Captain Sfgsbee's observations at
SantiagO-sketches of the Forts.
NEW YORK, June 3.-The United
States auxiliary cruiser st. Paul, Captain
Sigsbee, commanding, came into port
early to-day, having passed the night
at anchor off Sandy Hook. After the st.
Paul had cast anchor off Tompkinsville.
$. l., Captain Sigsbee in civilian attire,
went ashore, and thence proceeded to the
navy-yard. After visiting Commodore
Brnce there, he consented to talk to a
representative of the press.
1T was on the 18th when we captured
the Restormel" he said. II knew that
the Spaniards needed the coal very badly,
and l made every effort to see that they
should not get it,
while off Santiago with Schley / saw
two Spanish cruisers, which / am sure
were the Vizcaya and the Cristobal CO.
lon and Schley saw two torpedo-boats
There is no question that they are bot
tied up as tightly as can be in Santiago
harbor.
II went in so close that I made
sketches of the fortifoatons, which /
am sending TO Washington.
The Spanish guns could easily have
reached me, but the batteries made no
attempt TO fire, for what reason | do not
know. / am going to Washington with
dispatches from the fleet and as soon as
we have coaled and proVisioned, we shall
put TO sea again. This will probably not
be for three or four DAYS"
