ti ) Commodore Sehhcy mid Captain Bob
Evans , In the cabin of tbo Iowa yesterday ,
"t could ave gotten away. My orders to
concentrate fire on the Brooklyn were car-
ricd out , but your ship has a charmed life , "
end the sad-faced admiral , wIth tears in his
eyes , added : "My career Is ended. I
shall go back to Spain to bo kIlled or die
iii disgrace. "
Comniodoro Schley put out. his hand and
rested it Ofl Cerwera'a shoulder. lie speaks
perfect Spanish , and the liquid ] anguago
flowed easily as ho said : "Admiral , you
are a bravo man , and coming out as you
did In 'tho face of mm. superior force is hilt
an exemplification of ( lint bravery. Your
country can but do you boner. "
The story of Cervera's attempt to escape is
an Interesting one and is told briefly by
the ciommander of the frigate Adolpho Con-
trorez , a pri.soaer on board the converted
yacht Vixen , taken off the atLleshIp Cris-
tobal Colon. Chief EngIneer SaufozI B.
Moses of the VIxen acted as interpreter for
the correspondent or the Associated Press ,
the conversation being In the international
language of the navy , French. Commander
Centrorca told the interesting atory :
"It Is not true that the heavy ships drove
us out. Besides the accident to tbo Relna
Mercedes. we had no casualties. The dynamite -
mite shells of the Vesuvius did no damage
except to terrorise t'eplc. A shell did not
strike Smith Cayo at all , but. hit near the
base. We arrived in Santiago harbor on
May 19. Wo did not know that our whore-
ubout. were a secret. We made no attempt -
tempt to hide or covoiiip our plans. We
simply took easy stages to get to Cuba. It
was frightfully hot In the harbor and ive
suffered greatly. We made no attempt to
got out and did not use our rapid boats , as
till our machinery was defective and we
were trying to repair 'It. ' The frequent
bombardment o 'the ' American ships re-
suited in quite a loss of life , but. did little
other damage. The battoriei were not
harmed to ny extent. It Is not true that
we dismounted our ship guns. The Rclna
Mercedes' guns ivero all In the forte when
Commnodoro Schicy arrived. On Saturday ,
May 28 , we got word that Schley hami heft
rome poInt near Cienfuegos for Santiago ,
and we started to get out. The news had
come too late , as Sebley had left a couple
of his hlps 'to ' tct as decoys before Clen-
fuegos and in the meantime had come down
here.
"On Sunday morning , tay 29 , we found
Sehley blocking our way. It wan then

wo stayed.
"What about the Ilobson expedition ? "
was asked.
" \Vell , wo were very much surprised , and
at first alarmed , believing that a torpedo
attack was going on. Time shore batterIes
opened up and the ships used their rapid-
fire guns. The dynamos were not goIng ,
however , and we liati no searchlights , so
that we could not find the Object. We did
not sink the Merrimae with our batteries or
our mines. It sunk Itself with Its own br-

Hobson aimnhing in the entrance anti try-
lag to get out to sea. lIe hind cii a life-
preserver and when picked up asked that
they save hits companions. This was done ,
all of tim men being In the water anti not
on a raft , a' hiss been said , "
When Ccntrorcs began the most interest-
tag part of his narrative , that relating to
the movements of Cervera , lie said : "Ad-
mlral Corvera , after tiio arrival of a great.
American iheot , dm1 not behievo it. wise to
go out and try to fight IL lIe argued that
the best policy for the fleet was to hold the
harbor against time enemy and ho ready by
an enfilading fire over the hill to drive
back the juvadlug army. At first tlmo peopie
in Santiago believed this the best plan , but
provisions ran shy , anti dispatch after die-
patch caine from MadrId. It was found that
public sentiment demanded a naval battle ,
On Saturday a conference was called on the
Maria Teresa and all the oiflcers were Inres-
cot , Admiral Cervora announced his iuflea-
tton of going out , and it was decided to go
out that night. Just after dark , when the
ships lund gotten their uncimors up , beach
lights were seen on the western hill , and it
was decided that the American fleet had
been warned of our intention and would
close in oum us. In additIon to that. It was
found that this searchlights flashing in the
entrance from the American ships would
prevent us steaming by the Merrlrnac wreck ,
which was a very narrow channel , It was
afterward , too late , learned that the supposed
signal lights vere Insurgents burning up
block houses ,
"The order of coming out and the tactics
to be employed vere these : Time Maria
Teresa , carrying Admiral Corvera's flag ,
was to go first and was to be fohlowei by the
Vizcaya , the Oqucndo and 'the Cristobal
Colon , The torpedo boat destroyers Furor
and Pluton were to come out last arid run
inside of the ships. w'uich were to bug fhe
shore to the weSt. The west end of the
blockading station was chosen becuso It
was thought that the Brooklyn , being light
in proteCtion , would ho the easiest. to sink ,
anti as it was fast , would be the best out of
the way , "
Thou one of the oilier offlcors addetit "V'o
never thought. tIm Brooklyn's battery was so
terrible or that it would attempt to fight.
all of us , It was a frightful sight. when
all its guns were going. "
Continuing , the commander said : " 0mm
Sunday morning time lookouts reported that
Sunmlsy morning th lookout reported
that the Massachusetts , Now Orleans
and No , , York wore not In sight , and
It wnts concluded that It was a good
time to maIne the atarL Wo were
the last ship out and we saw at once
that the Brooklyn , Texas anti Oregon were
doing dreadful work with time two leading
ships. That is all know of the battle , cx-

thirteen-inch abel ? from the Oregon
hit us i the stern. t'o saw no other ships
than those In time last two hours , but we
had to make such a long detour in going out
that we thought best to surrender. "
Ho waited a moment and said : "Brazzey's

knots , but It was doing more than that
when It. chased us. "
All of the omccra captured were pretty
well broken up over the affair. They said
they haul ant heard from hiomno for three
