Not one of the Yorktown's men who
were wounded at the time of their capture
is mentioned in the list of those who ar
rived at Manila but the despatch indicates
that they have been accounted for. Two
men who were among those taken by The
insurgents from the Urdaneta, and whose
names were not in the list of killed of the
vessel. are not mentioned as arriving in
Manila They are Benjamin Greene, cox
swain, whose father, b. J. Greene. resides

were wounded when captured with Gill
more, but survived. They are not men>
toned in Admiral Watson's report. Some
OF the naval prisoners were retaken by
American troops before the general rescue
of their companic1s. and ii Is possible that
these were not mentioned by Admiral Wat
son because he had previously reported
their release. In a statement prepared by
the Navy Department last Friday. it was
said that Rynders. Woodbury.. and Ven
vile. of the Yorktown; Green and Powers
of he Urdaneta. and Juraschi1a. of the
