THE BATTLE OF MANILA—ADMIRAL DEWE Y’S SQUADRON SWINGING AROUND THE ELLIPSE. FROM HARPER'S

The Battle of Manila.
1 ’ A certain dramatic interest attaches
to- Dewey’s recent victory in the Paci-
fic, due' to the remoteness of the scene
of the battlehand- to the great difficulty
cf: communication: with it. In these
days of the .telegraph and other nu-‘
merous facilities for instantaneous
transmission of news, it seemed strange
toiwa’it for a report from’ Manila as
long as London did'for tidings of? Tra-
falgar. Such a delay, coupled with
the. vagueness of popular knowledge
regarding the Philippines, clouded the
afiair for a time in a romantic mist of
unreality. .
'Now, however, we are beginning to
receive the reliable accounts of eye-
witnesses, andhre able to form a truer
idea of the happenings of that - historic
lst'of May. The accompanying picture
is a reproduction of an illustration'fiin
Harper’s'Weekly, which was elaborated
_by W. A. Rogers from a sketch by John
T.M’Cut‘cheon, who was on the revenue
cutter McCulloch during the fight. It
represents the line of United States
cruisers swinging into action otf Cavite,
headed by the intrepid commodore on
his flag-ship, the Olympia, and is a
vivid and accurate portrayal of a scene
which will ever be remembered with
patriotic pride by all Americans.
It is hard to predict the ultimate re-
sult of the work of Dewey’s guns in
driving another wedge into the. com-
plicated and portentous question of
foreign domination in the East, but the
immediate effects of his victory we can
all see in the world’s recognition of the
efficiency and strength of our new navy,

Was there ever a married woman

she threw'over in order to accept the

the military forces have not landed.
The alteration of the army and navy
authorities is now centered upon the
various phases of the Santiago expe-
dition. The consultations between Gen-
erals Shatter and Garcia and Admiral
Sampson and the-iranangements for
unloading and landing the (troops from
the transports are being hourly re-
portedto Washington, and the plan of
sending the supplemental army from
Newport News to-da’y is being pushed
with necessary haste and vigor. It is
hoped by the administration that~these
troops under General Dufl'jleld and Gen-
eral Garretson will not be needed by
General Svhtafter in this work of capt-
uring Santiago, but lit is thought to be
absolutely necessary as a military
measure to have them on the ground
in case an unseen and unexpected em-
ergency should arise.
Little or no concern is occasioned in
W’ashin-g-ton over the reports from Eu-
ropean sources that the Spanish gov-
ernment has appealed to or will appeal
to the powers on the ground that the
Cuban blockade is ineffective. Naval
officers here make light of the’ claim
and no information as to the purposes
of Spain is in possession of the state
department.
Secretary of the Navy Long, more-
over, authorizes the official statement
that the ports which were mentioned
in the president's proclamation as sub-
ject to blockade are tightly closed.
“As tight as wax," the secretary says,
and adds: “I am confident 'that on
ships have been able to enter Havana,
even while the larger vessels of the
navy have been at Santiago, unless,
perhaps, a few small schooners may
have slipped in a: night. I am sure
that the harbor ol' Cienfuegos, as well
as that of Havana, is absolutely closed.
Probably at other places along thé
coast some small vessels have been
able to run in and cm. but these are
small towns, against. which ,a. block-ads
has never been proclaimed. I am cer‘:

The Privileges that American Wheelmen
Have in Europe.
The privileges 01' American wheel-
men in Europe are likely to be consido
erably curtailed.
It seems that English and American
members of the Touring Club de
France, who go cycling in Italy, are
allowed to take'their wheels in tree of
duty, on presenting their cards on
membership. ' - ,
Each wheelman receives, at the tron—
’ tier, 3 pass good for six months, which
he is to give up on leaving the country.
The Touring Club becomes responsible
for each tourist so doing, and it the
pass is. not turned in within the six
months it has to pay about 50 trance
duty on the careless member’s wheel.
There are 2,000 English members of
the club, and so many of them have
involved it in expense through simple
heedlessnesse by not returning their
passes, that there is danger that the
guarantee may be withdrawn alto-
nether.
In that case the many thousands at
French members, as well as a. consid-
erable number or American ones, will
have to pay duty on their wheels when
entering Italy, getting it back when
leaving the country.
