"The German admiral protested, and insisted that German ships had a right to enter the harbor without being searched, a claim which Admiral Dewey ; declined to reeogniz. "It is reported that Admiral von Die drich, who is in command of the German squadron at Manila, Interviewed Captain General Chichester of the British cruiser Immortalite as to what he would do if the Germans interfered with the bombardment of Manila.

Admiral Dewey sent a messenger to the German admiral recently to inquire whether America and Germany are at peace or war. If they are at peace, he demanded that the German warships here pursue a different course. If they are at war he wanted to know it, so he conld govern himself accordingly. Admiral Dewey waa prompted to send this peremptory message by the action of the German cruiser Irene in preventing an insurgent attack npon the Spanish garrison at Subig bay, which greatly displeased him. Admiral von Diedrichs, in command of the German fleet in the Faciei tic, returned an answer which was apologetic in tone, and waa satisfactory. But afterwards he sent to Admiral Dewey a note, saying that he objected to the Americana stopping German ships which have been in the bay once and been visited. The German ships have made a practice of coming into Manila and then making trips outside the hay, cruising among the islands and returning In two or three days. The German contention is that a ship should not be stopped after the first time. WILL STAY AT SEQUOIA. I'tsh's Cavalry lluys In gi Into (snip for the Bummer. San Francisco, July 20.
