Twenty Thousand Wanted by Merritt This
Number “'1“ Be Given—News from the
Other Side Conflicting—No Fear ol

oAmerican Because of Selfish Interests.
Washington, June 13.—The latest ,ad-
vices from administration circles are
to the effect that there is no intention
of letting go of the Philippines as a
condition of peace, nor is anyone so
optimistic as to predict an early term-
ination of the war.

That there is a fixed determination
to hold the Philippines now seems ap-
parent. It is two days. since General
Merritt was quoted as having said:

“\Vha: the navy has taken the army
will hold,” when discussing the situa-
tion at Manila. ’

Yet not even a qualified disclaimer
has been put forth to these significant
words of the military governor of the
Philippines, and the general disposi-

dcgree official. It is not impossible that

this terse statement by General Mer—

ritt was put out as a “feeler” to learn
whether the country would look
ably on a “colonial policy.”_

This view of the matter seems borne
out by events following the speech at
the San Francisco dinner. Major Gen-
eral Merritt wants more troops. He
has been in communication with VVash-
ington on the subject and has the as-
surance that additional forces will be
granted him.

The work of organizing the engineers
and signal corps for Mani
‘ceeding slowly, as not enoug
be found. 7 So far only tw
have enlisted. Fifty men are ”vaunted
in each corps, and as California can-
not Supply them, Major Thompson has
telegraphed East asking for volunteers.
Major J. F. Bell, engineer officer on
Major General Merzitt’s staff, and chief
of the bureau of information of the
-Philippine expedition, has received or-
ders to leave for Manila. Tuesday. He

‘ will depart on the llrst transport and
will be accompanied by a large corps
of afiistants.

News from the other side is about
equally satisfactory and unsatisfac-
tory. That coming [in the latter cafe—
g‘ory is a report from Shanghai that
the extension of the Hong Kong boun—
dary has been signed at Pekin. lf'this
is correct, it will affect American dis-
patch vessels as the new boundary em-
braces Kowloon and Mirs bays, thus
necessitating a new base in Chinese
waters, which will be more distant.

Encouraging news. which more than
offsets this is to the effect that the
much talked of Cadiz squadron need be
feared neither in the Philippines nor
in the [We-st. Indies. This information
come-s in the following dispatch dated
at Lisbon Saturday: - _

“Captain Aunxon has stated he would
not leave Cadiz until the fleet stated,
and that he will remain aboard the
flagship Pelayo until out of sight of
land.

“It appears that the cruiser Alfon-
so XIII is not serviceable, being so
defective that she has been nicknamed
in the navy the ‘sarcofago ambulan-te’
(the floating coffin).

The condition of the Pelay-o is very
dubious.

“It is significan that the Portuguese
papers are friendly to Spain. Under
the present circumstances it is gener-
ally recommended that the latter coun-
try sue for peace.

“Vi'ithout any doubt the public sen-
timent in Portugal is anti—American.
The press, without exception, takes the
side of Spain, and it does so reflecting
popular opinion, which favors Spain
from causes of race, religion and ex-
tensive intermarriage.

“The commercial world is anti-Amer—
ican because the war stopped imp-or-
ant financial negotiations pending and
which were calculated to extricate this
country from the terrible condition in-
to which its monetary affairs have fal-
len. Ever sin.;c the war began ex-
change has been getting worse and
worse.” '

; AoMIRAL SAMPSONfS REPORT.

 

Bo Extojs the Bravery of Batman and
His Mon.

Washington, June 13.-The navy de-
partment has posted the following bulg-
letin giving a detailed, official report
from Admiral Sampson upon the hero-
ism of Lieutenant Hobs-on and his men
in sinking the Merrimac in the Santi-
ago channel: . ,

United States Flagship New York,

’ Off Santiago, June 3, 1898.

Permit me to call your special at-
tention to Assistant Naval Constructor
Hobson. As stated in a. special tele-
gram before coming here, I decided to
make the harbor entrance secure
‘ against the possibility of egress by
Spanish ships, by obstructing the nar-
row part of the entrance by sinking a,
collier at that point.

Upon calling upon Mr. Hobs-on for
his professional opinion as to a sure
method of sinking the ship, he mani-
fested the most lively interest in the
problem. After Several days’ consider-
ation he presented a solution which he
thought would insure the immediate
Sinking of the ship when she reached
the desired point in the channel. This
plan we prepared for execution when
we reached Santiago. The plan con-
templateda crew of only seven men
and Mr. Hobson, who begged that it
might be intrulsted to him.‘ The anchor
chains were arranged on‘deck for both
the anchors, forward and aft, the plan
including the anchoring of the ship al-
most automatically. ,

As soon as I reached Santiago and
had the collier to work upon, the de-
tails were completely and diligently
prosecuted, hoping to complete them in
one 'day, as the moon and tide served
best the first night after our arrival.
Notwithstanding every effort, the hour
of 4 o’clock in the morning arrived and
the preparations were not completed.
After a careful inspectlon of the final
preparations, I was forced to relinduish
the plan for that morning as dawn was
breaking. Mr. Hohson begged to try
it at all hazards,

This morning proved more propitious
as a prompt star-t cc old he made. Noth-
ing could have been more gallantly ex-
ecuted. We waited impatiently. after
the firing by the Spaniards had ceased.
When the men did not reappear from
the harbor at 6 o’clock I feared that
they had all perish-ed. A steam launch,
which had been sent in charge of Na-
val Cadet Powell to rescue the men, ap-
peared at this time, coming-out under
a. persistent fire from the batteries, but
brdught none of the crew. A careful
inspection of the harbor from this ship
showed that the ‘W-imac had been

-_........___.. . .. _..._.....

sunk in the channel.

This afternoon the chief of staff of
Admiral Cervera came out under a flag
of truce with-a letter from the admiral
extolling the bravery of the crew in an
unusual manner. I cannot myself too
earnestly express my appreciation of
the conduct of 2dr. iiobson and his gal-
lant crew. I- venture to say that a.
more brave and daring thing has not;
been done since Cushing blew up the
Albemarle. ,_

Referring to the inspiring letter
which you addressed to the officers at
the beginning of the war, I am sure

reward to -Mr.1Hob:-:on and his compan-
10115.

I must add that Commander J. M.
Miller relinquished his command with
the very greatest iuctance, believing
he would retain his command under all
circumstances. He was, ho'Wever, final-
1y convinced that the attempt of an-
other person ‘to carry out the multitude
of details which had been in prepara-
tion by Mr. Hobson. might endanger its
proper execution. I therefore took the
liberty to relieve him for this reason
only.

There were hundreds of volunteers
who were anxious to participate; there
were 150 from the Iowa, nearly as
many from this ship, and large num-
bers from all the other ships, officers
and men alike.

Bald Defeated McCarthy at St. Louis.

St. Louis, June 13..—Eddie Bald, the
world’s champion one m-llebicycle rid-
er, defeated Charles McCarthy, the St.
Louis champion, by straight heats in a.
match race at Athletic park, Saturday
afternoon. There were to have been
three races, but Bald won two straight,
so the third was not run. Willi-e Co—
burn paced the first race .on a single,
and Bald won easily by three lengths.
Time, 2.07 1-5. The second race was
paced by a. tandem ridden by Tom Co—
burn and Ernest Stacie. Bald won by
a length in 2.01 1-5.
