Battle for Cuba Libre a Victory.
Key West. Fla., May 5. Admiral
Simpson has bombarded, silenced, and
pretty well destroyed the Spanish batteries 1
in position and in course of construction at,
the entrance of the harbor of Matanza.s.
He did it with the flagship New York,
the monitor Puritan and the cruiser Cin
-1 iuuati. Not one of the American ships
was struck, the Spanish gunnery being
wild.
I here are no means of knowing the
number of dead and wounded on the Span
ish side. It must be considerable.
While the New York, Puritan and C'tn
einati were reconnoitering in force for the
purpose of locating and destroying the for
midable defences being constructed, the
flagship was fired on by t te batteries on
Point Uubalcava and Point .Maya, guard
ing the entrance to the harbor.
The New York replied, firing her forward
8-inch gun on the port side. She steamed
boldly in between the batteries and soon
blazed away with both broadsides at them.
The Puritan steamed in behind the New
York and engaged the fortification on Point
Maya, while the New York went to star*
board close tip to the land and poured her
shells into Rubalcava. The Cincinnati,
which had remained well astern under 01-
dcrs, signalled for permission to engage,
ami received it, and soon was tiling her
guns at the fort on the west side of the
' ' 'j|
ADMIRAL SAMPSON.
The batteries fired explosive shells, and
most of them fell wide of the mark. One
burst just beyond the stern of the New
York and a grapnel shot exploded above
licr.
It took the three ships just eighteen
minutes to silence the batteries. The last
shot that, was fired by the Spanish came
from Point Rubal Caya. The Puritan re
plied with one of her 12-inch guns. The
shell struck the battery with wonderful ac
ciiraev and blew up a portion of it.
After waiting in vain for the Spanish to
renew the engagement the ships withdrew,
leaving both batteries in ruins.
Garcia soi/.e* a ( uliihi Town.
Key West, Fla. General Calixto Garcia,
lho insurgent commander, has occupied the
town of Bnyaino. It is situated sixty miles
imrihwasL of Santiago de Cuba, and lias a
population of seven thousand in times of
peace. General Garcia issued a proclama
tion declaring that the property of Span
iards and tlu ir civil rights would be re
spected, with the result that business went
on as usual and tranquility prevails there.

A Great Naval Battle Fought
Off the Harbor of Manila

Blown Up.

Command ot Commodore Dewey, En

COMMODORE DEWET.
London, May 6.—The United States
squadron in Asiatic waters completely de
feated the Asiatic squadron of Spgin in the
harbor of Manila, in the Philippine Islands,
Sunday morning.
All the news of the great naval battle
thus far received is coming from Spanish
sources. This shows conclusively that
Manila has not yet been taken by the
American forces and that the cable lines
are still under the control of Spain.
From the fact that even the advices re
ceived from Madrid show that the Ameri
can warships fared the best, there is hard
ly any doubt that when complete details
are obtainable it will be learned that it was
a crushing defeat for Spain.
During the two engagements that took
place Commodore Montojo, commanding
the Spanish fleet, lost three of his largest
aliips. His flagship, the steel cruiser Reina
Christina, and the armored cruiser Castilla
were burned, and the cruiser Don Juan de
Austria was blown up. The other Spanish
vessels were badly damaged. One report
adds that several of the ships were sunk by
their commanders to prevent their falling
into the hands of the Americans.
There was a heavy loss of life among the
Spanish. Captain Cadarso, commanding
the Reina Christina, was killed. Commo
dore Montojo, commanding the fleet, shift
ed his flag from the Reina Christina to the
Isla de Cuba, a much smaller steel protect
ed cruiser, just before the Christina sank.
The blowing up of the Don Juan de Aus
tria was attended by great loss of life
among the crew, her commander also being
killed.
Commodore Dewey's squadron, leaving
Subig Bay, a few miles from Maniia, about
four o'clock Saturday afternoon, proceeded
toward Manila. Under the cover of dark
ness ho entered the harbor, the batteries
located there announcing his arrival.
Both fleets lined up for battle about day
break Sunday morning. The guns of the
American war ships began firing 011 the
fortress of Cavite and the arsenal of Manila.
Under the protection of the guns of these
fortifications the Spanish warships opened
fire 011 the American fleet. For several
hours the harbor resounded with the roar
of guns, the crashing of steel and timbers,
the shrieks and groans of the wounded.
