" 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.

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.
