CALL BUREAU, WELLINGTON HOTBL, WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.—Unless Admiral Dewey should call the matter to the attention of the Navy Department it 1s not Mkely that any officlal attention will be paid to Naval Constructor Hob- son’s statements this morning relative to the sinking of the Spanish fleet in Ma- nila y. It was pointed out that Lieutenant Hobson referred In the Interview to the vessels which were repaired at Hongkong, and which were the Isla de Cuba, Isla de Luzon and Don Juan de Austria. In his report of the_ battle Ad- with the General Lezo, Marqués del Dse three vessels had been burned along miral Dewey specifically stated that theuro, El Correo, Velasco and Isla ds Min- danao. The admiral stated that the Reina Christina, Castilla and Don Ant Ulloa had been sunk. The late Commander Wood, who commanded the Petrel in the battle, In his ra port sald the Isla de Cuba, Isla de Luzon and Don Juan de Austria wers aground and full of water when they were fired. Thelr outboard valves wera opened and the ships allowed to fill. The breech plugs of the four-inch guns had been taken off and could not be found. By the testimony of the America commander, therefore, the Spaniards were responsfble for the sinking of t! named. Department officlals say the fact that the Spanish officers destroy thelr own ships does not detract from Admiral Dewey's conduct of action, as was the practice of the American gunners thas forced the enemy’'s men-of-war ashore. Whether Admiral Dewey will bring the matter to the attentfon of the de partment is not known here, but as Hobson appears to be correct in his c slon it is doubtful if the department will feel disposed to take any action. orla MEYERS & (0, SPEGIALISTS FOR MEN.
