MILES' CONVOYS.
Washlnirfon, July :i.-Concerntng tho
navnl convoy of General StlleV oxpe
dltlon to Torto Rico, tha navy department
tonight made puhlic the following iaio-
menti
Admiral Stimpnon telegraph thl after
noon to the ecretar)' of navy llltt
thero ha been no delay In furnishing an
ample convoy to Oeneml Mile. A day
or two ago tha Cincinnati -nJ Now Or

Columbia and Ynlo, currying troop are
both powerfully armed, nys the admir

voy for hi expedition, ami to effect hi
Inndlnif. The Annapolis, Wasp, and Ley
den have been ordered from Nlpo. tho
aiouceter alo Is added, and threo monl-
tor ordered from Tampa. Under those
clrcumstnnccs there certainly has been
no Inrk of nnvnl assistance. If General
Miles preferrol to wait tho delay was
his own. ltowever, In further answer to
hi request, the Mnssaihusotts and Dlxlo

prohaibly started.

th olDrlal account of the latest naval
victory, that at Manianlllo, modestly told
I by Commandfr Todd of the gunboat Wil
mington, In his report to Admiral Samp
son: At 7 o'clock on the morning of July IS
the vesM-ls on the Mockade In this vicin
ity, the Wasp, Helena. Scorpion, Hist,
Hornet, Wampatuck. Osceola, approarhej
the harbor of Manianlllo from the west
ward. At ":) o'clock the Wilmington
and Helena entered the northern chan
nel toward the city, the Scorpion n"'
t'oola, mltlchnnnel, and the Hist, Horn
et and Wampatuck south, the movement
of the vessel being so timed as to brlnir
them within effective range of the ship
ping at about the same moment.
At 7:M fire was opened on tho shlprtns,
and after a deliberate fire lasting about
two and a half hours thiv Spanish trans
ports, the El Gloria. Jose Garcia, and La
Purl.ilma Conception, -were burned and de
stroyed. Tho Tontoon which was the
harbor guard and atorcshlp. probably for
ammunition, -aa burned and blown up.
Three gunboats were destroyed. One
other was driven ashore and sunk, and a
third was driven ashore and Is believed
to have been disabled.
"Tho fire was maintained at a ran go
which is believed to be beyond the range
of the shore batteries. It wa continued
until after gradually closing In, the In
shore batteries opened firo at compara
tively short range, when the ships were
recalled, the object of the expedition hav
ing been accomplished and the Ideas of
the commander-in-chief carried out, as I
understood theim, that Is, to destroy the
enemy' shipping but not to charge the
field batteries of the forts.
"No caauaMles occurred on board any
of our vessel. Great care waa talten In
directing the Are that as little damage
as possible should be done to the ctty It
self, and bo far as could be observed,
little, If any was done. The Spanish loss
Is believed to have been In the neighbor
hood of 100 killed. The gunboats destroy
ed or driven ashore were the Del Gado,
Guantnnamo, Ostralla, Contlnola, and
Guardian."
Tho committee appointed by Admiral
Sampson to examine the wreck of the
Relna Mercedes reports that the vessel
can probably be raised and added to tho
American navy. Her guns have been re
covered by tho Iowa.

THE CUBANS AT SANTIAGO.
A Cabinet Officer Says They MIsunder

New York, July Zt A special to th
Times from Washington says:
A member of the cabinet speaking
about the unfortunate attitude of the Cu
bans at Santiago, says tie fears that It
would take time to correct the misappre
hension of the Cuban insurgents that th
United State proposed to erect a minor
ity government wherever the United
States forces overcome the Spaniards,
"Cuba," this- gentleman -Mid, "would

President' message and abide by It if

WILL BOMBARD MANILA.
Mnlla. July IS, via Hong Kong, July
21. Unless the Spanish surrender in the
meantime Rear Admiral Dewey will bom
bard the fortifications and the city of
of Manila and take possession immedi
ately. The first regiment Is already In the
field at Taranque, two miles from Man
ila. The Spaniards are reported to have been
buoyed up by the hope that the Spanish
fleet, due here on the 16th, would arrive
soon, but the news of the destruction of
ivrvem's squadron brought yesterday by
the Japanese cruiser Nanalwa may lead
them to surrender. The Insurgent are
constantly harrasslng the Spaniards on
both sides of -the city, but they are
checked by the big guns of Malate and
San Mlsa fort.
AMERICAN FLAG HOISTED.
Hong Kong, July 21. Letters received
here from Cavlte, dated July 19, say that
the American transports have hoisted the
American flag on an Island supposed to
be Watts bland. General Agulnaldo has