A well directed shot reached the iron
cruiser Don Juan de Austria, a vessel of
eleven hundred tons. A terrific explosion
j followed and the ship was blown up
| The American squadron about nine
o'clock drew off to the west side of the hay
and took refuge behind some foreign ship-
I ping. The ships had evidently suffered
i considerable damage. After some hasty
| repairs they returned to the conflict. Dur
ing this engagement the guns of Cavite
! maintained a steadier and stronger fire up-
I on Commodore Dewey's ships than in the
I first engagement, but the American guns
j were being used with telling effect.
As the smoke lifted it was seen that the
flagship Reina Christina was on fire. The
, vessel was completely burned. The cruiser
: Castilla, next to the flagship the largest
and most powerful of the Spanish squad*
ron, was also burned. The cruiser Don
Antonio de Clio and the Mindanao were
also badly damaged in this encouter.
1 That the American squadron received
severe damage in the engagement cannot
1 be doubted. Early reports had it that live
■ of Commodore Dewy's ships had been
sunk. Later advices from Madrid put the
1 number at two.
1 There were undoubtedly heavy losses in
1 men on both sides. Due apparently trust
worthy report states that the Spaniards
had two hundred killed and four hundred
' wounded.
| Trustworty details of the American loss
of life will hardly be obtainable until Com
modore Dewey lias taken Manila or has
sent a vessel with despatches to Hong
I Kong.
Cut OfT New* for Havana.
Key West, Fla.—The Engraciawas cap
l tared off Cabanas, not off Cardenas. She
had on board a crew of seven men and a
cargo of fish. The men had been in the
Spanish Navy. The officers of the, New
port say the capture is an important one
. because the little vessel was attempting to
I carry into Havana news of tin. movement
I of the United Sutea fleet.
f CRISIS IN MADRID."** 1
Martial Un Proclaimed in the Spanliib
Capital.
Madrid, May s.—The Civil Governor has
just caused to be posted 011 the walls of the
Home Office a proclamation intimating that
the civil officials have transferred the con
trol of the capital to the military authori
ties, who are now responsible for the main
tenance of order.
General Daban, commander of the First
Army Corps, has therefore .assumed the
reins. Military patrols are out, and the
police and gendarmes are also under mili
tary control.
This measure is the direct result of the at
titude of the Carl ists and Republicans.
The spirit of false elation, based 011 the
Ministerial misrepresentations regarding
the battle at Manila, has yielded to great
indignation now that the facts are seen in
their true perspective. The people have
become fully aware that the Spanish squad
ron lias been lost and that the situation is
hopeless. They expect momentarily to
hear that Manila has been captured and
that the Philippine islands are in the hands
of the enemy.
.A nut Iter Large Prize.
Key West, Fla.—The gunboat Nashville,
that fired the first shot ot' the war when
she captured the But-uu Ventura, is now
coming to Key West to report the capture
of a valuable Spanish mail steamer. On
boarding the prize the Nashville found that
she was the Argonauta, a mail steamer
from Havana, hound to Cienfuegos with
mails, despatches, etc. Among the passen
gers were General Vincente tie Cortejo and
his staff, in all ten officers, with 100 sol
diers and ordinary passengers to the num
ber of two boatloads, men, women and
children, say thirty in all. They were put
ashore, but the General and his staff were
detained as prisoners of war.
Spain'* Floet May Interrupt t lie Oregon.
Washington, 1). C.—The naval experts
have reached the conclusion that the Span
ish fleet which sailed from Cape Verde
Islands last week is bound for the north
coast of South America, its chief purpose
being to intercept the Oregon and the
Marietta, which were joined by the Nicthe
roy, the torpedo cruiser purchased of the
Brazilian Government Plans are being
devised to head off the Spanish warships
and give them a battle they are not count
ing upon.
XewftpHp<*i-M Cry for Hoveiige.
Madrid.—The newspapers express a de
termination to avenge the defeat of the
Spanish fleet. The conduct of the Span
ish Admiral in sinking the remnant of his
fleet in order to prevent its capture is high
ly extolled by the press. The Imparcial
advises the Government to arm all the
available shipping and convert the vessels
into an auxiliary fleet for the purpose of
capturing and destroying American mer
chant vessels.
Two Maxim Guns for the Yule.
New Haven, Conn.—The committee in
charge of the fund v/hich is being raised
among the Yale men to purchase a gift for
the cruiser Yale announced that it has de
cided to present to the cruiser two Maxim
guns. It is understood that a fund of $5,-
000 will be raised. One-half of this sum
has already been subscribed.

AMERICANS IN PERIL.
The British Consul in ClenfuiM Cable* for i
a Steamer to Take Them Away.
