Just as the Girls tobal Colon was polk

Commodore Schley sent the Brooklyn
madly rushing TO the westward to head
off Cervera's fleet.
He ordered the MASSACHUSETTS and
Oregon TO follow after. at the same
time ordering the Indiana. Iowa and
Texas to intercept the other vessels of
the escaping fleet. Then began one Of
the greatest sea fights in history.

In a few seconds the American fleet
was in motion. the Indiana, which was
closest, heading straight in shore TO

fire with an 1l-inch H~ontoria. and
mighty fountains of water rose above
the battleship and wet herdecks. Thu

The Indiana replied with her l3-incf
guns and a moment later let go every
thing she could bring to bear.
One Of the first shells fell on the
Spanish cruisers deck. Cervera was
going past. the Indiana rounded to and
gave him a broadside, and then as the
Iowa and the Texas opened on him the
doomed admiral turned to the harboI
mouth, where the Almirante Oquende
was Just coming into view.

but still with their steering gear and

turned back TO run for the mouth of
the harbor and seek safety inside, but
il was too late. The fight had been
carried nearly four miles west of the
MORO, and the New York was already
past the harbor mouth.

The Iowa, Indiana. Texas and Massa-

but as the fight thus moved westward
it became clear that the Americans
were willing hat the Spanish ships
should run far enough from the MORO
to lose the aid Of the guns there, and
in 20 minutes this was done.
This was a bit of strategy which IA
developed under fire and which wasac-
cepted at once by all the American
ships without orders. In fact, the
smoke often made it impossible to see
the signals which Commodore Schley
was making from the Brooklyn. so tire

line.

The Indiana fell on the Oquendo,

Every American vessel quickly