A Cavlte letter dated July 17 says Gen

MONTERAY HEARD FROM.
Washington, July 21. The navy de

received at the department from the
captain of a vessel when she touched at
Honolulu.
OREGON'S WHEAT. .
Portland. July 21. The Oregonlan will
say that the most conservative figures on
the season's surplus of the wheat crop
in the Columbia river basin and the Will
amette valley are 1,030,000 tons. These are
based on last year's actual surplus, the
known increased acreage this year over
last and the firstrate condition of the
crops now under harvest.
It Is estimated that 23,000.000 bushels of
wheat will seek export through Portland
this year. This will place Portland at
tWa head of all ports of the world In
wheat exports.
"BULLDOG" OF THE NAVY.
REBELS FORCING SPANISRII BACK.
London, July 21.-The Times correspon
dent at Cavlte telegraphing umlor date
of July 17 says:
"I visited the rebel Intrenchmonts,
which are less than a mile outside the
Spanish lines at Malate, I found the
rebels well armed. They are provisioned
with Mauser rifles and have two Hold
pleoes. They are gradually forcing the
Spaniards back. .
"Tho Spanish prisoner are well treated
by the rebels, but they are all terribly
Lieutenant Harrtson, of tho Oregon, on
That Ship's Great Performance.
New York. July 21.-Lieutenant W. H.
Harrison, of Washington, an officer of the
battle ship Oregon when she made the
15,000 mile-trip around the Horn, Is In the
naval hospital In Brooklyn, with his hear
ing almost destroyed.
"At the first bombardment of Santiago
Lieutenant Harrison was In charge of
the after 13-Inch turret on the Oregon. An
S-lnch gun was fired directly over his
head and the concussion was so great
that the drum of his left ear was broken
and his right ear seriously injured. He
has a long furlough and has made ar
rangements to undergo a course of treat
ment with a specialist.
The Oregon," said Lieutenant Harri
son. " Is the bulldog of the American
navy. We fellows who were on her in
tho trip around the Horn had no idea
that tho whole country thought we might
bo slaughtered by the Spanish fleet. I
tell you, sho is a wonder and alone would
have given Cervera's whole fleet a lot of
work to do. In tho race after the Span
ish fleet we began at the tall end and at
the end only the Brooklyn was ahead of
us."
"The Oregon simply went by the Span
lards, peppering every vessel with shells
until he got up to the Colon, which wa
tinue to be misgoverned by Spain. 8paia
will have to go. but the President ha
plainly notified Cuba that there shall be
no mlfgovernment If It can be prevented,
and It will be the duty of the United
States to make good Us assurance to
the world."
"The President In Cuba and Porto Rico
will depend greatly, it is evident, to mem
bers of the administration, upon the cor
dial co-operation of the people of thosa
islands with the United States tn the de
termination of this government to fre
them from Spain's corrupt and backward
control.
"If the Cubans persist In bringing on a
contest with the United State in the de
termination to admit no participation by
Spaniards in the government of the Island
and a condition of rebellion against the
United States is maintained. It H not con
sidered improbable that the island will
continue to be disturbed for year by
revolution."
"What would be the answer of ths)
United States to the powers," thl mem
ber of the administration sked, "If at the
end of two years of strife between the
United States and Cuba, the power
should step In and assert that they could
no longer suffer the Interruption to busi
ness, the destruction of life and the dis
turbance of other peaceT"
While less trouble is looked for In Porto
Rico, It ts conceived to be possible tnat
the native Porto Rleans who share the
Cuban aversion for Spaniards, may de
velop a like hostility to the forces and
rule of the United State that seems to
be developing In Cuba.
Very little dependance ha been placed
upon the Porto Rleans. The United State
government expects to provide such
government for that Island as good Judg-
