The situation in Manila bay after Ad miral l>ewsy's May day victory was ap prehensive. Th® formidable German lleet assembled thers soon after und the Spanish had an army of 14,000 men at Manila. Opposed to the«® fores« was Dewey'« squadron manned by 1,4(H) men, with reinforcement« far away over the Pacific ocean. Our admiral, however, wa« vigilant day and night. He «aw the neceasitv of his fleet remaining to pro tect Ameriesn Asiatic commerce from the II Spanish cunboats lurking in the Philippine waters after the Manila squadron was deatroye«! at Cavite. The admiral had no home is the oriental ocean but the one he had conquered,nnd there was no place to go if he left it. He was like the mas in Colon el Robert Ingersoll'« story who couldn't go any where el® Iucause “every other place was shut up “ If the admiral left Ma nila bay he must have proceeded te a coal station, and thence to another coal station, and mo on, getting only enough coal al a time to take him where he could do the same thing before moving on. Coal is as contraband as gunpow der. It was thou the German admiral l)eid- erichs overstepped, as is believed, the limitations of imperial instructions he had received and incorrectly interpreted the sentiments of th® German people. Hence (bo strained relation« that arose. Admiral Dewey finally said—not to the German admiral personally, a« the story got out, but officially tu the flag lieuten ant of th® German fleet—that interfer ence with th® blockade established by the American fleet would be an act of war. Admiral iMwey put it in (his way : “Surely your government does not pro pose tu make war upon ruy govern ment.” But if by possibility, as the course of event« would indicate, it wa« intended that “there should be war be tween Germany and the United States they could go right at it in five minutes.” rhe response from the flag lieutenant of the Geraian admiral was given with some agitation, but wa« very pacific. There was a betterment ot th® interna tional situation. When American reinforcements ar rived under General Anderson Aguinal do put himself forward «nd wanted to receive official advice« of lhe objects ol the American troop« in coming, so that ho might properly permit them todi-em bark, and prescribe th® condition« ua- ier which they could be allowed to land. When General Merritt arrived he put this sort of iru|»ertifiencH aside, and when the Ameriiau army occupied Ma alia, Aguinaldo wmn in an excessive ■late of pert liberation because he could ri’t occupy th® < ity jointly with General Merritt! Ami he thought the Americau eoinaiander-in-cbief should get out of the governor'» palace, that he (Aguinaldo/ might, a« the master of the country, oc cupy lhe ofli lal residence of thu general* in-chief Of cour»® he wa« informed teat there couldn't t>® joint occupatien of a city under martial law with an army of priaoners to watch, and the faith and honor of American arms pledged lore Mpiict property and regard personal rights, lhe next ineddle*-oinene«s of Aguinaldo was te prevent the Ameriesn | AFfuy from piucuring a pur® water «up- ply. H* ineisted for «Olli® days npon culling off the water from th® mountain stream. When informed that the water werki would be taken by fore® by the Atneriian« if necessary, naturally be got out of th® way, and then claimed to ' have “permitted’’ lhe American army to hav® water, and h® invited high cos «¡deration fur the imperial favor he had <:onferr»<i in allowing the Amer cane the list of th® water works. ¡-nathe wanted to I j ® consulted ab< ut the landing uf our tr'Xjps exf>e<ie<i to be asked for permits, and then deeired te nave It understood that he wa« Ixinefi mnt to permit eur army to supply (•- self with *hole«om« water.
