WASHINGTON, July 2s-Admiral Ger
vera has forwarded to the Spanish Gov
eminent. through the French Embassy
his full report Of the naval engagement
which resulted in the humiliation OF the
Spanish fleet. The report is very long
covering many pages. in the Admiral 5
own writing. and is even a more elaborate
treatment Of the great engagement than
that OF Admiral sampson in his report to
the Navy Department.
Through the vicissitudes Of war, Admi-
raj Cervera's report, although addressed
20 the Spanish Minister OF Marine, was
submitted first 10 the American Navy De-
partment. in order that the precautions
might be taken usual in communications
passing between prisoners OF war anu
the enemys government.
FOR PROBATION.
Tho examination made by the naval au-
thorfties here was solely for the purposes
OF precaution. and care was taken not 70
intrude into the privacy Of the docu-
ment beyond this necessary Inspection
II was then sent 10 Ambass sdor Csmbon
10 be forwarded 10 the Spanish admiralty.
The strictest secrecy has been observed
while the document has been in transit
and. in order 10 avoid coniectural stories
as 10 the contents Of the report It can
be stated that no limitations as 10 its
contents has been allowed 10 escape from
the few persons. through whom Il has
passed On route 20 the Spanish Minister
Of Marine II the Cervera report ever
reaches the public 20 will be through the
Spanish Government although It is not
probable that the report is OF a character
likely TO he made public AZ Madrid.
