This year it was the privilege Of
many Of us to hear and to con-
trast two able gentlemen Of en-
tirely different forensic ability.
One was 8 distinguished Congress-
man, the other al elocntionist Of
wide reputation. Both were mature
ally gifted With pcsEerful pleasing
and resonant voices. The one was
simple, easy and natural on the
stage, the other was artistic and
histrionic. The one could be heard
in all parts Of the room and at all
times, the other was at times with
difficulty followed because of a
high-tension articulation. Of
course we recognize their subjects
and the manner of treatment de-
manded we're altogether different,
but even the drama should appeal.

Inc entire American fleet passed all the
Spanish ships and batteries and each time
drew In closer and delivered fire at more
deadly range
During two hours and a half there was
tremendous resistance from the eleven
Spanish ships and five land batteries, all In
Iul play against the six American war
SHIPS Fut most of their powder was spent
In vain, while the American marksmenship
was 1aultless. Every shot counted.
AT 1:45 a. m. we withdrew to ascertain the
damages and permit the smoke to clear. 1t
was then seen that sevral Spanish ships
were crippled or burning, while our vessels
had suffered hardly at ALL
Admiral Dewey called his captains into
consultation, and arrangements were made
for another attack.
ANOTHER ATTACK.
At 1O4O a. M he attacked again, the
Baltimore leading. She advanced straight
upon the enemy, Smelling them constantly
and the other Americans followed, working
their guns as rapidly they fould load and
fire.
The effect of this assault was terrific.
Ship after ship of the Spaniards went down
or was run ashore to keep them from sink
ing or falling into our hands.
AT 2:4o p. M, the Spanards struck their
colors.
and most of his survivors fed with him.
rms ended the work of May l, a day ever
10 De glorious in American history
The next day, May 2, we landed a force
of marines at Cavite. They completed the
destruction of the Spanish fleet, and our
batteries established a guard for the pro-
lection of the Spanish hospitals
All the American damage was practically
on the cruiser Baltimore. When she made
her gallant dash in the second engagement
some ammunition her deck exploded,
ana this was what injured most of the
Americans who were hurt
Inc Spanish had been anchored behind
stones and breakwaterS off Cavite but no
patrols had been established and there was
no searchlight guarding the harbor entrance.
On approaching Cavite two torpedo boats
shot out to menace the American fleet, but
after sighting us Immediately ran for cover
without discharging a single torpedo.
The resistance of the forts could hardly
be called effective or desperate.
The Olympia turned few guns on Cavite
arsenal and its magazine exploded killing
over 40 Spaniards@and wounded many more.
Thls practically sended the fire from the
batteries, the Spanish artilleries fearing the
deadly marknfansfiip of American gunners
When l lefty Commodore Dewey was
practically in complete control, though :he
city proper had hot fallen.
Probably at this writing it has COM
pletely capitulated, as, although the Span
1ards nave a numerous force, they have
not the whereNthal to withstand the siege.
Admiral Monitor and his officers are still
in the cid portion of Manila. Altogether it
was the greatest naval fight Of the age.
