"The Ind pen-.li?e Bell" was recited by

In a dsTforvnt position. The Spaniards
had no regular order of formation and
wre unable to esoap the uuge tinders
of the Americans and w.Te soon sh t to
piece.
The night following the rngagement, he
says, was one of the most awful ever
witnessed in modern warfare. There was
not a breath of wind and heavy cloud
put an Inky darkness over eVerylhUig.
Against this dark sky was cast the lund
light of the burning Spanish ships and
forts. From time ro time a Spanish ship
wld blow up. scattering the wreckage
all ovir the bay. As the ire spread on
shore among the buildings of the arsenal
at Cavil e. a whole maxmlne would be
blown hlirh In the air. when the shells
and other explosive would burst with ,
a deaf-nlng report, making a pyrotechnic '
dlp!ay bwth grand and weird. Mr Clss- ,
says that the frightful sights r that ;
awful night made a deeper Impression
upon him than did the shock of the bat-tie.
Of the Impudence and Inlerferance of .
th German ship wlrh the American :
fleet. Mr. Clase .ays Is not fully known I
to the American people, and had It not
been for the coolness and determined
forbearanc, or Admiral Dewey a conflict i
would have surely been perclpltated be
tween the Wo fleets, for the men of the I
American ships wee wild with rage at
the conduct of the Germans and It wa:
all they could do to control themselve
Of th many Incidents In which the Ct. !
man ships showed their contempt ami
disregard of Admiral Dwey'. blockade
regulations, he tells of one In which a
German ship narrowly escaped renin
blown out ot the water. It was on a J
very cinra nigni, atmiil the time when
Admiral Camara's fleet was expected
whB suddenly there loomed up In lh
darkness the well known outlines of
man.or.wnr. Instantly all hands r. i
neat to quarters and the gnrs loa.L-d
and trained ready to fire on the instant.
The search lights were turned on th
intruder, w-rirn It ran up the German
flag and slowly steamed away. It was
nly under th strictest order, from the
officers that the men were prevented
from giving the treacherous friend a
br.iad.ld-. as a reminder that Americans
could not he run over a though they
wera s me weak European nntlon at
the mercy of Gorman tyranny. For some
time after the appearance of tn Oer.
man fleet, signals would be flashed out
at night by both the German ships and
the Spaniards In Manila, until a quietus
was put upon the Germans by the vig
orous protect of Admiral Dewey.
Mr. Clase paid a glowing tribute to
Admiral Dewey, saying he was the Idol
of his men. He said that while the ad.
mlral wis a strict disciplinarian and si.
lowed no negligence of duty, yet n tils
Intercourse wit hthe men of his fleet he
was more free than mo.t naval com.
manders and always treated hlx men
with the utmost consideration, and their
health and comfort was ever uppermost
In his mind. The admiral took the hon.
ors that have lately been conferred upon
him like a true American sailor and did
not let It turn his head, big was as fr
with both offleexs nnd men a he was
before Fame had written his name upon
her soroll.
As to the retention of the Islands by
the Vnlted States the nun of the fleet
were fn favor to a man.
Mr. Clase's enlistment expired last
