NAME FOR 1T.
schley's Victory to Be Called Battle
of July 3rd."

Washington. July "a name has been
found at last for the remarkable naval
battle between the American and Spanish
fleets that resulted in the destruction of
Cervera's squadron The absence of a
name has been felt in the clumsy attempts
made in official reports to refer to the
engagement Lieutenant WhittIesey of
the navigation bureau has evolved a name
that is likely to be formally adopted for
the engagement It is The battle of
July 3rd.'
He does this for the reason that some of
the famous battles that the world has
known have been christeued as of the date
upOn which they were fought Thus the
Battle of July 1st'' was attached to the
famous naval engagement fought in mid
ocean between Lord HOWe's fleet on one
side and the combined French and Span
ish fleets the other which resulted in
the memorable victory for the British
navy.
