AMERICAN STRATEGY.

The Iowa steamed for "A time
forward with the Oguend0 and the
Indiana did the same with tie
VizcaJa. AS the fight thus moved
westward 1t became clear that the
Americans we're willing that the
Spanish ships should run t r
enough from the MORO to lose thu
aid of the guns there, ,and in twenty
minutes this was done.
This was a bit Of strategy which
was developed under fire and which
was accepted at once by all the
American ships without orders La
fact, the smoke often made 1t im
possible TO see the signals which
Commodore Schley was making
from the Brooklyn so tremendou
was the firing all aIOng the liue.
Both the Oquendo aud the VIZ
caya were sometimes within d
thousand yards of the Indiana.
The range varied, ont, as a rule, il
was short and extremely deadly
Nevertheless, the high speed and
thick armOr of their class stood the
Spanish ships IN good stead az
they followed in the path Of honor
marked out by Admiral Cervera.
Three quarters of an hour after
the action began it was evident
that the Spanish had many guns
disabled aud would have to sdr.
render. There we're terrible casual
ties on the eneny's ships. As the
smoke cleared little one could
zee the Spanish flagship, her port
broadsIde spoutiug smoke, still
holding on to the westward.
The Texas aud the Massachu-
setts joined the Indiana and the
Iowa. The Oquendo and the Viz
caya hugged the shore aud steam
ed after Cervera on the Colon, to
go with him to defeat and death.
SHIPS SET ON FIRE.
Shells burst on the decks of the
Spanish cruisers at short inter-
walls. Often the ships we're on fire,
bat again and again their crews
extiuguished the flames and
manned again aud again the guns
from which they had been driven.

SUNDAY, Jaly 3. With Admiral
Sampsou's Fleet, OF Santiago,
Ccabled from Port Antouio, Mon
day. Us Altered alOug the shore
for miles TO the west of Moro Castle,
lie the armored cruisers anu tor
pedO boat deStToyers that com
prSed Admiral Cervera's fleet. 10
IA running fight OF two hours these
vessels, the crea 4 of the Spanish
navy, we're almost aunihilated this
morning by powerful ships OF : d.
mlral SIMPSONS fleet.
Admiral Cervera, after making
as plucky IA fight against oyer
whelming odds as is recorded IN
naval history, was compelled to
Surrender. He was taken as a
prisoner OF war, together with
every man in his fleet not dOwned
or killed in the action.
The Spanish Admiral was wOnn'
ded in one Of his arms. His sp'en-
did ships, the CriStoDaI Colon,
flagship; the Nzcaya, AImirante
OQuendO aud lufanta Maria Teresa,
aud the tOrpedO-bOdt destro>ers,
Furor and Pluton, lie on 'be Cuban
rocks, shell ridden, smoker hulks.
CERvERA SURRENDERs HIS
SWORD.
Cervera. on the Colon, made the
longest run toward liberty. He
Welded to fate only IN the face of
death. and Is prisoner now on
Gloucester, which before the war
was J. PierpOnt Morgan'S Yacht
COrsalr.
When his ship, all af ,me, was
pounding on the shore, ten miles
west of Santiago, d boat from the
Gloucester put out to him and he
gave hiS sword to Lieutenant Nor
ton, who was in charge Of the boat.
When be went aboard the GlOo-
cester he was met 10y Lieut.. Com.
Richard Wainwright, who was the
watch officer of the Maine the
night she was blown up in Havana
harbOr.
I'll congratulate you, sir" said the
lieutenant.cOmmander, as he
grasped the hama Of the Spanish
admiral. "YOu have made as
gallant a fixh; as ever was made
on the sea"
is estimated that about 1900
prisoners were taken. OF these
40 were taken by the Iowa, Capt
RObley ID, Evans.
From the very first of the fight
ing the little Gloucester was in the
thickes; Of 1t. At one time she
was pouring her slx.pOunder shells
against the entire Spanish fleet,
while the guns OF Moro Castle
were making her their target. Sue
riddled the Spanish destroyers and
and fought the Vizaya aud OquendO
as tcely as IT she were a battle
ship.

