SEA POWER ILLUSTRATED.
Spain's navy is virtual.1? gone.
Two Spanish armored ships remain
which are at sea, but are understood
not to be in the best condition.
The torpedo boats distributed among
Spanish ports are not worth much
for resistance to a 6trong fleet. They
are too frail to go into a general en
gagement except by a quick dash,
and all attempts of the kind in the
present war have met with disaster.
A phase of the conflict is reached
in which we can send a strong squad
ron to the coast of Spain. - Its busi
ness there will be to fight the best
fleet the enemy can organize; to
seize a Spanish harbor for further
operations; to capture ships, compel
commercial lines to suspend and to
strike at all exposed points on the
seaboard. Unless Spain can deteat
or drive off our squadron, the king
dom will be in a condition of semi-
blockade. Neariy ail the foreign
trade of Spain is conducted on the
sea. TLe presence of a hostile fleet
along its long ocean boundaries will
cause heavy loss, to say nothing of
the general feeling of impotence and
humiliation.
To avoid these grave results Spain
may decide to sue for peace before
Commodore "Watson's fleet can cross
the ocean. The colonies would be
surrendered without extensive army
operations. Sea power would then
have decided the whole issue. It is
necessarj' to bear in mind that the
army campaign at Santiago was de
signed to solve a naval problem.
The first necessity of the situation
was to dispose of Cervera's fleet.
The approach of our land batteries
forced the Spanish admiral from his
place of refuge and sent him to his
doom.
That great naval exploit, which
will always fill a remarkable page in
the world's history, in turn lightened
the task of the army. Spain has no
ships left to defend or supply her
colonies. To relinquish them is her
only course, Havana, therefore, as
a sequel of the naVal battle at Santi
ago, may fall without a shot, passing
out of Spanish hands along with the
whole of Cuba, and Porto Kico as
well. The key to this result is the
complete mastery of the ocean
against' Spain. The fears of Cadiz,
Barcelona, Cartagena and the Cana
ries may settle the war. Sea power
has not been overestimated.
Elements of discontent will exist
in Cuba after the Spanish flag comes
down and the Spanish troops are
withdrawn, but the protectorate of
the United States will manage affairs
with a firm hand. Every Cuban
seaport will be controlled by our
navy and by sufficient garrisons.
The Spanish volunteers who live on
the island and the convicts organized
as Spanish guerrillas are not compar
atively numerous and will be under a
crossfire calculated to bring them
into quick subjection.
Nearly all the native Cubans want
peace and a chance to build up the
industries of the island. "When the
Spaniards go, the fears of the timid
will vanish and business men turn to
the future with confidence.
To say that the war was practic
ally settled when the Spanish fleet
was crushed may be assuming too
much, but. the present outlook war
rants the opinion.
One of the signs of prosperity is
the revival of railroad construction.
The estimate is that 160,000,000 will
be expended ou the new roads in
1898, the largest showing since 1893.
The conviction is growing in
Spain that a tremendous mistake was
made in courting war with the United
States. Even Spanish foolishness
can be modified with 13-inch guns.
The courtesieswe are now extend
ing to the Spanish prisoners of war
ought to go far toward cementing
those' ties we heard so much of dur
ing the World's fair year, but have
since been somewhat shattered.
It takes some time for a Spanish
general to make up his mind after he
discovers that he has a mind to make
up. .
