There is much speculation as to the
probable time of Admiral Dewey's arrival
off Sandy Hook. In the opinion Of many
officers the Olympia will not be sighted
first off Sandy Hook. They think that in
all probability the Admiral will so time
his approach TO the American coast that
he will have TO put into some bay, pos
Sbly the Delaware, for the purpose of
painting his ship before proceeding to
New York.