In few seconds the American

was then going fast, ana the In
diana rounded to give him a
broadslde. As the Iowa aud the
Texas opened fire the Almiranto
OqHendO was just coming into
view In the harbOr mouth.
At first one could scarcely ba
lieve his eyes, but when the
Ocnendo appeared and teimed
swiftly westward into the smoke,
where Cervera's flag still flew, t
flashed upon those on the Amer.
can fleet that here was to be his
tOry.making indeed. 1t was
sublime spectacle OF desperate
admiral, who bad decided to give
battle against overwhelming odds
in the open water rather than re.
nam and blow up his own ships
IN the harbOr of the beleaguered
city.
SPANISH FIRED BROADSIDES.
Ceryera'S flag was hidden for n
time az he fed Westward, his port
broadside emitting flashes Of
fame, which marked his progress.
For the next five minutes he ran
gauntlet such as few ships bad
ever ran IN history.
The Indiana fell on the Oquendo,
paving no heed 20 the Moro bat
terry, whose gunners tried hard to
protect the cruiser az she moved
to the westward. TIE Iowa left
Cervera 90 on INTO the hands OF
the Oregon, Massachusetts and
Brooklyn, and then turned, with
the Texas, to pound the Oquendo
Soon every American ship in tue
was ia action. Smoke
the coast aud blew away
lszlly, revealing geysers abOnt the
ships where the Spanish shells
from the cruisers and the Morro
tore the water.
Another ship emerged from the
harbor. 1t was the Vizcaya, con.
ing at fall speed, smoke clrling
over her bow as she took her course
to the westward and brought her
bow guus into play.
Next came the lnfanta Maria
Teresa and Spain's two dreaded
torpedo boat destroyers, perhaps
two hundred yards apart. The
Maria Teresa was received with a
terrific storm of shells. Smashed
and on fire she was beaChed close
to the WOrrO.

said:
Il have known OF Warmers Safe Cure
for years. and I know Of what great
help IL has been to large numbers of
people who have used Il. Many of these
persons have felt hat they cannot do
without 1t. These things prove that IL
undoubtedly merits the high confidence
IL enjoys"
Take the advice OF go best and most
reliable people.
Use only that which has been tested
thoroughly and Endorsed by the highest
authorities in the land.
Warmers Safe Cure stands upon a
plane by itself.
1t is in every sense scientifically
superior.
II cures the acids and rheums which
are in the blood of every person after
going through the strain of a winter.
How?
BY driving these poisons from the
body through the Kidneys.
IL stops headaches by checking their
cause.
Ii checks neuralgia and rheumatism
by destroying the uric acid which
causes rheumatism.
1t keeps you in good health!

Lew Wallace Will Fight.

Indianapolis, Ind, April 1S.-General
Lew Wallace, h famous soldier, dip
lomat and novelist, who was Il years
old April 10, has formally withdrawn
from the race for the United States
senate n announces that he will EN-
ter the army and fight for Cuban indie
p~endence.
In a statement given out over his sig
nature. General Wallace says:
I'm view of the certainty of war with
Spain. l have rendered the national
government my services in the field.
That / have been a candidate for the
United States senate may subject this
action on my part to misconstruction.
so 1 beg to my withdrawal
from the senatorial race. To the many
republicans who have given me their
support, ! offer my hearty thanks and
most grateful acknowledgment"
General Wallace does not seem to be
speaking unadvisedly. 1t Is known
that he recently addressed a letter to
the president, making a tender of his
services. and IL is believed that he re-
ceived a favorable answer and assur-
ance that he would be appointed to n
position commensurate with his talents
and with his distinguished services in
the war of the rebellion. AS the
lar army and the National Guard are
already Differed. ii is assumed that he
will be a general of volunteers.

VOLUNTEERS WANTED.
The President tn BE authorized to Call
Out $4,000 Men.

