Thu splendid victory achieved by

subject of much comment among
naval experts in Europe. In mm in
terview Vice Admiral Colomb, of the
Kngllsh navy, and the author of sev
eral naval works, paid : "1 doubt if
there over was suoli an extraordinary
illustration of the iuiluolico of sea
power. A superior ileet has attacked
and beaten a Spanish tleet supported
by batteries, and It now appears it
passed those batteries and has taken
up nu unassailable position off Manila
The boldness of the American coin
inander is beyond question. Hence

Nothing can detract from the dash
and vigor of the American exploit or
dim tlio glory which Dewey bus shed
upon the American navy. It may be
bad for tho world, for assuredly the
American navy will never accept a
subordinate place after this exhibl
tion of wliut it can do."
