He sent “The Maine,” an American battleship, on a friendly mission to Cuba. It was blown up on the night of February 15, 1898, in the harbor of Havana. This did not sit very well with the United States, and on April 25 Congress declared war. “Re- member The Maine” became the bat- tle cry of an angry nation.

Spain did not agree so the Spanish-American war followed. ‘When the war broke out our Asiatic squadron was in Hongkong, seven hundred miles from the Philippines.
