VILLALON'S BODY
Said to Have Been Found in Cave
Near Santiago.

Santiago, March 1O.-It was reported this
afternoon that the body of Captain Villa
Ion, who commanded the Spanish torpedo
boat destroyer Pluton which was sunk in
the destruction of Admiral Cervera's
squadron, has been discovered in a sitting
position in an arm chair in a cave about a
mile from Ell Moro to the westward. Those
who bring the news suggest that his sailors
propped him in the chair when wounded
and then left him to his fate For many
days a careful search was made for Cap
tain Villalons remains, but nothing was
ever found to Indicate where or how he
died
Captain of the Port, Scott, will go by tug
tomorrow to ascertain whether there is
any truth in the story, and If he body is
found 1t will be brought here for burial,
subject to instructions later from the Span
ish government.
The contents of the foregoing dispatch
are radically at variance with occurrences
which Immediately followed the destruction
of the Pluton. Three officers and six sailors
of the destroyer took refuge the Asso-
ciated Press dispatch boat Wanda. The
correspondent who had charge of the
Wanda, finding the nine Spaniards too
much of burden, went on board the con-
verted yacht Gloucester which had at
tackled and driven the Pluton and Furor
ashore, and asked acknowledgements
Wainwright what he should do with them.
Commander Wainwright replied that he
had both Captain Villalon, of the Pluton,
and the captain of the Furor on the Glou-
cester as prisoners and then introduced the
correspondent to Captain Villalon. The
correspondent told Captain Villalon that
| he would either have to land the Spaniards
| from the Wanda on Cuban soil or throw
| them overheard. Accordingly Captain VII
| lalon gave the correspondent written
| order addressed to the Spaniards on the
| Wanda instructing them to come on board
| the Gloucester and surrender This they
did.
