Admiral SIMPSONS flagship, The New

was greeted gruffly by the Admiral:

allowed aboard a warship in action and it had
taken presidential approval, over the navys

Such daring and resourcefulness set new
journalistic records during the Spanish-Amer'

hopeless fight for independence from Spain.
For two years Hilgert worked in secrecy, and
in danger, smuggling out his graphic reports
since General Weyler had forbade all news
paper work under threat Of the firing squad.
With Hilgert's dramatic fash, The Maine