Out 10 900 Men.
Washington, April 1~S.-Representa-
1--WE Hull of Iowa, chairman of the
house committee on military affairs.
Will tomorrow introduce a bill author
lzing the president to issue a call for
volunteers to the number of so. 900 or
10000 men. 1t will be considered i'm
mediately by the committee. it's pas
sage expedited as rapidly as possible.
and Will take effect Immediately upun
the presidents approval. Its terms will
authorize the president to call on the
various states for quotas in making
up the aggregate.
BY reading in this way, instead of
speci1cally looking to calling out the
various state militia, it will avoid sew
eral embarrassing technicalities, a
main one being the constitutional inhi-
Dition OF sending state militia out of
the country, while volunteers, so called
Tor. a be ordered anywhere. 1t is
likely that II the situation develops INTO
such grave proportions as is now ex-
pected, a second call for 100. 600 volun-
teers viii be issued by the president.
The necessity for this immense mum
per, however, is not clear TO the mill
tary authorities at his time. The
draft OF the present war measure has
just been framed by the war depart
ment officials, and the leading mem
bers OF the military committee have al
ready conferred with the war depart
ment authorities with the necessity of
this line, the latter having announced
that a maximum of so, 600 volunteers
be sufficient at this time.

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
Folio Says II Is 1T the Bottom Of the
Present Trouble.

foio Says II Is III the Bottom of the
Present Trouble.
Berlin. April 1S.-The Washington
correspondent of the Lokal Anzeiger re-
ports an interview with Senior Polo v
Bernabe, described as the first the
spanish minister to the United States
mas given since his arrival in Washing
ton, in which he is represented as say
ing: The original idea of the Monroe
doctrine was hat II should be applied
Tor defensive purposes and not on the
offensive, as Is now the case. In my
opinion. the newest application Of the
monroe doctrine creates a serious pre-
cedent and threatens the raising of sim
liar cases in the future. Spain has made
extraordinary concessions, ignored in
suit, permitted the carrying of provis-
ions TO Cuba and ceased hostilities.
Neither the insurgents nor the United
states have given sufficient recognition
to this. Spain expects for certain that
the United States within a reasonable
time will be satisfied OF the success of
the Spanish concession. She repudiates
all responsibility for the Maine catastro-
pne, out is prepared to submit the mat
ter to an international court of arbitra-
ton, to whose judgment she will bow"
According to the correspondent, Senior
Polo y Bernabe, Notwithstanding the ex-
listing excitement. hopes that a more
quiet consideration of the question at
issue will enable the United States to
carry on diplomatic negotiations which
Will render his departure from Wash
ington unnecessary. Senior Polo y Ber-
nabe assured the correspondent that up
to the time of the granting Of the in
terview he had not received any in
structions relative to his departure.

i What They Have to Sa,
Warmers Safe Cure.

These are W great men. One Is
Prof. Lewis Swift. the astronomer, who
has discovered more comets than any
man who ever lived before upon the
earth. The other Is Prof. S. A. Latti-
more. vice president of the University
of Rochester, professor of chemistry
and analyst OF foods and medicines Of
the New York state board of health.
Both these great men are careful OBJ
servers and deeply interested in every
thing tina can in any way help people
to longer life and happiness. Hence II
comes that after careful observation
they unhesitatingly indorse a popular
preparation.
Professor baltimore say
Il know the formula OF Warmers
Safe Cure. I have investigated the
processes OF its manufacture, which
are conducted with extreme care and
according to the best methods. have
taken from the laboratory samples OF
all the articles used in the preparation
of Safe Cure. as well as the medicine
into which they enter. ! have also pur-
chased from different druggists War

Another Demonstration.

Barcelona, April 1S.-Although Sun
day morning passed quietly here, there
was a demonstration last evening when
the crowds which gathered I'm front Of
the newspaper offices received the lat
est news of the action taken by the
United States in regard to Cuba. After
1t became known that the senate had
passed a resolution favoring recognition
OF the present Cuban government there
was a scene of the greatest excitement
and patriotic shouts were raised on all
sides. When the students heard the
news on leaving the theaters they pa
raded the streets, cheering for Spain,
n made an attempt to reach the Unit
ed States consulate. The authorities
however. had taken precautions, and
the students n others who took part
in the disturbances were dispersed.
