AS TOT the forts, it is likely that he took up his position at a distance that placed his ships beyond the range of the old fashioned ordnance that formed nine-tenths or more of the de- fensiVe power of the works, and shelled them into silence, escaping in the meantime from the few pieces of mod ern ordnance that could be trained upon him. Of course, this opinion is speculative, but it represents the views Of some of the ablest strategists in the navy department
 DEWEY IN OCCUPATION.
 Admiral Dewey speaks of the Span- ish sick and wounded in the hospital within our lines" There can be but one interpretation placed upon this. namely, that the admiral has occu- pied Cavite, considerable town about seven miles toward the mouth of the bay from Manila. He has thus, sup posing he goes 10 farther, secured a base for naval fleet, which will serve through the remainder of the war at least. Cavite, it is said outside of the Notifications, possesses already many of the essentials Of naval sta tlon, among them a marine railway

CHARACTER OF THE VICTORY.
Admitted to Be Without Parallel in
 Naval History.

Washington, May 7.-The officials or the navy department as well as all the officers who were on duty at the war department were simply amazed at the extent of mortality inflicted upon the Spanish by Admiral Dewey, for from the moment when Secretary Long sent his dispatch of congratula- tion and the commodore became an admiral. officers scratched their heads in vain to think of any genuine hes tile engagement between armed forces that had been so one-sided in its re- suIts as the battle of Manila and the subsequent engagements.
 Never before, save when some ter rible accident such as the blowing up of a ship occurrd, was there any rec ord of such a result. The opinion was expressed by strategists that with su- perb judgment Dewey had absolutely smothered the fire of the Spanish bat teries and ships under the weight of his metal before they had an oppor- tunity to make any effective response.

AN EFFECT OF THE WAR.
America Will Emerge From It With
 Enlarged Notions.

London, May 7.-The Spectator in an article today urges America to keep the Philippine islands to raise a colored army of 10000 men, and says: With this effective army hold the Philippines, Hawaii and Porto Rico, paying the army of occupation out or the local revenues" Continuing. the Spectator says: With such 8 gar rison the islands would be as safe as a drawing room and as full of busi- ness as Broadway or the Strand"
 Referring to the outcome of the war, the Spectator remarks: "The Ameri- cans will emerge from the war with new ideas and larger ambitions. They will have defeated a second-class European state and will feel that as matters stand they would have been defeated by a first-class one. They could not have fought France, to say nothing of Great Britain, without suf- fering grave defeats at sea, and enor- nous losses on land.
 "That is not a position in which Americans will remain, and Washing ton will set itself to construct a first class iron fleet. That once built, tha desire for a position in the world will compel them to abandon the idea of non-lntervent1on and change the Mon roe doctrine into a direct and inef- fect1ve protectorate of the two Amert- cas-"

CATALOGUE OF THE SHIPS.

Washington, May 7.-As soon as the navy department had completed the list of the Spanish warships destroyed by Commodore Dewey they turned to the data showing the character of those ships destroyed, and it gave a full idea of the devastation caused by the American feet Taking the list in the order reported by Commodore Dewey, the ships destroyed are as fol- lows:

DEAD IN THE DOOR
A Spy of Spain Caught With Dsmninp
 Evidence Against Him.

Washington, May 7-An alleged spanish spy was arrested in this city tonight and is new in confinement at the arsenal The authorities are ex- tremely reticent regarding the details of the capture, and refuse positively to make public the name of the man. It is known, however, that he is an Englishman and up to within three weeks ago he had been an enlisted man on vessel of the United States navy. It is stated that evidence against the prisoner is absolutely con- elusive, and that a complete cipher code and other incriminating dccu- ments were found upon his person.
 The prisoner was immediately es- corted to the artillery barracks of the United States arsenal here and placed in close confinement under a military guard. Later it was learned that the prisoned has been known under the name of Henry Rawlings. He is 33 years of age and an Englishman by birth. He last served on the Chicago.

capable of lifting out of the water yes ssls of 2,000 tons displacement and hence of great service in repairing and cleaning the smaller vessels of the American fleet.
 An important feature of Admis al Dewey's callegram is the statement that he destroyed the Notifications at the entrance. This refers to the strong forts at Coregidor island lying at the entrance of the bay, and in sures the admiral against any inter- ruption in his line of communication with the outside world.
 FORCES FOR THE PHILIPPINES. As soon as the news in the cable grams had been fairly absorbed by the officials they turned their attention to the future. It was already in con- temptation to send some troops to re- lieye the squadron of the necessity of occupying Manila and the forts if Ad- miral Dewey should call for them. AL though he made no such request in his cablegram today, officials gather from his text that he was not in con- plete possession of the city, and they ascribed it to lack of men to occupy it. Therefore, without waiting further advices, this government will send troops to reinforce Admiral Dewey with all promptitude.
 Secretary Alger and General Miles were communicated with on the sub ject and they immediately planned all necessary arrangements for the send ing of an expedition from San Fran cisco. These plans will be put into immediate execution. The City Of Pekin is expected at San Francisco to- day, and the Mare Island navy yard promised to have her in condition to receive troops and supplies by next Thursday. Meanwhile Naval Pay Off cer Griffin will make every effort to get together some more swift merchant steamers to serve as transports.
 It is not doubted that sufficient number of these can be readily secured from among the swift and powerful steamers of the Great Northern lines, starting from San Francisco. General Miles thought that about 5000 troops would suffice to reinforce Dewey. With vessels like the City of Pekin no trou- ble would be found in carrying them to the Philippines in six ships within three weeks.
 WHERE THEY COME FROM.
 It is the purpose to start the expe- d1tlon on the 18th, a week from to- morrow. The troops will be taken from the west mainly. Senator Shoup was the first in the field with bid for his people for the Philip pine campaign. The departmen,
