As Seen From the United States Steam
ship Vixen.
How the Spanish Steamed Out Of
the Narbor and as Soon as Vigi-
liant Eyes Deserted Them,
Uncle Sans Cruisers Gave
Chase-The Brooklyn Engaged
the Two Leading Ships.

Copyright. 1898. by the Associated Press.)
OFF SANTIAGO DE CUBA, July
9th, via Port Antonio, Jamaica, July
9th, 3 p. m.-Following is the official
account of the engagement of the Span
ish squadron as seen from the Umted
States steamship Vixen.
At 9:45 a. m. the QuartermaSter on
duty reported that a tug was coming
out of the harbor. Examination proved
the vessel to be Spanish cruiser flying
a large Spanish flag and a smaller flag
at the masthead which was thought to
be the Admirals fiag, as it was on the
leading ship.
The Vixen at this time was lying
about two miles off shore and four
miles to the westward of MORO Castle,
and from this time to the end, was
never out of sight OF the chase and was
within two miles of the destruction OF
the three armored cruisers. Word was
at once sent to the commanding ofil-
Ger and all hands We're called TO quar-
tiers. All speed was ordered and the
helm was put to port to stand furtner
off shore and leave the Brooklyn'S fire
unobstructed. The Brooklyn had
hoisted the signal that the enemy was
attempting to escape and the Vixen,
noticing that the leading ship was turn
ing to the westward, signalled that the
enemy was attempting to escape in
that direction.
The fleet at this time had resumed
its station and the vessels began rapid
ly to close in toward the south of the
harbor, concentrating a terrific long
fire upon the enemy.
There was no doubt that the enemy
was coming out There We're several
anxious moments before it could be de-
termined whether the Spanish Admiral
would order his fleet to disperse and at
tempt to break through the blockading
squadron or would keep his ships to-
gether The leading vessel had changed
her course to the west, when a second
vessel appeared, followed shortly by the
CristoDal Colon. The Colon was easily
identified because her mast was be-
tween her smokestacks. The other
ships could not so easily be identified,
as the ViZcaya the Almirante Oquendo
and Infanta Maria Teresa had the same
appearance.
Meanwhile the fleet approached the
mouth Of the harbor and when the
fourth vessel appeared and turned to
the west it became evident that Ad-
miral Cervera had reconnoitered the
field and selected the west as the
weakest part of the blockade, because
the strong eastern current had drifted
the heaviest ships to the east of their
customary positions. The western por-
tion of the blockading circle was de-
Tended by the Vixen and the Brooklyn.
The Brooklyn headed north. appar-
emily intending to intercept the head of
the enemy's column. AS the leading
ships of the enemy's column appeared,
the western battery opened a heavy
fire. apparently directed at the eastern
The record-union., 1898-07-11

At 1.45 the chase narrowed itself to
the Cristobal Colon, which was close
ashore and seven miles from the Vixen,
with the Oregon one point on the star
board bow, distant mile and half,
the Brooklyn one point on the star
board bow, distant three miles; the
Texas on the starboard quarter, distant
one mile. The Iowa two points on the
starboard side, distant about eight
miles, and the New York one point on
the starboard quarter, distant ten
miles The last two vessels were ap-
parently off Boca Del Rio, but We're too
far distant to be certainly identified in
the thin haze and smoke from the lead
ing ships. No other vessels were in
sight. The smoke from the ship de-
stroyed at Juan Gonzales and to the
eastward could be seen, but the vessels
hull was invisible.
AT noon the relative positions of the
American ships were practically the
same. When the Vixen was abreast of
Sevilla, thirteen miles west of Santiago,
the Texas bore three points to the star
board quarter, a little less than a mile
off and the Oregon and Brooklyn one
point on the starboard and port bow,
distant four and five miles respectively
while the Cristobal Colon bore two
points on the starboard bow, distant
fully ten miles
According TO the official pilot on the
Vixen, that vessel was off Bayamita.
The estimated distance was taken from
the officers and official pilot. At 200
the New York was in line with the
burning Vizcaya, at distance of nine
miles.
At 12:15 the Texas was on the star
board quarter, the New York two points
on the starboard quarter and gaining.
At 1920 the Oregon fired a shot which
fell short. The Cristobal Colon was
then hull down from the Vixen. Dur
ing the next half hour the occasional
shots from the Oregon and the Brooklyn
struck near the chase.
AT l2:D the Texas was one point for
ward Of the starboard beam and was
steadily gaining. AT 1:13 the Oregon
and the Brooklyn headed in shore about
four points.
At 1:23 the Texas signaled. The en-
emy has surrendered"
This signal was reported to the New
York. but was not acknowledged.
The Cristobal Colon was seen through
glasses aiming close in shore, and, ac-
oording TO the pilot, at Rio Taruquino.
1t was thought on board the Vixen that
white flag was displayed on the Girls
tobal Colon. but this subsequently prov
ed to be escaping steam.
AT O'Clock boats from the Brooklyn
and the Oregon went alongside the CO.
lon. At 2:25 the Vixen stopped at Rio
Taruquino. near the Brooklyn and Ore
gon. The New York arrived five min
utes later and intercepted the boats
which were returning from the Colon.
In all the observations time was accu-
rately noted, but the watch used was
i've minutes behind the deck clock,
which agreed very nearly with the
hours indicated by the bells on the
other vessels

The golf shirt for men has been
fully as successful as the shirt
waist for women. Both garments
were successful because, to put it
plainly, both deserved to be sue
cessful. The golf shirt, with its
soft, unlaundered bosom, de
signed, as it is, to be worn with
laundered collar and cuffs, is not
only dressy, but comfortable, and
it affords a pleasant change from
the conventional plain white shirts.