Kingston. Jamaica —The British
Consul in Clenfuegos. Cuba, has cabled
to Mr. Dent the United States Consul
here, asking him to send a steamer j
there to take off citizens of the United ;
States who were unable to get away
when Consul General Lee departed. He j
states that their lives are in danger. I
Ho declares that Owen McGarr, who
was Consul at Clenfuegos, did not give
sufficient notice to his fellow country- j
men. He asks that they be taken to
Jamaica or a United States port.
Mr. Dent is as yet unable to charter j
a ship. He has asked his State De- !
partrneut for authority, but has re
ceived no reply.
Spanish Credit is KxliHiinted.
Washington, D. C.—Spain's financial I
condition is a matter for worry in
Madrid and a matter of satisfaction in
Washington.
Official information has reached the
State Department from its representa
tives in Europe that notwithstanding
the strenuous efforts made by the
Sagasta Ministry to negotiate a loan,
absolute failure has been the result.
Furthermore, the officials have been
informed that Spain can get no credit,
although she had endeavored to buy
supplies on time.
This information is of the utmost
Importance and the poverty of Spain
will undoubtedly have a great effect
in hastening the war. Of course, the
authorities do not anticipate the early I
close of the struggle, for they believe
It will last many months, but they ap
preciate that it will be impossible for
Spain to long continue the fighting
without funds.
Spain Kead.v to Mnke for Peace.
Madrid—Senor Silvela, in a speech
which has made a profound impres
sion and is regarded as marking a
turning point in Spanish politics, de
clared that as the Cuban problem was
now reduced to a question of "honor
for the Spanish arms." it behooved
Ministers to assume without hesitation
the responsibility of deciding when the
point of honor had been sufficiently
satisfied. When that time had been
reached, he said, it would be time to
appeal to the European powers so that
they could decide what ought to ha
done to restore peace and determine
the fate of Cuba, because all the pow
ers were interested in Cuba's future.
Post offices Will Sell Bonds.
Washington, D. C.—The Revenue
1)111, which was passed by the House of
Representatives last week and will
probably become a law within the next
ten days, authorizes loans aggregating
$<500,000,000. It is the intention of the
administration to make this a genuine
popular loan, as far as is possible.
The bonds are to be sold through the
post offices, and every effort will be
made by the government to put them
in the hands of the people rather than
! of the banks.
| Cuban Cenoml to .loin tlic Admiral.
Key West, Fla. —General Emilio Nu
nez, the noted Cuban leader, arrived
here on his way to meet Admiral
Sampson.' He comes on an important
mission and probab'y will be sent out
to the fleet on one of the torpedo boats.
He probably will land in the night
on the coast of Cuba. His staff offl
' cerß will accompany him. Senor Jose
d'Armas, a secret agent of the Cuban
Junta, is here on other business con
nected with the insurgent army.
Capo Verde Fleet to Bombard Our Portr.
Paris—The Eclair reports that an
Autonomist Deputy to the Spanish
Cortes, from Havana, says:
"The Spanish squadron which has
just left St. Vincent contemplates the
bombardment of an American port.
"It is not likely that there will be
a fight in Cuban waters, Havana be
ing amply fortified to resist the Ameri
; can fleet."
Mud rid 1* Excited.
. Madrid—The town is greatly excited
by the serious news from the Phillip
pines, and there is an immense gather
ing in the Calle de Sevilla. The civil
guards on horseback were called out to
preserve order, and all precautions
have been taken. There is much mut
tering. but up to the present nothing
serious has occurred.
VgiCHlltH Not Cut to Dentil.
Key West, Fla.—There is no truth
whatever in the report of the execu
tion last evening of Jose Yglesias, who
is under surveillance on the monitor
Puritan as the result of suspicious be
havior near one of the magazines last
Wednesday evening.
! He has not even been placed on
trial.
" And Then IflU Pipe Went Out."
Havana, Cuba.—lt is rumored that Gen
eral Parr ado lias finished a complete plan for
reconquering Florida. It will be presented
to the other generals for their opinions be
fore it goes to General Blanco for final ap
proval. Part of the army is being organ
ized for the invasion of Florida.

REDUCE HAVANA LATER.
Invasion of Cuba Delayed Until the
War Ships Which Sailed from St.
Vincent Are Disposed Of.
Attack Planned Before They Reach a Coal-
Station The Armored Vessel* ot the
Blockading Squadron, Reinforced by the
Plying Squadron, Now Preparing for the
Naval Battle That Will Follow Ocean
Scouts' Report*.
