der, had directed that all their personal effects
should be retained by the officers. This order
did not modify. The Cristobal Colon was not
injured by our firing and probably is not much
injured by Bleaching, though she ran ashore at
high speed.
When all the work was done so we'll II Is diff
ficult to discriminate In praise The object OF
the blockade Of Cerveras squadron was fully
accomplished and each Individual bore well his
part In 1.-THE commodore in command OF the
second division the captains OF ships their
officers and men, The fire OF the battleshps
was powerful and destructive and the resist
ance OF the Spanish squadron was, In great
part, broken almost before they had got be-
yond the range OF their own forts The fine
speed Of the Oregon enabled her to take o
front position in the chase and the Crlstobal
Colon did not give up until the Oregon had
thrown iS-inch shell beyond her This
performance adds TO the already brill
liant record of this fine battleship, and
speaks highly OF the skill and care with which
her admirable efficiency has been maintained
durlnga service unprecedented In the history
of vessels OF her class. The BroolSlyn's west
erly blockading position gave her an advnn-
tage in the chase which she maintained to the
end and she employed her fine battery with
telling effect The Texas and the New York
were gaining on the chase during the last
hour, and had an accident beiallen the Brook
ly or the Oregon would have speedily over
hauled the Cristobal Colon. From the mo-
ment the Spanish vessel exhausted her first
burst OF speed the result was never In doubt
Several of the ships were struck, the Brook
lyn more often than the Others but very slight
material injury was done, the greatest being
aboard the Iowa, Our loss was one man killed
and one wounded, both on the Brooklyn 1t
is difficult to explain this immunity from loss
Of life or injury to ships in combat with
modern war vessels of the best type; but
Spanish gunnery is poor at the best, and
the superior weight and accuracy of our
fire speedily drove the men from their guns and
slenced their fire, An examination OF the
stranded vessels shows that the Almirante
Oquendo especially'sufIered terribly from this
fire, Her sides are everywhere pierced and
her decks were strewn with the charred re-
mains OF those who had fallen,
A board appointed by me several weeks ago
has made q critical examination Of the vessels
both with view of reporting upon the result
of our fire and the military features involved
and Of reporting upon the chance of saving any
Of them and OF wrecking the remainder The
report OF the board will be speedily forwarded

LOOKING TOWARD MANILA.
Administration Preparing to Concentrate
Great Naval Force There, Anticipate
Ing International Complications.

Washington, July 2z-Tremendous
activity is observable in naval prepare
tions at this writing, although the
fact is not being advertised. Secre-
tary Long says that within very
short time the American navy would
be in a better condition than ever be-
fore, and that it would be in readi-
ness at a moments notice to meet any
emergency which might confront the
nation. 1t is to enable the country
to present rugged and impressive
front should there be volcanic eli
max from the international complica-
ton later on, for it is idle to pre-
tend that the administration is entire
ly free from apprehension that there
may be need of display of our full
strength. The concentration of for
midable fleets at the Philippines by
Germany, Russia, Japan and England
is not being viewed with unconcern
by the administration. Manila is re-
garded as the danger point. 1t is
there that trouble is to be looked for
first if we are to become involved in
an international row.

Another Report About Skaters Troops

New York, July 2s.-The Washing
ton correspondent of the Evening Post
says: The troops at Santiago will be
brought home and encamped at Mon
tauk Point, N. Y. The instructions to
Gen. Shafter caution him to await the
determination of the yellow fever, and
special stress is placed on the neces-
sity of exercising the greatest care
that the disease be kept out of the
transports which visit Santiago. The
troops held in reserve at Montauk
Point will undoubtedly be of the large
army destined for Havana province in
tho autumn.

Refugees ReturnInr to Cuba.

Santiago, July 27.-Cuban refugees
are focking here from all directions.
Many of them were driven out at the
beginning of the war three years ago.
All the nighboring islands are sending
big delegations. The British steamer
Dee brought $50 exiles from Kingston.
Hundreds are coming from the United
States and Mexico. AS a rule they
have been advised of the lack of food,
but the prospect of hardship is more
than balanced by the satisfaction of
living in their old homes.

As Germany Views II.

Berlin, July %. The National Ga
zette says: Although Americas haste
to obtain footing in Porto Rico is
rather contrary to the strict canons
of military usage, it is perhaps justi-
fled by the assumption that its con-
quest will place America in a better
position to dictate terms of peace. AS
Spain is unable to pay indemnity,
America has right to demand an en-
forced compensation.

They win Welcome Peace.

Madrid, July 9s.-The news that the
government is suing for peace has
caused neither surprise nor sensation
here. The attitude of a majority of
the newspapers show that the country
will welcome peace if it can avoid the
payment of an indemnity and the loss
of the Philippines, where, it is now
taken for granted, the United States
will retain coaling station only.
Only few Carlist, republican and in
dependent papers pretend that Ameri-
cas- demands will not be acceptable.

Guantanamo Bay, July a. Col.
Ewers returned to Santiago after re-
ceiving the surrender of the Spanish
troops at Caimanera, He was accom-
panied by Mr.. Brooks the British COM
sui, and officers from Caimanera. Cal
manera was found to be strongly de-
Tended and rife pits and earthworlSs
completely surrounded the village.
Only the smokestack Of the Sandoval,
the Spanish gunboat sunk at that
place, is visible above water and 1t is
improbable that she can be raised.
The Spanish troops at Caimanera Are

What a ConlInr station Means.

st. Paul, Mimi, July 30. --Senator
Davis said concerning the terms of
peace with Spain, particularly as to
the Philippines: 1--WE ought to have a
coaling station there, and by q coal
ing station do not mean heap of
coal on a dock. A coaling station
means an American colony and ship
yards and dry docks, and that means
sufficient number of troops to main
tain our authority there"
