement is quite as much due to
the generalship of Commodore Dewey
as to the fact that American gunners,
ships and guns are superior to any
thing in the same line afioat anywhere.
Credit must also be given to the fullest
extent to the officers under Com modore
Dewey, for to a man they seconded
their gallant commander in every way.

THE FIRST ENGAGEMENT.

It Began at $3.50 in the Morning and
Cont .nued Three Hours.
The American feet entered Manila
bay ON Sunday night with the greatest
of ease. The Spaniards had not estao-
lished a patrol and there were no
searchlights at the entrance Of the bay.
In fact the American ships would
probably have passed inside the bay
without any challenge, had it not been
that some SPARKS few up from the Nc
Culloch's funnel. Thereupon few
shots were exchanged with the batter
les on Corregidor island, but the fleet
did not slow down, and soon took up
position near Cavite awaiting dawn, III
order to commence hostiiities.
The early hours of the morning re-
vealed the opposing ships to each
other, and the Spanish flagship opened
fire. Her action was followed by some
of the larger Spanish warships, and
then the Cavite forts opened up and
the smaller Spanish warships brought
their guns into play.
The American squadron which had
been led into the bay and through the
channel by the flagship olympia did
not reply to this, although the
shells of the spaniards
began to strike the water around them,
but moved majesticaily onward.
When nearing Baker bay sudden up.
heavel of water short distance ahead
of the olympia showed that the Span.
iards had exploded a mine or torpedo.
This was followed by a second and
similar explosion. They were both ut.
terly unsuccessful.
The American feet was then draw
ing nearer and nearer to the Spaniards,
whose gunnery was very poor, the
shots from the Cavite battery and
from Spanish ships being equally
badly aimed, either falling short or go
ing wide Of the mark. When the
American fleet entered the bay, COM
ing through the southern channel, the
following was their order: The flag
ship olympia, the Baltimore, the Ra-
leigh, the Concord. the Boston and the
Petrol, the McCulloch, with two store
ships, the Nanshan and Zafiro, bring.
ing up the rear, and in that order they
swept grandly before the city ano
faced the enemy in column line.
Though the Spani ards had opened fire
at 5000 yards the
Americans Reserved Their Fire
until within 1000 yards Of the enemy,
when the real battle began.
The Reina Christina, Castillo, Don
Antonio de Ulloa, Isla dc Cuba, Isla de
Lnzon and the Mindanano were in line

Borrowers of Tobacco.

There are some smokers who do not
buy tobacco or cigars more than once a
year. There is probably 10 other article
which is SO often borrowed and not re-
paid as tobacco. A wit in this city olSce
said in a newspaper paragraph, "The
American people last year used so, 900,
600 pounds of chewing tobacco, half OF
which they borrowed" There is almost
as much truth as fun in that assertion.
