SlKtml xvas miide from the Iowa that the enemy was coiiiIiik out, but his movement had been discovered from this ship at the same moment. Thin vesHel was the farthest west, ex cept the Vixen, nt the blockading1 line.

The con centration of the fire of the Bquudrnn upon the ships lomlng nut xvas must furious mid ti'trltlc, und cieat damage xvas dune them. About t!U or 2.1 minutes after the en gagement beRUli, two vessels. tlimjRllt to be the Maria Teresa and ouueudn, and since wi tiled as such, took thu from the effeellve slielllng of the squad ron, and xtere forced to run on the beach some six or seven miles west of the harbor entrance, xvhere they burned and blew up later. The torpedo bout destroyers were destroyed earl' In the tietiiin, but the snmku xvas so dense In their direction that 1 cannot say to which vessel or vessels the credit be longs. This doubtless xvas better seen from your llugshlp. The Vlzcnya and Colon, pereelvlnu the disaster to their consorts, continued ut full speed to the weslxvntd to es cape, and were followed and engaged In a running light xx 1th the Hrnoklyn, Texas, Iowa and Oregon until 10:00, xvheu the Vlzrnjn took lite from our sheljs. She put her helm to port, and xvlth a heavy list to poit stood In shore and ran nground at Asearrade ros, about 20 miles west of Santiago, on fire fore and aft, and where she blew up during the night. Observing that she had struck her colors, and that Severn! vessels xvere nearing her to capture and siwe her crew, signal xvas made to cease tiring. The Oregon having prox-ed X'nstly faster than the other battleships, she and the lirooklyn, together xvlth the Texas and another vessel xvhlch prox'ed to be your llagshlp, continued xvestxvard In pursuit nf the Colon, xvhlch had run close In shore, evidently setk Ing some good spot to beach If she should fall to elude her pursuers. Tbo I'lii'siilt of the Colon, This pursuit continued with Increas ing speed In the lirooklyn, Oregon and other ships, nnd soon the Brooklyn and the Oregon xvere xvlthin long range of the Coi,in, xvhen the Oregon opened tire xvlth her 13 inch guns, landing a shell close to the Colon. A moment nftcrwards the Brooklyn opened tiro xvlth her eight Inch guns, landing a shell Just ahead of her.-- Several other shells were Ilred at the Colon or In range of the Brooklyn's and Oregon's guns. Her commander, seeing nil chances ot escnpe cut off and destruc tion awaiting his ship, tired a lee gun and struck her Hag at 1:15 p. m., and ran aslwire at a point some GO miles xvest of Santiago harbor. Our Hngshlp xvns coming up rapidly nt the time, as xvas also the Texas and Vixen. A lit tle later, after you arrival, the Cristobal Colon, which had struck to the Brook lyn and the- Oregon, xvas turned over to you as one of the trophies of this great victory of the squadron under your command. During my olllelal visit, a little Inter, Commander Katon, of the Itesolute, ap peared and reported to you the pres ence of a Spanish battleship near Al tares. Your orders to me xx-ere to take the Oregon and go eastward to meet her, and this xvns done by the Brook lyn, xvlth the result that the x'essel re ported as the enemy xvns dlscox-ered to he the Austrian cruiser Infanta Maria Teresa, seeking the commander-in-chief. I xvould mention for your consider ation that the Brooklyn occupied the most xvestxvard blockading portion, xvlth the Vixen, and being mure direct ly In the route taken by the Spanish squadron, xvas exposed for some min utes, possibly ten, to the gun tire of three of the Spanish ships and the xvest battel y at a range of 1,500 yards from the ships nnd about 3,000 yards from the batteries, but the vessels of the entire squadron, closing In rapidly, soon diverted this lire and did mag nificent xvork at close range. I have never before witnessed such deadly and fatally accurate shooting ns xvas done by the ships of your command as they closed In on the Spanish squadron, and 1 deem It a high privilege to com mend to you for such action as you may deem proper the gallantry and dashing courage, the prompt decision iuhI the skillful handling of their le-spcctlx-o vessels, of Captain l'hlllp, Captain Kvans, Captain Clark and es pecially of my chief of staff.

Since reaching this place and hold ing conx-ersatlon xvlth several of the captains, viz., Cnptuln Kulate, of the Vlzcnya, nnd the second In command .of the Colon, Commander Contieras, 1 have learned that the Spanish ad miral's scheme xvns to concentrate all lire for a while on the Biooklvn, and the Vlzcaya to ram her, In' hopes If they could destroy her the chance of escape xvould be increased, ns It xvas supposed she was the swiftest ship of your squndron. This explains the heavy fire mentioned and the VIzcaya's no tion in the earlier moments of the en gagement. The execution of this pur pose xvns promptly defeated by the fact that all the ships nf the squadron ad-x-anced Into close range and opened an lnlslstlbly ftnlnus nnd terrific fire upon the enemy's squadron ns It xvas coming nut of the harbor. I am glad to say that the Injury supposed to be below tbe xvater line was duo to a xvater X'alx'e being openou from some unknown cause and Hooding the compartment. The Injury to the belt Is found to be only slight nnd the leak small. I beg to enclose a list of ofllcers and crew xvho participated In the combat of July 3, 1S9S.

Sir: 1 have the honor to report that, nt 9:30 a. m., yesterday, the Spanish tleet was discovered stundlng out of the haibor of Santiago de Cuba. They turned to the xvestxvnid nnd opened flic, to which our ships replied x'lgor nusly.

The two remaining x'essels xvere now some distance ahead, hut our speed had Increased to 1G knots and our lire, added to that of the Brooklyn, soon sent another, the Vlrcayo, to the shore In llames. Only the Cristobal Colon xvas left, and for n time It seemed as If she might escape, but xvhrn xve opened xvlth our fnrward turret guns and the lirooklyn followed she began to edge In towards the coast, and her capture or destruction xvas assured. As she struck the beach her Ilag came doxvn and the Brooklyn signaled "cease tiring," folloxvlng it xvlth "Congiatu latlons for the grand victory; thanks for your splendid usslslance." The Brooklyn sent a boat to her, and xvherj tlio admiral came up. xvlth the New York, and Texas, and Vixen, she xvas taken possession of. A prize crew xvns put on board from this ship under Lieutenant Commander Cogswell, the executive olllcer, but before 11 p. m., the ship, xvhlch had been filling In spite of all efforts to stop leaks, was abandoned, and Just as the crew left she xvent over on her side. I cannot speak In too high terms of the bearing nnd conduct of all on board this ship. When they found the Oregon hnd pushed to the front, and xvns hurrying to a succession of con flicts xvlth the enemy's vessels If they could be overtaken, and xvould engage, their enthusiasm xvas Intense. As these x'essels xvere so much more heavily armored than the Brooklyn they might hax'e concentrated upon and ox'erpowered her, and consequently I am persuaded that, but for the xvay thu ofllcers and men of the Oiegon steamed and steered the ship nnd fought and supplied the batteries, the Colon and perhaps the Vlzcnya xvould have es caped. Therefore I feel that they ren dered meiltorlous service to the coun try, and xvhlle I cannot mention tho name of each offlcer and man Indi vidually, I am going to append a list of the ofllcers, xvlth the stations that they occupied, hoping that they may be of service to them should tho claims of others for advancement nbove them ex'er be considered.
