comment by the admiral.
The report is dated August 8, on the
flagship New York, and begins with a
statement of the determination reached
by the navy department to send squad

pose OF observation. because, of infoama,

Admiral Cervera's squadron from the
Cape Verde islands. On the voyage east

which began May a, Admiral Sampson re
ports there were experienced endless
trouble and delay because of the ineffi
cheney of the two monitors accompanying
the other ships and which had to be takeI
in tow. Their coal supply was so small
that it was evident that they must eithe

says:
Had the sea been rough, or had tn
enemy appeared at this juncture, tn
squadron would have been in much bet
ter position for an engagement had tn
mentors been elsewhere. Subsequently
when engaging the batteries of San Juar
it was evident that their shooting wa

Sent schley to Santiago.

On may 81 instructions were gotten by
SAMPSON for Commodore Schley and sent
him via the Marblehead regarding the
possibility of the Spanish fleet being at
Santiago. They are in part as follows;
"U. S. Flagship New York first rate),

de..troyers. If you are satisfied they are

Cuba, and if the enemy is there blockade
him in port. You will probably find ii

or others-to learn definitely that thu
shirs are in port, it being impossible L
see into it from the outside"
The admiral said he felt much concerned
as to the delivery of these orders, ant
sent duplicate by the Hawk with an ad
ditional memorandum. The admiral sug
gested that if the information did no
reach Commodore Schley before daylight
of MAY 90 to mask the real direction h
: should take as much as possible. He adds
"And then follow the Spanish squad
ron, whichever direction they take"
The admiral off Havana gives copies
e orders of battle which were to be follow

Bombardment of San Juan.

A consultation was held on board the
fla eghip, and the admiral says that he
decided to stand on toward the east as far
as San Juan, Puerto Rico, on the chance
of finding the Spanish squadron in that
port, where, if they were not successful
in destroying it, it could be at least
blockaded and held. The squadron arrived
off San Juan on the morning of the 18th,
and the bombardment of the place en-
SUED. Regarding his action at this place,
the admiral says

Miles, he fought the latter at every
point. and. backed 10y Alger, defeated
him on every issue. He secured the
rejection of every man proposed by
Miles, and was able TO prevent him