Washington, D. C., May s.—Spain's fleet
in the Atlantic must be annihilated before
an attempt is made to capture Havana.
This is the conclusion arrived at by the
War Board, and it is probable that the
naval engagement will be fought between
tlie Spanish fleet now on its way across the
Atlantic and the armored vessels of Ad
miral Sampson's command, reinforced by
Commodore. Schley's flying squadron, be
fore any steps are taken to land an army of
invasion on the island of Cuba.
The policy of the administration will be
to make the campaign against Havana short
and decisive. In order to do this an ade
quate land force must have the co-opera
tion of all of the armored vessels that can
be brought into service for the bombard
ment of Morro Castle and the other de
fences of Havana Harbor.
With Spain's fleet rapidly steaming west
w.trd, there would not be time to reduce
Havana before that fleet must be met.
With this fleet once swept from the Atlan
tic Admiral Sampson could concentrate for
the attack upon Havana an overwhelming
force.
Captain Sigsbee, of the St. Paul, and
Captain Wise, of the Yale, have the ad
vantage of knowing the direction in which
the Spanish fleet sailed, and this will be of
great advantage to them in locating it upon
the ocean, as its approximate speed is
known and its probable location at any
given hour can be figured out. As soon as
one of the auxiliary vessels sights the fleet
and ascertains its location and direction
the commanding officer will proceed with
all speed to the nearest cable station and
communicate with Washington.
The movements of the lighting fleet un
der Admiral Sampson wdl be governed by
this information. It will be his object to
give the enemy battle Defore they can reach
either a coaling base or strike any Ameri
can point toward which they may be
headed. If two of the scouting vessels
should fall in with the fleet about the same
time it will be the duty of one of them to
keep in touch with the enemy and report
any change of direction that may be made
after the first vessel has left. No fear is
felt for the safety of the scouts, as they are
| all fast enough to get out of the way of the
fleet if an attempt should be made to at
tack them.
The Pari* Outwits Spain.
New York, May 4.—The fleet American
auxiliary cruiser Paris, which the Span
iards hoped to capture, steamed proudly
up the bay Saturday morning with all her
flags flying. She looked as if confident
that the reception she would receive would
be a hearty one. The steamer was sighted
off Fire Island at 2.47 o'clock, and the ob
server hastened to telegraph the news to
the tens of thousands who he knew were
eager to hear from the crack liner.
Port Culmiinai Shelled.
Key West, Fla.. May 4.—Rear Admiral
Sampson, with his flagship the New York,
has shelled and battered into fragments
the fortifications of Port Cabanas, thirty
five miles west of Havana. The fort had
fired on the Kriccson and Porter, and the
bombardment was for the purpose of
silencing the place. It took them only
i fifteen minutes to turn the fortifications in
to a mass of debris. Atone time the bom
bardment of Havana was imminent.
Spain Sees Iluln Unless Europe Saves Ker.
Madrid.—Spain will bend her every en
ergy to postpone as long as possible the
defeat she knows is inevitable. Her only
hope now is 10 prolong the struggle, for the
sake of inducing Europe's interference.
She thinks that by a heroic resistance in
the face of great odds she may excite such
admiration and sympathy as will impel the
monarchies to save her from extinction by
the great American Republic.
The Terror'* Superb Aim.
Key West, Fla.—The Terror has made
another important capture. It is the Span
ish steamer Guido, bound from Coruna to
Havana with a cargo of provisions and
money for the Spanish army. Her crew
numbers thirty-five men. When the Ter
ror fired a blank shot the Guido put out all
her lights and tried to run away. Four
shots were fired from the Terror's 0-
pounders, all of which hit the ship.
Kpanlnti Spy Caught on the St. Paul.
Philadelphia, I'a.—One of the crew of
the St. Paul, which is being fitted out as an
auxiliary cruiser at ('ramp's ship yard,was
detected in trying to gain admission to the
magazine room of the vessel and is now
lying in double irons. He was first no
ticed acting suspiciously 011 one of the coal
bunkers and a guard was placed over him.
When searched drawings of the vessel
were found spcreted about his clothes
Vienna'* l>e*pond*nt Vlaw of Manila Defeat
Vienna.—A very despondent view has
been taken here since the Manila defeat.
It is believed that the Spanish dynasty is
Hearing its end, and great sympathy is
expressed for the Queen Regent in her
dire trouble. The lleutsch Zeitung thinks
it possible that Germany will secure the
Philippines in return for renouncing her
claims upon Samoa.
