The Spanish ships were alre1dy in
desperate condition. The Don An
tonic de Ulloa made magnificent
show of desperate bravery. With her
colors nailed to her mast she sank with
all hands. Her hull was riddled and
her upper deck swept clean, but the
guns on the lower deck were still fir
ing defiantly as the vessel sank.
A torpedo boat tried to creep along
the shore around the otfing and attack
the non-combatants Zafro, Nanshan
and McCulloch, but was driven ashore
and shot into bits. The Mindanao
was run on to the beach and the other
small crafts retired behind the mole.
Cavite was in utter ruins and surren-
dered, the gunboats were scuttled and
the arsenal was on fire and exploded,
causing great mortality. The commo-
dore of the fleet on board the Reina
Christina was wounded and her cap
tain, lieutenant, chaplain and midship,
man were killed by shell striking the
bridge. Eighty of her crew were killed
and 60 were wounded. On the Castillo
100 were killed and 60 were wounded
The Spanish casualties aggregate more
| than 1000.
There were no casualties among the
American crews except that six of the
Baltimore's men were slightly wound
ed by one of the enemy's shells strik
ing another shell lying on the decl
and exploding it. There were only
three shot holes in her upper works
five in the upper works of the Olympic
and a whaleboat smashed on thu
Raleigh. No other damage was don,
anywhere.
The forts at the entrance to the ba.
capitulated and were dismantled OF
Wednesday. The Americans cut tn
cable because the Spaniards refused t.
permit them to use it pending the sur
render of the city and it is therefor
not known what is transpiring o.

A new through Sleeping Car line between
St. Louis and Colorado Springs will be estab.
lished over the Wabash-Rock Island Short
Line, May 18th, 1898. The time will be the
fastest made with through service between
these two points by many hours. A through
Sleeper will leave st. Louis on Wabash train
No. 3, at 9.20 a. M, arriving at Colorado
Springs the next morning at II 90, with di.

a. m. This is the fastest regular through
service ever established between st. Louis
and Colorado. Returning, the Sleeper will
leave Colorado Springs at 2.45 p. M, and ar
rive at St. Louis the next evening at 6.l5.
Patrons of this line will avoid the only un'
pleasant feature heretofore attendant on Col
