AH IMPRESSIVE SCENE
With Bare Head Capt. Philip's Men
Offer Thanks to God.
The closing scenes of the great sea
fight between the Spanish and Ameri
can warships was moat impressive.
The fleet Spaniard, the Cristobal
Colon, led the Americans a 'merry
chase, but sbe bad no chance. The
Brooklyn gradually forged ahead, so
that the escape of the Cristobal Colon
was cut off. The Oregon waa abeam
of the Colon then, and the gallant Don
gave it up.
At 1:15 be beaded for the shore, and
five minutes later down camo the
Spanish flag. None of our ships were
then within a mile of her, but her es
cape was cut off. The Texas, Oregon
and Brooklyn elosed in on her and
stopped their engines a few hundred
yards away.
Commodore Schley left the Brook
lyn io a small boat and went aboard
the Cristobal Colon and received the
surrender. Meantime the New York,
with Admiral Sampson on board, and
the Vixen were coming upon the run.
Commodore Schley signalled to Admi
ral Sampson:
“We have won a great victory, de
tails will be communicated.”
The victory certainly was Commo
dore Schley’s. Then for an hour after
the surrender in that little cove under
the high hills jqas a general Fourth of
July celebration, though a little pre*
mature. Our ships cheered one anoth
er, the captains indulgsd in. compli
ments through the megaphones, and
the Oregon got out its band, and the
strains of the Star-Spangled Banner
echoed over the lines of Spaniards
drawn op on the deck el the last of
the Spanish fleet, and up over the lofty
green-tipped bills of the Cuban moun
tains.
Commodore Schley, coming along
side the Toxas from the Cristobal
Colon in his gig, called out cheerfully,

“It was a nice fight, Jack, wasn’t itT”
The veterans of the Texas lined up
and gave three hearty cheers and a
tiger for their old commander in-chief.
Capt. Philip called all bands to the
quarter deck, and with bared head,
thanked God for the almost blood Issa
victory.
"I want to make public acknowl
edgement here,” bo said, “that I be
lieve in God the Father Almighty. I
waijt all you officers and men to lift
your bate and from your hearts offer
silent thanks to the* Almighty.”
‘All bats wore off. Tbeer was a mo
ment or two of absolute silence, and
then the overwrought feelings of the
ship’s company relieved themselves in
three hearty cheers for their beloved
commander.

Our volunteer troops who are to be
sent to Cuba will be at a disadvantage
in a battle with the Spaniards, ob
serves the New Orleans States, because
they will be armed with the old
Springfield rifles. This gun does its
work when the bullet reaches its mark,
but unfortunately, the range of it is
comparatively abort. The Maueer
rifle, with which the Spanish troops
are armed, has a range of 1,800 yards
or more. The Springfield is not good
for much beyond 1,000 yards. It
seems like suicide to send men into
battle when they most be under fire
for a distaaee of 800 ek 1,000 yards
before they can reply, but that is what
we are doing with the volunteers on
tbe way to Manila and with moat of
the army intended for Cuba.
