Z ...Fiehtinx Bob" Not k.,i.a. '
The story printed by an English news
paper of the killing of Capt. s"Bob"
Evans and, some of his, men in the
coming tower of the Iowa by shell of
the Spanish cruiser Vizcaya, is pro-
nounced at the navy department to be a
cruel canard. No word was received
from Sampson Sunday and withza cable
line near him it is not imagined for
a moment that he would fail to report
Immediately an occurrence of such
gravity. Probably the sole foundation
for this story was the attack made about
week ago by Sampson upon the forts
at the entrance of Santiago ,harbor in
which the Spanish cruiser Reina Mer-
cedes was sunk and one of the Spanish
torpedo boats disabled. The report
in a Spanish source and the
officials of both the war and navy de-
partments are expecting that numbers
sof such canards will be put afioat
throughout the campaign. r
