DEATH OF A MANILA CAPTAIN
Man Who Received Special Conn

Dies at Washington.

WASHINGTON Dec 11.-Commander e.
p. Wood, U. S. NJ, died of typhoid fever at
his residence here today He was in com
mand of the gunboat Petrol at the battle Of
Manila bay.
Commander Wood had been seriously Ill
for only a week before his death, He was
in charge of the Fifth lighthouse district,
with his office in Baltimore, but had been
in the habit of coming over to his home in
this city in the evening, Commander Wood
was ordered to command the Petrol Decem-
her 16, 1896, and it was while in command
that he earned the highest praise of Ad-
miral Dewey and his brother officers. The
Petrol Is the tiniest of gunboats and with
out protection beyond a steel deck. Be
cause of its light draft, Commander Wood
saw his opportunity TO run the Petrol close
inshore OFF the entrance to the harbor at
Cavita during the battle of Manila bay. The
